Sadly True. |

The whole episode was amazing done but this scene in particular I think they could've worked a little more, Celestia looks rather flat |
| Impious #1307772 2 months ago |
Pretty much.
She needs a badass redemption scene pretty badly. That had to have been humiliating. |
| BattleGT #1307813 2 months ago |
I don't like how this has only happened once within the context of the show and people are throwing her under the bus. |
| Anonymous #1307840 2 months ago |
she's always used her guards or the elements to repel threats
noone in equestria acts like she can mind flay them or shit, she's just a princess so really her having god-like powers has been purely fanon |
| Impious #1307841 2 months ago |
It hasn't been shown to be otherwise, though. She's never been shown to be incredibly powerful or solve things on her own, or at least very rarely. But I still love her. |
| RepentantAnon #1307844 2 months ago |
she just had the flu :D |
| Psychopomf #1307848 2 months ago |
What if her power is slowly diminishing now that she's no longer connected to the Elements of Harmony?
Soon she'll be a regular elderly pony. Then the mental of Princess-ship will be passed on to the new wielders. |

A Celestia episode would be nice. She'd get to save the day for a change. |

what's your point |
| Impious #1307886 2 months ago |
I miss my headcanon of her being a greek pantheon-style god. Powerful, but prefers to do work through proxies because that's just how gods roll.
She really needs an episode where she gets to save the day and redeem herself. Seriously. I can see the Mane Six and Luna being knocked out of commission, leaving Celestia as Equestria's final line of defense. I don't see her failing as easily if she's "our last hope". Because, you know, the good guys have to win in the end. |
| Anonymous #1307904 2 months ago |
GUYS! She only lost because she underestimated Chrysalis! She didn't expect to be assaulted with the power of love the queen absorved from Shining Armor. |

#1307904 Sorry for that bestiality I just wrote... "absorved"... |

Celly's nothing like Worf. She doesn't get denied anywhere near as much as him. |
| NightJack #1307956 2 months ago |
Why does it keep happening?!?! |
| d715 #1308012 2 months ago |
She let NNM win because it was part of her plan to save her
Chrysalis had the power of love, even Chrysalis was shock at the fact she beat Celestia Discord is the only real one more powerful than Celestia because he's at Elder God levels |
| Fronzel #1308024 2 months ago |
Yeah that shot really showed the limitations of Flash at the level of effort they're willing to put into it. It looked really weird. |
| MisterS #1308049 2 months ago |
I got a theory: Maybe there's a villain in Equestria( or on the plat where Euestria is if it is not the only country on it) that's actually more powerful than anything seen on the show? A villain so powerful that all the races form an alliance to defeat it? Would someone write a fanfic based on this idea? I imagined the villlain as a creature that was once human but something made both more and less human that thinks or is the last human or that it thinks itself the last human. Who else thinks think it could be a good fanfic idea? |
| Impious #1308062 2 months ago |
I want to see a Metal Wolf Chaos x My Little Pony crossover.
Celestia, disgraced and incapable as a ruler, is overthrown by a changeling in the guise of her sister Luna, and a slew of loyalists. She mulls over her incompetence for a few years, decides that she will never fail her people again, forms a coalition, and wages war against the corrupt regime with a humongous mecha. It would be hilarious, because that game is hilarious. |
| Anonymous #1308066 2 months ago |
Eh so she's not that powerful. It is not like the head of state has to be able to take all comers in single combat.
Now the fact that their military is apparently rather weaksauce is a much bigger concern. |
| Jackarunda #1308069 2 months ago |
I feel really bad for her. She seriously needs some badassness added by the pony team.
I'll be rooting for you, Celly! |
| Anonymous #1308097 2 months ago |
Woah guys we don't want her to turn into an Elminster here. |

*Starts fighting Chrysalis*
Celestia: "Finally now i'm gonna be the one to save Equestria" *Gets overpowered by Chrysalis* Celestia: "Oh shit! This totally went better in my mind" *Gets defeated and wakes up in a slime pod* Celestia: "Ok this DEFINITELY went way better in my mind!" |

@Psychopomf
That theory actually makes sense. |
| togashimenai #1308299 2 months ago |
I think that the only thing Celestia has actually DONE is to cure Ponyville of Twilight's want&need spell. Other than that, she pretty much gets pwned, Worf style. |
| mounds #1308332 2 months ago |
meh, a queen v.s. a princess who'd you think was gonna win? |
| Lancer #1308342 2 months ago |
Thousands of years of easy living will do that to ya.
All she's done is move the sun and moon around every 12 hours or so, and attend galas. |
| Impious #1308403 2 months ago |
Like I said, needs an epic Rocky training montage set to Guile's theme. That'll set her straight. |
| Anonymous #1308498 2 months ago |
I never understood why people seem to think that Celestia is some sort of all-powerful goddess. Honestly I was excited as shit to see her get beat in this scene, just to prove people wrong.
She's just a goddamn princess. |

Umm, she managed to easily stop filly Twilight's magical outburst at the entrance exam that completely overpowered six grown unicorns, four of which were trained professionals at a school for gifted unicorns.
She dispelled the entire town of Ponyville after Twilight's "want it, need it" spell backfired. She raises the motherfucking sun every day. You know, that gigantic ball of fire. So really, saying that she's never shown her power before is just dishonest. This is the first time she actually stood a chance against a real villain and fought with all her power, the times before that she already knew that she doesn't stand a chance because she no longer wields the elements of harmony. |

One incident does not a Worf Effect make. |
| Anonymous #1314864 2 months ago |
My headcanon: She throws the battle just to show how much of a threat the villain is. |
| I_Like_Your_Mane #1315584 2 months ago |
But she's not Worf-esque. Celestia was never shown explicitly fighting. She is magically powerful and all, but she's a PRINCESS. She is NOT a warrior.
Plus, Worf had to contend with Eldritch monstrosities and pure cyborgs (like Data) who were pretty much invincible. Against any normal sentient beings, Worf absolutely destroys them bare-handed. |
