Well, a while ago, if i can remember, in may or june. Can't remember alot. been a while. my sister watched it while it was still in the 1st season. She was a brony for a while. (Now, she is much freaking out about anime/japanase stuff but still a brony.) and i was wondering what the hell it was. She showed it to me one day. And the first time i saw it, i thought : ''This is really girly.'' but then after a while, i was wondering if it was that good and why my sister liked it, i then started watching the 1st/2nd episode when there was a countdown for season 2. Did took me a while to start watching it. I kinda liked it.
After that, i watched the rest of season 1 episodes. I did that when the season 2 was having a countdown.
I didnt even knew about the series before. Thanks to my sister, i'm now a brony. If she didnt show me it, i'd be not.
I'd have more details but it been a while and my memory is bad.
