Believe it or not, the Friendship Games wasn't an easy film to make. Various scenes had to be redone because of random shenanigans, misspoken lines, or general silliness.

Here's an exclusive behind the scenes look of what never made it into the movie...

This story was based off of the Friendship Games Blooper Reel that recently released.

This story is a sequel to Shadowbolts Adventures: Ask Sugarcoat

But things begin to go awry in both universes as Chaos erupts in one and World Peace erupts in the other. Can the girls convince him to go home before the human world falls apart? And will Princess Twilight allow him to come home and lose the serenity that has overcome Equestria?

One week after the Friendship Games, a small group of Crystal Prep Academy's Shadowbolts meet at Sugarcube Corner for the first, and possibly, last time.

"Gunpla is FREEDOM!"
- Meijin Kawaguchi III

Gunpla: Noun, a portmanteau of "Gundam plastic model", miniature models of massive Mobile Suits from the franchise Mobile Suit Gundam. For some Gunpla is a hobby, for others, it's practically a way of life and there is no better way to show this than by the sport of Gunpla Battle, customizing and controlling animated Gunpla and pitting them against one another in no hold barred matches.

To Sunset and her friends, however, Gunpla is a foreign world they are only just learning about and their journey into this world will be met with surprise, laughter, hardship and, most importantly of all, friendship.

[Battle Start!]

It’s Christmas time, and the Shadowbolts had lost the Friendship Games and also Twilight Sparkle to the Canterlot High School. Before they could even learn and be actual friends with Twilight, she chose her new friends over them. While it didn’t affect most of them, Lemon Zest certainly was.

It’s up to the Shadowbolt’s finest four to cheer her up on her birthday that coincided with the special holiday. Sugarcoat knew what just to give her this special time of need. A gift she would surely love, but when the other three had the same gifts, conflict ensued; after all, friendship is magic.

Forgiveness is complicated. Sometimes you need to distance yourself from the person who harmed you to let things cool down for a minute before you can even think about the idea with a clear head.
Unfortunately that's not something Princess Twilight considered when she asked her human friends to befriend the person who made their lives for the past few years a living hell immediately after her biggest attempt to destroy everything they held dear.
But there's something different, something... magical about this lonely girl hated by the entire school, and Adagio wants to keep her close so she can figure out what it is.

Written for EFNW's Scribblefest 2016 Contest.

The Friendship Games. A time-honored quadrennial competition between Crystal Preparatory High School and Canterlot High School, wherein the former traditionally trounces the latter.

Of course, that tradition had been established before the magical renaissance. Now all bets are off, and both schools have prepared for anything as best they can.

It won't be enough.
