Do you guys think the Seven Kin of Purgatory are stronger than the Oracion Seis?

I just feel like Oracion Seis actually put up a better fight against the three guilds. The Seven Kin were defeated so easily, the only ones that actually put up a good fight were Azuma and Rustyrose.

Not really, although i think Brain and Zancrow both gave Natsu a hard time, Zancrow made Natsu do something that was a bit more extreme than activating DF, and he got up after a nap like nothing happened only to be put down by Zeref, Lucy didnt even fight alone this time she needed natsu to win, BN killed them until Gil arrived, Ultear gave Natsu the time of his live (no pun intended) and Zeref too, not to mention her big fight with gray who could move after Racer but barely did after Ultear (did Wendy help him?) and hades is currently pwning, and erza was brought down to her feet even though she won Azuma gave quite a fight.

And Ft has gotten stronger than that time with OS so Im not sure to me they seem like very similar situations but the fights now are better, plus the 7 had the disadvantage of the tree and were outnumbered, if Hades came in they mightve won this though :/

Fairy Tail is doing pretty well, but that gap between 1st (One Piece) and 2nd (Naruto) is massive. Naruto is closer to 50th place than it is to 1st place.

What is this by the way, is it manga sales?

Mistgun was cool when he was misteryous! After we saw he had Gerard face, and after we learnt his history in Edolas arc, he lost his appeal!
Got to agree with this, Mistgun had a lot of potential, including plot twist and what not.. but he turned out to be a Wild card for one single arc.. and then to have Gerards face to boot..? *sad*

All the old timers seems to be decimated into weaker than they used to be, disappear or even possibly die.
It probably translates into that the current generation of Fairy Tail has to lift up the burden instead of relying on the old timers stronger members..

But to be quite honest, I'd rather see a good balance between the old timers and youngies who are growing stronger, than just having all the old farts decimated to oblivion (you know what I mean)..

So Laxus is the oldest who is actually growing in strength huh..?

I really can't agree with the discussion about mystogan. He was introduced as the mysterious type of guy who didn't want to get in contact with any other FT member. So the reader started to wonder what reasons he could have. The mystery was solved with him being from a parallel universe. His absence was explained through his mission to close anima and him hiding all the time was explained by him looking exactly like one of the 10 holy mages and a council member who later became a wanted criminal. In my opinion his character did a good job all in all by having his own sidestory and giving the Edolas Arc some depth and connection throughout the whole story.
He was a talented mage but his magic was based on illusions and maybe seals, so i guess he was the supported/defensive type. Over the whole story the most important thing he did was recovering makarovs magic and sending the lacrima back to earthland.
Overall he was just the mysterious guy, who always hid his past. I also like this kind of guys, but if they stay mysterious forever it would also suck because you'll never get to know about his secrets.
So i personally don't understand why so much people thinking of Mystogan having wasted his potential. Maybe some just don't like the edolas arc (i personally also don't).

Imho a good manga lives of the balance between solving mysteries and introducing new ones.

For example: We got the backstory of ultear explained. Right after that we got a new mystery by zeref's "acknologia".

In the case of mystogan his disapperance just opened new questions about the earthland jellal. like someone said before there is the question about his heritage with edolas jellal being the good prince as the son of an evil king. Him being shown in prison some chapters ago gave some major hint that he will play a major role again.

The disappointing thing is that he's just another Jellal and like ErosVp said, he was cool when he was mysterious but when we found out he was just another Jellal, he lost his potential and appeal . We always see Jellal every arc and that annoys me.

Would Erza using the seduction armor to beat Azuma be a better victory then the Power of Friendship. Also, Natsu not being able to get pass the barrier because he was 80 years old or a stone statue bugs the hell out of me.

Got this from Mangastream forums.

Got this from Mangastream forums.

What Hiro Mashima said in an interview :
Q.The current series you're working on is Fairy Tail; what was your inspiration to create that?
A.For Fairy Tail, my inspiration was basically just hanging out at a bar, partying with my friends ... that kind of atmosphere is what I wanted to capture.
Q.While working on Fairy Tail, do you think about what readers want to see, or are you motivated more by your own .interest in what happens next in the story?
A.I try to consider both, but you know, the readers take precedence. I really like to think of the fans and see what they would like to see.

People still haven't read that? That's from one of the interviews Mashima gave back in 2008 when he was at Comic-Con. Here's all four that I know of for those interested:

Mira has her strongest demon Take Over.
Elfman has the Beast.
But what about Lisanna? I hope she get a powerful angel form to be a different from Mirajane and Elfman.

Well, based on what we have seen, mira uses demons, elfman uses monsters and lissana uses animals. I don't think lisana will have an angel form, it would not be consistent with her use of animal takeovers. Perhaps her ultimate form will be a combination of many animals or something of the sort as no actual animals has power.

Re: Fairy Tail 253 Discussion / 254 Predictions

Those of you who can go to the New York Comic Con in a couple of weeks will be able to see Mashima-san himself--he's a guest of that convention. Fat chance he'll divulge anything at that convention on WHY he did this unusual plot twist, though. :notrust

Anyone has a clue on what this is? After all this chapters even with grimmoire heart gone, the black dragon trashing tenrou island and zeref appearing we have no clue of what this is. It kinda looks like the dragon might have used dragon breath there though.

I also don't see why we would need an explanation of the event. Mashima just made it happen in the manga, do we need a scientific essay on the matter? Events will make more sense as he writes on....

اhehehe..I have no clue maybe the hole was made by Natsu when gave Gerard the final punch ...last I remember Gerard was smashed into the ground hehehe...

About Grimore heart or what ever their name is...+ Ultear...I think they turned to be a joke after all don't you agree...all things they thought they knew about Zeref was not even close to be true...Zeref is not really that bad guy who wish destruction to everything, and he wasn't Sleep at all.

Fairy Tail Gets Film Next August.

Finally! Fairy tail film has been announced for next august!
I can totally see it even before this, considering how good the anime is doing in japan :D
Anyway,
The email newsletter for Kodansha's Comic Plus members revealed on Wednesday that a film adaptation of Hiro Mashima's Fairy Tail manga will open next August. More details will be provided in future postings of the newsletter.

The manga and the ongoing television anime follow the adventures of world's most notorious mage guild, Fairy Tail. In addition to the television series, three original anime DVDs have been bundled or will be bundled with the manga.

Del Rey published the 12th volume of the original manga in North America last September, and Kodansha resumed publishing the manga in English with the 13th volume this past February. Crunchyroll streams the television anime into several countries as it airs in Japan, and Funimation will release the first DVD/Blu-ray set in November.

I really look forward to it.
