Alphabittle and Queen Haven are Millennials, and the G5 Mane Six are Gen Zers?
I think they want to avoid a repeat of “This character learned this lesson they are never allowed to exhibit this character flaw ever again!”

The “Lore” may be an utter mess, but the characters themselves go a long way to keeping me invested in this gen. Despite the endless story direction problems and continuity errors, the voice actresses are all clearly doing their damndest to keep these characters fun and strong, with Pipp and Zipp being especially huge highlights. If G5’s got one huge positive to it’s predecessor, it’s that the cast and crew care just as much for the characters and want to see them work no matter how many problems Hasbro drags them into.@DerpyFast
To throw a bone to 5’s mess of a lore, the Sun and Moon issue does seem to be rather easily explained as just Twilight and the m6 finding someway to automate the world in their absence. The whole “Unity Crystals are Conduits to the Tree ofHarmony‘Togetherness’ “ and stuff like the Automated Weather Factories have been consistently implying that Twilight saw the magical dark age coming and went to Fallout Equestria level planning and backup planning to ensure Equestria would survive far into the future. How she somehow successfully foresaw absolutely everything about Sunny and all is an annoying mystery though.
That’s mostly pure guesswork and assumptions
@evocov
Eh, gonna have to agree to disagree on that - I don’t think G5 has really ever teased that everything will be answered or anything like that - I think that’s more a product of the fandom being up its own collective ass about G4 lore (ignoring the inconvenient truth that G4 contradicted its own lore at multiple junctures) and thinking that G5 absolutely has to answer about what happened that one time Twilight Sparkle stubbed her hoof and Luster Dawn just happened to be around to hear it, or why Applejack’s apple harvest was only 49 trees one year instead of 50.
I mean, Pipp had something of an arc of learning to do the whole social media thing in moderation.Wasn’t that like in only one episode and never brought up ever again considering how much of a social media junkie she still is.I did forget she had more character development in the comics. I don’t generally read the comics so it slipped my mind.
