The real question about a Celestia episode is... what could really be a Celestia episode ?

Maybe some writters want to write one but don't find any plot and moral which can be tied in a regular episode.

 

Luna has some traits, a past and can be given a purpose in a story : she was once a vilain, regret what she did, was gone for a long time, travel throught the dreams and as such there is a lot of episode possibility with her since she as moral struggle from her past and thanks to that can also be a good mentor to the CMC in their dreams.

 

Cadance has less personnality but has the dynamic with Shinning Armor going for her (which allow to make episode about her and her husband, and her baby, and her sister-in-law etc...).

 

On the other hand... Celestia... Well she rules Equestria for long ago, is wise, can be a troll at time... But she's already a mature character who don't have a lot of struggle she didn't already deal with, a very clear position in Equestria, and a sharp mind. The only thing writters can do with her is about the pain she felt because she had to banish her sister on the moon. But we already have dealt with this in other episode accros the seasons : in some Luna's episode, but also here and there through lines spoke by Celestia... So we don't really need an other episode about that...

So...

 

I don't think a Celestia's episode can really happened because she is juste a complete character who doesn't have anything to learn, and was shown to be very good at teaching things at other ponies... What could the writters write about her ? :3

She also is the head mistress of a University for talented unicorns.

This is what the comics focus on for her, her role as a teacher.

In my opinion, the only kind of episode (besides a more in-depth backstory) that would really do Celestia's character justice is more of a slice of life episode. There is a children's book called Princess Celestia and the Summer of Royal Waves that does have a bit of action but focuses mostly on Celestia's role as a teacher. Outside of her usual executive, ceremonial, and sun-related duties, that is her occupation. Maybe the writers could could use that under-appreciated aspect of her character to write an episode.

Its honestly surprising that, despite how virtually ALL secondary materials focus on her status as a schoolteacher, the show has shown us virtually NOTHING of celestia's university :/

So why not discarding Applejack, too? She's a complete character. She doesn't have to learn anything. Bye, Applejack =D

No sorry, i couldn't accept such excuses from the writers for not even trying.

Yes, why not something like that? And no Luna to be around.

You know, it's supposed to be a episode for Celestia, not a Luna/Celestia magic map episode.
