Am I the only one who felt well... a little underwhelmed by this episode. Don't get me wrong the first part and the concept as a whole was amazing it's just...well the ending doesn't quite sit right with me. For once as people have already stated the "redeemed" villain trope has lost its charm somewhere along the lines. Also what really irked me is, well the way I see it, now Starlight Glimmer is supposed to be a stronger magical user than Twilight?! I know Twilight has the whole friendship power but being the strongest magical user is who Twilight is. It's her identity,her thing that makes her unique. I can't accept how easy it was for Starlight to defeat her and essentialy take that away from her. And now what? She will join the group? (I hope not) and be the magical one? Where does that leave Twilight? Sure she is the princess of frienship but the power of frienship comes from all of the mane six and that is the whole point. Last season finale was better in my opinion it had some real fighting and while it may not have been perfect or had as much meaning as this one it showed Twilight in her element, because while being the princess of friendship may be her role her element is magic and I think that the creator are kind of trying to take that away from her
