Nice translation, Fakie makers!

Demon Donkey... what the... ...

[lovesbabysquirmy]

I imagine the "Demon" part of the name came from a loose translation of "magical entity".  For example, in Japanese the word "kami" can be loosely translated as "a god" or "a spiritual creature" or "ghost" or sometimes "demon".  There are specific words for some of these entities as well, but "Kami" is a very general term.  As far as my experience with Asian languages goes, these kinds of synonyms can also be very true for Cantonese/Mandarin.  So I can honestly see how a bad English translation of "Magical Equine" became "Demon Donkey". 


But "Fun Neddy Lovely"?  Don't ask me about that one!  LOL

All things considered tho, Demon Donkey is a good name for a death metal band

If someone --anyone-- can get me a demon donkey somehow, I will love them forever. And make them cookies or confections of their choice. I'm told I'm a very good baker. *begging eyes* X3

You're probably right about this. The only I could think of is angel and demon, and that maybe the words were similar in Chinese or whatever. Good thinking!

I'm just imagining a small child hollering at the top of its lungs, "I wanna Demon Donkey!"

Oh my... laughing so hard I've got tears... thank you for posting that!  Hee hee hee...

Yay! I'm glad I posted this, then!

The Lovely Neddy toys are awesome. Wish I had a demon donkey for my fakie collection.

[TickledPink]

Demon Donkey strikes again! Hahahaha!

[hathorcat]

Demon Donkey always makes me laugh whenever pics of her pop up...no matter how they got to the name why someone somewhere didnt just say "really? are you sure?" I ll never understand.

Thanks for the giggle!

[kittybethy]

 My thoughts exactly!

[starflyer425]

"my demon donkey, my demon donkey... aaaAAAAAAAAH!"

[frizzycat]

"my demon donkey, my demon donkey... aaaAAAAAAAAH!"

Someone needs to make a parody mlp opening video with this! I can imagine the "aaaahhh" part being more horrified screaming sounds, but with the same sparkly pony music.

[Luxrayx]

I swear this is the first time i've laughed loudly at a fakie
...I wonder who thought "Demon donkey" would be a nice name for a girl's toy 

[partypony566]

Yep Demon Donkey is an oldie but goodie
