Olsen1987 133 March 27, 2017 Share March 27, 2017 No, and yes. To be in the "mane" cast, she would need her own elements, after all, the Mane 6 consists of the bearers of the 6 elements of harmony. But considering how much screentime and important plots, i'd definitely say she's a main character of the show, like Spike, Luna, the CMC. One things for sure, she's definitely much more than a mere background character. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nth Doctor 662 March 27, 2017 Share March 27, 2017 Starlight will be a main character once she does something actually noteworthy So far, she's made one friend, enslaved her parole officers and tried to blow up Equestria She's got a long ways to go "I love deadlines.

MissDiamond 157 March 27, 2017 Share March 27, 2017 I don't see her as a character that is ever going to be a main character(in the mane 6 group), but who knows? I'd like to say No, but.... There's still a possibility since they're pushing her to be more on the screen, apparently. ~"I simply cannot let such a crime against fabulousity go uncorrected"~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi 7,870 March 27, 2017 Share March 27, 2017 I'd say she's become more important to the series as a whole, but not quite a main character yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrawnyCharger 513 April 17, 2017 Share April 17, 2017 No. I don't. I think she's been getting WAY too much focus in Season 6. But had she continued to be evil, she would have had greater potential as a main villain. Hopefully Season 7 will cut down on her focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlikeable Pony 2,698 April 18, 2017 Share April 18, 2017 Sadly, yes; She's gotten this season's premiers about her, the last season's premiers about her, and the last 2 finales about her too. I HATE her prominence, but she's gotten MORE focus in two parters than the (non-twilight) mane six at this point!

FirePuppy 735 April 18, 2017 Share April 18, 2017 Now that I see it, I could, if the writers wanted it that say, but certainly, they didn't. So now, no. I'd rather have her wait until all the Mane Six get what they still need. So far, Rarity and Rainbow Dash already have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowflame 189 April 18, 2017 Share April 18, 2017 She is not part of the mane 6 since she does not really interact with them like they do with each other. She is seperate like Spike and the CMC even if she has gotten more focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FizzyGreen 909 April 18, 2017 Share April 18, 2017 Y e s I do very much so. "You are right Starlight, you are more talented in magic than me. But talent doesn't mean, that you are privileged to have more power. It's the heart! All you need, to have power, is a heart!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Compeador 101 April 18, 2017 Share April 18, 2017 definitely not this time, she's still lack of character development, or being poor handled, she should stay as support or background character ``Born in the absurdity, fight for resist, move for seek, atone for regret, decease for the end; eventually back to start line, all beloved, hatred, dignity and honor are gone, not afraid everything is meaningless, not fear everything isn't belong to me; at the last of the destiny, still affirm the life.''

Jonquil the Wanderer 41 April 18, 2017 Share April 18, 2017 I would say that Starlight Glimmer isn't part of the mane 6 because she is not an element of harmony. She is kinda like discord, gets some main roles and episodes but not part of the mane 6. Look at all these posts Sugar-cube ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah basically the same opinion for me. She's like Spike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxy Socks 2,599 April 19, 2017 Share April 19, 2017 Yes, as she had many episodes revolving around her, and two-parters. She seems like she will continue to be that way too My OC: https://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/foxy-socks-r9861 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Trotteur Sauvage 13,051 April 19, 2017 Share April 19, 2017 No, the mane 6 will always be the mane 6. To me she'll always be a secondary character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prospekt 11,018 April 19, 2017 Share April 19, 2017 No way. Starlight Glimmer just didn't show up often enough last season to warrant being called a main character. She is more of a CMC kind of character who has a clearly defined arc and gets the occasional dedicated episode, but otherwise doesn't get much screen time. Hopefully the end of Season 6 and the two Season 7 premiere episodes are a sign that the writers are making her more of a priority. Things moved way too fast for her last season.

Jeric 46,851 April 20, 2017 Share April 20, 2017 She's a solid secondary who occasionally gets her own episode, like Spike or the CMC. I expect her to have more screen time, but until they start pairing her with AJ, Rarity, or Flutters ... I can't consider her a mane character equal to the Mane Six.

BritishBrony2012 816 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 Yes, why not. She's great, also it be like Green Rangers join up with Power Rangers. Proud British Brony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starlight was not the MC since she was central to the problem that the MC of the episode had to resolve. Trust me I would adore her being a Mane character since I absolutely adore the character now, but sadly that isn't the case. That said, the Director of the show just answered this with a 'not main character' so ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dulcet Ice Cocoa 3 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 Nah, I adore her more as a student of a princess, just like Twilight was at some point. I mean.. in future I would consider her part of the mane six, but not the elements of harmony one. Maybe she'll create her own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
