That's a fair point, it's just that 99% of the shipping community justifies the shit writing with the pairings. Especially when the shipping community makes up 90% of the fairy tail fan base. Now every discussion about a recent chapter has people arguing over which characters are going to bang.
And that's where you're wrong. I highly doubt it's even Acnologia coming back at this point, probably just fucking Ichiya and Anna. If Acnologia does come back he'll just taste the "power of friendship" or "the guild's flame".
A war arc with no deaths for fairy tail whatsoever. "Oh ya, the war is over, let's go on another adventure!" No aftermath at all. Literally just smiles for fairy tail after a war they thought they couldn't win :yodawg
I get that Hiro wanted a "happy ending", but there are ways to do that even with character deaths. Happy ending doesn't necessarily mean no death in a fucking war arc lmao, you can still have a good satisfying story and get your "happy ending". Besides, I don't consider making all your long time...
What I've learned from Bleach and Fairy Tail, always read Seinen manga from now on. I can't keep expecting a satisfying story from a supposedly children's manga. With only 9 chapters remaining I'm done ranting, honestly time to just enjoy the ride at this point since all disappointments are...
I really don't like this mindset, that we who have been reading fairy tail for 3 years or more don't have the right to criticize the series when it obviously deserves it and lets us down. Hiro Mashima rushed the shit out of this chapter. Ichiya defeating Acnologia? Hello? Why are you defending...
Fairy tail had so much potential, Hiro had many good outcomes to this arc to work with, endless good possibilities that would've left people satisfied, yet he chooses one of the shittiest ways to end his 11 year series off. Whether or not this is his series, you can't justify him hyping us up...
Alas, the only ones that will be happy with the ending is the fanfiction writers and the shipping fanatics. How is the ending going to play out? 2-3 chapters for resolve, 1 for rebuilding, 2-3 for the ships and 2-3 for the epilogue.
