I can’t remember the last time I saw a character “earn” a redemption or a happy ending.Oh wait! Avatar: The Last Airbender. While I’m sure the show has flaws (that I never looked for) Prince Zuko took an agonizingly long time to do a lot of soul searching, try to change for the better, and join the “good guys” team. Even then they regarded him with suspicion until he took each of them on a side quest to prove he isn’t a jerk, and to help with with stuff that was bothering them. Except for Toph.After all of that, he became a much more likeable person by the end of the series.And that’s the only time I remember a redemption taking more than a few episodes or movies to get all the way though it D:Man, it sure would have been nice if we could have gotten something like that for MLP characters trying to turn over a new leaf.
