Sprout had way more potential than Misty
>Colorwise, foils the m5
>Is lazy, unlike Zipp
>Insecure, unlike Pipp
>Not admired, like Hitch
>Doesn't stand up for his own ideals, unlike Sunny
>Isn't creative like Izzy
But no, we have to get the DEI pony instead that just sobs all the time and doesn't really add anything to the group's dynamic, doesn't earn anything she gets, and is there probably because one of the producers of g5 is self-inserting as Misty or using her as wish fulfilment.
Misty scratches off all the checkmarks for lazy girl's wish fulfilment and changeling fantasies
>Has a mean stepmom, but has a real dad that loves her. This father is dating a queen so when they get married she'll be a princess
>Has shown 0 interest in reading or anything academic, all she's done is carry out Opaline's orders. Is somehow this incredible magical prodigy that Alicorn heaven has chosen, making her the biggest snowflake unicorn of g5
>Had immediate, unconditional love from everyone that she meets besides Opaline who we're supposed to hate anyway. Even when she kidnaps a dragon and is an accessory to attempted murder, even when she gets her friends imprisoned for her own selfish desires, everyone is fine with her and they all still love her
Also, I just realized something. Misty's butterfly cutiemark is supposed to represent transformation or potential. That's just a shitty copying of Sprout's cutiemark, right? I get the impression that Sprout's cutiemark was that he had the potential to grow and develop. And Misty's is that she can transform herself.

He should have been the sixth cast member. He completes the group dynamics.
