Well chapter is out on onemanga http://www.onemanga.com/Fairy_Tail/149/00/
Pretty good chapter. not bad at all.
Fairy Tail
-
-
OMG Cobra is a Dragon Slayer. What a Twist !, seriously Natsu fighting Dragon slayers with the same boring techniques didnt make it for me, and Natsu not thinking was just like Luffy not thinking…
-
- Err… I hate to be the one to make the comparison, yet again, but does this fight seem familiar to anyone?
- "YA HA HA. With my mantra/magic I can hear your inner voice. You can't even hit me!"
- "Gah, you hit me! How can this be?"
- "Whaaaat? You're attacking without thinking?
- Granted, One Piece wasn't the first series to ever do this, but given that it's Fairy Tail…
- Oracion Seis' names are confirmed as aliases. Thank god.
- DAMNIT, SCANLATORS. STOP. USING. BLAINE.
- We never got Racer or Angel's real names, so they're probably alive.
- Ah! Midnight is a girl! /shocked
- Arc Checklist
- #1 Gerard CHECK
- #2 New Dragonslayer CHECK
- #3 "Surprise" Dragonslayer CHECK
- I'm way past the point of being annoyed by new Dragon Slayers. I don't take it as a plot twist any more than I take the introduction of anyone else's magic. I think it's been established that Dragon Slayer magic is fairly common in the higher tiers, and we're going to see a lot of it. I suggest everyone gets over it, and embraces it, ASAP, because it's not going to stop happening. The Dragon Slayers are the only thread of an overlaying plot that exist is Fairy Tail. Besides, all of the Dragon Slayers so far sans Wendy have been pretty cool. I'd even go as far as to say, "Yes! Another Dragon Slayer!"

-
dragon slayers are just like the whole super saiyan thing there supposedly very rare but then we see about a ton people with them and soon i'm guessing there will be levels of them oh god
-
Dragon slayers really aren't that bad, as long as they each have some variation, but lets not get into the habit of assuming everyone with a flying pet is a dragonslayer…
-
New images because I fucking can!
And the anime begins on October 12. Mark your calendars.
-
Holyshit, awesome! :D
-
Anime Natsu looks like he's been hitting the gym.
-
Mashima actually doesn't look like a zombie in the image. Nice job cleaning 'erself up, man.
Any news on the director in that scan? I'd really like to know who's in charge.
And October 12th is… A Monday. So we're still going to be getting the new episodes and new chapters on pretty much the same day.
-
Hmm I glad that we have a poison Dragon. Poison is an overlooked element imo. Wonder how many DS' there will be and what other elements we'll see.

@Corsair:
"Gah, you hit me! How can this be?"
"Whaaaat? You're attacking without thinking?Rave master pretty earlier on (I'm thinking vol 7) and I'm pretty sure it might have been before skypedia.
I was not expecting cobra to be a dragonslayer. But I love it.

Actually he does, in more ways than one. Think about it.

I see nothing wrong with calling him Blaine since his name reminds me of the suicidal train from the dark tower series.
This chapter was awesome. Hot eye…I mean richard is most likeally gonna get killed by midnight. The fight between natsu and cobra was pretty good even though it reminded me too much of the sky piea battles of One Piece.
- Err… I hate to be the one to make the comparison, yet again, but does this fight seem familiar to anyone?
-
i really like the chapter and to me the mind reading game isnt new to me even before one piece so im ok with that.cobra being dragon slayer was left field and cool.so midnight confirmed to be a girl.i like richards turn around it makes him more likable. so does that mean we can expect midnight to be not a dragonslayer and have some kind of other magic.

But it's clear that, "Brain/Blaine" is just a codename at this point. Looking at the naming pattern between all of the Oracion Seis members makes it seem pretty clear that it should be Brain. Brain himself has made at least one comment in reference to his codename being "Brain." Whoever did the translation even confessed it was probably intended to be Brain, but went with Blaine anyways.
Unprofessional probably isn't the word I'd go with, but it's definitely an unwarrented liberty.
Just watch: Mashima is going to spell it as "Blain" when Del Ray gets to these chapters, and I'm going to look like an even bigger asshat for caring.
===
On the subject of Midnight, apparently he/she/it is not confirmed female. Apparently Lucy and Gray were using generic gender pronouns (Or the Japanese equivalent) when referring to Midnight. Bad translation from what I've heard, but I can't really go and confirm that myself.
EDIT: No wonder Mashima doesn't look like a zombie- That's not him. (Aheh, my mistake.) It's actually Daisuke Namikawa, who'll be voicing Seigrain/Gerard/Gerard/Mystogan/Gerard/Gerard.
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=1289
A few recognizable roles:
Ulquiorra–-Bleach
Captain Eustass Kidd–--One Piece
Kei–--------Gantz Rock–------Black Lagoon
Prince Kaito–---Murder Princess
Robot CarnivalUnfortunately(?), Masami Kikuchi, Seig Hart's VA won't be voicing Gerard this time. So no consistency there.

Blaine just sounds a whole lot better than brain to me. Huh so gerard is gonna be the voice of kidd? neato.
-
Another dragonslayer? Why aren't they that rare anymore?
-
So we have fire, metal, wind, lightning, and now poison right. We're missing water, earth, and wood to complete the common elements. Then there has to be light and dark, there is always light and dark. As long as it doesnt go over like 15 dragon slayers i'm fine. Saying 15 because i'm sure there is proably some elements i'm overlooking.
-
Is it just me or is there a page missing in this week's chapter? :wassat:
As for the chaper itself, I liked it. I'm also pleased to see that Cobra is a poison dragonslayer. That's another mystery solved.
It looks like with each arc from here on end, we will see a new dragonslayer revealed. I can't wait to see what the next one will be.
And I'm glad that Midnight finally came back. I was worried for a moment that Mashima would leave him AWOL.
-
Maybe there will be a Dragon Slayers Guild like the Vaizards….
-
Hiro looks like he wants to kill me less now.
-
Hey, next week is the 150th chapter!
I wonder what kind of goodies Mashima will provide us in celebration?
-
Hiro looks like he wants to kill me less now.
That's actually Daisuke Namikawa, Sieghart/Mistgun/Gerard's seiyuu. Mashima still wants to kill you.
Anyway, looks like Hoteye's goin' down. Kinda lame how Cobra got all bent out of shape by simple flailing on Natsu's part. I wasn't expecting a poison element Dragon Slayer though, but since last arc introduced to us fake Dragon Slayer magic, I wouldn't be surprised if we saw more fake Dragon Slayers in the future.

More lamer than Natsu possibly OHKOing Cobra? At least that didn't happen in this manga…for once.
-
The fight was good for this chapter, but it reminded me of One Piece much more than usual. Cobra's become like a combination of Magellan and Shura now. (Shura could be replaced with any of the priests, but he was the only one with a flying animal)

Updated
[XX] New Dragon Slayer
GerardAs for the chapter, it was good.
-
So Cobra is another Dragon Slayer it can either become interesting or awful
As for Gerard I hope he gets to become like SiegHart
And Midnight I still can't understand if it's a he or a she
-
My guess is that one of the last arcs of the series will be a Dragon Slayer arc, in which all or most of the dragon slayers go look for/are called by the dragons. The most powerful dragon slayer will of course be Gerard.
-
Oh my god.. so now every guild has one..
fuck.. I .. sht I need to stop reading this crap.POKEMON!! Every element except for Dragon, because Dragon Dragon slayer would be gay. Unless you need a slayer for dragon slayrers.. guess we'll have that too.
-
7 that's the number of total dragon slayers that will be. Since apparently natsu's dragon igneel dissapeared on 7/7/777 (if i'm not correct)

Along with all the other dragons. And Lucy's mother died on that day as well.
-

I forgot lucy's mom died on that day. I wonder if she didn't "die" and she actually left with the dragons…I know stupid prediction.
-
Well, shit, Mashima, if you want to copy off Oda you gotta be a bit more subtle.
We have that snake faggot using Mantra and apparently some sort of poison ability. Perhaps he'll turn into Magellan next chapter. Luffy counters Mantra by not thinking while he fights.
God this series just keeps getting shittier and shittier. knowing this series the anime is going to be a complete disaster too.
-
OK so 7, does Luxus count?
Also, don't count out the anime, Fairy Tail has major sexy filler potential, especially if the sensors don't mess with it.
If the sensors make it PG 13 then.. good game. -
Okay, I know it's usually sacrilege to suggest something like this but…
I'm actually hoping that the animation studio for Fairy Tail will take liberties with the series to make it less cliche and provide some clever script rewriting to make the series seem more original than what Mashima is doing with it. Because if the manga series is going to continue to knock off One Piece, it's not really going to sit well with the anime either.
And hopefully the anime will lengthen some of the more later fights to make Fairy Tail's opponents seem more powerful than they really are.

16 Characters of This.

@SSM:
I'm gonna be really dissapointed if Cobra is the only one who lives up to his already low potential. "Yo I got a snake."
I'm gonna put these words in a sandwich and devour it. Cobra is the best villain this arc so far. I wanna see what awesome shit he does next. Nothing Magellan level of epic but probably something awesome nonetheless.
Naturally since this is Kishimoto's stepson who is writing this series he will inevitably find someway to fuck up his current awesomeness. Possible villain "HOW COULD I LWOOOOOSSSEE!" at the end?
Edit: The mantra thing was lame though.
-
I'm confused here.I can't be the only one who heard of the whole mind reading game before one piece mantra.I'm serious I really Can't be.
-
Yes, because One Piece invented the whole thing. People with poison powers are also an One Piece invention.

[XX] New Dragon Slayer
GerardAs for the chapter, it was good.
It still amuses the hell out of me that checklist was made when air dragon girl showed up… and then like, the very next chapter we got Gerard.
Guess this explains why the bases were covered so quickly.
I suppose Mistgun can show up now so we can get
[XX] New Dragon Slayer
[XX] Gerard???
Also, anime Natsu's hair looks really… pink.

@iSheep:

goddamn Arlong ParkMy thoughts exactly.
-
i think it was a solid chapter…sure that cobra is a dragonslayer...:blink:didn
t see that 1 coming:getlost: it
s like gazelle2..yeahbut as said having mantra and poison ability..mashima can use it in my eyes..that are just normal abilitys in a fighting-manga:happy:
-
It's not that One Piece invented mind-reading, it's just that Fairy Tail has been seen as very similar to One Piece since chapter one. It's nigh undeniable that Mashima himself reads One Piece. So any situation which was pulled in exactly the same way, with the same exact solution, is worth pointing out.
-
@Corsair:
with the same exact solution
Not necessarily true:
Luffy got around it by punching the wall so that his fists would rebound so even he wouldn't know where they were going.
Natsu just sort-of started flailing and eventually hit the guy.
-
I like luffy's method better. You may punch yourself in the face but who cares? just as long as you manage to punch your enemy without them knowing it's gonna come at them.
-
So if Cobra is able to read Natsu's mind, would it have saved this chapter if Natsu decided to think of a complex mathematical equation instead? :blink:
-
natsu should of just pulled a yusuke and just kept saying the same thing over and over again in his head that way he would make the mind reader think: wait a minute maybe there's something he's gonna do that he will not tell me.
-
Guess nobody is thinking that maybe people call it mantra since nobody wants to type it as "mind reading through hearing ability thingie". And yes mind reading is not new from One Piece. Just as much as Mashima blatantly copies the series you can just take liberties with the comparisons.
Honestly I just think the whole mind reading ability sucks. Especially on someone like Cobra.
