Huh, interesting.
@Deserter
Strictly speaking, the dragon horses would be the longmas. Qilins have typically been depicted as creatures resembling both dragons and a variety of hoofed animals, including horses, deer, oxen and giraffes.

Kind of tangential, but this talk of giraffes on a kirin picture reminded me of an interesting bit of trivia: there’s been a tendency in East Asian culture to associate qilins/girins/kirins/whichever spelling suits with giraffes, dating back to when the Chinese explorer Zeng He traveled to Africa and brought back, among other gifts to the then-reigning Emperor, a pair of giraffes. The Emperor declared that these were qilins, and the association stuck. Even today, the Korean and Japanese words girin and kirin are used to name both the mythical creature and the real-life long-necked mammal.
So while me may not be getting civilized, talking giraffes in the way we hoped we might, we’re still technically getting civilized, talking giraffes… in two specific translations, granted.
I too wish for a race of clumsy wobbly legged Giraffes…
Seriously, Equestria is frigging big enough that they could have placed a Giraffe town someplace…
I’m still mad Giraffes don’t have the same level of sentience as ponies.
They used to be more deer like then giraffe like.
Kirin is not a descendant of the Loong,And their status is equal
Now someone has to do an animation of Autumn Blaze dubbed with that.
this piece of info was just revealed two days ago.

I do not approve!
Everything i own.
They are literally dragon horses.
I mean, sure, they’re not based on the offspring of a mythological creature with a regular creature like the hippogryphs are, but I can almost guarantee you that there’s gonna exactly no mention on how they have similar features to ponies or dragons. Or at the very least they’re gonna point out the fact that they’re basically quadrupedal Eastern dragons and leave it at that.
Why would they be? Unlike hippogriffs, kirin aren’t the result of two different species mating.

Ah. I haven’t actually watched the video.
