Ahh, now this I can back!  All we have is Pinkie and Dash dancing for twenty-two seconds.  Perfect!

After the break.

Second. Wait... first.

NDupree93 said...

all I can think as I watch this is "Happy Happy! Joy Joy! Happy Happy! Joy Joy!"

yetti said...

true, much better

Select Few said...

I can't help but feel as if it's a commercial for some sparkly toy.

Zohne said...

I much prefer this version

Nittany Tiger said...

See. Pinkie and Dash can bake cupcakes without any violence involved.

ombutescentdin said...

Time for hours of looping dances.

Croswynd said...

Why does Rainbow not have wings in the second half? >.>

Kiwiana said...

I love that the music is from Andrew WK's 'Ready to Die'

Soulspony said...

I wonder if people will question why dash's wings are missing in the 2nd clip.

Tyranoman said...

This needs to be meme'd, Pronto.

L9OBL said...

Wayyyy better than the original lol

archiveit said...

Yep, this is now how it happened.

Soulspony said...

@Croswynd

It's explained in the full animation. hehehhehe

Sethisto said...

Pff, animation error!

Stargazer said...

Much better! This one doesn't make my morbid curiosity cringe!

Batty Gloom said...

Wait, what?

I got to be honest, I can't imagine Rainbow Dash dancing *quite* like that. But it did make me smile.

Trot Fairweather said...

If I wanted to see brightly colored ponies dancing around non-violently I'd go watch a show for little girls!.....oh...wait...

Croswynd said...

@Soulspony

I had the unfortunate experience of watching the full one already this morning. I seem to remember them dancing like that before they entered the Cupcakes scene and she still had no wings.

Of course, I could be wrong, but I'm sure as a packet of sureseeds not going to rewatch it to find out.

Sothalic said...

The original really succeeds in confusing the watchers with all the mood shifts, gotta give it that! Morbidity and hilariousness makes for a great combo!

But yeah, no links to the original here please.

masamunemaniac said...

This is better. Baking those other treats didn't seem like such a cinch ._.

Soapy5 said...

I so envy those people who think the lack of wings is an animation error. Oh ignorance is truly bliss in this case.

SuperGiantRobot said...

@Croswynd

Wings are for pussies.

Chuck Norris taught her to fly without them.

DashAttack said...

Not gunna lie, I prefer the full version. It's far too glorious to trim down.

Jimperator said...

While I like the original - this edition is more then a suitable replacement. YES TO DANCING HAPPY PONIES

Gummy said...

this version is much happier! :D

Vipera said...

Would've been better if it were the first 30 seconds followed by the first two dancing sequences.

ciepher fox said...

huh......well,.....at least it didnt make me wanna cry like that damn fanfic did.

Eclipse said...

I still prefer the original - guess I'm just weird like that.

Kieran said...

It's not working. The original already ruined my day. ;_;

Altherix said...

What's up with Dash not having her wings? ;P

Joking, saw the original, hated it, this one I can get behind.

Greenf0x said...

This whole thing got that bloody song stuck in my head, and now i like a song by Andrew WK. BUCK.

CityFlyer502 said...

I didn't know you could turn baking into a musical. LOL

Travis Smith said...

Either it's the lack of sleep or sugar crash I'm having
But the dancing is just...feels wrong

...If still haven't read it, don't
Specifically of your a fellow Dashite

Sunset Sprinkles said...

Weirdly animated, but still adorable :3

Travis Smith said...

If your a fellow Dashite, don't read it

Grammar...

Mike said...

lol, so much censor.

Is this what 4chan will be like after SOPA?

cupcakes said...

@Sothalic

watch?v=Sn81P8ihsOw

It's actually really cute. Not at all as horrible as everyone was making it out to be, but maybe I'm just not as weak as the others.

Vipera said...

@Travis Smith
Rainbow Dash is my favorite pony, but I still liked the original animation.

Didn't dig the story though.

Wazaraku F. Wa said...

Thanks for the attempt... but no. Knowing where this comes from AND know what song is playing... *shivers*

(and yes, i havent seen the original either, anything "Cupcakes" related i stay the fork out off)

Jimperator said...

@Travis Smith

I'm a Dashite. I haven't read cupcakes because I know it's just shock fiction. Yawn.

But the original animation this one here is taken from? Well even the Dash lover in me couldn't stop laughing at the cartoony, morbidly dark comedy.

JR said...

99% cleaner because half way through rainbow dash is missing her wings.

Greenf0x said...

@Travis Smith

I can only think F):E when i see the word Dashite.

Greenf0x said...

Stupid Shift key FO:E

cupcakes said...

@Wazaraku F. Wa

See, like this guy. Could you imagine a FAN FICTION ruining your life like this? I sure can't...

Travis Smith said...

@Vipera
The story only gave me nightmares for a breif time

From my pyscho side, it was very good, but it just really creeped me out other then being disturbing

Cyanide said...

Does it make me a bad person if I thought the original was funnier?

Eclipse said...

@Cyanide

If thinking that is bad, I don't want to be good.

iloveMLP said...

how the hell did you do this
but man amazing
RD and pinkie dancing is so funny

Jimperator said...

@Cyanide

The original is meant to be ironic, dark and funny.

This clean, 30 second version I think is merely meant to be cute.

Eridash Ambrony said...

Rainbow Dash's Wings are in the bowl, she detached them during the more intense dance sequence.

scienceandponies said...

I'm disappointed that it doesn't include the actual cupcake making parts. I liked the egg cracking and mixing.

Travis Smith said...

@Jimperator
You know, after watching this again. I'm now laughing at the dark humer.
If you are into the psychological stuff, I do recomend if but it's not for the weak of will

TheVampirate said...

@Croswynd
Here's a hint the animation is called 'Cupcakes', i just wish they added more of the clean parts into that. especially zombie dash dancing.

Simon o'Sullivan said...

Wait, isn't "Get ready to die" the song that's playing? Surprising. And weird. But I can wrap my head around this if RD gets her wings back.

DrProffessorMan said...

i approve of this one, the original made me die a little on the inside...

Jimperator said...

@Travis Smith

I totally dig fiction with strong psychological themes. And I have a very strong constitution for the macabre and morbid. But I didn't have to read Cupcakes to know it's just about the gore and making Dash pathetic and helpless.

I thought Rocket to Insanity had much more psychological depth, while also being dark, yet incredibly tragic as well.

coldshoulder said...

as one of the few grimdark bronies i prefer the original . . . and i prefer the fic it was based on more then that. ^ ^ i like what i like and you aint gonna stop me. lol

TheMagicalFish said...

I will forever assume that this is what happens in Cupcakes.

20% cooler said...

HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Ismaldi4ever said...

My god... Rainbows wings are missing.

Travis Smith said...

@Jimperator
Well I'm a huge Grimdark reader so I'll give Rocket to Insanity a try

mycutiemarkisagun said...

@NDupree93

FIM got me watching old Ren & Stimpy again. My God, those 1st two seasons....never before has
"children's entertainment" been so blatantly subversive and adult-aimed. Its like they put Wonder Showzen on Nickelodeon.....

HolyRayne said...

Nothing about not liking Cupcakes makes you "weak".

Jimperator said...

@Travis Smith
It's inspired by Cupcakes, and it'll make you feel really bad, for both Dash and Pinkie.

@mycutiemarkisagun
The original series was pretty subversive. But I've met so many people who thought the Adult season was part of the original show. The Adult season makes the original Nickelodeon series look like it belonged on Nick.Jr

S008 said...

That guy knows what he's doing - deceptively making the first 30 seconds adorable only to go "Cupcakes" all over it.
In other news, HA, I knew you'd post it in one way or another!

Howdy said...

Guh, keep thinking of Move Like Jagger when watching this

Jon Fawkes said...

Very cute, although after watching the original, this still gives me nightmares ._.

/me goes to cry in a corner

Michael Butcher said...

I can't stop watching o.o

Sunset Sprinkles said...

I actually wrote a Cupcake sequal to the sequal. It's 39 notebook pages long. The only reason I'm saying that is because tomarrow is when I plan to actually type it and send it to my editor. But don't judge me. I read a lot more than grimdark stuff. I just had so many ideas for a Cupcake fic, I had to do it. My friends made me.

Travis Smith said...

@Sunset Sprinkles
Looking foreword to it

@Jimperator
Okay time to find it!

Saber-Scorpion said...

@Wazaraku F. Wa
^ This guy knows what's up. ^

Do you guys know that retarded fan fiction is the first result if you Google "My Little Pony Cupcakes"? Imagine a kid who watches the show searching for that on the web, hoping for cute pony cupcakes. Yeah. Good job, fandom. You are bad and should feel bad.

Fuyons said...

@Sethisto
Someones in denial lol

Sebastian said...

I like the violent version better.

Sunset Sprinkles said...

@Travis
Awww. You'd really read it? I was thinking people besides my friends would think "Oh, God. Another Cupcake fic."
I'll get right on it tomarrow. I'm too tired now due to being on an all-weekend retreat.

Travis Smith said...

@Sunset Sprinkels
I understand, I've been around my state today for about five car shows

Sunset Sprinkles said...

@Travis
You spelt sprinkles wrong :p
And wow you're so much like Dash. Hahaha

Gio said...

La versión limpia para todos los llorones !!! :D
e_e

Travis Smith said...

@Sunset
Then I'll just call you Sunset
It would take Dash a few minutes, it took me about three hours drive for two and half an hour for the others.
But it's what you get for joining a club, but it's so fun

Thank you so much for this. I can handle this :)

Sunset Sprinkles said...

@Travis
I'm the VP of the brony/anime club at my school. I'm in the tenth grade, by the way. Is it wrong for me to have written a story that's mature even though I'm only (in March) 16? *nervous laugh*

Vipera said...

@Saber-Scorpion
Because it's our responsibility to play parent for other people's children, right?

Jimperator said...

@Saber-Scorpion

That's the one thing that I can say really is negative about the size of this fandom.

Not the fact grimdark exists. As mature themes have their place and can be interesting and provide a whole level of depth for fans to explore.

But the idea that our mature and suggestive content may spill over and expose otherwise innocent kids to it. That really sucks to me, and is the only real complaint one can lodge against bronies.

On the other hoof, parents need to monitor their kids internet use - AT ALL TIMES. No exceptions.

Wazaraku F. Wa said...

@Gio

que bonito, insultando a los que no les gusta ver desmembramientos de personajes infantiles y mas encima en un idioma que no muchos hablan aqui

beautiful, insulting to those that dont like to see childish characters been dismembered and even more annoying in a language many people dont speak here

ZuTheSkunk said...

@cupcakes
Umm, excuse me?

There are many words that could be used to describe the original, but "cute" is absolutely, totally, utterly NOT one of them.

Mister Tulip said...

I've never read the original Cupcakes or watched the original animation, and I plan to keep it that way, but based on my knowledge of Cupcakes without having read it, this video definitely fits its title.

Unknown said...

Thank you so much for this. I can handle this :)

The_Owl said...

@Saber-Scorpion

Oh wow, you're right! Hahaha, that's so delicious.

d240364e-3fe1-11e1-86fc-000bcdcb471e said...

This is the ONLY version of Cupcakes I'll ever watch....(no offense but I like to not have my mind scarred. o.o xD;;; )

Scoot said...

Censors, censors everywhere!

Original for the win.

The Troll said...

Da fuuuuu...???? Oooooooooooookayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. Well... I'll just... I mean... Good video xD

Iron Raptor said...

I saw the original and as soon as I saw the gore I shut it off, I thought I could stand it, but... no.. I'm sorry but no. Honestly, I think Cupcakes is a blight on the fandom and I really really do hope that it will become like the "arrow in the knee" meme and eventually earn the disgust of many for it's overused reference.

AJTheEngineer said...

God I shouldn't have uploaded this....

FireflyMuse said...

This is cute but I liked the original more

In fact I'm going to go watch it again for the hundredth time today

The Troll said...

This is better than the original. Oh. Wait, Cupcakes... Yeah, everything beats that out. Like Iron Raptor said. Let Cupcakes fall into the "Overused Meme" catagory. I have NEVER seen/read Cupcakes, and I never plan too.

Smugginton said...

@Eclipse
You're not the only one

Dr_Vulpine said...

I don't...get it?
Tastes like someone switched my raw cane sugar with splenda...the aftertaste of this...
I feel the need to go throw myself into the washer and dryer now. >_>

Morthgarrow said...

I agree with what a few others suggested: If this cleaner version had the first 30 seconds of the original where they were actually making some cupcakes followed by the later dancing, I would enjoy it much more. That, and it needs to loop!

Mouse said...

This is fun. But I hope this is the closest I ever get to the unfortunate side of the fandom.

ScootaRaptor said...

Really? You're going to post stuff like this, some twenty-two seconds long, but you're not going to post FimFlamFilosophy's RD Presents Rainbow Factory when it comes out?.....

Spark Cloud said...

Wait... THIS is all cupcakes is about?! Ponies have been making WAY to much of a fuss over this. Time to go read some Cupcakes!

Brian J. Nonan said...

Did enjoy the Morbid Humour of the original more though...; The animation is well done. Apparently the guy works for Hasbro, so it's nice to have more pro animator works; It gets very "Ren and Stimpy"-esque in his works so that's always a plus.

HMorris73 said...

@Iron Raptor
Funny thing is I'm pretty sure it would have died off a long time ago if not for a certain episode called "Party of One"...

CharginChuck said...

That's one hell of an animation error, but this is still superultraextremeawesomazing.

...What? not an error? What the hay do you mean by that? Of course it's an error. There's no other explanation.

Do you hear me? There is NO other explanation.

Karl N. Hauber said...

I like this, this is good. :)

metaXzero said...

It makes me sad that so many here can't take the humor of the original vid due to gore. Makes me forget about most bronies being older males.

Cupcakes will never truly fade. Unlike some overused phrase from Skyrim, it has more versatility and more ability to amuse newcomers. Always expect it to rear its head on occasion. Especially when someone makes a funny flash of it.

Altherix said...

@Morthgarrow ...and it needs to loop!

GRANTED!

Destroyer said...

Well I found my new alarm clock!

ForestRain said...

@Spark Cloud lmao! Watched this. Loved it. Watched the original animation. Quite good, actually. Morbid, but hilarious. I think I can stand the animation because it's a dark humour music video. I didn't enjoy the fanfic, however. Too real. Too gritty.

milleniummaster18 said...

Cupcakes: the Pussy Version.

You can't go wrong with the original video.

Brongaar said...

I usually dont look at Grimdark because I read the original Cupcakes.. but I perfer one of the alt endings to it as part of a horror movie. This and the 'original' animation is a silly take on that story.

Nando said...

Why do you guys keep referring to the "original" Cupcakes animation? There's like millions out there. <_<

Unless, you mean the original to this version right here - which in that case; provide link please! :D

Ace2401 said...

@Nando

Linky

Warning for gore obviously. Watch it anyway though, I'm not a gore fan but that's just awesomely funny.

Dantes_Grill said...

I was going to check the original out again just because of the dance, now I don't have to ^^

Nando said...

I'm too use to gore. Only thing disturbing was Pinkie's expressions.

Overall, wahaha. XD Hilarious. Thanks for the link.

Ace2401 said...

@Nando

You're welcome. :D

I found Pinkie's expression so over the top disturbing that they came full circle to hilarious, myself. In fact, I added the video to the "Crosses The Line Twice" TV Tropes page. XD

Onipolice said...

It would be cute if not for the original one.

Octavia said...

Aww, that just took half the fun out of it. lol Not to mention the rest of the awesome song used.

80PercentBrony said...

I've said it before and I'll say it again, that Andrew W.K. song was the perfect song choice.

Andrew W.K. is great for fun, crazy, and wild music. I often reference that Party Party Party song when somebody on Ponysquare accomplishes something big or writes "YOU KNOW WHAT THIS CALLS FOR?!"

Fun and funny music.

zibbity said...

Um... yeah. This doesn't really make any sense without watching the original animation, so I went ahead and wasted a few brain cells watching it. It was basically Happy Tree Friends but with ponies. Now that that's out of the way, I can skip reading the original fanfic entirely.

the painbow said...

@ZuTheSkunk

Uh, did you actually SEE it? Bright colors, adorable dancing, slick animation. It's cute, deal with it.

Chorizo said...

@Wazaraku F. Wa

Did you ever consider it's his native language? Don't be so xenophobic, it's rude. Also quit whining, it's embarrassing.

Magmarrax said...

I have the biggest, cheesiest bucking grin on my face right now.

Sarah.M said...

This made me smile so much

Jake said...

I apologize to any fans of particular football teams, but I played the video right after the Packers lost to the Giants.

Velvet said...

@Croswynd

@Crosswynd Rainbow doesn't have wings in the second half because in the un'cleaned' version, they get cut off between the two dances. It -is- cupcakes after all.

C-Puff said...

This kinda killed my curiosity to watch the original thing XD;; a little bit. I am trying so hard not to let my curiosity scar me for life.

Detoxicity said...

The original was better, but I suppose for all the lightweights this is an acceptable substitute.

Segatendo said...

@metaXzeroI use to think Cupcakes would fade, but then I took a *gets mobed for using overused phrase*

Segatendo said...

@C-Puff Your not the only one.

DPV111 said...

Um. Just post the original? It's bloody but there's no dialogue so it's not even as sick at the fic... which is posted here too...

faehl said...

Made me grin, but possibly just because it reminded me of Colin's Bear Animation...

Pony Rave!! wish I could join them :D

Hindenburg said...

I think we finally have challengers for Twilight's position as Equestria's most "unique" dancer!

Ten said...

What the awesome sauce!

Mason said...

aww the best part was removed

DashBoom said...

I saw the original last night and it wasn't that bad, the only thing I didn't liked was Pinkie's faces.

BTW, this is my first post en EQD :D

GardBreaker said...

Rainbow Dash's wings are missing for a reason...there was also another dancing scene, but there were more than just the wings missing...

LukeZ said...

This is just brain bleach for all those poor saps who can't stand the gore and stay up all night shitting bricks.

Also, This isn't very good brain bleach - Dash's wings are missing.

DUN DUN DUN.

Killjoy1221 said...

I saw this on reddit. It got removed right after I viewed it.

Mist Skye said...

@Nittany Tiger I much prefer them doing so with the AppleJack Daniels though...

Kreature said...

Want to drive your roommates insane?

1: Set this video on repeat on the big screen tv and hide the source
2: Walk out before they come home and come back 10 minutes after they arrive
3: Record reaction on camera as you walk in the door
4: ???
5: PROFIT!

but seriously, I now have a mental scar from this. thanks a lot

Gergely said...

@Kiwiana
That's an awesome song ^^

DemonioBlanco said...

@Sethisto
nope, in the unclean version you can see why.
wait, you are mod.....i mean yes animation error, hehe...he?

Nittany Tiger said...

@Mist Skye

Lol.

More Applejack Daniels!

More sugar!

More Rainbow Dash...

Askaniz said...

I watched the original video... I finally found a part of the fandom that I don't like...

Maggot (Ceiling Dash) said...

I can't stop watching the original! That goddamn song has been stuck in my head for two days now! GAH!

Gentlecolt said...

@Maggot (Ceiling Dash) Im having the same problem, its just too damn awesome.

ShadixCF said...

Seth you're a pansy

jwq said...

For those who didn't notice, Seth put the original animation in Nightly Roundup 216, so he did post it, even if it didn't get its own post.

JustAnotherBrony4 said...

Andrew W.K.'s Get Ready to Die...cupcakes..... I find this ironic! X3

F7 said...

The guy claims to be an animator at Hasbro. What?

So, I've finally decided to make a full animated mlp music video. (Took about a week to make)

No, I haven't read Cupcakes

Ravklof said...

I read cupcakes I kinda liked it only gave me 1 nightmare I will never ever dare try to watch the animation!(PS: I'm 10 years old.)

Ravklof said...

@Ravklof(PS again I also read rocket to insanity like that to)

sophia said...

Ok--The reason Dash doesn't have wings in the second half of the clip is because pinkie sawed off her wings. If you see the entire thing, the third time they dance, Rainbow has a carved-out stomach-It looks considerable thinner and when she stands up, it appears its been sewn together

WHISPER119 said...

if you read/saw the fanfic before it was removed,its from pinkie cutting them off@Croswynd

MetalBeerSolid said...

This version is just a bastardization of the original.

HeshieokFasla said...

>implying the video wasnt removed.

Stormcloud said...

Mother of God... Rainbow Dash has no wings in the second part. PINKIE WAS ALREADY HALFWAY DONE.
