@EpicLuna123 They threw in stuff specifically for us, like the opening theme, several cameos and memes, and Derpy in the credits. Hasbro initially intended MLP for little girls, which is why they wouldn't let Lauren Faust make it something like Sailor Moon or Winx Club, or say Applejack's parents were dead, but Lauren wanted it appealing to all audiences, and, of course, we all know the rest. Stuff they did in Season 3 was trying to do what they thought we wanted them to based on fanfics and fanart, which was really all they had to go by to keep up its style since Lauren Faust is no longer working on it. They could have departed from the full style altogether, without her they no longer have to keep it but they want to.

@Flame Bronies have already left the fandom when Twilight became an alicorn. Would any who stayed after that transformation leave if it happened with the other five?

@Pinklady What did the Winx Club fans rage about? (Let me guess, transformations the Winx achieved in Season 3 and beyond, such as Enchantix, after their original forms all throughout the first two seasons)
