* AnAesop: Just because you aren't being actively mean to someone doesn't mean your treatment of them qualifies as nice by default. Apathy can be just as mean in its own way, even if you don't intend to cause any harm.

* OffModel:
** During his brief cameo in the extended version, the pony version of Flash Sentry is missing his wings.
** The scene of Twilight sleeping that Sunset views from [[spoiler:Wallflower's memories]] is of the humanized Princess Twilight instead of human-world Twilight Sparkle (made most evident by her lack of curly bangs on the sides of her head; the yellow pajamas too, a mistake made by the cover of ''Magical Movie Night'' as well).
** In one shot, [[https://derpibooru.org/1661370 Angel Bunny is duplicated, and Rainbow Dash is missing a foot.]]

* BareYourMidriff: The swimwear worn by Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Sunset Shimmer and Trixie include bared midriffs.

* {{Fanservice}}: The special gives us the Equestria Girls (and Trixie) in swimsuits (Fluttershy wears [[SensualSpandex a wetsuit]]). [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/mlp/images/2/26/Rarity_being_dismissive_of_Sunset_Shimmer_EGFF.png/revision/latest?cb=20181020093821 They're very conservative swimsuits]], a given considering the intended age bracket of the series. But, still; the Equestria Girls in swimsuits. Trixie is even revealed in her swimwear with [[MaleGaze a pan up her legs]].

* BlatantLies: Twilight insists she has absolutely no reason to be jealous of Microchips after he wins a yearbook category for intelligence. The other girls don't buy it.
-->'''Twilight Sparkle:''' Oh, good for Microchips. "Most Likely to Invent Cold Fusion." Not a reason to be jealous. Pfft! I'm not! ''[forced laugh]''

** At school, Sunset gets fed up with everyone being scared of her when Microchips gives her his lunch money when she tries to help him up. So she shoves it into his chest and angrily shouts she ''isn't'' mean, very loudly and rudely.

** When the students are once again afraid of Sunset and Microchips gives her his lunch money when she tries to help him up, she angrily shouts that she's not mean. Later, after finding out who is responsible for erasing everyone's memories and why ([[spoiler:Wallflower Blush did it so everyone will still see Sunset as a bully out of anger at being ignored]]), Sunset approaches the culprit menacingly while growling she'll show them just how mean she can really be.

* BreakTheCutie: The devastation of seeing the entire school, particularly her six closest friends, desert her pushes Sunset to the precipice of the DespairEventHorizon, [[spoiler:which is exactly what Wallflower wants; to leave Sunset a friendless wreck]]. Only managing to befriend Trixie keeps Sunset's head above water in her fight to reclaim her life. [[spoiler:Then Wallflower painfully leeches all of Sunset's high school memories out of her head, leaving her cowering on the ground in a panic not knowing where or even [[HumanityEnsues what she is]]. Thankfully, her friends witness this and finally come to her aid.]]

* NiceHat: Human Twilight and Rarity both sport these as part of their swimwear ensembles -- a peaked cap and a broad-brimmed sun hat, respectively.

* BlatantLies: Twilight insists she has absolutely no reason to be jealous of Micro Chips after he wins a yearbook category for intelligence. The other girls don't buy it.

** Wallflower’s green skin and affinity for plants make her somewhat reminiscent of [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Characters/BatmanPoisonIvy Poison Ivy]].

* DoubleMeaningTitle: ''Forgotten Friendship'' could mean three seperate things: The obvious one is the mysterious memory wipe of the Humane Six with them forgetting ever being friends with Sunset, Sunset's forgotten friendship with Princess Celestia, or [[spoiler: A resentful and lonely [[BigBad Wallflower Blush]] tired of being ignored and forgotten by the others]].

* DutchAngle: Appears in the climax as [[spoiler:Wallflower moves into position and fires the Memory Stone at Sunset’s friends.]]
