>>36940595I don't like them at all. The Show Stoppers gave us very strong indications of what their Cutie Marks would be (Apple Bloom does stuff with construction or engineering, Sweetie Belle is a virtuoso singer, Scootaloo does extreme sports) and as
>>36940635 said Cutie Marks are all about the pony having an epiphany about who they are and what they can do. Them all getting the same cutie mark has a lot of problems.
1. The Mane 6 all were influenced by Dash's Sonic Rainboom for their Cutie Marks, and they're the literal Elements of Harmony, the gold standard for best friends. Why don't their Cutie Marks share any similarities, but the CMC's do for "being great friends"? Why don't other colts and fillies get matching cutie marks like the CMC do when they're great friends?
2. The existence of a "Cutie Mark finding" Cutie Marks means that there are ponies out there who won't get their Cutie Mark unless the CMCs find it for them. You can see how that would lead to a lot of problems.
3. Because the show destroyed its own lore about Cutie Marks with Troubleshoes and Starlight Glimmer, the CMC finding somepony's cutie mark for them could actually make their life/the lives of others WORSE.
>>36940648I think The Show Stoppers already shows us their CMs, so I'd be fine with them having gone without for a few seasons—but MMC kicked my ass to the curb, so I don't really, like, have a dog in this race anymore.
>>36941142>The heart and apple showing her empathy and her love for family works for her, and the cosmic bond with her best friends made her very happy.You do you, and I don't want to take anything away from you, but this makes her too much of an Applejack copy for my tastes, since Applejack's Cutie Mark came about when she realized how much she missed her farm and family. I'd also argue the Elements have a more cosmic bond.
