Erza SO totally beat edo-erza and took her outfit then pretended to haul in natsu/gray to use the cannon to shoot the crystal! Otherwise, why would she have known gray is the only way to get the key, or why would mashima not show her say anything to the two or where the other erza is? /obvioustheorycrafting =P

Lol. Obvious theory is obvious.

[sarutobi_sensei]

Lol I gotta say, Mashima-sensei really is doing the obvious.

I mean, lol.

But it was a pleasant surprise to see the chapter so soon.

Also, I was right, and so were many more of us, when we said that Gazzile would say: I'll make him my cat :D

Poor wendy being hit by the stones.

I just wish she would show them her power.

[Kravmaga]

Lol. Obvious theory is obvious.

Until someone pointed out the scar, yeah theory. Now, it might as well have already happened. On the other hand, we're running out of bad guys for the arc, damnit! I did't want evil erza to just be a minor anecdote in the series... At least I wanted to see how she beat edo erza. >.>

[sarutobi_sensei]

Hmm, that or we are being totally trolled by Mashima-sensei and it's actually Edo-Erza xD
[hr]
Tough if it was, she is way more powerful than anyone we've seen before on the manga. Going against Erza, then against Natsu and Gray? Wow.

but, imo it's kinda obvious.

[Kravmaga]

Hmm, that or we are being totally trolled by Mashima-sensei and it's actually Edo-Erza xD

Don't get my hopes up!
I totally wanted mashima to turn the nirvana arc into a magnificent clusterfuck of bad guys turning good and good guys turning bad, thus allowing badass but otherwise impossible matchups including the possibility of lucy versus the three stooges and a serious all out evil erza versus natsu... and despite all the possibilities, all that turned out from that was the whole hoteye thing.

If edo erza really does make another appearance, I'm guessing it'd be her showing up all beat up just in time in front of faust and the canon to go "yo yo, she ain't me, she's the earthland me!" but then earthland erza shooting anyway.

For those of you who want proof of which Erza is which, there you go, Happy Birthday, Merry Christmas, KISS MY ASS YOU PSYCHOTIC OLD FART! You know, that's your new name now, Fart, not Faust. WATCH NATSU LIGHT A FART ON FIRE!>V<.

P.S.: First link, just go to chapter 180, page 8, same site.

[Baka_Sousui]

Gajeel is hilarious! Even though he's been serious. It's just too comical. "I'm gonna make him my cat!" A black cat suits him.

[hitworm]

If she is Erza disguised as Edo Erza then it is too predictable.

My guess is she is really Edo Erza, and she has been pretended to be evil, or was controlled to be evil (e.g by the octopus guy), and now she returns to the good side.

And it is unreasonable to think she is able to beat BOTH Natsu and Gray so easily.

[MAX_COLA_POWER!]

Actually, if you see the last page, you can see that the scar THAT Erza has is on her right cheek. The scar that Edo-Erza has is in the middle of her face, between her eyes, ergo, it's Earthland Erza.

And it is unreasonable to think she is able to beat BOTH Natsu and Gray so easily.

If it's unreasonable for both Natsu and Gray to lose that easily than it's reasonable to presume either there was a hard fight and they lost or that they're acting alongside Erza. If it's reasonable than it's not predictable. Reasoning uses logic and proof; prediction is a hypothesis. You're contradicting yourself. Since both prediction and reason are available in this situation as compared to the "Gerard" of Wendy's flashback; there's not much to discuss since there is little room for other scenarios.

[p1xel]

Nice chapter,I didn`t except that development of the situation:)
So,how Erza defeated them both so easily?Maybe she gave them some drugs...
And I really don`t see the key on the panel with the guard.What`s that about?There were more keys?Or they took it from Gray?Maybe im blind...
So end of the arc is near now gazille has to finish his battle and gather all dragon slayers to destroy lachryma,i don`t think they will have more chances to use the cannon:P

[LoS]

So can someone tell me when exactly this offshoot arc is supposed to answer unresolved mysteries pertaining to the Earthland? Only thing I was actually looking forward to in this arc is that initially it was hyped with the anticipation of answering many of the mysterious queries we have in the Earthland.


So,how Erza defeated them both so easily?Maybe she gave them some

She couldn't, like everyone else above you has been saying this is a gimmick, a ploy by Earthland Erza to confuse the guards.

[The Closet Pervert]

Something about a little girl getting publically stoned along with a cute cat makes me sad. Really sad. I'm kinda glad this manga is able to produce feelings like this for me.

[Marche]

New chapter:

Otherwise, why would she have known gray is the only way to get the key, or why would mashima not show her say anything to the two or where the other erza is? /obvioustheorycrafting =P I agree with you, but for seem this real She asked to Natsu to burn (a little) her face, or perhaps that a mask of Ice created from Gray.
Also because is difficult to beat both Gray and Natsu in the same time, and she was already injured.
The only way to do this is if she take down them by surprise, but this isn't the case, look to her face.

Anyways I was sure than "Phantom Lily" was strong (while the other two were weak).
Very good Wendy, when she protect Charlie, while the other Exile has bastard.
Anyways I think that the queen will intervene and stop this, because I think than Charlie is really queen's son.
Funny when that little girl touch Lucy's boobs and say than that are huge.

[Kaz-Ku]

hahah i was planning to say the same thing as everyone else about the scars..;_________; guess im too late.
I hope mashima will do something suprising cause its wayyy to obivious right now..xp

[goldb]

I'm kinda thinking from this guy (http://static3.mangastream.com/manga/3/83663107/04.png)'s reaction that the Exceeds are being misled and that their Queen isn't some almighty figure like they think. I think that's why Panther Lily left the Kingdom. It's turning out to be a good fight between him and Gazille.

I really hope that the Erza in this chapter is our Erza in disguise in order to get through the door.

[Gats]

By seeing her shape, it seems that Erza is the only one who met a real opponent in this arc for now.
Anyway seems that the queen is really the real power of the Exceed.

Not a great chapter, everything seems too obvious for now.

[Sollum]

Gosh, i just hate moments when powerful dudes are being toyed with...

C'mon Wendy! You are DRAONG SLAYER, smash those fools or something!

[Zatono]

As others have pointed out, these images are basic proof of it being our Erza. Mashima thought we wouldn't notice xD
http://mangastream.com/read/fairy_tail/83663107/21

http://mangastream.com/read/fairy_tail/105/9

I hope Panther doesn't come back as a big ass cat, but rather a small one like Happy, but can transform from time to time to save Gazille when he's getting his ass kicked.

[Nagumo]

I hope Panther doesn't come back as a big ass cat, but rather a small one like Happy, but can transform from time to time to save Gazille when he's getting his ass kicked.
Yeah, I could live with that. The other alternative is that he doesn't come back as Gazille's cat at all, but as a regular member of FT. This could lead to a long-running gag of Gazille fighting and trying to subdue Lily to make him his cat.

Which would, of course, contain some homoerotic subtext -_-.

[BigCamaro]

I guess youre excluding panther lily and Gazille since their fight is still going on. IMO Gazille shouldnt be able to win this fight unless he levels up and pulls a crouching tiger hidden dragon out the hat like Natsu did last fight. But his description of earthland and how theres guys way more powerful than him there like Luxus, Mistgun, and Gildartz will be enough to convince Lily to go there wanting to fight them.

I like the running gag idea. And yeah Wendy needs to send them all flying. Instead of acting helpless getting stoned.

[Unlucky Boy]

While everyone's busy discussing about Erza, I'm more interested by the queen of the Exceed. From what Panther lily said (fake country), and Nadi's reaction to what Wendy told the cats (look how terrified he is), I'm starting to think that the queen is long dead.

The Exceed dont want to let the human know about her death so they'll keep worpship and fear them, she was the only one with magic great enough to control the humans. Panther lily probably knew about that and couldnt stand to lie. He probably wanted them to tell the humans and live in peace with them but the others like Nadi and Nichiya wanted to keep it a secret and keep rulling over the humans even without their queen.

I wont be surprised if the depletion of magic in Edoras is due to the queen's death, and that there is some way to fix things by finding someone capeable of being a new queen (Charle).

The queen dead no,impossible after the mission of Charle and Happy the queen wanted to see them..

[Nagumo]

The queen dead no,impossible after the mission of Charle and Happy the queen wanted to see them..
I still think the Queen will end up being Ultear.

[Skrymir]

Wouldn't it be fun if Erza added the 10 Commandments to her many Ex-Quip?

Pretty much thought of the same, but from a slightly different angle. Copy/Paste from the several sites I've said this already:

See how that long-faced cat seems to get all nervous when Wendy informs them of Fausts's imminent attack? There's a possibility that the Exceed, Shagotte, and Extalia in general aren't all that powerful, that they merely have the illusion of power, which they use to keep humans in control. Pantherlily calling Extalia a "fake country" hints towards this a bit. Heck, there's even a possibility that the Queen doesn't exist, that she's just a created icon to represent their fake power.

Pantherlily probably found out about this, how the Exceed use the illusion of power as a means to control humans and whatnot, and decided to leave Extalia to aid humans.

At any rate, next time we see Pantherlily we'll have a flashback clearing things up, and it will ultimately conclude in that he "follows the strong" or something along those lines, just to make him following Gazille more credible.

Then again, when it comes to predicting Mashima, I tend to overthink things, so who knows. (End Copy/Paste)

You do make a good point on the depletion of magic in Edoras, though. But Charle becoming the next Queen... I don't know. It could be if she was actually blood-related to the (Assumed dead) Queen. But Charle becoming the new Queen would mean she stays in Edoras, and along her, Wendy. And we don't want that, do we?

[kkck]

Wouldn't it be fun if Erza added the 10 Commandments to her many Ex-Quip?

I think that'd be a tad much lol. Combining such a weapon with her armor would make her too overwhelming. She does not need such a weapon though, her armor already functions in basically the same way.

[Nagumo]

While her armors function in the same way, we haven't seen any special weapons from her (though she does have hundreds of swords at her disposal). If the effects stack (e.g. Flight Armor + Silfarion) then we could see some truly impressive powerups.

Well you do realize that Erza's scar is from top to bottom and the scar we see on Edo-Erza is from top to bottom but mirrors the other right?

I mean, I want it to be erza, but there has to be something wrong with the obviousness.


Wouldn't it be fun if Erza added the 10 Commandments to her many Ex-Quip?
well it would certainly work, but imo it won't be added.

[WhatWhatinthebutt]

No way Edo-Ezra beat Natsu with just the 10 Commandments.... :notrust

[sarutobi_sensei]

I know that's it's really far-fetched, but still, it's possible that she did something to paralyze them.

[BlackHair]

So Gray and Natsu lost to a already beaten Erza? My prediction, which I assume everyone already did: That's our Erza in disguise and everything is a setup. I assume there is some kind of machine needed for the dragon canon. The key is just the activator. To get to the machine, they made that setup, since its way easier to get pass all the security and without causing a ruckus.

Gazelles future cat calling cat island a fake country, bothers me actually. Maybe there is no queen at all? Or died, ill w/e?

I'm just waiting till Master and Gildartz are out of that Lackrysma, or whatever it is called.

[wooticus]

of course it's erza in disguise.. this is somehow obvious.

natsu just doesn't get beaten OFF SCREEN. it's like next chapter of naruto shows the world in destruction "oh well by the way, kyuubi went crazy"

[Evil3ye]

No way earthland Ezra lost like that. That's her in a new armer to fool the guards... obvious cliffhanger is obvious ._ .

I'm a little disappointed in the fact that the Ezra vs Erza fight ended offpanel though. I found this one was the best in this arc so far.

I had also high hopes in the Gazille vs Lily one, but this seems to turn into a lol-fight. However I must confess the idea that Gazille convinces Lily to come with him is not that odd, and I actually would like it. He seems to be the best designed character from the royal toptier, apart from Erza, and the comment about discarding his old home screams for -flashback-.

Yeah, I'd pretty much say Lily is gonna be the Lluvia of this arc ;J

[yonjuushichi]

yeah, that erza is our erza, no doubt about it. they're gonna ambush the king and make him eat his own socks ;P
btw. how would you imagine gray and natsu give up just like that? to edolas erza? huh? :P they would definitely put up a good fight :P

[Arrogance]

Hahaha. "I like him. I'm gonna make him my cat!" That was funny. Overall a really good chapter. Did Erza really lose? Holy Crap. Maybe there is a chance the real Erza won and is going in undercover as the Edoras Erza in order to infiltrate the kings chamber. It makes sense too because the real Erza is the only one who could take out Natsu and Gray so fast and easily. If I am wrong and thats not the case then DAMN I can't believe Erza lost.

[ca12nag3]

id say only 1 option, thats the real Erza, since we dont see the end of the Erza vs Erza and not how she beats Gray + Natsu. Even if that was the other one she wouldnt win easily from them both since their combined strength might be far above Erzas (no matter wich one).

[Arrogance]

Thats true we didn't see her take out Natsu and Gray so it could all be one big act. I was originally thinking that she did knock them out and that it would work anyway because its not like Natsu would willingly act unconscious. He's more like I'm just gonna burst in there and mess everyone up badly. So my original thoughts were that Erza actually did knock them out and didn't tell them it was the real her, otherwise her plan of going undercover wouldn't have worked.

[kkck]

That is not edo erza.... The scar does not fit and she does not have her spear with her. Why would edo erza not have her weapon with her?

[susanoo13]

Wouldn't a better twist would be if it wasn't edo Erza or normal Erza at all but be Mirajane and thus the battle doesn't end off panel?

Maybe Gazzile freed her along with Erza and Gray but she didn't find the party yet

[senewe]

If Lily will really be gajael's cat, then I'm sure that we will see a fact that the cat can transform, like Lily did. and if happy can transform, then we will see avatar here..

[ca12nag3]

Well his disloyalty towards Extalia has to come from somewhere. So what if hes cursed by (looking) manlike, as in huge cat. A punishment by the queen for something.

What bugs me is the gap here (ill explain)

Charle who was back on mission and busted out of there was exiled, fallen angel. So she has enough reason to hate the place.
Yet Lilly is with the humans , who they see as inferior + now the humans revolted hes still with them. So he isnt just a ambassador or something.

[KOrto]

I d'ont think this is the end of the battle Edo erza/Erza because,in all arcs we have a double page for her when she defeated antagonist so d'ont think this is the end,everyone said the battle against edo-e is over but do really belive that,there is something wrong we all wanted that battle,even that little shit byro was shown when he was defeated.

[Arrogance]

Thats possible. Maybe she didn't completely beat her but just incapacitated her for a while. Maybe thats how we are going to find out the real Erza is in disguise. We will see Edo-Erza running into the kings chambers all beat up yelling that shes an impostor and then all hell breaks loss in the kings chamber.

[BetaRuler]

But wait,,, the fake erza will be naked right =D? *gets bricked* XD

I'm glad others found it easy to spot she's our Erza too, and Gray and Natsu probably found out and are pretending to be beat up. I wonder why she didn't take Lucy and the other girl with too... Or are 4 ppl too much to drag

Loved Gazilles fight XD still obsessed with getting a cat partner! I hope that cat becomes a downsized chibi cat too.

I still personally think that she did in fact knock out Natsu and Gray because they aren't the type to act unconscious. Natsu is just dying to run in and start setting everything on fire in his sight. So I feel that she knocked them out in order to bring them with her otherwise they would ruin her plan. Plus it makes sense cause who else other than Erza can actually knock out Gray and Natsu that easily? You do bring up a good point about Lucy being left behind though. Maybe shes still under the octopus legs :XD.

[kkck]

If lily will turn out to be gazille's cat, then I don't think he should remain as large as he is.... I think he'd have to somehow shink to fit with charle and happy. Anyone else surprised at how fast and randomly lily got into the fight? I don't think he should stand a chance against gazille with only brute force though. Iron scales, breath and blades should overwhelm him. I think he will show one last trick before gazille defeats him. He might even show some earthland-ish magic considering as an exceed of sorts he should have magic inside of him.

[iamtenninja]

That's the thing about Pantherlily; he doesn't fit in with the rest of the Exceed. I'm quite content with Lily staying the same size and partnering up with Gazille though I would love to see more scenes of Gazille and Lily just beating the snot out of each other.

Lol, just wait. He's gonna sprout a pair of wings and he's gonna start flying! But it will be comical because they willl be the size of a regular exceed's wings so they will be a bit small for him :XD.

[ndulzky]

I agree with the theory that that was our Earthland Erza in disguise.
While it would be very predictable, it would also be really odd if the fight scenes were skipped for nothing... and I did hope that the Erza vs Erza part would be shown...

A couple people mentioned about Lucy not being dragged by Erza. I thought about that too... maybe she'll be part of the "surprise attack plan" or something so she's hiding right now? And about Natsu and Gray not being the type of ppl who would want to act unconscious... well, in some parts of the manga they were shown to be afraid of Erza, like when Erza was first introduced, I think Natsu and Gray acted all kind and friendly towards each other while in fact they were going to fight, right? So maybe they do listen to Erza once in a while... if they think they can get a good fight afterwards? ;p

I also like the theory about the Queen actually being dead and that caused the depletion of magic... I didn't think about that before, but now it kind of makes sense since the Queen has never made any appearance before. It ties up with Pantherlily's comment about the fake country too.

I could already picture Pantherlily joining FT, Gazille keeps claiming that Pantherlily's his cat while Pantherlily keeps denying. It's gonna be really cute! :D
I read Rave a long time ago... I don't remember much details, but I do remember that as the story went on, more and more people joined the gang. I'm seeing FT going the same direction as that.

Well I think another reason why we may not have seen the queen is because her Earthland counterpart could be someone and something shocking. If anything if it really is something that shocking then us seeing her is being held off for a while until the most optimal moment. Of course I'm just speculating here and there may be no particular reason at all for us not seeing the queen yet.

[iamtenninja]

No I just didn't notice the wings......sorry bout that :sweat. So they really were that small huh? lol. As far as Earthlandish magic goes though I'm not expecting anything else. I see the wings being as far as he goes. I guess he's just putting up a good fight because he is just that strong for an exceed, even for mages/humans for that matter.

I agree with you... and when you mention "something shocking", my head pops up with "Lucy's mother!" Lol... That seems a bit farfetched, but if it's true, then this arc will turn into something different altogether...:p

By the way... Edo-FT gang has yet to make their re-appearance! I've been waiting for them to show up!

Yea, thats something which is inevitable. I don't know what Edo-Lucy is specifically going to do to get them to help out though. Maybe the opportunity of getting back at the king and fairy hunters I guess. If anything she will just be inspired by the will of the earthland crew and will use that as motivation for herself to get the Edo-FT on board with fighting.

[Unlucky Boy]

Well it is pretty obvious now that Panther lily will come to earthland and join FT at the end of this arc, but there are others that make me wonder.

Do you think Coco for example will come with him? she seems connected to him in some way... though there's already a fast running mage in FT (Jet)

[monkey D luffy]

actually i cant really see the edo-FT joining this fight. i dont think the news about a revolt withing the castle travel as fast as we would like. and unless the edo-FT hears what happenes there they wont show up.
i think that the after party will feature both guilds, not before.

[iamtenninja]

I don't see Edo-FT joining the fight simply because there's no one left to fight.

[monkey D luffy]

lol good point. didnt thought about that. there is always the king but thats natsu battle. or erza's. both were finished kinda off screen so mashima owes us

[Gats]

I don't see Edo-FT joining the fight simply because there's no one left to fight.

They'll obviously join the fight, otherwise I don't see the point to show Edo-Lucy looking for them.
They'll probably take care of the human army or a new threat or something like that.
Maybe Natsu/Gray/Erza will have some trouble with the king for a random reason and the Edo-FT will be the ones who would succeed to use correctly the dragon weapon with Gray's key.

Anyway, I don't see them coming after the battle, maybe at the very end but not after.

As others have pointed out, these images are basic proof of it being our Erza. Mashima thought we wouldn't notice xD

I hope Panther doesn't come back as a big ass cat, but rather a small one like Happy, but can transform from time to time to save Gazille when he's getting his ass kicked.I have forgot this.
With your post we can say than that is our Erza.

Psh, deciding which Gerard was which in Wendy's flashback was a harder mystery than this. I suppose we're used to it by now

Haha I remember that debate. It was pretty damn entertaining since Mashima actually had an artist error which threw everyone off, and caused a large part of the debate in the first place.

I don't think this one(Erza or Erza) is supposed to be a too much of a mystery. I really wanna see the Queen now, I hope her personality matches her title.

I remember guessing right away that it was Mystogan in Wendy's flashback; the timing to me was off since Gerard was at the Tower with Erza from the looks of it. This was a great and enjoyable debate while it lasted. Which artist error are you referring anyways? The one where Mashima decided to throw in a staff which obviously pointed to Mystogan or the removal of said staff to cover up the blatant evidence of Mystogan?

[Zatono]

It's this page, where Mystogan's tattoo is shaped differently then everywhere else, and it was used in the debate on which person was w/ Wendy.

but now we know that it was mistgun with wendy after all but I'm still confuse about that...Anyway on topic, I knew Gazille would try to make lilly his cat it's so obvious but now is the question, will Lilly join Gazille and why should he?

[iamtenninja]

Atm, I'd say because Gazille's trying to domesticate him via punching his skull in.

[Sollum]

Lol. Obvious theory is obvious.

Umm, dont you think that it was done intentionally, so that people would think its obvious?

How many people out there still remember that Medicine gave them power to use magic, what if that medicine stops working simultaneously.

You mean that medicine that allowed the D.Slayers to use magic? If that stops walking, they're fudged.

Well it's the medicine that allows Erza and Gray to use their magic as well but indeed if it stops "walking"; they're all doomed.

if it's the real erza and erza would have to play the role of edo-erza and fought natsu and gray, then she would have had to use her powers. she'd have to ex-quip meaning natsu and gray would know that it was erza and they'd have to play along. .. my guess they know it's erza and she told them of her evil scheme and that they didn't have to go triple way match. ..cause natsu x gray are a hard to beat combo.

i wish we get a nice surprise like last week. i am totally willing to get another quick released chapter. although its really predictable this arc is getting better in my eyes. at least there are some other ways to win besides kicking everyone's arses. and we are learning new secrets. i am not so disappointed about this arc anymore

You know what I meant :D, I meant working ¬¬

A quick note on King Faust, seeing as he is the king do you think his magical staff makes him all powerful or do you think it's just a precaution as he'd never expect anyone to defeat his royal aermy??

Is there a chapter this week? I haven't even seen any spoilers.

i don't think there ever are spoilers for fairy tail. Not sure whether there actually aren't any or people in this forum simply don't bother to look for them though.
