I know it might be a long shot.... · 6:16pm Apr 5th, 2018
But am I the only one who wants to see Chrysalis be reformed in a future episode of MLP: FIM?
I mean let's put it this way, it would just be awesome to see Chrysalis be Reformed for the sake of Fan Material of her as a Reformed Changeling to come true in Canon Material.
Plus for Goodness sake, We don't want her to be Evil all the time, right?
Eh, I like her the way she is really. The reformation trope is getting really old, and some just stay better as villains.
Somehow...

I don't see it happening.

In my opinion. She works better as a mixture of Maleficent and Zira from Lion King 2. XD
4833666
FYI, I happen to like the Reformation Trope.
4833668
I do too... But it's just overused at this point and not really done right since the closest that had got it right was Discord's redemption. Again, only my opinion.
4833670
ok then. as long as it's your opinion.
I'd buy it, but it would take a pretty big hit on Chrysalis to convince me it's the best thing to do. I have no idea, really, but I feel Starlight Glimmer, in the face of all the others against her, will show she is willing to lay down her own life for Chrysalis. Maybe even rescue her from being obliterated by the Princesses or Discord. That would be a reformation.
4833673
Now THAT'S an Idea!!!
Fan Fiction maybe? =3
4833711
I won't be writing it. I'm confident Glimmy will willingly throw herself into the void rather than see Chrysalis perish/be destroyed/killed, when the time comes.
4833717
ok 3=
4833720
Feel free to rag on me when the time comes, if I'm wrong.
No, not really. Some characters just work better as villains.
I like Chrysalis because she's an unrepentant sociopathic monster. Making her become good would take away so much of what makes the character entertaining.
4833725
dully noted.

Uh, sorry if that offended you.
But my genuine belief is that some villains just work better without being redeemed or having redeemable characteristics. Some villains can be written to become atoners, and others just cannot without breaking the suspension of disbelief.
And for me, Chrysalis is one of those latter ones. She has never shown any indication of remorse, guilt, or decency. She loves herself and only herself, and is selfish and cruel all the way. She enjoys what she does.
They managed to reform Discord because he developed a connection with Fluttershy. But Chrysalis has never shown any such consideration for others. She even starved her own people (hell, maybe even her own children, if you buy into her as an insect queen) for the sake of her own greed.
Maybe a rainbow blast might induce some remorse. But that would probably be the only way to go about it. She's proven too nasty to show guilt in any other way.
Would need to be pretty epic.
MLP: FiM seems to reform so many villains......Nightmare Moon, Discord, Starlight Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer (in EqG).....Tirek is back in Tartarus, Sombra was allegedly killed. I would love to see Chrysalis remain evil, she makes a truly good villain and I would love to see her remain as such. I would love to always see her as a threat waiting in the shadows.
Yes there is a lot of fan art of her being reformed and I'm sure there is fan fiction of her being reformed but there are two current FiM villains that have shown no remorse....Tirek and Chrysi. Chrysi is still free and like I said above, I would love to see her remain a villain. Also, given her personality and the fact that she has never shown any signs of remorse at all, reforming her would destroy the character. She would go from being a spectacular villain to being a lackluster changeling, well until she fought with Thorax for her crown back, then maybe the real her could return....the Chrysi most of us love.
That would feel quite unspecial. Almost all the old villains have been wiped out.
You're not the only one. I also would like to see her reformed. But at the same time, I agree with Pone_Heap in that it would have to be done in the right kind of way, and with everyone else in that some characters are better as villains.
At this point, to pull off a good Chrysalis reformation, the writers of MLP would need to take a page from the character development section of Steven Universe's book. (Look for Lightningsword's YouTube videos about the characters of Steven Universe and you'll understand why)
We'll, there's one side of me which would want Chrysalis being reformed. But if that were the case, how would she look like? Same colors?
Anyways, no idea what they will do with Chrysalis's future, but we'll just wait.

Discord rules!
Well, the leaked spoilers seem to suggest that she will change later this season, but that remains to be seen. Just be aware it is a possibility, I guess.
No reformation please -.-" I like the way the villians are if the writers reformed every villian, the show will be uninteresting.
I would like to see her reformed myself. I've read and heard the arguments that kids have to learn that not everything can be cured with a hug. That not everyone can come around to Friendship. What they overlook is there are quite a few characters who are not super villains, who have not been turned around by the message of Friendship. Spoiled Rich, Gladmane, Zesty Gourmand, and Chancellor Neighsay to name a few.
My own opinion is that since the Hive is really the only thing other than herself that she cares about, it will take a fellow Changeling, maybe little Ocellus to bring her around.

You're right :3
and after all, the subtitle of the show is that it's FRIENDSHIP is Magic

I also hate to point this out, but the show will be ending in 2019. So they have to tie up that loose end somehow. Does she get turned to stone and die? Does she go to Tartarus? I think the idea of Starlight Glimmer helping her has some merit, but I still think Ocellus will be a key factor.

No offense LunaJack, but unless we get confirmation from Hasbro, That won't happen. Besides..... Don't believe those leaks from December 2017 >:/
4848777
Sorry. I thought there was confirmation. I did hear at a Comic-Con convention that interest in the toy line has waned even though the show is still strong. I hope it keeps going. Toys R Us closing is a big blow to Hasbro but Target carries some similar stuff, so that may help.

It's okay. Believe me, It's not easy for me from that Leak storm of Future MLP Content back in December 2017. It really stresses me out :(
I'm really doing my hardest to avoid leaked content at all costs.
4849212
Being a Fluttercord shipper, I am hoping that Discord will confess his feelings for Fluttershy. I did see the leak with Big Mac and Sugarbelle and it was hinted at.
4849294
ok.
Nope. Never happened.

Still weird though.... commenting on my old blog posts.... ^^;
5184543
Why not? Can I not comment as I please?
5184551
Well, only every once in a while. Just so.... when I look back at my past things, mainly blog posts that is, and seeing how far I have come ^^

And the show. In The Canterlot Cannonball, it's interesting seeing what predictions came true and which didn't.
