Good god, that content page picture. Despite people's thoughts on Gruvia, that's kinda steamy.

Special mission: Let's elusidate FT's secrets!
In Magnolia's cafe
Lucy: Wow!, I've got a feeling, that it's been a while since last corner.
Mirajane: You're right, I thought it was over long time ago.
L: As always we have many quips and contradict points, but isn't it a problem for author to answer it all?
M: You may be right, but let's look at the questions:

Q1: What is the connection between Irene and Erza?
L: It will be revealed soon.
M: But everyone are curious, aren't they?
L: I think there might be people, who are predicting the answer. The truth is...
M: Lucy! Don't make spoilers!
L: Understood.
M: The truth is...
L: Mira!, you can't make spoilers yourself too!
M: But maybe it's not so much of a spoiler.
L: If it would catch an attention, it will be quite big spoiler... No, it's the worst spoiler!
M: One thing I can say is, that Irene's story have a lot to do with the main story.
L: I hope you'll like it!
M: Well then, let's see another question.

Q2: Lucy's Star Dresses and Erza's armours have many similarities, aren't they?
L: ..............
M: I think so.
L: Please, don't say it!
M: So are there any differences?
L: Of course. Erza's magic let her change armours, which are hiden in other dimension, in the matter of seconds.
M: And yours?
L: I'm summoning the clothes, in which the power of my Celestials Spirits is closed.
M: .................
L: Did I just make a hit to Erza's magic? :cry
M: So it is the same indeed.

Q3: Will Chelia get her magc back? Please, give it back to her.
L: It was so sad...
M: Yes, she gave up on her future in order to protect Wendy.
L: But I want to believe she will get it back one day!
M: Moreover, people can't use magic since they were born, so maybe she will be learning it again little by little...
L: I'm sure you can do it! Do your best for Wendy's sake too, Chelia!

Q4: What happened with Ichiya after Universe One?
M: Do you want to know?
L: Well... Why not...
M: After Universe One, Ichiya was thrown into some residence.
L: What?!
M: He fell in love at first sight with beautiful girl who he met there and now they're getting along while watching DVD and having fun.
L: But we're in the middle of war!!
M: He keeps saying "This tea is beautiful perfume".
L: Sounds like him...
M: That's how I imagined it.
L: I regret I asked...
"Personaly, I'm in the group of fans, who don't like to see their favourite manga characters stand against eachother, but because of this set up of development, all Natsu and Gray's fans might be angry. I'm drawing this, because I believe, future development will be interesting, but I'm anxious, how readers are reflecting on it. I don't want to disappoint people, who are reading my manga for so long, that's why I'm doing my best and try to continue my story to be entertaining.

Volumes 58 and 59 were published month by month and because OVAs were added to both, I had to draw 2 covers for each. Everytime, when the volume is about to being published, the pace of work changes and I'm very busy, but this time it was 2 volumes month by month, so it was even worse. Besides, this time there are 4 additional pages of manga added to 9 OVA (my schedule became really tight). *I don't understand last sentence... seriously, wtf? But it seems, that it's nothing important, maybe I'll decipher it later :p*

I was happy to reach 50th volume, and yet we're getting close to 60th... I am surprised myself."

I also like how we see Juvia and Lucy on the sides, because they were the indirect reasons for that fight.

That Gruvia just smells Rihanna's S&M... Mashima why...............

The inner cover is so cute. I've always liked the parallels between Gray/Natsu and Lucy/Juvia.

Guys sorry for bringing back the 50th chapter but I noticed that nobody talked about its limited edition. I had it for 10 euros in Paris this September. It has a blue cover and a special gift : 50 collection cards of different characters. Here are some of them (sorry for the bad quality / phone pics. I'll scan all the cards for you)






Some cards are great (You don't expect to see some characters in particular situations (ex: Mald Gheel Tartaros)

Thank you very much the translation

We had time without the section of Mira and Lucy, and well have reason in something, Chelia lost its magic but we forgot that there were humans without magic that could learn magic to an age already adult like Preach or Yuri

Even if Chelia starts to re-learn magic (which I think is fine), I don't think she'll ever be a God Slayer again. That's probably what the Q and A means.

So I guess Laxus's lightning magic either comes dragon larcima or Laxus learned lightning magic.

Since Hiro confirmed in the Q and A that no one is can use magic when their born. Where did Laxus learn the red lightning and did someone teach Laxus the red lightning or did Laxus learn the red lightning himself?

I guess Makarov taught him regular lightning magic.

Laxus had a huge magical potential which he inherited from Makarov.

Ivan was just a dick who thought that Laxus was weak so he implanted Dragon Lacrima inside his body.

Red Lightning is an asspull.

Makarov would be the likely person to teach Laxus lightning magic. Ivan is a dick no arrangements there and sometimes people forget Ivan is still alive. I think the Red Lightning would be less of an asspull if someone taught it to Laxus and seeing what Hiro said in the Q and A that seems like a likely possibly.

Still wonder if there's a side effect to learning God slayer magic, as opposed to dragon or devil. Sherria learning a new magic or something a substitute to it is intriguing, don't think it should be gs magic though

I think that Chelia could learn to use some new magic or use magical objects, that would be logical, using the method of the Edoras who, having no magic in their bodies, used magical objects.

That's what I think would be the best option for her and the least problems she would cause with the Haters.

Of options there are thousands, so we could get some more choice to everyone's taste.

Here we have information about FT guild, then info about those six and "story so far".
Erza is called Titania and she summons her weapons and armors from other dimension.
Lucy is Celestial Mage and after joining FT she had many adventures and fights alongside Natsu.
Natsu is Fire Dragon Slayer, who gets carried away easily, but cares about his friends more than anyone. He died once, and was resurected by his older brother Zeref. Right now he's in coma because of abnormal phenomenon inside his body.

Spriggan 12 - powerful magicians at Zeref's service.
Irene, alias "Scarlet Despair", extremly powerful magician, user of One Universe, magic capable of influence whole continent.
Brandish can change mass of objects, make them bigger or smaller. After Natsu and others saved her life, her heart goes out to them.
Zeref, the strongest Black Magician and ruler of Alvarez Empire. Creator of many "Books of Demons", he gave birth to villainous monsters. He's grieving for his immortal body and is looking for someone, who can kill him.

Story so far is about recent development - Sting defeated Larcade, Erza is struggling against Irene, but even with Wendy's enchantments' help, she can't even scratch the opponent. Irene reveals, that she's Erza's mother.

Nothing new, but Brandish part is interesting, I wonder about her future development :)
