This isn't pony related, but whatever. · 11:40pm Jan 20th, 2014
Okay, this isn't really related to any of my fanfic or ponies or anything, but I really want to get word out.
I have no idea if any of you guys are familiar with the tv series Wakfu, but if you aren't, you should be. It's a French-made adventure series, and it's really good. It has an interesting cast, the animation is amazing, and the humor is generally really tight. Since I'm too lazy to really go into detail, here's a clip from the opening episode:
Yeah. It's a pretty cool show. The reason I decided to make a blog post for it despite it premiering a few years back is this: The series was never translated into English or released officially in any language other than French, which means the only way for someone who doesn't speak French to watch it is fansubs. However, I just found out today that the show's developers have started a kickstarter to raise money to dub the show and give it an official English release. It's only about a day in, and it's already about a quarter of the way there.
So yeah, if you aren't familiar with the show, I highly encourage you to check it out, and if you're already a fan (who doesn't speak French), check out the kickstarter and think about chucking some money at it to get a dub and to get this really cool show some wider exposure. And you'll make Evangelyne and Sadlygrove (Tristepin, if you're going to be a purist :p ) happy:
You just gave me another way to procrastinate. Now I'm probably going to watch all of these episodes, and if anyone asks, I'll just say I'm practicing my French.
Looks interesting enough. Maybe Ill watch some sometime this week. Thanks for showing me this.
*watches clip*
Remind me why I'm not watching this yet again?
Oh, yeah. It's further down the really long list.
But, I'll try start soon.
I tried to watch it back in the day but had problems accessing the episodes.
Well, at the very least, I'll try again.
Dubbing? Why would you do that...
Let them spend the money on a proper sub instead.
1898891 Subs were the first stretch goal, and it got met in like a day or two.
