* [[Pandering to the Base]]: After months of "PMVs" popping up on the Internet, the Hub decided to make [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTPqjKk_xCo one of their own] -- and incorporated references to not only [[Fan Nickname|"DJ Pon-3"]] but [[Fan Community Nickname|"bronies"]] as well! [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]].
** Derpy's [[Sure Why Not|Ascended Fanonization]] (having started with shirts and promos, with it all but confirmed in [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S2/E14 The Last Roundup|The Last Roundup]]) is one massive catering to the Brony community.

* '''[[Periphery Demographic]]''': And how! The very existence of this and the main page's [[Troper Critical Mass]] is evidence enough to the point where this trope is a dead on certainty. You can browse ''any'' forum and bring up this show and be nearly guaranteed that members of said forum will say that they regularly watch and enjoy the show.

But then again, having your main interest be in beating the crap out of your opponents up close and personal is probably as far away to bringing the magic of friendship as possible... and yet we have Fighting is Magic in the works...
