lol, I made this months ago in a thread where someone edited Glimmer from this pic and I couldn’t resist adding in Sunset.

From what I’ve seen the hate for each is pretty even. Post anything involving Sunset in /mlp/ and you’ll have bunch of people screaming “not canon” or “Sunshit” or something of the like that. Of course Starlight gets hate too, mostly from people who think she’s an embodiment of everything that went wrong with the show. I’m just numb to all of it at this point.
The problem with stuff like this is that youre putting a chatacter in unfamiliar environment. Sunset was not written nor made to be a FiM chatacter thus saying it would be better or not is major speculation with little grounding in reality.
@Derpyfan
Certainly doesn’t feel like it sometimes… Especially, given the upvote/downvote ratio in the above image.
Plus, you ever notice Sunset-fans insult Starlight, much more here then Starlight-fans insult Sunset? Hate to sound biased, but it’s very noticeable, especially in earlier Starlight pics.
It honestly makes me lose respect for Sunset/EqG’s fanbase. If somebody was editing Starlight in screencaps to replace Sunset, everyone would be angry. (Heck everyone got angry over Starlight just making a one-shot appearance in EqG. Said complaints being mostly stuff like, “This is Sunset’s show! Not Starlight’s!” Meanwhile, those same people want Sunset to replace Starlight in the Pony show. Not biased at all!)
In regards to a comment below bashing S8, I think I’m enjoying this season more then EqGirls.
I thInk I’m going to leave the thread, as I don’t wanna be harassed by Sunset/EqG fans, like I have before, (nothing against the nicer ones) which is why I’m so sick of the “Sunset/Starlight” drama, nor do I want to start another pointless “Sunset/Starlight is better!” argument.
@Background Pony #E1CE
Sunset’s colors (red/orange) are no more different from Applejack’s colors (orange) than Starlight’s (purple/pink) are from Twilight’s (purple). Heck, I’d say she’s closer, given that Starlight is almost Cadance’s color.
I can respect that. Every one has there own limits of tolerance.
To be honest, both.
The comments or just the drama in general?
It’s about even on /MLP/
This ain’t /MLP/

Starlight thought Twilight was lying, so she still didn’t think was dooming any timelines.
Which is why right after she’s told that what she’s doing will destroy Equestria does she try to destroy the only means to fix it.

@Fwelin
And here we go.
She wasn’t trying to, and intent is important.
Neither of them were good ponies before their reformation.
@Psyga315
Among at least half a dozen more things…
Destroyed Equestria twenty times because her cult got disbanded.
It probably wont happen. Remember that pony twi wasnt a thing in FG due to not wanting two twilight’s on screen.

Just be glad it’s only the minority.
It’s actually making me prefer Starlight over Sunset.
Sunset’s colors (red/orange) are no more different from Applejack’s colors (orange) than Starlight’s (purple/pink) are from Twilight’s (purple). Heck, I’d say she’s closer, given that Starlight is almost Cadance’s color.
Sunset has red/orange(pony)/yellow(EG).
We already have AJ and Fluttershy for yellow/orange
Apple Bloom too if you count her as a main character
