I no longer think that Sunset Shimmer is paricularly important to the appeal of Equestria Girls. I think she is the least entertaining member of the main cast, because half the time she’s just a mellow voice of reason.

Because Equestria Girls lacks directions. They have no new cool plots, no new story arcs, and no directions. In Slice of life type of stories, the other girls are superior because their traits fit for those type of stories. Sunset and Twilight both fit for adventure stories, grand scale conflicts. Twilight gets new story arc every season and Sunset got none of that lately. Twilight characters are flawed so there are a lot of things to work with, Sunset, on the other hand, is nearly perfect beside her temper which is the only flaw that you can make a story from it. I think Sunset is still a mascot of Equestria Girls, without her, this show will collapse but if you think she is not particularly important to the appeal of EQG, it's not a good new.
They better give us another EQG movie, I missed the time when EQG was a very big thing.

@Sparklefan1234 I think she showed plenty of personality in the short at the theme park. Her getting mad at the ring toss is one of my favourite Equestria Girls moments.
@Lambdadelta I think Twilight thrives best in the slice-of-life stories, where she gets to be dorky and weird and not just some heroic figure. Even Sunset is better when they start to make her just another character rather than the heroic leader of the group.
Why would Equestria Girls crumble without Sunset? The main six are better characters than her and watching them in a mundane human world is a lot of fun. If anything, taking Sunset out of the equation would remove a dead weight on the show.
