No villain ever faces real consequences for their actions. Which is exactly what Faust disliked about previous generations, I might add.

That's weird since the first thing she did was to reform Luna. Also Discord (first time), Tirek, Chrysalis and Sombra (show-wise) faced consequences: imprisonment and banishment.

Twilight is a silly pony.
That's literally everything I got to say about the episode.

Spoiler: Episode 5 • show

Seems like many people liked it, at least compared to other spike episodes.
My only complaint is that Rarity and Twilight scenes in the episode felt awkward.


Spoiler: Next episode • show

I heard next episode is not coming out this week but the next one, it also seems like something important is happening, the writer wanted to the synopsis to be a secret and so far, we haven't gotten anything but the title and we already have the synopsis up to the episode 11.

Edit: lel we got the synopsis just today and I can already see certain someone ranting :v

I guess not many want to talk on negative aspects of the show or just simply ignore it. Or maybe just don't care as long as there cute ponies on the screen.

You have to remember that not everyone see Starlight's redemption as something negative.

You and I should be friends. Seriously. I can't seem to find anyone who has a similar opinion to mine when it comes to NOT REDEEMED character.

What about Guard120?

The other 2 reasons would be: Flurry Heart beaing an alicorns. I have nothing against her, but she complete destroyed headcanon that only natural alicorns are immortal. I thought Celestia and Luna were special, I thought they were naturally born alicorns! Even Luna said was suprised and said they they never seen this happening before... I'm literally destroyed inside... And speaking of royal sisters. Celestia and Luna dissapointed me. Even together they could barealy hold and failed in the end to hold snow storm. Are they really that weak? How did Twilight even beat Tirek in S4 if even combine power of 2 alicorns is not enough to stop blizzard?


Spoiler: show

M8, they were defeated by a love bug, a slime and a PLANT, plot convenience is a thing but I'm surprised it took you too long to realize they are used as "Hey, look this powerful ponies, they were defeated by this thing now you know that it's a serious thing!".
Unfortunately, this premiere had more plot conveniences than usual.

Forum mechanics. If you reply ("quote") a post, it uses that post's subject for yours (making sure "Re:" is in front). But just using "reply" at the bottom doesn't; it either uses the subject of the first post or the most recent post or maybe a name registered for the thread. (It depends on the way the forum software is written.)

You can edit your post's subject to whatever you want.

Ok then.

I do have that book and actually the Alicorn land they came from was the city of Canterlot itself. However, show canon does trump other canon if there is a conflict of continuity.

Also, there is Luna's statement that "It is beyond even our understanding." Celestia's comment is vague enough to wave off, but Luna's implies they have no experience with an Alicorn birth at all.


Spoiler: show
Then the writers probably just wanted to avoid the subject for waving it off, either because they are planning something for later/the movie, they don't know what to do with the lore yet or they want to keep it a mystery.

Guessing this is turning into the season 6 discussion thread?

Yes
Quote from: Princess Darcy on 2016 Mar 26, 15:04:46
Just posting to change the title of the thread, so someone doesn't go off making another one.

I don't know why the title changed back.




Spoiler: About EqG • show

Just like with the comics they try to not make direct references in the show, the closer you are gonna find is Flash cameo (EqG) and Babs cutiemark ("Foreshadowed" in the Comics)

Spoiler: About the Alicorn role • show

Celestia says "The birth of an Alicorn is something Equestria has never seen!"
There is an official book that says they both come from an alicorn land and not Equestria.
But then again the writers can not use that, be just inconsistent or let this the last reference we are gonna get of the alicorn lore, I guess we can just wait and see.

Spoiler: About the episode • show

Plot conveniences: The episode.
I found it funny regardless.
Starlight/Sunburst subplot was kind of nice, seems like Sunburst is good at learning but not at executing.
Starlight seems to be as unstable as I was expecting I hope they keep that.
Spike a good supporting character as always.

Twilight remembering a spell after reading it once, now that's a good memory not like me who forgets stuff pretty easily :v
Tired Shining Armor was definitly the best parts of the episode for me :v
That's all.


Spoiler: About Starlight's role • show

As Jim said her role is pretty clear.
She appears in the intro and she is living with Twilight as her new pupil.
She is main character but I wouldn't call it a mane7 as I would with the humane7
So far she seems to be as important as Spike.


Spoiler: Something in the background at the end • show


Is it a changeling holding something? Maybe a baby?
Foreshadowing?

Which wouldn't be happening if they stopped redeeming characters that don't deserve to be redeemed.

I've come to the conclusion that just want to have this discussion over and over.




Quote from: Howitzer on 2016 Mar 25, 17:29:28
We're at each other's throats and the season hasn't even started yet.

Looks like it's going to be a big one.

You have no idea.




On a more informative note:
Spoiler: About Glim Glim • show

Jim said in EqD that her role should be clear after the premiere.
So, let's see what happens with her tomorrow

I have to ask again.
Is anyone gonna make a season 6 discussion thread or are we gonna use this one?

Quote from: Guard120 on 2016 Mar 24, 13:49:31
Fine. But if you think its ok for character who bullied and hurt others to be glorified, go ahead.

What if you had been in that situation? What if Starlight Glimmer had bullied you, then left you with emotional or physical pain, possibly for the rest of your life, yet you see her become popular and successful while you are left to pick up the pieces?

That's more fair reason to hate Starlight opposite to the contrived ones that you gave before.
That's all I was asking for.
Have a good day.

I feel your pain, All I saw from season 5 was that Decades of study and devotion meant nothing because they needed a plot device because they couldn't think of anything better. shameful. And through Starlight Glimmer we learnt that vindictive hatred and malice beats the magic of friendship.

I have already made my decision.

Except that nothing of that happened. There was no plot device other that the time traveling, Twilight talked Starlight down. Twilight never used the magic of friendship because she wasn't with her friend, she used her own, as well Starlight never used "hatred and malice" she used her own magic.

If you want to leave,  leave but stop inventing reasons.





Are we gonna get a Season 6 discussion thread or...?

-sigh-
It's going to be a long year for glim glim.

Also, an almost-2minutes teaser has been released

I think the comment was more aimed towards the Star Wars portion of that statement.

Yes, that was what I meant.
Brew complained about " randomly insulting something" but only when Star Wars was referenced.
Of course, EqG is obviously more related to this discussion than Star Wars so it doesn't really count as "randomly" but I remembered that a bit too late :v

Quote from: Princess Darcy on 2016 Mar 03, 17:46:59
Well, people dislike things all the time.  Meh.  I'm not a fan of Star Wars at all.  Also not a huge fan of EQG.  I don't really have to say why, it's my personal opinion, just as they have theirs and you all have yours.  Feel free to discuss (somewhere else) your personal pros and cons to those series if their opinions bother you, idk XD

Oh, don't worry, I'm not interested in discussing preferences right now nor right here :v

Please don't randomly insult something if you know others like it. :(

Where were you when people were talking bad about EqG :v




I'm pretty sure the movie was confirmed to be pony only.
I'm guessing it's going to be full adventure :v

Okay... so... 'Siege of the Crystal Empire' MLP Comic arc. For those that read the comic, READ THIS. For those that don't read the comic, READ THIS.

You won't regret it. Probably the BEST arc in the comics so far.

Opinions on the comic aside... onto substance...

How it ended...

THAT'S how you do a reformation/redemption. NOT how it was done for dictatorship jerk Glimmer.


u wot
Spoiler: show
it pretty much came from nowhere for Sombra and hope not even regretted for almost dooming equestria

Edit: Alright I admit Sombra's redemption was better than Glimmer's BUT I still can't handle that Hope got her obviously forced happy ending almost dooming equestria with the only regret of "oh well ,the umbrun wasn't as good as I tought but I'll give them the Crystal Heart regardless"

  • Are you sure we are really ready to let Starlight back to the Village with THAT magic? she could send her People back in time!




I'm sure she can't travel back in time without that spell.
You know, the spell the map destroyed. (I wonder if the map is sentient and it simply got tired of their timetravel shenanigans :v)
