Spitfire

Is it just me or does she seem like different people at the same body?

Everytime she appears she seems different than her other appearance.

It feels like the writers don't know what to do with her

They had something going in Wonderbolts Academy.

 

But come Rainbow Falls?

[Scootalove 10,689]

In Wonderbolts Academy, they actually did a good job with introducing her character and executing it by showing that she is a leader who is loyal, diligent, and has integrity to boot. But in Rainbow Falls, that went down the tubes.

 

In a more specific term, continuity and consistency was thrown out the window in Rainbow Falls.

Hello!

 

Being a fan of Spitfire, I try to ignore most events that occured in Rainbow Falls. I like her for the character she showed us in Wonderbolts Academy which is a character I can relate to myself in real life. I find it sad how the last episode has swayed people away from her .

I had no idea what happened in Rainbow Falls. It would've been better just using new characters, or at the very least, just leave the bad guy role to Fleetfoot

[Castle Bleck 19,440]

@Megas75,

 

They could get away with Fleetfoot, because we'd hardly seen any of her before.

Typical Alpha female imo.

 

She was quick to welcome RD when she thought her not a threat, even humbled by her saving her and the like. But the moment she found that Rainbow was not only her equal but would pass her by, she became all fangs and claws.

 

Spitefire is older, and well worn in her role of leader of the Wonderbolts. She sees a bit threat in Dashie, and doesnt like to think her time is over. Her fashion of "pushing her out of the pride" is very femine, cruel, backstabbing, and largely verbal instead of being the more typical and well known approach of a male physically forcing a younger better lion out.

 

But hey, what do I know! These are Ponies! Not Lions....right?!?!

Wonderbolts Academy is Spitfire in uniform doing her job. Rainbow Falls is her representing Cloudsdale in the Equestria games in which RD is her competitor. Characters can have different faces, when they are in a different element/environment.

[Neon Fire 473]

Yeah, I have to agree with you.  I'm not really sure where that side of her came from in Rainbow Falls.

[Talisman 31]

She's like Bon Bon's voice: different every time we see her. Rainbow Falls did not show a very pleasant facet of her. Not totally out of character, I think, but . . . disillusioning.

[ShadOBabe 19,023]

Nice, casual Spitfire at the Gala was just her relaxed party mood.

Strict, serious Spitfire at the Academy was her doing her job.

 

But then there was Spitfire at Rainbow Falls.

I could understand Spitfire being competitive, but they didn't pull it off very well in that episode. She came off as too underhanded. If anyone has a theory to back up why she was acting like this (besides the writers doing it just because SOMEONE had to provide the conflict), I'd love to hear it.

[True Rarity 1,240]

I think so, too. She's very nice at the Gala, very authoritative at the Academy, but at Rainbow Falls... Let's just say I expect more from her.

The character been ruined for me. Like everyone else said, I have no idea what they were thinking when they were putting together "Rainbow Falls". In one fell swoop, she went from cool and professional to dumb and overly douchey.
