Will Twilight get taller?


Scrumpy

Recommended Posts

I think she should stay small as she is, but maybe grow a bit as she and the mane 6 would normally, but maybe her a bit more than the others. If they were to make her taller and larger she wouldn't seem that young or "equal" to the rest of the mane 6 which would kind of ruin their balanced importance.

I think she will grow quite a bit taller, not Celestia size, but more like Cadance size. But if you think about it, Princess Celestia had a lot higher expectations for twilight than Cadance because of Twilight being her own student and all, so it would only make sense if Twilight was at least Luna size. But that's not going to happen, because then there would be an extreme height difference and power difference between Twilight and the rest of the mane six. Seriously, a Luna-height pony with godly powers against 5 other normal ponies...that would be a little extreme don't you think

Twilight Sparkle will stay the size she is because she's already taller. I don't know who had the idea of morphing her body in order to just add some wings. I noticed this change in the same Magical Mystery Cure episode and I reasured it in the first 7 minutes of Equestria Girls.

If you notice, the new Twilight has a longer neck and her chest is more curved, kinda like Luna's, her torso is longer too, the size of the head remains the same. To be honest, I don't like how Twilight looks, she had enough room on her sides for those wings, in my opinion she looks disproportionate. But that's just me.

I think if there was a spinoff/sequel series to FiM, then that would be the sort of place we'd seeTwilight Sparkle as a tall, Celestia/Luna-style Alicorn, something that took place in the future.

 

In the actual show, I don't think Twilight will get taller, but that's just my opinion I don't have real evidence to prove that she won't

Celestia and Luna are different types of Alicorns that are immortal and have ephemeral manes. Twilight and Cadance are just ponies with wings and a horn.

 

As for getting taller, I think Twilight will remain the same height, maybe an inch taller. Although she was much cuter without wings.

 

I've also noticed that there are "Big Brother" stallions such as Shining Armor, Donut Joe and Big Mac that are taller than normal stallions like Soarin, Dr Whooves, Thunderlane or Noteworthy.

 

So, what if there are "Big Sister" mares such as Cadance, Luna, even Fleur who are taller and more swanlike in structure than normal mares like Lyra or Pinkie Pie.

Some have tried to prove she's taller already, and maybe she is, but is quite subtitle, and if they did change her design I actually like it. Will she get taller? Yes, but it will take time and she won't be even Cadence's size right away.

I sincerely love this question. It supports the fact that the concept of Alicorn Twilight is so flawed and almost completely driven by the Hasbro marketing team. True, some of the writing team is on board with it because when they have lemons by God they make lemonade. However I think most of the team (including creator and past team leader Lauren Faust) were not receptive to or at least did not envision it.

 

As so the question, not I think she will remain the same height. I wouldn't be surprised if she reverts back to a unicorn some time in Season 4.

I noticed none of the previous posts had this, so I thought I'd might as well bring this up:

It's already clear that Twilight is quite a bit taller than the standard model, what with the longer legs, neck, and (if I'm not mistaken) horn.

But so what? It would be weird if she wasn't larger given that she's a princess. Yes Cadence or Luna size should not come right away, but this difference seems fine. Honestly it's not something people should be focusing on and I believe the writers that personality wise she'll be the same Twilight.

if you consider Cadence height right now then yeah if Twilight gets old enough. You have to consider that Twilight is roughly High school age ( i think this is the right age hasbro wants to portray the mane 6) and Cadence (who is taller) should be right round College age?? or maybe young adult?? so yeah given enough time (which may or may not happen in the show) twilight will get taller (although if you consider genetics her mom isnt that tall soooo....)

Ah as she get older sure but just because she became a princess doesn't mean she's just going to grow as tall as Celestia, look at Luna she's not that tall same with Cadance she's not that tall. I mean Celestia has be around a lot time and for that well she's going to be tall... over time the other well get as tall as her.

Well.. This has come to my mind before. She might grow to look like Cadence, and maybe get a more 'regal-looking' wing style, but I don't suspect that good ol' Twilight will change that much physically.

I don't think she will get taller.

I mean, look at Cadence. When Twilight matures, she may grow to be Cadence's height, but not any taller like Celestia.

 

In Alicorns, I think height has to do with status. See, Celestia is the older sister and the main ruler, so she is tallest. Then Luna is her co-ruler, so she is next tallest, but not much taller than Cadence. Cadence is also a princess and has great responsibilities (ruling over an entire empire, love, etc.) but she is not one of the sun/moon princesses, the ones that control the reeeaaallly powerful stuff. Then comes Twilight; she's a novice and doesn't rule over anything, so she's pretty much the same height that she was before.

 

But it is proven that it isn't impossible for the regular Equestrian-folk to also be tall too, with long/ slender legs. It is uncommon, but not a complete rarity. ( :P)

E.g. Mr Cake, Fleur deLis

 

 

 

 

 

In Mr. Cake's case, it may have to do with being 'grown-up'?

In Fleur deLis' case, it may have to do with elegance, which also may prove my point that Alicorns have to show superiority to the others by being taller, and more elegant, maybe. But then again, she's not an Alicorn.

It would confuse the younger viewers very much so if they saw Twilight magically (heh heh) grow. I personally think she won't grow for a long time, assuming she's not mature yet.

Actually, it's subtle, but if you look comparison the proportions to the ones here:

img-1635270-2-tumblr_mpoedh1bcz1rbvy4io2

 

 

She's actually slightly taller than before. I doubt she'll get too much taller than this, though. It's important that they keep a basic style and figure for the Mane 6 so that they are "comparable" in the kid's minds.

I took a carefull look a twilght and her friends and she is a bit taller than the rest or them but, I do not think she will be as tall as say, Princess Mia Mora Cendenza or Luna until like season ten if there will be one :wacko:

I doubt that twilight will get any taller but just hope that Hasbro doesn't get any ideas and decide that she needs to be taller, she's fine the way she is.

 

but if they do end up changing her again, that won't affect my love for the character.

I hope she doesn't get too much taller; that would turn the show from Friendship is Magic to Twilight is Magic. I would think that she will keep her same design just to keep the plot stable (haha, "stable"). If she were to grow taller, I don't know what to say. Let's hope that's the only thing that changes about her.

 

I think the first few episodes of season 4 will feature Twilight a lot since we're all want to know what will become of her now that she is an alicorn. Once everypony gets settled, the show should be a little more steady in terms of who's featured in the episodes.
