[S8E14] A Matter of Principals

Day one of the two-part episode premiere...

So this is one of those episodes where we remember that Discord actually exists and he shows up only once in a blue moon. I am slightly disappointed with this episode, with all of the laugh gags and jokes they inserted they forgot all of the character development with the Discord. And in the end, it turns out it all of his fault in the first place. He went ahead and sent them on the wild goose chase so he could just take over the school and sabotage all of Starlight's efforts just because he doesn't want to follow Twilight's guidelines. For the most part, the only pony who can control him besides Fluttershy is Twilight, which is kind of ironic because Discord would just resist to the idea of following Twilight's plans.

I would really like to see for Discord to actually have guts to sabotage Spitfire's class with her actually present. What is the point to torture students when she is already left? Alright, I didn't actually think that we would actually hurt students, well maybe.

So I think if the viewer is willing to turn off their brains they might enjoy it.
