Fairy Tail 273 Discussion / 274 Predictions

[Mrlazsa]

they are related for sure...i mean before tenrou island who ever heard of sabertooth??then zeref comes back back and suddenly...best guild in fiore! something stinks

[Kurohitsugi]

I also hope that this Orga is a Thunder God Slayer wizard because this is giving a feeling of continuity besides the obvious awesomeness of the magic.

Jellal vs Jura. It's gonna be a great battle. Jellal can't use his meteor magic though, that could betray his true identity. If I had to bet in this match I would choose the draw. It's the most fair result, the perfect balance, both fighters keep their coolness and both Fairy Tail B and Lamia keep themselves relatively close to the top spots.

Nice chapter!
But still i can't believe no other giuld sensed that RT cheated This totally is a let down IMO .
Now about the matches from this chapter . I liked them especially Orga's battle and yeah here it is an opponent worthy of Laxus
I think in the end it will be a fight between the 2 of them just like Natsu and Zancrow's battle where it was fire vs. black fire . Now it will be Laxus who uses lightning magic and Orga who uses black lightning magic . I can't wait to see them clash

About the battle between Jellal and Jura , hmm i'll personally go with Jellal of course I mean i trust in Jellal's powers and seeing how much he wishes to repay his mistakes towards FT makes me trust in his victory. . Though i wonder what the name of the next chapter could refer to ...bad omen , i hope Jellal won't have to retreat or something 'cause that would suck and besides i had enough with Lucy losing like that

Pretty good chapter, am I the only one who hopes Orga isn't a thunder god slayer? Really want to see more powerful mages that don't use Lost Magic. Anyway wish the fights were a little longer since it seems that the contestants only play one game and fight once so we may not see too much more of their magic. Curious as to what War Cry's tear magic was suppose to do too.

Also glad that Sherry and Ren got together, alays thought they were a cute couple. Again wish we had seen more of their magic but what are you going to do. Can't wait to see Ichiya at his full strength since always thought he could kick ass if he was serious.

Gerard vs Jura should be epic though I wish it was the real Mystogan. Jura was always interesting to me so glad we get to see him against someone that can kick ass too.

Good chapter, of course the build up for the next chapter is the highlight of this chapter.

Oh man, I hope Raven Tail won't mess around with this match.

[liductan]

Nice, chapter.. I'm excited, I wonder who win! Of course I want jellal to win, but he can't show all his powers...
This match should either be draw or victory for jellal...

mashima is not a genius with characters, sometimes he gets too repetivie (think of how similar rave's characters are to fairy tail's characters)...anyway maybe sabertooth was able to come to lost magic like hades did, it is too soon to tell, we know nothing about this guild

Well, using similarly designed characters through manga is not that an unusual practice to say the least. Actually, most manga artists do so over and over again. In turn, it is rather weird that characters in the same manga have such similarities for no reason (think of rumiko takahashi, kubo, oda, togashi and so on....). I don't even think mashima is bad at making characters.

I don't think it will be a Draw. I think Jellal will win. I remember Jura referring to him self to be last rank in the top 10 if it comes to ranking about wizard saints title. The problem is Jellal can't show his face, and with this kind of battle he can't protect hims self from getting a hit. We seen Jura fights and we know for sure he's gonna lay some hits on Jellal.

Also I really agree with "lets hope Raven Tail don't interfere with this fight"


as for Mira opponent I think its gonna be the girl from Sabertooth.

One does not simply say that Mashima is bad in creating characters.

Not after all the characters he created through this series !!!

you're right fary tail as an astonishing number of characters and that may cause similarities but the main characters are like the main characters of rave copied in another universe (sound like edolas )...
anyway we obviously can't criticise mashima, this manga is still great anc capable of building incredible expectation like for this next fight

[ca12nag3]

Its quite possible Jura finds out he is Jelal during the fight either by ability or w/e reason but will not reveal this. Got to remember that FT are Juras long allies and if Jelal sides with FT Jura will conclude there is a good reason for it.

So i dont think that Jelals cover will be blown yet. Maybe a more respectfull relation between the 2 will come from this.

I just remembered this page in Chapter 165.(bottom right panel)
Ren and Sherry have been foreshadowed way back then

Oh, and the chapter was awesome. Only thing I didn't understand: what the heck was the tear magic supposed to do?

[exacta]

Chapter was uneventful until Jellal vs Jura was brought up. Mashima's sense of humor was really weird this chapter, and Orga's "fight" with War Cry was pretty boring. I would've liked to see War Cry actually do something(was interested in how "tears" was going to be a magic), then have it have no effect, then have Orga one-shot him. The title of the chapter couldn't have been more blunt. The way it was executed was boring...it's just cut to the next page and boom giant black lightning blast. Didn't really care about Ren's fight either.

To make people petty him I suppose. He got what he deserved tho. Not sure why that Sabertooth Dragon Slayer said he like his magic.

@mr.danly that made my day

I have a feeling that we may get some exposition on Gerard's power level and it being compared to Jura's. Jura said he was the weakest of the 10, but that was 7 years ago. So he may have gotten stronger and moved up in the rankings a bit. Hopefully Makarov can give us that exposition since he seems to be implied as the strongest (or second strongest, at least).
