Should Minori guest star in an episode with Rarity?

I don't think MLP is popular enough in Japan for her to be interested, so I'm going to have to say no.

yet they can make anime references in Scare Master, fashion brand ponies in Made in Manhattan, with Coco Pommel being Coco Chanel, music star references with Coloratura being Lady Gaga...

I fail to see how that's relevant. There is a big difference between a small reference here and there to an actual guest star. Plus, it was Hasbro who made the decision to include those references, and my point was that it was Minori who wouldn't be interested.

Those examples aren't relevant in the slightest since my point was that Minori probably wouldn't be interested due the the lack of popularity for FIM in Japan. Plus, one of your examples isn't even a guest star.

does the target audience of little girls like Star Trek actors or polka? Weird AL and Discord's VA guest starred in spite of that.

I don't understand how you keep missing my point. I never even mentioned the target audience.

 

Edit : But to clarify, the problem isn't Hasbro. It's that Minori probably wouldn't be interested.

Both have strong world wide brand recognition, and one is no longer used and was retconned officially.

 

If they did add fashion tie-ins, it's more likely that they would make referencins to Cardin, Pierre, or Lauren since they would be more in line with Rarity's sensibilities and also are larger with brand recognition - but you have the Pommel issue to contend with.
