how is FP’s chrysalis not 3-dimensional?

Seconded.
 
My critisism of the story Canon isn’t at all about Chrysalis, tbh.
 
Also the description though, describing fluffle puff Chrysalis as “3 dimentional villain” omegagigaluuuul.
 
Downvoted.

Trust me I'm an engineer
Her canon was atrociously bad, bland and worst yet stupid. Fluffle started alright, but grew kinda stale for me over time since not much interesting was going on.  
So I think I’ll side with this:

But I guess OP is technically correct in the same way as plain inoffensive drinking water is better than smelly rotten mush.

Many people also liked canon and how they handled the show. Chances are the majority of people are in that group and you hear what many like to call the “vocal minority”.
Many fanons are nothing but a bunch of headcanons of stuff written by older audiences FOR older audiences.
And most villain headcanons from Nightmare Moon and Sunset Shimmer are lame victimization fanons anyway.
 
Cool, it’s still an opinion. You’re using the word “denial” I don’t think you know what that word means.

Likes Queen Chrysalis
Your mind is beyond repair.
Background Pony #6584
No, no it did not.  
Sure she became more generic.  
But I’m sorry literal “Bug Waifu” is not better.  
OP is objectively wrong.

I kind of like Chrysalis
@NLTLF  
She doesn’t do anything, the problem is anon calling her a mary sue which contradicts the definition of useless, just throwing words at this point.

I really like chrysalis, I hope they bring her back in gen 5

@Beau Skunky  
I am so gonna regret saying this since talking about Chrysalis with you is lose-lose with us but
 
@DiamondDust
And honestly like her better in canon as a badass villainous queen as opposed to some goofy, OOC, cutesty-acting, bug-mama waifu common in fanon.
 
Why can’t she be both?
 
@Background Pony #0B6B  
Yeah, I can agree about that. Whenever I fantasize over my dumb “episode expansions”, they’re taken directly from video games I love. But as unoriginal as they are, I’ve still seen people who like my dumb episode expansions.

Ruwa is best waifu.
A painful truth.

Princess Celestia the Changeling Queen handled changelings and Chrysalis better than pretty much anything in the show or fandom.

The one thing I liked about Starlight’s backstory is the idea that sometimes ponies break bad for incredibly petty reasons. That episode about meeting her dad really inspired HCs about just why she broke bad: my interpretation is that not only did the adults in her life not take her feelings of separation seriously but the advice they gave her was totally useless, so she learned to ignore everything they said.

Neither handled her better.  
They both handled her in different equally good ways

She wasn’t ooc, she actually developed as a character in FP, unlike her generic laughing villain 101 canon counterpart

@Beau Skunky  
Because it kinda was. Her backstory was really forced, and nearly undermined her entire character. Regardless, she was a very interesting villain when she was first introduced, even though, she didn’t yet have a backstory.
