Is it me or does Princess Luna hate Twilight?

[-Nobody- 519]

Luna is probably jealous thinking about how that could of been her, had she not turned evil. She may also have a bit of resentment towards Twi, since she kinda ruined her plan to rule Equestria.

[Loona 287]

Luna probably doesn't understand what Celestia sees in Twilight as a student. Luna must want a student of her own, and probably wants her own night guards. At least the Lunar Republic, can help Luna with that.

What about her bat pony guards?

 

Yea, I agree though. More jealousy stuff. Maybe... She does get her own student? That would be interesting.

[Princes Cadance 345]

I think it might be a little jealousy that Twilight has turned out great but also she might see things in a way Celestia doesn't as often when one is overjoyed at something, they often don't see details that have an impact on future events.

[poniesforfun 716]

If anyone would be jealous of Twilight it should be Rarity. Her dream was to be a princess after all. Though I think she is going to bite her lip for now like she did with that episode with Fluttershy.

[Discovery Dream 592]

She does seem rather bitter around Twi as of Season 3...maybe because her sister still gives Twilight more attention...Season 4 two-parter, maybe?!

 

Yet she appears to be happy at the actual formal coronation, unless it was just a mask.

[hawkflame 3,310]

I think it's just part of Luna's personality to be a bit more of a realist than her sister.  Because of her treatment in Luna Eclipsed, and really especially because of her experience as Nightmare Moon, I think she's less likely to believe in the best from other ponies.

since she kinda ruined her plan to rule Equestria.

 

 

 

You are aware that that wasn't Luna's plan, correct? That was Nightmare Moon's plan, who was another form of Luna that just....turned bad with 1000 years of pent up rage.

[LunarEclipse1 22]

Maybe Luna is (understandably) just a little jealous. Twilight is seen as almost closer to Celestia than she is, and this might ruffle her the wrong way with Twilight getting trusted with do much and being so important. Unfortunately, we saw what happened the last time Luna got jealous.

[GenderIsAnIllusion 2,177]

She's a female. Females tend to be jealous of females. And that was a today's lesson on feminality. The study of women. Have a nice day.

[Acchan 232]

I just think that Twilight is trusted with more and is closer to Celestia than Luna is, so Luna gets jealous.

[deleteduser12304978 71]

Keep in mind Luna was banished for 1000 years, so shes not exactly up to date with the new society, as we can clearly tell from Luna Eclipsed.

[Gravelord Neat-O 305]

Princess Luna doesn't hate anyone you fool D:< she  loves everyone equally!!!!

[silvadel 1,393]

Trixie would make a very good protege for Luna.  The redeemed who isn't totally believed and works more subtly than Twi does.  The magic of illusion and the night.

[34908734bdjofh73 61]

I don't think she "hates" Twilight, I just think she's a bit jealous.

[MLPFanatic34 3,234]

I don't know these pictures suggest that Luna doesn't hate Twilight. Also couldn't find the other picture that shows Luna smiling at Twilight as she and Celestia walk by to do the Summer Sun.

[Zekromic 1,054]

Now that would be interesting. Luna having her own apprentice. I see that being the precursor to the Equestrian Civil War if it ever were canon.

I would like Sunny Shimmer, or Trixie, or maybe one of the element's foal

[Smashboi7 12]

Well I don't care if she hates twilight or not but I like Luna better then twilight so ill be on Luna's Side

[FlitterFlutter 1,583]

I like to think that all of the ponies hate twilight.

Gasp! How can you say such things about Twilight?

 

 

 

Nah, I'm just kidding. I don't think everybody hates Twilight though. The elements of harmony are powered by friendship, yes? If the rest of the mane 6 hated Twilight (Hate is a strong emotion), then how would their power of friendship work? Twilight is obviously liked by her friends, and I don't think any of them hate her. Also, Twilight is best pony.  (Just my opinion of course)

 

Anyways, I can understand Luna being a little jealous of Twilight. I think Luna still likes Twilight though.

lol i love the picture man. i was kidding about all the outer ponies hating twilight she is my second favorite pony next the rarity. 

[pinkiefan1287 610]

I don't think Luna hates or is jealous of Twilight. She just wanted to help an empire that they failed to protect and just wants to be involved in someway. 

[Motion Spark 7,807]

for some reason I would like this to be canon, not saying that I want Luna to hate Twilight, just to give her nasty looks here and there, and Twilight's like, what did I do? XDDD

 

bad idea I know x)

[WindShear 532]

It doesnt seem to me that she hates or even dislikes Twilight in the Crystal Empire episode. it just seems to me that she was concerned about sending someone as young and inexperienced as Twilight on such a dangerous and important mission

[SanityNotIncluded 335]

Well, my personal theory is that she is jealous of Twilight simply because of the praise and recognition she's getting.

 

Think about this for a moment: You become jealous of your sister's praise because you are equally worthy of it. You try to depose her, and end up locked away for 1000 years. You realise that this was a mistake and try to gain the peoples' respect , but all you do is frighten people. So you still get no love. Then, suddenly someone comes along whose only studied her field for a year and gets the same attention and recognition as Celestia might - a regular pony no less. Surely, you could understand why she'd be silently pissed (and probably a little upset)?

 

Come to think of it, that actually makes Luna a pretty tragic character.

I think Luna was just apprehensive at the idea of using the return of freaking Pony!Satan as a Secret Test Of Character for Twilight.
