Talk:The Cutie Re-Mark - Part 2/@comment-4905253-20151201063643/@comment-1746153-20151201084053

I might have a general dislike towards quick redemptions because of Naruto. It happened so often there that fans even came up with a special term for it. And mind you, I have nothing against redemptions in general, as long as they are written properly.

As for the episode showing enough, maybe in terms of storytelling, yes, but not in terms of psychology. Starlight just flipped to the "good" side, after years and years of living the way she did, with her firm beliefs in equality. I mean, her realization that her actions are destructive and stopping because of that is understandable. But her quick acceptance of friendship after living with the trauma induced by it for many years? That's less realistic.
