• No Luna Until Season 2

    Lauren Faust has confirmed on her Deviant Art page that Luna will not be returning to the show until Season 2.

    At least our crazy Emo-Luna fan theories will still hold up for a  few more months, but I was dying to see what she was really like.  

    And maybe she will be a common character for season 2? With all sorts of continuity?

    Or maybe she will be part of a resistance to take down the TYRANT CELESTIA?!

    Alright I'm done.  I'll just go be disappointed in a corner somewhere. Have some screencap of the conversation after the break.

    1. Daw, not seeing luna is pretty sad, but it's not like she has characterization anyway. We'll see.

    2. Well, at least that's absolute proof that Season 2 exists.

      VastaKustuta
    3. Aww that sucks oh well more incentive to watch season 2.

      VastaKustuta
    4. I think this is GOOD news. We now have absolute proof that season 2 exists AND that it's going to have Luna.

      VastaKustuta
    5. I was really hoping she'd be in next ep,the owl episode,or at least the season finale. :(

      VastaKustuta
    6. Celestia's behind this!

      VastaKustuta
    7. At least nothing about her is already written. That means the creators can make her exactly how we want her to be (all sad and lonely and all).

      It wouldn´t be a to big surprise, when she is really going to be so.

    8. I kind of like the lack of personality Luna has in canon. It lets people be more creative in fan works.

      I mean, at the moment she's up there with Trixie as my favorite characters in Fanon. I'd hate for them to give her some stupid Holier-than-thou rich kid attitude.

      I r the disappoint!
      I demand someone now go through season one and replace all appearances of Celestia with Luna!
      I WANT MY PONY PRINCESS!

    10. As much as I wanted to see more of what LF had in store for Luna's character, I prefer this. I don't want her shoehorned into episodes, but rather be the subject of future plots.

      Maybe she might be included in some continuity episodes in S2 concerning the dark magic that transformed her into NMM? Although, i wonder what the effect of a centralized antagonist in the show would do to it.

      Just a random thought. :D

      Animation on Season 2 starts in April; I'm pretty sure stuff must have been written for it by now.

      Not to say they couldn't take some inspiration from the fan community, though. They did it with Derpy; it wouldn't surprise me if Luna's character took a bit from it, as well.

      VastaKustuta
    13. Luna won't appear until season 2 because she is busy organizing the resistance movement against the foul tyrant Celestia.

      Hmm, now I've got a Fable 3 crossover being acted out in my head.

      VastaKustuta
    14. Get my Luna shirt from Shirt Brony... YAY!!!
      Find out no Luna until season 2... FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

      VastaKustuta
    15. I had hoped she would at least appear in the last episode of this season (maybe it's finally about the Grand Gala ?), but oh well. At least this means season 2 is definetly coming

      VastaKustuta
    16. i am full of sadness. poor luna, how she get plenty of show time in the next season. she has defently evolved into my favorite.

      VastaKustuta
    17. Aw... There goes my hope that she'd get a singing part in that 20-pony choral piece Daniel Ingram mentioned... but, season 2!

      VastaKustuta
    18. That's quite a long time.

      I'm sure it'll be worth it though!

      VastaKustuta

      I'll be honest, if they did go through with the whole "lonely Luna" thing I'd be pretty disappointed. The fanon Luna character has been played so much that actually seeing it in the new season wouldn't feel new or interesting, it'd just feel rehashed. That's just me of course, but personally I hope they don't do that... I'd love to see something different, but also unique, and not completely expected.

    20. this is good and bad - good in that we have a double-confirmation on season 2 AND Luna episode(s). Bad in that we've got to wait a year for Luna.

      Luna for best pony!

      @Anonymous Tara's already said on Twitter that she's started recording ponies.

      @Season 2 confirmation:
      Hub World lists every episode as Season 1: Episode # ----.
      Also, see above.

      VastaKustuta
    22. Well, if Luna's in season two, that just means season two is going to be AWESOME!

      VastaKustuta
    23. Darn. This show has such good characters and they are teasing us with them. I'll be seriously disappointed if Luna doesn't get some good screen-time in season 2. It's going to be a looooooong wait.

      There seems to be a misunderstanding about Derpy in the community. There was no influence from the fan community with Derpy, I believe. Lauren Faust said an episode takes a whole year in total to develop, from start to finish. I expect that most of the episodes were already written and in development by the time people even noticed Derpy. I'm personally thinking that the animators were just messing around with her out of boredom. And they do seem to like that googly-eyed look in general.

      I can understand why people can come to that conclusion though.

      VastaKustuta
    25. So, we're doomed with this until s02:

      VastaKustuta
    26. Well, damnit. Guess we'll just have to wait.

      VastaKustuta
    27. this just means that they didn't think luna would be so popular among fans so they didnt plan any luna in season 1. this means they actually listen to the fans. this is good news if you over think it.

      VastaKustuta
    28. well... at least we now know that Luna will be on Season 2

      VastaKustuta
    29. I expect to see an explosion of fan art of Luna cutting herself in the next 48 hours.

      VastaKustuta
    30. Man can't wait for Luna. I guess they might just do the standard fantasy thing of 1000 years not bringing much change but I think the show might actually examine how a pony reacts to being 1000 years behind her time.

      "They've got two story houses now? You don't say. What's that giant metal thing? Tuh-rain? Hmm, neat."

      VastaKustuta
    31. *set just after the events of episode 2*
      Luna pranced happily around her agents office. "Have you seen how popular I am online," she asked her agent happily. "This is my big break! I just know it! I've already quit my horrible waitress job, Luna's an ACTOR now! So when do they need me next?"
      *cut to five months later*
      Luna, her crown and horseshoes with visible cracks, her hooves frostbitten from the harsh winter slowly pulls herself into her agent's office.
      "Any word yet?"
      The agent gulps, "Actually yes, you've been confirmed for next season. So we'll need you around... next November."
      Luna struggles to manage a smile, "Do they still like me online?"
      The agent looks at her computer displaying "Luna's Magic Wand". She makes an awkward smile, "They still LOVE you."
      "That's... good, right," Luna asks before she bursts out crying.

    32. STOP MAKING THIS MORE DEPRESSING THAN IT ALREADY IS!

      I'm looking at you, Kein and Pacce!

      VastaKustuta
    33. yeah. Kein makes me want to cry with that jpeg T_T

    34. Luna appears at the start of season 2 in a flashback about the first episode of season 1















      This will be her only appearance

      Don't even joke about that!
      I swear if you jinxed it I will reach through the internet and unicorn magic choke your ass.

    36. This is terrible! Unless...

      Celestia: Luna, since you've been imprisoned in the moon for the last thousand years, perhaps it would be good for you to socialize with the ponies of the world. It would help you to ease into your new life, and allow ponies to get used to the new you.
      Luna: But who would possibly want to spend time with... Nightmare Moon? X'(
      Celestia: I think I might know someone...

      Please oh please let her be a main character in season two! Maybe the focus could even shift to Twilight and Luna BOTH learning about friendship!

      VastaKustuta
    37. @Pacce
      Thanks Pacce, now I'm even more depressed. Though I would like some clarification on "Luna's Magic Wand".

      BROnie, I like your thinking. That would be a really cool idea.

      Oh.

    40. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!

      VastaKustuta
    41. Mmh, just a thought...

      Maybe Luna will have the same Show time, in the Season 2, as Celestia in Season 1 ?

      Which is not much, if we think about it...

      Maybe BOTH will be more involved ?

      Sad. very sad. But from the light side of the moon - Lauren confirmed, that she Will be in the 2nd season. And I hope she will appear more than once. Hey, That guys have edited the animation to add Derpy in there only because fans like her. I'm 100% sure that they will add lot of Luna from the beginning because fans love her!

      VastaKustuta
    43. "Long wait"...

      "She won't be around until Season 2"...

      Which means possibly last episode...

      Last 2 minutes of last episode...

      ...

      In flashback :>

      VastaKustuta
    44. I bet the real reason behind the letters Twilight sends Celestia, is so Luna can learn about her experiences. Celestia reads them like a parent getting a letter from their child who's ten states away, then passes them to Luna who uses them to learn about friendship, how to get along with others, how to over-come your differences and disputes, etc.

      And now, every time I see @Kein's pic, I think of House's music video 'Get Happy'.
      It only slightly makes me less depressed.

      VastaKustuta
    45. Well, so much for the giant season finale hopes. But hey! This means we're actually getting Luna next season, instead of her vanishing into thin air like Number One on Star Trek or Chuck on Happy Days!

      VastaKustuta
    46. Hey!!! Who will raise and lower the moon for Season 1??? GRRR
      But I want a pony jumprope

      VastaKustuta
    47. Well, at first I was like, "Aww." :(
      But then I thought about it and now I'm like, "That's okay, this is gonna be GOOD." >=D
      Must have patience...must have patience...

      VastaKustuta
    48. There is no fighting against Celestia. She is the new pony god! When Celestia commands your surrender, she speak with three billion voices. When Celestia raises a hoof to crush your resistance, it is with twelve billion hooves. When Celestia stares into your eyes and shatters your dreams and breaks your heart. It is with six billion eyes! Nothing like Celestia has ever come among you: Nothing will again. Nothing will again. ALL HAIL CELESTIA!

      VastaKustuta
    49. So... Which Luna do you think will make it into season 2?

      Luna the Jubilant Delinquent

      Luna the Defiant

      Luna the Reformed Goddess

      Luna the Ex-Prisoner, Solitary and Unforgiven?

      VastaKustuta
    50. I love Luna.I like all the characters,But I love Luna and Rainbow Dash the best!!!
