I love it, but I'm not into ponies. Can we get more Yuruyuri please? Very Happy

I was hoping they'd be wearing pony costumes at some point in the video. I am disappoint.

Glad to see that they're continuing the use of the Yuru Yuri uniform in their PVs. Gives me slightly more hope that we'll see more Yuru Yuri in the future.

ANN, THIS IS NOT ANIME WHATSOEVER! Just because the writer of this article is probably a brony doesn't mean it can be posted here. Tons of american cartoons air in Japan, doesn't mean it's anime related.

It's got the Yuru Yuri cast in their school uniform singing a random JPop song. I'm perfectly fine with it being here despite having no interest whatsoever in MLP. Had they been wearing pony costumes or something then yes, your comment would have merit. But the YRYR outfits tie it to anime.

And people pointlessly freaking out about ANN posting these articles is probably why they keep doing it. After all everyone needs a way to entertain themselves.

Anywho, cute song. Works well enough for the show I guess. Not much else to say really.

From what I can tell, not among the otaku crowd.

Shocked I was fearing that's what it would be when I saw the title.

It gets low ratings and otaku don't seem to care about it.

You can't be seriously functioning right if you think MLP is an anime. Sure it's shown in Japan, but so are other Western cartoons.

To me it's all about origin, but I'm not speaking out of objectivity of course. I just like to have my rage against bronies who can't come up with proper arguments to this following assertion.

Never really got into the new My Little Pony, but I would like to see an episode or so in japanese just to see how the voice acting for the characters are.

Christ almighty people, this article is on here because of the YuruYuri connection, not the MLP one. That and it's an interest article so the site EXPLICITLY states that it's frivolous.
