Bunni 1,075 April 22, 2012 Share April 22, 2012 (edited) When watching the first part of "Royal Wedding" I noticed that in Twilight's flashback, Cadence's horn was glowing blue whenever she performed magic. But that is was glowing green whenever Queen Chrysalis performed magic while being disguised as Cadence. That slightly gave it away that she was an imposter. Not that I have anything against it. Anyone else noticed that? Edited April 22, 2012 by TheBrokenToast 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Whooves™ 332 April 22, 2012 Share April 22, 2012 Hey, cartoons always do this kinda stuff, and I must admit, this was a pretty subtle give away and once again must compliment the mlp staff for making this show a whole lot more intresting. I mean, better than the classic glowing red eyes, right? 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, better than the classic glowing red eyes, right? I agree. Cartoons and video games always put these things in as a little 'easter egg' to show that she is an imposter.

MVC NVMXD JVRXD 2,406 April 22, 2012 Share April 22, 2012 I'm just glad that the creators actually took time to make little 'details' like this. But alas!- I didn't notice this I HAD TO FALL TO LOSE IT ALL BUT IN THE END IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER /WRISTS On 4/28/2013 at 8:13 PM, gooM said: Djenty...man you are crazy, but an awesome sort of crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunni 1,075 April 22, 2012 Author Share April 22, 2012 (edited) I love the little giveaways as well. Yet Queen Chrysalis caught me by surprise! Simply loved the twists in the episodes~ Edited April 22, 2012 by TheBrokenToast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomokoKuroki 1,707 April 22, 2012 Share April 22, 2012 She caught me by surprise too. I didn't see the transformation coming out like that haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Whooves™ 332 April 22, 2012 Share April 22, 2012 I hate it when they make it too easy, but the creators of mlp never cease to amaze me. They always let you try find it for yourself, but never make it easy. That's one of the reasons I have higher regard of this show rather than others. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiteshade 1,426 April 22, 2012 Share April 22, 2012 Yes there are little clues such as this throughout the series, one other example that comes to mind is where in Sisterhooves Social the "Applejack" in the races has blue eyes, which is a very very subtle giveaway (I noticed in a rewatch). 1 Warning: Signature may cause seizures, owner will sue you if you complain Nothing happens, yet everything changes.

Jadefire 2,797 April 22, 2012 Share April 22, 2012 I noticed that too. When I saw it in the synchtube chat, I joked that the fake Cadence was actually one of the Flim Flam Brothers in disguise. It seems acid-green magic is a sign that somepony is evil Or at least is a jerk. Ponysona bio, here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald Flame 381 April 22, 2012 Share April 22, 2012 I didn't notice her horn glowing during the flashback, but when I saw the green glow I thought it was a good indicator that she was an imposter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came in to say this by Whiteshade beat me to it I think (real) Cadence's glow should have been pink or lavender to go with her color scheme.

SonicMagicBoom 1 April 22, 2012 Share April 22, 2012 Up until Part 2 I just thought Cadence became a jerk. However, I was expecting some sort of transformation when Cadence told Twilight in the cave that fake Cadence was an impostor. Stuff like a cutie mark couldn't have have been faked so easily.

Champion RD92 8,658 April 22, 2012 Share April 22, 2012 I just figured she was a b****, I didn't actually think she was an imposter lol. i didn't notice her horn glowed a different color, that's actually really clever of the animators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akemi Homura 7,680 April 22, 2012 Share April 22, 2012 Impostors aside, was there any indication in the show that a unicorn's/alicorn's horn glows different colors as he/she gets older OR develops their magic? That being said, I didn't notice young Cadence's horn glowing blue instead of the green we saw in the Impostor. Then again I don't usually catch these as I'm more focused on the plot itself rather than small details (although, I end up taking the small details and try to come up with theories based on them ).

Pony Joe 583 April 22, 2012 Share April 22, 2012 Nice find! I actually did find it rather odd that her magic didn't match her color scheme, but didn't really make anything of it. That's really all there is to say on the matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iris Melody 90 April 23, 2012 Share April 23, 2012 Came in to say this by Whiteshade beat me to it I think (real) Cadence's glow should have been pink or lavender to go with her color scheme. Nice find! I actually did find it rather odd that her magic didn't match her color scheme, but didn't really make anything of it. Her blue glow matches her cutie mark... that blue heart gem. I thought it went well with her color scheme, considering blue is really pretty with all those shades of purple/pink. Pinkie Pie is my favoritest of the mane six for several reasons, but most importantly because she always has a good attitude. The others can doubt her, say somewhat unkind things, not believe her, and she just rolls with it. I also love her because her self-defined purpose in life is to make others happy. I believe her balloons cutie mark actually represents her uplifting others. Her amazing dimension bending and psychic powers are a factor, too When poor Pinkie Pie looses her mind, well, it is quite humorous. She has her own depression demons to fight, yet focuses on others. The world will be a better place when she succeeds in breaking that 4th wall! > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kreen 2 April 23, 2012 Share April 23, 2012 I noticed that, too! I just finished watching the episodes about an hour ago and was coming here to post about that, but it looks like I'm not the only one who noticed. best part is, I noticed BEFORE finishing the episode and I was all "wait a second, wasn't her magic blue? I smell something fishy..." I love it when they pay attention to details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
