Something interesting coming out of the Twitter of Equestria Girls director Ishi Rudell! It looks like Dance Magic was in production before Legend of Everfree. As with most media companies, things seem to have been jumbled. I wonder what the story behind that one is?
Go get a screencap of the tweets below.
All specials still take place after Legend of Everfree on the in-universe timeline. It seems Dance Magic had to see some adjustments to properly fit there.
Thanks to Robert for the heads up.
