dRoy, it is likely "Because plot" which I raised. On the other hand there is a very real possibility you were consciously ignoring that. I'll admit it's not a particularly satisfactory answer, but that's the way it goes sometimes.

Journalism is just a gun. It's only got one bullet in it, but if you aim right, that's all you need.
@Badwolf: It's largely a question of "You don't know that it'll home in until you try to dodge it, so dodging won't make it any worse.
I pray that the next major villain takes a step outside of the constraint that bound its antecedents.

Or they have one that doesn't require the
Eo H at all.
Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.
I want a composed villain who is not about taking over Equestria or something in the similar line.

How about a villian that uses them against each other? I guess Discord sort of did that.

A Carmen!Pony who snoops stuff just to show she can would be pretty cool.
Yes, Discord did that. However, it would have been great if he obstructed the reunification of Discorded Mane Cast as well.
Really, after Discord was defeated, I did not expect much out of Chysalis. True, Twilight being
thrown to Hell (I like using that phrase) and subsequent revelation were very, very, surprising, but right after that I just knew that within minutes everything is just going to be fine via somekind of emotion-fueled superattack.
If this continues to next season as well, I shall be very disappointed.

Discord didn't really do much manipulation, he just mind controlled the girls.
Well, if Trixie turns out to be a villain, her defeat should be interesting. She isn't exactly someone who necessitates using the rainbow laser of doom on, but should still be threatening all the same.
@Bluespade - Yes, but with exception of Fluttershy, his psychological assault was mostly based on manipulation. And very weird theatrics.

I'm seriously considering getting that season 1 DVD set. If I do, it will be my first pony merchandise. I've added it to my Amazon checkout cart and will decide what to do tomorrow or so.
Apocalypse is the first letter of the alphabet.
I probably wouldn't buy it. It is not worth it to me.
