Well, okay chapter, now it'll be fun and hopefully hilarious a tournament arc. It's like "man, we almost died 7 years ago, we got no idea about what the bad guys are up to, and… tournament with prize?! LET'S GO!"
Fairy Taint Discussion II

I like how this guild that does everything for their friends doesn't even listen to them most of the time. At least not the side characters! The theme of "friendship" that Natsu and co follow just seems more and more selfish over time. Pointless too, since while in One Piece the crew has goals, Fairy Tail are just a bunch of bums that coast through life.
Btw, has Lisanna done anything these last few chapters? I think I saw her in a panel, but it's like she hasn't existed since main group got back. I think this is the first time I've seen Elfman since then too, or definitely the first spoken line he's had. Is their any point in Levy losing 7 years? Is she going to fight? I wonder.

And yet they also had to be cryo frozen in time to make absolutely sure they learn nothing new to contribute to the plot.
And btw , yeah, she absolutely had to be brought back from the dead didn't she ?

After I read this chapter, I stood up and clapped my hands. Hiro is such a genius, after a "timeskip" ( xD ) he does a training arc that will be completed with a tournament. Kubo move out of the way cuz the Hiro train ain't gonna stop.

Trainwreck you mean. :ninja:

This might be a stupid question, but can anyone tell me what happened to Gajeel? Was he given an assignment of some kind, and I've just completely forgotten about it? I probably did. I tend to forget about 75% of the things that happen in this manga.

When exactly ?
They mentioned something a chapter or two but nothing concrete about an assignment, or anything.

Welcome back Hinscher!
I was waiting for the chapter to come out to say that. I missed you around. Especially with everyone else polluting my air.

Huh ? I thought he was banned.
And I don't see any new members that could be him O.O
-
I knew it. 3 months training timeskip/arc.
-
Awwwww…. It's so cute! I want one!

Is that like a tiny canine thing or a fox with bug teeth ?
-
Finished the chapter.
Awwwww! I can't say it's a bad chapter now
-
Personally, I liked the chapter - the explanation for Porlyusica used something we had already known about rather than (as Mashima does from time to time) making something up (and besides, it wouldn't be the first time that someone's Edoras counterpart was a different species - look at Ichiya, for example), and the only person who got a power-up from all this was Wendy (who's the weakest among the main group, if not the guild), so they'll all have to work to get stronger rather than getting some kind of DEM power-up from Porlyusica.
Also, it helps that the tournament isn't strictly a one-on-one fighting tournament, or even a fighting tournament (though it will probably turn into one at some point). All in all, it managed to subvert my expectations in a good way, which is more than Fairy Tail chapters generally do.
-
@No:

I meant in the last couple of chapters. The last thing I recall was his presence during Fairy Tail's big return, and then nothing. It just feels somewhat odd not seeing him being a part of the group during the discussion on entering the coliseum fights.
-
Meh, I didn't really want to see a tournament arc. Too many things could turn out lame. I liked the explanation for Granadine though. And lol training for 3 months. Is this going to be a time skip or a gradual thing? Boo no Gajeel this chapter.
-
Train arc after timeskip? Hiro lives in the Bizarro World.
-
I liked this chapter.
/let the flaming begin/ -
Okay, I didn't feel like this chapter was a bad one. The Edoras solution is convenient, but it does give it a greater sense of relevancy instead of merely being a one-off kind of deal. So now they're going to the olympics, are they? Tournament arcs can be mindless fun at first, and this series does at least do okay when it's not taking itself seriously, but we'll see.
-
I don't expect the tournament thing to be that bad… unless there's an interruption that changes everything to the point the tour gets canceled(it's goin to hapen). I'm hoping it's lighthearted fun, like early Dragonball. It would be fun way to see what the other guilds are made of.
-
I'm okay with the tournament/games thing, but if just after 3 months they will be able to win over all the other guilds that had 7 years, than it's gonna be really disappointing.
-

Yeah this never hit me until now but wow this is like…...
Even Hiro acknowledges the time skip was completely pointless so he still has to include a training segment.
-
what I don't get is how Natsu is fodder now when he was near top class of the magic world before, that's like if there was a 7 year time skip in one piece and lets say doflamingo had the same thing happen to him, but he still had the same power level, how the hell would fodder evolve that much and the whole scale o9f power change so that he was a weakling, you know what I mean, just because people have had time to train doesn't mean everyone would catch up to the elites of the world, and it certainly doesn't make sense that the elites of the world 7 years ago would be trash now
-
Nothing much to say about this chapter, although translaters, what the fuck is a Dai-matou Enbu?
-
I assumed it's one of those random words like Budokia and thought "tournament". Unless it meant something else.
-
Ok chapter.
It's so funny that there's a training arc right after the timeskip though. Seems like the skip was only there to set up this tournament arc.
I really liked the 2-page spread of the stadium, looked really nice.Also this is adorable:
-
Their footnote reads ''Great Magic Games''. I don't see what the point is in not translating that to begin with…
-
I liked this chapter
-
Okay chapter,i hope tournament will be more then just matches(1 vs 1 that sort of thing).
-
Alright!!! They're off to the Olympics!!! Go for gold!!!
So if other Grandine's human, is other Natsu dragon?
-
…Huh? We've seen Edolas Natsu already.
-
During the training arc sessions, they probably might run into the other Edo dragons. But that's assuming a way that would make a trianing arc less tideous. Especially if one of them do infact know where the dragons have disappeared to. I can't see Hiro dragging on that thread much longer for some reason.
-
I'm thinking Tartaros will crash the Grand Magic Games.
-
I just realised that I haven't read the last two chapters(only read the first couple of pages of last weeks). I think I may have subconsciously dropped this series. Whether that's good or not remains to be seen.

There's always Gerard.

The chapter had a very nice spread. Overall decent chapter.
I'm…excited for the tournament. I'm curious as to how Hiro manages to sink the arc. It's all just fighting though, surely he can pull it off!
-
A Shonen manga fighting tournament in itself is setting itself up for a weak plot, but it's generally redeemed by the fact that the author's just using it as a medium to show off some cool powers. Considering everyone in this entire series has entirely bland, unmemorable magic, this arc seems predestined to be a failure.
-
Except this isn't necessarily a fighting tournament. They outright say that in the chapter.
-
We all know that after the first round of this 'olympiad' it will get crashed by the bad guys and one on one battles will ensue
-
But the bad guys are in the tournament. Please don't do the same thing as the S-Class Tourny…
-
So it's like a Davy Back Fight? A collection of games with some fight rounds? I would not mind that. Assuming Hiro knows what a fun a game is(I'm not).

He plays a lot of American video games, though his favorite games are the Monster Hunter series. One of the games is pronounced Mira ja Ne in Japanese… look familiar?
-
Meh I'm getting a tournament vibe from that arena
Still it could be something different -
@Lazy:

I thought the S class was an exam and not a tournament
-
It was an exam/tournament.
-
A training camp by the sea. How convenient.

What nice image….vomits
So training.....in fanservice arts.Good job hiro.
The chapter was ok but i doubt will see much training Mashima going to have another time jump. -
You know, I could say the same shit I say almost every week
but I'm going to keep it simple; I flat out only felt disgust when reading this chapter. Pure and unpolluted disgust.
You are the worst Mashima
the fucking worst
