* NamesTheSame: "Dance Magic" shouldn't be confused with [[Film/{{Labyrinth}} Magic Dance]]. It doesn't help that the latter song is sometimes mistakenly called "Dance Magic Dance".

* FanNickname: Juniper Montage's corrupted form is often called "Juniper Monstar" by the fandom.

** It's more a problem with what was delivered than a production error but every domestic release after the televised version of "Mirror Magic" (DVD, [=iTunes=], and Netflix) has [[https://derpibooru.org/1551788 diluted colors]]. This only affects "Mirror Magic" for some reason.

** "Mirror Magic" [[https://twitter.com/ishiH3Art/status/1063919925603971073 was envisioned]] to [[SimultaneousArcs take place during]] the events of ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyTheMovie2017'', [[WrittenInAbsence explaining Starlight Glimmer's absence in the latter]]. It seems this was never implemented as the works can't be reconciled without ContinuitySnarl.[[note]]Starlight cameos in the movie, which makes it improbable for her to have made it back before the invasion which she would have mentioned otherwise. Starlight says Twilight Sparkle and friends were away to solve a friendship problem while in the movie has them helping with the Friendship Festival. Twilight doesn't mention the invasion once they contacted her. "Mirror Magic" takes place before ''[[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsForgottenFriendship Forgotten Friendship]]'' which takes place before the movie since it used the old throne room design.[[/note]]

* MarthDebutedInSmashBros: The Japanese dub of the [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic main series]] ended with season 2 while the Japanese dub of ''Equestria Girls'' is still ongoing. The result is that Starlight Glimmer, who was introduced in season 5, made her Japanese debut in ''Mirror Magic'' instead.

* Starting with the "Dance Magic" TV Special, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOG2nuB3LKs&t=44m36s Daniel Ingram is no longer the composer and songwriter]] for the ''Equestria Girls'' franchise, [[https://twitter.com/isitlunchyet_t/status/911446060882583552 with his last song being "Good Vibes"]]. The songs featured in the Summertime Shorts were written and composed by Mason Rather ("Shake Things Up" and "Coinky-Dink World"), John Boyd ("Mad Twience" and "Monday Blues"), Bill Sherman ("Get the Show on the Road", music) and Chris Jackson ("Get the Show on the Road", lyrics).

** "Dance Magic" [[https://twitter.com/ishiH3Art/status/878753793411661824 was written and produced]] before ''[[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsLegendOfEverfree Legend of Everfree]]'', and would have been about the girls [[https://twitter.com/isitlunchyet_t/status/878759031313096704 raising funds to attend camp]]. It was apparently a fairly last-minute decision to have it take place after the film, but only the dialog needed to be modified. This explains why the titular song debuted on the ''Friendship Games'' soundtrack, why Twilight's "casual clothes" design was first seen as insert art on a TieInNovel, and why the girls didn't have their magic necklaces during the special (although this gets handwaved in "Movie" as the girls not thinking/forgetting to wear them at all times). A remnant of this seems to have made its way into the novelization: Sugarcoat claims it's only been three weeks since the Friendship Games, instead of a few months.

* {{Jossed}}: The idea of Sunset being homeless or squatting in a run-down building has turned up in a number of fanfics, but the Summertime Short "Monday Blues" establishes that she currently lives in a loft apartment.

** The specials were originally stated to debut on Netflix in Summer 2017, but this never came to be -- the specials debuted on Discovery Family, going straight-to-TV. As of September 2017, the specials are still unavailable in Netflix.

* Since the TV Special "Dance Magic", [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOG2nuB3LKs&t=44m36s Daniel Ingram is no longer the composer and songwriter]] for the ''Equestria Girls'' franchise, [[https://twitter.com/isitlunchyet_t/status/911446060882583552 with his last song being "Good Vibes"]]. The songs featured in the Summertime Shorts were written by new songwriters Mason Rather ("Shake Things Up" and "Coinky-Dink World") and John Boyd ("Mad Twience" and "Monday Blues").
* The novelization is the first of the books to use the new 2017 ''Equestria Girls'' logo, which, along with the new ''My Little Pony'' logo, is modeled on the ''My Little Pony: The Movie'' logo.
