I adore Sunset Shimmer. She is literally the reason I got into the MLP community in the first place. (I watched all of EQG before I even saw anything from FIM). She is one of my favorite characters in any piece of media ever. Her character development is fantastic! I even cosplayed as her this past Halloween, lol. I've been loving your reviews of FIM and I'm excited to see your analysis! -Red Sapphire
@autumnruby8424 Thank you! Sunset is so amazing! I love her so much! It's always nice to see more of her fans! And thank you so much for the kind words!
I never noticed that Sci Twi was stealing Sunset Shiimmer's spotlight but now that you mention it yeah Sci Twi was the main character of EQG it's sad because Sunset was a weak villian but when she became a hero she had so much potential it's sad that Hasbro didn't trust Sunset to carry EQG
@brettfrost6828 You didn't watch the video. I posted promotional material for each special. That was when they tried to double dip by putting Sci Twi as the center of advertising while also having Sunset feature heavily as the "main character" in the specials. It didn't work. Sci Twi was identifiable because of Twilight being the main character of Friendship is Magic. They didn't trust Sunset to be the sole carrier of EQG. The specials were already going further down the route of not trusting Sunset. That's why they featured ponies heavily. Because the writers were already of the opinion that they couldn't just use the humans anymore and that using ponies would garner more attention. And it did, but not because fans wanted EQG. They just wanted more pony. It's essentially what killed Eqg. Sunset may have been the "main character' in your eyes, but not in the eyes of the marketing or writing teams.
I absolutely love Sunset Shimmer. She is the best character from Equestria Girls with the best character development next to Starlight Glimmer and Tempest Shadow. Sad her character arc didn't get completed with the EG series left on a cliffhanger. But no matter, I will still love Sunset Shimmer as my absolute favorite Equestria Girl ever. ❤️💛❤️💛☀️🥰😊
I still appreciate Sunset having more starring roles than Sci-Twi, but you do have a good point. I thought I was the only one who cared about Twilight having the center all the time. I didn't care that much about the posters for the specials, but when they transformed in Forgotten Friendship, not only did Twilight transform first, but she was once again in the center during the Rainbow Laser attack. The fact that this happened during a special about Sunset, made me a bit mad.
@@RiderSentaiKamenger-hu5yl Yeah. It was really frustrating that they couldn't commit to either. I'd have preferred Sunset by far considering Eqg should've been hers, (not to mention FiM was Twilight's) but instead they tried to do both so it was just futile efforts. Sunset deserved better.
Mine is Starlight Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer, Twilight Sparkle (FIM), and Sonata (Turnabout Storm and Elements of Justice) in that order specifically for my top Four MLP characters, both fan made and FIM canon.
She was supposed to be on the original script. She was the one who gave Twilight the idea for the council of friendship. Wait, she was in The Last Problem!
@EteamProductions didn't hasbro say no for sunset being in the finale episode of fim because they thought it would confused people who did not see equestria girls?
@@renamon5658 From what I've read, it was more of a time issue. It's hard to fit so many things in 22 minutes. But she does appear behind Twilight in that picture at the end. Every trace of Equestria Girls could be wiped off the Earth tomorrow, and we'd still have Sunset in that shot. Sunset appears in FiM!
@@EteamProductions wait, really? oh my god, that would have been a fantastic, excellent and incredible idea, I like that Sunset is there for Twilight, just as she was always there for her, although it is sad that she only appeared for just 2 seconds of cameo in the episode
I see we both agree the second movie was great, peak, what's funny is that was the first one I watched, so the first movie was more a prequal movie to me. and that yeah, her potential was sidelined, but she got some great shorts
@jamiek8123 Starting on Rainbow Rocks is probably the best way to go, tbh. Seeing her regret but not knowing what it was exactly probably would have more impact watching the first after that. She got some good stuff. Wish she would've got it all.
I think hasbro might bring back equestria girls. China is selling equestria girls trading cards. And i think if the cards sell well hasbro might make a sequel to equestria girls
Equestria Girls merch is selling overseas, and if it sells well and considering that Gen 5 of the franchise bombed, it wouldn't surprise me if Hasbro goes back to Gen 4 with Equestria Girls

Thank you for watching and commenting!
The writers were very subtle about it. I really wish Sunset would have gotten more.
Sci Twi is not the main character of EQG, Sunset Shimmer is just by looking at the Equestria Girls specials intros

@@MLPDymos Oh well. It is what it is. Sunset will always be the Main Character in my eyes
@@RiderSentaiKamenger-hu5yl She's the best in my eyes in eqg. I love her.
@@MLPDymos Same 😁
Sunset is my 2nd/3rd favorite character (its a toss up between her and Starlight)
(My favorite is Fluttershy)

It's annoying about the character regression from money grimmer companies.
I like sunset. Sad she was not in the last problem.

@maley2552 If they handle it right, that'd be great. We'll have to see.
Mlp dymos went from watching mlp on an old tv to actually pretty good edited videos lol
@lil_pipz LMAO how did you know my TV is old? I've had it for like 10+ years. Thank you!
