I lost it when /b/ turned into the Forever Alone guy. This is awesome.

What is this I don't even…

dialgex said...

First, and what have I said about youtube links for mobile users?!

Imensha said...

What the hay.. that was awesome

Lunasta said...

Probably not first.

That's great and disturbing all at the same time

I think the first comments have, for the most part, ended, or maybe it's just me...

dialgex said...

Good job Seth...

lol these guys. They had the best coverage of the Australian election too. Wierd

I am so.. so very confused.

Basharoonskis said...

That was a glorious representation of the brony history.

Mivo Anajevo said...

Very...Odd but I guess it's positive about the fanbase? I think?

Laurence Brown said...

I'd be much more willing to listen about all the stupid stuff that our government is doing (bickering over raising the debt limit, which in turn looks to be helping get a world wide recession going into high gear), if it was presented in such an amusing manner.

Also, I want the power to summon rainbows that can stop pesky, irritating people.

Hey, I know this news station. Never expected them to make a report on bronies, although it does fit their style. It's the same accurate but oddly presented stuff they usually make.

Bronode said...

I love these guys. They covered the story that the British prime minister was beating people up at Westminster a while back. All news should be like this.

BlasTech said...

... wat did i just look at?

Ace2401 said...

Man, that part at the end was great. Haters will be forever alone!

Flatterscheu said...

I...

What.

RifferKyle said...

And that's how Equestria was made.

Rubidia said...

Oh my God I... Why is this so strangely awesome...? And hey, I remember these guys from when they did an episode on Song of Ice and Fire... it was equally awesome.

Also I don't really think this is from China, the Chinese subtitles were written in traditional Chinese characters, implying these guys are either from Taiwan or Hong Kong, the prior seems more likely because of certain words used.

But anyway... I had NO idea that people in Asia are this... knowledgeable about the internet... Most of my Asian friends seem pretty oblivious about most of the internet happenings, with the majority of them not even knowing what 4chan is... This was... enlightening to watch, to say the least.

Pegasi said...

NMAtv? THIS HAS TO BE GOOD

PH Brony said...

The hay was that? Still awesome though.

GrapePie said...

As much as I`d like to add my 2 cents in here, I am at a loss for words... Mind=blown o_0

Pegasi said...

Watch their take on Operation Payback, too. It's epic.

Anonymous said...

@Rubidia

Yeah, these guys are from Taiwan.

Trombe said...

I can't believe NMA did a brony report. That's just so amazingly wonderful... I... I just don't even know what to say.

Bobbyzero said...

To the uninformed. Nmatv is from taiwan. Do you really think the chinese government would ever allow the love and tolerance of ponies to cross into their borders?

Parchment Scroll said...

Oooooookay... Rainbow Dash the biker chick was... like, Sonic Rainboom levels of awesome.

Presspass said...

Well.

How can my day not be awesome after seeing that?

Anonymous said...

I should watch this again just so I can learn how to say 'Haters gonna hate' in Cantonese.

Firleycat said...

At first, I was excited but then I realized that these guys do news reports about everything. They even did one about Conan O'Brien getting a new show and did a response when Conan made his own video. Still very awesome though, Probably the best sum up of the Brony war that I've ever seen and A shout out to this place.

Cassie Truman said...

This... worries me. On a deep and personal level.

Excuse me while I curl up with a Rainbow Dash plushie and hide.

Wow, I prance around effeminately all the time. They got me on that one.

Pretty funny how accurate this is - they do know their stuff unlike other "News" companies

This is so incredibly silly.

I freaking love it, X3

DesuWarrior said...

Wait, did they just say the word "Everypony"?!
These guys really did their research.

Jay Mann said...

My favorite news story of the year!

Stephen Cawking said...

I love this strange, strange Taiwanese news show so incredibly much.

Is the 3d animation intentionally bad, ironically bad or bad due to a lack of resources? Because it's obviously not due to a lack of skill on their part.

They pretty much do their research 100% of the time, covering everything from Brett Favre sending around pictures of his penis to Lindsay Lohan's drunk driving... to bronies, apparently... with total accuracy.

They have us pegged. Right down to the "haters gonna hate" slogan we espouse. How did I not subscribe to their YT account sooner?

youtube|UsurperKingZant said...

I lost when he got forever aloned

Edinpony said...

We haven't actually left /b/ completely. There is still one "never-ending" pony thread on /b/ that is generally quite active and gets recreated as soon as it hits the image limit, much to the annoyance of many of the locals.

Alexander Gan Zhong Ping said...

@Rubidia
Excuse me? I'm from Singapore and the eight-year-olds all the way to fifteen-year-olds are quite aware of the Internet, including trolling and YouTube stars. I of course am aware of /b/, /4chan/, trolls and Forever Alone guys.

meanwhile in the uncanny valley....

Anonymous said...

ugh, they referred to us as “å®…ç”·”, which translates to otaku.

Anonymous said...

Man, I love these guys. Knowyourmeme is generally pretty accurate and funny, but these guys take it to the next level and give you the lowdown and information that really counts!

dw1482 said...

I always imagined that when I became a brony I shot rainbows out of my head and arms.
But until now I had trouble visualizing it...

Ewyndall said...

A few days ago I was thinking of trying to draw a series of images where gloomy sad internet lurkers find ponies and they turn into happy bright people with rainbows and all.

Well, they did it for me and in a lot better way than I could ever deliver it :)

Bronies. Rock on !!!

Bosstone said...

@Anonymous

Otaku seems pretty apt to me.

That was a beautiful video.

Comi said...

lol amazing !

sparklepeep said...

YES! So in the end of each of these there are two ladies. The Asian one is a brony and it's totally my fault. She's the one who wrote this. ^^

Desert Rose said...

Haha! Love the human Rainbow Dash on the motorcycle. I laughed hard.

wingbonerPH said...

Although that was really weird, I as a brony approve of this.

It isn't like Fox News or Gamepro at all!

WHY THE FUCK DO NON-AMERICAN MEDIA ACTUALLY GET IT??!?!? America, Is it that hard?

Dunno why equestria daily is there when this website is run by a fucktard ruining the brony image

Anonymous said...

Kshrike: they made some of the animation OTT "effeminate", not the same as "gay". I mean, the brony rides off with a girl on a frickin rainbow bike at the end. I think they struck a good balance of ironical mocking:

a: intelligent viewers will get that its a joke, and bronies will be able to laugh at themselves (yeah yeah, we like a cartoon for little girls, get over it)

b: "hurr durr ponies are for fags" haters will assume the worst anyway so that won't change

c: real bronies are man enough to accept gay/lesbian bronies

Rainbow Dash is cool whether she's gay or straight. (personally I reckon she's too awesome to stick to only one sexual preference)

Anonymous said...

I like the humanized Dash on the motorcycle.

HOLY SHIT THAT WAS AWESOME!!!

We NEED these guys working on a full-length 3D pony adaptation of one of the best fanfics on this site or something...

Poor troll, he got turned into rainbows.

DJ Midli said...

everything was awesome about that up until the brony sitting next ot the little girl, creepy metre over 9000 and not accurate.

Ludo said...

Lol. We're so gay XD

cameronstalker said...

China I love you so much!

Church said...

Nicely done, a bit of ribbing but generally positive.

Now, why was I not told that we all wear knee-high leather boots?!

Namefag Anon said...

yea, they got a lot of information wrong (mostly the fact /co/ wasn't even mentioned), but funny nonetheless

Dew drop said...

its sooo truuuue! 'yay'

poniki said...

...and then I said "Taiwan, are you crazy!"

Rainbow Hash said...

oh my gosh this looks like the Xavier Renegade Angel animations and sound effects!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anonymous said...

@Stephen Cawking
I read somewhere that they have a day to produce things that would normally be done in a week as it is a news show, hence the discrepancy between the potential and the product

Ficksitup said...

Hehehe. That was pretty cool. Don't know why the bronies were fruity, but this was a pretty unbiased, frank report.

I'm impressed. Loved the dancing around /b/ by the way.

...Hehe... Swamps of 4chan...

somepony said...

What did I just watch? o.0

Applebloom said...

That... was actually pretty accurate, 'cept fer the prancin' 'bout.

Vest said...

Their fairytale representation of the Bronynet with us dancing to cartoon sound effects was more accurate than the atomic clock. I'm glad that they put emphasis upon the fact that most people came to this fanbase not just because they were fans of the show, but largely because they're sick and tired of all the antagonistic rubbish that defines the 4Chan ideologue.

otaku just means regular fan of something in japanese (and I guess the ussage is the same on the rest of asia)

just outside japan otaku = fan of anime

so in that regard I don't see how we are not otakus under an asian look (news whatever)

Anonymous said...

@Namefag Anon

they got it wrong and STILL managed to be more accurate than fox news

I say that is good

They have it in English here

......................................................lolwut? No, seriously, wat?

Attention, CNN, Fox News, and everyone else: take notes. This is how news is supposed to be.

Anonymous said...

Neat video. But it is a misleading video. Lots of bronies are still horrendous trolls. :P

ToonNinja said...

Y'know, I remember undergoing some sort of transformation when I officially became a brony, but I think it involved less rainbows and more screaming in agony as my bone structure shifted and my brain was forcefully rewired. Other than that, one of the more accurate news reports on bronies. Props to NMAtv.

Eddie Perkins said...

@Anonymous

Uh, no. 'Otaku' does don't just mean 'fan of something' in Japanese. It means a freaky, overly obsessed fan of something. Most of the time, it has fairly negative connotations.

Problem, /b/?

Eddie Perkins said...

@DJ Midli

I didn't get a creepy vibe off that at all. Just looked like he was watching the show with his daughter. Or, that they were just showing the intended audience and the older male Brony both enjoying the show.

Anonymous said...

How can all of you people think this is China? This is a Taiwanese news report; China can't access sites like 4chan. Your knowledge of the world and obliviousness to culture disappoints me.

BlingALing said...

i...guess this is accurate?.... i think?

Blue Breeze said...

@DJ Midli

Not creepy in the least. Don't forget, some of us bronies got converted the way Lauren Faust intended; dads watching the show with their kids and finding it to be SO AWESOME.

Voltaire said...

I love NMA TV- especially when they do things on internet culture. I couldn't stop laughing when the /b/tard became forever alone guy.

Bahahah!! That was hilarious. And while yes, it wasn't *100%* accurate it was by far the most accurate report on bronies so far!

And obviously they have to poke fun at us too - but it's definitely not mean-spirited.

Atiarotias said...

so why is there Chinese? video about /b/ n so on...

Profesor Rod said...

>Laughing at the intro
>Running like little girls

Lunasta said...

Guys, watch the English version. Apparently the translator thinks that we are "brawnies" who created our own "internet High Qualities" to get away from the /b/tards

Anonymous said...

Wow, the boys in the video act so gay. The boots alone send a chill up my spine.

:D I can understand the language

MyCutieMarkisaGUN said...

They said "Haters are gonna hate" rofl

geronkizan said...

Well ... better than MSNBC's reporting.




(and btw the Fox Red Eye report was positive about us, god I need to get that off my chest being someone on the right and a brony. Yes, there are conservative bronies.)

Awesome video. Makes total sense!

OH SHIT SON

Anonymous said...

The "Haters gon' hate" is more literally translated "certainly not everyone is going to love Ponies".
The language is not Cantonese, but Taiwan dialect Mandarin.
They said "大家" meaning "everyone"; no special word for "everypony".
