Could the Cutie Mark Crusaders' cutie marks be... cutie mark related?

In Bloom and Gloom, the topic of continuing to be Cutie Mark Crusaders after getting their cutie marks was brought up. In Appleoosa’s Most Wanted, the Cutie Mark Crusaders successfully helped a pony understand his cutie mark.

Could the Cutie Mark Crusaders' cutie marks have something to do with cutie marks in general?

Well, it would kind of make sense. Maybe they would be like a teacher, instead of teaching lessons, they would help them discover their cutie marks.

 

However. They are pretty terrible at finding it themselves, and are just horrible with cutie marks in general. So, yes and no.

Not exactly, their talents were hinted in Season 1 which was like 4 years ago. Even though Apple Bloom was very good at trying to make potions in Season 4.

It would be illogical for them to have the same talent and get it at the same time.

As funny as that idea is, I'm pretty sure they've already spelled out what their cutie marks are going to be about. Sweetie Belles is going to be something about singing, Scootaloo is going to have something about being a daredevil or something like that, and hopefully Appleboom gets a potion making cutie mark, cause I'd like her to be Zecora's apprentice some more, that was a nifty side story.

Looks like your prediction was right, OP. Their special talent is helping other ponies discover their talents/their CM's meaning.

I actually wanted them to get their Cutie Marks, but I still feel it was too early. I wanted it when it was closer to the end of the show's run, unless this is the end? jk XD

I used to agree with what you say, but now I understand that the show will get old fast if everything stays how it is.

 

The show is 5 years old now, that was plenty of time to show them trying to get their mark. Eventually the writers need to actually deliver. And I think the way it was handled was pretty much perfect. Now that the problem of giving the CMC their mark is over with, they can focus on different aspects of their lives.

It's definitely going to be hard to get used to, but this big change was for the better. Like Manman said, the show can now focus on different aspects of their lives, which is one of the reasons why I love the CMC.

Nope. Just a change of priorities. Now they're helping other ponies realize their marks.

You know. They DID look better as Blank Flanks instead of having their cutie marks in Today's episode, right? I wish those Forever Blank Flanks thing was canon though.

Same. I don't like their cutiemarks. It's like they all have the same talent. And that's not the point of a cutiemark. Ponies are supposed to be different. :(

Also, the delivery of the scene was eh. The irony of them getting their cutiemarks after saying they'd stop focusing on getting them. Sigh.

Yeah, it might just be a result of seeing them as blank flanks for so long, but I kinda liked them better that way.

 

Of course, I don't think it would have been as satisfying in the end if they just stayed eternal blank flanks. They had to get their CM's eventually, and I think this moment was well-earned and given a good amount time.
