I mean what the fucking fuck
>>43205023The chinese yearn for the equines.
>>43205023billion Chinese can't be wrong
Imagine General Motors presenting a Chevrolet like this. That would be the equivalent.
Why did Japan mostly ignore MLP? Did they see it as competition for manga?
>>43205023
>>43205030>mfw my car's tail gets run over
Are the Chinese voice actors of their dubbed version any good? Maybe that's part of it. VAs can make or break a show.
>>43205060skill issue
>>43205045Those disgusting japs liked eqg more.
>>43205045Someone smarter than me can probably explain it better, but I just think they're not big on animal characters. Normally when I see JP MLP fans they're also into EqG too.
>>43205030How the fuck does this tail work. It makes the car unrideable. Itll be crazy dirty in a single day.
>>43205069based japanese GODS
>>43205071>but I just think they're not big on animal characters.Yeah, Japanese can't fucking draw horses at all.Many probably tried but couldn't get it right so they just act all butthurt saying that they simply don't like em
>>43205069Well no shit. They stick animal ears on normal humans and call it a day. With EQG they won't even have to draw animal ears. Of course they'd be into that shit. No artistic challenge needed.
Knowing Hasbro they most likely slept on making a buck on this situation, am I correct?
>>43205085Ponies drawn by Japanese bronies look weird most of the time but I kinda like it.
>>43205028We yearn all for the horses, but hasbro won't deliver.
>>43205121hm
>>43205125>but hasbro won't deliver.many such cases
>>43205125>>43205092For some unknown reason Hasbro really REALLY HATES making decisions that result in happy fans giving them fuckloads of money for appropriate merch, games and a good show. Instead they're doing their best to fuck up their IP as efficiently as possible.
>>43205121Even when drawn weird, my pink wife is still the cutest of them all
>>43205187Cheese Sandwich uses 4chan?! Neat.
>>43205121aside from the Japanese shading and the ears being a little too pointy, that's a pretty spot on Pinkie
>>43205085It's very anecdotal evidence, but I'm inclined to agree just on the fact that the most popular manga and anime rarely ever use horses, even when the setting would reasonably allow it. Araki at least had the balls (heh) to base an entire part of JoJo's around them
>>43205187I'm happy for you and your cute pink wife, anon.
>>43205085What do you call this then?
They draw horses.
You even got cartoony horses.
They even have clop
>>43205234MAMA MIA
>>43205025>>43205030>>43205034>>43205038Twicar is real...That dude that made SFM vids of ponies forgetting to change their brake fluid would cream himself if he could see this.
>>43205186Why don't we just get AI to do the jobs of CEOs? After all, if the job of the CEO is to find revenue sources for the company and they're failing to do that, what are they really useful for?
>>43205224Or this?
>>43205023Kayou cards.Kayou has been making collectible cards of multiple franchises for a while now. They've got the worst things about gacha games, casinos and streaming all encompassed in these cards.They release card packs that are very cheap and full of random, common cards. And once they release another wave of new card packs, they NEVER reprint the old ones. Those cheap cards you bought a couple of? They might cost a lot more in a few months or years as they become rarer. That's why people buy them in packs, and hoard them.Not only that, they have full-on events regarding them. They have streaming channels where they do card openings in stores. You can bet on the chat as the live video feed shows what cards are opened. Store clerks are trained to be half-showmen half-streamers too, as they make a huge deal of the card openings. People congregate in real life to buy card packs, but they can also pay a little extra to have their cards opened by the staff in the livestream. If they get a rare card, they have the chance to win more packs, as do those who bet on the stream. Who can then walk to the store, show evidence of them being in the stream and guessing correctly, to earn points which they can then exchange for a prize.MLP just so happens to hit the perfect sweet spot between children show/adult collectors/autistics of all ages to fall in love with. The show is good, we all know it. And ponies have the western equivalent of moe: snowpity. Something extremely needed in a post-covid society where unemployment, hopelessness and loneliness are reaching record levels in the mainland.这真是个非常奇怪的局面。就像你常说的“瓶中闪电”一样。但这道闪电竟在同一个瓶子里击中了两次,只不过相隔了15年。哈哈 哈哈
>>43205038>no hoovesi sleep>tiresREAL SHIT
>>43205121This guy specifically just has an odd style, draws mostly barbies with a nose that kinda looks like a pony muzzle. Still pretty cute tho
>>43205502Is it really that simple? Just a line of trading cards? I was genuinely wondering what was behind fan animations on bilibili like this one, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uW102olM8AE which seem like commissioned advertisements for them if anything, but the popularity all around it seems to go beyond the cards, there's so many things in the chinese fandom we havn't even really tapped into, like the unfindable media of their stage plays and holographic live shows and such media, perhaps the trading cards are a big part of the interest in mlp in Chyna but not the whole of it
>>43205457You joke but I think the high end shareholders (the real people with power) could probably make that happen.:^|
>>43205600There's a lot of weird niche shit only available in China for a lot of franchises, including western ones. Specifically in the mobile game market, I know RWBY had one that churned out exclusive artwork.
>>43205616There's a whole Fallout game only available there. And also a Tom and Jerry gacha for some reason.
>people creaming their pants over an ev
>>43205600Holographic live shows you say? Have they made ones with EQG?
>>43205045Japan is pretty much anti-animal. They want humans with animal ears, that's it.
>>43205681Kemono exists.
>>43205636>sugar morning
>>43205729It's pretty much underground (also still humanoid).Compare it with Chinese animation, see Fabulous Beasts, etc.
>>43205729There are ten gorillion western furry games but CyberConnect2 has to churn out 20 different Naruto games to sell one furry game every decade or so at shoestring budget.
>>43205476booba
>>43205729Kemono gets frown upon among otakus like bronies by normalfags or furfags on this board
>>43205769>Kemono gets frown upon>like bronies by normalfags or furfags>furfags frown upon broniesit will never not be funny that furry r34 sites will label pony as "feral" and act superior when their own kind are more likely to rape an actual animal
>>43205780I don't know of any niche group that does not have a superiority complex.
>>43205069Two nukes were not enough
>>43205780Furry feralfags pretty much ignore ponies. At best they draw mlp griffons, but never ponies.
>>43205780Labeling ponies as feral is based. Feral is based. I'd also rather fuck pokemon in base form rather than humanized garbage. Furries all look terrible, they have no aesthetic sense or delicacy, no subtlety in their designs. It's super gross and unappealing. Kemonos are alright sometimes but as one anon said they're super rare and underground.
>>43205884Ponies are civilized, fuckwit. There's nothing "feral" about them, MLP is not LPS.
>>43205897>Ponies are civilized, fuckwitDo they worship God?
>>43205915
>>43205897The tag "feral" refers to their external body. Ponies are anthro in the sense they can talk and have a civilization but the "anthro" label they use again refers to the external body not how the character being drawn actually exists or acts. Which is weird because what line do monkeys and apes fall under? Furries man they're fuckin' WACK dude.

>>43205600MLP has always been semi-popular in China. But it's thanks to the cards that everyone gave the show another chance, and realized how good it was.
What if MLP is the trojan horse of the west?
>>43205941That pic reminds me of the classic "wtf are you doing nig" chart
>>43205960Talking to yourself? What kind of no life loser patrols the board to look for what posts have been made before? Lololol
Guys, stop it >>>/o/28928652
>>43205069So we're just talking nonsense with no proof? I've never seen any Japanese EQG fanart, but I've seen official FiM manga and a lot of cutesy fanart of the mares
>>43205023Trading cards are popular in China.Personally, I really don't get people hype this so much.I like My Little Pony because of the show, not the merchandise.I occasionally buy a plushie or two as a way to express my love towards the character, not because I see hoarding products as a replacement for having a personality (but I guess this is too hard to understand for fandom-brained people)This will not save Friendship is Magic from the evil Hasjew.If anything, it'll only taint its legacy even further by making them green-light a shitty gacha game or a crappy "anime" movie with none of the charm of the original. Yet retards will glaze them as a "return to form" because it's made in eastern Asia, and nothing bad has ever been created in those countries.Call me when something of value has been done with this IP, not to tell me about a rice farmer in the other side of the globe eating Twilicorn-themed dumplings.
>>43207082>newfagFiM stopped dead in Japan at season 3 for ages while all of the EqG movies kept going with dubs
Do we actually have real Chinese living in China on this board or are all Chinese bronies confined to their landlocked interwebs?
>>43207295Reasonable post on nu/mlp? A rare sight these days.
>>43207298They despise FiM so much that the last season they dubbed (6th I believe?) was outsourced to the cheapest studio of South Korean diaspora.
