** One exclusive to the novelization, but the Shadowbolts -- yes, all of them -- get borderline AdaptedOut, only appearing '''once''', when they meet Rarity at the mall. Worse yet is that they aren't even mentioned beyond Rarity telling her friends that the Crystal Prep girls are also competing.
** A perfectly good character design, maybe, but it might be somewhat disappointing for some that there isn't a MythologyGag to the Mane-iac's human doll when Sunset dresses as her, which is [[CostumePorn surprisingly elaborate]] (or unsurprisingly, as it ''was'' one of the SDCC 2015 ''MLP'' exclusives) and has some nice differences from her Pony counterpart.

** For "Dance Magic," the special centers on the Shadowbolts and the Rainbooms competing to win a music video contest, and ultimately coming together to do a joint project so they can all win. The focus of the short is on Rarity, who has the idea for the Rainbooms to enter the contest and finds her idea stolen by the Shadowbolts before she brings the two groups together. However, it could easily be argued that a much stronger story could have been made from putting Twilight in the spotlight, since she actually went to Crystal Prep and thus it's natural she would be the one to bring the two rival teams together as friends. As-is, Twilight's participation in the special is basically to just take Rarity to Crystal Prep since she doesn't know how to get there.

This isn't helped by the fact that when Canter Zoom states that she's too young to play the role and has no acting experience, Juniper acknowledges this with a meek "I know".
