What do you think about it all these years later?
>>43694112I think it's funny because I hate Flutterfags. It's been so long I don't even remember why I started hating them in the first place.
He made a better match with Celestia...Anyway, Fluttershy is nothing more than a mortal, when all is said and done, it’s just a matter of waiting another 60 years for her to die, so that Celestia can step in and have Discord all to herself.
He was meant to be the harem leader of the main 6. Especially Twilight and Pinkie. This is weak.
>>43694112Why does everyone look so tired in the future. The hags in the past weren't like this even
>>43694142crime rates rocketed and the economy is in a slump during twilight's rule
>>43694141That's Spike.
>>43694112He could've done so much better for himself.
>>43694142Haber is a hack
>>43694165How no one liked this faggot
>>43694172You're forgetting the part mid-way through S5 where they all suddenly stop hating him and start liking him. From there, he could've picked anyone.
>>43694142twilight canonically oversee's the downfall of Equestria. G5 is set in a post apocalypse. Well post, post apocalypse.
>>43694112I had a dream that Discord's voice actor came up as gay and everyone was like "yeah, that was obvious, he always had a gay voice"
>>43694222He's not gay, he's just an asshole.
It's cute, I don't hate it because I was never a flutterfag
PQ's done a few comics on it and they did kinda help me see it as a cute couple.
>>43694112Discord post Return of Harmony sucks in every episode following apart from in To Where and Back Again. Or maybe rewatching Three's a crowd has had a bad influence on me. Eitherway, flutters deserves better
>>43694242They feel out of character for Discord.
>>43694244>Discord post Return of Harmony sucks in every episodeDon't forget the short period of time when he joined forces with Tirek.
>>43694244I think his characterisation is remarkably consistent across the course of the show, at least much more so than most of the others by the later seasons. He's the same arbitrary, unaccountable troll in pretty much every appearance. The problem's more in how he was applied and how the world reacted to him. In any sensible Equestria, he'd be back in the statuary before we even meet Glimglam.
>>43694263>He's the same arbitrary, unaccountable trollExcept with Fluttershy for absolutely no real reason, she hated his guts in S2, he disliked her in S2, then suddenly he can't live without her.
>>43694269Yeah, I don't have an answer for that, either. The ending of that S3 episode is bizarre. Tricked her into thinking they were friends so hard that he somehow managed to trick himself, too. Maybe someone took a chisel to his brainpan between seasons.
>>43694112This ship always felt like this to me.
>>43694242Am I tard, I don't understand these.
I have a love-hate relationship with it. Meaning I love jacking off to it and hate myself.
>>43694396this but with Fluttershy's brother raping Fluttershy
>>43694396Well, thanks for being honest about your cuckold fetish. Not all men know themselves so well.
>>43694112Even as someone who likes shipping, Fluttercord is an example of how a perfectly good platonic friendship between two characters gets completely ruined by people who can only see things as potential romance.
>>43694449Fans push it so hard the writers actually made it canon, it's sad, I would had liked an episode of Fluttershy playing matchmaking with Discord and Celestia.
>>43694396>First that one Flutterfag who said he wanted to fuck cream the rabbit>Now thisWhat's going on with Flutterfags lmao
>>43694112Liked him when he was a villain. Hated his redemption that came out of left field. Trying to redeem him is so extremely retarded from the perspective of literally every single character that it boggles the mind. For Fluttershy especially, since she is willing to condemn everything and everyone she holds dear to the whim of this selfish chaos retard since she hopes he will just stop being mean. And then he goes out of character and stops being mean but not really. This is like playing with tsar bombs in hopes that you can cut your grass with them or something and not destroy everything you want to keep intact. Post redemption this mean selfish retard is a mean selfish retard but this time he doesn't get any comeuppance. Post Tirek I actively despised him. Should have been stoned, cut up and turned into Celestia's garden tiles.There is also the small and insignificant, teeny tiny problem in that you can solve every problem with his magic.>shipping Being a shipperfag is probably the only reason you would like him.So all in all he is good if you consider major developments past season 2 fanfiction.
>>43694474Chrysalis X Discord
>>43694474This, but Glimmer.
>>43694142Creature fatigue
>>43694112I still think Rarity and Spike were smashing in secret in that future
>>43694401
Both of the pairs this shit implies are a thing are ass, to the point they even tried walking back this one. They're both fandom concepts that were never fleshed out and would have horrible relationships as a result. They're fine as friends but there's an extra level to the amount of interaction you have with a lover, and in both cases these characters have very skewed dynamics that would be terrible when exposed to eachother for long periods.I really just don't feel too much strong about this ending ultimately, its just empty fluff where i can "wow that looks like shit" but ultimately i'm just not very invested.>>43694181Technically speaking the story bible and official statements just excuse it by saying ascended alicorns are knockoffs who don't actually have an extended life span so she croaks quickly after sperging out and splitting Equestria to guard relics that she used as a safety measure to stop magic draining gimmicks(the ponies only became racist after multiple generations of only visiting eachother every twenty years or something).Don't question what happened to the 3 other natural alicorns, despite literally putting them in the backstory of their base villain they forgot. High quality world building from G5 as usual.
>>43694756>3 other natural alicornsYou mean two? They retired and left Equestria because Celestia got bored.
>>43694765Twilights spergout drained magic from everywhere and the idea they literally never check on the ponies ever throughout millennia is retarded. I mean the retirement idea was retarded in the first place even without random future nonsense(they forgot luna's entire thing), but with the context that Twilight is going to croak in a normal pony's lifetime or so; the idea they never come back makes even less sense.
>>43694774Oh yeah it's insanely stupid.>Flurry HeartI can't believe I forgot about her. Oh well, she went off to have lots of lesbian sex with Cozy Glow or whatever.

>>43694112I'm glad Haber will never work on this show ever again.
>>43694112:mysides: OH NONONONONO FLUTTERKEKS DON'T LOOK :mysides:
>>43694119They had a history together when they were younger.
>>43694380its easy to understand
>>43697413I bring darkness to their landSo what causes them to fleemust be my supremacy
>>43697540alas I truly see
>>43696280Source?
>>43694250They are. Discord was a total shithead in the series and I can't fathom why writers made all characters just tolerate him. Also I hate this "safe chaotic" shit which isn't really chaos at all. Discord should had stayed in stone.
>>43698608i'd imagine the writers were a big fan of his voice actor so they wanted him to voice more.
>>43699040star trek fans i see
>>43699040As if there weren't enough reasons to hate Trekkies.
>>43699424Trekkies are based, yes.
>>43699433Trekkies are based for ruining the guy who was better as a villain?
>>43699443No, the Trekkies made S2 Discord. It's Disney girls who ruined Discord by wanting Beast instead of Q (an asshole).
Fluttercucks? The eternal punching bags of these halls
>>43699955I sometimes wonder how much truth there is to this, since the likeness between the relationship dynamics can't be anything more than skin-deep. What do Discord and the Beast have in common, exactly? They're both furry? They both prefer their tableware sentient? Is that all it takes? And besides, wouldn't anyone who's self-inserting as Fluttershy for this purpose want the character to be all brooding and self-serious and oozing with pathos? Imagine Discord acting like that. No, stop laughing, I'm serious. It just doesn't hold together on any level.
>>43699955This is the dumbest shit I ever heard. Discord remained an asshole but, thanks to people like you on the writing staff, we were just supposed to laugh it off as him being le quirky when Discord is fundamentally incompatible with harmony.
>>43699955S3+ Discord, especially Haber era Discord, is almost literally TNG Q wtf are you smoking. The only sense in which trekkies made discord is that the original writing crew were trekkies (no accounting for taste lol) and the interest that saw Discord coming back was entirely of the >>43699040 variety that directly lead to his awful version.RoH Discord was in the era of good Hasbro decisions anyway so I wouldn't even attribute him totally to the writers unless you've got a statement saying that he's exactly how he was originally envisaged.
this is not canon and I renounce it with my entire being
>>43694474I think they did the "this world endangering event is actually a test for twilight" a few too many times. The tirek thing only becomes slightly forgivable if it was intended that way, but then it becomes obnoxious when he does it 2 more times after like it's a personality trait.
DRACONEQUIS COCK IN YELLOW HORSE
>>43700019it's canon because I said so and im superior than you.
I wanted Discord back... But I wanted him as a VILLAIN and major antagonist, he was literally the perfect opposite of Celestia and harmony.
Why is Discord cucking Anon the paradigm? Why isn't it a golden opportunity for Anon to cuck Discord instead?It's obvious that Discord is an irredeemable asshole and even Fluttershy doesn't like his shenanigans. Discord deserves cucking. Anon checks Fluttershy's non-pony fetish box. I'm posting in this useless shitass thread to lobby any Flutterfags that see this to start reverse cuckposting.
>>43700073stay mad fluttercuck
>>43700073Most Flutterfags are shy and introverted and are drawn to Flutteshy for having a similar personality. Hence, they mostly don't have the confidence to make shit like that.
>>43700073The issue with this solution is that its impossible without a massively OOC discord. He wasn't neutered enough in show that it makes sense that you can actually get away with this, he'd make you instantly eat your own balls or something in retaliation. And because this ship was based on a completely nonsensical beast dynamic, he doesn't make sense as the "happy" cuck either.If you accept it as a pair, then you've already lost.
>>43700057>muh Chaos = Harmony * -1How droll. I find it much more productive to conceptualize Harmony as the delicate balance of Chaos and Order, though I agree turning Q into a rank-and-file Good Guy (tm) would've ruined his character even if Hasjew actually committed to the bit.
>>43700073Why lower yourself to spamming a shit tier fetish when you can simply say:>not Faust not canon
>>43700105but you're not canon either so it's a paradox
>>43694112quite chaotic hee hee
discord's like that boss you defeat only to receive them as a companion who's both somehow spayed and neutered to the point of being usless, except discord wasn't useless but he nonetheless chose to be for absolutely no reason
>>43700433>Discord chose to be useless because this was the only way for Twilight to grow, even though she sealed away all magic in the end anyways
>>43700433The reason is that he's a dickhead
>>43700092>muh Chaos = Harmony * -1That is the literal definition of Discord's character and the MLP: FiM setting, yes. Discord is the personification of the thing that the ponies were afraid of in Bridle Gossip. He is the ur-nigger.
The sweetest, kindest pony is banging the literal embodiment of chaos. Match made in (the pony equivalent of) heaven desu.
>>43700803>the whitest, tradest woman is banging the literal embodiment of niggerYes, Vogel is Jewish. I get it. We all get it.
>>43700835>the whitest, tradest woman is banging the literal embodiment of niggerBut enough about Applejack and Dash
>>43700837Dash has a job. She by definition is not a nigger.
>>43700857but all pegasi are though
>Discord gets to fuck this every nightLucky bastard
>>43701303ehhh, he can have her
