    Looking into the real life rules of a game - spoiling nothing for a chapter - in order to be basic accurate writing the game can remind you just how complex it is than on level surface!

    A Beautiful Lesson

    Sometimes we need to be reminded, just because one's not the star of the show, doesn't make them unimportant. You're all valued in one way or another, whether your role be small or big, and that's okay.

Let's Talk Gripes · 7:39am Mar 2nd, 2023

Tell me your personal gripes, not just with the finale, but anything across season nine in general. As an additional option, tell me what you would've want done to see them improved!

I don’t like how easily the legion of doom were defeated, especially Tirek. I mean he was such a menace in season 4 but in season 9 he felt nerfed to shit.

I agree. Their defeat just seemed too...final and quickly resolved.

I'd have liked to have seen each of them each come face-to-face with their unresolved pain and learn how to cope. Maybe they wouldn't be good guys, but they could have simply left and made a home for themselves elsewhere.

The LoD was just a joke. Like, seriously.

The twist.... it was completely awful. I honestly think this was the writers thinking they were smarter than they actually were.

I was disappointed Discord was using a Grogar disguise. I was honestly expecting the final battle to be with the real one, and for something like the fight with the original one to happen. I also hoped Chrysalis would actually reform.

I had no problem with any of it, other than discord being Grogar but I can see why they did that (go back to when grogar existed, he was.. well lets say he wouldn't fly in modern times)

I really find it insane that they casually imprisoned a LITERAL CHILD, i mean it was already insane that they imprisoned Cozy in Tartarus but then turning her into A GODDAMN STATUE, sure she committed Crimes, but maybe, oh i dont know, maybe she had a terrible childhood that caused her to lash out like that. There could've been an episode with the Mane 6 questioning if it was right imprisoning a CHILD like that, and having it pay off by reforming Cozy in the finale. But nah, lets imprison a crazy child with two of some of the biggest threats of Equestria, because it makes sense 👍
(Also there should've been more fighting when everyone showed up in the final battle)

I agree Cozy Glow seem misguided and hope she refuse to be part of the Legion of Doom, I also hate the fact the tree of Harmony was destroyed it seem so unnecessary it a major part of the world magic I believe that it should not be destroyed, besides even if it not destroyed I pretty sure it still can create a crystal tree house like how it create Twilight castle. Also kinda of hope Legion of doom have army of their own lead by real Grogar and Tirek with no chrysalis or Cozy glow involved with Stardust being only one fight against them with them capture mane six, discord, Celestia, Luna, Spike, and Cozy Glow, demanding that if Stardust win against them despite possibly odds alone they will let them go, which would be major mistake on their part because nothing is more scarier than father wrath. One last thing what about Zagreus what will happen to him.

Anything what about Starswirl and pillars I don't think they interact with Stardust that much wanted see how they would meet, fir Starswirl he be wary but grateful also will ask why he sense his magic within Stardust, which eventually will reveal the truth. Also the ceremony which Twilight become Queen of Equestria while Stardust become King I feel like it should be handle by him because come on let be real it was horrible and she deserved a better ceremony.

the whole "you must now lead equestria because we want to retire" bs, i mean aren't alicorns somewhat immortal ?
What is the point of retirement, twilight just got her school and is living her dream, why is celestia imposint that burden on her ?

And the fact that chrysalis was trapped in stoned when she never did anything "wrong" was expeting her to be "reformed and rejoin her hive (yes i don't like my changelings looking like butterflies)

5716327
Didn't Chrysalis try to take over Equestria and drain the love out of hundreds? You can like the character, but she's still a villain, she still did wrong.

5716395
true, but i would still have liked if chrysalis was reformed, if discord (the litteral god of chaos) can be redeemed i don't see how she coudn't but you are right chrysalis did try to take on equestria to feed her people, witch i moraly debetable, she did make some bad choices

Anyone have any idea on what would happen if rest of mane six become alicorns like how much would affect equestria in general

To be honest, I'm...unsure about this. Like...What's your opinion? I mean...Many others bring up good points about Tirek, Chrysalis, and Cozy. Especially Cozy Glow. But like, maybe they were never meant to be redeemed at all? It's...just how I feel. If you want a character to be redeemed, they need to show it and want to really want to be redeemed. Chrysalis had her chance but she blew it on the Season 6 Finale and hasn't stopped since her defeat. Tirek is an evil lord and betrayed his own ally, especially didn't care much about others...and Cozy...She's controversial and she's a little psychopath...So...yeah.

But whatever Stardust goes with this of Cozy's possible redemption, we'll have to wait and see.

5716518
I mean yeah but is because nobody take much time to understand Cozy Glow in first place.

5716248
I mean, are YOU insane? This child said that she PLANNED to go to TARTARUS. She PLANNED it. Nevermind that she told the Friendship EXPERT(Twilight) that she can SHOVE it. "Laughter, Loyalty, Generocity? Blah, blah, blah". Yeah, this MISGUIDED child, who almost killed off all the magic, in a POWER PLAY.

No, let's NOT imprison a very dangerous chessmaster, let's put her in a mental ward. Something a competent person can escape.

5716250
You must have missed the part where Cozy VERY DELIBERATLY said NO to ANYTHING TWILIGHT said. You know, the biggest authority on Friendship? "laughter, loyalty, generocity? Blah-blah-blah, I can make friends without those virtues."

Yeah, MISGUIDED my ass.

5716419
Well, this is something I disagree with. Chrysalis should have been reformed, and Discord should have stayed the Spirit of Disharmony. I mean. God of war can NOT bring peace. Spirit of Chaos can NOT do Harmony. Meanwhile Chrysalis HAD an angle of saving her people. Being horrid black scary bugs, and requiring love to survive, some sort of treaty MIGHT have been possible with Celestia, Luna, Twilight and few others. Not so much now, that she went off on revenge, and then COMPLETELY lost her marbles.

Too many things across the whole show for me to count. I can list some, though.

- Redemption of Discord. You can't redeem a spirit of disharmony. It's like having fire cool something down. Discord's NATURE is DISharmony. God of war can't bring peace, it's literally the opposite of what should be happening.

- Twilight outliving her friends. I mean, we had a PROMISE from one of the STAFF. What happens? Twilight grows in proportion of Celestia. Someone, who lived at LEAST 1000 years, and however many years BEFORE. Meanwhile what is a mortal pony's lifepsan? 100 years? I saw wrinkles and grey hair(I think) from Mane Five.

I see bags under eyes. I see gray stripe in Rarity's mane. I see Applejack's mane starting to have loose hairs.
I still call bullcrap on turning her into an alicorn. She should have become an Archmagus, alongside reformed Sunset, maybe. If anyone wants, I can start a blog, or get with willing participants in an internet chatroom, and brainstorm an alternative story.

Some other gripes from different seasons and movies.

5716547
Excuse me? B*tch, is you blind?! Taking that from a youtube short.

Cozy tells local, and BEST Friendship EXPERT point blank how she doesn't CARE.
"Honesty, Loyalty, Generocity? Blah-blah-blah"

Cozy DOESN'T GIVE A SINGLE SH*T. She is not misguided, she is DELUSIONAL at LEAST. Malicious at her worst. She needs to be behind bars. Or on heavy medication. She either KNOWS, or BELIEVES her own words. She is MENTAL. Don't really know if she's a sociopath or a psycopath, and I don't really care about distinction. The thing is she will not be MOVED with WORDS, even by someone with AUTHORITY.

5723731
By really how was she like that in first place we have no origin of her in the first place

5723736
Origin doesn't matter. We have two options here.
1) Mental. She is sick. She is delusional. She can NOT be reasoned with. Needs to be on drugs/medicine. Under heavy watch.
2) Criminal. She MIGHT be healthy. In which point we still need to arrest and place her under heavy guard, WITH punishment fitting the crime. And do I have to remind you? She tried to drain the whole realm of magic. Pegasi would not be able to fly and CONTROL WEATHER. Alicorns would not be able to control DAY/NIGHT. It would lead to collapse not only of ponies. but all other civilisations. Diamond Dogs, deer, Abissinians, hyppogryphs, changelings. ALL would die in this static world.

Given this - do you really think Cozy Glow can be REFORMED?

5723740
Same can be say for tirek Sombra Nightmare moon like come on I pretty sure she cam be reformed

5723813
Tirek is a CONQUEROR. If he is presented with a life wiping threat, he WOULD likely assist good guys. As it stands - he is tyrant. He is not DELUSIONAL, he wants power, but he doesn't hide behind fake logic. "Your magic will be mine". He knows who he is, and it's real. Sombra is also a Tyrant variety. He doesn't delude himself. Nightmare Moon... I mean, have you missed the whole MOTIVE of MOON?!?!?! She was NEGLECTED, and thought that if they wouldn't like her night - it would be forever. There are also strong HINTS(not CONFIRMATION) that Luna was POSESSED by some sort of CORRUPTION.

Meanwhile Cozy says - "I don't need PARTS of FRIENDSHIP to HAVE FRIENDS. I can have friends withOUT laughter, generocity, kindness, etc..." I mean, how do you make car go without FUEL. Or remove accumulator. Car will not START. Because FRIENDSHIP does NOT WORK without the elements(not harmony, but pieces/parts of it). Have you seen friends continue when they betray(loyalty) each other? When they are cruel(kindness) to each other? When they are greedy(generocity)? If you have - it's not friendship, it's abusive relationship.

5723820
Still knowing Jack he would everything he can to prove you wrong

5723842
Jack who? There are many characters. Doesn't change the fact that while ANY good character MIGHT turn bad, not every BAD character can turn GOOD. How many f*cking times do I need to repeat. Cozy is IGNORANT. She had Princess of EQUESTRIA(Celestia) punish her. She had Princess of FRIENDSHIP(Twilight) teaching her. She told two BIGGEST AUTHORITIES in ALL of Equestria to shut up!!! One is literal POLITICAL Princess. The other is the BIGGEST authority on FRIENDSHIP. Acknowledged by LITERAL FATE. The Harmony Tree.

If you think that someone who ignores the monarch, the best philosopher, and literal FATE can be REDEEMED - then I don't know what you have to be smoking.

5723853

Calm down. You don't need to go off on these repeated rants or insult other people for having different views, to prove your point. That's not why this blog was made.

5723999
Wel then, why does he ignore the point I repeatedly make, as you say?

5724010
Disagreement is not the same as ignoring. You might not think Cozy can be redeemed, but others do.

5724011
Dude, there must be a difference between OPINION, and FACT. You might read through my previous comments. I can repat what I said here directly to you. I can PM you with the facts. Cozy can NOT be redeemed.

5724013
You're free to believe Cozy cannot be redeemed, and that's okay. I personally don't believe Chrysalis can be redeemed, and that's equally fine. It's all subjective. You don't need to repeat yourself, here or in PM. You've made your point, quite clear. XD

5724014
Final edit.

Good job on ignoring the fact, and saying that it is opinion. I'm done here.

5724020
You're free to believe all these things. Just next time, as word of advice: Emphasizing most of your words in caps to illustrate what you're attempting to say, doesn't drive the point home. You can address your points in a calm and reasonable manner, no matter how passionate you are about them.
