>>958 >I wonder if she'll make it in any form into G5? I actually wonder that for most of the major side characters. Unless it's gen 4.5 what they are talking about and they put it under gen 5 in order to create more hype >I could see most getting something or at least a major homage of some sort, though there are some I am uncertain with making into the new gen, Celestia and Luna especially so if there is no alicorns. I literally would have no idea how to reintroduce them. Sure there is enough lore to exploit but honestly, I cannot give any idea nor feedback on that. Just don't make Celestia as guilty or the one to blame for early plotholes of her command. Until season 4, they didn't take her as seriously for her persona.
>Cadence I could see being brought back as a unicorn with a smiler role as some sort of secondary big good more Love oriented ruler or higher up, but with Celestia and Luna it could be something that is too world breaking, and I'm not sure how they would pull off such characters otherwise. Still better than the excuse of a pretty princess. She would have a different purpose or backstory than rushing her presence for toys. >Though we don't know much of their fate at all, or much of how the show's lore will work anyway, just have ta wait and see. I would prefer something completely new but with all the species and locations or related to them into a fresh but nostalgic universe. I like all the dynamics,style and lore behind but just changing the setting or protagonists could be enough.
Gen 4 legacy will be kept permanently,both for the selling part and story-artistic wise. One way or another, they cannot come back to pre gen 4. Gen 5 could be better or worse but the audiences have changed and they have opened wild paths to take from now on.
