Okay, okay... I finally got around to finding out what the hell is going on around here. Not that it didn't bother me before, but now I guess I just felt un-lazy and decided to check it out. Now, I'm gonna be as delicate as possible in saying this: You need help, sir(s)(and madams, I suppose) I TRIED (emphasizing on 'tried') to watch the first episode and this is by far the corniest, most cheesy, childish thing I've seen since Teletubies(or however the f@#k you spell that) and that thing about a bloke called Spartacus. At first, when I saw the title of the first ep "friendship and magic" I thought it was a parody of some sort, you know, making fun of the whole concept of friendship and stuff, using ponies and all, that would've been cool. 2 minutes in, still holding on to the theory about the parody, but after that whole "prologue" in the beginning, the stunning realization hit me - these guys actually take this SERIOUSLY! And now, don't get me wrong. I am an anime fan, I've watched a lot of animes, and let's be frank, some of them are very... awkward. As in cheesy, childish, outright stupid. But nothing, such as this, can even compare itself in that aspect. I guess, the only way I can explain this phenomenon, and the fact that it actually became a phenomenon in the first place, is that there are too many people who have not had a propper childhood, if you get what I mean. This is just my opinion, so... you guys just wait for the big men in the white coats to arrive and take you to "The Happy Hotel", m'key...?
