A lot of charisma? She just annoying, boring, sadistic, power-hungry bug who acts like little bully. Her design is pretty average. Other villains got by far more unique look. She also pretty pathetic, compared to other villains, considering that she need army/Shining Armour love/Grogar bell to be problem to the heroes. Without it, she would get her ass kicked by Trixie. Nightmare Moon, Sombra, Discord, Shadow Pony, all is by far more cool, really charismatic and pretty powerful being really dangerous for heroes.

Sorry,man but Chrysalis was supposed to be Disney type villainess from the start. She’s always was bland pure evil queen. Got it.

If I rob someone in the street, and his wallet contains $100, then I have taken $100. If I ask him nicely and he agrees for some reason, it’s still $100. Energy does not suddenly become more or less based on the intentions behind it. Unless the “Power of Love” is just magically different, which is recycling tired old tropes in favour of accepting that sometimes, evil deeds are committed in pursuit of a greater good. Which makes them all the more dangerous.
Chrysalis was first established as having an understandable goal, but deplorable methods. Stopping her plans did not solve the need that drove her to attack Canterlot. Better writing would acknowledge that the solution to her race is not solved with some feelgood message about the infinite power of what makes us feel better. Because FIM was best when it recognised that sometimes, friendship is not easy, and you must make hard choices.

Cleary you don’t understand that when you steal it/forcibly take it away, there is less of it. But when it is freely given, there is infinitely more.

They missed a chance to develop a more nuanced villain as well as a more morally ambiguous species. It doesn’t help that Chrysalis had a lot of charisma and an iconic design, while her replacement was incredibly milquetoast.
Mind you, I really liked Occelus. It’s a pity she and Chrysalis never interacted.

I had hoped Chrysalis would have schooled Starlight on the Law of Thermodynamics, and how passing around used love means each changeling takes a little to sustain themselves, giving back less each time until starvation sets in. Hence, why changelings must take from other creatures who are capable of adding new love. That way, Bug Momma wouldn’t have been overthrown, and we’d be spared the rainbow vomit changedlings.
