Before we start, we want to make one thing very clear. '''This article is not to diminish the work done by any creator. It's merely done for fun to poke out some plot holes. In addition, much of the inconsistencies discovered only happened due to how huge the show is, with many great writers simply forgetting small details we nerds obsess over. Don't worry, we all love you guys!'''
==''Friendship is Magic'' continuity==
==={{CAR|FIM|Shadow Play}}===
Hoo boy, this one did a lot.
*According to ''[[The Journal of the Two Sisters (real world)|The Journal of the Two Sisters'', [[Equestria]]'s [[Tree of Harmony]] predates {{FIM|Princess Celestia}} and {{FIM|Princess Luna}}'s reign and the construction of the [[Castle of Two Sisters]]. However, this two-parter indicates that the seed for the Tree of Harmony was not even planted until Celestia and Luna had reigned for some time. The Castle of Two Sisters is also seen being attacked by [[Stygian]]/the [[Pony of Shadows]], with his threat being the reason for the seed's planting in the first place.
*Speaking of the Pony of Shadows, "[[Castle Mane-ia]]" indicated that the Pony of Shadows was a being born from remnants of [[Nightmare Moon]]'s dark magic. A shadowy, hooded figure is also depicted at the conclusion of the episode as an apparent revelation of the phantom being a reality. The two-parter, meanwhile, instead depicts the Pony of Shadows as an actual pony fused with the [[Darkness]], an evil force predating Nightmare Moon who was also banished from Equestria before her advent. Admittedly this one is a bit less of a continuity breaker, as the first story's information on the Pony of Shadows was actually a scary story told by Applejack and thus of dubious veracity. Moreover, {{FIM|Zecora|seemingly}} {{FIM|Trixie Lulamoon|or}} {{FIM|Lord Tirek|actually}} [[King Sombra|ominous]] [[Radiant Hope|hooded]] [[Shadow Lock|figures]] [[Tempest Shadow|are]] something of a commonality in Equestria.
==''Equestria Girls'' continuity==
Line 26 ⟶ 32:
* {{C|FIM|11}} indirectly revealed that Twilight was born in the late 1970s to early 1980s, which would make her in her 30s to 40s by the time ''Friendship is Magic'' happened, once again assuming it takes place in a year equivalency, despite ''[[My Little Pony: 20/20]]'' revealing Twilight would be in her early to mid 20s.
===The Dazzlings===
*''[[Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks]]'' and {{C|FIE|3|''Sirens''}} both depict [[Adagio Dazzle]], [[Aria Blaze]], and [[Sonata Dusk]] as being banished from [[Equestria]] by the solo efforts of {{FIM|Starswirl the Bearded}}. The latter work expands on this by having the three Sirens and the unicorn wizard face off in a Canterlot music competition, resulting in the invention of several musical genres in the process. However, both "[[Shadow Play]]" and ''[[Legends of Magic]]'' instead depict the Sirens attacking [[Stygian's village]]. They are then confronted and exiled by the [[Pillars of Old Equestria]], instead of by Starswirl alone.
