It's not unusual for characters on TV shows to not mention their relatives until they make an appearance. In fact, I'd say it's the rule, rather then the exception, and I can't think of another show I watch where I'd be surprised if they introduced Character A's brother without him having been mentioned. I also wouldn't be surprised if we met more missing relatives in the future. (Of course, I'm holding out hope that the Apple parents and Scoot's parents are still alive somewhere.)

If anything, I'm a little more annoyed at another alicorn showing up out of nowhere. I think that's why you're calling Mary Sue, and I would agree except that that's the only real sue-ish part of Cadance. Her magic is in line with regular unicorn powers, and if she'd been a unicorn I wouldn't have blinked.

I was disappointed that the mane 6 didn't save the day, not because I have a problem with romantic love, but because it felt a little deus ex machina. And I thought that, for a two parter, we got a LOT of Twilight and not much of anyone else. Plus what everyone has pointed out about the repeat of the Lesson Zero moral.

So yeah, I didn't hate it, but it wasn't as good as Return of Harmony. They can do better.

OP

That's true, and I might just be expecting too much of them in that regard. And I did like the relationship between her and Shining. I just feel like, if they were going to suddenly introduce a brother, couldn't they do it in a way that doesn't contradict her childhood (fillyhood?) so much. Make him a long lost sibling or estranged or something?

Yeah, that is a lot of the reason, but she also doesn't have any real flaws. As a previous commenter said, I think I would have liked her more if she'd kept some of that haughty attitude from when she was actually the changeling (it'd sure explain who nobody batted an eye at her behaviour, and she would have been more interesting that way.)
But even with that, I think I wouldn't have minded nearly as much if she'd just been a regular unicorn.

yeah, I mean I love Twilight, so it was nice to see so much of her, but some focus on the other girls would have been nice, especially since this is a finale.
