Starlight might well be on a journey of self-discovery (it certainly seems the intention of the writers, if not the effect), but I'm having a real hard time accepting the hurt she inflicts on others in the process. Princess Twilight Sparkle's friends have now twice been forcibly mind controlled by her. Gilda did far, far less back in the day, and had to wait several seasons before redemption, whereas this one seems to be on the narrative fast track to fame and fortune.
She hasn't even had to work on a rock farm. A rock farm!
Twilight Mind Controlled all her friends in Lesson Zero. Gilda, well, part of that was she was more malicious in many ways -and the other is that Gilda comes from the time where the show still thought it was going to be 65 episodes and no more. Back then stuff like 'continuity' just didn't have a place in the show; there was still a standing order to make stuff be watchable in any order, which is one of the things that kind of went by the wayside after Season 3.
