Japanese Pony dub, eh?
Should be interesting..........
If only to see the large influx of fanart from a new wave of Japanese Bronies.

"I hope Twilight-senpai notices me... Uguu~" ...now I'm picturing an episode where Sweetie Belle goes to Twilight to learn magic and becomes obsessed with her (like, Scootaloo to Rainbow Dash levels).

Something tells me Fluttershy or Rainbow Dash will be the runaway favorites in Japan. At least with the otaku. Mainly because the otaku tend to gravitate towards the shrinking violet and tsundere characters and Flutters is definitely a shrinking violet and Dash has some tsundere tendencies.
Though if they keep Twilight adorkable in Japanese she has a chance too.
Rarity and Pinkie have decent shots too if they make Rarity even more of a Yamato Nadeshiko(as a character trope this means a female character who behaves the ideal way a Japanese woman "should" and her prim and proper regalness has similar attributes to this trope) and they play up Pinkie's random genki girl character traits.
AJ is doomed in Japan, though.

A few MLP hentai mangas have already been made, so it's only a matter of time.

Fluttershy has "stereotypically moe character" written all over her. She'll be a huge hit among the Japanese otaku (and yes, I mean that in the original, derogrative fashion, not the westernized "big anime fan" meaning it has elsewhere.) Dash is more Japanese tomboy than tsundere archetype, though. She distinctly lacks the "dere" part.

Dash is more Japanese tomboy than tsundere archetype, though. She distinctly lacks the "dere" part. Actually she does have a dere side. Her soft side she's shown towards Fluttershy, Scootaloo, and Tank. It doesn't crop up often, though.

I'm projecting the reception for the characters with this official on TV release.

WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT LETTING THE JAPANESE HAVE MLPfim??? DO YOU KNOW HOW CRAZY THEY ARE? ?? ..... oh and as for THAT pic with the figures ..... it's probably dat PRINCESS SKYLER and not big crown thingy wearer as i originally said! and as for the "original ending" of the whole series ..... IF twilight does go full alicorn, hopefully it will now be some awful AWFUL convaluted way like celestia gives her powers for some do-or-die mission or EEEEEEEEEEEVIL like fluttershy becoming the new nightmare moon ;D THEN BECOMES THE LOVEABLE TWI-TWI everyone adores once again!!!
