>picThe Twi/Trixie parts are 100% on point in my opinion, but the Starlight
>probably wouldn't get on with flamboyant and animated personalitiesIsn't Trixie both of those qualities? At least on surface anyway. Maybe its because Trixie tones down a little bit on that side of herself around Starlight/off the stage that Starlight can get over that aspect of her, making her as said, comfortable.
>spoilerYou're not alone in thinking that. I've often thought Twilight was much more suited to a wise advisor/Merlin type role than as the ruler herself. Starlight grew into being a leader.
>Still really wish we had gotten to see her interact with the M6 more too. There's a scene in No Second Prances where Fluttershy looks really sad when she comes back to the picnic and realizes Starlight left.Rainbow Dash should have at least been able to show Starlight the Wonderbolts, and maybe Starlight's ability to fly with magic would have amazed RD/the Wonderbolts. It could have gone somewhere.
>And if Starlight had been introduced earlier maybe they could've actually done something with her connection to Luna, more than her just saying "I see a lot of myself in you".The lack of interaction with Luna especially hurts. Luna feels undeveloped herself but having her interact with someone else who has undergone redemption and she could relate to on that would have been magical.
