Why is she so useless?

>>29242980
They confirmed that their powers will be getting stronger. Maybe eventually she will be able to do some summoning shit like Garukk Wildspeaker or at least get some big animals to assist her like bears, elk, moose, eagles and snakes and shit.

>>29243003
>They confirmed that their powers will be getting stronger
Source or bullshit. Also, Magical or giant animals don't exist in the human world, its explicitly non-magical and "normal". So the biggest thing she could summon would be a bear or blue whale.

>>29243004
SUPERFRIENDS aquaman.
Normal aquaman has a shit ton of other powers that make him useful. All Superfriends aquaman did was talk to fish, which is all fluttershy is good for.

Fluttershy gets pokeball gems that she can store monsters in and call them out to fight for her.

>>29243026
>Source or bullshit.
The LoE directors commentary. Only Sunset is confirmed to have her power grow stronger but it's safe to assume that it would then be the same for the others.

It's on yayponies if you wanna see it.

And there is a lot of animals that would be very useful in a fight like the ones I listed.

>>29243131
>Only Sunset is confirmed to have her power grow stronger but it's safe to assume that it would then be the same for the others.
Sunset probably just gets her daydream form back, I wouldn't bank on the others getting upgrades just like how only she will ever get a daydream form.

well at least she gives us the most panty shots so it's not a total loss

>>29243155
She's also the worst character to give panty shots; AJ or rarity are hotter.

>>29243145

I'm not quite sure. I think we made it up.

that's the fan nickname for sunset's super form. Hasbro never gave it an official name like they never gave her demon form an official name either.

the only thing she did was kick rocks at a wall, at least Rarity did shit against the vines. Her strength is barely that much more than a power lifter anyways, she's not incredible hulk or even collossus tier.
Not to mention Super strength =/= invulnerability which is pretty much needed to make super strength actually worthwhile.

>>29243356
The entire premise of the series is its a "normal" earth that has abnormal magic entering into it: this is the entire problem of the series.
If they were to suddenly say that their earth was crazy and had stuff like mystical creatures in it, you destroy the premise that hasbro was going for.

But our world is arguably more fantastical than EQG, at least on a technological standpoint.

>>29246231
But the premise fails to make the concept entertaining. Equestria isn't fantastical enough to make the concept of magic seeping into a world resembling ours work well as a premise and due to the "normal" world and characters not being defined due to the belief that they don't need to, it relies on their characterization to be entertaining; however, due to this belief that "real is mundane" and "magic needs to be interesting" they don't give it any interesting characterization.

This causes Equestria Girls to be a series that actively tries not to be interesting, and be arguably more unrealistic than what they were going for.

>>29246305
>questria isn't fantastical enough to make the concept of magic seeping into a world resembling ours work
Untrue, look at all the shit that went on due to Glory getting magic. That's "normal" equestrian magic right there, plant control isn't anything to write home about in the pony universe.

>>29246231
The girls have magical superpowers now, why couldn't they start using them to fight against robots, aliens, mutants, crazy science experiments, vampires, werewolves, and anything else that could technically exist in a world without magic?

>>29246350
No, but I would argue that robots can be just as crazy.

Most probably the situations for the show will be that magic is leaking through due to those cracks that Sunset failed to seal up coming into contact with humans with negative emotions, turning them into insane demons, and the mane six have to fight and purify them monster of the week style.

You didn't make an argument, you just quoted two other arguments.

That sounds like it would get boring really fast.

>>29246358
Maybe the portal and the magic coming from it is causing all sorts of supernatural things to come out of the woodwork.
Maybe their prior exploits start leaking out leading to mad scientists trying to experiment with the portal's magic.

It could be like Gravity Falls.

sailor moon didn't get boring. That's also basically the plot of Miraculous Ladybug.

>>29246521
Sailor Moon had pretty wacky characters, EQG does not. It is why Star Vs the Forces of Evil and Gravity Falls work even without supernatural elements.

Don't you have any "Why is the EQG world so mundane" threads to make you mega-autist?

>>29246548
Just off yourself already.

>>29246537
EQG wants to be relatable and realistic, that's why its characters are subdued. Steven Universe does the same thing.

Sailor Moon was willing to ditch the relatable aspects in order to build more comedy, Equestria Girls doesn't care to do that.

>>29246537
Not a fair comparison, both of those shows were produced by Disney. Disney tends to hold a much higher standard of quality than Hasbro does.

>>29246263

I haven't seen anything to prove otherwise.

Uhhh EQG world isn't mundane ENOUGH. It's filled with stupid magic villains and pointless horse powers.

>>29246521
Sailor Moon had more action in its series than EQG did and actually bothered to have something resembling an overarching plot. Furthermore, it lampooned many of the girl pandering cliches that EQG plays straight which is where a lot of its comedy came from.

>>29246578
Characters kind of act really dull, and we do have more impressive tech in our world.

EQG will refuse to have robots because that's too fantastical, but they totally exist in our world.

Well damn, I stand corrected. I want one of those things myself, but I bet it would cost an arm and a leg to get one.

Regardless, it cannot be exactly our world, it has to be a world that the target audience can relate to. Putting in cutting edge tech isn't something the target audience would associate with as realistic. Also, if they start having the girls or the villains use tech then the series would kind of lose the point of being called Equestria Girls.

>>29246662
Doesn't that kind of show that maybe Equestria magic isn't fantastical enough to make an impact on the real world?

>>29246691
Maybe. You have to remember Equestria Girls is a world made to represent what corporate executives out of touch with reality believe little girls who haven't experienced enough reality believe high school life is really like with a goal to sell horse girl toys.

It doesn't matter if the real world is drastically different from that, it matters what will be popular. Hasbro execs believe a more interesting world will either not conform to what they believe little girls will like or that more sci-fi and supernatural elements won't appeal to girls.

Ironically, you are essentially asking for the series to be MORE like Monster High and throwing in what actually made it a hit (hint it's the monster part), but it doesn't matter Hasbro has changed gears and are doubling down on the cuteness factor because that sells better with its target audience and the bronies.

>Sailor Moon had more action in its series than EQG did and actually bothered to have something resembling an overarching plot.

That's what legend of everfree was about; they gave the mane seven concrete magical powers so they could act as full on magical girls and they're establishing an overarching plot with magic leaking into the universe.

>>29247922
Sailor Moon had lore that actually affected the characters and story, it had recurring villains, and an overarching plot.

EQGs plots are mostly self-contained.

>>29247994
That's because EQG has been movies so far; if they made it a series they could introduce overarching plots instead.

>>29248017
For EQG to have viable recurring villains they would need to shatter the "normal" world Hasbro was going for, affect the FIM continuity, or introduce massive plot holes.

Not really. It's pretty much said in the movies that Equestria had incursions into the EqG world in the past. The sirens, Sunset implies that an element has been used in the EqG world in the past in the first movie.
There's actually something that could be done and none of those would bring in plot holes or affect the continuity.

>>29242980

>>29248467
But Hasbro doesn't want the series to crossover with FIM.
It would be weird for Princess Twilight to be alerted or called upon everytime a villain appears.

>>29248490
It doesn't have to crossover with FiM.
They could just have villians who were convicts banished from Equestria.

I think a fun villain might be an an ancient monk with mystical abilities who comes to Canterlot High to forcibly seal the portal at all costs.

We find out later there is an ancient evil that is using the hole in our world to get free. It could be like networking, and we just have a port open that only Equestria is bothering to send anything through.

>>29248498
Why isn't Twilight taking care of it? It is Equestria's problem and she helped the last time.

>>29248525
They want to make EQG divorced and self contained from MLP.
They're probably going to permanently seal the portal in the next movie/specials in order to Divorce the two completely.
Most probably they say some bullshit about the portal they have set up is helping to hold the cracks open, and they need to destroy the statue/mirror permanently, with only the Book as the final link between equestria and the human world.


Then the EQG series will be about the mane seven trying to gather up and absorb all the stray equestrian magic into their amulets, with the Sirens acting as their Evil opposite villains, with some higher evil acting as the sirens boss, like another equestrian villain who escaped through the cracks in the dimensions and is just using the sirens as pawns to help him gather strength.

>>29248700
>Then the EQG series will be about the mane seven trying to gather up and absorb all the stray equestrian magic into their amulets

The whole series so far has been about how great it is to have magic in this world, Sunset even sang a song about it.

>with the Sirens acting as their Evil opposite villains

But they have no more access to their magic?
>with some higher evil acting as the sirens boss
Why would they have a boss?

This plot really doesn't have enough room to do anything unpredictable, and I believe the target audience would greatly prefer robots, aliens, mutants, and mythical creatures especially if any of them are humanioid dudes.

>>29243003
And this is exactly why I don't watch any of the shit eqg movies.

THEIR magic is great, its terrible when other people have it: See Glory going insane and Sunset saying its not glory anymore.
The mane seven having magic is great because its their destiny (The bit about them being meant to have it), but its not good for OTHER Humans to have it because they don't have the EOH inside them so they turn into insane demons.

>But they have no more access to their magic
BUT magic is seeping back through the portal into the human world: If other humans are coming into contact with magic like Glory was, all it takes to get the Sirens their magic back is for Adagio to realize those magic sparkles from the end of Legend of everfree are buzzing around and them to track down one for themselves.

>Why would they have a boss
Because the sirens are pretty much "Evil miniboss squad" tier in their schtick, they're loveable evil characters (Look at how much everyone insists sonata isn't evil). A good way to include such characters is to have an even EVILER character be introduced, have said villains work with them or for them, and then get betrayed by said boss or betray the boss themselves.

the same thing that went on with Discord and tirek basically.

What is the ultimate goal for their magic? Is it to stop bad uses of magic? If yes, then why not get rid of magic entirely? If yes, then magic is kind of a bad thing.

If they need their magical powers to take care of non-magical threats then magic will have a greater purpose and would be overall a good thing.

>Why would they have a boss
If we introduce more powerful elements in their world, then we can make the Sirens more threatening by making them more powerful.

What if they got some crazy monsters under their control? It could also justify Fluttershy's power, maybe she can get through to them.

Pinkie Pie operates on cartoon physics and no one seems to be bothered by it.

>>29249313
That was in Equestria, which is loaded with all sorts of cartoon logic even outside of Pinkie and has a rabbit with superhuman intelligence.

If the EQG operates on ANY of the same logic, then it is not our world.

Regardless, why can't there be dinosaurs unfrozen? Why can't there be aliens? Why can't their be a villain that can build robots?

>>29249331
Also no one seems to be bothered by magic.
They don't make it a secret and when confronted by it the CP students seem pretty indifferent to it

>>29249331
Logic is bendable in a proportionate amount to how humorous the situation is: Sillier situations are meant to be taken less at face value and so the more humor a situation has the more the writers can "bend" reality without breaking disbelief.

Those things are never meant to be taken as "OMG she has actual reality warping capabilities!" though, just gags, much like Twilight getting an anvil dropped on her head and surviving isn't meant to imply she's Hulk level invulnerable and could survive the situations where she's falling to her death, since the impact of terminal velocity would be significantly less than a piano and anvil hitting her in the head since they'd weight more (Like in the S5 finale or Wonderbolt academy)

>Logic is bendable in a proportionate amount to how humorous the situation is: Sillier situations are meant to be taken less at face value and so the more humor a situation has the more the writers can "bend" reality without breaking disbelief.

Pinkie has ESP or Pinkie Sense in the first film which is used to move the plot.

Fluttershy's very ability only works under the logic that animals have a similar intelligence to the animals in Equestria or they are on a similar intelligence to the level of humans.

This is not a gag this is the basis of her power.

>>29249361
Same reason you don't have the government breaking out giant robots or Superheroes showing up in Magical girl shows like Sailor moon or Madoka:
The focus of a magical girl show is on something unnatural or fantastic intruding on the "normal" world, with the heroes having to stand against it via a similar (Or the same) fantastic or unnatural powers.


The premise isn't magical kitchen sink, but focused on the abilities of the magical girls and their enemies being unique and not comparable by normal other inhabitants of the world around them.

>>29249435
There are magical girl shows with giant robots, Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha,

Also robots aren't magical, they exist in our world and are being more and more used everyday. If it is our world then it wouldn't be weird to have a villain using robots. Or if isn't our world, then it is intentionally removing elements from our world that are too fantastical enough to coexist with magic.

>>29249435
So basically the EQG world is a more mundane version of our world that relies on another world to make it as interesting as our world.

>>29249435
Those series have overarching plots which makes sense why they don't go fighting robots and aliens as that's not the goal.

EQG is a bunch of teenage girls protecting their school. It doesn't have an overarching plot so it wouldn't be out of the ordinary for them to be fighting robots and aliens. EQG has more in common with something like Gravity Falls or Courage the Cowardly Dog than Power Rangers or WITCH.
