Several years ago, I stumbled upon an exceptionally beautiful yet little-known art series titled Canterlot Royal Ballet Academy. While superficially a My Little Pony fan series, to my eyes it stands so uniquely apart that it might almost be considered original - every element beyond the character names feels entirely fresh. As the title suggests, this series follows anthropomorphic ponies attending a ballet academy.
I can't quite pinpoint why, but this work radiates a surreal, otherworldly aura - a uniquely captivating atmosphere unlike anything I'd encountered before. That first encounter left me immersed in its surreal experience for an entire day. When I stumbled upon it late at night, it felt eerie at first, but that sense of dissonance quickly dissolved into pure admiration. I fell into a beautiful trance, utterly captivated. I experienced an indescribable surreal, ethereal sensory journey, while also catching whiffs of a sweet, phantom scent.
The following morning, I thought it was only a dream, only to be delighted to find it was real. Throughout the rest of that day, the sensation grew more intense, making the entire day feel like a waking dream, subsiding only as dusk fell.
Whenever I gaze upon it, a peculiar feeling arises - as if it were something that shouldn't exist in reality, something unimaginable. Like a fragment of some magical dream miraculously transplanted into reality. Without any backstory, I could fully envision the entire series as if it truly existed. This wasn't a story I'd invented; it felt as though the sensation itself contained an inherent narrative thread. I can vividly picture the dreamlike fragmentation, imbued with a fleeting innocence. I can even precisely imagine how each character's voice should sound - those otherworldly tones seem to transcend time and space, originating nowhere yet carrying an intensely intimate quality.
For years, I've been utterly captivated by CRBA. I scoured the internet for any trace of it, only to discover how remarkably obscure it remains - a profound disappointment. It seems everyone who knows it considers it brilliant, yet for some reason, it never gained the recognition it deserves. AVCHonline's artistic evolution has been equally astonishing. Within just a few years, he ascended from rough sketches to the pinnacle of the CRBA series. Yet puzzlingly, his earlier works garner more attention than his later creations.
I've made it my mission to make people find out about it and (hopefully) experience the same awe that I felt. So I've created a website to catalog all of the artwork in one place (and in the highest quality). Prior to this, it was scattered in many places across the internet, much of it only available in low resolution.
I've also created an imageboard for it.

A few years ago, I accidentally discovered an incredibly beautiful, yet obscure art series called "Canterlot Royal Ballet Academy". The series is ostensibly an MLP fan series, but in my opinion, it's so unique that it's basically original in everything but the character names. The series is an about anthropomorphic ponies in a ballet academy (as the title suggests).
I don't know exactly what it is about it, but the series just has this amazing and surreal aura around it that I've never seen anything quite like before. When I first saw the series, I had an incredibly surreal experience that lasted almost a whole day. I first found it late at night. At first I thought it was very strange, but that feeling quickly melted away into pure admiration for it. I experienced a beautiful trance where I became fixated on it. I experienced a very surreal and ethereal feeling I can't quite describe, and I also experienced a very sweet phantom smell.
The following morning, I thought it was a dream, and was very pleasantly surprised to discover that it was actually real. The rest of that day, the feeling only got more and more intense, and the whole day felt like a daydream. It only subsided towards the end of the day.
Whenever I look at it, I get this very strange feeling as if it is something that you shouldn't be able to see or even be able to imagine in real life. Like something from a magical dream that was somehow transported to reality. Without requiring any backstory, I can picture the whole series perfectly as if it was real. Not like I'm coming up with one myself - but that it feels like there's one intrinsic to it. I can picture this very dream-like incoherence, with an ephemeral innocence to it. I can picture exactly what the voices for each of the characters should sound like. Ethereal voices that feel timeless and that don't originate from any particular place, yet also feel very intimate.
I've been obsessed with CRBA for years now. I've scoured the internet for every single mention of it, and have been disappointed to find out just how little it has been noticed. It seems like everyone who finds out about thinks it's amazing, yet somehow it has gotten very little recognition. I'm also impressed with just how quickly AVCHonline improved his artistic talent. In just a few years, he went from very crude drawings of cartoons to the height of the CRBA series. Yet his early art still got more attention than his later work.
