Jaref 344 October 1, 2014 Share October 1, 2014 It's pretty naive to expect Twilight, who's still a stranger to their world, with no magic, no knowledge of their band and no musical training as far as I know, to have all the answers to their problem. They made that very clear in the movie, and I liked it. It gave Sunset Shimmer some well deserved moments in the spotlight. They're pretty similar characters after all, as we saw in their nightly conversation. But that doesn't mean Twilight was useless, I think there was a good balance between them 1 YouTube Channel PMV's and Stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A goat 323 October 2, 2014 Share October 2, 2014 You do realize that the human world works very differently than the pony world, right? Twilight doesn't have the same powers in the human world as she does in the pony world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castle Bleck 19,518 October 2, 2014 Share October 2, 2014 You do realize that the human world works very differently than the pony world, right? Twilight doesn't have the same powers in the human world as she does in the pony world. ^This, and the fact that she was still the one who helped Sunset learn all about The Dazzlings in the first place.

TenorSounds 832 October 2, 2014 Share October 2, 2014 (edited) She was useless from the start to the end of the entire movie. Jesus Twilight, you defeated a giant worm and fought against an overpowered centaur in past, and now you get kicked so easely? I'm so scared... If the only reason you like Twilight is because she's invincible and can never be beaten, then yeah you should be worried. I shouldn't have to tell you, though, that being able to solve every problem effortlessly makes for a very boring character. I think you'll find that most fans are going to find Twilight's moments of vulnerability refreshing, as opposed to a sign of the coming apocalypse Edited October 2, 2014 by TenorSounds 1 Check out my YouTube Let's Play Channel!

Singe 2,111 October 2, 2014 Share October 2, 2014 (edited) A Mary Sue means she's good at everything and there is no limits to her capabilities. However, the human world adds an additional set of limitations which makes Twilight weaker by severely limiting her capabilities both magic and knowledge bases. At best Twilight in the Equestria Girls movies just gets the ball rolling. Then everyone else finds a way to resolve it. Twilight in FIM is great at beating the recycled conquest villains. Defender of Equestria should be second after friendship. Friendship can be rattled very easily. One episode and the Mane 5 thinks Twilight is too bossy. The only main thing to be worried about is weak Twilight being preyed upon by cardboard Flash Sentry. Edited October 2, 2014 by Singe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nulln 755 October 4, 2014 Share October 4, 2014 She wasn't disappointing in RR. She had no idea what to do, she had no magic, no equestria books to read about what might help her, and everyone just assumed that she could beat the sirens all on her own. All of that pressure got to her, of course she broke down. I like that Sunset Shimmer took control eventually, because it is really Sunset's responsibility to take care of that world now, not Twilight's. It just showed that Twilight isn't a robot and actually has feelings and a breaking point, just like anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
