The 7 Year Time Skip Thread

Quantized · Oct 2, 2011

Aight, so we just got a 7 years time skip ahead into the future of the Fairy Tail universe smashed in our faces, quite literally, for the better or the worse, this thread is to question, why 7 years?
It could turn out rather good or it could turn out for the worse, but I think we can all agree on, this was pretty sudden and unexpected.

So a big question remain, will which now follows be just as unpredictable...? What is there to come now when the scene tables in the manga has been cleaned, what possible crazy ideas could be realized in this universe of Fairy Tail when anything could have happened in these 7 years...?
Crazy could be good, I for one is thirsty for something unoriginal from the manga world, are you..?
What purpose is there to 7 years...? Could it be to prepare a long term manga from unexpected manga success...?

Side track: Is the girl we see here a Fairy..?

or is she possibly Grandine (Wendy's mother dragon...?) or could she be something else entirely...? Did she protect them..?

Anything related to the 7 years, the magic number, your thoughts...?
