You know, despite the recurring failures of communication and the surprisingly consistent family/legacy themes, I have absolutely no idea what the MLP season 7 finale could possibly be about. Aside from "Magical Mystery Cure," my least favourite finales are those of seasons 2 and 5, and those were also seasons which had almost nothing to make the finale about. But then, at least season 2's was novel for the time, and at least season 5 had Starlight. Especially looking at future synopses, I'm struggling to detect any consistent themes or arcs which could amount to a strong season finale. Maybe something will come up near the end; Twilight's anxiety about being a princess, which is what S4's finale was about, only really appeared in the last couple of episodes and even then wasn't part of the main story, so maybe it's too early to be saying this. But right now, I'm not seeing anything.

Not yet, to my understanding. I don't see how such a two-parter would be emotionally grounded, so I'm hoping for some kind of slice-of-life finale. Still want to see an episode just revolve around a big party.
@Lambdadelta Season 4 ended with Twilight finding purpose as a Princess, and season 6 ended with Starlight regaining confidence in herself. Perhaps not coincidentally, those seasons both came after big changes, whereas season 7 so far has not. I guess we could have Chrysalis, but I don't know what internal conflict that could involve.

@Lambdadelta To my eyes, season 1 still has the best finale by far. I'd like to see something simple yet somehow significant like that. Big party celebrating the six's achievements, I'm telling you.
