No Discord in Season 7?


Conred

Recommended Posts

It would be strange if Discord was not in season 7 and not the movie with no explanation. I feel they should trap him in his chaos dimension in season 7 so it would explain why he can't help during the film. Unexplained absense would be odd but maybe they could somehow explain with it dialogue only?

I mean it would be weird for him to no longer be in the show as he had become a major recurring character, but than again he isn't a main character so I guess the show could survive without him, I suppose.

It's a good thing not having him. His character can do pretty much anything, so the storywriters can have an easier time writing episodes with villains.

 

Eh, let's be honest, there's been occasions where problem-solving characters have been {in}conveniently absent in the past.

 

But yeah, Discord plz. He's too fun to set aside for good.

I was thinking that maybe he will be abducted by a main villain in S7 premiere and it become the main story arc to rescue him? Finally some fluttercord development but from Fluttershy's point of view since she barely interacted with him, except off screen.

They can always "weaken" him or take away his powers for good. They didn't get rid of Celestia or Luna even if they are powerfull.

well, after season 4(Mayby time alone after the finale happened) or Season 5(Barely appeared at all) I probably could live with that, but after beeing a main hero in the season 6 finale?

 

Discord: He everypony, after saving your flanks, kinda, I just disappear, bye! *Poof* :umad:

BLASPHEMY.

 

Discord is one of the main reasons I got involved in MLP in the FIRST place... to think that he would have NO place in the upcoming season OR movie!?

 

Nope. Not gonna stand for it.

 

Mark my words, ponyites... wherever there is order and harmony, THERE WILL BE DISCORD!

 

... and if not? Well, I suppose the lot of you will get to see me cry. :(

Honestly, after how they used him in the season 6 finale, I would be disappointed by this. If they can somehow continue writing him more down to Earth and not as random, I would actually love his character more. I want to see his interactions with other characters more and less of his magic antics. If they omit him entirely out of this season, there would be no chances for that. :\

I really liked Discord in 'Return of Harmony', and he was pretty good in 'To Where and back Again' as well, but most of the single episodes he's been in were pretty average at best, and pretty bad at worst (I'm looking at you season 5 episodes).

 

It may be a bit of a shame to omit him entirely, but I'm not going to get upset about it.

Considering how they may still be working on it even after the premiere airs, there may be a chance, though voice acting is done even before animation, so it would have to be done early in the episode development, so I'm not sure.

I hope Discord is in S7. I always look forward to Discord episodes in the series. He always makes up some really funny moments in the episodes I enjoy. His character just really aids in making an episode fun and enjoyable. So, as said, I hope he is in Season 7.

In a way, this is kinda comical. Issue 50 of the IDW comic ended with Discord complaining about his lack of focus throughout the Chaos Theory arc in favor of a counterpart that wasn't really him, and now this happens.

tbf, I've been getting tired of Discord as of late, ever since his reformation. Maybe a season off will be a good breather

So you have gotten tired of him ever since his second appearance?

I guess I could've worded that better

 

I guess what I really meant was that I started losing interest in him since his reformation, and have gotten more tired of him the more he appeared

He may still yet be called in to record dialogue, yet this might also be a red herring of sorts. Like the rest of the voice cast, he's under a special contract that forbids him to talk about certain things until they become public, and revealing them would breach said contract resulting in unfortunate consequences.
