Yeah because Lauren Faust intended it to be more like Sailor Moon but Hasbro wouldn't allow it, they wanted it to be a prissy little girl show. Fortunately Lauren and other writers were able to put enough in there to still make it appealing to earn its "all-audience" status

Also, aside from Celestia, Fluttershy, and Twilight, the ponies don't seem nearly as forgiving as, say, the protagonists of Once Upon A Time

In the comics, I was hoping for Sombra's redemption after his Fiendship is Magic arc. In the show, The Cutie Remark gives more detail to how much of a dark tyrant and dictator he is, to the point that I thought the Sombra future would get that episode banned from the Treehouse channel. Sombra of the show and Chrysalis of the comics are about equal, the most evil and murderous villain in their respective series. Ironic in that Sombra is the only main villain in the show confirmed to be dead, while Chrysalis is the only main villain of the comics to neither die, reform, or end up imprisoned
