Well....That was certainly and interesting April Fool's joke. Got a chuckle out of it.


Like, don't underestimate my power man.

Well that was certainly something. 

It would be pretty cool to see a magical girl transformation mlp anime but this is the closest we have come so far.

(Still waiting for Japan to take influence from EQG to make a magical girl anime from MLP/EQG a la PPG to PPGZ.)

Its a fan made joke,,, ya i fell for it too

 

It was also a meta-joke, because it was uploaded in an unofficial youtube channel doing reuploads and localizations in german of some of the official releases of The Hub / Discovery Family; (making it look like a leak or pre-air of an intended real propaganda in the real channel).

 

Not falling with the "April 31" joke again!.

The HUB used to put out these official gags in years past and it was only speculated that DF may or may not (Obviously not) keep the tradition.

 

So my first gut reaction was "okay DF "did" create the gag. I knew it was a gag from the get go (the April 31 was a dead give away) but in viewing the content, my mind was "What!, Hasbro approved THAT???" even as a gag that was beyond borderline but i was okay with it because "Anime" does it all the time.

 

So i was convinced that Hasbro/DF really went there.

 

Then i started looking deeper at the artwork "And I was like, That art looks familure! I know ive seen it somewhere. Did Hasbro get a guest fan artest? (And it still hadnt dawn on me at this point)

 

It took a bit of digging but i got the correct conclusion but yes, i was in it hook, line, and sinker that Hasbro/DF had made this gag promo.

Honestly I could tell it was fan-made right away, and not because of the fan-service aspects or because I'd seen the art before (which I haven't). The animation is fine for a little fan-made clip, but MLPs animation doesn't even look that low-quality in its toy commercials. Can't fool me this time :P

 

(I feel ridiculous making a serious comment right now...)

As we are done with April Fools Day it's time to do some cleanup. Thank you all for participating and just having fun. That is the point, afterall. :)

 

With that, closing this one.
