I actully like the art style they're using, cool designs, but I'm against using classic characters in pre-school shows, turning them into things they may never have meant to be, and overboarding the princess thing beyond belief so it feels this girl is some icon of empty crap that's bad for kids and the original Disney princesses.

Awwww, that was really cute. The animation is not that bad actually and I really the colors. The rabbit and Sophia's voices are cute as well.

So am I correct in thinking that the Disney Princesses make cameos in this series ? And that this may be where we hear the all the new recast Princess voices ?

Than animation actually looks nice to me. Kind of cutting-edge for CGI that looks hand-drawn. The rabbit's so...black. I did not expect that.

Sofia looks way more pretty hand-drawn. I want her purple dress in my size and I would get rid of the strings of beads(?) across her chest and stomach and the ones looping around her waist.

The scary group of male rabid "MLP: Friend is Magic" fans? I know traumatic things bronies have done which shouldn't have happened in the MLP community. *shudder*
