ManaMinori 4,146 November 21, 2015 Share November 21, 2015 (edited) Let's think about it for a sec. In "it's about time", there are several factors to consider that could bring disaster, an that epic pony war in the distant future to Equestria. The first being that if it weren't for "Future Twilight" from Next Tuesday going back in the past to inform herself not to worry, The twilight of the present, at that time, never would've been informed as to the location of the time travel spells, from Future Twilight. Second, by travelling to the past to interct with herself, Future Twilight from a week later no doubt created a never-ending time loop of events that just repeat themselves from that one week, on a new timeline or dimensional superstring. And if the "Reflections" arc in the IDW comics is anything to go by, eventully time will try to right itself and merge both timelines, because Twi effed up with time travel. Then there's the little factor of the guard dog of Tartarus. We don't know just how long he was away from the gate, or if it was just Tirek who wound up free, because of it. What if in whatever amount of time that Cerberus was off his post, literally all of Tartarus broke loose (I don't recall seeing any others in cages, when Tirek sent the princesses to Tartarus, so it could be likely), or with each time in between Future Twi going back to the past, which was before we saw Cerburus appear in Ponyvile, another or a different villain escaped with each time rewind, and that the epic pony war in the distant future that Twi mentioned is just that? (Or will be, once the altered timelines that Twi caused eventully merge)? Once time converges, all the villains that escaped during the time loop cause the epic war in the distant future....

baltosaa 86 November 21, 2015 Share November 21, 2015 idk, I doubt they'd put something like a war (An actually serious war) in a show like this, as cool as it sounds.. This is a signature, and that was a post... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManaMinori 4,146 November 21, 2015 Author Share November 21, 2015 idk, I doubt they'd put something like a war (An actually serious war) in a show like this, as cool as it sounds..you mean, in spite of multiple mentions of war, yaks threatening war, war between buffalo and ponies, ponies and ponies, communism and concentration camp brainwashing, dragon ball z style throwdowns.... And the fact fact Twilight said DISTANT future, and everything in the series since season 1 has only taken place over the course on a little over a year? (Distant future could mean not even during t he course of FiM timeline, but hundreds, or thousands of years down the line) Under the Jellicle Moon- a site with cuteness, cat boys, and comic strips / Star Dreams Fanclub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm tempted to say "But that may never actually happen in the show itself", but after that Tirek fight.... Again, "Who knows" is appropriate here. This is a signature, and that was a post...

Dynamo Pad 11,524 November 22, 2015 Share November 22, 2015 I've been thinking about the "epic pony war in the distant future" happening in season 5. Your idea is pretty interesting and it sounds like something like that could happen. I was also thinking about when Starlight Glimmer escaped in the beginning of the season, I was thinking Starlight would equalize other ponies throughout Equestria, creating an equalized army of ponies. Then she would make a plan to get revenge on Twilight and cause a big battle between equalized and non equalized ponies. After seeing the promo for the finale, there were some parts that felt it might be an epic pony war, but in a different way, or something along those lines.

Pinkiest Pie 405 November 22, 2015 Share November 22, 2015 I don't know. I mean there have been predictions of it in a couple of episodes. The points you have made are logical and make sense. But the only answer I can give you as of now is. "I don't know.". 1 You might know me as: NoSupport, ilovecats292, PinkiestPie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANGEL33 87 November 22, 2015 Share November 22, 2015 I hope that doesn't happen EVER! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LunaDream 331 November 22, 2015 Share November 22, 2015 We have seen near future, like in " It's About Time". And we have also seen distant past " Princess Twilight". But the trailer to the finale seemed a lot more prophetic. It showed an example of the butterfly effect. If this didn't happen, what would happen to this. It gave a creepy aspect to it all.

MAIKUN 262 November 22, 2015 Share November 22, 2015 To be honest, if Twilight doesn't stop Starlight, then it's gonna take a few episodes in S6 to be fixed...Literally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLPFanatic34 3,235 November 23, 2015 Share November 23, 2015 I do wonder something because it seems from the Season 5 finale promo, that Starlight doesn't go back in time to stop the Sonic Rainboom, but maybe I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
