Angry Pony Rant (Spoilers)
I hated how Twilight became a princess! For one thing, ponies can be heroes without being royalty. But the writers say being a princess is earned. Fine. So be it.
But she “earned” it by writing new magic. Ponies become princesses by writing new magic?? Starswirl the Bearded must’ve been a freaking GOD. (They didn’t even show what the spell did, besides spawn princesses.) But I’m really cross about it! How come magic ponies are so special? How come Rainbow Dash doesn’t become a princess for doing the sonic rainboom? She’s the only pony to have done it EVER. How come Fluttershy doesn’t get to be a princess for reforming Discord?
Because Twilight’s the main character. Fine. But at least they could’ve given a better excuse. “She’s the princess of harmony because she understands friendship so well” would’ve been fine with me. I don’t like when you have to be born a certain species with an innate talent in magic to become a princess.
And I didn’t like that weird baseball thing on her dress either!
