Shippony is coming / 舰马到来

 


This is NOT my idea. This is Zero’s.

You guys hear me? 

不是我的主意。是零火的。

你们听到我说的了吗?

Okay. Honestly, in principle, I actually don’t have anything against MLP. Quite the contrary. Um, how should I put it, I thought the animation was actually very impressive, and for a kid’s show, it’s actually pretty good…

好吧。说实话,就原则上来说,我是实际上并没有任何理由反对《我的小马》。恰恰相反。嗯,我该怎么说呢,我想小马的动画是实际上非常令人深刻,自然是就一个儿童节目来说,它真的非常棒……

Yeah this was really a case of Zero going, we should do something for April Fool’s.. 

Me: Sure! Let’s do something.

Zero: How about ponies. Shipgirls … but ponies!

Me: That’s kinda silly. 

Zero: Mogen we do shipgirls. Literally turning things of metal into cute girls. We’ve done everything from politics to cuisine to vaguely metrosexual fashion designs and cartoon ponies are “silly” to you??

Me: …

Me: Y’know what. 

Me: Yeah, you go ahead and do that.

The rest is history. 

所以这真的零火的想法,我们应该在愚人节做点什么……

我:当然!我们来做点什么。

零火:小马如何呢,小马舰娘!

我:那听起来有点蠢欸。

零火:莫根我们创造了舰娘。字面意义上的把钢铁变成了可爱的少女们。不仅如此我们还做了其他奇怪的事情,从政治到美食再到暧昧的都市潮男时尚设计,而现在卡通小马对于你来说“有点蠢”??

我:……

我:你知道吗。

我:诶,你放手去做吧。

其他的部分就你所知道的了。

Seriously don’t ask me to explain. Send me questions. I will ask Zero for you. 

认真的说,别期望从我这里得到什么解释。不过你可以向我提问。我会帮你向零火转达这些问题的。

Here’s some choice words from the man himself:

Happy April Fool’s everyone. I’ve always thought ponies are kind of interesting. Mostly because from a creator’s perspective, I’ve seen a LOT of derivative and creative works involving them. Like, a lot of them are really strangely creative, drawing references from a lot of other popular franchises. Like, for instance, Warhammer 40k ponies and whatnots…

So this time I thought, let’s do ponies too! I want to have fun as well. Then I found out from Morgane that pony fans, or “bronies” as they’re known sometimes, have a really interesting reputation. Is this true? Are they really as what she says? 

In either case, this is only batch #1. Yup, we’ve got more in the works…

这里有关于他的想法一些节选

各位愚人节快乐,一直觉得小马很有意思,也经常看到有很多奇怪的粉丝创作。譬如什么战锤40K小马或者……还有什么来着,我记得有看到很多不同的。

一直都觉得很有意思,想要参与这一场狂欢中。于是在这次愚人节,我就决定了舰马的恶搞,但似乎……莫根告诉我小马迷在美国是有些奇怪的一群人?(请告诉我是真的吗?)

而这只是第一弹!是的,我们还有更多的内容……

Oh, Zero, bless your heart. I hope he never finds out what bronies here are actually into. *coughs*

哦,零火,愿你永葆纯真。我希望它永远不会发现那些小马迷的实际状况。*咳嗽*
