Holy cow this was something I wanted to make

@Hero Chaos Chao, is it okay if you could put this thread on hold for like nine, or even six months; although I'd prefer the former the latter would be something I'd thank you for too? This was one of the four threads I was planning to make as a 100% chance actually, but that's good that you're making it, but I'm literally right on the verge of seeing each of these episodes and want to play with actual experience on watching them.
 
Sure, that's fine. I'll be happy with waiting until than.

I thank you for waiting, but you mean nine months, right? Nine months is what I'd much prefer, even though six months is probably something I could probably make do with just that I have a lot of schoolwork
 
Yes. I'm sure I can manage waiting for nine months, since I also haven't seen any of the episodes at all and I don't want to make the mistake of eliminating a good episode way too early like I did last time.

Yeah you should see the episodes before you eliminate them. I might be living in a glass house there considering I haven't seen/seen all of A Matter of Principals, but the clips I've seen of it don't seem good as they mostly just consist of Discord being out of character and mean, plus I might not ever have eliminated something first in a KO a Character until this.
 
Toadettefan and I have decided that this thread would be better starting at latest on July 25, 2023.
 
Toadettefan and I have agreed on a third extension proposed by her, to extend the date the thread will reopen to October 25th, 2023. As we're both on Season 9 right now, this will give us more time to finish it
 
Because both Toadettefan and I have seen all the episodes on the list, we have agreed on moving the thread earlier, to August 10th.
 
Closing in on the thread with 13 days until it reopens. Toadettefan and I have agreed on a rule that one needs to have watched an episode in the thread to eliminate it.
 
Alright thread is back after a year. Might be easily my least favorite episode list out of the five MLP Friendship is Magic episode KOACs, but let's get to it; I'm still excited for the thread as there are still some good episodes here, with the episode I want to win still being fantastic.

And the episode I will give last place is exactly the same as before completing any of the episodes. Which is no unnoticeable feat considering I dislike a third of the list, but how much of a bully Discord is warrants it. He physically endangers and nearly kills students repeatedly even when asked to stop, and refuses to make amends for it. With the episode having an abusive moral that you should back down to a bully and apologize for leaving them out, with Starlight being villainized for trying to protect the students by banishing Discord. Discord getting almost rewarded for his actions is just completely broken. Out of character problems tend to be amplified for me when affecting my favorite character in fiction, and Matter of Principals is the absolute worst cartoon episode I've seen in this regard.

Good my b3 of the two seasons is the b3 of the thread, though I'd switch Yakity-Sax's and Non-Compete Clause's places maybe

NCC is just so derivative plus argument humor is obnoxious to me though it's more objectively than subjectively why I place it so low

Daring Doubt just feels like it wants to smear Daring's legacy so it's next. The quite bad S9 episodes are shoed in next to Horse Shoe-In
