Soo keen for episode 2 now!!
ReplyDeleteGRRRRRRRR! *ragequit*
ReplyDeleteI think i'll go back to watching to some 1 star movies since they are more fun
ReplyDeleteFluttershy's cheating! She's going through the bushes instead of the maze!
ReplyDeletePacing felt a little rushed, but... That. Was. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteFluttershy is most resistant pony.
ReplyDeleteWe must know what happens!
ReplyDeleteJust finished it. That was excellent.
ReplyDeleteMOVE OVER, NIGHTMARE MOON, WE HAVE A NEW BEST VILLAIN.
ReplyDeleteaha just ended
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure Discord is my new favorite character.
ReplyDeleteOh geez Partial Pinkamena and Partial FlutterRaeg. Then we end it with Maniacal evil laughter for the second season in a row. I knew waiting for the second episode was going to be far harder than waiting for the first.
ReplyDelete*Sigh*
RAINBOW NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
ReplyDeletedid a villain just actually triumph (temporarily) in a kid's show? :O
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOD!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI do enjoy how he just gives up trying to trick Fluttershy into being cruel and just brute forces it.
"Oh for the love of..."
Such a great episode.
ReplyDeleteThat episode was pretty damn good. Can't wait for episode 2
ReplyDeleteHoly shit that episode was awesome! Now I have to wait another week, NNNuuuuu!
ReplyDeleteMOAR! NEED MOAR
ReplyDeletehowever just like his name he turned 5 of the mane 6 against their element
ReplyDeleteCELESTIA IS PICARD AAAAAAA
ReplyDeleteMY BODY WAS READY.
ReplyDeleteITS OVER!!!! FFFFUFUFUFUFUFFUFUUFU*FU*FUFu
ReplyDeleteI NEED MORE. MORE I SAY!!1
ReplyDeleteHOLY CRAP, THAT WAS AMAZING.
ReplyDeleteI had my doubts when I saw discord but he turned out better than I expected. Awesome episode! Way too rushed though....
ReplyDeleteNo more ponies:(
ReplyDeleteFluttershy's was the best!
ReplyDeleteGood stuff. I can't wait to see how this wraps up. I wonder if the others are still corrupted or not. Also, Pinkie Pie wanting chocolate rain, so hilarious.
ReplyDeleteGood one Hasbro, I'm looking forward to next week!
Amazing episode. I kind of like Discord after he did the running man on top of glass Twilight's head.
ReplyDeletebest. episode. ever
ReplyDeleteCliffhanger.
ReplyDeleteFUCK THIS EPISODEEEEEEEEEE
discord is one of the best villains ever...EEEEEEEEVEEEEEEEEEER.......DISCOOOOOOOORD
ReplyDeleteAnother week until episode 2... now I'm sad...
ReplyDeleteThere is no way... NO WAY.... that they wrote Discord without having TNG's Q in mind.
ReplyDeleteAdd the fact they secured John De Lancie...yea, I'm sure there's a top tier VA that could have done the role justice, but getting the original Q to do this...
JUST SAW IT, OH MY GOD IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteDiscord was DAMN awesome. SO much better than Nightmare Moon.
ReplyDeleteA most excellent episode, but why couldn't they do a back to back with the second episode?!
ReplyDeleteThose SlenderBunnies were rofl.
ReplyDeleteThoughts on the episode:
ReplyDeleteAngry Pinkie Pie is kewl.
Fluttershy trolling Discord was brilliant.
I'm very excited for part 2.
A very good episode all the way through.
Next Week...
ReplyDeleteWhat a great episode, I can't wait until part 2 next week <3
ReplyDeleteBut I want to know what happens next. And to see the first minute of the show that I missed trying to find a stream.
ReplyDeleteCLIFFHANGER WHY?!!!?!
ReplyDeleteAlso chocolate rain and cotton candy clouds... just... XD
Oh my God, that was amazing.
ReplyDeleteSweetie Belle's a dictionary.
ReplyDeleteWatched it!
ReplyDeleteSo awesome!
Whoa, that was so much darker than I expected. I approve and can't wait to see the second half. Also I find it extremely interesting that the 'leaked' plot several months ago was actually the real S2E1 plot. Now to wait 7 days for the rest!
ReplyDeleteSpoiler: Fluttershy turns badass
ReplyDeleteDamn, Discord, You scary as hell.
ReplyDeleteFlutterhsy is a big meany pants!
ReplyDelete"what are you laughing at?!?!"
ReplyDelete"uhhh... Chocolate milk."
This was awesome.
ReplyDeleteBut OMG Fluttershy.
AntiRarity was best pony... Just sayin
ReplyDeleteIt's over D:
ReplyDeleteDiscord is AWESOME (by bad guy standards that is)!Now time to wait till next week for part 2
ReplyDeleteBest... episode... ever...
ReplyDeletei loved how we say another side to celestia
ReplyDeleteVERY AWESOME EPISODE~!!!
ReplyDeleteREVERSE FLUTTERSHY AND PINKIE D:
If I had wings, I'd be getting wingboners.
ReplyDeleteTHAT WAS AMAZING!!! PONIES ARE AT MAXIMUM LEVEL!!!
ReplyDeleteScootaloo is a chicken or a dodo, and sweetie bell(e?)is a dictionary, and applebloom is a pony...cutie mark crusaders animals and inanimate object YAY!!!
ReplyDeletelol, Discord totally ='s Q.
ReplyDeleteI want more!
ReplyDeleteHmm, I found the episode... a bit rushed, but by the looks of it, the team had to fit a lot of content into the 22 minute span, therefore, it was awesome.
ReplyDeleteANOTHER WEEK OF WAITING GGAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!
I really like flutterbitch
ReplyDeletethat was so awesome /)^3^(\
ReplyDeleteOoooooh wow....that was awesome!
ReplyDeleteThat was utterly beautiful.
ReplyDeleteDiscord confirmed for Celestia-tier antagonist.
The game has been VASTLY stepped-up this time around.
.....is it bad that I think evil!Fluttershy is kind of awesome?
ReplyDeleteThat.....was....AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteWatching via streaming didn't work well so I have to wait for a download link.
ReplyDeletegreat episode.. now I just have to wait another week to find out what happens :(
ReplyDeleteGreedy Rarity is so boss. "Thank you Twilight, but HANDS OFF THE GEM. I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE. GAAGH."
ReplyDeleteI sense some Yukari vibe in Discord.
ReplyDeleteWow. WOW. WOW!!!
ReplyDeleteIT WAS SO FUCKING AWESOME IT HURTS!
Rarity Knows where you Live....
ReplyDeleteAnyway That Was Brilliant!
That was AMAZING! Props to Studio B.
ReplyDeleteBut the ANTICIPATION! AGH.
OMC WE HAVE TO WAIT Another WEEK!!!!
ReplyDeleteNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
That was Awesome!!!
Isn't it cheating to hypnotize somepony into breaking your own rules?
ReplyDeleteGoin' back to bed. Wake me in a week!
Episode 2!!
ReplyDeleteHow could he Get Pinky Pie down! ARGH!
Still Chocolate Rain was pretty epic. As was the horn key.
Q is best pony.
ReplyDeleteOk folks, new canon content !!!
ReplyDeleteDiscord ruled the land BEFORE the royal pony sisters !!!!
Also...
- Discord is powerful as buck !!!
- Discord is awesome xD
- Ponies lost the game. I love the writers now :P
- Fluttershy is too kind to be manipulated xD
Overall opinion: awesome episode, can't wait for the second part !!!
Scrunchy faces.
ReplyDeleteScrunchy faces everywhere.
awesome episode. Now waiting for episode 2.
ReplyDeleteAnd I swear the commercials where planned. It rains chocolate - Chocolate milk commercial
Applejack get's screentime - commercial for Applejack cerial
the heck? XD
Very good episode, good to know that Season 2 will be just as good.
ReplyDeleteDid Discord sound like Q from Star trek to anypony else?
CURSE YOU TO BE CONTINUED SCREEN CURSE YOU!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time in ever a kids show (heck we can't call MLP FiM THAT anymore this episode was just too effing much) ever got me emotional
and then it was over
ReplyDelete<3
I hate cliffhangers :/
ReplyDelete*SPOILER ALERT*
ReplyDeleteAnyone else lol at Discord getting fed up with Fluttershy and turning her mean by force?
Season's looking PREEEEEETTY good!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely like Discord's evil plan (as in turn everypony into the opposite of their element)
And the episode seems a little...darker than S1's first two parter episode.
Conclusion: DO WANT!
"This... haaandsome~ hunk~."
ReplyDeleteRarity is best pony VA.
@Jared Stafford
ReplyDeleteHer hair probably wasn't straight because she wasn't genuinely depressed. Discord was controlling her just like he did with Fluttershy. (he poked her head and she became controlled instantly)
Just finished...that was awesome. SETH! You HAVTA do this every time a new episode comes out, you jus' HAVTA!
ReplyDelete:D
Brohoof!
that was FANTASTIC
ReplyDeleteI was getting worried after the first 5mins, the episode seemed really rushed and everypony was a stereotype but it seems that was just to get newer viewers up to speed.
ReplyDeleteEverything after Canterlot was epic
Oh man, so much break the cutie I can barely take it!
ReplyDeletewell, live-stream went to hell for me :/ kept lagging and my family choose those very 22 minutes that i've been anticipating for months to start using my room as some kind of gather room so i had to keep tabbing out to not look like a moron...
ReplyDeletehow soon can we expect high res youtube videos?
Didn't the ad say 'New pony' and then 'Different pony'?
ReplyDeleteSomeone had a serious Star Trek boner when they wrote the episode. Discord is Q to a tee. Powers, mannerisms, even the corny jokes.
ReplyDeleteAnd nice Labyrinth reference mid-episode too.
DOES ANYPONY KNOW WHEN PART 2 COMES OUT?!?! D:
ReplyDeleteI was sad to see that the intro didnt seem to change. Other than that, this episode was boss!
ReplyDeleteDiscord is now one of my favorite villains of all time. He even got the mane 6 to cheat at his own game, causing them to auto-lose. How ingenious is that?!
Was nice to see serious Celestia for a change, and multiple references to Luna too. Looks like Discord's backstory torpedoes most of the origin stories though.
CUTIE MARK CRUSADER EVIL MONSTER UNLEASHERS
ReplyDeleteDid... did Discord just mind-rape the ponies??
ReplyDelete*sits in corner shaking*
what have you done to my dash discord! NOOOOOOOoooooooooooo
ReplyDeleteWoah, that advanced really fast. Like, the entire S1E1 was build-up to NMM. S2E1 says, "screw that, let's jump right in!"
ReplyDeleteCelestia's kinda got some White Witchiness going on. Who seals their enemies into statues and puts them in your garden?
ReplyDeleteto 6 of the first 7 comments, I say: Fuck you. ^^
ReplyDeletethat was SO AWESOME i cant wait till next week :D
ReplyDeleteIs Episode 2 not airing today? I thought the plan was to air the two-part premier.
ReplyDeleteI like how Discord's all "fuck this, I'm out" when screwing with Fluttershy.
ReplyDelete:waiting impatiently for a DL/YT link to become available:
ReplyDeleteSo great, can't wait for next week
ReplyDeleteOh real smart, Discord. The only pony you didn't brainwash is the one with the most powerful magical abilities other than the princesses themselves. Tool!
ReplyDeletePegasai is now cannon.
ReplyDeleteCelestia really has a habit of imprisoning her enemies forever, doesn't she?
ReplyDeletenext week? really? come on i cant wait that long, oh i know, oooohh Discord can you make this day 24 of september?
ReplyDeleteflutterbitch is now canon.
ReplyDeleteFlutterbitch. New meme. You heard it here first.
ReplyDelete(Spoiler) NO Luna at all. And I was looking forward to seeing her.
ReplyDeleteJust watched it!!! Was epic and i love mean fluttershy<3
ReplyDeleteDiscord is the best pony!
ReplyDeleteGood episode, indeed, but not AWESOME :$
ReplyDeleteDiscord Rules! ^^
Hey guys, am I the only one who realized the apple abominations were supposed to be the Moirae?
ReplyDeleteThose things from Clash of the Titans(2010) and Disney's Hercules?
Also known as the Fates?
Missed the first half of it since I had to find a good stream. But at least I got to see a lot of Discord lol. Definitely re-watch once it gets on Youtube.
ReplyDeleteIt went too fast damnit!
ReplyDeleteDiscord cheated with Fluttershy, he never tempted her against her element.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah...That's some good pony.
ReplyDeleteI feel like a crack addict but it's true. I Need Moar!
Fluttershy loved and tolerated the shit out of him like a boss.
ReplyDeleteOdds that him cheating into turning her cruel's going to come back to bite him next episode?
HASHDEFLABERGASKET! BEST EPISODE EVAR CAN'T WAIT FOR NEXT WEEEEK! OHAY IT'S ON AGAIN! BEST DAY EVER! DISQORD FTW!
ReplyDeletecannot WAIT for next episode
ReplyDeleteended to soon u_u
@Dakota
ReplyDeleteYes, Fluttershy part was pretty much the best ;)
Discord: "The GAME."
ReplyDeleteRockity and Traitor-Dash.
ReplyDeleteFluttershy totally trolled Discord! I laughed hard.
ReplyDeleteThat was amazing. Words do not describe.
ReplyDelete@Tonzog
ReplyDeleteNews Flash, it IS Q. Same Actor. Hell, same character as far as I can tell.
Well S2E1&2 was suppose to be S1 Finale, right? but they had to move to Season 2
ReplyDelete@B.D.
ReplyDeleteIkr?
Get ready for Chaos? NOOOOO! We need those Grey Knights from last night's roundup!
ReplyDeleteGood episode. A tad rushed but they only have 40 mins over two episodes to work with. Which is good because it keeps it fresh. Take the latest series of torchwood, the last thing with Q in it, went on far too long and was absolutely terrible (only one storyline for the whole damned series).
Well that was.....tripy. I didn't even take anything this morning.
ReplyDeleteDiscord is an interesting villian, I really want to see what he does next.
His whole "doubt yourself" plan of his is fairly good. Better than Nightmare Moon's "beat them with force" plan.
Also Chocolate Rain is now a pony meme. Didn't see that coming.
Discord is a master troll D:
ReplyDeleteDiscord is pretty awesome ( outside of cheating on Fluttershy ), Pinkie pie was funny as all get out as well lol.
ReplyDeleteI already think I have a few potential guesses on what happens in episode 2 as well.
Pinkie's party...just...Pinkie's party.
ReplyDeleteNow that's a villian!
ReplyDeleteAm I the only who notices that protagonists are unusally quick to believe the villian or a villian's lacky? I mean, does it ever cross their mind to ask "Wait, why should I believe what you're saying?"
Actual chocolate rain! Also, I really think that they channeled a "Q" kind of character in discord.
ReplyDeleteMy only complaint is that we have to wait a week for the conclusion. D:
THAT WAS AWESOME!! Cant wait for next week ^_^
ReplyDeleteAlso Discord cheated >.>
Damn you cmc! Why must you ruin everything!?
ReplyDeleteOk I'm here, did I miss it?!
ReplyDeleteFFFUUUUUU!11!!!1!
@Rita Lot Yeah it's kinda disappointing that they didn't have Luna on this episode. I don't want to wait another week to see how this ends ><
ReplyDelete@Smayds
ReplyDeleteHe said himself it was the most elusive element,but if he cheated with FLuttershy, i dont see why he couldnt with Twilight.
Very nice to have another Epic Adventure in the vein of "Elements of Harmony" again, and I rather appreciated that we got a better sense of why Discord is do dangerous than we did from Nightmare Moon. I also very much enjoyed all the little character moments, like the CMC arguing or the girls working together to get the chocolate rain (some stay dry and others feel the pain) under control. Discord himself makes for a magnificent new bad guy, with John DeLancie doing a bang-up job with the voice-work. The Q connection is clear, but he gives Discord a good, distinct sense of character even so (he's a lot more playful than Q, but also a lot more vindictive), and his window-pane conversation with Celestia was very tense and cool. I'm also a sucker for a good "toying with emotions" sub-plot, though I do think it might've been nice to clarify that the girls walked into his traps because they thought they were following their Elements BEFORE Rainbow Dash explicitly says so. Nonetheless, it was very enjoyably handled, with special points going to AJ (for why she succumbs), Rarity (for trying to resist), and Fluttershy (for trolling the troll X3). Admittedly, as a Part 1, it does feel a bit set-up heavy, but that's only to be expected and is a minor complaint overall. Bring on Part 2, baby!
ReplyDeleteHere comes all the chocolate rain references.
ReplyDeleteDid the beginning of the episode seemed rushed to any other pony or is it just me? Other then that great episode!!!
ReplyDeleteThis episode was very rushed. I fear my premonitions are coming true.
ReplyDeleteWHERE THE HELL WAS LUNA
ReplyDeleteAlso, eternal chaos comes with chocolate rain, you guys.
BUT NOT LUNA
Yes, Fluttershy was epic for resisting Discord. Too bad he was a big meanie-pants using admin hax.
ReplyDeleteDiscord is a total BAMF. Can't wait to see more of him.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeletethat was the best spent night of my life...
ReplyDeleteNo Luna yet? Frowny face. :(
ReplyDeleteFluttershy could've totally won the mind game if Discord wasn't such a cheater.
ReplyDeleteAwesome Episode. i need part 2! Another week of waiting ;_;
So, based on the comments here, is it sure to say that I will not be dissapointed by this seasons starter, when I finally get to see it on youtube?
ReplyDeleteAs awesome as that was, i now have to stay awake for 168 hours to watch the next one.
ReplyDeleteSerious props to the animation and storyboard teams behind this, that was more than i actually expected
That was epic!
ReplyDeleteDiscord really knew how to buck with them all.
I laughed at the fact he was unable to get to Fluttershy, forcing him to force her to be a jerk.
Next week can't come soon enough.
Episode was really fast paced. It wasted no time in getting straight to the plot and dunk the cast right in the middle.
ReplyDeleteThat and Discord is a lot more villain than Nightmare Moon was in S1.
Discorded ponies make me sad...
ReplyDeleteCHOOOCCOOOLLATTEEEE RAAIIINNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAlso I gotta say he cheated with Fluttershy also go Rarity for actually trying to deny temptation!
so, the specific gray rainbow clips we saw earlier....they're for part 2, evidently
ReplyDeleteI nearly cried at Pinkie's corruption.
ReplyDeleteNOOOOOO! HUB, why do you torture us?!?! Play the next ep already! :O
ReplyDeleteAlthough, I can't wait to see all the stuff people come up with in the mean time. If there isn't a video with Pinkie singing 'Chocolate Rain' in the next couple days, I'll be surprised. XD
OMC IT WAS EPIC!! AHAHAHA! AWESOME! *Le fangasm*
ReplyDeleteWow, Discord is fun. He is a really fun villain, something that we don't get that much from shows today. He is much more threatening than Nightmare Moon. She was doing what she did out of revenge, while discord is doing it to be free and out of fun, which makes him much more dangerous. Plus, he uses temptation, deceit, and fear much more effectively than Nightmare Moon did.
ReplyDeleteBEST EPISODE SO FAR
ReplyDeleteThoughts:
ReplyDelete-CMC. Holy cow, nice job breaking it, ponies.
-The episode definitely felt rushed at the beginning, but apparently they were just hurrying to get to the awesome stuff.
-Discord's voice is ACE! Seriously, I'd never heard of John de Lancie before, but he NAILED it!
-Discord may have corrupted all the ponies except Twilight, but it's worth noting who actually succumbed and who he had to force. Rarity gave in WAY too easily and he barely did anything, but on the other end of the scale Fluttershy was just totally shrugging it off without even noticing what he was playing at. XD
-My little CORRUPTED ponies. Holy crap, the world just got a little darker. I like this tone and am eager to see how this is resolved.
Overall, it all did feel kinda rushed (especially at the beginning), but still, Discord and darker tone are AWESOME!
i found it interesting that discord seamed to mention and belittle celestias extream mesures
ReplyDeletei mean he is this very evil being and he toataly trolls her by saying.
"well I dont turn ponies into stone"
we need more of this!
Best thing I got from this episode after reading the Lauren Faust interview: If this episode is any indication, we can expect the same level of intelligence from our ponies...no talking down to us. This is great writing and something everyone can appreciate no matter what age or maturity. Hopefully after the two-parter we stay at this same level of quality.
ReplyDeleteGreat episode.
CHOCOLATE RAAAAIN!
ReplyDeleteSOME STAY DRY AND OTHERS FEEL THE PAIN
Did anypony notice that Discord sounds exactly like jack of blades from fable 1
ReplyDeleteTHAT WAS AWESOME
ReplyDeleteWhy are we listening to a tacky window?
ReplyDeleteTHIS EPISODE WAS SO EPIC! But we have to wait for part 2!?!?! D:
ReplyDeleteWait, so what animal did they say Discord was again?? I know Cherilee definitely didn't say he was a chimera (like I was afraid everyone would assume he was) but I didn't catch what she did call him.
ReplyDeleteAwesome episode, but I'm really disappointed that they had an hour to show MLP and only showed S2E1 twice.
Discord is awesome. He reminds me of Sheogorath the prince of Madness from the Elder Scrolls: Oblivion.
ReplyDeletesoo so so good.... ima have to rewatch it on youtube when it comes out
ReplyDelete<3 Discord
ReplyDeleteEpisode was far... Rushed in the beggining
ReplyDeleteDiscord is Awesome!
(He made me lose the game though. CURSE YOU!)
I have NEVER gotten up at 5:45am for ANYTHING before.
ReplyDeleteIt was worth it.
Discord is a bigger troll than Trollestia...
ANYONE BUT FLUTTERSHY.
Applejerk, Traitor-Dash, Rockity, Flutterbitch, anyone got one for Pinkie?
ReplyDeleteWant Episode 2!
ReplyDeleteWhen it started, was a little apprehensive about the plot, but in the end I enjoyed it. I see fanfics spawning over the fact Celestia and Luna can't wield the elements anymore. Perhaps Luna hasn't fully forgiven Celestia.
Fluttershy, is the only pony that can frustrate Discord and I loved that scene.
Discord, "I've turned your precious Angel into a marshmallow."
Fluttershy, "That's OK. I'm sure Angel will enjoy being a marshmallow. Really, it's fine."
Discord, "GAH!"
Chocolate Rain
ReplyDeleteSlender-critters
Gray-nbow dash
And Discord doing the melbourne shuffle on twilight's head.
Evr'y day im ponying.
My body was not fucking ready.
ReplyDeleteBasil's stream is fantastic
ReplyDeleteSo, like most ponies I noticed that the pacing in this episode seemed rather rushed. However, in retrospect, that was the only thing worth complaining about. Knowing where he comes from, I originally figured Discord would be a chaotic creature with a bit of 'secret test of character' in there somewhere. Nope; he deliberately inverted that concept and showed that he was straight up evil and more than willing to just push the Element inversion effect on the mane cast, as opposed to giving them any real choice. I shall await the conclusion eagerly
ReplyDeleteAwesome, as expected. Really liked Discord as a villain. The only bad thing is that those 22 minutes flew away like 2!
ReplyDeleteANOTHER WEEK OF WAITING!?!?!?!?
ReplyDelete@MyBoyJ
ReplyDeleteomg I figured I only thought the same thing because I've been playing way too much Oblivion lately
Discord is SO Sheogorath
@Artsy Alraune
ReplyDeleteA Draconequus, which is pig-latin for "Dragonhorse."
@Artsy Alraune
ReplyDeleteA Draconequus, which is pig-latin for "Dragonhorse."
Not a bad episode overall, though I honestly have some qualms about the execution of the first half. The CMC scene could have easily been cut out to allow for the plot line of the Strange Weather and the Mane 6 going to canterlot to be better drawn out. It just seemed a tad rushed.
ReplyDeleteThat and Discord did nothing to Celestia. Maybe its because he's powerful enough he doesn't fear her, which would make sense if it took Celestia + Luna + Elements of Harmony to turn him to stone. Still, if didn't do anything to Celestia it would seem strange that she wouldn't try to do more to help, especially if Discord is as big of threat as he is made out to be.
