Damn... that's a hell of a list. :ajsleepy:

I see that pattern that most of the time if it’s characters that are part of a pair only one is services.

Also happy starlight is dead. Upset about trixie and coco. And I’m happy flash sentry is alive

At least Fluttershy AND Discord died, so neither one will go insane with anger. Noticed Prince Blueblood died. Did anyone even notice (or care)?

Kinda darkly humorous that the main antagonists(sans Cozy Glow) lived. Also damn, the only rulers left are Cadence, Twilight and Ember it seems. Thorax, Celestia, Luna, even Mayor Mare.

I'm wondering, in this fic is it all life period that was wiped out or just sapient life? It isn't plants in canon, mainly because of the shot at the end where Thanos is looking at the sunset, there's just a field of grass there completely untouched. There's also tons of trees as well. They only confirmed animals as being part of the snap, I don't think there was ever any reference to plants.

What about Garble? He's not exactly going to be missed, either.

5049748
Who? XD

Haha, no, he won't be missed. At least Garble was in more episodes than Blueblood and occasionally serves a purpose. Blueblood has zero relevance to anything at all. You could literally replace him with a potted plant in the Gala episode and Rarity would actually have had a better time.

man, applejack and flithy rich are alone,family wise

Do you think you'll make another story featuring the characters coming back to life after the events of Endgame?

5049781
Eh, we'll see. I'm off to watch it tomorrow evening.

5049789
Cool, hope you like it.

I think you managed to off every single one of Nicole Oliver's roles there in one list.

I feel bad for Princess Skystar and Terramar dude there entire family just died damn that's brutal

5049774
And Flim, but nobody really cares about him.

Equestria is in a bad position. Beyond losing a lot of ponies, including Luna and Celestia and three of the Mane Six, three major villains survived: Chrysalis, Tirek and Grogar. Things are going to get worse before they get better, if they ever do.

Part of what makes it so tragic is that, on top of being evil on an unspeakable scale, Thanos' plan is just wholly impractical. Even if there were some way to justify the mass slaughter ethically, it woudn't actually work. So, not only is this evil, but it's ineffective evil.

5049995
And the bigger problem is that Thanos is alien, wich mean his concept of good and evil are fundamentally different from ours. We are literally unable to judge him in any way because his mindset is completely different from ours.
It's called Blue and Orange morality.

Would it be possible to get this in colors that aren't identical to the colorblind?

At least lyra and bon bon went out together

I've never bought into the idea that someone having a different mindset means that we can't judge their actions as wrong. If someone is a psychopath and a sadist (in the literal medical sense) and they do not comprehend that tossing a baby off a bridge is wrong, we can still judge that action as wrong because, well, it is wrong. Thanos' lack of understanding doesn't absolve him.

Moreover, as I stated (and as the video better explains), even if we leave aside morality, his plan is totally impractical.

Poor Wallflower... So thoroughly forgotten that she was not even listed among the vanished or the survivors.

Poor Wallflower... So thoroughly forgotten that she was not even listed among the vanished or the survivors.

Um...who? :rainbowhuh:

Oh Faust... Poor AJ... She's all alone now...

Children shouldn't have to die before their parents.

You literally killed off all my favourite characters except Sunset Shimmer and Marble Pie.
(i.e. Sweetie Belle, Fluttershy, Starlight Gimmer, Coco Pommel, Coloratura, Gabby, Ocellus, Smolder, and Yona)

5050201
I was of the opinion that Thanos knew what he was doing was morally wrong but saw it as a necessary evil.

5050573
Entirely possible. Which just makes it worse.

5050327
Also, the entire Cake family minus Pound.

5050004
His own species called him a madman, so it has nothing to do with him being an alien

Ant-man should jump up to Than's ass then grow inside of it! thus saving the entire 50% percent death toll

5051061
What IS it with people wanting Ant-Man to go into Thanos' ass? Why not the nose or the ear?

5051063
ears, he's too thick skulled + ear boogers of course
nose, boogers and snots and whatnot

P A I N

Discord and Fluttershy were snapped, but Angel lives. Fuck you, thanos. I will END you.

5049848
Tirek: So, we just walk in and takeover? We win?
Chrysalis: Guess so.
Grogar: Well... That was... Really fuckin easy. Boring, but easy.

Is it the same for their human equivalents from EQG?

5051061
You seriously want Ant-Man hopping up Thanos’ Thanus?!

Give Professor Hulk the Ant-Man suit.

5052342
Sunset Shimmer is on the list of survivors so maybe she tries to get Princess Twilight to help her, only to find out the snap happened on both ends.

5050549
Yona is alive. Yona strongest Yak!

5052819
So she is; the rest of my statement still stands, though.

NO! NOT LUNA!!!!!!!! DAMN YOU THANOS!!!!!!!!!! YOU SHOULD HAVE TAKEN FLASH SENTRY OR SOMEONE NOT HER!!!!! AND YOU KILLED THE DOCTOR TOO? SOMEONE CALL THE AVENGERS!!!!!!!

kind of have a headcanon in this story that applejack and filthy rich bonded together over their lost families, married for business reasons, and have a young foal together

Why did you do applejacks dog

5104953
I just followed the coin.

what about the five girls from crystal prep, lemon zest, sugarcoat, sunny flare, indigo zap and sour sweet

So many snapped away:fluttercry: my poor heart :heart:

Wait... Grogar survived, but Discord didn't? You apparently did this before the finale. :rainbowlaugh:
