I like both covers, the Normal is simple but concise, the special has a cool couples atmosphere.

I imagine that for 60 we will see some group cover

Vol. 60 will probably have everyone involved in the Larcade fight and Natsu... perhaps even Zeref too.

Oooh I can totally feel the tension, nice job Mashima
I hope we can see a color version of either Cancer or Scorpio Stardress in the flip cover :XD
Which reminds me we haven't seen the official color of Gemini Stardress yet
I like the colors chose for the volume cover and the tension Mashima put into volume cover. Be nice to see what colors the Cancer, Scorpio, and Gemini Stardress are.

About FT Zero and Zera's appearance, about fake deaths (funny, he said, that in this volume it was Gajeel, but he's going to use fake deaths in the future and is affraid, that if some character will die for real, readers won't believe it :errr) and about meeting with fans in France.

Do you know what Hiro said about the fake deaths, Zera's appearance and Fairy Tail Zero in the afterword? I think when Hiro was talking about killing off characters off in the future I think he was talking about Makarov.

Hiro said, that chapter's titles contained counting down and when it comes to "0" Zera appeared, but there might be people, who didn't read FT Zero omakes, so they might not know, who is Zera. But even so, he wrote the story in the way, even they can enjoy it. And about fake deaths - he admited, that he repeat it again and again and he will do it in future too. This time it was Gajeel, and it seems, that it looked so credible, that many fans were sad. And he's worried, if readers would believe if someone will die for real :)

I bought the volume just because of Irene and mostly for her entrance and the fight with Acnologia (don't judge me :hmph). About the deaths, he said he was worried fans would stop trusting him (which is true :noworry)... and that makes me wonder: If he's aware of how divisive such a decision is, why did he take it?

I'm interested in seeing what the Vol. 58 afterword says in regards to this and what he'll say about Makarov in Vol. 59.

From what I remember afterwords in vol 58 was all about the FT exhibition, nothing about the contents of the volume or series itself.

Then perhaps he'll mention it again in Volume 59. I'm also wondering if he'll ever mention the development for the film ever again too. That seems to have vanished.

I guess we can expect more fake deaths this arc and in future arcs.

I wonder if the movie even still going to come out.

It was either cancelled or postponed... but in either case, wouldn't have heard some sort of announcement regarding this?

I hope that when Capricorn star dress will be revealed then Mashima will do Cover with all 10 star dress. That's would be cool. :nowei:3c

I think he mainly was talking about Juvia and Gajeel. I don't consider Mira to be a fake-death level as those two cause it was actually build up and flashbacks regarding those two. But hopefully that's all and done with, he can't expect even his most loyal fans to keep getting burnt with them and waste tears. For example, I felt for Erza and Mavis more than Makarov actually dying. Gajeel's I really wasn't blown on as much as Juvia's so hopefully that phase will never come back. So yeah, rip to them.

I also never saw Mira to be a fake death and I only saw Gajeel and Juvia as the only true fake deaths. Also I'm waiting Mashima to parallel Resha's fake death since Mashima has used almost all of the Resha parallels throughout the series and there's not that many Resha parallels left. The only Resha parallels left are Elie and Haru defeating Shakuma, Elie and Resha being the same person, Resha's fake death, Elie/Resha waking up and being attacked by SiegHart after being in suspended animation, the scene with SiegHart's skeleton, and Elie/Resha losing her memory again.

It's possible he may not use all of those. I can see him doing the memory thing with Natsu though.

In fact, he's kind of already taken the steps to get there.

:offtopic Anyway, we are starting to get off-topic with this thread. Our posts might get deleted.

Now that I think about it I can see Mashima paralleling Elie and Resha being the same person with Lucy and Anna. I can see Mashima doing that with Natsu. I guess Mashima could have Erza and Jellal defeat August after Erza defeats Irene since August is based off Shakuma. Who do you think Mashima will parallel Resha's fake death?

I made a tread a while ago about the Resha parallels Mashima made in the series. If you want we can discuss this there.
