Hmmm. Do all of the "My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic" fans know about BRB's "Filly Funtasia"?

It is nice to see that BRB is doing its own CGI animation in Spain today instead of subcontracting it to Japanese animation studios. When anime fans first saw these in the 1980s from videos from Japan, it looked like TV cartoons like "Dogtanian" and "Willy Fog" were entirely Japanese productions. We didn't know that they had been commissioned by BRB for Spanish TV, and were only shown on Japanese TV because the Japanese animation studio had them available. It is obvious in retrospect that a Japanese studio wouldn't have picked funny-animal adaptations of European novels like "The Three Musketeers" and "Around the World in 80 Days" for Japanese TV on its own.
