Unpopular opinion time

I don’t consider “Fizzlepop Berrytwist” as Tempest’s real name. I always saw it as an ending gag.

@rdibp  
Her ability is making fireworks, so the “fizzlepop” part makes sense.

@rdibp  
That makes two of us, I wish they never even mentioned that name so we could go with only Tempest Shadow which even though its edginess is actually a great name.
 
While Fizzlepop Berrytwist is still the worse pony name I know of.

I prefer G1 Tirek

@Broken Adam  
He looked so cool.

@Wechselpony  
It could be worse. It could be that Kirin head spinning..meme, edit. Whatever.

@MangoBox
 
I mean, Tirek ranted to Cerberus that it was “boring here here now” (which I found funny), instead of anything else.
 
@Meanlucario
 
As far as we can tell, Cozy Glow is a bonafide psychopath that is extremely talented at manipulation (she’s so good at faking emotions, and what emotions she does actually have seems to be shallow, just like a real psychopath), so no amount of therapy will fix that (and therapists could easily be tools for her to manipulate and potentially escape), and nothing short of outright brainwashing her would likely work.
 
It’s not Twilight’s fault she couldn’t teach Cozy Glow. 1 is a statistical anomaly anyway.
 

 
When someone decides they care about backstabbing someone appreciating/liking them like this about as much as they would stepping on an ant, there’s probably something fundamentally broken with them. For that matter, was she trying to get someone killed on that field trip?

@AC97  
My point exactly. She didn’t even try to pretend to want to repent, she just try to escape to do it all over again.

And before Starlight is brought up again, I’d like to point out that she subject to the same treatment. When she first rejected the chance to repent the Mane 6 tried to capture and no doubt punish her. But when she wanted to repent they gave her the opportunity.
 
There’ll be a double standard if in Cozy’s return she is remorseful but the 6 denies her a chance to reform.

@Dustcan  
You seem to be forgetting that Starlight thought she was doing the right thing, and believed her own lies. Cozy tried to drain the world of all of its magic for personal power. Again, how about you ask Sombra or Tirek about being given second chances.

Spoiler for Nightmare Knights:
 
I don’t buy for a second that Sunset and Starlight would actually get along if they were both still evil, considering their goals from when they were evil completely clash with each other.
 
I know it’s alternate universe versions of their evil selves, but I still don’t buy it.

@Broken Adam  
This  
Its only funny if it’s ironic.
 
 
@ILoveMyoozik  
Probably. Gonna protect my waifu from stale memes.

@Meanlucario
 
Which lead her to reject redemption and thus be treated like a villain, before accepting redemption and allowed the opportunity. Just saying the Mane 6 have been treating Starlight and Cozy under the same standard (so far).
 
Speaking of Sombra, in one medium he did reform and was accepted when he decided to stop being evil.
 
@Jarkes
 
They’re just one pair in a casino filled with the likes of Tirek, Mirror Sombra, Nightmarity, Doomity, Babs, Svengallop, Tantabus, Grogar, Babs, Angel, etc. And another page has Sunset chatting with Wallflower. I’m pretty sure the bad guy bar is mostly tongue and cheek.

@Dustcan
 
Yeah, but it’s just weird.

@Meanlucario
 
And it’s also worth noting in my opinion that the only time she was portrayed as failing a test, she did it intentionally (and pulled off flawless crocodile tears to go with that). To have weaseled her way into everyone’s good graces as well as she did, her being a great student must’ve helped with that greatly.
 
But of course, being a psychopath, she knows the words, but not the music.

I’m still not sure if I want Chrysalis to reform or not.

@Dustcan  
Comics don’t count, unless you’re saying that violence again others is OK, but violence again government buildings isn’t in Equestria.

I’m actually stunned that people are getting upset that Tartarus is being called “Hell”. Like, holy crap XD

@Dustcan
 
I’d honestly rather have that happen than have Cozy Glow get reformed.

@AC97  
Given the choice I think it’d make more sense for Cozy to be reformed, since she’s just a kid and I honestly don’t see the writers going the whole cynical “people are born evil” route. Also I’d MUCH rather Chrysalis stayed a villain because I like her so much :D

@Badumsquish
 
“Born evil” happened to the Mean Six, and they were killed, weren’t they?

You evil, you die or if you’re lucky you’ll be brainwashed. FRIENDSHIP IS MAGIC!

@Chrys
 
I’m actually not sure I’d bat an eye if Cozy Glow died.
 
I know that wouldn’t happen, considering the rating and tone, but still.

@AC97  
If she was older she’d probably turn into some demon thing then get vaporized.

@AC97  
Yeah, but the show’s made it VERY clear that clones don’t count since they’re not “real”. Even the innocent ones are free murder targets. Like, I don’t know if they’ll actually reform Cozy in the end or not but I have no doubt they’ll come up with some sort of underlying reason she’s evil. Hopefully an ACTUAL reason instead of “I got dumped 20 years ago” :P
