At 19:14 she doesn't outright say it, but it's implied and you can obviously tell cause they already finished working on season 3.

At the rate that bronies are supporting the show I am less than surprised.

You know, I've been wondering lately what the show and everything around it would have looked like right now if there were no bronies.
For example; would the season 2 finale be this hyped? Actually, would there be episode previews at all?

I don't think the show would have even made it to season 3.

It all makes since now.
I always wondered what her cutie mark meant and now we know her cutie mark symbolizes "the magic of" friendship, meaning she was destined to use the elements of harmony.

Celestia better watch out cause at the rate Twilight is gaining magical abilities she'll have as much power as a alicorn.

Harmony Mode, Twi and friends ARE stronger then Celestia (unless she held back, to let Twi and her friends learn, in those situations where the elements of harmony were needed), if "normal" Twilight grows stronger as she grows closer to archiving harmony (learning EVERYTHING about Friendship), then she might grow to that level of power, but that would exactly be, what Celestia inteds by teaching her, imho. Also interesting, Harmony still keeps balance, Alicorns are equally Earthponie/Pegasus/Unicorn, Harmony is made up of equal amounts of Earthponies, Pegasie and Unicorns.

I wonder what'll happen in the long run. Will Twilight become a alicorn? If so, then what'll happen to her friends? If the others of the mane6 become alicorns by proxy then holy smokes that would be extreme overkill.

Maybe twilight would ascend to being an alicorn, after her friends all passed away, when there is nothing left to keep her from leaving her old life behind.

Or they will stay ponies, (imagine the Harmony to always be represented by ponies, Nightmare's moon defeat for example, Celestia wasn't actually using the elements of harmony herself, but just was supported by the Harmony-ponies of that time, ofcourse Celestia would always want to find the Harmony-ponies and to teach them)

Well considering the most logical explanation to the founding date of ponyville and how they have a stable society is that their lifespans are longer than our we probably won't ever find out if her friends will pass away. It's possible that she might become a alicorn since there's more to alicorns than just a genetic mutation otherwise we'd have a couple hundred alicorns running around the place.

So it's possible we may see twilight become a alicorn, but next to no chance we'll ever see another of the mane6 die of old age.

I was going to go on about how Twilight can't become an Alicorn because of biology and species and genetics and shit. But then I remembered "magic done it" and now here we are.

We have no clue how alicorns come about, cause if it was JUST genetics there'd be flipping couple hundred running around with how long they live.

The best guess I have is that the alicorn mutation is rare, regressive gene and the vast majority of the time it's not expressed. What I mean by that is that there's a chance a couple hundred unicorns out there carry the gene, BUT so far as we know only Celestia, Luna & Cadence have the mutation expressed.

Odds are it's just magic.

Is there any canon about what came first, pony or Alicorn? (besides the play, where there is ponys before Celestia's reign)
If it is Pony's then Alicorns, then the Ponys could have "created" the first Alicorn via magic to have a neutral ruler, that is sure to keep peace without favoring any race (since it is equal parts earthponie, pegasus, unicorn)


EDIT:
Odds are it's just magic.
yeah, but "magic did it" isn't as much fun as talking about theories
