Theories on Sunset Shimmer & EQG

Recommended Posts

Okay so in case it wasn't obvious by my profile picture and the title of this post...I love the EQG series and obviously more so its leading character Sunset Shimmer a bad girl turned absolute angel over the course of the 3 movies  and comics/books. Now with the end of friendship games and season 5 leaving us all with massive cliffhangers and questions that we want answered that are and not limited too:


 


Where is Human Sunset Shimmer?


How will magic continue to effect the human world?


Is Starlight Glimmer going to make an appearance in the human world and join to make the Humane 8?


Will Sunset Shimmer return home to Equestria?


What purpose will the cutie map serve now?


What about the elements of harmony?


Starswirl the breaded?!


 


So many questions but mostly here I'm gonna be focusing on EQG and good ol Sun-Butt(Not Trollestia) 


 


Now there are a few main things I'm going to touch on here


 


  • Where in the human world does Sunset live and sleep?
  • Where is human Sunset and how would she come into play?
  • Is Sunset a 7th element of harmony or have princess potential now that she isn't evil?
  • Will she return home?

 


Now the first thing is hard to talk about because in EQG we never even get so much as a hint as to where Sunny lives however in EQG it's seen in the beginning she's coming from somewhere so she has to have a home of some kind right? Since the human world is a "reflection" of the pony world it's probably safe to assume Sunset found a place that was like one in Equestria and made it her home. 


 


Now for the elephant in the room...WHERE THE HELL IS HUMAN WORLD SUNSET SHIMMER?! This to me is obviously gonna get touched on in the next EQG movie because human Twilight was shown in the last one so it only makes sense for the next movie to follow up with another human counterpart we've yet to see now another big question is...Will Human world Sunset be good or bad when they meet her? It's unclear how this would turn out but I'd really like to believe that human world Sunset is good and if not well...I guess I wouldn't mind seeing evil or bad sunset again but i prefer her as a good girl. Without a teaser to where human Sunset is its hard to speculate on this as well...I mean Hell Human Twilight got foreshadowed all the way back in the first movie if you remember so who knows?


 


Another BIG thing that is popular to talk about as it relates to Sunset is her "power level" or her potenial to become an alicorn or an element of harmony...truthfully i think both are possible and here is why:


 


Like Twilight, Sunny was Celestia's student however you could regard her as the one who fell kinda like a Naruto and Nagato thing(fans of Naruto know what i mean) only Sunny gets to live out her redemption instead of dying like Nagato(Spoiler??) But anyway with her being a former student of the god of pony-kind it's assumed and shown that Sunset has great magical power and this is proven once more in her fight against Midnight Sparkle (evil human twilight)  and before her redemption what was her goal? To be a princess and rule Equestria but after tasting the rainbow(elements of harmony) she turns good and just wants to redeem her past actions, she doesn't care about being a princess anymore...and you know the old saying? "Its when you stop wanting when you get what you want in life" The same applies here; Hell look at Twilight...her goal to me was NEVER to become a princess...she was ascended to princess status because in the eyes of Celestia she'd earned it and had apperently been molding her to this ever since and I believe that if Sunny returns home that eventually the same will follow suit and this would also be followed by Celestia and Luna's retirement as princess' with them handing their roles to Sunny and Twi


 


Now the final question is...Will she return home at all? Personally...I think so but it could happen one of two ways


 


1. Pony Sunset returns home leaving Human Sunset with the human 6


 


or 


 


2. Human Sunset goes to the pony world


 


Personally though it'd make more sense for pony Sunny to go home because the impact would be so much larger and I'm sure we'd get a tear jerking reunion between her and Tia which i wanna see so damn badly. We'll just have to wait and see what happens in Season 6 in the next EQG....which I personally think should get its own spin off series so everyone gets what they want.

1. In the EQG comics it's revealed that sunset sleeps in that book bed twilight slept for the night in EQG 1(forgot which comic it was I think it was the Christmas special)

 

2.It's kinda of a 50/50 chance wether or not we see human sunset in EQG 4, I hope we do or maybe Hasbro well never reveal her.

 

3. Idk if she will return home. In the deleted scenes for FG she did touch up on the subject about maybe going home but in the alternate ending she decides she won't but will go through the portal sometimes if she ever needs help from twilight.

 

For EQG 4 I do hope to see sunset return home and meet this human sunset, this would lead to some interesting plot and story for this series (also I'd like to see the dazzlings return :D)
