Canterlot High meets its rival school, Crystal Prep Academy, in a competition that’s a long-standing tradition – The Friendship Games. Sunset Shimmer is tasked with keeping magic out of the games to avoid the appearance of impropriety while she and her friends compete against Crystal Prep’s top students led by someone with an equal amount of interest in Equestrian magic – this world’s TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was the first Equestria Girls film without pony versions of the main cast—Hasbro committed to the human AU.
Midnight Sparkle's design directly homages anime magical girl corruption arcs, particularly Madoka Magica—extremely bold for a toy commercial.
