MLP Rule34: Oct. 2012 Update · 7:33am Oct 5th, 2012
In August I examined MLP's rising dominance in Rule 34. For those who missed it, or want a refresher, you can find it here.
The follow up I did in September can be found here.
It's been one month since the last update, so let's examine the stats again.
(Data based on information gathered from rule34.paheal.net)
Year series Series name Number of porn images Number of new Number of porn images Monthly percentage
Started as of Sept. 5, 2012 porn images added as of Oct. 5, 2012 increase of porn images
1996 Pokemon 51653 838 52491 1.6%
1996 Touhou 30028 746 30774 2.4%
1934 DC 16845 811 17656 4.8%
2010 My Little Pony: FIM 15365 1931 17296 12.5%
1987 Street Fighter 13469 300 13769 2.2%
1939 Marvel 12702 216 12918 1.7%
1999 Naruto 10970 219 11189 1.9%
1991 Sonic Team 10513 123 10636 1.1%
1997 Digimon NA NA 10083 NA
First of all, let's give a warm welcome to Digimon! It took the series fifteen years to amass more than 10,000 explicit images on Rule34.paheal.net. Welcome to the club!
Number three: DC - 17656 images
Number four: MLP:FIM - 17296 images
Your days are numbered DC. You can run, but you can't hide...
Today DC! Tomorrow Pokemon! (Maniacal laughter)
One area of concern is that MLP's rate of porn growth was 2% less than what it was in September. DC's rate of porn growth saw a 2% increase from last month! Are we gonna take that?!
We've got to get our numbers up, people! I know it's the off season. I know churning out quality smut takes time, but I believe that if we put our dirty minds to it, we can become the most perverted fanbase in the history of the world! Now, who's with me?
All kidding aside, once Season Three starts, I expect to see a slew of new fan made content; a vast majority of which will be safe for work. Only a fraction of fanfics and artwork made by bronies is explicit; but even that small percent of smutty material produced each month by bronies dwarfs what other fandoms are able to generate.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take a moment and reflect on how this fandom has changed me, and what my relationship is to the show.
Thanks again for reading and feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments.
EDIT: I almost forgot to include the latest stats on our lovely leading ladies!
Here are the latest numbers of how the mane six stack up in terms of smut.
Name: Number of porn images Number of new porn Number of porn images Monthly percentage
as of Sept. 5 2012: images added as of Oct.. 5, 2012 increase of porn images
Twilight Sparkle:
2504 282 2786 11.2%
Rainbow Dash:
2283 217 2500 9.5%
Pinkie Pie:
2048 187 2235 9.1%
Fluttershy:
1878 180 2058 9.5%
Rarity:
1523 154 1677 10.1%
Applejack:
1377 180 1557 13%
The rate of growth for the mane six took a sharp decline across the board in September. I can only assume that OCs and background ponies have been taking a larger percentage of the porn images recently.
lol
mind...blown...
You should keep posting these. I find them absolutely fascinating
TODAY DC, TOMORROW POKEMON!
Don`t know if I sould be happy or very sad.
...wow. Just... wow.
I wonder how this helps the non-clopper part of the community to prove to their circles that liking MLP is good and normal. I think it doesn´t.
I'm... Not entirely sure we should be proud of this. Or maybe I'm wrong. My boner never listens when I tell it that it's wrong, I don't have any secret fantasies about a Braeburn and Big Mac threesome while covered in chocolate syrup, you're stupid. I'm not gay, I like girls! Human girls! I'm not flamingly bisexual! I like human girls with breasteses on their chesteses! But again, my boner disagrees.

wtf is up with Fluttershy's tongue in that maniacal laughter .gif >.>
Really though it's interesting to see the rate of growth of pony smut. You know?! For kids!
~Have a good one.

Did I catch some Smosh reference there?
Also, people, really think about it, do we REALLY care for the position of MLP r34 stuff? And in the case we do, do we really want it to go up?
403784
I know right? Can you imagine if Jerry Springer or Howard Stern got a hold of this data?
403800
I have the feeling that they will...
403798 I don't. But my boner does, and I listen to it. It's advice has never steered me wrong before, except when it has, and that's actually surprisingly often. Luckily, she didn't press charges.
403801
Curse my love of facts and statistics!
I've doomed us all!
403804
Well, you did portray Howard Stern with a positive light in Odd Jobs, maybe he will actually...
Oh, who am I kidding. You just couldn´t stay put, could you?
Agh. Formating nonfunctional on Dolphin. So much to do when I get to new computer.
Me gusta this information mucho
This information is informative and involves R34 ponies. That a win-win-win. I don't know who else is winning, but I'm sure there is somepony.
You know that every time the number of images increase the more you have to make to get a higher percentage of it.
It's not that we're doing less images it's that the percentage of what's already made is getting lower.
Well then, heh this certainly was.. interesting.
Alright! now that I have some more data, I'll make that Dec. 5th prediction that I promised:
We seem to be holding steady at about 1900 images and change, so assuming this stays the same, we'll have around 21000 images by Dec. 5th at the absolute least. However, there's another factor to consider: Season 3 is coming out in november. Because of that, I'll just straight-up increase my prediction by 1000 images. So, my final prediction is that we'll have around 22000 images by December 5th.
Woah... Did not expect that.
Awesome!
Also: AppleJack had the highest increase in porn images?
what the hell even is Touhou??
also, nearly all of the series mentioned in your poll are no longer producing new content, with the exception of Marvel & DC (and FiM obviously)
pokemon hasn't really had anything new in years, and street fighter hasn't done anything other than update game mechanics and mix with other franchises since the 90's
Digimon & Naruto have both been canceled years ago, unless someone out there is still making Manga for them
and how sonic even got on here at all blows my mind (yes, i said it, with all the associated puns and misconceptions involved)
Twilight is the best smut/pony. BTW thanks for providing these little things for us. You rock.
403974She had the highest percentage increase because she had the lowest. If you look at the numbers, she tied with Fluttershy for second to last in actual image updates. Sorry Flutters.
Rarity is last, ha. Don't hate her, I just prefer others. Mostly because she's can be such a drama queen.
And also, YES Twilight is still best pony.
403804No, don't curse your love of stats and facts. I have been looking forward to your monthly r34 updates since you first started releasing them. And yes... we shall soon rule the r34 underworld with ponies.
Keep them posting.
DC = Detective Conan, right?
As for Twi getting so much porn done of her, i think that besides her main chara status and personality/looks its also cause of her color combination. I´ve forgotten where i´ve read it but i´m sure to have read that certain colors done in X:Y stuff will give off certain suggestions/set off certain parts of the brain. Like how rooms are felt "warmer" cause their walls are paint in a warm color or are felt "cold" cause they´re paint in a cold color but in truth have the very same temperature.
403884
I know.
Eventually we're going to hit a threshold where things slow down, but something tells me it's not going to happen anytime soon after season three comes out.
403816
Yeah, posting these statistics with the blog tools on the site is a formatting nightmare. I really need to just make a chart in Mircosoft Word and post the image to a story.
FiM will soon be #3 //dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/Pinkie_Pie_lolface.png
404029 Don't be hatin' on Rarity too much, though. I think that she's probably the most underrated of the mane 6. And I agree with you that Twilight is probably the best pony, seeing as she and I have a lot in common.
MLP just keeps on going up... because it's better, that's just the way it is, I despise all of the other things on that list. Rainbow Dash ftw, MLP:FiM ftw, Brony Community ftw, also GEARS OF WAR FTW. (Except DC and Marvel, those guys are great too, I don't despise them)
403788
hey hey hey, bring the pokemons to her shed.
404127Cool. I'm not hating on Rarity, just stating she's my least favorite among the Mane 6. There are plenty of ponies that come after her, but only one pony that I hate. And that would be Prince Blueblood. I hate him.
Applejack porn increased the highest!

Me looking at the blog title: PORN YOU SAY?
*Sees the percentages*
OH GOD NO MATH! YOU'VE CORRUPTED MY PRECIOUS PORN! NOOOOOOO!
Wow
so much twilight porn
This is... outrageous. Two fucking percent! C'mon R34 community, we need to increase production!
DC's days are numbered
Who keeps count of all of these?

This site is by no means the ultimate authority for porn on the Internet, but it is a good benchmark.
