Eh. Didn't care for Sombra as a villain, and I kind of enjoyed his comic redemption arc.

Patton Oswalt confirmed that Quibble Pants is going to return for the final season
“One I can’t talk about yet because its inception is still beginning to form. I have a vision of what it’s going to be but I can’t say anything specifically about what it is. When it comes to acting, I’ll be on the next season of ‘Veronica Mars,’ I got a lot of voice-overs coming up for ‘My Little Pony’ and ‘The Secret Life of Pets 2.’ I’ll also be recording a comedy special for Netflix, so my life is a ball.”

Might be a new character. Unless we're getting something about Quibble Pant's family.

I didn't realize Patton had remarried.

Show returns April 6. New trailer with some pretty big revelations about where they're going.



Having Celestia and Luna retire just seems so anti-climatic. Least have them sail off too the Alicorn undying lands or something.




And what's with Luna saying "Equestira is enjoying it's longest period of harmony in years"? There's been a world ending cataclysm to avert nearly every year since she got back from the moon. :lol:

So everypony moves up. Celly and Luna retire, the old Mane 6 become the new rulers of Equestria, and the students take over as the new Mane 6.

I'm torn about this...Celestia and Luna have definitely earned it, but I'll hate to see them retire. On the other hand, the Mane 6 have earned the right to take over. I guess we'll see. :ponder:

While spoilers for the premiere are OK here, I've made a spoiler station thread for S9 in the spoiler forum. Go there for other future stuff.

Just seems like such a mundane way to get them out of the way. No grand sacrifice. No sailing off to the undying lands. Just casual retirement....


Super Cynical Prediction :

They've been pre-captured. They've either been replaced by changelings or brainwashed and this is the villains ploy to get them out of the way. Celestia and Luna are destroying the tree of harmony at the end.

So what's next for Celestia and Luna? Do they commit their souls to the Tree of Harmony (which has always borne icons of the sun and moon on its trunk), giving their power and wisdom to the waking god within the Tree, ensuring that the sun and moon will move forevermore? Or has a millennium of being on the throne/in the moon left them ready for a millennium of partying in Las Pegasus first?

It's a pretty ridiculous concept for demigods to retire, but I'm not really surprised by this cop-out at this point, season 9

Lame. That’s the best they could come up with? After 9 seasons? Yikes.

Hopefully it’s just a ruse :fluttersmith:

Don't worry, they won't be gone for good.

They have to come back for the finale and get captured. :spoiler:

Image Well, that's that. We defeated Grogar and his team and saved Equestria.

:vogue: Now we can get down to ruling Equestria.

Image About that...my sister and I have decided not to retire after all.

:unenthused: It wasn't for us.

Image What???

Image Checkmate.

Yeah, I hope there's more to it than "we're retiring". Maybe they're being mind controlled? :v:

:speakest: Twilight Sparkle, we are retiring and passing on to your our duties...

:twonk: Aaaaaaa I'm not ready to rule the whole world yet! [hyperventilating]

:gotcha: ...as annual Equestrian celebrity pastry judges!

Luna steps into Twilight's dream witnesses Twilight's fear, gets the idea of retiring, makes it a reality, and hilarity ensues.

Am I the only one who doesn't mind the "retiring" bit? I dunno, I think I prefer it over something convoluted.

It's expected that Twilight's gonna take over the kingdom, and I'd rather they make it more straight to the point on that front.

I'm fine with it, though I do wonder about the "raising the sun/moon" particulars.

Maybe Twilight will just pin them halfway up and call it a day, as it were. Perpetual twilight for Twilight's kingdom!

I also wonder who's going to run the school ("which I JUST OPENED! :twonk:), but maybe Starlight will get a promotion.

Well, with them being the series punching bags for the last 8 seasons, it would have been nice for them to get some grand finale, and maybe retire after actually doing something useful to help their kingdom. Something like Gandalf sailing into the west after his labors were complete.
