"and you thought one recolor was enough"

You should see the background ponies

I saw a scene and they doubled a background character

The royal guard of Princess Celestia all look the same, they are grey, male, unicorn and others have white coats and blue manes. at Twilights coronation, when Celestia introduces Twilight, there were 8 ponies in total behind her and 4 were holding tapestries with twilights coat color and cutie mark. They were mares with white coats, blonde manes, lashes, and blue eyes. Then behind was celestia’s guards with grey coats, obv unicorn and the royal guard uniform. They all look the same 😭

There is about 1,00000000 flutter shys in yhe background lol

Wait till you play the game, they legit have a pink twilight, not a good colour on her just warning.

@I am the first and only Cheesecake why did you write it backwards-

@IceFlower413 // BUGFlower413 yup me too

Every third pony in the background is clone of themselves

Love this❤❤🧡🧡💞💞💞💞💕💕💕💕💕💗💓

@I am the first and only Cheesecake i whas very confused but than you spelled it backwards

I remember seeing like 4 BonBon recolored in the same scene of an episode X3 X3

There was a recolored big Macintoshs in the backround once

In one scene  there was a purple pony who was an earth pony and later on she appeared in a different scene as a unicorn (scene when crisilis spreads distrust around unicorns earth pony's, ect)

I smell like tuna Im locked in a basement help me

Ninjawarriorstar AJPW omg I play ajpw and watch mlp too!! We should be friends?🤣

Luna, our favourite little derp is a Rainbow recolour... which... you could explain out of Derpy being another cloudsdale (ex-)champion flyer?...

@I am the first and only Cheesecake yes rolocre=recolor


<b>when you realized Moon Dancer’s horn is a bit sharper than Twilight’s in some scenes</b>

*when you realized Moon Dancer’s horn is a bit sharper than Twilight’s in some scenes*

And moon dancer has glasses on not twilight

Twilight’s horn is definitely longer though

✧𝒸𝓇𝓎𝓈𝓉𝒶𝓁 𝓅𝑒𝑔𝒶𝓈𝓊𝓈✧

Because twilight sparkle is an alicorn that's why

@Ayati :The Rock star Does it even matter if ppl think it matters

@KyNotKai Productions <br>Does it even Matter if ppl think it matters

@KyNotKai Productions
Does it even Matter if ppl think it matters

@Pearl the Easpeon if Twilight and Moondancer are both unicorns, but Moondancer has a sharper horn, it means that Moondancer was likely meant to be an Alicorn before Twilight became one. That changed the entire plot, keeping Moondancer as just a unicorn.

@Pearl the Easpeon ...... do you understand?

I never really noticed the horns on them

Twilight, as an alicorn, has a different 'base' as every other pony, which includes having a longer horn

I just notice there eyes are the same color

Their horns are different in general, Twilight being an Alicorn makes her horn longer as well.

@Blackii MonsWdym it's a cursed comment?

@Eugenia Viernes oh sorry by mistake I written it

@Eugenia Viernes what?? You don't understand

@Eugenia Viernes I guess you have a channel write

thanks for telling me i didnt notice hahaha

I agree with your profile pic, LizDazzle Brewster. UwU

I DID NOT SEE THAT TILL NOW OH MY GOODNESS!

She was going to stab Twilight at her party


This might just be me but their mane colours look reversed. Twilight's is purple with pink stripes and Moondancer's is pink with purple striped. Also, Moondancer is yellow and yellow is directly opposite purple, twilight's colour, on the colour wheel. I reckon these two, despite sharing a mane style are actually opposites in a way.

THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING TOO, IM GLAD I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE

@Kallie Ysabella ooops.. make it 3 foals then!

@A-629 but there is already shining armour and shining armour is teighlight's brother

@ Tails Clock<br>Bruh I don’t think thousands of other people agree with you 😝

@ Tails Clock
Bruh I don’t think thousands of other people agree with you 😝

also it could be that just like rainbow and daring do, moondancer was taken away, maybe because her parents couldn't afford to raise 2 foals, so maybe they sent her to another family and asked them to dye moondancer's hair because twilight would be devastated that her parents lied to her when she found out, hence the color similarity. twilight's highlights are natural, but moondancer's are not.

@AntonioDucc I did the same thing like 9 months ago but it was ruining a joke lol

If you didn't notice I already said sorry and he accepted my apology

@AntonioDucc No it's okay, the account I posted that comment on is old. I no longer play gacha life and I've grown since then. I've since abandoned that account.

@AntonioDucc Np people who admit to their mistakes are good people :)

If you want to get mad at me do it it's my fault for insulting gacha

@Tails Clock Maybe thats your opinion. But are you SERIOUSLY supporting him? Cringe or not if that girl lieks it let her like it.

@AntonioDucc Dude,Let her like what she wants! Ur pfp is just a smile. Let her be her dont insult her for that.

@AntonioDucc Calm down- lets move over to MLP not gacha

@Tails Clock why did they even mentioned Gacha Life when we're literally talking about MLP theories, okay but go ahead bully me for setting up a kpop idol as my profile pic idgaf, but im defending rights, just because they use mf Gacha doesnt mean they dont have the right to comment in interesting videos.

@i dropped my baby in home depot But he's not wrong. Gacha Life is cringe. He doesn't need to be above that to say it. Facts are facts no matter who says them. Calling him a toxic idiot does nothing to argue against him.

hey they both have a purple stripe of hair and twilight has dark blue hair not PURPLE  no  offence but your channel is pretty great

I really like how moondancer looks like twi, and how their cutiemarks and names sorta relate. Its obvious that royalty related to ruling equestria have names relating to the varying skies and space, and I like to think Moondancer is a missing part of that. It would have been cool for her to be Luna's personal student, lol.

@Anastasia Velona Goshudnaya  Brothers ???

Or They Both Are Twin Brothers or Cousins of One Blood!? 😕


Wait moon dancer’s glasses kinda look like twilights in equestria girls-

(To me they look the same?)

First thing I noticed looking at the thumbnail:D

@yes hi how is she twilights mum if they were kids at the same time bruh get some logic😀

I didn't watched the video but read comments 💀 😳

@AK - 08MD 754484 Beryl Ford PS well you aren't now I am too

Seriosuly I noticed that to when I saw this vid

Yes every pony in equestria all have the same mane ecxape rarity , Celestia and Luna but something is odd about rarity how can she be the elements of freindship . I know that generousity is one of the parts from the elements of harmony but if she is the elements of harmony she could at least help with the mission she rarely help sometimes she only help just to get the jewelry or other than that she was a burden to spike but whats wrong when helping your freinds all on your own ?

What if Moondance is sci twi but if she went into pony world her looks and name git changed so she wouldn't see the copy of her

Oh my god they have the same glasses? They must be related, what if Moon Dancer is Twilight’s Mom?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!???!?!! 🤯🤯🤯


I think that Moondancer admired Twilight SO MUCH that she just wanted to look like her in order to "be as good as her" y'know, being as similar as your idol could make you feel better 'bout yourself...at least that's what I thought when I saw this episode

you know what Camila i think the odds of that seems pretty high

My Brain: The Creator were lazy to make a different Design so they reuse some other characters :|

@undercover don’t judge wow you dress like your idols and love k-pop, how original

@Tyrel Hansen So is this why the professors in my school always confuse me and my best friend because istg we look nothing alike at least form my perspective.


Why does Moondancer look like Twilight?
- Cuz Hasbro was lazy
- The designer wasn't creative that
  day
- Moondancer is a crazy obsessed
  fan

@*「r1pp3dr1bs 」* there is still a theory a Moon is flat kekw

they didn't need to make any new animation frames except for her tied back hair

And They Both Are Twin Brothers or Cousins of One Blood! 😊

@my name twi☆ Wait gen5 got released how r u alive (¬▂¬)

nah actualy we were besties at that time y'know? so she changed herself into me kinda lol

@Moved To · Søldier · but still not every BFF's copy the other one

the last point is wrong since moondancer did that cause she was her bestfriend i THINK

also one more they decided to use the same figure kinda thing just recoloured

Moon dancer was a huge fan of twilight so its more likely it was that

They aren’t lazy, search g1 moon dancer mlp

@Critical Child what about Rainbow Dash and Daring Do (҂⌣̀_⌣́)

I don't agree with you. Maybe with early episodes I would feel the same way but by the time moon dancer was really introduced, the show began to embrace more original designs. I really don't think they were being lazy

yeah i always thought she was obsessed w her cause it makes sense

Or, because they have similar personalities

from Aleina: no her secret twin<br>sister

Angelique Richardson they probably reused animation or something

@*「r1pp3dr1bs 」* what the<br>so she had a baby when she was like 2? XD

@*「r1pp3dr1bs 」* what the

Here’s my theory moondancer is twilights daughter :|

Mr. Toast Ears I highly doubt a person in their right mind would try to copy cat a friend of theirs.

except the fact that he doesent look like Jimin

People like this, they think too hard...<br>It's a kids show, 7yr old are t gonna think this into the show

Moondancer is an original character from G1 shown as a baby in Escape from Catrina. It should be why does Twilight look like Moondancer.

I feel like they look the same because they were BFFs? Idk.

Wilderness Wolf X | So you <i>didn’t</i> get the joke?...

Wilderness Wolf X | So you _didn’t_ get the joke?...

@I safe ih that's unexplainable and stupid.


i feel most recolor situations are pretty simple to explain: it's just a main-style.
Twilight [and subsequently Moondancer] has the pony equivalent of the hair style commonly used in anime/cartoons to imply a smart and introverted girl, one of minimal effort that still looks 'nice' and professional.
Rainbow's mane-style is even less effort, probably just brushed through enough to avoid tangles and getting snagged by things; the sort of hair style someone who's more focused on sporty-activities then fashion would have and the sort of style an adventurer would default to [plus a slight variant of it shows up in background ponies]
Heck, all the main-six's mane styles could potentially show up elsewhere... for the most part... Rarity probably invented her mane-style or it would possibly show up on a model/designer/whatever and Fluttershy probably only gets away with her mane-style because she has a bunch of animal friends to help with brushing it and has likely not gotten it cut in ages...
TL;DR 'recolor' ponies showing up in canon is just a case of one main body type and only so many ways one can style their mane, would you call a human with the same hair style as another a 'recolor' in other media?
Not bashing, just looking at it from another point of view


How to make Moondancer:

Copy and paste twilight.

Then, change her skin colour.

Make a ponytail on the top of her hair.

Change her hair colour.

Add in eyebrows.

Remove wings (If she has some obviously)

Change her tail colour.

Change her cutie mark colour.

DONE!

an make the horn a little, little more sharper

@Ayati :The Rock star Real life is not the same as visual media though. In visual media you leave clues for viewers to pick up on, sometimes unintentionally sometimes intentionally. However, in real world you just do things because well? You can.

@Ayati :The Rock star sweetie, while in the real world it quite doesn’t and even in the fictional it’s not proper representation, the world of fiction has a rule for metaphors and symbolism so if you put symbols which are widely recognised as something in your time (time of writing) that means it can be read as a fact rather than accidental thing. It’s how blue drapes become a motif of sadness. Also? No need to cuss, we can be civilised.

@Fleury ✨ of course canonically it’s bs. But sometimes you want to code characters because you  want to create foils for specific characteristics they have. Twilights with Moon Dancer and Sunset is great example of this. Also have you noticed this is YouTube video made for fans for Mlp who definitely do like fanfics/theories??? Wow imagine ppl just talking and joking about stuff.

@Venus Gin  what is this a fanfiction ;-; Of course that’s not twilight and sunsets child.

basically just create a whole new pony, but only with the same mane

Add glasses and CHANGE (not recoulor ) her  Cutie mark.

Lol i cant edit meh in rl :I CANT EDIT!!!!! T-T

No remove glasses and add twilight’s cutie mark

Sushmita Sen I mean are you suggesting someone with literal bi colours and kinda sorta lesbian ones in their mane and those names are straight?

@Venus Gin <br>Are Twilight and Sunset lesbians ????

@Venus Gin
Are Twilight and Sunset lesbians ????

You know THAT'S A VERY VERY BIGGGGG process

Moondancer should be an alicorn she could walk in dreams and stuff bc Luna isn’t there

Moondancer is an original character from G1 shown as a baby in Escape from Catrina. It should be why does Twilight look like Moondancer.

Azra Bahadur okay but now that I look at it doesn’t Moondancer remind you slightly of some other pony except twilight? I mean personality wise especially... she isn’t very patient, was hurt by someone close to her, she is smart but kinda hotheaded and slightly rude... she reminds me of Sunset... even the mane is like a reddish purple. Moondancer’s skin is yellow, but it has a tint of really light purple making it not as saturated. Theory: moondancer is twilights and sunsets child from the future that in some freaky accident got sent back in time and raised in that timeline which she doesn’t remember because she was too young.

If you think about it, this sounds so wrong. (Cupcakes: Pinkie removing Dash’s wings)

You got the perfect answer my friend . Hahaha

copy and paste sci twi in pony form in spring breakdown

or use the twighlight from the show before season 3


i saw this and i was like:

two words: they're cousins

I always considered them as cousins, no matter what people told me since it kinda made sense to me back then

I headcanon them as sisters, but this is pretty good too 😊😁

I thought they were secretly sisters but not I think more their cousins I didn’t think about that xD cause it they where sisters moondancer would be grey like tha dad

THANK YOU, at least one person isn't an idiot, they can be related SOMEHOW but everyone somehow forgot about blood relation.


I honestly think Moon Dancer was designed with a Twilight template by the founders/creators of the show, or by the fans on Deviant Art *(still using the Twilight template)*.
The same goes for Daring Do. She looks a lot like RD, and I assume the same.
HOWEVER , I also noticed that Moon Dancer and Twilight share similar personalities. And so do Daring and Dash. I just think not much effort went into these characters, and that their personalities were either made that way to benefit the plot, or the writers just saw them as replicas of Twi and Dashie.

Moondancer is just like those stores who sell fake my little pony toys

@Mar there was a doll wich was a mix between pinkie and generation one but her cutie mark is a sun and a rainbow dash one when I bought them  the plastic was very cheap

@regular show freaking fan and they use like raritys eyes Twilights coat and luna's cutiemark

Lol I remember I was at a store full of fake toys and there was:
My merry horse
My little horse
Ponydoll
Like they aren't even trying to hide the fact that it's copied

The other day I saw a fake mlp toy the box said "my happy horse"


Plot twist: daring do and moondancer are recolour ocs a young fan made and the creators of mlp didn’t want the fan to feel bad so they added the ocs into the show


In “A Series Of Unfortunate Events”, the oldest sister, Violet, always kept her hair up and out of her face so she could think clearly. Why do I mention this? This could explain why Moondancer’s hair is always up


What if Moondancer and Daring doo were alternate realities of themseleves. That just so happened to be in the same parallel universe. An alternate version would like similar. But different to an extent. Maybe something went wrong with a spell at one point and has combined universes?

Thats just me......

You could extend that and say they were from the human world, but didn't know.

@Caramel Coffeee  Fanfiction Writers : WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAT DOWN!

Pretty good theory thooo

@Caramel Coffeee  Fanfiction Writers : *WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAT DOWN!*

Ah... I understand...totalllyyyyyy....

But yeah uh that would make sense if My Little Pony was for older minds, little kids may not understand that .-.


Maybe before they even met their manes' were the same so when they met they were surprised they had the same mane and they immadiately became friends


She doesn’t just look like twilight she is twilight just recolored

Moondancer is an original character from G1 shown as a baby in Escape from Catrina. It should be why does Twilight look like Moondancer.


probably character designers thought kids would be too stupid to see them as foils of each other unless they made them look identical. you have to keep that in mind when considering all the design choices, a lot of it could just be dumbing things down to make sure kids get it (not always necessary but media producers like to do that)


What if moondancer’s and twilight’s parents were close friends, and even had their daughters on the same day? And so, with magic being friendship and all, their children were born with those stripes that look identical. But at some time while the two are infants, their parents had kind of drifted apart emotionally or got into some situation that totally ruined their friendship, but the magical connection with Moondancer and Twilight , they reunited at school, and grew up together from there on. With moondancer looking up to twilight for being the smarter friend , she styles her hair to look like twilight’s (like you , The Brony Nation, said) . But when twilight doesn’t show up to MD’s birthday and doesn’t come back , MD’s heartbroken so she tries to look a little different by putting her hair up but their magical bond is still there


Remeber the idea of a dream team, and who would walk in dreams after Luna? What about Moondancer, she fits the theme, has powerful magic, and is quite similar to Twilight herself, yes Luna and Celestia don't look and aren't 100% similar but, they have a different build of body, not even the other alicorns (Cadence, Twilight, and Flurryheart) have the body strucksure! So it would make sense that the two new rulers also had some kind of simeraltiy! Luna also means Moon, and dancing is a series of movements, just like walking, puting one hoof in front of another so maybe instead of dream walking, Moondancer will dream dance, I know this is a bit of a crazy therory, and why Moondancer, when Twilight has closer friends, and well, I think it is like when Celestia locked Nightmare Moon up, each pair of rulers have to go through a time without the other, I realise how important they are to each other! Please don't hate, it's just my oppinuon and an idea! Also I saw a comment by xeno5 saying about how Moondancer and Twilight are oppsites of each other (with there colour plattes) just like Celestia and Luna!


Being serious, I think they're half sisters. Twilight's mother is where that manestyle comes from. Moondancer must be related to Twilight Velvet. And it doesn't seem unrealistic to think that she had Moondancer, but then had a fallnig out with Moondancer's father and split up, then falling in love with Night Light who she had Twilight with.

The one thing that causes issues here, is that this would make Moondancer a year older than Twilight, yet they're in the same class. Assuming ponies take 12 months like RL ponies. But if it's 9 months, then this is possible. It's really not the strangest thing, for people who go to school together to be siblings without knowing it. Just ask anyone for their family tree in this day and age, and you'll be shown a tangled forest. My own family tree is utterly insane. It's awkward when your sisters take a look and realise "Wait, we aren't blood related to each other?!" and yet they're both blood related to me. I have only 1 full blood sibling, the rest are all half bloods and step siblings. We're one family, but so few can even remember how we're connected in the tree. It just doesn't matter anymore. Who I call brother or sister comes down to who I grew up with for me.

So while I never experienced meeting someone and finding out they were related later, I have seen it happen. And it is generally people who live nearby... When it comes to cheating parents. This is why siblings can end up as neighbours. I just don't think Moondancer was the result of cheating, so much as it was just a simple breakup, with Moon's father getting full custody. Hell maybe Moondancer actually knew this?! Maybe she was drawn to her younger sister because she knew they had that connection that she was told to keep secret.

This would also mean that Morning Roast is also Twilight's older half sister. I just think this sounds better than them being twins and that was Moony was kidnapped or something.


i don’t think faring doo and moondancer are just lazy recolors, i think they were designed that way on purpose. moon dancer and twi are similar in a sense that moondancer shows what twilight could’ve been had she never went to ponyvile. in fact, twilight was well on her way to living the same way. it just goes to dhow two similar people reflected eachother as a mirror do: in a different way. daring doo and rainbow dash was probably just supposed to be similar in a way. some nerdy adventurous risk taker writing about her adventures, and rainbowdash fighting this infatuation with the series when daring doo was first introduced as a book series n pony. they’re both alike, despite the line being drawn at an activity rainbow dash found distasteful. the designs to me say “same but different”.


Coming back here after the show is over and before g5 starts makes me wish the show would have established more mane six look-a-likes.

Moondancer and Dareing Doo already exist but what if every main six member had a recolor counterpart, we would have had atleast one episode for each lookalike.
I even have ideas for the counter parts:
Applejack's would be a recently discovered cousin in the pear branch of her family.
Rarity's would be maybe a struggling painter who needs inspiration.
Pinkie's might be a pony who keeps their walls up and never lets anyone in.
Fluttershy's could be an abrasive pony who tries their best to be kind but who might fall short.


Maybe she's just holding on to the belief that Twilight might come back, and that everything could've gone back to normal, so she kept on dying her mane. But when Twilight did come back, she was dissapointed and didn't want to see her anymore. It just didn't live up to her fantasies or something.

Or maybe that's just her natural mane color.


Interestingly, on the original Moondancer toy (Gen 1, baby!) she only had stripes on her mane .  I never really thought this was weird as a kid, but now I'm like...WAIT a minute!  :P  The tail is the mane's...main colour but solid.  I should know, I've still got her in a box somewhere, and WOW that didn't sound psychopathic at all...  XD

As for Daring Do, I...always kind of figured her hair was in grey stripes (not counting the actual real-life reason, which is probably "they were lazy") because it USED to be more colourful, and had gone grey!   Think about it--how many non-saturated ponies are there?    I could easily see Daring Do as a middle-aged but still tough grumpy mentor type, ya know, the "I'm too old for this beep!" kind of character.

After all, she has been writing successful books for a while, and in real life that's an industry that usually takes a good bit of time and persistence to get into, let alone become a best seller.  I also always got the feeling of a full-grown adult who has lived some life talking to a teenager/college student, with her and Rainbow's interactions.

So, seperated at birth from Rainbow Dash herself...maybe not.  Seperated at her MOM'S birth...maybe?  (shrug)

Mmmm. I can’t lie, I love the idea of Moondancer’s hair being styled after Twilight in admiration. It’s so adorable


Daring Do and Moon Dancer are RD and Twilight without their elements. They symbolize the way they used to live their lives, Twilight being obsessed with studying and Rainbow obsessed with herself. Friendship and loyalty changed both these characters for the better and this is how the writers show it.

Reloaded Dice that’s an amazing observation!

What a beautiful theory ! Friendship really is magic xD

What a beautiful theory ! Friendship really is magic xD

Wow thats actually what could be the case here :0

Wow thats actually what could be the case here :0

Another reason Daring Do might look like RD is because RD, while reading the Daring Do books might have visualized herself as Daring Do. Readers often visualize themselves as the characters in books they're reading, and I guess the writers wanted to portray that.

Rainbow Dash actually was not obsessed with herself. She defended Fluttershy when the bullies at flight camp made fun of her.

Reloaded Dice Now that you mention it, that totally makes sense. If Rainbow Dash hadn't went on that adventure with the other mane 5 and found the Elements, she would have continued her life obsessed with herself and her talents. Same with Twilight, if she kept being stubborn - or we can take it a step back and say Celestia never gave her the assignment that took her to Ponyville - she wouldn't have learned friendship and therefore she would still be obsessed with studying and would even put it before others.

+SlimyWays - You are right moondancer is a unicorn from generation 1 my little pony

I like that theory! Maybe in future episodes then more of the 'No Element Ponies' might show up 😊

I would think Pinkie Pie's mach is Cheese Sandwich, and that Iron Will is not Fluttershy's mach, theyre more opposites, then twins

@Reloaded Dice Not too mention that the re-colours are sort of dull in comparison to the originals, and Moondancer barely has a colour scheme at all!!! It's horrific!!!

@***** Well thing is it's rather obvious what would happen with them if things never went the way it did. Just like in the preview released for Starlight glimmer coming back, they were all 6 connected because of the sonic rainboom. If that hadn't happened Dash wouldn't of learned what it's like to win a race nor how good it feels to be fast. Fluttershy would of stayed in cloudsdale because of the race never happening which was what caused her to fall. Pinkie would of remained on the rock farm, AJ would of been civilized in manehattan, Rarity would of gone to do something that wasn't dealing with fashion, Twilight owuld of never passed her test thus never meeting Princess celestia and going as her pupil, Spike would of never been hatched(which..I wouldn't mind.) Not to mention there no longer be an Equestria because Nightmare moon would return and with no way to harness the elements of harmony everything that has happened so far in the show would change. Think back to the future style when Biff went back in time to give himself the Alamanc and created an alternate future for Hill valley. If Starlight Glimmer goes back in time she will create an alternate reality where everything that has happened up to now will not be so. So this means we need to make a De'lorean time machine to go back in time to stop her.

@Reloaded Dice Not to mention another thing. Moondancer looked like twilight because Twilight was the first to ever open up to her and help her open up and make friends. So she wanted to look up to Twilight so I think the hairstyle is just her way of showing how much she appreciated Twilight for helping her stop being shy. Hence why she changed her hair after the party.

That is also my idea,but I think that all of the main six will meet a twin like this,and then the twins will become freinds like the main six.

@Reloaded Dice My only nay say is the Daring Do portion. While yes its an acceptable theory. I would, going by the original episode being it was a book character. Rainbow Dash probably saw herself like DD, thus the resemblance while the story played out. Due to the fanbase reaction, she was turned into a literal character and the visuals were already set in stone.

@***** But how did Fluttershy live her life before they all met. She always loved animals and was shy and caring? Rarity was able to control her fashion meltdowns and applejack realized her farm and family was more important. Did I miss anything?

So basically what your saying is that their the elements of disharmony
But that doest make sense because their is good in them........?

Well thats a whole nother story and my brain hurts from all these theories........ But seriously is that what your saying that their opotsis

plz reply

@Sɪɴᴏɴ Sʜɪɴᴏ The other mane 6 don't have recolour lookalikes, but I would say that Suri Polomare is the opposite of Rarity, Flim & Flam are the opposite of AJ, Iron Will MIGHT be an opposite for Fluttershy and I can't think of any pony for Pinkie Pie. :/

So do fluttershy, pinkie, AJ and rarity also have ponys like that?

So do fluttershy, pinkie, AJ and rarity also have ponys like that?

@Reloaded Dice Not here to comment on your theory so much as your username. Anyone else notice that it's incredible?

@TrueVenturianGirl They aren't opposites. Moondancer is just Twilight without one thing. Take a guess at what it is ;)

@Reloaded Dice
So
Daring Do = Rainbow Dash
Moondancer = Twilight
Surprise = Pinkie Pie?
Think about it, this is about recolors not opposites.
But then again, it would make sense if the recolors were opposites but all of them weren't made/ they don't have confirmed personalities yet.

@He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named I don't think there is a reasonable answer in the Equestrian universe, unless we accept the fact that it's just popular mane-cut.

@rainbowshine06 Loyalty is a trait the same way being kind is. I can learn to be loyal to people the same way I can learn to be kind, honest, generous, and.... how to have fun? Ok, I don't know about that last one, but you see my point.

Notion was looking for a reason within the equestrian universe, not something caused by the writers. Besides, even if we accept that theory, then we still have he same question. Why would moondancer and daring do be so similar, save for that one difference?

@TheStrategyBro ooo so we have similer threoys (i cant spel lol) i might do mlp anylize vids in the future i already have a mlp show :DDD

@***** actually, we already did pinky pie with Maud. If pinky hadn't learnt to smile with the rainboom, she would have ended up like Maud.

@punkin six Look at my comment, they all have opposites!

@punkin six Look at my comment, they all have opposites!

@Reloaded Dice omg after reading your theory they might be apart of a dishormoney mane six there might be alternate AJ, rarity , and the rest some where else!

NOOOOO WHY HER FLUTTERS BEST PON3<br>NUUUUUUUUUUU

@David Persaud maybe thats true but i dont know if the comics are canon

@David Persaud maybe thats true but i dont know if the comics are canon

@Reloaded Dice You got the same thing in Rarity takes Manehatten were Suri Polomare is her opposite. With Applejack her opposites are probably the Flim Flam Brothers. Pinkie Pie I don't know Maud, probably not. Fluttershy probably Iron Will is the most likely candidate.

@Reloaded Dice As a side note, we could argue that Pinkie's non-element form is her sister. Rarity's could be Suri Polomare (the designer from "Rarity Takes Manehattan"). But I dunno. Just a bit of speculation.

You just read my mind ! I also think so.  :)

@MizukiUkitake for the fluttershy recolour, is she gonna turn bitter from all the teasing she got when she was younger and not forgive the people?

So... Are we going to get Fluttershy and Rarity recolors?

So... Are we going to get Fluttershy and Rarity recolors?

@Reloaded Dice Another, yet hidden, message to kids that one chance encounter can change anything and everything.

My theory is unlikely but in the comics there was an eqeustria that was that opposite making multi-verse half canon so moondancer and daring do are from an alternate world

My theory is their counterparts that have a cause and effect but destiny took over but that's sounds right

I think that's the best theory to go with :)

Watching MLP videos, realizing the show has ended. T-T

@Shinobu with 𝚐𝚞𝚗𝚜 wait but the show has ended


What if it was the other way round and them looking so similar was just the reason they became friends? (Not so they were only friends because of that but how they got talking if that makes sense)


Maybe when Rainbow and Moon were younger they wanted to be like the ponies they admire, and that’s why they changed their styles to be more like them.


I believe the similar design was completely intentional, not to the taste of the characters, but to show a symbolism behind.
 Moon Dancer is a figure very similar to that of Twilight, perhaps to show who is watching how similar they are on the outside, or by a very light layer of life experience.  The change in "the way she takes care of herself" helps the viewer to understand how affected she has been by certain things that have changed the way she sees the world a lot, just as the viewer sees her change their similarity.
 Also reflects how Twilight reacts when it realizes that one of its friends is in trouble, after all, "who never put themselves in someone's shoes to understand how they feel?"


I think Moondancer(as somepony who looked up to twilight) "copied" twilight's hair style
Because of the reason being Moondancer looked up to her. Think about it, all Moondancers life she looked up to twilight.
It makes sense.


Twilight and Moon Dancer could be cousins. It would make sense why they have genetic similarities. All the ponies have genetic consistencies in their families. Similar colors, similar cutie marks, similar eyes. Makes the most sense, and also why Moon Dancer wanted to look to Twi in the first place. Some cousins who grow up together end up having several types of familial relationships. The younger cousin will try be, in at least one way for every aspect, the same as their older cousin. Younger cousins who grew up with their older cousins almost always have the desire to impress them and idolize them. Instead of sibling competition, it would end up being more like one cousin worshipping the other and the other is oblivious to it. The older cousin is so used to being around their younger cousin that they even forget that they’re friends as well as family. The older cousin gets bored faster and wants to go off and do other things while younger cousin is expected to stick with their cousin like always.

This kind of dynamic between cousins can get toxic. The older cousin becomes neglectful or abusive, often taking advantage of their younger cousin’s adoration of them, and even the older’s friends. Younger cousin wants to be a part of the friend group. Wants to learn how to just be from the very person they look up to. This dynamic is rarer amongst cousins who are closer in age, and is more common between cousins with relatively large age gaps. This large age gap usually means that the younger cousin may be too young to be around older cousin and their friends, especially if it involves things that younger cousin shouldn’t know about at that age. It can get messy, really.

Twilight didn’t notice Moon doing almost everything she did. That Moon was copying her. Twilight always felt alone because she thought nobody wanted to do the fun things she wanted to do, so she stuck her face in a book and hardly ever noticed Moon Dancer. If they’re family, Twilight was probably more comfortable hanging around another smart family member than she realized. She never sought to understand herself, to the point that she didn’t understand friendship until she was forced to leave to Ponyville. Moon Dancer was probably sick of never being noticed and chose to spite Twilight. She shut herself away and kept reading her books long after they graduated from school as foals.

Knowing that they are both unicorns with a high magic potential it could be possible Moondancer got hold of a permanent hair spell. When she was betrayed by Twilight, however, she wanted to try to change her look up (tying her hair) it also was convenient


I think it’s because everyone in the old friend group matches with someone, for example Twinkle Shine and Lemon Hearts or Minuette and Lyra Heartstrings. So, Twilight Sparkle and Moondancer were the remaining two so they were designed to match with each other.


Why does Moondancer look like Twilight? Probably in order to better visually represent the bond they once shared, and the similarities between them in personality through a visual medium. It's one of the oldest theming tools in the book you guys. And I can all but garentee you that Daring Doo was NEVER meant to be a real pony in the show, and the reason that Daring originally looked like a blander recolor of Dash was to represent Dash inserting herself into Daring's place in the story. As people generally tend to do when they read.


a girl in my primary school copied my hair to look more like me....but now we are adults and barely have anything to do with each other, we still both ended up dying our hair blonde. <br>similar face shape and skin tone so similar styles suit us.

Moon - Dancer and Twilight are meant to represent Unicorn Twilight and Princess Celestia. It shows how Twilight has developed throughout the years and that Twilight sees her past self in Moon - Dancer.


TWINS SEPERATED AT BIRTH<br>Every theory I have is they were seperated at birth because why not

TWINS SEPERATED AT BIRTH
Every theory I have is they were seperated at birth because why not

Huh. Never thought I would've found someone with a Varian profile pic in a My Little Pony video


Hasbro uses the same templates for most of the characters and recolors them, if you look at background characters you can see how many are similar. Hasbro was just being lazy.


I always assumed the Doylist reason was to draw a direct narrative parallel between Twilight and Moondancer. Sort of a, this would have been what Twilight became if she never went to Ponyville and learned about the importance of friendship.


I think Moon Dancer would look very good as an Alicorn with glasses on. All we need is to have Princess Twilight get her ready for friendship missions, she could do some and hopefully get her wings!


Just explained my theory in the rainbow do video so here we go and copy paste: well, a lot of ponies are very similar to each other. many characters share design. you could say it's animation lazyness, but I actually think it makes sense. why? they. are. all. horses. when you remove the color patterns, most horses would look the same to you, unless you're a horse expert or something. horse faces don't vary like human faces. the mlp ponies aren't exactly real horses, they can be born with basically any color in the world and their snout size can vary beyond human nose standards. due to these features they look different from one another, and this is why it stands out to us when two of them look the same, but we should remember they aren't humans. Also even unrelated humans can look really similar, hasn't anyone told you you look just like that celebrityTM, come on

רוני בן עזרא


I know, I know I'm 4 years late, but let me say this, I know some of you say Hasbro was lazy, but think about it, you know that saying where you're super great friends and that friend is like the sister/brother you never had, I think that's the case with Moondancer and Twilght.


Twilight and Moondancer be similar but they're a bit different.

Twilight seems more with it. She seems organized and professional.

Moondancer on the other hand looks a bit disheavled and also more eager about socializing.

Probably Moondancer relies on Twilight for support. Twilight might have taken Moondancer for granted maybe even finding her kind of creepy that she would hang out with her.

Twilight at least can compose herself in public well but Moondancer was probably more awkward.


Certain ponies lok like each other because they share similar traits; be it a love of adventure, loyalty, or personality traits or interests. Its that simple :)<br>Edit=spelling

I do like the idea that Moondancer was a Huge admirer of Twilight. I also personally like to think that they’re cousins. Hence the stripes in her mane and tail


I’ve noticed lots of ponies that have the same body/ mane as the main six, but most of them are background characters

First one I remember is the pony in the song “ behold princess twilight sparkle” ( not long after twilight became a alicorn )
There were ponies that looked like flutter shy with yellow hair and with rarities base ( not including the horn )


There are actually older generation of mlp that include characters that look alike to these two re colors. They are basically an older version of rainbow and twilight. Otherwise, they resemble what they would have been if they hadn't discovered friendship. My theory is that they are just kinda something the actors put in there to show that that's what twilight or rainbow could have been if they hadn't discovered friendship. But both of them have now that they met there future selfs. Notice that daring do has a grey mane. It's got the shades and stripes of dashes, but it's just dull. Maybe that's because she hasn't actually discovered friendship yet, or she is literally the opposite of rainbow dash. Just leaving out the awesomeness. It doesn't have the same thing with moon dancer tho. What do you think of my theory so far?


Am I the only one that realised that Moondancer kind of went backwards?
Eg:
Twillight went from reading all the time, to making more friends and loosening up.
Moondancer went from making friends and throwing parties all the time to reading.
You see how Moondancer and Twillights timeline are kind of reversed?


moondancer is one of my favorite characters design wise.


I seriously don’t know how the designer became lazy on drawing designs, but I think they improved during seasons


Moondancer is a reflection of Twilight before discovering friendship. Kinda the same for Daring Do and Rainbow Dash. <br>Fun Fact : Twilight's old friends are Moondancer , Minuette , Lemon Heart, Twinkleshine and Lyra Hearstring . Like Twilight and Moondancer have the same character model also Twinkleshine and Lemon Heart do and same for Minuette and Lyra . Pretty cool I think

im happy these videos kept going but honestly, hundreds of recoloured background ponies and there's nothing to be said
but a recolour of a main character and we suddenly need to hyper analyse it

real life people have look-alikes all the time


In My Little Pony season 5 episode 12 "Amending Fences" if you pay attention, Lemon Drop and Twinkle Shine look like recolored versions of one another (with different cutie marks of course) and if you pay attention to the picture Spike gave Moon Dancer later on in the episode; Lyra Harpstrings and Minuet (idk how to spell her name) look awfully similar too.

      My theory is that since they were a friend group with an even number of ponies (6) they decided that the 2 ponies that get along the most or go with each other, should twin! "Twin" in this case would mean 2 ponies that look alike or a lot like another pony.

      Now, seeing as Moon Dancer obviously gave up on friendship after Twilight didn't show up to her party and left Canterlot, she grew out her hair and tied it back and also grew out her eyebrows (those eyebrows tho😭) to show she was done twinning with a pony she thought was her friend and didn't care about friendship anymore after Twilight betrayed her (in a sense), but left her tail alone because she still had some hope that she would still try friendship.

      Another version of the "leaving her tail alone because so and so" theory (which this one was the original theory I had), is that Moon Dancer left her tail alone to show she still had hope in Twilight coming back to apologize and amend fences (ha ha see what i did there), which Twilight did.

      The reason Moon Dancer didn't accept Twilight Sparkles apology right away is because when Twilight didn't come to the party, it meant a lot to her because she was finally trying to socialize and make new friends, and one of her old/main friends, the one she looked up to the most, didn't show up and it hurt her.

1:07 did anyone realise that moondancer is holding her book upside down 😂


Excuse me while I start off in a different universe to explain my theory.

I think it's more of a Boy Who Lived situation. By that I mean both Harry Potter and Neville Longbottom had a very similar background and, according to the prophecy, could both have been the one to take down Voldemort. In the HP universe Voldemort could have 'chosen' either of the boys and ultimately he picked Harry.

Twilight Sparkle and Moon Dancer probably have more similarities aside from their looks. I think that Moon Dancer could very well have been the Princess of Friendship if conditions had been just right for her to take that part. Instead it was Twilight Sparkle who caught Celestia's attention. Can you imagine if it had been Princess Moon Dancer instead and it had been Twilight Sparkle whom had stayed behind as a loner in Canterlot? Could have happened.

Here’s my  theory they were going to be the first design but they chose the ones that we know and love but they were good so they wanted to keep them in the story so they Kept him in the story but it’s different characters that we know today


I like to think maybe it was the hairstyle of someone in a book they both liked and since they don't really care about looks they just never changed it


"Why did moon dancer look like twilight?"
Hasbro was simply  L A Z Y

"Why did moon dancer look like twilight?"
Hasbro was simply  *L A Z Y*


It may also be because those two where in the same group of six friends. If you look closely, two of them are also recolors, and the third one (Colgate) shares the same design as Lyra, who was also part of that group of friends, so maybe all the girls decided to look like the other in pairs


I always assumed that she wanted to pretend she was Twilight or related to Twilight since she doesn't seem to have any close family so she may have wanted to be like a sister to Twilight so she could have some semblance of family, even if Twilight was her idol.


Moondancer looks like Twilight because every character in that friend group looks like another pony within the group. (Twilight and Moondancer, Minuettte and Lyra Heartstrings, Lemonheart and Twinkleshine)  so they needed one to look like Twilight as well. That or they either used that to make the personality of Moondancer or they used it in the reverse way and made her look like Twilight because of her personality


I agree with you, but I want to add that moon dancer might have wore her mane up because she did not admire twilight anymore.

Yeah. It is a good theory I'd do the same I have the same hair as my bestie and if I didn't like her at all anymore well u know

Hi two years later haha but they said this in the video


It probably was just Moondancer styling herself after someone she respects and wants to emulate. The easiest way to start doing that would be through one's appearance.


I think the stripes were just natural and the rest she tried to look like twilight and I have some thing aextra moondancer's eyebrows change the first time we see moondaner her eyebrows are small but the second time we see her eyebrows are big but the third time we see her eyebrows are big and then after she showed moondancer the party and said sorry her eyebrows change to small I know why the first time we see her is in a flash back and she was happy that's because she didn't throw parties probely thinking what does parties have to do with eyebrows well Twilight was always studying so if she a finishes a book she would read a another book so she would always have a lot of studying so even back then she would say no only after she had went to Pony vill she would say yes and moondancer really wanted Twilight to be there she got mad you know when someone mad and there eyebrows change


You know I hated that episode. Twilight forced Moondancer into the whole friendship and party thing just to clear her conscious and get closure. Moondancer was perfectly content as she was. Friendship is great and all but it’s not the most important thing in the world or anything. And I don’t think it’s a good message to kids that you can just bother someone until they crack and then they will magically be your friend afterward. This is why I love the villians. Startlight was right about cutie marks. Cozy Glow made several good points. Chrysalis was trying to preserve traditional Changeling culture but had her home taken from her, and Tirek was betrayed by his own brother. I honestly feel bad about their situations and it’s a shame the tyranny of the culture of friendship took over.


I honestly never thought of Daring Do and Rainbow Dash looking similar. I however, instead thought of why Moondancer and Twilight look so similar. Like, right after I saw Moondancer I was like "wait, she looks so similar to Twilight."


About the taił , i think that she changed her hair cause of twilight but , maybe she didnt want to loose her fully and still let her tail to remind her of her "long Lost BFF"

IAmEmptyInside Because it’s behind her... OHHH-

But "BFF" stands 4 best friend forever...

I don't care for theories that much, I just watch them for fun. I go for the simplest answer. Permanent dye

Saniya Gardner ikr I’m a kid too this is unbelievable

ClementinesCorner yeah you might be correct

Zette Pascual wow I'm an kid and your saying this stuff just WOWWWW


I think she did style her hair after twilight but the stripes were just a coincidence. If twilight can be born with stripes and rainbowdash can born with rainbow hair, I don't think it's to far fetched to say Moon was born with hers.


Moondancer actually reminds me of the one in the 1980s, Moondancee and Star Dancer in are twins in Escape of Nightmare Castle. Just the fact that she is recycled


I first bonded with a childhood friend over the fact that we were wearing the same watch.  Maybe twilight and moon dancer first became friends as fillies because of their similar mane patterns?


She is inspired by twilight I remember hearing it in the episode


For Twilight and Moon Dancer, my thoughts are several reasons why they look like each other other then obvious Twilight could have been Moon Dancer. One of the main is their influence on each other, subtitle and otherwise. Another is they are related, but distantly (3-5th cousin) where more dominate trates show, but still far enough that other genetics for other to show up like color, features and so on. The finale being coincidence with being right time, movements and parents meet.

As for Rainbow and Darring Do, I think their is family resemblance, but with Daring Do being more a distant aunt. In case of point, in the episode Dash went fangirl, Daring Do revealed she was doing it for years, to the point her enemies mentioned it and her cranky body revealing it can't handle the stress. Her being a distant aunt that live in seclusion would explain a lot, especially since Dash would have no way to know about her since we have little idea about her family as she could be a orphan for all we know since what must consider her father is labeled by Hasbro as mentor instead of father.


Even Daring Do and Rainbow Dash are the same and they seem like sisters because they both have a brave and adventurous spirit .<br>Am I right

Am I right


Probably a coincidence. People irl can look very similar. Hell, there's a reason the word doppelganger exists.  Maybe some ponies with more simple mane styles look similar to each other just like people sometimes do.


Something I just realized now, and I'm a bit surprised to not see any comments about is this: Moondancer looks like Twilight Sparkle to bring symmetry/balance to her old group of friends.  Lemon Hearts looks like Twinkleshine, Minuette looks like Lyra Heartstrings, and so to continue the pattern Moondancer looks like Twilight Sparkle.


My theory:<br>Moon dancer was stilizing her hair like twilight to show TS was her idol, then when she felt betrayed she started wearing her hair up, BUT she kept the tail same and kept dying her hair and tail in hopes that twilight will someday come back and apologise to her

Smart theory, but I think What really crushed moon dancer was twilight’s first coronation(season3) Think about it, she gave a whole speech about how much she’s grateful and how much she loves her BEST friends, if moon dancer wasn’t broken before so, than she’s 100% broken now.


Okay hear me out...
Moon dancer looks like twilight sparkle

Twinkle shine looks like lemon hearts

Minuet looks like lyra heartstings


I think the streaks in moondancer's mane are a reference to g1 moondancer, a unicorn who looked quite similar to g4 moondancer
the g1 cartoon depicted her with a red mane but one of the verions of the toy had a purple streak, similar to g4 moondancer
edit:guys, she literally has the original moondancer's cutie mark, they recolored twilight to reference a g1 pony


Short answer: Hasbro didn't wanted to make a new model so they used Twilight's old model and just changed a few things such as the cutie mark, colors, etc.

For me there's 3 different ways I could see it, from the lightest to the most in-depth :
- Just doing a recolor to save time with no particular meaning
- Her new manecut is a caricature of her nerdy side. Having given up on friendship, she threw herself to studies and thus didn't go often to the mane dresser and simply adopted that manecut not to be bothered by her mane (that theory is fitting because she's got a "messy" manecut too, with bits of hair popping out everywhere). Also, her new manecut does make her look "grumpy" in my opinion, which is intended to emphasize the fact she doesn't want to have anything to do with friendship anymore.
- Your theory, imitating Twilight because she's her idol. (By the way, looking at that group photo from the ending... How can one NOT take Twilight as an idol? :D)

I'd be fine with either #2 or #3 ^^ I don't believe in something definite because I'm mostly sticking to canon :P

Also I don't know if you noticed (you haven't mentioned it in this video) but during the last scene of the episode, Moon Dancer has her old Twilight-like manecut back. It may be just because she's wearing that helmet after all... but it could also mean that she's back to taking care of her mane (notice how at the same time it doesn't look messy anymore) or that, following your theory, she's back admiring Twilight.


I honestly don’t think it was the animators being lazy. I think moon dancer is supposed to represent what would be Twilight if she didn’t experience the magic of friendship


Actually it should be why does Twilight look like Moondancer since moondancer was an original character in G1 shown as a baby in Escape From Catrina.


I used to believe that moondancer was actually related to twilight (maybe a cousin or second cousin) so much that I was genuinely surprised this wasn't brought up by you lmao


My Theory: Twilight and Moondancer are Cousins who like the same hairstyle


I think your theory is right but Moondancer didn't chance her tail is because deep inside she still cared about twilight maybe she secretly hoped to see her again

Edit: Maybe she did dye her main


o.O MAYBE THEY WERE TWINS (not identical of course) BUT GOT SPLIT APART AT BIRTH AND NEVER KNEW

umm OK
this is when my fan fictions go crazy
reason why is ........

The way the animators animate Mlp is with digital puppets. they can move around the legs and even reuse walk cycles and different forms of movement from previous episodes. You can simply take a twilight sparkle doing magic or even just her walking and select the hair color on each frame and change the colour. for the body all you have to do is take the color and change it to the yellowish color that her body is. Next you just draw out the accessory's and put them on the digital puppet. (correct me if any of this is wrong) This saves a lot of time for the animators. and I'm sure that there might be reasoning behind this and plenty theories.


Hmmm
In the episode crystalling flurry heart destroyed the crystal heart and light and love in the crystal heart is supposed to be what keeps King Sombra away so how did king Sombra not return?
Also it wasn’t the elements that destroyed Sombra it was the crystal heart which is one of the reasons Sombra wanted to consume it when it was gone why wasn’t he back? 🤔


another thing similar is they both have the three stars on them, and they both have names&cutie marks that relate to the night sky.


My theory: ponies can go to the mane salon and get what hairstyle and cut they want, those just happened to be popular


Sawtooth: And you thought one recolor was bad enough<br>Quibble: Allow me to introduce myself...

Sawtooth: And you thought one recolor was bad enough
Quibble: Allow me to introduce myself...


there are people in real life with similar hair, why can't the ponies do the same?

If they had no hair, Moondancer and Twilight still look very much alike. Moondancer is like a recollection of Twilight, except Moondancer has glasses and a different cutie mark.

It can cause conflict among the community about how the fanbase can't make recolors yet the developers can, even though the answer is blatant enough to understand.

True, but  it's uncanny just <b>how</b> similar their manes are, especially the colours.

True, but  it's uncanny just *how* similar their manes are, especially the colours.

I think she puts her hair up so it won't block in her sight while reading

I think moon dancer holds her mane up so it won't block her when she reads books

Chandra L Weaver Like Pretty Little Liars! Alison and Bethany looked identical!

But that doesn't explain the same designs, hair or no hair. 🤔🤔

because if you remove the hair the ponies all look the exact same. Their hair style is how you tell them apart. If you saw a silhouette of moondancer and twilight, you wouldn't be able to tell them apart.


Have you thought of Moon Dancer and Twilight are Doppelgangers? And that Daring Doo and Rainbow Dast are as well? Its not impossible.


maybe its magic or something, where when you have a close connection with someone or something you adapt and come closer to it


It was explained in the show that Moondancer styled herself after Twilight.


Lyra Heartstrings, Roseluck, Amythest Star, and Minuette: am i a joke to you?

In all seriousness, my theory is that they look similar for the same reason dopplegangers exist or people can look alike in gemeral. genetics. No, not just being related, but genetics tends to make people look similar for their noses, eyes, height, hair colour, or even their entire physic. Just look at Carrot Top/Golden Harvest and Daisy, or Lemon Hearts and Twinkelshine. So, in conclusion: genetics say so.


Moondancer is the best "bang from the past" event ever.  She is even better than Star Swirl the Bearded, who was mentioned in the second season as an existing pony, for some more airtime he revealed himself a little, and became a full-fledged character only at the end of the seventh season.  Yes, Moondancer wasn't as well developed as Star Swirl, but the event that started her mental problem was the FIRST event that happened on the show when Twilight refused to come to her party!


that makes candence related to shining armor


I think the creators were having trouble with creating new styles for the ponies so they reused some styles of the pony’s past/future.


Daring Do was obviously just intended to be Rainbow Dash just projecting her own feelings on a fictional character, which is why she imagined her to look like her. And somewhere along the lines, the writers must have decided to make her real and it messed that up. As for Moondancer, like you said, she was literally designed to make her be like Twilight. Nothing really worthy of hypothesizing over.


I think moondancer is twilight's first ever friend but twilight forgot, so moondancer began trying to do the things they did together as Fouls


I like the theory that moondancer idolized Twilight. I might be able to come up with a theory I like better if I really thought about it, but I'm too lazy to think right now.


I never thought this would come about. True, they maybe similar. But there are some important differences. Twily has wings.


To me it really just looks like the colors in twilights mane was reversed and put into moon dancer. Same hair style, eye color, personality, and twilights skin is purple while moon dancers is yellow, so it kinda reminds me of celestia and Luna!


I have noticed that the group of six friends before twi moved to pony ville, including twinkle shine, lyra heartstrings, moon dancer, lemon hearts and minuette, there are three sets of 2 with identical mane and tail styles.  Lemon Heart and Twinkle Shine.  Minuette and Lyra Heartstrings.  And finally Twilight and Moon Dancer.

And moondancer's mane is not a copy but a mirror version of twilight's my only point is that there are three basic sets.

Twinkleshine's mane is also more curled than Lemon's.

@StarShimmerSongs Actually, Minuette and Lyra have different mane and tail styles.  They're close, but different.

@Jamie Cotton I totally had a fangirl fit when I saw Moondancer in this episode! She was one of my favorite G1 ponies! <3

@Pending Storm No. Moon Dancer was a G1 pony and an inspiration for Twilight. Heck even old sketches of the show has Twilight with Moon Dancer's cutie mark.

@StarShimmerSongs This is the reason Moondancer looks like Twilight.


I feel like the character designer just didnt know how to design some of the other ponies so they made replica's of the mane 6 and changed the colour pallette and some other features.


genuinely love how your ponysona grew with time as well (just recently found you and im watching a ton of your old videos lol)


Maybe she wanted to be like her, like you said, with the style, maybe she couldn’t get her mane to change its style, after having it like that for so long, so she put her hair up, but didn’t know what to do with the tail, so she left it


I swear to god I’ve been wondering the same thing ever since they introduced her 😂


Maybe Moondancer felt abandoned and thought there was no point in still looking or even making other friends but she still had a bit of friendship in her and that’s why she kept her tail that way and thought maybe Twilight would maybe come back and Moondancer still had that in the back of her head so when Twilight set up the party 🎉 Moondancer excepted


I always thought daring doo looked exactly rainbow dash because when rainbow was first reading the book, she saw herself as daring doo, so she “looked” like her, in rainbows mind but I guess not. Idk tbh


What if Twilight styled herself after Moondancer, and just kept the style out of habit?


okay but now that I look at it doesn’t Moondancer remind you slightly of some other pony except twilight? I mean personality wise especially... she isn’t very patient, was hurt by someone close to her, she is smart but kinda hotheaded and slightly rude... she reminds me of Sunset... even the mane is like a reddish purple. Moondancer’s skin is yellow, but it has a tint of really light purple making it not as saturated. Theory: moondancer is twilights and sunsets child from the future that in some freaky accident got sent back in time and raised in that timeline which she doesn’t remember because she was too young.


Moondancer was basically inverted colors of twilight, with the pink and purple mane/tail colors switched and her coat was yellow (a complimentary color to purple)


your theory makes sense,
i really love Moon Dancer, glad we finally got to meet her,
great video dude

@Matthew Lo nothing wrong or insanely wrong with that statement WHAT THE SHIT


This may be a bit to late but look at their cutie marks Moondancer's is a moon with sparkles and Twilight's is a star with sparkels..... Suspicious.... 😏🤔

This may be a bit to late but look at their cutie marks *Moondancer's* is a moon with sparkles and *Twilight's* is a star with sparkels..... Suspicious.... 😏🤔


before DD was a real character, I thought it was because that's how RD was imaging her.

I thought she imagined herself as the main character Daring


Well I’m pretty sure it’s just because moondancer was meant to represent what twilight would’ve been without all the friendship does. That’s literally it.


The could be twins or sister cause that’s what I thought when I saw them


You need to make a video about how in the first 2 or 3 seasons twi’s magic is light pink but the rest of the show it’s dark pink


I think moondancer was mad at twilight but still admired her especially considering that she is how twilight used to be
Because twilight said this
"Exactly how I used to be"


"why does moon dancer look like twillght?"<br>me:because the people who were makeing the characters were lazy

"why does moon dancer look like twillght?"
me:because the people who were makeing the characters were lazy


MAYBE  bought have been together since they were born but to different mothers. Since they were best friends they wanted to look like each other but still to be recognised, so they dyed Moondancer's hair with a little of purple and light purple. And eye color ofcourse.


When I was looking at their cutie marks I noticed that they kinda look similar. They both have “main” shape in the middle and little stars around that “main” shape. Possibly relatives of some sort? I was thinking maybe cousins


I just thought of something. So you know how Moon Dancer (im gonna call her dancer) has glasses? Well, remember Sci Twi? Her glasses look exactly the same. Wait, Im not done yet. Remember how Dancer started putting her hair up after twilight left? And who else put their hair up when they left someplace? Thats right, Sci Twi. Now this is not an actual correct theory, I’ve just thought of it like 5 seconds age lol. EYE BROWS


I know the real reason why Daring Do looks like Rainbow dash and MoonDancer looks like Twilight.

It's because they're already tracer 😏

Edit: Why did I comment this?

@thesarahdilemma also you while typing that:

😐 *types*

@thesarahdilemma also you while typing that:

😐 **types**

{- ᴡᴇɪʀᴅ ɢᴏᴛʜ ɢɪʀʟ -}

Pfffft , it's because they'll go find another girl ,and they won't miss us


If they are both unicorns who grew up in the same general area, they could be distantly related. Maybe even cousins or something.


I remember Lauren Faust saying they don't always put logic into the show, so we shouldn't over think things all the time. Moondancer is likely to just be a recolor, same with Daring Do.


plot twist:
Moondancer was a foster adopt after the incident of Nightmare Moon's Banishment where in alternate reality she was supposed to raise & reign assistance to the banishment's release for the Kingdom of Night(Lunar Republic), hence the colour & character flip in the pilot series plot, but later to discover that "the stars" aid in its escape where Twilight is the only messiah/light bringer in presence of duty which left Moondancer to be an average whiz kid in magic school nothing better than to be a friend & student in the average unicorn smart-student life alongside the to-be Princess of Friendship Twilight Sparkle(as messiah of Princess Celestia).

don't ask me about those eyebrows...


Guys-
They aren't twins lol they just have the same design because Hasbro is lazy
The yellow pony with cyan/teal hair is Lemon Heart and the white cream colored pony with pink hair is Twinkle Shine. :p also you guys didn't mention Minuette and Lrya Heartstrings looking the same

But then again, animating 20 minute episodes in short periods of time must have been hard, so I can see why they reused simple designs. There are probably hundreds of canon characters in the show that can't each have a unique hairstyle, or pattern. That would make it 100 times harder for the artists working on the show. Don't forget that they have to aninate each character, make backgrounds, have colored line art, color pallets with many colors, in some scenes shading, and a ton of other stuff.

@Ukiyo Karoshi the yellow pony and very creamy white pony


I honestly think its because they have a special connection. Similar to Rainbow and Daring


While I watched MLP, I noticed there are more characters than Moon Dancer who has similar mane as Twilight.


Have you ever heard the theory that there are only so many different combinations of facial structures, and that, by law of averages, there are bound to be people who like uncannily alike? Well, maybe the same is true in horse-land; and maybe even to a greater degree. Perhaps this applies to both Twilight/Moondancer as well as Rainbow/Daring Do.

@cannedcream Yes! I heard that there are 6 people in the world who look almost identical to you, and there is a 9% chance you will meet one of them in your lifetime. As for the pony world... IDK. :D

plus with the same personality? it had to be influenced


Maybe Twilight's style was a common way of wearing your hair back then, and now the style changed, but Twilight didn't.


THEY might be separated cousins?

Or they can be...... IDKK!

*THEY* might be separated cousins?

Or they can be...... IDKK!


Cousins? Night light is Twilight's father, and it's a known fact that names are spoofs of both parents, etc. So Night Light has a cousin, with the shared relative is on Night Light's side.


It is much cheaper to do a similar toys than to make a special form for each kind of toy.


Maybe its just help for the less "sharp" side of the audience that Twilight and Moon dancer are similar.


It's NOT a coincidence that Moondancer looks like Twilight Sparkle. It's because Moondancer really DID look up to Twilight. But after she didn't attend Moondancer's party, Moondancer saw Twilight differently. Sawtooth is right when he said that that is what would happen if Twilight didn't learn about friendship and would end up being like Moondancer is now.


Her design is like those mini toys from those mlp blind bags a repaint of one of the main 6 sometimes even the main 5 since the people in Hasbro just uses the same rainbow dash mold for fluttershy


My theory:They have the same character design but different colors.


They look like ponies that have the same personalities
Moondancer & Twilly
RD & DD/A.K. Yarelie


There's really not a reason. The artists and producers probably got lazy lol.


I'm saying that Daring Do and Moondancer would be  Twilight and Rainbow Dash if they did not find friendship.


I think Moondancer was just so interested in what Twilight was interested in that they just styled their manes the same way.


honestly i get why you could think that twilight was and "idol" to moondancer, but honestly i think its just like the background ponies the editors copy and pasted twilight and recolored her as moondancer but we'll never know...


I personally think Moondancer is gay and had a crush on Twilight. They just didn't know they had feelings for each other. That would also explain Twilight's bi color scheme.


Oh my gosh! I just realized that Moondancer and Twilight have NIGHT names!

sunset,Twilight,Moon,Than comes starlight in the middle of the night
So now MLP is telling how time works?
I thought this was for fun
not learning..

I grew up in a hippy town and I've actually met a girl named Moondancer who had a similar look to the character (this was before the show) which i found kinda weird when i saw the show :P

MrSocks, a story recently aired about two BFFs discovering that they are actually brothers! So, I think the sister theory could work!

Seriously? People are just noticing that NOW?

Joel Eldo But what about Moondancer? Sure, the moon is a part of night, but dancer doesn't have anything to do with shimmers? Actually, it could mean like light dancing, which is what glitter shining looks like. Maybe they are all connected... But if they are, why do only Twi and Moon look alike, when the others look different?

You guys are just noticing this stuff? Starlight and Sunset's names are literally both plays on twilight, with starlight rhyming and sunset being a similar time of day. Also, shimmer, sparkle, and glimmer all have very similar meanings.

Sunset, Twilight, Starlight & Moondancer

Yes, I don't know why but I'm starting to think that they're sisters.  But they're not because their friends...


Is it possible for a pony to never get a cutie mark?


i think the Moondancer  looks like this because the creators of the show wanted to show that it is very similar to Twilight


"Why does Moondancer Look Like Twilight?"

People who didnt understand this Video,  you know why they look alike? Because there married together. Not believe me? Search Google. Moondancer And Twilight Are Married Together

"Why does Moondancer Look Like Twilight?"

*People who didnt understand this Video,  you know why they look alike? Because there married together. Not believe me? Search Google. Moondancer And Twilight Are Married Together*


My Theory:  they were twin sisters that shining armor knew about they were separated at birth because your parents just couldn’t take care of a third child so they put her up for adoption show me yours later when their Phillies then meet again but only as friends they never found out that they were twin sisters and shining armor never told any of them


i. really feel like moondancer crushed one of my theories. the theory was ponies CAN"t have glasses. because have u ever seen a pony with glasses? could u do a video about that?


yes sweetie Drops my little pony friendship is magic 😁


sometimes kids who grow up together end up with similar fashion senses


they couldve looked so similar and that brought them closer? i know ppl that started friendships just because they shared a name or hair style


Here's my theory (it's a bit long):

Okay so a lot more often than not, friendships are started by having something in common.

Moondancer and Twilight not only look alike but also have similar interests but what's to that it didn't start out that way? Twilight could've introduced the world of books and studying to her which could explain why they probably weren't equivalent intellectually and magically since Twilight had a head start. This would push Moondancer to study even harder to the point of seclusion so that she could keep up with Twilight. This would also explain why she was so hurt when Twilight didn't come to her party. How would you feel if your best friend, the person who inspired you to be the person you are, didn't show up to your first social event?

Also, Twilight leaving left a gap in her life. Having no one to compare her knowledge with, she continued doing what she always did, study.

So if Moondancer and Twilight weren't both interested in books in the beginning, then what could've sparked their friendship? The fact that they look alike. People who share physical traits with you are often easier to approach and Moondancer probably being a shy filly since she didn't have many other friends could've found comfort in their similarities and approached Twilight first.

As for the reason why they look alike, there are only so many combinations that make up a person or pony in this case. In fact, there are on average about 7 other people on the planet who look like you. The fact that they look alike isn't exactly impossible. Especially since there's less physical features (not including color) that are possible in Equestria far as we know, so it wouldn't be unlikely that ponies find look alike.

Anyway, that's my theory. What do you think?


Maybe they just showed us through another character how it would look like if twilight never gave friendship a try . Maybe Moondancer is also a relative of twilight


How to make a Moondancer: Copy Twilight. Then make those eyebrows THICC.


I think that Moon Dancer's idol is still Twilight Sparkle. So she let a little space to keep her paste when Twilight was her true goal.


I think Twilight and Moon Dancer are sisters but they don't even know.


I dont see people complaining about <b>Hasbro</b> having recolored OCs...

I dont see people complaining about *Hasbro* having recolored OCs...

My comment has too many likes.<br>EVERYONE UNLIKE NAW!

My comment has too many likes.
EVERYONE UNLIKE NAW!

@***** atleast the recolours are nice and unique, not like red and black, no no. Light colours.

@***** Aaah, yes. The Seekers. They are the first recolor of a character by Hasbro. Starscream, Thundercracker and Skywarp: the original repaints.

@the shadowlink ninja
okay than you don't care :p
I understand what you mean c:

@***** Bon Bonnie, or secret agent Toy Sweetie Drops?

Ikr! There are so many recolored background pony!

yes but this is about childhood friends having the same hairstyle, they have a reason, I'm still mad about Daring Do being a re-color<br>(btw cool pic of Bon-Bonnie)

yes but this is about childhood friends having the same hairstyle, they have a reason, I'm still mad about Daring Do being a re-color
(btw cool pic of Bon-Bonnie)


I think that Moon Dancer and Daring Do are some kind of doppelgangers. I know this is most likely false but I like the idea of there being doppelgangers in the Mlp universe. Also I think Moon Dancer is the lunar version of Twlight since her cutie mark is a celestial body with stars around it this could represent the rest of Twlight's old friends. Since the show ended this won't happen but maybe in a au Moon Dancer could have had Twlight's role instead.


The real reason there design looks the same is probably the creator couldn’t be bothered to make a new characters lol


Can we take into account the way Pinkie's mane looks like no other pony's with the exception of Cheese?


I have a possible theory for the rainbow And daring vid:

 Maybe since rainbow dash is reading the book in her imagination she just made daring look like herself, because she couldn’t take the time to think up a look.

Edit: I just remembered that they actually meet her and she looks like that. Never mind.


Moondancer looks like a traced twilight oc...


It's easy for why they look alike Moondancer envy twilight so she wants to be like her and that also involved looking like her , while the same is for rainbow dash they're aren't twin rainbow dash just envy that explorer (forgot her name) and wanted to be like her so she decided to look like her


nice theory but i’m p sure it’s bc twilight = smart moon dancer = smart, so they look similar that’s what the producers intended to do. her hair being tied up was bc she can study easily without the hair being annoying, it wouldn’t be bc she felt abandoned, i mean she can just cut her hair


I thought daring do and rainbow dash looks the same because their hairstyle is the most "natural one". What I mean is that we know Rainbow isn't the kind of pony to brush her hair and style her hair elegantly every day, like Rarity would. Her hairstyle has a lot of strands and spikes, it is not elaborate, it's the kind of hairstyle you get when you just brush your hair and do nothing special with it everyday. It's natural that two ponies who have the same personnality and an active and adventurous lifestyle would have the same hair routine, and if that hair routine is just brushing their hair when they wake up and cutting it once in a while, there is not a lot of room for variation and it is normal if their hair ends up looking the same.


I feel like all the mane 6 has 1 or more points with the same design, but different color pallette. Like  Twilight and Moondancer, and Rainbow Dash and Daring Do. Maybe the others just have got any screen time or were just used for background characters?


Plot twist Moondancer is Twilight’s evil sister pretending to like her when in reality, Moondancer wants to kill the two sisters


Maybe ponies just have genes for these body types, and certain hair styles are popular or genetic.


What if Moondancer and Twilight saw each other's simmilarities and said "We have to be friends"?


i feel like it’s to show what rainbow dash and twilight couldve become if it weren’t for friendship


Twilight Sparkle & Moon Dancer look the same when they have a, certain smile when their cheeks get big. Side note:Moon Dancer rocks.


Ok so Moondancer is a female..
So as Twilight! And according to Google
Twilight's husband is Moondancer and they both had a kid. WHAT?!?


Anyone know if they did a theory on why Limestone Pie looks and acts like a Flutter shy recolor dispite the one allegedly being Pinky's twin... and well the whole earth pony and Pegasus thing as well.<br>i know im probably really late in asking this.

Anyone know if they did a theory on why Limestone Pie looks and acts like a Flutter shy recolor dispite the one allegedly being Pinky's twin... and well the whole earth pony and Pegasus thing as well.
i know im probably really late in asking this.


what if someone attempted to perform a cloning spell and what better pony to perform it on than twilight sparkle


Maybe the hairstyle was a popular hairstyle amongst unicorns in Canterlot but grew out of fashion, with only Twilight and Moondancer keeping the style.


Maybe when moondancer dyed her hair she used a special pony made permanent dye.


When you realize it’s more then just moondancer and also a lot of pony’s are the same exact as all the others just different colors


Rainbow Dash and Daring Do look the same.
Twilight and Moondancer look the same.
Pinkie Pie and Orange Delight look the same.
Maybe Sawtooth might do a video on the next generations of pony-clones.


For both of the pairs of similar ponies(twilight and moondancer, rainbow dash and daring do),
My theory is

Hasbro was being lazy


just a thought. i think theese should be the princesses. sunset, twilite moondancer starlight. they all seeem alike. two have purple coats and the other two have cream coats. moon sun and stars. theres more to discorver in season 9 but its all i got sorry for bad spelling im tired :)


actually moon dancer supposed to the original twilight but Hasbro decided to make a purple twilight moon dancer is twilight


Is it me or could I see moon dancer singing other friends


Damn I didn't know how thick moondancer's eyebrows were.


I remember watching this channel as a kid 😭

SAMEE I always watched these kinds of vids back then


If you look at the other friends in their group they have the same hair like minuette and lyra


Sawtooth wave: why twilight
Looked like moondancer?
Me : the creators of the show saw
a picture of a recoloured of twilight and said 'Perfect '.


I kinda always thought Moondancer and Twilight looked like twins


Well, plenty of humans look alike (they say that everyone has a twin somewhere). Take actresses Nina Dobrev and Victoria Justice, for example. Though they might make a better comparison to Rainbow and Daring.

chloe raelee you could say step dad instead

My friend Emily looks like my dads wifes (Not my mom they're divorced) brothers child her name is Audrey they look the same sound the same and pretty much act the same.

I thought I saw my best friend in my homeroom class but it wasent her . they look so alike they could be twins! Both wear glasses and have the same hair style as well.

Omg so true Nina and Victoria are like twins


Don't sometimes people that have no connection to each other end up looking the exact same how come they can't just be double gangers I believe that's what it's called


i think that although Twilight didn't show up Moondancer still looked up to her.


This episode always somewhat irked me? For a smart pony like moondancer I don't think she doesn't know that twilight basically saved the entirety of equestria that same day she left, can't she be a little more forgiving lmfao I get her feelings were hurt but party<lives of all the ponies and beyond equestria from the chilling everlasting night of nightmare moon


This isn't crazy they actually showed a meeting here it's twilight just spend her time on studying this would what what happened to that character could happen to a Twilight Princess we're having to her could happen to her UFC didn't get that message from Princess Celestia CC she could become Randi Kaye one who just wanted the study that could happen to her if she didn't make friends in Ponyville.
