Enjoy, i really put a lot of thought in this . At least some i'm pretty sure .
My biggest concern about Twilight now is that the previous Seasons explored her Character Flaws .
It made her fit with the rest of the cast and this is why i liked her .
If her "fulfilling her Destiny" means that she has risen above normal Ponies making her a true leader like Celestia (Celestia did say that Twilight is her equal) i'm afraid that she becomes an even less interesting Character than she already is now .
I saw the removal of her Character flaws in Season 3 already for example : Her Breathing Exercises in "Games Ponies Play" serve no other purpose than to keep her from freaking out, i mean what was the point of that ?
All it did was build up to a joke when her Breathing fails and she freaks out anyway (and it was funny) It's still not worth it.
What kind of Episodes can you write for this kind of powerful Character ?
I am afraid that Season 4 will consist of Twilight simply solving every Problem instead of focusing on her Character .
And what did you all like about the Show ?
The Characters or the Adventure ?
It would be dissapointing if Twilights flaws dissapear and the Writers rely too much on Adventureous Episodes
to cover up what a bland Character Twilight is now .
She could still try to convince her friends that she's still herself but that is no Character flaw it's just a special situation .
Twilight was a dork, she is smart and knows a lot of things but she's a social dork and this stark contrast is what made me like and care about her in the first place .
