MLP: FiM

excellent animation my ass

these ponies walk like at-ats

what was this shit done in, flash?

Actually it is done in flash. Interestingly enough, this is one of the reasons why one background character became so popular that she'll become an actual character in the second season.
 
isn't this a 4chan meme or something?

Yes and no

It was "discovered" by 4chan after the first two episodes, and pretty much 95% of the people who have heard of or watched the show learned about it through the related meme.

It's better than pretty much any cartoon shown these days. Most have unmoving background characters, some just have shitty backgrounds, and some just don't have any background characters. For the most part, the movements in the show are all legitimate horse movements, with joints bending correctly and whatever. TV Tropes has more (a lot more) but if you control-f "shown their work" you'll see that they did a pretty good job without actually watching a full episode.
 
i haven't watched anything about this but i can already say that the original my little ponies was cute and awesome and perfectly catered to my little girl mind back then. my grandmother used to tape it for me, BOSS

edit: watched a bit of one of the episodes, and it's already trying too hard to have that 'sassy girl attitude' with the characters but still be disgustingly adorable. it's like any of the disney shows anymore, terrible
 
Well duh #az I mean the proportions aren't exactly close to those of a horse's either. There are fucking unicorns and every pony has crazy coat colors like purple and green. Point being it's a cartoon and it's not going to reflect reality.

The animation is still decent, although I wouldn't necessarily place it as a selling point of the show. It's still pretty great compared to some other stuff, though.
 
the art style is pretty cool and stuff but i can't really get bothered to actually watch episodes.

is anyone going to argue it would dramatically increase the quality of my life?
 
No wonder! I was starting to wonder why so many users had MLP avatars...
If I was younger i'd definitely watch it though, it looks surprisingly good.

no, the point is animals should move like animals if you want to call the animation decent, let alone great or w/e it was in the op

the animation is shoddy
 
the show itself is pretty good but what I really like is the character designs and art style. was it really made in flash? o.o
 
my little pony is about five times manlier than pokemon.

it's still pretty lame, i'm just saying. gotta keep it in perspective here.
 
Watched the two pilot episodes. I'd say the show is alright, animation is pretty good and it's got better writing and humor than most cartoons that have been released these days. Not really dying to see it again, but it's harmless enough.
 
Which episode did you watch?

twenty two or twenty three or something?
it was the one with the princess and such, phoenix I think. I watched the pilot and some other one but didn't make it through before I got distracted by skateboards.

Bird in the Hoof, then. Pretty decent episode. You should try Swarm of the Century or Bridle Gossip next.
