An another boring and unintersting chapter again , since it's clear now nobody will die (a dark fantasy with characters came back to life take note Berserk and co LOL) there wil be no suprise anymore Yakuto die again no problem he will be back as a demon , dead again come back as a humain with all his memories no problem easy peasy body, like Frey and the others didn't even need to try to make Yakuto remember what happened in hell really not even a little , no wonder why it's Mashima biggest flop among his works.
I blame it on the monthly release schedule, it's too slow for Mashima's writing style

Fairy Tail Zero was really good despite being a monthly manga although it's very short (13 chapters) and Hiro clearly has the full story already planned for it.

Alright, looks like this and the next couple chapters (probably half the darn year) are going to be lore heavy chapters and getting Hien and Setsuna back

This actually could be very interesting

So we've learned if you graduate Dead Rock Elfed just puts you in charge of a town in the Human world...I though he was supposed to give you your own kingdom or world. Really is a man of false promises isn't he?

But my initial theory is correct, 2026 will mainly focus on this flashback arc of Yakuto in the human world and how he got Hien and Setsuna back and how they became the Hero Party here.

Just hope it don't take all year to tell this arc

Looks like we actually have a game plan and some actual progression no, interesting to see if we get a timeskip or focus on some of the liberations

Interesting, sound similar to the origin of the world in Rave Master where the Raregroove ancestor reset the world.

Now we have a face to the true villain I guess

But skipping the gang liberating everything kinda makes me sad, could've had a whole arc on that, but I guess getting the gang back together made more sense.

Well at last we start the second arc finally

It looks like the manga is changing completly. Maybe for good, I didn't like the "kill everybody as fast as possibile" setup. New setup feels like ACTUAL manga.
But is hiatus really needed? The manga is montly, it's a long time to figure things out.

Looks like Mashima took the constructive criticism and decided to change things up
