This is why Josh Haber is the best show writer, he keeps things consistent while Faust and McCarthy makes up stuff that gets forgotten after one episode

The show like most shows is bad with expanding on or showing the impact of side characters. Very few can do it right, especially animated ones. Its even harder when you have 6 main characters. I guess with AJ you can ignore her since shes just a joke/trope for Ashleigh and the cast.
>>
>>43131860
Uh no she hangs out with her old friends. Twilight can't actually go back because she has princess shit to do. Realistically she probably just sends a letter and thats it. Moon Dancer just plays buttball with her old friends minus Twilight. The episode is about not being an entitled autistic about one singular friend not showing up to your stupid birthday party. Grow up little niggas and that's a good ass message.
>>
>>43133206
Twilight sits on her ass day reading books or having baking contests with a dragon or teaching some psychotic, unhinged, maniac how to befriend people. She can make time or freeze time to make time. Besides Applejack the characters all have immense amounts of free time, even in the School of Friendship seasons.

Is ass day purely sitting around reading books? Because if so I'm halfway there.

>I guess with AJ you can ignore her since shes just a joke/trope for Ashleigh and the cast.
It's so sad how AJ was treated like that when she's honestly a more interesting character than most of the other m6. Ironically enough, the showrunners not really caring for her kinda is what made her a better character, ultimately.
>>
>>43131860
Except the pilot episode didn't even imply those ponies were her friends. They came to her with an invitation that she declined because she wanted to read. Later in the episode Twilight was sent to Ponyville to make friends.
>Oh, sorry, girls... I've got a lot of studying to catch up on.
>My dear Twilight, there is more to a young pony's life than studying
>And, I have an even more essential task for you to complete: make some friends!
And yet you insist
>Twilight abandoning her old friend(s)
Where does this even come from? I honestly think this whole episode is one of the worst writing mistakes in G4, and the reactions I see to it, including yours, do not make sense to me.

Inviting someone to a party is very much an implication of acquaintance and the very point of the episode is that not all friendships have to be the extremely close mane 6 kind.
>>
>>43134173
It is a retcon but it's worth saying that I don't think Twilight even really conceived of them as friends at the time. If you asked student Twilight she'd probably say something like:
>"Oh, those are the ponies that I talk to at school."
I think it's believable enough to work based on what we see of her character in season one, it's not completely redefining her character beyond giving clear details of just how bad she was at friendship before moving to Ponyville.

I remember seeing a green about unicorn anonymous trying to work on a portal back home while in the School for Gifted Unicorns and at the end Moondancer intentionally made it not work so she'd have unicorn anon for herself, unf I love her.

You know she is actually one of the cuter pony toys from g1. They should've used her more in g4 even if only for a small scene here or there. It's a nice color palette.

A show with six main characters should make it EASIER, because you don't have to justify a single individual interacting with several dozen different characters.
>>
>>43131860
She served her purpose, an absence of further episodes doesn't imply Twilight abandons her again. Maybe if half the budget wasn't wasted on barbieshit we'd have gotten shorts featuring the side characters. Would've been cool to see more of Celestia's school and whatnot.

I'm 100% sure, to this day, that Amending Fences was a massive episode excuse for Twilight to finally come out of the closet.
I mean, Moondancer took that whole "didn't come to your party" thing to heart. And that's too much for a person who is "just a friend".
>>
>>43131860
>probably one of the worst writing mistakes in this fucking show
Not even close

>>43138171
Enough to consider it relevant.
They casually cross paths and she tells Twilight about the librarian she's trying to find. This is more than what many other writers did for fan-favorite characters.
While I'm not a berrowfag and I think G% sucks, I do find some of the hatred she receives to be sort of undeserved. In general terms (averaging writing and story editing), she was the most competent of the nu-crew to be show-runner.
Based on her work for DC Superhero Girls (2019), she does have theoretical understanding of Faust and Larson's approach to story-telling (unlike Haber and Vogel), even if she fails in practical and creative terms when under a shitty lead writer or as the leader herself.
She's at her best when playing the role of an assistant for the crew or as a minor writer under a competent showrunner.

>>43131875
I really miss him. I hope he gets to write for a good show once again.
>>
>>43145601
Its harder because you have to characterize all of them and this can only be done by competent writing staff. Something like ATLA has 4 main characters, 5 after the first season and needs to include ample time to explore their personalities and conflicts.

She is shown attending Twi's speech in Celestia's school of magic in the finale of the very same season.
She even sits in the front, next to Spike and the projector with Twilight's slides, which presumably is where Twilight herself also would have been before going up to the pulpit. One might then further speculate that this could mean that they accompanied each other there in some fashion, and thus logically might have spent some indeterminate amount of time hanging out together that day.
Like anons have said, one has to assume that much of the BG pony interacting that the M6 are said to do in their day-to-day lives happens off-camera, when they aren't dealing with episode shenanigans.

>>43136682
This is a good explanation, and how it makes the most sense in my head as well. Like how she is seen with them in images and flashbacks in Amending Fences, but never seems to smile or really actively talk or interact with the rest of the gang, in favor of always having her snoot buried in a book.
