Besides Pisces, this chapter sucked. The strongest assassins got 1 hit k'oded. Pantherlily was ok tho. But has Natsu EVER had a hard time fighting?

For one, has there ever been anybody that wasn't in a guild that was even remotely strong? Not sure why this Fiore kingdom who has been insanely weak the entire series you thought their assassins would be strong.
Second, you have to look at each individual fight. Talk about the match ups working out almost insanely too perfect. Each opponent was matched up against someone who basically nulled their entire ability. Swap around the matchups and it might have tooken a chapter longer to finish the fights.
Not sure why all the bitching, first it was bitching about some randoms showing up to fight and now your upset that these randoms didn't take long enough to fight.
-
I liked the assassins tho.
-
this thing just offended my eyes…
-
@Friend:
The chapter was better than usual in that it actually had one of the few redeeming features of the series: a Zodiac.
Something that Homestuck did better just so you know…
-

If you're going to take the time to shoehorn a bunch of hyped up opponents randomly from nowhere, the least you can do is actually give each one of them a semi-decent fight with just a little bit of reasonable amount of time dedicated to each. Not have them all lose in the same chapter like this. Its almost as bad as Laxus vs.
Team RocketRaven Tail.Even moreso as Megadoomer said, in the case of Mirajane whose only chance to actually show off so far this entire arc was in a forcefed fanservice contest.
-
Good point: Lucy didn't loose.
Bad point: Guild declaring war=stupidity
easy-to-predict point: They really were fast to beat.
-
So yukino is a better version of Lucy?
-
@Davy Jones: Homestuck? What's that about, and is it manga? I'm interested.
-
@Money:

Everyone has better control over there spirits then Lucy.
-
Even her own spirit Loke.

I think yours and mine definitions of hyping up is different.
When some random person in a manga goes "OMG, these guys are amazing" that to me is not hyping up.
To me hyping up is showing someone just kicking ass or doing some amazing move to beat someone else. That is hyping up.
These guys had what a total of 2 chapters from first appearance to defeat. Hardly see there being time at all to hype them up
-
If you guys want to be thoroughly disturbed watch this:
http://www.animeseason.com/fairy-tail-ova-episode-4/
Comes complete with:
Naked Gray
Most of the female FT cast drunk
Natsu petting Lucy like a cat
Grey getting molested
Natsu & Lucy shipping
Female FT cast fanservice (with no exceptions)! Yes that includes Wendy & Mavis
-
I enjoyed the OVA. There wasnt any Wendy n Mavis FS. But wtf with LucyxNatsu what about Lisanna? This OVA reminded me how much I love this series. Cant wait until Gray actually shows interest in Juvia.

The drunk part was funny
-
The author forgot about the Natsu and Lisanna relationship(I still want to know the point of her coming from the dead) so the anime staff is not at fault really.
-
This chapter and the one before it were absolute shit. Seriously, as much as I enjoy Fairy Tail, I feel Hiro is slipping more and more into the cliche that it's not even funny. Not to mention anti-climatic and terrible at writing fights.
Did anyone here even give a damn about the Garou Knights?
-
I did not like how the leader was defeated.
-

I for myself I'm still how could that be the leader.
-
The leader of the kingdom's strongest assassins just talked n got 1 jit k'od
-
Did anyone here even give a damn about the Garou Knights?
At first I did care about those guys. But the last two chapters changed my mind surprisingly fast. Defending Fairy Tail gets hard when Hiro introduces a group of infamous assassins only to have them get obliterated shortly after. That way Natsu's group falling into that pitfall doesn't make any sense whatsoever (at least it looks like it for now).
-
i really liked that ova. The animation was really good as well. If only more of the episodes could be like that
-
Good lord what has happened to this series.

Good lord what has happened to this series.
It was always mediocre but had some potential, especially back during the Garuda Island and Phantom arcs. Then came the Tower of Paradise and Gerard…
-
I loved the jellel arc
-
The Grimoire Arc was awesome also….and mostof the stuff in the tournaments
-
@Money:
I loved the jellel arc
I did too. It brought us Fukurou.
….Which is honestly the only good thing about it.
-
The Edolas Arc was really good too
-
No it wasn't. It really really wasn't. Alterna-tail got shafted BAD, and those cats were annoying as fuck. Lisanna being revived has led nowhere.
Only ggod thing to come of that arc was Panther Lily. -

Still, Faust was fun for a bit. I realy did like his totaly insane staredown whenever any of his subordinates asked a perfectly legitimate question.
-
I liked "The dark King Dragoniel and his lackeys". Cute and fun character moment.
It doesn't outweight the "Magic power of tomorrow!!" even if the 2th magic source has been explained since then.

This post is deleted!

I'm not even reading these newest chapters anymore but I'm watching the fourth OVA now and MAN is there a lot of Natsu x Lucy Ship Tease in it…
-
It's really amusing how many people you can count every week that come into this thread only to state that they don't read this manga.
Has to be the manga that has the most non-readers that feel the need to visit the thread every week.
-
It's a fun thread. It has… deep discussions, Hinscher making One Piece comparisons, and, and it's not as prone to kicking me out like the Reborn thread did :D
-
FT was amazing until the Natsu vs Sting n Emo fight.

Only ggod thing to come of that arc was Panther Lily.In my opinion it was amazing. I was entertained throughout the whole arc, the entire idea was creative, it felt like something close to what Oda would create.

LOL

lol, thanks.

I know the AP awards are starting but still…..
-
ITT: FT was amazing as long as I was still catching up and didn't had time to think about all the crap Mashima shat out of his brain in every single chapter. (This also applies to most other Shounen that "turned bad")
Don't delude yourselves, it never lived up to its potential. Not in a single arc ever since it started.
-
Its just that they overused the same things over n over again. But while I was catching up to the Natsu vs Sting n Emo it was perfect to me. But as he said, as you read on a weekly basis you expect more out of a chapter n set yourself for a greater overestimation of it. FT has bad points but IT'S NOT SHIT. It it was shit why is it one of the more popular current mangas? You dont have to like it but it isnt shit. Reread or watch the earlier arcs n see how good it is. FT-fan Out!

- Manga. Scratch the s.
- Popularity =/= Quality. How often have we go over this simple fact? Shall I bring up Justin Bieber or Twilight? Or will you just accept the fact without starting a 3-page-long discussion? I am so tired of this "argument"…
- I read it weekly since 2006 when KEFI did put out the scans on a slow as fuck pace (I hope I got the scan group down correctly). It was mediocre with a lot of potential till the Tower Of Paradise to me. Fighting Festival, Edoras and most other arcs had a few nice buildup chapters, but Mashima is the king of setting up a nice plot and then raping it harder than Krauser II from DMC for the rest of the arc.
- No way I'm going to miss out on the fun of tearing each new chapter to shreds every week!
-
It ok to not like but I just dont get why half of the posts are"FT is shit""I dont read/dropped the series""FT is VS but I still read it/post on the thread" . Anyone know if theres an APforums type of thing for FT?
-
Because it's fun to hate on things.
I never bothered to search for such a site, but I am sure there are quite a few
-
Thanks bro 16 character
-
Not bad I suppose, certainly not compared to the snooze-fest of a fight we just had.
! The hooded girl's shown up again, which means that it's going to take another several volumes before her identity is finally revealed, I bet.
-
Mashima is having a contest against Kubo to see who can make hide a character identity the longest.
-
This was a pretty good chapter. I didn't expect Mashima to give a reason for the whole walking through lava thing so that was nice and unexpected. Also the fight next chapter could be interesting now that we've finally got a fight that isn't just 1 Vs 1. Does anyone actually know what kagura's magic is?
Also the first was adorable this chapter :wub:

Ah, Hiro's classic staple of "have important character dialogue happen offscreen between chapters and then have the characters parrot everything they all just heard" instead of showing the actual scene itself.
It's just as contrived as the "background suppporting cast meticulously explain everything that just happened and is being said to absolutely no one because everyone present is seeing the same thing" trope that I'm harpin on in Sakigake Otokojuku, but that was at least published in the 80's, this is just lazy story telling of the most "convenient" sort.

No, I think the "no trial" bit is deserving of an explanation Minister Fuckface.
