And that’s a bad thing? The Dazzlings, as far as villains go, were kind of meh at any rate. They never struck me as ‘EVIL’. Jerks, sure, but they didn’t feel like they would take the extra effort to kick a puppy.
 
OK, maybe Aria.
 
The Dazzlings are lesser villains, which makes them the best candidates for a ‘lighter’ story. Also, we’ve only ever seen them fight with music, how ELSE did you expect to see this showdown going?

…There’s a Sharknado 2?

I knew many of us would be disappointed over that. :p

@wildrook  
“Yu Mo Gui Gwai Fai Di Zao” could have become the #1 hit on the Equestrian charts after this if Star Swirl had won.

@LuminoZero  
Because the previous two issues of Fiendship is Magic took their subject matter seriously - this one doesn’t look like it does.

Uncle Chan’s rolling in his grave…or I felt his ashes turn…I don’t know how…

@Evowizard25  
Maybe it’s some variation on “Only magic can defeat magic”?

@wildrook  
I know, right? Definitely should have channeled Ice Cube.
 
You are now about to witness the strength of wizard knowledge
 
Straight outta Canterlot, crazy motherf—er named Star Swirl  
From the gang called Wizardz With Attitudes  
When I’m called off, I cast a spell off  
Cast the runes, and bodies are hauled off  
You too, pone, if ya f— with me

Everyone is hating this, but I honestly love it. It’s silly, campy and just overall goofy! It’s like watching Adam West Batman!
 
Do the people complaining recall how silly and goofy the show itself is? Lighten up.

Wait, do you have to battle Sirens in musical competitions? Are normal weapons not effective against them? So far, it seems, given this comic and the movie, that you can only harm a siren through music and musically inclined magic and such.
 
I’m just guessing really. It’s not really explained, only inferred.

This manages to be both incredibly goofy and downright hilarious. It kind of reminds me of the way I felt watching Sharknado 2, to be honest.
 
And yet weirdly I’m also getting the impression that the exile of the sirens had less to do with their magical manipulations of Equestria’s ponies and more simply that he couldn’t beat the Dazzlings in music, so off to another dimension with you.

…I’m sorry…why did Star Swirl the Bearded Channel Flava Flav?
 
FLAVA FLAV!!!

@Animegx43  
totally agree on that!

Well, now I know for sure this is the one Fiendship issue to skip…
 
Dear God almighty I hope they don’t put this kind of stupidity in the Nightmare Moon or Chrysalis books.

Starswirl took a few levels in bard but it wasn’t enough to pull off a countersong.

I’m so glad I skipped this one…

@soundtea  
Ah, “the SJW equation”

There’s a point where stuff gets too silly to be taken seriously at all.

So he banished them because he couldn’t beat them in a music competition?
 
What a sore loser.

by introducing new music styles, the sirens (and starswirl) have managed to sow enough arguments to power themselves indefinitely (which style is the best).

Yeah… no.
 
I know this is a kid’s comic, but this is just too out of place and overly silly. I was expecting a better story with badass Star Swirl :(

@kircher  
ahahahahah! xD

@Psyga315  

…Okay, yeah, I’m going to ignore this one.
