Applejacket 185 October 25, 2016 Share October 25, 2016 This went badly with a lot of people, as after My Past Is not Today a lot of people took that as a sort of self-crowning moment that defined Sunset's final ascension. But alas, after LoE we have been shown that she is indeed still unicorn. But for me, I think that's a good thing. Having another alicorn after Flurry Heart and now the rumour of another in MLP the movie 2017 would have been annoying.

Merion 783 October 25, 2016 Share October 25, 2016 (edited) Wait... She transformed into some winged supetsaiyan thingy for a brief moment, but that was it. Her ascension to alicornhood was never emphasized in any way (nor ever mentioned again), so I assumed it was temporary Edited October 25, 2016 by Merion 2 click here! ♥ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,712 October 25, 2016 Share October 25, 2016 I never considered her an alicorn anyways. Her Shimmer God Form didn't really seem like that to me, more like she had the power of one for that moment, thanks to the immense amounts of magic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggg-2 3,553 October 25, 2016 Share October 25, 2016 Those aren't alicorn wings anyway. They're PHOENIX wings, as in Sunset was reborn and rose from the ashes of her former self. 3 Don't be a nerd. Join the herd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmarston1 5,959 October 25, 2016 Share October 25, 2016 But in the promo art for Legend of Evergreen Sunset also had crystal wings, so with and the whole Daydream Shimmer incident, I could have easily seen her as an alicorn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Piranha 29,430 October 26, 2016 Share October 26, 2016 After My Past is not Today, and Daydream Shimmer, it's easy to see her as an alicorn now. Then again, her lack of wings in Legend of the Everfree suggest the opposite. Perhaps is a result of focusing on Twi yet again , or perhaps she WILL be an alicorn one day 1 Sig by Discords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss 6,233 October 26, 2016 Share October 26, 2016 But at the same time, for some reason, Sci-Twi had wings and ears even though she is not a pony which made no sense to me. I don't rule out that Sunset isn't an alicorn but I'm not saying she is either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K1539 47 October 26, 2016 Share October 26, 2016 When did she turn into an alicorn? I thought she gave up Ponyhood for good and became a raging she-demon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss 6,233 October 26, 2016 Share October 26, 2016 The other mane five in this universe aren't ponies either... Oh wait XD Ur right ahaha. But my main point was mostly surrounding around the fact that Sci-twi had wings. So that means her human form or whatever became an alicorn at some point which makes no sense.

Ganondorf8 11,349 October 26, 2016 Share October 26, 2016 Daydream Shimmer had wings although those were energy based according to the commentary from the directors. On the subject of Sunset not being an alicorn, I think deep down she feels like she still isn't worthy because of what happened between her and Celestia. I know she's done a lot of good since reforming but maybe she doesn't think it's enough. I'm actually curious as to what the directors have to say provided they do. I'm also interested in them explaining Sci-Twi's wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Applejacket 185 October 26, 2016 Author Share October 26, 2016 What I don't understand is why a lot of people are angry Sci-Twi has wings now. Wasn't that inevitable as Twilight Sparkle changed from a unicorn to alicorn, thus so would her parallel self?! 2 Memes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's alot of salt on 4chan from Shimmer fans over twilight supposedly "Displacing" her as the central character, and the alicorn status is seen as the "Gold star" indicator of who's the central figure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmeraldStar04 250 October 28, 2016 Share October 28, 2016 She probably never got the Alicorn transformation anyway, which might be part of why she was mad at Celestia for not giving her full power. https://mlpforums.com/topic/158860-emerald-stars-crazy-adventure/- My Fanfic, featuring my OC Emerald Star and his Stand, Grey Justice.

From what I can see, Sunset still remains as the central character in Equestria Girls yet now shares that spotlight with Sci-Twi. Sure, she doesn't have wings when she pony-ups but I attribute that to her feeling she isn't deserving of being an alicorn due to still having doubt over what happened in the past.

You would not believe how much salt THIS image conjured XD It figures that both 4chan and Derpibooru would think along those lines. That image? I personally see nothing wrong with it. I view it as an ascension of their magic resulting in new forms that reflect a magical girl trope that's slowly become more evident with each movie. And yet, I'll take your word for it regarding their reaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not the overall look, its that it was a leaked image from before the brazillians showing of it and it confirmed that Sunset wouldn't have wings.

Jeric 46,857 May 24, 2017 Share May 24, 2017 This topic is going to finally be laid to rest soon. Thank Celestia too. I've gotten into more heated debates over this than Starlight or Rarity ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
