Season 6 Episode Discussion [Speculation/Theories/Beware of Spoilers]

if spike ever meet his parents you would he choose to stay his real folks or twilight and the others who is also his mane family?

@Background Pony #8A46  
He’d choose Twilight and her friends.
 
Even if by some chance, Spike’s birth parents aren’t actually jerks or assholes, he’ll choose the family he was raised by, rather than the “family” that conceived him as an egg.

@ToskiHero  
i agee too he would choose twilight and his friends even to them they would really miss spike even twilight/rarity.

I swear to the old gods and the new, if they introduce yet another unicorn that is foil to Twilight Sparkle next season, I’m going to write a letter to Hasbro and DHX asking them to seek help for their obsession with Book Horse!

@Background Pony #0A50  
They’ll just destroy your letter, so good luck with that.

@ToskiHero  
I wasn’t actually going to send a letter :\  
But still, the number of characters who are just (Fill in the blank) version of Twilight is getting quite annoying.

@Vree  
Jupiter Glow.

Sunflare Blaze

Vesper Radiance

I wonder if the writers are gonna do what they did after Magical Mystery Cure and partially retcon the end of the S5 finale?
 
@Vree  
Sunlight Flicker.

@Crystal Neighybánya  

 
It’d be fucking terrible if they did.
 
I legitimately don’t think they have the funding and boundaries to make this work, let alone talent. This isn’t Twilight being able to fly and then not being able to fly, this is something that can make the cast they’ve spent 5 seasons developing look either really stupid or really two-faced.
 
Soooooo much bad is going to come out of this stupid and ignorant decision. Gah.

@ghostfacekiller39  
That’s literally the only way they could salvage Glimmer at this point.

@Crystal Neighybánya  
At what cost, though?
 
I assume you’re talking about retconning the others’ sudden acceptance of her in order to provide a more realistic angle to their reactions to her - because it was stupid of them to just throw all of their trust and friendship towards her at the end.
 
At that expense, it’d make everything the rest of the mane 6 did look insincere and two-faced, as if they were only treating her like she did due to the situation at hand and nothing else. We’ve had 4 seasons worth of them learning how to better themselves as characters and friends and 1 season of them sharing those lessons with all of those around them. All of that might as well go down the drain if you’re going to just turn them into cold and unaccepting hypocrites like this after they’ve already idiotically welcomed someone who definitely shouldn’t be trusted right off the bat with wide open arms.
 
There is no salvaging her at this point, she’s going to spend the rest of her days as the thorn in the side of this show, steadily bleeding out everything it’s accomplished so far because the writers have tapped their idea wells dry.

@ghostfacekiller39  
Quite frankly, I’d prefer it if they retconned the ending to the finale and improved upon her backstory. If not, I hope she only gets one or two appearances a season.

@Crystal Neighybánya  
I’d prefer her to be even less present than that. Maybe just go back to that little village and stick with those folks to make a callback appearance sometime in the future at most.
 
Keeping her around as even a recurring character is the best bet, but not a good one even then.

What if Starlight ends up pulling a Face Heel Turn and goes back to being “evil” again?  
Because she ends up taking Twilight’s lessons the wrong way, and tries to purge the world of all “chaos” and “disharmony” as she see things?

@ghostfacekiller39  
As much as I’d like that to happen, I think we’re stuck with the bitch.
 
@ToskiHero  
It’d certainly be in-character for her, considering that she’s a dozen cards short of a deck.

@ToskiHero  
I would rather not have the time I spent watching the finale be made entirely pointless, thank you very much.
 
 
@Crystal Neighybánya  
Maybe someone will just crush her skull with a cinder block or something, that’d be a good way to handle it as far as I care

@ghostfacekiller39  
Never said it had to happen right away.
 
Then again, you never did like Glimmer to begin with.

@ToskiHero  
Do I even like anything besides Limestone tho

@ghostfacekiller39  
At this point it’s hard to tell.

@Crystal Neighybánya
