===Anime parodies and influence===
Many Pony voice actors have been involved in anime. As several anime was dubbed in Canada in the '80s and '90s, several actors who would appear in Generation 3 and ''Friendship is Magic'' appeared in anime works prior. Most notably of these would probably be [[Richard Ian Cox]] who appeared in several iconic anime series such as ''{{W|InuYasha}}'' and ''[[Dragon Ball]]'' and [[Brian Drummond]], who appeared as {{W|Vegeta}} in the Ocean dub of ''Dragon Ball {{W|Dragon Ball Z|Z}}'', though there are many more examples. For example, both [[Nicole Oliver]] and [[Kathleen Barr]] appeared in ''{{W|Adieu Galaxy Express 999}}'', as Emeraldas and Maetel respectively.▼

Anime, manga, and Japanese media in general have influenced ''My Little Pony'' in a variety of ways. In the episode "[[Scare Master]]", {{FIM|Fluttershy}} had several artworks of ponified anime characters, such as [[Bulma Briefs]] and [[Ranma Saotome]]. In the ''[[Equestria Girls]]'' short, "[[Queen of Clubs]]", the [[Anime club]] posed like the [[Sailor Senshi]], who have appeared throughout the series, primarily n the [[IDW Publishing|comics by IDW Publishing]], for example, {{FIM|Aqua Mist}}.
The [[manga]] series, ''[[My Little Pony: The Manga]]'', surprisingly doesn't parody much anime, instead serving as a parody of ''[[Doctor Who]]'', does briefly parody [[ninja]] and [[high school]] anime in the final story of the first volume, in which the Applejack-san of the [[Apple clan]], a clan of Ninja, must go to [[Ponyville-cho High School]] to save the world from [[Spikezilla]]. In the tory, the {{FIM|Mane Six}} are portrayed as stereotypes and Twilight herself is a [[magical girl]], and the story ends with them creating a mech to fight off the rampaging kaiju.
In some cases, actors more known for anime roles have been cast to play characters, such as [[Brittany Lauda]], who appeared in software games and was has been involved in tons of different anime properties.▼
Similarly, {{C|FIM|24|"Discord in Time"}} features another mech parody, as the {{FIM|Cutie Mark Crusaders}} create a mech to fight {{FIM|Gummy}}.
Several characters have been shown to enjoy anime, such as [[Mystery Mint]], [[Cherry Crash]], [[Scribbl Dee]], [[Paisley]], [[Watermelody]], {{FIM|Fluttershy}}, and [[King Sombra]].
