>finally an episode about Celestia AND Luna
>Starring Starlight

I just can´t accept that, no way, why not Twilight?, why not?, wasn´t this the perfect opurtunity to show Twilight teaching something to Celestia, and she also has helped Luna in someways before.

This should be a Twilight episode!!!, why MLP?, why?, why is not a Twilight episode?.

I HATE THIS

Synopsis for the upcoming MLP episode A Royal Problem (quite surprising)
[-------]
Starlight Glimmer is sent to solve a friendship problem between Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. When it's clear that the problem is that the royal sisters don't appreciate on another, Starlight impulsively switches their cutie marks!

Any reason that it is made for ants or is this FAKE?!

>>29996354
Looks like he save the thumbnail from the previous thread.
>>29992164

>>29996272
Are you for real? Twilight isn't relevant anymore. She wouldn't learn or teach anything. Glimmer on the other hand needs to grow so it's a perfect opportunity to flesh her out more.

>>29996272
At least we've already had more Twilight episodes this season than we did in the last one.

>>29996272
Twilight can't into cutie mark magic, it's a special power only glimmy can because of her cutiemark

>>29996882

the cutie mark magic is not even necesary for this episode, the sisters only need a reason to take the place of the other, and that could be that Twilight suggest them to do it, and anyway they could always pull a "oh you are right spike!, Starlight taught me how to make the cutie mark exchange spell while we were offscreen!!" .

>>29996416
Look at it from a different perspective. They /can't/ do this with Twilight. She respects Celestia way too much to do anything approaching this level of impulsive and stupid with magic after Lesson Zero - unless you've suddenly decided that you're okay with character development being amnesia'd away for the sake of the plot. I'm willing to guess that you're not okay with that.

>>29997012
>unless you've suddenly decided that you're okay with character development being amnesia'd away for the sake of the plot.
That's literally what they do with Glimmer every two months!

>>29997027
>That's literally what they do with Glimmer every two months!

Glimmer never learned not to magic her problems away. It's been her go-to solution for everything since forever, and most of the time it works pretty good because magic is OP as fuck in Equestria. If she had a perfect understanding of interpersonal boundaries you'd lock her out of doing any of that forever, and it really doesn't all come in one big step.

>>29997012
Why do it with magic then? Is it too much for them to write Twilight just using her previous experience and, you know, being smart/a smartass to drive a plot of two sisters having an argument? Or are we STILL using "hurr glim can't just not magic it away" even though it was solved in ABU?

I don't see how you could write Twilight into this position without making a serious effort to bring back her sarcasm streak that doesn't feel naked and contrived.

Honestly the synopsis here doesn't make sense at another level. Why would the map, which is tied to the Elements of Harmony, send Glimmer, who has no relationship to the Elements of Harmony, on any sort of mission? She's not really in great standing with anyone but Twilight from the standpoint of a mentor and is not very well adjusted.

If that happens, Hasbro and the show managers have learned nothing about character development. A fully developed and fleshed out character will write themselves. All you do is put the words of their actions on the page, because when they're their own character, you know what they'll do, for better or for worse.

I'm so fucking mad.
I cant even begin to describe it. Its like transcending past Anger only to fall straight back into it

You know what? Fuck it, this could have been done without Glimmer.

>Celestia and Luna go about their day to day
>Between their normal proceedings about their castle movements and interactions, they have some small disagreements or friction over mostly ignorable exchanges
>They both pass it off, thinking that its not a big deal.

>However as their day goes on and more important shit comes up that they cannot agree on and their disagreements become full on bickering with potential magic shenanigans much to the horror of those who can only witness as they excuse themselves

>Eventually they force a timeout and depart from each other to vent until a solution can be had with calmer heads prevailing

>Celestia paces back and forth in her room, only to happen upon a scroll
>Its one of Twilights from one of her various friendship lessons

>She ends up going through a number of those, briefly experiencing the lessons she and her friends overcame throughout the season

>Celestia goes to Luna, who's still a little angry, but calmer and she levels with her, using the lessons she gleaned from Twilight to help mend the situation
>Princesses make up and come to a unanimous decision

>Just comfy slice of life with Princesses and no Poochie to ruin it.

BUT NO
THIS >>29996118
IS WHAT HAPPENS
FUCKING WHY

>>29997191
She could get a crown in the next 2 seasons but, wing her would be pointless, she can already fly

>>29997191
Adding to this, it's apparent that Glimmer is not ready or worthy of wings and responsibility.

>>29997207
If it's any consolation the episode smells like a ruse and the source has no track record of accuracy to their name as yet.

>>29997218
She'll get them anyway, just because she interacts with some super magic chain reaction upon beating or reforming the next big bad.
Just watch.

Is it just a meme to hate glim? I mean shit, this is exactly what I wanted.

>>29997235
People hate Glim because they want their favorites of the Mane Six to drive the shenanigans, not newcomers.

>>29997235
It's only really mad and delusional Shimmerfags
Ignore them

>>29997191
If they really wanted Starlight to be The Newer Twilight they have already failed right from the start by butchering the reformation. For the entire S6 they've shown that they don't really care about Starlight apart from some mandatory screentime. And now we're getting episode that should've been in S6 before her graduation. It's fucked and there's no salvaging her progression. So I can't rule out the possibility that they'll just say "fuck it" and slap wings on her this or the next season. We are two seasons into "magic doesn't solve problems" development, reminded of her terrible past every single episode, I don't think they actually know what they even want to do with her.

>>29997207
We're 3-4 seasons beyond the point of an episode like that happening. Prepare to get Glimmed boi.

>>29996118
I just realized how much this premise made me die inside, it's like a joke you'd pull on somebody.

>>29997250
No, there are actual fans of the show who hate your fuckawful OC too, Mike.

Twilight would side with Celestia without a second thought, far too biased.

>>29997242
My waif since season 2 is one of the main 6. That being said, the show needs a change. I think a new main character or even a whole new cast could be a great thing.

>>29997250
Shim was ok, but I refuse to promote anything to do with eqg. Not because I hate it, rainbow rocks and canterlot games were pretty good, but it's cancer on our equine board. I mean, people here unironically want human vag now.

>already implied with Pinkie in Rock Solid Friendship (it's like she was baiting Glimmer)

>>29997269
I don't think I agree with you about Glimmer being forced or obligatory. The premier was about being a mentor, and she was an effective vehicle for learning more about Twilight and Celestia alike.

All Bottled Up was a great character development episode to add more depth to both Trixie and Glimmer, highlighting the latter's tendency to rely on magic to solve her interpersonal problems and adding an element of egotism and ditziness to Trixie.
Rock Solid Friendship kept the trend of Glimmer being her own mare, not being as open with her feelings and while being unexpectedly thrown into circumstances, found herself enjoying her new company and making friends despite Pinkie completely missing the forest for the trees.
All in all, I think the writers know exactly what they're doing with Starlight Glimmer. I've been enjoying her screen time so far.

Unconfirmed or not, it's sad that we're at the point where something this awful seems plausible.

>>29997359
Not really. Trixie and Glimmer met on their own and by chance at the spa, at a time when Twilight was asking Starlight to find a friend - and the conflict driver was Twilight's past with Trixie.

Rock Solid Friendship involved Pinkie Pie shoving friendship down Maud and Starlight's throats, even though they actually found themselves getting along quite well. They're similar in that they're both friend-building episodes with a member of the Mane Six using their past to make things difficult, but they both felt believable and told their own stories.

>>29997335
I like how your logic is that because people weren't immediately attracted to horsepussy that it somehow makes it acceptable to be on mlp now and not like horsepussy. If you spent more time here and less time looking at old screen caps you'd understand what board culture is

>Basically zero conflict

>"Oi! We coulda 'ad comfy shite like this, lads!"
The show is trash now, but that's neither comfy nor interesting. A good episode is made by establishing your conflict withing the first few minutes of the show. We only have a twenty-two minutes, so if we spend fifteen of them gradually working up to a minor spat, then we have an extremely dull screenplay on our hands. Nobody recommends writing that kind of boring tripe.

Here's what you actually want:

INT. ROYAL CASTLE
Warm and fuzzy morning as Celestia sips a coffee and majestically raises the sun. Luna dramatically yanks the sun back down.

LUNA
We still have five minutes sister.

Like that, see? BAM! Fucking conflict on page one. Roll intro and then escalate that further so that there's something goddamned going on and there's an actual story for the remaining twenty minutes.

I am so sick of watching this show expositing the whole conflict and yet STILL spending five minutes to explain what it is we're supposed to care about. You just know that this episode is going to open with Glimmer getting a letter, then spending the whole intro reading from the script what the conflict of the episode is supposed to be.

Of course the Yaks won't be able to handle snowy weather without the ponies. Ponies are morally and intellectually superior in all ways to every other race in Equestria. Nothing is equal to or above ponies. That's why they call it "My Little Pony", because the ponies are the biggest, baddest species in existence and the world is their bitch.

Seriously though, how can they do this? How can they think that another episode where Starlight is a fucking sociopath unable to understand that she mustn't use her magic on others is a good idea?

I mean, seriously, how the fuck do they think that Starlight, a character with zero empathy, can "teach" other ponies to put themselves in someone else's shoes? Starlight is so fucking stupid that she literally can't understand that she mustn't mess with other ponies' cutie marks or control their minds, but are we supposed to believe that out of all the ponies SHE is the one who will teach EMPATHY to THE FUCKING ROYAL SISTERS? SERIOUSLY?

Are they even trying? To this moment I was hopeful about season 7. They even managed to do something acceptable with the baby episode, and it was a huge challenge. I wanted to believe in the Lady Writers, really. But if they're going to keep using the same retarded shit that Haber used to ruin season 6, fuck this shit. Burn this show to the ground, there's no hope left anymore. Fuck. This. Shit.

>I mean, seriously, how the fuck do they think that Starlight, a character with zero empathy, can "teach" other ponies
Twilight has five total friends and she gets to teach friendship. She's the PRINCESS of friendship. Most of her lessons barely even work outside a very, very ultra-specific context.

I don't give a fuck. Let Pinkie teach geometry to disadvantaged griffons. Let Fluttershy get pregnant. I kind of wish the show would go careening off the rails. At least it wouldn't be boring.

>>30001410
>Seriously though, how can they do this?
I have a feeling that this is another one of those scripts/episode ideas from much earlier in the show's life that was on the shelf, exceot there was a gifted purple unicorn that was learning to be more sociable. Problem is, she's now a Princess. Of Friendship. So why would we want to see a boring old interaction between them about responsibility of ruling and shit, we can just be told that alot of it happened offscreen, like with that Princess summit in EQG1.

>>30001441
>The episode will be written by Neal Dusedau
Does it even matter? Not even Larson or AKR would be able to make a good episode out of such a completely retarded premise. At least giving stupid episodes to stupid writers would mean that those stupid writers wouldn't be able to ruin episodes with good premises. It's great that Princess Spike was written by Dusedau, I wish that Dave Rapp would have written only episodes with stupid premises instead of episodes with interesting premises that literally any other writer could have done a million times better.

>>30001478
Do MLP princesses actually do any governing, though? Twilight considered three minor errands a "big day" with "a lot to do". She had three hours to pick up cupcakes and treated it like a serious undertaking. There's no way she can be burdened by real responsibilities if that's how she thinks.

And does Celestia really govern? Or do you think maybe the title is ceremonial, and Canterlot is run by a mayor. Maybe Equestria is just a series of city states with open borders to each other.

>>30001289
All I care about is that the conflict of the episode specifically deals with some emotional turmoil of Celestia. That's what makes it a Celestia episode. (And Luna I guess, but fuck that, she already had 3 episodes dealing with her emotional states)

>>30001496
Celestia's job is probably similar to the UK's monarchy, only with a lot more agency and power.
Of the top of my head celestia's duties would probably include
>Physically raising the sun
>Diplomacy with other nations
>overseeing the government from a top level perspective
>Ceremonial duties (Such as the summer sun celebration)
>Directly intervening in a crisis should need arise (even though we never see it or she's worfed)
>Fighting in a conflict.
Though unlikely to happen, i dont really see Celestia as the type of leader to issue orders from the safety of the castle, she only did that with Tirek due to the unique threat he posed to magical beings.

>>30001561
This all sounds like headcanon, though. We've never seen Twilight do most of those things. Maybe diplomacy, loosely. Any conflicts she resolved was part of her job as the element of harmony. I'm not even sure if Celestia always raises the sun, since it seems it's fine for her to go to the Crystal Kingdom and faff around there for a few days.

I know it's a sort of implied part of the job, but lately I've taken the perspective that we shouldn't assume positive qualities about the characters unless the show specifically tells us they have them. Like, we assumed the Wonderbolts were this big thing, but then surprise, they weren't. The Wonderbolts don't do anything, so it's no big deal that Dash joined them.

Maybe Celestia is the same way? Like we'd expect her to be important, but maybe if we got an episode, it'd turn out she doesn't do anything.

>>30001561
Also Celestia had, what? Centuries to think up a plan in case Tirek escaped? I'm not really sure we can fairly say anything about what Celestia actually does. She's Celestia. So far all we've watched her do is get defeated and give out vague, slightly impractical advice.

>Their presence and interaction will be the only thing to keep the episode afloat when she inevitably drags it down.
HA! You think Starlight is the one bringing the show down? It's not her. It's the way the other ponies treat her. Like she's this new kid and they all have to teach her how to do things, but every time they teach her something the ponies fumble over it and prove they haven't grown up even a little. It's agonizing to watch. Awful to see the mane six acting like authority figures when you know how wrong they are, and how if they left Starlight alone completely she'd be better off. I mean HOLY SHIT, we even had the episode where Our Town's inhabitants told Glimmer they want her to come back and run their lives again because they were happier before the friendship brigade came in and divorced them from the cult-like community they were trying to be a part of.

>>30002515
>HA! You think Starlight is the one bringing the show down? It's not her. It's the way the other ponies treat her.

Its her inclusion that brings shit down, my dude. I agree with you on your other point, but I just really REALLY wished we got an episode just with the sisters creating and resolving their own conflict.

Especially if said conflict isn't brought about by Starlight ONCE AGAIN using her magic haphazardly for the umpteenth time after supposedly learning to not do that shit.

Whats wrong with starlight? I like her. Why don't you like what I like? Stupid faggets!

I don't care if she's ugly, annoying voiced, retarded or a Mary Sue. What I hate the most is that they turned a cute show about friendly ponies into a show where one of the main characters is a sociopath without empathy who literally can't learn. Sociopaths aren't cute. Seeing a sociopath hurting again and again the ponies I like without anyone trying to stop her ever is painful. This isn't friendship, this is masochism, and I hate it. Starlight is the opposite of everything I loved in the show.

This is just awful.

He is indeed. But at least Discord is able to understand when he fucks up, and he could stop being a dick eventually. But Glimmer literally can't learn, she'll be the same forever.

Both are terrible friends, Discord is a fucking sadist and he could hurt you at any time, but at least you know that he's more annoying that dangerous. But Glimmer is a fucking monkey with a crossbow, and that makes her much more dangerous.

>>30006554
>that the student prodigy to the supposed god-empress can't do
Just because we haven't seen her do it doesn't mean she can't.

>>30007096
Because they can still do something with Starlight. Whatever Starlight's ambitions are, they haven't been reached yet. The same is true of Trixie, who's making more appearances, and of Maud, who made a decent recent episode.

I personally hate the mane six by now. I'm tired of "full on friendship". They never fight, they never struggle, and they're boring. All of "Fluttershy Leans In" was Fluttershy waiting for the problem to get out of hand, then shutting it down on the spot. There was no rising tension and it took them most of the episode to reach the conflict of "nobody does what I want" because they felt the need to establish all this background info about the vet and why the animals were staying with the vet.

>>30007302
From what we've seen so far, the safest thing is to assume the god-empress can't and doesn't do it - whatever "it" is. Celestia can't make a sandwich without being defeated and needing to call for help.

>>30007338
>they can still do something with Starlight
And yet all they do with Starlight is present her as a sociopath who repeatedly keeps on doing bad things to other ponies and seems unable to learn that she shouldn't do the things she does.

I'd rather have a million episodes with "Fluttershy learns to be assertive again" than this fucking "Starlight learns not to be a unsympathetic sociopath" shit one more time.

>At least Twilight learned from her mistakes
But she didn't, though. Twilight's arc is unfair because it reached its conclusion immediately in a magical explosion, and then her entire personality changed so that she we wouldn't sperg out as much. There wasn't really a feeling of growth or coming of age.

The same could be said of Rarity and Dash. They didn't really change anything they were doing or grow into their arcs. Rarity just opened her boutique and that was it. Dash applied for the Wonderbolts and she was in. It was that easy all along.

Even "Fluttershy learns to be assertive" is kind of dumb. I've known people who are averse to conflict and they spend their ENTIRE LIVES trying to find non-confrontational ways to handle their problems. You don't learn a lesson and in a single day forget every strategy you ever devised to live the way you've always lived. Those of you saying the characters need to "learn from past episodes" are retarded. People change, but not THAT much, and certainly not from a single mistake. People develop bad habits because they work more often than they fail, and that makes extinguishing those habits very difficult.

>>30007405
All I'm saying is that Glimglam flying kites is a more interesting character tidbit than wondering whether or not Rarity's fourth boutique is going to be as instantly successful as the previous ones. I have legitimate questions as to when Glimglam picked up her hobby and how she found time for it, and I actually want to know them. On the other hand, I don't want to know more about the Wonderbolts; everything about the Wonderbolts has been hugely disappointing.

>>29996118
ok, so either every single one in this thread is trolling or retarded. starlight is the BEST THING to happen to this show since maud pie. twilights story is told, she mastered everything, her arc is complete. she started off as a student, became more powerful than her master, became a teacher herself... and now she is done teaching. she is an aunt, there is NOTHING else for her to do (apart from getting some flash up in her biz).. and since we cant have sunset in equestria, it is starlight by default. and she is really really great if you give her a chance. didnt do it at first, too, but she is now among my top 5 pones. she can grow still, and HAS TO grow, other than twi. the rest of the mane 6 have no conflicts left, basically, and everytime any of them are focus of a story now, it is a rehash of an old one, and/or the setup feels forced. here is what would be even better: "reboot" it with a focus on starlight, trixie, maud, luna, celestia and chrysalis. those are chars that are interesting (to me), hot (to me), and still have stuff to learn. at least onscreen. they all have emotional baggage they didnt sort through yet. im drunk already, i will stop now.
tl;dr: twilights story is over, starlight is more interesting by far now because she has ways to grow still, also she the closest thing we will get to sunset shimmer in the main series. i will lube my dick with your tears when this episode airs

One, you're a faggot.

Twilight, learn about friendship (Complete)
Rainbow, be good enough for the wonderbolts. (Complete)
Rarity, be famous and sucessful dress maker. (Complete)
Pinkie, make everyone smile (in progress)

>>30007501
>In what way has Twilight changed?
I get a little annoyed with Twilight apologists. Usually once I start going down this path, I find I'm trying to explain character consistency to someone who spends so much time reading fanfiction and the pregnancy thread that they never even knew or cared what kind of character Twilight was in the first place.

At the start of the show, Twilight was our "fish out of water" and the writers used her to tell us what was what. They also used her reactions to inform us what we should think is strange or out of place. If a pony said, "We should reform all the changelings and teach them not to eat love!" Twilight would say, "That's the dumbest thing I ever heard! It can't work for the following logical reasons!"

But then she'd be proven wrong, and that was important. Twilight grounded us and the show by doing that. She'd be there telling the obvious that by all rights, a plan to reform the changelings should not work, but then it works and we're expected to understand this came out of left field.

But instead, Twilight has been changed to be more accepting and saccharine about everything. When Spike proposes reforming a changeling, Twilight acts like it's a marvelous idea and she's proud of him, even though we in the audience were throwing our hands up and saying it made no sense. By using Twilight like this, the writers have Twilight tell the audience that trusting the changelings is the natural thing we should have all been doing from the start, and we were wrong to doubt them.

Twilight has changed vastly, both in the way she's portrayed as a personality and in the way the writers use her as a tool to communicate with their viewers. Her attitude at this stage is often more condescending to the audience than grounding, because she's usually accepting of things most people would reject, and then the show keeps proving her right and the audience wrong.

>>30007529
I'm not saying Glimglam is a return to the charm I used to love about the show. I'm just saying that it feels like she's trapped under Twilight a lot of the time, and that it feels good when she gets an episode away from Twilight only to prove Twilight's teachings are useless. I personally get a little frustrated with how the ponies keep sucking Twilight's dick about being the "friendship princess" even though Twilight knows virtually nothing about friendship outside her own very narrow personal experiences. It's goading to watch her try to teach other ponies, and it makes me feel like there's still hope for the show whenever Glimglam takes all that "training" and turns it into a trainwreck.

Of COURSE Glimmer hasn't really learned anything from Twilight or the reformation. They haven't taught her any goddamned thing. And moreover, that means there's potential there for the writers to work with. Will they put that potential to use? I don't know. I'm not confident they will, but at least the possibility still exists, and it seems like Hasbro gives them a little more flexibility to let a "reformed" villain have flaws that the rest of the cast just aren't allowed to have anymore.

>it makes me feel like there's still hope for the show whenever Glimglam takes all that "training" and turns it into a trainwreck
It should come as no surprise that for other people such trainwrecks are way too far from the original charm of the show though.

>>30007567
See, again, you're taking shitty writing and saying that makes glimmer a good character.
See >>30007603
You're saying "Oh shit works out fine when Glimmer does her own thing." meanwhile the rest of us are asking why the fuck the rest of cast are being sabotaged to make it work.
Pinkie having her annoyingness turned up to 11 in the recent episode for instance, to the point that even devout ponkfags were saying it was too much.

>>30007603
That's fair, but the original charm of the show is dead now. Twilight is preachy and sanctimonious about all this friendship stuff, and it's refreshing to see that she's not hitting the nail on the head when a pony is in need of real guidance. It means there's still a sliver of humanity left in the show, because the writing staff understands that lecturing people on "friendship" can't really make their lives 100% perfect like Twilight pretends it should.

I agree, I'd love to go back to the original charm of the show, but I don't think Twilight would allow it. If old Twilight met new Twilight, new Twilight would cock-block her on every complain and patiently solve every problem old Twilight tried to muscle through.

>>30007513

>Twilight: learn about friendship

Wasn't her arc. She knew about friendship anyway. Her arc was more about understanding how magic worked as a whole.

>Rainbow being good enough for the Wonderbolts

She ALWAYS was. She's been the fastest pone since she was a fillie. Her arc was more about solving her personality issues hence why her primary issue maintains. The only lasting development she had was Tank and that was acquiring a pet. She still judges others on 1 merit and not taking the time to judge them as a whole. Her arrogance has now been made her primary asset and season 6 proved it with her not learning anything.

>rarity: be a dress maker

Yes. Rarity has achieved her 'goal' despite already being a relatively famous dress maker from the onset. She never solved her issue of greed and manipulation.

>Pinkie: Making everyone smile

Not her goal. Only making people smile when they are around her or she'd go Cheese Sandwich mode and travel. Her character flaws are still present from season 2 when she should have learned to not be insanely obnoxious. Instead she has been flanderised.

>Fluttershy

Solved her entire character issues by mid season 2(?) in a single episode. She has been flanderised to be as simple as possible.

>AJ

AJ never had ANY goals. She was always the most based Pony from the Mane 6. She covers 4 of the elements by her own proximity.

The original 3 seasons attempted to remedy the character flaws with moral lessons. 4 - 6 just ruined the majority of the Mane 6 in the name of extending an already exhausted series.

Glimmer is literally the only 'new' thing they've done that's original. People expect instantaneous change when no other character has had that aside from Thorax.

Even Discord went straight back to being evil when he was coaxed

Not apologising for how Glimmer is portrayed but her abusing her magic makes more sense than Twilight telling her Trixie might tempt her back to evil while she hangs with Discord.

Look, it's your fault for still trying to be a Ponkfag or for caring about any of the mane cast for this long. Maybe if you've been reading a lot of fanfiction, you haven't noticed what's happened, but those characters are like pod creatures. They haven't been themselves for years.

Do you remember when Fluttershy used to be passive-aggressive and quietly resentful, and that hidden anger might have been part of what gave "the stare" it's power? Do you even remember "the stare"? Most people don't remember this shit. It's been so long.

>>30007522
>Twilight apologists
It's funny how you automatically assume this. Maybe it's you who's acting condescending here?
>But then she'd be proven wrong
Name at least five instances of an episode being resolved by that.
>Twilight has been changed to be more accepting and saccharine about everything
Name at least five instances of an episode being resolved by that.

>It can't work for the following logical reasons
Which are what? What is it about changelings that is known to the characters that contradicts the idea that they can be reformed? Granted this episode rushed it but that more of a storytelling problem than a character problem.

This whole point is based around the idea that Twilight should always remain sceptical about everything. Which basically means never learning anything. She can't be "fish out of water" forever, it's not her character trait. She was defined not by being an outsider, but learning not to be one.
What she represents is a whole another thing and I agree that she's used to progress the plot faster too much. Her words have a lot of weight now so it's easy for them to drive the point home just by using her instead of explaining it properly - like with that changeling example. That's a big problem with the writing, as reducing a character to a plot device for something to happen is bad no matter who the character is.
It has to do with her role but it doesn't come from her character. She doesn't have to be wrong all the time and she doesn't have to represent the audience all the time. And don't forget that she's basically the only character who is still suspicious of Discord even if everyone else accepted him.
Not to mention how subjective it can get. A lot of things can just be described as "retarded" in this show. What were other things you personally reject in the show? It seems like it almost borders projecting with how you describe it.

>>30007522
>>30007675
Clearly it's obvious why Twilight changed the way she did
now be like twilight my little goyim and let the refu-I mean, Changelings, into your life. They dindu nuffin and we can help them integrate.

>>30007692
What is it that you're implying here? Changelings were a culture of peace all along!

>>30007675
>Name at least five instances of Twilight being proven wrong
Did you even watch the first three seasons of the show?

>Name at least five instances of an episode being resolved by proving Twilight right
Are you even watching the show CURRENTLY?

Do you have brain damage? Skepticism doesn't prevent somebody from learning. Being skeptical is a personality trait a lot of normal humans possess. Some would say it's an essential trait for a scientist.

You have no idea what you're talking about and can't excuse bullshit this foul by saying "it's subjective".

>It's funny how you automatically assume I'm a Twilight apologist
You're sitting here apologizing for Twilight's failings as a character by saying "I'm sorry, she had to change because skeptics never learn anything". I'm not being condescending by calling you an apologist.

I'm beginning to think that they're deliberately antagonising the fandom in order to get the show cancelled. How can Hasbro look at their ratings and how the show staff behave and think that this is fine?

>>30007709
They look at the bottom line and see that little Glimmy toys are making shekels. Or something, who knows. But as long as it makes money, why stop?

>>30007717
It's gotta be making less and less money at this point. They can't possibly be this blind.

>>30007724
If the profit starts being on a downward slope they'll give her wings.

Sometimes Starlight feels like seeing your house burning to the ground. It hurts, it's terrible, and you can't do anything to stop the fire. And then I see these people saying "hey, a bonfire! let's roast some marshmallows!", and you see them enjoying with your loss, and it hurts even more, and you hate them, but it's not their fault because they didn't set your house on fire and you can't blame them. And I just want to kill myself.

>>30007724
Profit is a profit.

As long as it's selling toys and making a profit (toy profits are always lucrative to the point you can run a show at a deficit and still make money from a relatively slow toy franchise) then they won't stop running it.

Kids aren't interested in morals. They want RD being vapid. They want Ponk to be LOLFUNNY. They want Twilight as the leader. They want AJ and Rara as the funny accents.

Hasbro won't stop running the cartoon just because a bunch of neckbeards stop buying it as long as they are clearly in the green.

>>30007704
If you watch the show I'm sure you have no problem naming some examples instead of acting dismissive.

>Skepticism doesn't prevent somebody from learning
Exactly, that's why she learned her lessons in the first few seasons. The whole idea of scepticism was already adressed in S1 and even then she doesn't take most things for granted after that. I guess it's fine until she doesn't disagree with something you personally disagree, right?

>apologizing for Twilight's failings as a character
No, I just don't think those are her failings as a character. Writing maybe, I can agree with that. I have nothing to apologise for.

>>30007762
>If you watch the show I'm sure you have no problem naming some examples instead of acting dismissive.
Fuck you and your retarded fool's errand. No, I'm not going to sift through episode listings and jot down every episode where Twilight was proven wrong about something. If you legit can't think of five solid examples on your own, then choke on a dick and stop participating in the discussion, because "proving Twilight wrong" used to be the number one Equestrian pastime.

>>30007797
Well it's you who made the argument and it's you who should support it. Come on, let me help you with the episodes that had morals tied to proving Twilight wrong. We have what, FPK? That was a big one. Briddle Gossip was pretty much about that as well. Canterlot Wedding? No, that proved her right actually. WAD? was in S5 so that doesn't really count I guess. That's just off the top of my head but I'm sure you can remember more.
There is no discussion here, Anon. At this point you just dismiss everything I say and it's a dickwaving competition. There is nothing to discuss without any substance. Acting like smartasses won't let us both learn anything. Twilight learned that lesson, can you?

I can learn to spot the tells for "pontificating neckbeard", that's for sure.

I don't give a shit. Tip your hat and and tally down another mark for "internet people proven wrong that the MLP characters have changed for the worse". Your request for a time-wasting fetch quest has proven once and for all that the show's critics aren't willing to put in the effort needed to best you.

O' piteous world! That only a rhetorical opponent could appear capable of besting this anon's wit! A soul bearing substance rather than smartassery! Who will cast aside the worthless considerations of writing mechanics and screenplay models, and accept that if a person says they're fine with a character as it is now, there is no argument, literary or otherwise, which might be able to overcome that! It is a subjective opinion, and lo' is invincible! If only such an opponent also had infinite time on their hands during a week day and didn't have shit to do, and thus could pore over the synopses of all 143 episodes when provoked!

Cruel fate! Fickle fortune that never we will see such an anon.

>>30008062
>I'll have to find something else to do that Saturday.
The bright side is, now that we're getting two episodes a week thanks to Canada, we'll have another episode to discuss that weekend, and it'll be easier to pretend that this fucking abomination never existed.

Well, you obviously bothered replying. And with a post like this, no less.

You presented an accusation and asked to back it up. Because maybe I don't remember older seasons that much and I am actually in the wrong here. Maybe I do need another perspective on the character. But I guess we won't see if that's true, at least today.
>It is a subjective opinion, and lo' is invincible
Challenge it then, not me. But ooh, I'm a neckbeard, why even bother. You probably already defeated hundreds like me and just don't want to bother spelling out obvious facts like you did so many times before that. Pearls before the swine. Let me just post a meme picture to confirm that I am indeed nothing more than an instigator of an ill-willed conflict so we can be on our way then.

>>30010585
Yeah, and I bet the attack will be super rad, too. Like they'll power up they kao kai cannon and shoot it into the moon, causing the moon to come crashing down on Jim Miller. That's what I'd do if I had super powers. That and rent a motorcycle.

>>30010562
It's really fucking infuriating. Every fucking time she appears they have to find the excuse to put her on a fucking pedestal and scream how good and talented she is. They shove her down your throat in every way possible, every fucking time she has to come up with some never before seen spell or magical bullshit that makes her look better than anyone else, and everyone else ends up humiliated half of the times, like with the cutie mark rape, the "I bettered Starswirl's master spell" time travel bullshit, the mind control double bullshit, and the "hurr durr I'll put my anger in a bottle" triple bullshit. We're lucky Tirek was in S4, otherwise they probably would have had her defeating him with some random spell she pulled out of her ass, like she always does.

You're the only fags who get off to the idea of beating your waifu to death instead of loving her, and your legit thread is populated with people who claim that abuse is their way of showing her love. You have people who unironically fap to edited pictures of her bleeding and with a shiner, that are made and posted by Lector himself, among other people.
A sociopathic, mentally ill character is "loved" and idolized by a bunch of sociopathic, mentally ill people.
