Will we be presented with canon shipping for the Mane 6?

Will the Mane 6 fall in love? I really hope this ties in with s7. Would you guys like to see them fall in love? I think they're defiantly old enough, and if Barbie can have some smooching scenes, so can MLP. Also, with the end of FIM rumour floating around the place, it would be nice to have the Mane 6 loved and settled before the grand Finale.

I feel like I've seen this question before...for pretty much every season ever. :P

 

 I really doubt it, the show is called "Friendship is Magic" after all, and the main focus is on friendship's. While it's not entirely impossible, as their have been some aspects of romance before, I don't think all the mane six are just going to get paired up.

 

Also, the "End of FIM" rumor is just a rumor. Next year we're getting a 7th season, a movie, and some EQG specials. That makes it seem more like Hasbro is wanting to put out even more MLP in the future, not end it.

Despite that I think the movie will have Disney influences, I doubt that romance will be in the movie. In the more teen-centered EG makes more sense, but FiM is not mandatory

Before I saw LoE I would agree with what you are all saying, but after the Timber/Twi moment at the end I've had a few thoughts otherwise. I'm not sure, I like to hear other people's opinions so it helps me make up my own.

No. NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS!!!! (well except Fluttercord of course  :wub: )

There is really only 2 ponies who could have a romantic relationship (3 if you count Fluttercord), and those being Twilight and Rarity. Twilight would obviously date Flash Sentry (as much as I hate to admit it), and Rarity... Who knows? But those are the only 2 that could possibly get a boyfriend, because seriously... Can you imagine Pinkie Pie or Rainbow Dash having a boyfriend? That is just ridiculous and totally against there characters. Though Applejack is also extremely absurd. It has been shown multiple times that Applejack is an independent women who does not need a man in her life! Either that, or she is just lesbian. Though I would prefer the first. It makes her seem more awesome.

 

Regardless, it is highly unlikely that any of the mane 6 will get into a romantic relationship. MLP:FIM is friendship. Romance might complicate the mix (other than secondary romance). Besides, even if it were not for that, it would still probably not happen since the romances in Equestria Girls did not go over well with the audience.

 

Though seriously, I hate romance... That is the one genre I hate...  :diamondtiara:

I doubt it. Romance has never been a big theme in the show. When they did experiment with giving Twilight a love interest in Equestria Girls, the response they got wasn't exactly encouraging.

 

I'd rather they didn't anyway. Romantic sub-plots tend to take time away from the main narrative and I'd prefer that the movie stays focused on that.

Ok so this is from my view

 

at 9 -11 you would not believe how much pressure there is for dating it portrayed in the media that the "grown up's" (teens) do it so if you want to be grown up do this..also its "cool" to do it i think its needed to have a good role model as a kid i would have loved a good marriage role model (before you scream cadence and shining armor 1.they where in only a few episodes 2. i thought of them like my brother and his now ex finance) If you are going to have rarity flirt to manipulate and have crushes in the show ether use mr. and ms. cake or get a different ship!

Given that the show is meant to be about friendship, having the Mane Six become romantically involved with male characters would defeat the purpose of the show and make them into stereotypical lovebirds. The writers have no intention of making them experience love and I believe Hasbro feels the same way about it. The closest we're going to get would be a mild crush and nothing more.

No, and no. Romance has never been the main point of the series and they shouldn't do it now. Honestly, any romance in the movie is likely to be as awful as Brad was in EQG, or alternatively if they follow in Steven Universe's footprints and go for a same-sex couple, just a sellout to boost awareness of the movie and make more revenue.

 

A more personal reason for not wanting romance is that I don't want to see my own ships getting sunk, so no romance is better than romance with the wrong pairings.
