I'll edit this post with the most recent updates concerning the Japanese dub of MLP:FiM as soon as possible. Check back here every now and then! Also, PLEASE tell me if any of the links aren't working or incorrect; I'll replace them ASAP!

Wow, I'm surprised this wasn't posted yet... Well anyway,

http://www.equestriadaily.com/2013/01/mlp-invasion-of-japan-confirmed.html

DISCUSS!

I, being a massive animé fanatic, fully support this (though I wonder why it took Japan so long to finally start dubbing the series). I also already know what the voices mentioned in the link sound like, so it's not gonna be too hard imagining the voices for four of the mane six. (I'm even expecting a fan-made video using the voices from the animé mentioned, so yeah )

[Midnight Breeze]

Are they the ones who decided to make Rainbow Dash male? 

[Sea Foam]

I'm more or less interested in the odd merchandise and other paraphernalia Japan'll make using pony. I:

[Rikaria]

Are they the ones who decided to make Rainbow Dash male? 

Judging by the voices, she most likely won't be.

[Billow Pillow]

How exciting!

[Book Smarts]

This might re motivate me to keep learning Japanese 

[Chishio Kunrin]

People might start importing the Japanese merch. I know I might, if they make really good stuff. Might even go up to the anime shop in my town and ask the owner if she'll start selling it.

[Jenzy]

Woohoo!

Well, the show continues to spread. And the Japanese can finally understand and experience Friendship that's Magic!


Hmmm... I have a friend learning to speak Japanese. I wonder if he can watch and understand a full Japanese episode.

[Rikaria]

This might get me started on actually learning it

Challenge accepted

[ArtVeigar]

Wow, awesome! And yea, Japaneses will surely do some awesome merchandise, that I'll import whenever I get the money to

I actually plan on trying to get a scholarship to Japan for next year, as it actually doesn't require to know Japanese, as english is enough for them, and it's good to know that, if I succeed, I'll have ponies waiting for me there too! (I say "too", but here where I live it's so unknown that it almost makes me cry :'( The only almost brony I know is one that I'm trying to bring to the herd.)

[Amber Sly]

I imagine an anime of Mlp, the huge eyes works prefectly for it The amounts of merchandise they are going to export, I hope that some of it gets here, to Argentina.

[Legulus]

OmigoshomigoshomigoshomigoshomiGOOOOOSH! 

I can not wait. I can just taste the pony action figures, pony-mecha crossovers, etc xD And of course, epic Japanese voices to make everything more dramatic!

Oh how I hope the Japanese make their own epic intro, animation, music and all. Even though I love the english theme, I would like to hear some Japanese magic here.

ALL, MY, YES!

[Midnight Star]

Ponies.. in anime style??  OMG can't wait!!!!

[Rikaria]

-pic removed due to wrong order of the seiyuus (voice actresses)-

EDIT: And while we wait, here's ogatamon's latest fandub (for those who don't know who she is, she's who I consider the best Japanese fandubber for MLP:FiM; turn on annotations for English subs!):

[Explicit Escritoire]

This pleases me. This pleases me so.

Though MLP is probably one of the only shows I can honestly say would be better voice acted in English, just because of how amazing the voice actors for it are.

And I'm excited to see what sort of borderline illegal content they make. I'm even more excited to see what kind of definitely illegal content the japanese bronies are going to make. My MLP purchases are going to go through the roof. God I need another job.

I approve of this idea.

[Detective Woona]

No idea what's going on.
I just like hearing them say the Mane 6's names.

APPULU JAKU.

[Chishio Kunrin]

*Attempts without watching the video*
Apuru Jaku! Twairaitu Sparku? Pinki Pai! Furuter Shai? Rereti? Reinbo Dashu?

Admittedly, I've watched a Japanese fandub of an MLP scene and heard that person's Japanese pronunciations of the characters' names.

[Rikaria]

I'm still waiting on an announcement for the last two voice actresses/seiyuus for Twilight and Fluttershy ._.

Anyway, Chishio: I linked that video already

[Book Smarts]

I wonder how the opening song will sound in Japanese, maybe they'll get their own special opening song like the Italians
