Someone has probably pointed this out before me but in her monologue to starlight she says "*you ponies* have it all wrong", implying that she herself isn't a pony. Some people up to and including that point thought she might have been chrysalis in disguise but now that we know that's not the case, this phrasing stands out as an oddity. If she's not a pony, than what is she? I really like this theory.

Probably just supposed to be like the phrase ‘you people’

@Ianoliano but a huge point of the season is the student 6 being different races.

I mean, that could just be the equivalent of someone saying 'you guys have got it all wrong', does that mean they're secretly a woman?

@Daniel Survivor true. But its one more point to tack on to the video

@Annaka Connelly There are genuinely Americans who don't celebrate 4th of July bcus of "it's a bad holiday"

So she could still think the holiday is silly without being from another world

Or it translates to something like,
 "You guys got it all wrong "
Though very boring the simplest answer will most likely be the correct answer.

she said that because she is a Pegasus not an earth pony read my coment and you will see she is not cozy

she said that because she is a Pegasus not an earth pony read my coment and you will see she is not cozy

She also when she was accusing the young six of doing all that she did she said “these creatures want to drain magic because it’s the only thing ponies have that they don’t” but if she is a pony why wouldn’t she say we

Adding to this I do to think she does not belong there because one where have cozy bloom parents been trough all these episode so does that maybe mean she sneak trough the portal all by her self

She also insulted spellcasters by saying "you rely so much on your tricks you forget to use your brains". I think she absolutely has at least some vendetta against unicorns and other magic users.

@Sawtooth Waves i really like your mlp theories and fan head canon stories :) and I was wondering can u do a theory of why rainbow dash acts so much like a cat/cheetah and having sort of a cat personality in some episodes and certain comic scenes ?

and another theory of why during the fall of sunset comic, moon dancer had a different hair style and fur color and was the same age as sunset shimmer while twilight was a filly at the time but then in the episode the amending fences episode moon dancer looks different and somehow is the same age as twilight sparkle ? ^^💧

You guys never use "you people" in real life?? I'd imagine the phrase "You ponies" would have the same meaning

@Mara Schwartzmann in the case of that line i have no doubt authorial intent was for it to come across as you people, but the delivery itself, to me, always seemed off which is why I read it as you humans. who knows? maybe the voice actress also felt a certain way about the line and that's why she decided to say it like that, or maybe im reading way too into it. its fun to speculate either way.

I like this theory, but what if a person said “you people have it all wrong,” would that make them not a person? Or is it like “You humans have it all wrong” (which would make more sense to this theory 🙂

Yeah I think so but what happened their siblings yeah I know I'm talking to the first one but come on the siblings of why no angel or nice or interact like why not Ybor mysterious and lava demon or a demon

it's basically the pony equivalent of "You people"

if someone were to say the sentence, "You people are insane" it doesn't necessarily mean that the one that said that is not human. Same can be said for ponies. But hey, what do I know? I started watching the show last year.

“You people have it all wrong” I don’t see the problem

I think this is true but I don't think the girl in the canteen is her. Like Sawtooth said she doesn't have the same eye color and she has a slightly different hair color and the human girl doesn't have freckles.

I really thought that was a normal student then when I meant cozy glow I went back to the episode and I was like OMG THAT IS COZY GLOW

OMG my theory actually went deeper but it was similar! its in the comments of this video btw

@Shobha Sharma EXACTLY! and she emphasised ponies weirdly too, it held so much malice I was like you're a pony too! But maybe she isn't...

@Annaka Connelly oooooo you're right i totally forgot she said that! Just one more mark on the list of sketchy things she said

Discord, Gilda, and other magical creatures constantly reference ponies in the same way as Cozy, as if to separate themselves from ponies in general. I don't think ponies have refered to themselves in that way... until Cozy

@Miniş Dünyası yes. this is DEFINITELY right. explains a lot, actually.

@Miniş Dünyası yes. this is DEFINITELY right. explains a lot, actually.

Something else: I noticed that in Summer Sun Setback, Cozy is like "Its their silly sun holiday", implying she does not celebrate the summer sun celebration. Since all equestrians do celebrate this, and its a HUGE deal, calling it silly is like growing up in America and calling the 4th of july silly. Course, if you aren;t american, that wouldn't be strange. A bit rude to americans, yes, but I can see Cozy being a little rude. So, is Cozy Glow not from equestria?

What if cozy is a changeling unreformed helping chrysalis

@Sawtooth Waves <br>Same for in season 9, while she was hiking up the mountain as ‘Grovar’ requested, she was getting upset with some pony who lived on the mountain, she said “Ponies are supposed to do what I want!”

@Sawtooth Waves
Same for in season 9, while she was hiking up the mountain as ‘Grovar’ requested, she was getting upset with some pony who lived on the mountain, she said “Ponies are supposed to do what I want!”

Also in the season 9 finale, Cozy says "that's the problem with you magic type. You're so dependent on your power, you forget to use your brains" but Pegasi also have a type of magic, and infact, Pegasi, Earth Pony and Unicorn magic was all in Grogar's bell, who's power Cozy absorbed

@Sawtooth Waves can you pls answer my question.. we know that spike is not big because he is not greedy but in the future what happend ?

@gretta Then she would have probably agreed with everything Chrysalis said, right? Maybe even support her when she said " friendship is like a illness, speading though my hive.I watched it infect my changelings.I will not let it infect me." or something, you know?

Yes , this is true . This is a hint that she is NOT from the pony race rather some other race , maybe like humans !!! Though, cozy glow human entering the magic world is a little far fetched till now because we don't have enough information about her

It's probably just the term "You people" kind of like that, there isn't an equivalent term for that in MLP, I think.

@Sawtooth Waves If you think about it. It makes sense, since her parents aren't present in Equestria. So if Cozy Glow is a human, then oh no... Welp Cozy Glow is now on every milk carton in the human world.

Well Ponys say "pony" in much like anypony or sompony.<br>If Cozy say "you Ponys" dosn't mean she is no Pony.

Well Ponys say "pony" in much like anypony or sompony.

think this is true because in a episode she casts a Shadow and it seems to look like a she demon.

think this is true because in a episode she casts a Shadow and it seems to look like a she demon.

@gretta that's a nice thought but then why would she stay hidden from chrysalis when they started working together? Why not reveal herself as one of her subjects who stayed loyal to her unlike those traitorous do gooders who succumbed to the power of friendship?

@heemae could be, probably how it was meant too in the script. I think we all know that none of these theories are what the writers intended. But to me that's not how the line delivery came across. And at the end of the day this is all just fun speculation.

She could have been another changeling that didn't transform, right? One that left the hive when Chrysalis' reign ended? Thorax probably wouldn't have noticed, anyway. The hive was still undergoing transformation as well. It would've been easy to just leave. Still being loyal to Chrysalis, this changeling might have wanted to carry out Chrysalis' need for revenge on Starlight since what changelings had always done is whatever the Queen wanted.

@Tom Sparrow it just like someone saying "you people" she didn't really see her self the same as them

@Tom Sparrow it just like someone saying "you people" she didn't really see her self the same as them

Rarity says "hands" a lot. Also Cozy is talking to the ponies specifically ignoring the other creatures because she was talking just to/about the ponies.

@heemae yes, but the way she said "you ponies" specifically. We never hear anyone say it like that, she puts an emphasis on you ponies like it's an other from herself. Maybe it's just a weird line delivery but i think it supports this theory quite nicely

I mean they always use pony after everything like: nopony, everypony etc

I mean they always use pony after everything like: nopony, everypony etc

I have a theory about Cozy Glow. But my theory doesn’t have the human Cozy just the Equestria Cozy.
Cozy Glow’s parents were both Unicorns. (This is possible since Mr. and Mrs. Cake had a Unicorn and a Pegasus Pony so if a 2 Earth Ponies can have a Unicorn and a Pegasus 2 Unicorns can have a Pegasus.) But Cozy’s parents weren’t good parents because they knew that their child aka Cozy couldn’t cast Spells and didn’t have The Magic of A Unicorn. And Cozy figured that her parents didn’t like her because she couldn’t cast Spells and didn’t have The Magic of A Unicorn. So Cozy wanted to be as Magical as possible to impress her parents. To prove to her parents that she was worth something.
Since we don’t know about Cozy Glow’s Parents there’s a lot of potential for them. We know that parenting techniques make the child who they are even in The MLP Universe Diamond Tiara and her Mom being one of the examples.
There has to be someone who caused Cozy to think that she needed magic. And Unicorn Parents makes sense.
But what do you think? Who or What could’ve gave Cozy to think that she needed magic? There are a lot of possibilities

"You humans got it all wrong!"
- the human
-the joke

"You humans got it all wrong!"
- the human
-the joke


The only problem with this theory is that the background human is around the same height as Twi and the other main characters, while the human CMC are shown to be much shorter. And given that pony Cozy is the same height as the pony CMC, a human Cozy would logically be around the same height as the human CMC, and thus unable to be the background human.

But what if, the background human was human Cozy's older sister?

Also the human is seen wearing a star button which is the human world’s equivalent to a Cutie Mark. Every human in the Equestria Girls series has a symbol either on their clothes or an accessory that they are wearing. Some like Abacus Cinch aren’t so obvious until you look closely.

Maybe she could be her sister

Closue glow

@Rinny Merckx Because she's shown to be a similar height to those sitting next to her, and most people at the school are about as tall as Twilight. <br>The CMC, DT and SS, and Snips and Snails are the only exceptions.

@Rinny Merckx Because she's shown to be a similar height to those sitting next to her, and most people at the school are about as tall as Twilight.
The CMC, DT and SS, and Snips and Snails are the only exceptions.

If the possibly human Cozy Glow is only shown sitting down, how do you know for sure that she wasn't a smaller height than Twilight Sparkle?

You don't think about what you're talking on with your comment history

That is what I said in my theory as well!

That would also explain the background humans lack of freckles

I do see some resemblance in the background human character and cozy. So I do think that they might have some connections


For me there're some problems with this theory :
1. Their eyes aren't the same color
2. Their mane/hair are not the same color (human has 1 shade of blue, Cozy has 2)
3. Cozy has freckles, but not the human
4. The star on the human's clothes looks like it could be her cutie mark.

The Star is the human equivalent to a Cutie Mark. Every human in the series is wearing something that has what their Cutie Mark would be if they became Ponies. Abacus Cinch has earrings that resemble the beads on an abacus, Principal Celestia is wearing a brooch, and a majority of the characters all have theirs on a piece of clothing.

maybe the star is some sort or star student badge, kinda like the thing cozy had in the pony world, at twilights school

I mean the star one is probably just something to make her stand out cozy probably dyed her hair and styled it the freckles could just be make up to make her look more charming


Still kinda missing a few things: The signiture freckles, the character's cutie mark as part of the human version's clothing. Those are all details you'd expect if that was actually Cozy in EqG.
Personally, I think the differences are too strong to form a connection.

However, the projection interpretation does actually make a lot of sense in context. In fact, it could arguably have been what the writers were going for. I dunno. It's a subtle detail, but a good one.


animators: reuse color palette because it works nicely<br>sawtooth: YES, IT IS ALL COMING TOGETHER

animators: reuse color palette because it works nicely
sawtooth: YES, IT IS ALL COMING TOGETHER

@rin‼ then why was she so short in Equestria?

I thought the same thing since the human had a star cutie mark / button.

@Pequeña Esposa Maybe she's just tall? Height can't determine age.

@Ovee LMAO WHEN I TRANSLATE THIS IT COMES OUT AS "Kirrer huhh" BSBPUSG7S

Lmao, not to mention she is clearly an adult as seen comparing her height to her seat and comparing the og main 6 to their seats like bruh, the only similarity at all is the hair and coat pallet she didn't even have freckles


Imagine if there was no pony Cozy Glow or a human Cozy Glow, and she was a parallel universe Queen Chrysalis the entire time

@Luis Penn ur the one not using ur brain he/she said imagine and said parallel parallel means alternate, other and different

[ slaps on the head] She isn't a changeling or Queen Chrysalis okay use your brain. Remember Cozy Glow talking to queen Chrysalis okay.

Wow I love the idea but you can't really explain the colours


I've always questioned what kind of horrible backstory she would have had in order to become so twisted. I also had a problem that the mane six put a CHILD in literal HELL. And that they didn't at least TRY to reach out to her.


Y'know, speaking of Cozy Glow's past, even though there are absolutely no mentions of her past in the show I think we can get a vague idea by analyzing the episodes she appeared in (especially her debut episode). We also have to keep in mind that this IS a child. Not some kind of immortal demon trapped in a child's body. Not an unreformed changeling. But a child.

I could write PARAGRAPHS analyzing her motives and what lead her to go down the path she did but I suppose I'll leave that to another time. For now I'll just sum up what I think in one sentence: Cozy Glow was just a lonely child with no friends who wanted to learn about friendship and when she did, she misunderstood it and used it to gain power.

I can also assume that there was some kind of bullying, abuse or abandonment involved. Perhaps even all three. But I suppose I don't really have much evidence to back this one up.


It wouldn't be too difficult for Cozy to find out about the portal; everyone literally could have seen Twilight walk through the portal if they were standing at the front door. Given how Starlight Glimmer could get into the castle with no issues, Cozy definitely could.


If she is human. Maybe going to the pony dimension gave her a Napoleon complex when she found out she was short

@Karuniko Musahi Official That makes sense in the context of twilight's becoming an Alicorn. If it were magic to do it I think other characters like Trixie with the Alicorn Amulet would too transform into one but it doesn't happen in cases like that

@Sanjay Dighrasker well she only appeared in season 9

Maybe- but

I don’t know how a little girl like her is so strong?! 💀 where’d she get her alicorn form from? It can’t just be given by a bell- there must be a spell

"Hey! I'm average hight for the timmeee!-"

As a person who enjoys history: this, this comment right here. I love it, every single word.

@Ramen Noodle Soup it was actually average height for the time, and most movies aren't real, including whichever one your talking about.

Plot twist. She wasn't even a filly. She was fully grown but just small af

Napoleon was 5'6 Witch is pretty tall for some people nowadays also IF THAT WAS SHORT THEN AND HE WAS 5'6 AND WE ONLY GOT SHORTER FROM THEN THAT MEANS o-o WE WERE AT LEAST 8 FEET TALL AWHILE BACK MAYBE 500 THOUSAND YEARS AGO hmm and in the movie tall girl A DUDE NAMED STIG FROM SWEDEN WAS VERY TALL THEY SAID IT WAS NORMAL SO PEOPLE FROM SWEDEN ARE 8 FOOT TALL CAVEMAN I rest my case

@Dreamer5959 And what better way to belittle your enemy than to actually "be <i>little</i>  " them?

@Dreamer5959 And what better way to belittle your enemy than to actually "be _little_  " them?

Or just maybe...

Hasbro just liked that color palette, so they decided to use it again. :O

If she is human, then we're is pony cozy glow?

This has nothing to do with your comment but uh- those 666 likes-

Lol she would say “what! I’m not supposed to be short! Ugh!”

Napoleon wasn't actually short, it's a confusion between the English and the French methods of measuring

@Wildcard71 Hmm. Maybe. Didn't she demo a cave entrance or something in School Raze?

Do you think she's related to Short Fuse?


I love Cozy Glows cutie mark also in relation to her personality. A chess piece as chess requires you the carefully think out a strategy ahead to eventually reach a goal. Then the meaning of the word Rook, the specific chess piece she has, to defraud, or swindel someone XDDD


can we just appreciate the cozy-glow art on the thumbnail and 1:32 ?


Another piece of evidence cozy says “you pony’s had it all wrong” implying she isn’t a pony


Even after watching "school raze" multiple times, i still don't fully understand why Cozy Glow wanted all the magic gone.
At one point, she said she wanted to be the new princess of friendship, saying that "Friendship is Power". with Twilight gone, she would be the new PoF, and have more friends than anypony else, and therefore be the most powerful pony in Equestria. but i don't get why. Tirek wanted co consume magic to destroy Equestria, and Chrysalis wanted the love to feed her hive, but Cozy never gave a complete reason.
But you, Sawtooth, finally gave a reasonable answer. it really makes sense for her to want all magic gone, now.

but one thing i still cant believe is that she could act that well, she's even more manipulative than Chrysalis. it might be her act getting to me, but i believe she has the most potential to reform compared to the others, after all, if we don't take into account this theory, all she wanted was friends. if she'd waited longer, she would have made the most friends in the school, even if she did get them via manipulation

She never thought that far. She is still a little filly, after all.


all thoughts aside, I can kind of tell the animators had fun with cozy, especially when she's angry

@• cactusspring • <br>I also thought of Bakugo lol

@• cactusspring •
I also thought of Bakugo lol

@• cactusspring • welp,that's cool- i'm not the only person that came from mlp to anime

@• cactusspring • i know this isn't about anime but i suddenly thought of bakugo in my hero academia💀


I love your theory about why Cozy drained magic. However, the "human Cozy" is wearing a prominent button that appears to have her cuttie mark on it: a shinning star instead of a chess rook.


Fun lil detail I remember, Cozyglow refers to the Mane Six and Starlight as "Ponies" while talking/singing with Tirek and Chrysalis in the episode Frenemies, as if she herself wasn't a pony. Prolly nothing, but just a fun lil detail.


That’s a really interesting way to look at Cody’s motivations that makes complete sense! Kind of wish we could see a S5 finale-esk look at what a future where Cozy Glow succeeded would look like.


Remember the quote she said when confronting the Mane 6 and The Sisters.  "You ponies are so reliant to your magic, that you forgot to use your BRAINS!"


Maybe that human is actually a Sawtooth Waves fan, so she tried to mess with him by looking like Cozy Glow.

This was before the school so he wouldn’t have made a video yet!

AHAHAHA- I’AM SO HAPPY THIS GOT A HEART-

I saw tooth waves Fan would do Anything to be in one of his videos

@K.P does stuff Well now they do but not then

Doesn't Sawtooth use they/ them pronouns?

This is the reason I disowned you charle

I actually thought and no there's no way. Sawtooth channel's was made in 09/04/2013 and cozy glow first appeared in 06/02/2018, The human appeared in the first movie of equestria girls, which was released in 06/16/2013 there's no way that the human was trying to look like cozy glow to mess sawtooth's mind because she sawtooth wasn't a channel at the time that the human appeared and looked like cozy glow(also she couldn't see the future because humans dont normaly have magic)

@ravenpawsoup Heather What have you done?

I stan too many groups! Check em out in my about

Thatsss savage<br>Who would go that far?


I personally feel like Cozy glow is misunderstood as a villain maybe she has a tragic backstory or something also I’ve finally discovered a strange world called “The internet”

Hate to say, but not all villains need a sad backstory💀✋


Even if cozy succeeded, discord could've reversed it. On the season 9 premiere, Sombra was said to be dispersed into the ether, and discord brought him back. Cozy glow tried making equestrian magic disappear into the ether


Cozy may have that motive but no way she's from the human world


So about the hairstyle thing, I was rewatching the episodes where the Mane 6 first go to Starlight's village. The villager's hairstyles are obviously different than they would be if they had their cutie marks. Do you think in the human world they would have their original hairstyles (before the cutie-unmarking) or would they have the ones that they had post-unmarking? Speaking of, do you think they would also have the equal-sign cutie marks or their original cutie marks in the human world?


Here's a crazy theory:<br>What if that's not Cozyglow and that's just some random person who now is going to be on the run for the rest of her life from people who thinks that she's Cozyglow and are framing her for trying to takeover the world when really she was just sitting in the background eating a burger.

Sawtooth: Hmmm. The girl eating a burger looks pretty similar to Cozy Glow. Maybe she IS Cozy Glow🤔🤔🤔

The girl eating a burger: Excuse me! Are you saying that I am a pony villain trying to take over another world? I am just a normal and innocent girl eating a  burger in the background. Man. They’ll make anyone a villain these days.😡😡😡

Sawtooth: Oh. I’m sorry 😥😥😥

@Anagha M Somanchi I was making a joke :/

So, you are saying Sawtooth Waves just doxxed someone, and it may have been the wrong one?


if it was cozy glow in the human realm, i think she’d be kind because there wasn’t any magic (until little parts of equestrian magic came along) in the human realm. she’s be genuinely nice and not fake, perhaps unintentionally manipulative, but we know that she only got corrupted because of her lack of power. she likes having power over others, but in a world where (well, only in equestria) everyone is equal - well, we can obviously see that unicorns have all the power, that was probably why cozy glow wanted to be an alicorn in season 9, and gained all the magical artifacts.


Could you please do a video on what you think may of happened to Gallus Griffin's past. It is a question that has been bothering me for a while and I would really like to hear your opinion on what may of occurred. Also fantasic video (;


Also human Cozy Glow’s earing is red, the same colour as her cutie mark 😳


hey Sawtooth, i've always wondered what the Artifacts in the school were used for. Cozy used them to open a portal, which points to them having powerful magic, but we only know what the yak helmet and hippogriph amulet do, and that Grover used his crown to become king. we never find out what the rest do, and just why exactly a Changeling would ever need a "Talisman of Mirage"


Cozy Glow is one of my favorite mlp characters. She's not dumb like other villains, besides, she's not yet fully explained, so it's easy to rewrite her into a hero. (= Seriously, it is impossible to speak for sure about her personality, because she has no past. So we can only guess. And it’s quite easy to assume that she’s just playing her "evil" role because of the trait of pretense mentioned along with her character.


Love the thumbnail. The theory is certainly more plausible than some I've seen. I

It actually gives Cozy Glow a pretty compelling motivation if she was imitating Sunset.

Even more so if she felt a need to control magic, after it threatened her in her home dimension.


This is definitely one of your best theories. It explains Cozy Glow's motivation so much better than the show did.


Can we appreciate how much time does Sawtooth stay there trying to find things that turn into a theory?


"Human cozy glow"<br>Oh good god I don't wanna even think about what she would do,I think she would easily surpass the sirens—

"Human cozy glow"
Oh good god I don't wanna even think about what she would do,I think she would easily surpass the sirens—

Well since EQG is an alternative parallel universe, I think it would be the opposite

@kismnolurker OMG TWITTER AND INSTAGRAM AND EVEN MAKE HER OWN CHANNEL.

@kismnolurker :0 she can be a social media influencer 🤔

I mean, she can't surpass them if she doesn't have magic.

imagine the powers of social media in her hands tho

Human cozy would use knives and guns which is a scary thought

She would be a sassy talking baby throwing her milk bottle at adults demanding her diaper to be changed. This is the evil doom character just waiting to grow up...and become president. :/

@Ruth Engler that CAN be true. Good thinking


Can we just appreciate how much effort he puts into his theories


Truly amazing job. I really enjoyed this video. Keep up the good work SawTooth Waves. Have a wonderful day.


I love your theories keep it up and they are so helpful.
Also cozy glow might be from the human world we dont know but this theory explains so much about cozy glow past

I hope you see my comment


That actually gives a great explanation of why the season 8 finale happened the way it did. A reverse Sunset Shimmer playing a better Puppet Master game that would have been Checkmate if the magic of the world she tried to drain didn't have any additional hidden fail-safes.


It's definitely realistic that some earth ponies and pegasi would be jealous of unicorns. They're definitely more privileged than the other 2 races with their magic.

@Dog Tube i mean Cozy glow became an alicorn thanks to the bell but never became one like Flurry heart or the princess

@Nobôdy Nope. Cozy glow is proof that non unicorns can become alicorns.

Also unicorns are the only one who can become alicorns

@Dog Tube yeah no thats not what I mean we see cadence use her horn to make people fall in love. But how do you participate in being the literal love pony without that magic? I mean was she a major shipper and stalker then like went around like an infant trying to make people she ships fall in love? I just don’t see it🤣. (Also I don’t like how she uses her powers, what if those two pony’s already had another partner and they we’re just arguing friends or even brother and sister, its so risky and wrong to make people fall in love like that, which they have addressed before with the love potion and big mac thing but they forgot in Cadence’s design)

@Bo Braekevelt Believe it or not, earth ponies and pegasi can CAST SPELLS without artifacts or potions. You've seemed to miss a small detail in Magical Mystery Cure. When Twilight reads Star Swirl's unfinished spell, it successfully changed the destinies of the other 5. Look closely and you can see that Twilight did NOTHING with her horn. She only read the spell aloud. Such spells can be casted by the other 2 tribes as spells like the one we saw of Star Swirl does not require any unicorn magic. All you'd need to do is to read the spell aloud.

Heck, in the ENTIRE episode Twilight didn't really use her unicorn magic to do something specific. All she did was read the unfinished spell, made the other 5 realize who they are and completed the spell. So if Twilight was a pegasus or earth pony or if somepony else was in place of Twilight, despite someone from the other two races, what only matters is that you need to have a good understanding of friendship.

We can apply that to Cadence. Just like how Twilight became an alicorn without having to do something specific with unicorn magic. If somepony is destined to become an alicorn, the process of becoming one doesn't need unicorn magic. You only need to have an excellent understanding of what you're gonna be the princess of. As Cadence is the Princess of Love, she had an extraordinary understanding of love from the very beginning of her life, when she was a pegasus. Regardless of the tribe, all you would need to become an alicorn is an extraordinary understanding of something that keeps ponies together. For example, love and friendship which are already present and maybe future alicorns can be of unity, light etc.

@Book Thoughts <br>Well at least all three kind live together in Ponyville.

@Book Thoughts
Well at least all three kind live together in Ponyville.

@Elementianhero22 Trixie also learned magic from Starlight, and now she's is at season 1 Twilight level when she fought Ursa Minor, due to her teleportation of distant area in 9 season.

@Luv Bluey&Bingo Heeler Well, it might have been openly stated racism, but it existed.  Or ponies across Equestria wouldn't have been so easily divided by the Evil three.  They wouldn't have been swayed so easily to hate one another.

I never saw the unicorns being racist in Ponyville. The ponies are racist against non ponies in Ponyville, like how AJ didn’t ask the sheep but just shut the gate in their face.

All ponies have magic. Pegasi can’t farm.

Then the real question stays with: Cadence started out as a pegasus, how did she become a alicorn if that we’re true and how does one use the element of love with wings (as she probably hasn’t met shining yet then)-

@Ok ok But still, there is "racism" in equestria.  The pony are easily divided.  What's to say unicorns that are in good standing in the cities don't treat earth ponies and pegasi like peasants?  I mean, I would bet even after the fire of friendship there was still disunity.<br>And with Equestria the way it is in G5, I think Twilight did the best she could, but not all views of the other races were changed.  Technology advancing may have helped redivide Equestria, but it could only do that if there was still lingering racism.

@Book Thoughts Probably before the "fire of friendship" it would probably be banned in a lot of places. But people can still be jealous just not openly.

True but you have to also take into account that not all unicorns have powerful magical capabilities due to there cutiemark. Such as Rarity compared to Twilight. However, in the talk about cutie marks, unicorns can* possessed more variety of it such as sewing, baking, and even powerful magic (like twilight or starlight). While earth ponies can do the same just not the powerful magic. It’s also how Pegasus can do the same thing just no Magic but instead have flying cutie mark capabilities. That’s why I firm believer that cutie marks have some genetics to it.

True, but Starlight and Twilight are kind of exceptions to the rule. Twilight said herself that most unicorns have one specific skill they can do with their horns. For example, Shining Armor can produce that magical shield, Trixie has her stage magic, and Rarity? I dunno. Something to do with telekinesis and operating sewing machinery? Just a few samples.

However, Starlight's and Twilight's talents ARE magic, meaning they can do more than just one or two spells. Heck, Twilight is the Element of Magic in the Elements of Harmony, and that would explain why the Tree's projection takes the form of Twilight.

...I spend way too much time theorizing about this show. XD

@Jenkins ikr like starlight does, they can just float themselves.  They don't need wings to fly!

@Hailey Johnson And pegasus and earth ponies are probably treated like peasants by the more snobbish unicorns.

And the unicorns definitely act like it to. Aka canterlot is where plenty of unicorns with money and prestige live. Hell even rarity has a certain level of “prestige” about her. Even twilight too. Parents able to get her celestias magic school? Living in canterlot? Having a princess as your baby sitter? Yah unicorns are nobles

thats what i always thought! and there seems to be more unicorns than the other two in the show.


I’d like to say that I knew Cozy Glow was evil the moment she said “Golly”. And it helps my confidence to remember that.


fascinating.  I was starting to get worried that theories would run dry.  You keep surprising me.  Keep it up! :)


Incidentally if you apply your theory of projection, to her actions in "What Lies Beneath", there's a similar theme going on.

Specifically the idea that friendship isn't in their nature, because of their differences.

It would make sense that Cozy Glow has problems making friends, because of her inability to relate to others.

So this makes sense, as another projection tactic by her.

It also ties into her original motivation of not understanding friendship, when she needed help to figure out her extra credit work, in "Marks For Effort".


I really hope that if they do decide to bring back Cozy, Tirek, and Chryssy in g5 that they explore Cozy's origins as that was never brought up in g4, and we know for a fact that g5 is a continuation of sorts to g4 so it only makes since they give us closure with Cozy Glow's background


The fact that none of the main cast questioned where Cozy's parents are....

they did not question it because it fit their own motive to not know the answer.
Cozy clearly needed parents and didn't had any.
But it wasn't a friendship problem. It was a family problem. The problem of having no one.

I believe she wanted Magic gone, because it would make people suffer. Taking something they cared away, similar to what was taken away from her.

A child is not rational and talks in many different ways. Sometimes a kid break someone toy, not because he didn't like the toy or even the person for that matter but because he lost his own toy.

@smanna Every child/person deserves a parent. Yes, she's clearly evil. But she still deserves a family and/or parents.

@Amber Slahlize but we know who they are in that one ep so yeah-😅👍

They didn’t question that because Cozy Glow doesn’t even deserve parents

@EverWild Art Maybe all of this happened because she was jealous. Maybe she was jealous that most ponies have parents/guardians and she doesn’t? <br>It could be a possibility.

@EverWild Art Maybe all of this happened because she was jealous. Maybe she was jealous that most ponies have parents/guardians and she doesn’t?
It could be a possibility.

@Amber Slahlize Thats not the point, though they never asked, Scootaloo has guardians. She has someone looking after her. Also, aren't an only child is just called "only child"? Who called a siblingless child "a lonely child"? I called Cozy Glow a "lonely child" because she has no legal guardians or family. Not because she has no siblings. She literally is a child with nobody by her side. So, it's suspicious that no one bothered to ask about her guardians at all when she's technically a minor. They just simply send her to Tartarus and later turned her into stone. When a child caused problems, other people (or ponies in this case) would turned to their parents or guardians. They won't just immediately punished the child. But for some reason, they treat Cozy Glow like an adult. They punished her like one. That's why I questioned the mane 6's decision.

@EverWild Art This is never addressed in the show...you get one episode with her parents and that's it.
A lonely child just means you're the only child your parents had together - even with Rainbowdash looking after her like a big sister, she is still a lonely child by definition.

Well exactly, because no one asked about Scootaloo's parents. Ever.
They treat Scootaloo being on her own like it's normal.

@Amber Slahlize Scootaloo lived with her aunts, she's not a lonely child because she has someone looking after her. As for Cozy Glow, she tried to take over Equestria and stole their magic, does no one bother to know who her guardian might be? She's still a child after all. Do they not wonder how she learned to do all the crazy magic stuff? It's just so weird that they didn't question who her guardian or master might be

They never asked where Scootaloo's parents are either...so this is normal for them.


Here’s my theory about Cozy’s past: I think she was once a human with an intense love and fascination for all things mystical and magical, and after learning about the magic of the mirror somehow, she decided to see it for herself. After seeing the world of magic beyond the mirror, she grew to love Equestria (but also wanted to rule it). After she learned she was powerless and without magic even in this world, Cozy Glow eventually came up with plan to level the playing field for herself by ridding everyone else of theirs.


Sawtooth Waves, I've got a video request. This question has been going around my mind for ages! I'd love it you could try to work it out. So basically, are Discord, Chrysalis, Tirek, King Sombra, Thorax, etc in the human Equestria? I mean if Cozy Glow can be then there's a chance they can be too! Expecially, since Sombra is actually technically a pony.


Something I’ve found pretty weird is that one of the dazzlings have pretty much the exact same colors of starlight. Pretty sure it’s just a coincidence though.


I've always wondered about Cosy's backstory, but they never revealed it. This show does that a lot. I think she's the only villian without any hint to her backstory. Everyone else they're was some mention of it somewhere. <br>You could be right about her motivations though.

Her real name is Failed Abortion. She was a mistake like me.😿🔫

@nar g <b>Hope your kids get better parents</b>

@nar g *Hope your kids get better parents*

@MotherEater they weren't talking to you they replied to another comment I think

I think Cozy Glow is Bulk Biceps in disguise of a tiny child and it only shows when she's angry

@Sheng.tiktok  i mean she is evil in the movie

And you know that we are not evil anymore and we are friends with Sunset?

@nar g chill out Karen. I didn’t say kids where evil.


I have a thing in my mind that could get rid of the eye color problem lol. Since this is before the <b>castle</b> , she might have not thought about Equestria. Over time, though, she might've got corrupted by her own desire to rid Equestria of it's magic, leading to the change in eye color. I know it's a little out there, but I wanted to get this out of my head XD

Great job with this video. This is a very interesting theory. Speaking of theories, I have very interesting theory too. A theory about the student 6 going to space to help an alien planet. This would be awesome and I hope you make a video about this. Because space is the final frontier.🌙🌎☄💫✨🌟🪐🌌🚀🛰🛸🦄❤


There was another similar color palet earth pony on the ending of the end. That backgrounder should be that ponys countrepart. Or maybe that was Cozy Glow who hide her freckles with some makeup, change hairstyle and change clothing style to deguise. Or maybe its the reverse; if her countrepart isnt in the same place as the human Sunset Shimmer, she had to deguise.

I actually think you are on to something there with the disguise theory.
After all,we've seen how devious she can be and it's not uncommon for humans to wear makeup that hides freckles.
Humans unique trait is our brains,like how unicorns have their magic. Also it probably would be pretty difficult to put on makeup with hooves or wings.
Humans are also known for our ability to go big with plans and be devious manipulators of society.
Just look up social engineering for reference.
Also colored contacts Are a real thing people use even if they don't need glasses.


Speaking of doubles I have a theory about Octavia. In Octavia's 1st 2 appearances she is implied to live in Canterlot but from Slice of life onward is shown to live in Ponyville. The explanation is that the one in Ponyville isn't the real Octavia, she's a clone. Specifically think back to the 1st time Octavia appeared in Ponyville, which was when a mariachi pony was turned into her in Inspiration Manifestation. My theory is that that mariachi pony never got turned back and just decided to embrace this new identity as this mariachi pony does not appear again (as himself anyway). So that's my theory


I just love how smart Cozy is. She is such an evil mastermind.

Yeah she is insanely smart for a child. I feel that with more maturing she would turn out to be very successful.

@Purple Sweater Yes we do. We love singing.

@Purple Sweater Actually we are reformed and we are friends with Sunset, even Aria and Sonata don't fight with each other like typical couple

@Cretaceous Mesozoic Of course, but it never actually happened, that's why I was confused😂

@Cretaceous Mesozoic They're reformed? When?

@Cretaceous Mesozoic That didn't happen tho... or do you mean like when Discord or Starlight reformed?

@Echinacea Petals You'll be surprised how many mlp fans you'll find when you scan the comments under TTS videos (looking at pfp)

@Purple Sweater heyy found another Tangled fan! I have that same screenshot of Varian saved in my phone lol.

@Cretaceous Mesozoic Rapunzels tangled adventure (Tangled the series). It's way too underrated. Varian is the guy in my pfp

@Cretaceous Mesozoic Varian is a character from a tv show

I'm surprised she is this smart for a kid


Your line about the end of magic putting cozy glow on equal footing with alicorns was interesting to me. In the Sunny Starscout's Equestria, magic is hard to come by and the only remaining royals are a line of pegasus monarchs. Maybe that world is a universe where Cozy or someone else succeeded in draining magic from Equestria... mostly.


This is an interesting look at Cozy Glow, but what I wanna know about her motivation is "why?" Why even start this whole madness to begin with? I know she has her motive, but what's the reasoning behind that motive, what made her feel like she needed to do this? I guess the big thing I wanna know and something that's worth exploring in a future theory is why Cozy Glow is the way she is, what was her childhood like to make her the way she is now?


Honestly I think cozy being from the human realm is plausible but here’s something my brother said that sounds idk realistic

“What if that’s just Cozy Glow that got a therapist”

Honestly I love it
But my dude you make solid points so yours in more believable in the pony universe


I love his videos so much<br>I kinda wanna draw human sawtooth, but not sure where I'd share it to tag him

Nice theory.  But I don't think that human is cozy glow.  The eye colors are not just "slightly different."  They are completely different colors.  Cozy has a light red coloring where that human had a bronze-gold. That's the biggest thing going against this theory.  The eye colors do not match and I don't think magic used on the human students or anything could change her eye color for that long.  The hair color is similar, but I still think if it was Cozy that they still would have had her separate blues, the lighter and the dark.  And though I could see Cozy with that bun, there are just too many differences to ignore.  Anyway, wouldn't there have been something about a "Missing Student" after the second movie?  Like before the third one, I'm pretty sure Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna would have noticed Cozy had stopped coming to school and that gone missing in the human world.  Not saying that the MLP show staff were great with continuity, something I hope they'll fix in G5, but I'm pretty sure if these characters were somehow connected we would have seen something to clue us in in the third movie.


First of all, I LOVE YOU CHANNEL! Second of all, that does make sense because pony Cozyglow showed out of nowhere! If she really did go to the human world, I'm not completely sure because she does look like that girl but it doesn't give a ring. That girl's face doesn't remind me of Cozyglow. But Awesome theory!!


Okay, theory time
Maybe Cozy Glow is the one who caused magic to disappear from Equestria in G5.
So, her backstory is going to be developed in G5 rather than in G4, and that there’s much more to her than we thought.


Your are Genius . You think of EVERYTHING and see all the details carefully . I really like your channel ❤❤❤


I like the explanation for Cozy's motivation. But I think that Cozy being originally an human might be a stretch


My theory is that she did want magic and when she was human she thought if she crossed over I to equestria, she would have it but was disappointed when she found out she was a Pegasus. Maybe then she went into a whole “if I can’t have it nobody can”. Also just a <br>Fun fact: an actual quote from cozy glow is, “I just moved here to go to school but everything’s so new and different”

Best theory I have heard about Cozy so far!
This may sound weird but I do feel a bit sorry for her. I think that deep down she is not a happy being.
She has problems making real connections and craves for power in order to fill a gap inside she might not have if she was able to connect, to recieve and give love.
If she is that human from the human world than the following is untrue but if not she could be an actual adult pony trapped inside a kids body due to a disease or curse.
Which would mean she cannot find friends her actual age, or love her actual age and is pretty much doomed to be alone. Power might be welcomed to fill the inner gap that would create and it also would explain why she is so unempathetic, having no problem to toy with everyone. Maybe I am overthinking this, but who knows.


Oh my gosh- you are amazing at doing theory's i swear i could have never found that out

˜”*°• 𝕐𝕠𝕦𝕣𝕃𝕠𝕔𝕒𝕝𝕋𝕖𝕒𝕊𝕡𝕚𝕝𝕝𝕖𝕣•°*”˜


But the human “Cozy Glow” doesn’t have freckles. That’s the one thing that makes me disagree with this theory...

I think why Cozy Glow wanted to drain equestria of all magic is because she figured out that Friendship is Magic. Drained by tirek, the only way that the mane six got their magic back in the Season 4 finale using the power of friendship. Ridding the world of magic makes it so that everyone is magicless, but with the mane six gone, she runs a SCHOOL of friendship.

Friendship is magic, and magic is power. So cozy glow would thereby have the most friends in all of equestria making her the most powerful (?)

It doesn't matter if Cozy doesn't have freckles. Princess Twilight doesn't have glasses when her human counterpart does.

@Shonade Malik But he only said that the eye colors were slightly different.  However, they are not even in range of being the same color.  Cozy's eyes are red and the similar looking human has bronzy-yellow.
And if Cozy was this girl, wouldn't we have heard something about a Missing Student sometime after the end of the second movie?  Not saying that the writers of the show and Equestria Girls were great with continuity but if these characters were supposed to be connected, I bet we would have seen something by now.

besides the human and the real cozy glow dont have same eye colour either

This amazing theory needs more replies and likes.

(this is about the freckles) Cozy could have gotten freckles when she went to equestria, it is a thing to get freckles later on in life just FYI

This made me think of something

What if the lack of friendship in gen 5 is the reason why there is no magic


Are...you...shitting me?<br>This is beautiful. You need more support take my sub. I never noticed that before.

Are...you...shitting me?
This is beautiful. You need more support take my sub. I never noticed that before.


Well, we know the G5 continues the history of the G4 and Equestria has lost its magic. So maybe Cozy Glow had a plan B. Discord, for example, in the form of a statue, was held only by magic, but did not die. Cozy's other plan probably succeeded, the magic disappeared from Equestria, so her statue form also disappeared, and because she didn't have magical opponents, she used her abilities to turn the ponies against each other and got the power she wanted.


Hmmm good point sawtooth!! Also i REALLY want you to find this out for me because it has just been going on and on in my head... About sugar bell amd sweety bell it might be nothing but who knows? Also in the other video of the princess of love from the pony tail, well.... I want you to watch the episode where chrysalis hypnotized shining armor and what happened to cadence and what she did...😉👍 think about it sawtooth!😁👍


Hmm, interesting. What if Cozy Glow from the human world went into equestria expecting to be a magic type (unicorn), but was disappointed when she discovered all the could do is fly (as a pegasus). That would push further her motive to rid equestria of magic. Not too far, but i think it's worth noting. idk.


I love absolutely everything about this theory expect for the fact that that particular human doesn’t have the same “cutie mark” as Cozy... and she’s not Starlight Glimmer so she can’t exactly change it.

True but I saw many students wearing that star pin in the background

I think her cutie mark was on her ears

I forget what itz called

Not all humans where there cutie mark on them


Woah, but I really like the close look at her motives and reason for doing what she did


Sawtooth, completely unrelated, but I have a question. Have we actually met Sunset Shimmer's human counter-part? I mean, she is originally a pony... right?


How can you make every theory better than the last one? You make me go and buy pop corn every time I notice that you have uploaded a new video😂


Although this theory does make a LOT of sense, we do not unfortunately have any concrete evidence. Also, can I say that I love how you keep making theories about this despite the show ending?


As always that's an interesting theory Sawtooth, if Cozy Glow was from the EQG world that certainly would explain a few things, especially things like why she didn't seem to have any parents in the pony world and what not.

@Molly Sandera: but does that mean no one did any background checks on Cozy? Surely there would’ve been some version of a record on her, even if nothing happened, that would’ve suggested she was always a part of the world. And if there wasn’t, Twilight should’ve seen that something was up with Cozy from the very start.

@Shadow Spector there were a fair amount of people who were only on the human world and not on pony world, and vice versa, so she could easily not be reprehended like this

It would make sense except for the fact that the EG universe and the mlp universe have a ton of similarities. Seeing how the cmc are still friends and the Mane 6 all knew eachother, you’d think that their parents are the same in both universes. So if Cozy came to the mlp world, she would still have some sort of identity there too, such as having a family of sorts. With her name broadcasted through all of Equestria, there would be no way that her family counterparts wouldn’t know about her and come looking for her. Unless she was someone who came from nothing, in which case, no one would know about her in the pony world if she actually was originally from the pony world to begin with.

Indeed.
For the fact that the time when she first appeared on season 8 with no parents or a guardian just tells me she probably was never born in the pony world.
So if she's from the EQG's world and had parents there, then I'm pretty sure people she may had knew there would worry much about where she's at now.


Ever since I saw a cozy glow I've been thinking a lot about what her backstory is so when I saw this video I was like finally!! Some answers so thanks for this video you've answered my prayers úvù


I agree on the part of "Cozy Glow trying to level the play field", not so much on the "Cozy Glow was originally from the human world" part.


I think that the overall idea on what you said on the reason of Cozy Glow wanting to take magic and power is a really good reason idea and reason. Though I disagree with the human theory, I simply think that it was just a coincidence in the color pallet. I think that Cozy Glow might be jealous of unicorn’s magic, since she’s a Pegasus. We have seen that Pegasi have magic, but someone like Cozy Glow would easily overlook that aspect of Pegasi. So maybe her jealousy caused her to become the way she is.


Supporting projection, "Alicorns really do have all the fun!", implying she wanted magic for herself. But if she couldn't have it, no one could, so she tried to rid Equestria of all magic. I also think she tried to dispel magic as a way to cause chaos and gain a manipulative advantage. We see that she is best able to use ponies when they are panicked and disorganized (we saw a lot of this especially in Season 9, when she specifically created chaos among the pegasi to create disharmony). With all the magic gone, people would no longer look to Luna and Celestia to be their rulers (because they couldn't protect them from the spell plague), and Twilight and the Mane Six would be locked away in Tartarus. With Cadence busy ruling the Crystal Empire, there would be no one left to govern the rest of Equestria. Enter Cozy Glow. She has demonstrated effective leadership and organization at the school level and rallied the entire student body (most likely more than a hundred ponies) to her side. She's good at creating common enemies that help unify her followers and cement their devotion to her. It wouldn't be too big of a stretch to say she could unify Canterlot against the princesses and seize control in a coup. I think that was her biggest motivation. Not jealousy, control.
