Line 142 ⟶ 147:
After being shown kindness by {{FIM|Twilight Sparkle}} and acceptance by the girls she tormented the most, Sunset grew into a gentler, kinder and loving young woman who developed many genuine friendships with the people she used to bully. Embracing her artistic and geeky side in the process, Sunset started a secret art career as [[Flanksy]], drew her own comic books and started an online streaming channel dedicated to video games.
Sunset was bisexual, though her only known romance was with {{EQG|Flash Sentry}}, a gentle, brave and friendly, if somewhat vain, young man though the two broke up before Twilight journeyed into their world, presumably due to her awful behavior and his kindness. In addition, her friend and classmate, [[Sandalwood]], once admitted to having a crush on her, but it was completely one-sided.
Though Sunset loved all of her friends dearly, she seemed to hold Princess Twilight in higher esteem, looking at her as both a close friend, and as a mentor who she often went to for advice on difficult or magical situations.

==History==
===Life in Equestria===
Sunset Shimmer was born in [[Canterlot]], [[Equestria]] as a daughter in the [[Shimmer family]]. Much of her early life was unclear, but she ddn't have a good relationship with her parents, possibly being one of the reasons why she ended up so rotten and was perfectly okay with leaving her life in the realm without ever looking back.<ref name = "FALL">"[[The Fall of Sunset Shimmer]]"</ref> While studying with Celestia, and of course after, she considered herself to be extremely intelligent, so much so that she thought Twilight was an idiot in comparison.<ref name = "EQG">''[[My Little Pony: Equestria Girls]]''</ref>
===Devil of Canterlot High===

==Behind the scenes==
Sunset Shimmer is, for all intents and purposes, the main character of the ''[[Equestria Girls]]'' brand, with a large portion of major storylines being tied to Sunset Shimmer in some way, and with her character arc being the driving force of the first two films, and part of the fourth. [[Rebecca Shoichet]] provides the English dub voice for Sunset.
===Design and nomanclature===
===Sexuality===
Sunset Shimmer was said bisexual by [[Katrina Hadley]], but she left it open to interpretation ".<ref group = "web">{{cite web |url=https://twitter.com/isitlunchyet_t/status/1176924351469195265 |title= of course it can I dont get in the way of sailing ships |last=Hadley |first=Katrina |date=9/25/2019 |website=Twitter |publisher= |accessdate=9/25/2019 |quote=}}</ref> This makes her the third ''Equestria Girls'' character to be the third Equesria Girls character left up to viewers interpretation to be , with the previous two being {{EQG|Applejack}} and {{EQG|Rarity}}, who were revealed to be bisexual in older versions of ''Rollercoaster of Friendship'' and the fifth ''My Little Pony'' character after {{FIM|Aunt Lofty}} and {{FIM|Aunt Holiday}}, seventh if one counts their {{IDW|Aunt Lofty|IDW}} {{IDW|Aunt Holiday|counterparts}} as other characters.

In he comic story, ''[[Happy Holidays]]'', Sunset Shimmer mentions her parents in passing, without a kind word to say about them. In a [[2019]] [[twitter]] Q&A, [[Big Jim]] said that, in his opinion, Sunset Shimmer is not related to [[Sunburst]], but fans can decide. For the sake of simplifying organization on the wiki, we take instances of statements akin to this as "possibly canon, possibly not".<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.equestriadaily.com/2019/10/big-jims-q-on-friendship-is-magic.html |title= Big Jim's Q&A On the Friendship is Magic Finale (Also Confirming AJ's Parents Died) |last= |first= |date=10/23/2019 |website=Equestria Daily |publisher= |accessdate=10/23/2019 |quote=}}</ref>
