Re: Lucy's purpose

Hopefully Lucy gets stronger in this arc somehow and shows if she has some relations with the dragons but I doubt it =/

Re: Lucy's purpose

The dragon thing is only a theory and there is 99.9% of probability it's not true.

Her only purpose is to get made fun of by Happy.

Re: Lucy's purpose

Other than be the 'new guy' and provide an insight to the world for us, I'm a bit confused as to her purpose. For a supposed main character, she doesn't have much to do with the overarching plot (search for the Dragons). I do think that there's a reason behind the way there's a Lucy mini-arc in between each major arc though. Maybe that is her overarching story, and/or it has to do with the Dragon hunt.

Re: Lucy's purpose

People tend to keep forgetting that Lucy's main purpose is telling us the story. Thus the reasons for her being the center point of side stories and such.

I suggest for those new to the thread... read the previous posts and you will have a better understanding.

Re: Lucy's purpose

Does anyone think that Lucy's mom might not even really be dead? Like did they ever mention how she died? What if she simply 'vanished' that day? I mean it's totally plausible to write off a missing person as dead, after all people go missing without finding a body all the time. It could explain why Lucy writes to her Mom as though she was still alive.

Re: Lucy's purpose

Lucy has to be in some way related to the dragons and by extension the main plot. Are you guys really telling me lucy's mom died exactly on the day the dragons disappeared, mashima made a point to show that and she is still not directly or indirectly connected to those events? Seriously, lucy has a moderately big role in the plot and most likely so does her dead mother.

Re: Lucy's purpose

Lucy is a big purpose...she narrates the story, she goes on missions with Natsu, her mother is somewhat connected to the disappearance of the dragons. I believe that her mother's "death"-if she even died- was the cause of the disappearance of the dragons since Igneel went to hiding and is trying to avoid humans (he said while talking to Wendy's dragon-sorry don't know name-) and plus why would they abandon their proteges-which i think to not hurt them since they like humans not like dark dragons(the one that attacked Gildhartz)? In general Lucy is one of the main characters of the series and probably will progress in the future.

Re: Lucy's purpose

I don't know if anyone has mentioned the fact that Lucy's blood appears to be special in some way, Angel fired that canon right at her and somehow the blood from her arm kind of redirected the attack.
It is obviously related to Lucy's mother, since her blood runs threw her veins since she is her daughter; just a random thought but maybe Layla was a Fairy or something 'cause she is definitely tied to the dragons in some way and I don't think she was 100% human.

Re: Lucy's purpose

I don't think it's related to the blood. The canon itself is a stellar spirit and probably has avoided Lucy on purpose

Re: Lucy's purpose

I agree. Caellum was being used by gemini who got a taste of lucy's feelings towards stellar spirits in general. I would think caellum did not want to attack lucy for the same reason gemini didn't.

Re: Lucy's purpose

I agree with the whole Caellum not attacking Lucy for the same reason Gemini did. When everyone there was like "How did it miss?" I was thinking well, duh, it's because Caellum didn't want to hit Lucy because it too realized how much she cares about the stellar spirits and so avoided her on purpose. Anyway anyone but me think Lucy's mom might not be dead?

Re: Lucy's purpose

I have a feeling that if Lucy is connected to the dragons, Zeref should know about it. I'm thinking that if he meets her, he may realize something (if Lucy does have a connection with the dragons) if that happens, I can see something major happening with the plot.

Re: Lucy's purpose

Honestly if Lucy has any connections to the dragons I doubt anyone's going to know about it. Because if she does have a connection I'm guessing it has to do with her lineage/blood, in which case they probably wouldn't realize it just by looking at her. It's also likely to be on her mom's side, which means her surname wouldn't provide any clues either. Although if Zeref actually realizes something that would be interesting.

Re: Lucy's purpose

All I know is, this S-class trial arc is going to provide some very interesting insights in to the future of Fairy Tail. Not only that, it's going to tell us some very good back story. Seems like we're going to learn more about Natsu finally.

I wouldn't be surprised if they all became S-class mages after this, if they all hold their own against Grimoire Heart, strongest dark guild. Like Gazille said, an S-class mage should be able to handle accidents.

It'd be a good opportunity for a future arc as well if they become S-class mages. Gildartz encountered The Black Dragon on his 100 year quest, something only possibly for S-class mages to undertake. We all know Natsu will do anything to find Igneel and if taking a dangerous quest to find another dragon who might know something is his only option at the time, I think he'll do it.

No less, I can't wait for our first encounter with a dragon.

Re: Lucy's purpose

Yup. And as for Gray, he'll probably start investigating and chase down Urtear along with Leon.

Re: Lucy's purpose

Warning : This message contains crazy ideas and warped logic, probably untrue.)

I personally believe that Lucy's mother is wherever the dragons are. And Ur, Gray's teacher, is also wherever the dragons are. I personally doubt Deliora's power. Seriously. Lullaby proved to be next to nothing for Erza+Gray+Natsu (not very good). Surely Ur is very much more powerful than that. I say that she never really used Iced Shell. I think that her "death" was a scam, like Lucy's mother's. Perhaps they both disappeared with the dragons on July 7, 777. although i do not think they are dragons, but dragon slayers? Perhaps. A nice ice dragon anybody?

Lucy is pretty much unhelpful, so i say she has a much more powerful form (I think Gray also has a lot more powerful form) which will somehow another be unleased when the need arises.

Re: Lucy's purpose

I agree with everyone on the dragon theory. Natsu and Lucy are both the main characters. The dragon arc is probably gonna be the last arc in the manga or maybe second to last. If this is the case, I can only assume Lucy will be tied to the plot in more ways than just as a companion of Natsu.

Re: Lucy's purpose

There is something fishy with Lucy, I mean in the Oracion seis arc, when she fought angel she was out of magic power. But when that guy poured inside her head the enchantment for whatever the name of that high tier spell was, she performed it unconsciously. So that means she still had enough magic to perfrom such a powerfull spell without realizing it.

Re: Lucy's purpose

knowing Mashima....

There is the possibility that Lucy is her mother. Something happened to her in the past during the dragon disappearing deal that caused her to lose her memory. Now I am not saying that Lucy gave birth to herself.... I just mean that her mother and she are one in the same.

Her Father may have a hand in cover up all that... protecting her from the powers that caused her amnesia in the first place.

But wait... you say that Lucy should be older then. Remember, this is a literal magic world.

So there could be a connection between that theory and why Zeref is still young.

Plus, could be some lost magic that Hades found... hence why he is more of a badass than a younger Makrov.
