Though, if the comic tie-ins are any indication it may have something to do with this guy: Maybe a team up with Chrysalis with him inevitably hijacking the plot? Personally, all I want is another Twilight's Kingdom. I've been waiting almost 3 seasons to see it replicated, and this seems like the best chance of that happening. Classic. New villain: Rule number one, 'Queen' Chrysalis: Never trust anyone, especially me. On 5/24/2017 at 3:03 PM, Daybreaker said: I hope the mane 6 don't save Equestria again. We've seen enough of that already, I think it might have something to do with 'pony of shadows', Grogar, or maybe a new villain. I really disagree with this line of thinking.

You forgot A Flurry of Emotions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There exist some people who happen to like action and adventure, and we like our action and adventure with a slice of intelligent writing on the side. Mind-blowing, I know. Do you honestly think we aren't tired of the casual "MAJOR THREAT" routine that gets resolved in two episodes? And yet you chose to dishonestly portray our interest. Hmm, what should we do about this kerfuffle? Okay, I guess I misunderstand what you're asking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but not much after the first 3 episodes, besides, I'm enjoying the new era of the show rather than seeing the whole Mane 6 do this and that all the time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavens-champion 1,893 May 26, 2017 Share May 26, 2017 It's probably unlikely, but maybe Grogar showing up and capturing Starlight, and now Twilight has to save the day. (I just know the "I-don't-want-the-main-characters-to-be-the-main-characters" crowd is going to chew me out for this.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ganondox 899 July 19, 2017 Share July 19, 2017 Okay, it's basically been confirmed now that the villain of the episode is the Pony of Shadows (who I'm guessing is that ancestor), and it's going to tie in with the Legends of Equestria series (I'm guessing he's the villain of the final comic in that series as well, also guessing the legends are ancestors of the mane six).

Steve Piranha 28,783 July 20, 2017 Share July 20, 2017 We know that Twi will fight the Pony of Shadows, so it's likely that he'll be the villain of the season, and Chrysy will attempt her revenge on Starlight in S8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just thing Trixie is going with Starlight to the changelings. If I where Hasbro I would make the return of Chrysalis so big as possible with a lot of merchendize.

Maybe, if they do it, they let it a secret and we will get bit by bit information about an intruder. Im about to border on heavy speculation and fanfiction here, but I would like it if Chrysalis openly kidnaps Trixie, knowing that Starlight can easily find out, and in a rage, Starlight goes after her, alone, going with her gut, giving her a reason not to be in the finale and also being a huge mini build up to the next 2 parter after the finale. I wish the show would do more buildup episodes, Episode 16 seems like a subtle finale buildup with the legends and all. Obviously, season 4 had the keys thing, and for Starlight, the premiere was the buildup for the finale so you didn't really need it Season 6 had The Times are a Changeling as a build up to To Where and Back Again So seeing a build up episode like that but on a larger scale for a 2 parter that is still a season away would be...great I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends what you want to do. If you give the watchers information the characters don't have, you can make it really fun to watch. But the reveal isn't that great. Otherwise you have a great reveal, but the rest of the season is less interesting. And if Starlight goes after Trixie, what would that accomplish. Don't you think the mane 6 are going with her?

Starlight can be very hot headed and not the best at thinking at a moments notice, Chrysalis would count on Starlight rushing after Trixie the second she gets captured, worried that she would be hurt by Chrysalis. Or hell, Chrysalis could pose as something less threatening so Starlight thinks she can handle the situation on her own, and rushes after Trxie anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but if the mane 6 are with her, they are definitly coming with her and if she stays away for to long they are going to search for her.

Yeah, but I think Discord will be sidelined again or some dumb mcguffin will make him useless...again Discord being reformed was great and terrible We get funny and amazing episodes like Discordant Harmony and Make New Friends... But he also can't really be useful in the 2 parters, Megham Mccarthy either subtly hinted that Discord lost to Tirek on purpose...or she nerfed the hell out of him And when he does have a major role in a two parter, he can't use his god-like powers at all. 1 minute ago, Hierok said: Yes, but if the mane 6 are with her, they are definitly coming with her and if she stays away for to long they are going to search for her.

I am confident Meghan would find a way to make everyone not named Twilight lose in a single frame. In all seriousness, finale is like a 90% chance to be written by Johanna Lewis and Kristen Songco, so that won't happen. I still would like to see Chrysalis buildup soonish though. Even if it is not as major as that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
