Pinkie Pie is real. Equestria is real. Friendship is real. Magic is real. It is all real.

As real as the Matrix. That was not an insult, by the way. If you have a group of people who believe in a constructed world inside their minds, that isn't any less legitimate than any other. Although, I do get annoyed at the parts of the show (such as the train station) where I can almost see the advert for a toy set play out before my eyes.

You make a very good point, and on any other day I would immediately agree with you. However, I cannot do so now, because I need to fool myself into thinking it's all real for at least a couple hours, so as to un-depress myself before I blow Ameri out of the water.

EDIT: I'm going to shut up now. Bye.

I like anthro too, because you get the best of both species. It doesn't beat pure pony.

Plenty of point to 'em, it's the same as R63. It's a big, "Well, what if?" kind of thing.

Can't decide between pony and anthro being my favorite though. I mean, furry boobies.

How do you say no?

Furry boobies are grand. That's the charms of anthro.
I like r63 because of the general lack well-developed male characters and it's funny seeing male characters with rather girly designs.

That what throws me off most about r63, is that they don't really make them masculine all the way. They're androgynous.

Most of them aren't that girly, even R63 Pinkie looks kinda masculine. But by God, R63 Cadence is the worst case of that and R63 Pinkie's name bugs the hell out of me. I mean, Bubble Berry? Really?

That is a major problem. I'll go into this thought after I watch some Doctor Who.

I do like Anthro, but it kinda annoys me how most OC Anthro characters are nothing more than sex object to the creator. I like characters to have a story, to have a personality, I like to get emotionally involved dammit!

I know, the artists have pulled of the r63 ponies. They look like stallions. Prince or r63 Cadence looks good, but the regular Cadence's design is by far the girliest. Nothing says stereotypical girly like a Pink Pony Princess. I think Jacquelindreamz's Prince Authentic looks fairly butch.

Can it be considered MLP:FIM OC, if it does have only anthro version, but not pony version? :P

I was just suddenly reminded of several "how is this even pony related" comments on the Derpibooru on some anthro only OCs. :P
