I'm surprised Twilight isn't one of the top three favorite ponies in Japan.

Pagetopper, yay.

I'm not surprised Fluttershy is favorite in Japan.

I am also disappointingly unsurprised that somebrony in Japan would translate Cupcakes D:

I'm not suprised at all at Japan's three favourite ponies.

Apparently, Rarity is the least popular pony in Russia.

Applejack with thick Osakan accent

Imagines AJ sounding like Kasuga Ayumu

[lol]

@Dalek: must be semi-communistic dislike of her bourgeois mannerisms.

Gasps

Mousa's a commie! [lol]

Hard for me to describe in text, Apple, you might find a video on youtube that demonstrates it better.

Buckshot

A technique used by ancient earth pony warriors, in which a boulder is kicked with such force that it shatters into a hundred shards of rock that fly towards the opponent like an oversized shotgun blast.

@ Ace

It wouldn't be like the Japanese version of the 'country' type would it?

I'm stealing that...I must use it...

They don't. It was just more convenient for me to describe it that way.

I write I could write Japanese. Would be interesting to actually discuss these things with Japanese fans. . .maybe.

It's pretty obvious that they would go with Osaka for AJ, but it really doesn't work since Osaka has more urban rather then country connotations. Do the Japanese have an accent that has a more rural connotation? I wouldn't be surprised if they did not.

Speaking of Japan I finished watching Puella Magi Madoka Magica last night. It was. . .alright I suppose.

@Kyler: this also gives a good explanation for Rock farms as a "quarry" for getting ammo for such tactics.

@Mio: Ainu accent, perhaps?

Morning, everybrony!

I think I'll skip all the pages posted since last night, there are too many spoilers... I'll watch Hurricane Fluttershy first.

@Dalek: no wonder she used to be so gloomy. Nah, I presume her family also did regular farming but was forced to focus on rock farming after parasprites ruined the normal crops.

Also, welcome back to the thread again, y'all :D

modern camo assault gear is canon in Equestria.

It was canon back in Dragonshy.

Also Ginger, Sherlock Moriarty is way better than the film one. Have you seen The Reichenbach Fall yet?

I just started watching Madoka Magica this afternoon (though I already knew the major spoiler before I started). Thanks to all you people talking about it yesterday or thereabouts. I found it entertaining, so far.

I think before long y'all will know what I mean with my avatar. It's a bit of bother to remember I can't leave myself behind, so to speak.
