Why does this website hate Cozy Glow so much?

the last airbander had no problem showing an evil child in the show.

@Shimmering Spectacle  
But Azula, unlike Cozy, had reasons for becoming evil. She was more complex, cunning, and well-written.

@Smart Heart  
Yeah, cozy didn’t have any reason.

@Background Pony #5C31  
In these days, if you’re going to put villains in your show, you need to give them different reasons for being evil. Otherwise, they start to blend into each other.

@Smart Heart  
Exactly.
 
I feel people forget this though, which is sad.

@Background Pony #5C31
 
@Smart Heart  
she kinda had a reason, she like wanted it all magic for herself

@Shimmering Spectacle  
That isn’t a good enough reason, unfortunately.

So, what’s up with this thread coming back again? These are too many pages. xD

@Ring Team  
Persistence, my friend.

@Ring Team  
Some people just won’t accept that she’s been stoned, all cause that they just instead benied the fact that she caused actions against others.

@Shimmering Spectacle  
Oh yeah. Totally her fault she got stoned. Definitely wasn’t the fault of Dipcord who bailed her out in the first place and got to be the one to decide the punishment.

@Shimmering Spectacle  
I’m gonna be sincere and I’ll put my spin on it. I think being stoned is a nice faith for a MLP villain. The only “death” that was hardcore was Sombra’s defeat. And he died twice, but not in a grotesque way, but with lights and all that.
 
I think Tirek, Cozy Glow and Chrysalis being a statue is a nice ending for them.
 
I don’t think Cozy Glow was a well written character. She was barely a character. We don’t know anything about her or her parents. She doesn’t work in season 8 and 9. But that doesn’t mean I should hate her. The show has a lot of jank, but it’s not because of her.

@Ring Team  
you forgot the storm king’s death

@Ring Team  
True.

@Shimmering Spectacle  
Yeah, I forgot. xD
 
I mean, I have a lot of things to say about many characters in the show, for better or worse. Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Tempest Shadow, Starlight Glimmer, Twilight Sparkle, princess Luna, Sunset Shimmer… but Cozy Glow? I think I have more questions than things to say about her, whether are positive or negative. Where are her parents? Why is there a little pony just going around lonely with zero support? Why is she ambitious?
 
I don’t dislike her, I don’t hate her, but I was more confused with each episode with all this jank. What was the show accomplishing with this character?

@Background Pony #5C31  
Attempted to destroy the city? Are you sure? Wasn’t conquest her goal? And really, one could argue that what Discord did was just as bad, if not worse.
 
@Shimmering Spectacle  
When did Discord show any signs of being able to change before he was let out by Celestia’s orders? When was Starlight when she practically revealed that Our Town was really all about her? How could they possibly know that Cozy couldn’t change if they never tried reforming her? You can argue for how its her fault all along, but the fact remains that she was treated worse then more powerful villains of similar evil and caliber while she is a child. Heck, Tartarus was completely unnecessary because of it. A house arrest could have held her. The way they imprisoned her both times was complete overkill.
 
@Ring Team  
“Together forever”  
-Discord.
 
There’s also the fact that Discord himself said that he could hear everything around him, meaning that he was awake. While it isn’t a hundred percent possibility for Cozy, it’s still possible. This also adds to the fact that they literally never tried to so much as offer her a second chance after so many villains got it. Even Chrysalis got at least the damn offer.

@Ring Team  
well personally, i just hate her well for what she did, mainly 2 things: 1) shooting twilight with the magic she stole, towards her new throne with no remorse; and 2) putting starlight in the same bubble that she made in the s8 finale

@Background Pony #E700  
Tbf, she caused windigos to appear and nearly freeze the city. If the mane 6 hadn’t gotten their powers back, the city would’ve been completely frozen.

@Ring Team  
Nice ending? I don’t know how you can say that. Being turned to stone presumably forever has dire and morbid implications. Are they still conscious? If so then that would be a fate worse than death. Having to be awake for every living moment for eternity may just drive them to the brink of insanity.
 
If they’re unconscious in this state they may as well be dead seeing as they’re unable to move, breathe, or do anything for that matter. Like an eternal coma.
 
Personally the stoning of a kid was a terrible way to end the show who’s tones are all about friendship especially when episodes like Frenemies did a great job at setting up a potential redemption.
 
They could have just gone idea of giving them a chance at redemption as with this comic here. Just leave it up to interpretation whether or not they’d get another chance.  

@Background Pony #F803  
exactly

 
Exactly this. Cozy showed more signs of redemption in Frenemies than most other redeemed villains in the show.

I should note, I’m more neutral on this, so…

It’s hard for me to really have a solid opinion on Cozy since the writers blatantly had no idea what to do with her. She’s intresting to me,but we never get any motivation from her,we never find out why she is the way she she is,and in the end she’s locked in stone, basically swept under the rug for someone else to deal with eventually. I would love for her parents to show up right after that and be all like,“hey, have you seen a little filly with curly blue hair around? We’ve been looking everywhere,and she needs to take her anti-psychotic medication!”

@Dex Stewart  
I’ve seen fics on that, but imo, she’s likely a orphan.

@Shimmering Spectacle  
How’d she do that, anyway? Getting Starlight in that bubble.
