I think I saw Fluttershy wearing a Tebow jersey. At least a Broncos Tebow jersey. I didn't see Pinkie Pie, though. So that's kinda weird. I was torn because Trixie's wearing a Romo Jersey, and Twilight's wearing a Redskins jersey. No. 11, to be exact. 2 things. 1) Who the hell's no. 11? and 2) How could she do that to me? I love Dallas. I'm a Troy Aikman guy myself, though (we share the same birthday). Twilight looks like she's wearing a slightly obstructed #10 jersey, which is the number of a certain offensive rookie of the year.

Most of us don't like it a lot, but we will stick by the series no matter what.

At least they had the foresight to say "Yeah, it's happening" and give people time to get all their angry out about it... That way, the episode can be judged rationally on its own merits, and not because of the big reveal. It's like Hasbro waited for their next gap in the show to break the news and give everyone more time to get the anger out of their systems. ;D

Oh, right. I was never as "hyped" about finding out if Twilight was an alicorn or not, never figured she'd become a princess as well but damn. Honestly, going back to clues dating back to season 1, I kinda figured it would happen sooner or later, which is really why I seem to be the only one with no real issues.

Goemon: "Well, I'm impressed, Lupin. You were able to do the one thing you haven't been able to do yet: Steal the Elements of Harmony."
Jigen: "About friggin' time, too. It took you how long to steal these damn things?"
Thanks for reminding me, Jigen. But I knew I was going to steal them sooner or later. I mean, hell, I survived a royal ball, a wedding involving Changelings, an ancient threat that I helped defeat, a killer robot attack that left everyone thinking I was dead, and so many other chances.
*They look at the Elements, studying them for a bit in silence.*
Goemon: "Very fine craftsmanship. Must've took them a long time to make them. Plus, I can feel the magic within them. Very strong, indeed."
Jigen: "Alright, I can only take enough mumbo jumbo crap in one day. So, Lupin, figure out a plan when the Princesses and their men come after us?"
I haven't thought that far. But since we've got a few hideouts all across Equestria, I think we can hold out for quite a while. It'll take them a while to even try and trace our footsteps, and by then, we'll be long gone.
*He chuckles, turning into a laugh, as Jigen laughs too.*
Goemon: "Unless they have some way of detecting the magical energy these things give off, thereby being able to track us from anywhere."
*Lupin stops laughing for a moment.*
I didn't really think of that....................Crap.........

While I never thought much of it, I do agree that they were never really equal as the show tried and made them out to be since the obvious Twilight being the personal student of the princess, etc.

I feel like Season 2 made the equality and balance thing more prominent when they opened up the letter writing duties to the rest of the Mane 6 and had episodes where Twilight Sparkle didn't appear at all.

I knew Twilight becoming an alicorn was a certainty since I got into the show, but I never considered that it would happen until the end of the series.
In fact, I think the big question may be what's next? Where do we go from there?

In fact, I think the big question may be what's next? Where do we go from there? Well, there'd have to be episodes with Twilight and the rest of the Mane 6 coming to terms with the alicorn thing (hopefully these won't get misinterpreted as "pushing the other Mane 6 aside" like some are fearing). Plus there are story arcs ready to go like The Cutie Mark Crusaders actually getting the damn things and meeting Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy's families. Not to mention Discord being around semi-permanently as a chaotic neutral now.

I think there are still some possibilities since there exist stock plots that could be used for funny episodes and that don't have to use Twilight.

Well, the princess thing still does not prevent us from having a "Dark Twilight" Two-Parter.

Well, I may not look forward to it, but I don't have a real problem with it either.

No problem here other than the show still trying to make them out as equals, I think.

While it will put Twilight on a higher plane, I highly doubt it will become "The Twilight Sparkle Show gueststarring 5 other ponies".
