Honestly she would have won, but obviously they can't let the bad guys win because little girls show.

Literally all of the princesses of Equestria, all of the Mane Six plus Spike and Starlight, Flurry Heart, and a God of Chaos were there and she didn't have a barrier anymore. She was fucked.

They just showed them winning in alternate timelines, but at the end the "friendship" still won.
It is like when some character dies but people love it so much the writers have to bring him back with retarded plot holes.

Discord was a retard, getting around anti-magic barriers is Basic Wizard 101 here; you can teleport OTHER THINGS into the area that are non-magical, like summoning up tatzlwurms or some shit and then air dropping it into the area.

They won't dissapear.

Chrysalis realized I think she was fucking up but committed to her argument, figuring she can just kill Thorax and Starlight hoping the hive just falls back in place.

This. If Fluttershy wasn't in there, he would have just picked up a volcano mountain and dropped it from orbit on top of the hive.

>>28610618
You probably indulge in greentext anonfics, so you wouldn't understand.

the show's theme has always been about how harmony and love beat things like ruling through fear or whatever.

The problem isnt that she lost, the problem is that she lost because of her own subjects, drones who till now had been heavily implied to be willingly serving her. A better solution might've been that they used their love for her as a source instead.

I don't understand how anyone cares at this point. The episode was great but changelings were already ruined the minute they reformed Thorax, because after that there couldn't be any point to them feeding on love since they can just reform it. And I argued that fact here on /mlp/, and you know what some of you autists did?

You argued with me. You told me the changelings wouldn't be better off and more powerful if they just quit eating love and reformed, because even though there was no point now, obviously the show would have SAID if that was true.

Now the show has just straight up said it point blank so even the dumbest asshole could grasp it. There was no point to the changelings having done anything. They should have been good guys from square one and they were evil for no reason.

>>28611021
Now will you be so nice, AND GET OUT OF MY FREAKING POOL!
>>
>>28610991
Yes but that's because I was never a faustfag.
I never trusted that woman completely, she always tried to shove her own hidden motives and shit behind the show, I am glad that she started it, but I am also glad that hasbro never gave in to her stupid feminism propaganda.
Just look at her now, trying to stay relevant.
However that's not to say the other writers aren't incompetent or don't try to shove their own motives behind the scenes.
The problem with the current trends in this board is that people run to the fucking extremes, you can't watch the show but point out you don't like x or y, you have to absolutely like everything or leave.
Like people eating out the changeling transformation, the ones that hate it are simply gonna get dismissed and ignored, even if they have valid points, watch it happen. It happened with the wings, it happened with the castle, it happened with Glimmer.
>>
>>28611085
It happened with just about everything. Truth is this show would be better served with more shit like the wings and the musical "homages" so blatant that some of us are still surprised Sondheim hasn't sued.
>>
>>28611021
I dont disagree, but they could've at least chalked it up to a manipulative and evil queen. The transformation was just too much. Glittery wings like Thorax were enough.
>>
>>28605862
her subjects betrayed her and found a new leader
>>
>>28610805
Honestly, this. I feel like sometimes this might not feel explicitly clear, but friendship is basically the nuclear bomb of the show's universe. Call it overpowered all you want, but it seems pretty clear that using friendship magic is Equestria's equivalent of assembling Voltron: once it starts, the enemy's pretty much fucked.
I guess my only issue is that this sorta implies that no changeling has ever before tried to serious rebel and form a friendship with an outside race.

Am I the only one here who enjoyed it?

All you fucking pessimistic fags still wanting the high from s2

And yea we all won't be happy with what happens I undertstand

Me personally I wanted another dbz finally

However I was also expecting this finale to focus around the baby and I'm glad that didn't happen

At the end of the day it's a cartoon that makes you feel good inside, wheaten that comes by shitposting about it or by watching it

We can complain and complain, and argue and nit pick

I'll admit it's not the finale I wanted but also isn't the one I would hate

Many of you have good points to argue and valid reasons to dislike sure, but it's a god damn cartoon, not an entire comic series that's existed for 60+ years or a novel

Just sit and enjoy it while we still have it damn

this show is a rode many of you wont get off from, even me, so enjoy it while it's moving

>>28611306
I think >>28606783 was trying to be your average edgy faggot, and hasn't watched the show at all. I mean fucking Love and Friendship are the two most powerful forces in the fucking show, but it's obviously ONLY these writers who have pulled this unrealistic thing out of their asses.

Like rub your fucking cock over it, you don't have any fucking bullshit on me to claim I didn't watch your stinky finale.
Just cause I disapprove doesn't mean I didn't watch it.
Every time you feel attacked you always run to scream "they don't watch the show" because that somehow means you have a free card to dismiss everybody that says shit you don't like.
I have proved I watch the show multiple times, and people just dismiss it with stupid shit like "you just lurk the board and don't really watch"
What the hell is wrong with you son of a bitch? do you want to literally sit with me in a fucking synchtube so we watch the shit together?

No it is obvious that before people just dismissed the complains because everybody screamed hype and optimism everywhere. Now that people got down from their cloud, the ones that like the things as they are like you think everybody is against you when they voice their complaints, because the place is much slower and the people complains harder now.
"it has been always the same" or "it is just a show for little girls, so it gets a pass" aren't valid excuses. A products should ALWAYS aim for improving, not to remain bad or mediocre forever.
While some ponies and episode have brought some good porn and discussion, the rest of them are on pair if not worse than other shit we had in the past.

I agree however, it would be nice to see twilight and her friends solve a problem that friendship can't fix

Then again I couldn't think of anything other than using violence which they will never do so idk

I'm happy with whatever really as long as they don't replace twilight with glimmer after the movie which I fear they will do and even more fags will leave like with twilicorn

Twilight will live with celestia or something and maybe appear/ speak 2 times in a season

That's what I'm hoping won't happen
Because,though I like glimmer tearing twilight away will tear apart the mane 6
>>
>>28611703
I'm in the same boat. There's not a lot they can do with that, unless they combine this season and Season 1's opening and closing ideas (ie a truthfully non-action episode and a non-action episode).

But we know that wont happen because those get raked over the coals.

I hope it won't come down to that but they obviously kept glimmer around for a reason

I can't think of another reason to have her around unless to add a 7th pony

Then again twilight going off to celestia wouldn't make sense really, she's the princess of friendship and she would need her friends with her she can't abandon them

Dunno man
>>
>>28611768
Shit I meant the not solvingt he finale/opener with friendship thing. I seriously doubt they're gonna take out the main 6 or even Twilight, the whole thing still revolves around the now expanded cast of 11 (or 12 if you consider the CMCs together as another cast memeber)

Ah sorry,dunno maybe they can say like "it needed a different type of friendship to solve it"

Like the traditional stuff won't work

Maybe a friendship works like r2d2 and c3pos relationship

Where they're friends but they constantly fight/bicker

And maybe the problem with that friendship is they stopped bickering and Ended up not wanting to be around each other because their relationship became boring

I don't know, just spit balling

I think part of the problem is just that, it can't be something that goes away from the rest of the show, which is basically 90% SoL stories put around friends doing friend stuff.

Difintely on that last part. Truthfully I wouldn't mind something other than action action action for the opener/finale, and a combination of those two ideas would be goddamn good.
>>
>>28611306
I dont think it being OP as fuck is a real issue, I think a bigger problem is how easily they were able to use it.
I mean, Crysalis had to infiltrate a kingdom and soak up all the love meant for their royalty to just get stronger than Celestia.
Glimglam took an entire season to learn how this "dont be a dick" thing even worked, and she was willing and able.

I got the impression Changelings were incapable of love, hence why they'd have to feed off others. But fine, that was just an assumption.
Them suddenly having enough love to nuke the big villain though, that seems to go against everything they've been establishing all season.

>>28611343
I think people generally liked the character interaction and premise, but didnt like what they did to the changelings.

you are retarded. Chrysalis doesn't NEED children to fulfill her ambition you moron.

She can leave her quiet little hive and blent into pony society and no one will ever be able to do anything about her. MLP has shown us that they are capable of great deception of even the highest seat of offices. the season 2 finale showed a creature that cannot be stopped unless it takes a gamble for something other than itself. other changelings require food, eductation, time, compassion (as we saw in thoraxes flash back) and increase her footprint dramatically. They are nothing more than a liability to be dropped instantly if you are at all selfish. Chrysalis has more power, and above all, more mobility, without any of them needing her guidance and care. they are USELESS.

The shit writing that wrote her being manipulative of them is garbage. Her actions only make sense in light of her loyalty to her people. She puts herself in danger for them. think about what revealing herself at the wedding did for her; it let everyone know what she looked like. She was discovered by the barest chance of one pony out of millions. She put her face out there because she knew she couldn't hide it. Why? because she had her children to think about and they needed to show up and fight.

Think about how much easier it would have been if she didn't care about them as you say, as if she would only use them when its convenient. Stay transformed, run, and replace someone else and built up power immediately. It's not like youre pressed for time. you have all that love that shining gave you, who cares if you can't use it right now to the most effect, it's not like you have children to feed. It's not like you cant just keep it and get more love elsewhere until you are truly unstoppable.

Lauren isn't perfect but the point was never lauren is perfect, the point is having a clusterfuck of writers always makes something bad, where as having one or two writers (TOPS) actually has the chance of being not shit

it makes me feel sorry for the villains, that just because they are egoistic and evil they can't win, it's really unfair (and not a good lesson for kids)

If you think that's the worse thing this show has teached them, you are wrong.
If a kid takes at face value what the show teaches, like some anon said once, a thief gets inside the house steals everything and kills her parents, by the show logic the little girls has to go and scream BUT FREIDNSHIP IS MAGIC so she gets a shot in the head.

>The show has always been this way.
Not. Exactly.

S1, we nuked Luna with a friendship bomb. This "reverted" her back to her old self and didn't conflict with anything we already knew.

S2, we nuked Discord with a friendship bomb. This reverted him back to stone, as he was when he was introduced to us.

S2 again, we nuked changelings with a friendship bomb, and it sent the changelings flying in all directions never to be seen again for four three years.

S3, we nuked Twilight with a friendship bomb, killing her and replacing her with Twilight, the princess of "I dunno". Friendship - but they didn't start calling her that until season 5, I think. This was one time friendship irrevocably altered a character who had been established for a long while.

S4 (I think. I can't remember what season Sombra was), we nuked Sombra, who was a black cloud of "nothing notable".

S4, we friendship bombed Tirek, which took away his powers and reverted him to the state of weakness he was in when we first met him.

S5, didn't nuke anything.

S6, we nuked the changelings with friendship, irrevocably changing them while simultaneously establishing that their original form served no purpose and existed for no reason. The entire race is now forever altered to be something completely unalike how they were.

So twice. Twice we've had friendship permanently change something into something they weren't before, only this time, unlike Alicorn Twilight, the change is so blatant not even an austist can insist that "nothing is different".

Both friendship bombs were, actually the first two mentioned.
And the point here was friendship solves everything, and the moral being something regarding a, doesn't actually work in real life lesson on friendship, i.e. "friendship fills the void".

The show has always been on the idealistic side, because in only one of those cases (S3 opener with Sombra) was a person destroyed, and even fucking then it was still friends will be there even when you don't want them to be.

That's what was meant by it always being this way, this show is unrealistic to the faggot who started this argument, because it's not "real" like the current spate of adult oriented shows piggybacking off of Game of Thrones with superficial realness (and subsequently become the annoying. "Grey Bloom and Brown" of TV)

>>28614785
No one gives a shit that it's not realistic, we give a shit that it's shitty writing.

Those were constructs created by magic; You don't summon magical constructs against anti-magic, you teleport something that already exists into the area, those won't go poof.

Its like picking up a rock and throwing it-- the rock isn't magical, so it will still keep traveling inside the barrier, while a fireball would dissipate.
>>
>>28614785
Well, the point I was making is that although we've always solved everything with friendship bombs in MLP, the friendship bombs don't usually irrevocably change characters to be a fully opposite contradiction of their original selves. The bombs turned them back to normal, or into stone, or made them leave.

Talking horses isn't realistic in the first place, but talking horses that reverse their evolutionary function just because you suggested they try it is plain stupid. Why did they even eat love in the first place if it was only making them weak? Why would giving love make them more powerful? How come none of them tried giving love before? It was as simple as doing it and the whole hive was able to do it instantly.

I get what that anon was saying. It's a cartoon. It's not realistic. But this changeling thing is inconsistent, defeats their original purpose, opens up a half dozen plot holes, and leaves us with a villain who refuses to give love for no reason. "Because evil", I guess. Chrysalis and indeed all the changelings gain nothing by being the way they originally were.

I think a better way of putting it isn't to say it's "unrealistic", but to say there's no way I can plausibly suspend my disbelief. I am unconvinced that any of this shit could work, even in the context of a fantasy show for kids.

Want me to quote it? And i'll even unspoiler it.

>>28606783
I think OP means before the questionable bullshit of "lol friendship fills the void inside" that the writers forced at the last minutes.
And no it doesn't, you are idealistic fucks, writers. That's not how reality works.

Here let me reiterate more
And no it doesn't, you are idealistic fucks, writers. That's not how reality works.

Say why does it look like the debate is that it's shit writing because it's idealistic (something this show has been since Season fucking one episode fucking one, and the subsequent 142 episodes, 147+ if we count EqG and its shorts as spin-offs)

So get off your high horse that this is about shitty Deus Ex Machina writing (which has been there all along as well) , when it's about the idiocy of expecting an idealistic show to not be fucking idealistic.

>>28614856
Not disagreeing with it being a stupid thing. Then again our lore on why the changelings even existed in the first place is pretty bare bones, so it could have been anything ranging from a curse that nobody thought to break, to a string of Hapsburg mixed with Borgia style leaders keeping themselves cursed.

But see above as to what I was referring to. It was referring to the whole thing of all this shit is idealistically solved by friendship, and expecting it to not be idealistic. Because muh reality.

It's the reason everybody pretty much thinks the anon referred to above doesn't actually watch the show, because he'd pick up that it's idealistic as fuck, and isn't likely to change at all, not just because it's a kids show, but because at its core it's an idealistic world that it's based in.

I'll agree that the shit is confusing as fuck and yet another shitt deus ex ending for a series that likes to cap on and off with them. But the faggot literally said it was because it was idealistic and not reality. And expects the show to NOT be idealistic for some reason.

yes. that's not how reality works, welcome to childrens fantasy, People still have to eat you fucking clod. that doesn't mean we are obsessed with reality. no one is having an autism fit about violet eyes
>>
>>28614993
Not him, but to me it all comes down to shit writing.

You can have idealistic message AND have it written well.

Finale however had idealistic message that was written so bad, that they had to BEND THE PLOT TO SUIT IT.
Thats unacceptable.
>>
>>28613574
See what, your shitty writing to try to argue against the shows shitty writing?
>>
>>28615100
>how dare the show have a well rounded antagonist
the only shit writing (granted there was a lot of it) in the season 2 finale was how fucking inept the ponies and chrysalis seemed at subterfuge and gaurd duty.
>>
>>28615125
Perhaps they are not exactly guards and treated more like shitty security?
>>
>>28615030
>nobody is having an autism fit about violet eyes.

Want me to reiterate the spoilered section again since it seems you have the reading comprehension of an aussie mixed with a slav? And maybe break down what is being said.

And no it doesn't, you are idealistic fucks, writers. That's not how reality works. - spoilered by >>28606783 and subsequently defended by the same anon (or anons who feel the same) when called out on being a sperging idiot regarding idealism.

>>28615061
And I agree that it's shitty deus ex machina writing. However the faggot decided to focus on it being idealistic, and got pissy when he got called out on not watching the show or expecting idealism.

it's many thing about being a shoddy ending, but the idealism isn't one of them unless you're a everything idealistic is shitty edgelord like >>28606783.

Fuck I just realized I forgot to use quote arrows while actually quating >>28606783. so here you go.

>I think OP means before the questionable bullshit of "lol friendship fills the void inside" that the writers forced at the last minutes.
And no it doesn't, you are idealistic fucks, writers. That's not how reality works.

that's what the sperg in >>28606783 literally said, then had a subsequent autism fit when called out on it.

I think this was a fucking missed opprotunity to actually tell us why the fucking Changelings are even like they are. Is it a curse, is it biology that their rulers just utilized to keep in power, is it shitty writing so we can have yet another redemption that nobody wanted and we'll never have anything actually answered? I know the last one is the actual reason, but goddamn there's more than the idealism wrong with how it ended, and that faggot focused on that,which is why >>28613849 which started this new fracas is an idiot who didn't get the argument of "it's always been here" is referring to (and defending) the goddamn idealism of the show, and not the shitty ending.

Do I need to show what was said again. It was about the idealism, which has been here since S1 episode 1, and not what anybody else has recently brought up.
