* Actually it's said to be 6 moons after the first film, not months so maybe 5 moons could equal just a couple or so months in human world time.

Sunset's wearing a slightly different shirt, you can tell by the neck, in the final battle. Why? She wasn't planning on participating and it's so similar there's no reason for her change.

** Look closely at the sirens' true forms, they're not wearing pendants, the gems are a part of their bodies.


Added DiffLines:

** There's also no indication that they came through that portal to begin with, in the flashback Starswirl created the portal himself instead of using the mirror, so they probably don't even know it exists.

** As long as the kids go to the same school why would it even be a problem? They'd just all go to school together in the morning. Especially if they're working on a group project for school, which they were.


Added DiffLines:

** Without their pendants it's possible that assuming their true forms could kill them.

** To all of the above: What about ''after'' the Battle of the Bands, when the Dazzlings lost their amulets and ability to sing? If there was any reason to stay beforehand, there definitely won't be now that they have no magic there and everyone knows they're evil.

** Sunset left Equestria of her own free will so maybe they just assumed she'd prefer to stay in the human world. Or it could be more pragmatic on Twilight's part - there is the possibility in her mind that Sunset's redemption isn't genuine and bringing her back to Equestria could cause her to start getting back to her old tricks. Perhaps Twilight wanted Sunset to stay in the human world for the next three years until the portal opens up again - and then she'd offer the chance to come back to Equestria.



** And if the Sirens are condemned to starving to death - they did spend years causing countless wars and chaos across Equestria. [[PayEvilUntoEvil Seems like a karmic punishment]].



* The Dazzlings clearly despise being in the human world and don't see any perks from being there other than brainwashing people with their songs, giving them even less of a reason to stick around than Sunset. So why is it that they never attempt to go through the portal after Princess Twilight reactivates it? [[/folder]]

** It's only at the start that they hate the human world - because their magic is weaker. Once they're able to tap into the Equestrian Magic at the school, they see the potential to really take over the world. Taking over the human world is more attractive than going back to Equestria, because there are several other magical beings there who would be more than happy to challenge them.
** Or more simply they didn't realise that Twilight had opened the portal and that they could go back to Equestria. When they get to the school, they sense the magic there but the portal isn't open. By the time Twilight arrives, they have no reason to believe the portal is open now, and they're focused on their mission to drain the Humane Six's magic.
** And maybe they might have gone back to Equestria, once they'd absorbed the magic in the human world for some extra firepower.

** Maybe Twilight did something when she was programming the machine. If she thought she'd have to fight the sirens as soon as she got there, maybe she accounted for making sure she wasn't dressed impractically when she came through.


Added DiffLines:

** The Dazzlings do MindRape Celestia and Luna pretty quickly, so that explains why they have no complaints about the clothes.


Added DiffLines:

** "Welcome To The Show" is said to be the Sirens bringing the big guns out - so we can assume the magic creates a harmonised effect. It's the only time the Sirens are able to pony up, so there's clearly more magic being used than before.


Added DiffLines:

** Perhaps Sunset didn't tell them because she was still feeling too guilty. She might have felt that she didn't deserve to be in the band. She sees herself as deserving of how the school treats her - which is why she never complains when her friends are InnocentlyInsensitive. She sees all of that treatment as punishment for her crimes, and not allowing herself to join the band is another way of punishing herself.


Added DiffLines:

** Hasn't it been a few months since the Fall Formal? In that time, the school has gotten used to Sunset hanging with the girls.

** And if the magic only appears whenever the Rainbooms play, it surfaces in areas where they're practicing. That means it's at the girls' houses - as in a different place each time. The Sirens were able to track it to the school because the musical showcase gave the Rainbooms a chance to practice there regularly - so the Sirens could trace a pattern.


Added DiffLines:

** Season 7's finale shows a flashback to Star Swirl banishing the Sirens. Turns out he still needed help from the Pillars of Equestria to do so. So yes the Sirens are indeed that strong.


Added DiffLines:

** If you want to stretch it, the sleepover might be on a Friday night, and the next day they go to school it's just to the party for the Battle of the Bands. Not unreasonable to think it might be on a Saturday and the entire contest runs over the weekend. Or else the parents let them all crash at Pinkie's because they said they want to get some extra practice in before the contest.
