I realized that nobody else had made this stamp yet, so I did. Deal with it.
Anyway, you heard me: Princess Cadence from MLP is an overrated Mary-sue, and I'm the only one who seems to think that. Why do I believe that, you may ask? Well, I'll tell you: First of all, they pull in a character who's an alicorn. We've never heard of her before, yet they pull in this third alicorn. Before this we had all believed that there were only two of those, but suddenly out of nowhere, there's a third one. What the hell? Then we discover that she's really nice, a great babysitter, and basically "perfect." Sounds like a bad OC to me, and definitely like a Mary-sue. Then on top of that, instead of controlling the sun or the moon, we discover that she controls love. Okay, the Mary-sue-ness levels are rising! And meanwhile, I'm still trying to figure out where the hell she came from in the first place. Is she, like, Celestia's daughter or something? They leave it unexplained for the entire two episodes. And she's probably never going to appear again on the show, leaving her as undeveloped as she is.
So anyway, basically all I'm saying is that I don't like Cadence and I don't understand why nobody else feels the same way I do on the subject.
Yes, I know I'm a hater so I A. shouldn't be making a stamp like this and B. shouldn't know so much on the subject. But I have answers for both of the two. A. I saw it hadn't been done by any fans of the show, so I decided to do it. B. Having friends who are bronies helps a lot.
Actually, it explained that she was Celestia's adopted niece the first time she appeared. And (if you want to know, but you probably won't give a heck) the real Candence (you know what I'm talking about if you've seen Canterlot wedding) only appeared in A Canterlot wedding, and both parts of The Crystal Empire. But why didn't they introduce her at the START of the the show, we will never know.
There's really nothing that ever says that anywhere in canon.
Also, I posted this on July 17, 2012. When did said episodes (Crystal Empire, Equestria Games, and Twilicorn episode) air? After the date I posted this. So next time, please check stuff like that before commenting.
I agree, even though I can't stand MLP. Something tells me that she's probably just for merchandise purposes…probably the fact that she's a pink princess with almost zero flaws whatsoever. X____x
The only problem I have with this is that somewhere in one of the Canterlot Wedding halves, I'm pretty sure they've informed us of Cadence being Celestia's niece.

And I agree, if you're going to create a character, at least create one who isn't a complete Sue.
