• Nightly Roundup #366


    Time to make roundups nightly again I suppose. Yep, we're all back from the convention! It was a lot of fun and you all can expect write ups on our various antics soon. For now though, have a random royal guard and some news!


    Full Video of BronyCon Fire


    I never got to see the fire as I was by JJ's table when the fixture went loopy. I knew something was up when some of the lights flickered, but I never expected a fire! Check out the clip above to see what the hubbub was all about.

    Israeli News Site Reports on BronyCon 2012

    Looks like BronyCon 2012 has spread far and wide across the globe! A kind pony fan has taken the liberty of translating the article found here for you all to read! Check out the translation and translators notes below:
    1. Look at men that are dressed as characters from "My Little Pony".
    2. In the fan festival of the animation show "My Little Pony", thousands of people met and dressed as the cute ponies. between the fans that danced and sang songs from the show, there weren't only little girls. here, take a look at the pictures.
    3. For almost already 30 years, the characters of "My Little Pony" of "Hasbro" are starring on the children's toy shelves (and most likely, girls) around the world - but they are still receiving respect, even from the older fans that already grew up.
    4. 4,000 of those fans came to New Jersey in the last weekend, on the occasion of "Bronycon Summer 2012" - a one-day festival fully devoted to the admiration of the little ponies and the show that is starring them, that also was broadcasted in Israel under the name "Little Pony".
    5. [Video of the Intro of G3]
    6. Do you remember? The Intro of "Little Pony".
    7. The fans, who are calling themselves "Bronies", showed up in costumes of the characters. "I thought to myself, what will the people say - that's creepy, that's weird, that the show is for little girls" said a 25 years-old fan from NY to the american press AP. "But that's just a great show - from the plot to the  beautiful animation". Another 19-years-old fan, added: "I found out that there's no reason to hide that you're a Brony, people are interested in whatever they want".
    8. [The video "Best of Bronycon June 2012"]
    9. Fans in the BronyCon festival, Summer 2012.
    10. The festival, that happens once in a few months, gained more popularity since the first time it was held, in June 2011: around only 100 fans showed up - and today, we're talking about thousands. The activities that were in the place including - Singing and dancing to songs from the show, stalls selling accessories and merchandise and meetings with the voice actors.
    11. [Pictures from Bronycon]
    12. Translator's Notes:
    13. 1. All the wrong information is in the original article.
    14. 2. When they said that the show was broadcasted in Israel, they referred to the old generations.
    15. 3. In Israel, they call it "Little Pony" and not "My Little Pony", though I'm not sure if it's one of the many mistakes that they made in the article or the official Israeli name.
