Re: April General Discussion: As seen in entertainment!
I will say I am not a fan of Cadance' color scheme though.

Didn't she and Shining Armor first pop up in advertising for the finale, with no hint as to their purpose in the story? Back then Celestia and Luna, the immortal sun/moon god-queens of Equestria, were the only two alicorns to exist, and then suddenly here's this weird pink one out of nowhere. I can understand why people would be upset over that.

DerFurShur wrote:More or less, but Cadance and Fleur have a few things in common that they don't share with Luna and Celestia, like their head shape, and they're both a little sleeker body-wise.

Sadly, there wasn't enough information for me to make an opinion on her... Her design was curious, yes, but I didn't see a lot... I also don't remember a lot about her.

Every season, there seems to be a pony that has a major appearance in one episode then is rarely seen again that becomes wildly popular. Coco is the pony for Season 4.
(I really like her...)

If the event were still to take place at the end of season three, it would have probably felt extremely jarring with respect to Twilight's character growth as we had seen so far. So, in that sense, introducing Cadence as a princess but not the Celestia/Luna kind of princess made it easier for a third season transformation of Twilight into a novice princess.
DerFurShur wrote:Eh to me I find Celestia a bit more interesting than her old British Wizard counterparts because unlike the two of them, her plans succeed without her having to die at any given point.
