Chapter is called Father and Son. Most of the chapter isn't about father and son.
EDIT: I realized Father and Son is the title for Part 4, not the chapter. I didn't know he was doing that till now lol
Fairy Tail Discussion III
-
-
Meh, I liked Happy before he fell in love with the other cat "Charle", mainly because of the sense of sarcasm he had. Now, he's toned down to the point where he just exists to be "cute".
-
You expected a tertiary character to take out one of the main villains…? In a shonen manga?
That's hillarious...
The main villian should be END whatever that is, and even if the relevance of the Spirit King is very low, he was an "attack" by Lucy, so him taking out the "substitute leader" would have been nice.

Agreed. Also, how he trolled Lucy (and sometimes other characters) was comedy gold. I actually remember when I saw the first episode of the anime, I was really surprised by both Natsu and Happy's voices. Natsu because I somehow expected him to have a Luffy-like voice. Happy because he had a high-pitched female voice. With the way he acted at the start of Fairy Tail - much smarter, more sensible, more sarcastic and wittier than Natsu and not at all the crybaby he is now (and his design was a bit less cute-looking back then) - I somehow expected him to have a deeper voice, maybe like a teenage boy.
Well, One Piece has Chopper who had to become that sickeningly cute teddy bear mascot instead of a short, fat reindeer-dog creature - then Fairy Tail probably had to try the same thing with Happy.
-
First time I felt so happy about Fairy Tail was a couple of weeks ago when the BOMB went Bamm, but it didn't last last to long and to top it all of it looked pretty bad assuming that this dude kinda feels like a stalker, he probably RAPE them -_-

New chapter is out:
http://readms.com/r/fairy_tail/388/2412/1! This must be some kind of challenge: how many clichés can Mashima put into a single chapter?
-
I know how the cover page is supposed to be understood but the ambiguity is blatantly obvious.
Cannot say I gave a shit about the rest of the chapter. Everyone's inherently good and has only become one of the villains due to <insert sad="" past="">. Don't care. Fuck off, Hiro-chan.</insert>

New chapter is out:
http://readms.com/r/fairy_tail/388/2412/1! This must be some kind of challenge: how many clichés can Mashima put into a single chapter?
Wendy cutting her hair as a symbol of newly found courage? - Check.
Minerva (villain) spouting superstitious crap about being the strongest (wizard)? - Check.
Minerva receiving a half-assed backstory about her bully father to make the reader feel compassionate about her? - Check. (hidden vulnerability, desire for strength blah blah)
Erza being a good protagonist, trying to cheer up Minerva by assuring her someone will like her new style? - Check.
King Of Hades (*sigh - villain) being an arrogant prick as usual, looking down on humans and stuff? - Check.
Last second arrival of the 2 knights in shining armor aka your favorite dragonslayers, Sting and Rogue? - Check!Guys, that's what makes a great manga chapter. Everyone, take out your notebooks!
Next Chapter: Dragonforce v2 Hax Magic incoming! -
Hair cut = Character development
King of Hades has to be the most generic villain in all of Fairy Tail. It's so painfully obvious that he's not the final villain of this arc so can he please hurry up and get jobbed already.
-
What the hell are those two supposed to do against Mard? They got wrecked by base Natsu.
-

Rogue has a new haircut which, as was shown in this very chapter, equals a significant boost in power and skill.
-
You forgot that, now, the gay couple from Sabretooth has a new, enormous power: they can use friendship-energy, since now their guild has turned good and is made of friends and so on…
-
The Fairy Tail virus has completely taken over Saber Tooth.
Their guilds should merge and form Tooth Fairy Saber Tail.
-
Words fail me with this chapter.
-
That was certainly…something.
-
Wow, I can't freaking wait to see how much more of a great character wendy now will be. She's going to get so much more powerful and be ultra helpful, just like sakura.
-
It's so painfully obvious that he's not the final villain of this arc so can he please hurry up and get jobbed already.
unfortunately Natsu is tied up at the moment so FRIENDSHIP will have to wait a while (Mashima: oh but I just had Sting and Rogue show up looking all badass so obviously you're suppose to think they actually stand a chance (because the 2 of them together are much stronger than the Spirit King!))
-
I know how the cover page is supposed to be understood but the ambiguity is blatantly obvious.
Oxymorons. Gotta love em.
-
Like, what does cutting her hair even mean?
Next, Natsu shaves his hair and ends up with a mohawk. Then he gets a power up, and can shoot flames from his fingers. The more fingers he uses, stronger the flames.
-
Wow, a friendship speech and Jellah showing up to save Ezra again? Fairy Tail you spoil us fans hand
-
Oh man, i feel so bad for the dinosaur fossil in the cover page. You can feel the crushing despair. Since he was a mere scribble he always aspired to be in a manga. It didn't have to be an important one. He just had to be in one. Growing up he thought that he would be in a scientific manga. Nothing too important. Maybe just a niche title, something that would only be read by a small audience but a loyal one. He decided to be a dinosaur fossil. I mean, that's scientific right? He would be in a cool panel where there is some cool exposition about the current arc or maybe an awesome spread that depicts the new area where the story would take place (At night, tho, he dreamt that he would be in some huge manga with really cool art like Hunter X Hunter or One Piece. I mean, those two manga really push the envelope and have all kind of tremendous art right?). Then one day his agent called. We have one! It's in a museum and everything! You're even in the cover! Oh man, Mom and dad would be so proud! Your little scribble has gone and done it! Look at me ma! Look at me Pa! This is my hour, my time to shine!
AND THEN YOU END ON THE FUCKING COVER OF FAIRY TAIL.
Soul-crushing man :(
Ahahah, only noticed that now.
Poor thing. And he has to feature with an half naked Gray. -
What just happened.
-
Mashima is a genius, he put so much cliché in this chapter that no one is paying attention to the fuckin Sabretooth guild master stripping his underage daughter and leaving her alone in the woods. Should i like call the police or something? I'm geniunely worried.

It's not his fault. It's the girl's fault for wearing tight jeans. (reference to India's fucked up rape policy)
It's not his fault. He was attacked by evil wolves as a kid and they forced him to strip. Complete humiliation that carried on into adulthood and now he's being an asshole himself. (Hiro-chan's preferred version)
He's dead now anyway. (probably best version)
-

. . .Did that really happen? For real?
-

FT is so bad that people really believe something like that could be true. It's not, Lee, but I'm sure we'd get something along the lines of my described scenario if Hiro-chan decided to make a good guy out of the fuckwit that is the previous Sabre Tooth guild master.
-
I thought about this when reading the "flashback", that Sabertooth master sure seems to be a fan of doing that.
-
We should call the police anyway guys D:
-
Wendy looks good in short hair. That's all I can say about this.
-
What´s up with woman cutting hair?
Just asking because of Sakura, that scene from FFIX where Garnet cuts her air, one episode of some japanese series i used to watch where one of the female characters did the same, and now Wendy.
I know it´s not a huge collection of situations, but does it have any special meaning in Japan? -
I dropped this manga a while back for obvious reasons, but I just reread Berserk, and if the Eclipse at the Grand Magic Games was the one like Berserk, I would have cum my pants. It probably would've become my favorite moment in literature history.

Well, but that's just a reinterpretation of Liitle Red Riding Hood: a preteen walking alone alone in a wood (naked, since it's Mashima we are talking about), with dangerous animals around. Besides, we should also start worrying about peDoranbolt: he is stalking Wendy since 200 chapter or so…
-
The thing with Wendy and her hair, the problem isn't with the symbolism, but with the manner it was done.
Just cutting it seems so random and half-assed, and the talk afterwards wasn't that good either.For example the Sakura moment in Naruto was 1000 times better! I know that people right now don't like it now, given where that development took Sakura. But in terms of execution it is so much better.
-

That's honestly. . .a bit disapointing. I mean, it would've been the kind of awful so awful that's even hilariously memorable.
Wolves ambushing a man and forcing him to strip, providing a life long obsession with forcing other people to strip.
I guess Hiro can't even write truly awful stuff. He's THAT bland. He can't even give us an Evil Rabbit Moon Lady or The Heart. He's just in the blandly, unrisky mediocrity range 24/7.
McBland Pedodouchebag, I'll call him from now on.
-
So Minerva who was actually a decent enough villain by FT standards is going to go good and rejoin Sabertooth?
Cause I guess there can no consequences or long lasting character changes due to the overwhelming power of Guild Friendship.
Fairy Tail.
-
At least Jose Porla was still a douche.
-
Neo Minerva? How creative. A sudden backstory and friendship baptism instantly wipes away chapters of awful villainy? Ah, classic FT.
-
I'm at least hoping Sting and Rogue get to show they are capable of something, unlike what happened at the tournament. But then again it's Mashina, fully expect Natsu to show up and save their asses.
-
All right, I'm about to predict the next Fairy Tail chapter.
Sting and Rogue: Now you taste the might of two 3rd generation dragon slayers.
Begin to wreck Marde Guille
After a while
MG: Enough of this
Blows them away while looking "cool"
Switches to Lucy trying to get back up or something (near topless of course)
Lucy: Got to find Natsu
Switches to Natsu
Natsu: This bastard is strong
(Insert character here): Ha your inferior magic can't beat my curse. Also friendship is gay.
Natsu: Hurr durr friendship nakama love bonds protect
Super fire punches character
Natsu: That was a "tough" fight
Switch to Gray
Gray: I'm going to kick your ass
Cocky douche: Nuh uh I'm strong. Ul never told you what happened to your father.
Gray: She told me you killed him!
CD: No, I am your father
Gray: No. No! That's not true! That's impossible!
CD: Search your feelings; you know it to be true!
Gray: NOOOOOOO! NOOOOOOOO!!!
CD: Gray, you can destroy E.N.D. He has foreseen this. It is your destiny! Join me, and together, we can rule the world as father and son! Come with me. It is the only way. -

He did the same thing to Yukino. It was funny when I saw him do it to Minerva too. Oh look, it's his trademark punishment, lol.
Also, if this was in first 100 chapters, I'd agree with you. Currently, hardly worth lifting an eyebrow.
-
Hiros actual purpose is to provide ideas for the doujinshi creators, because now they will make something dirty out of the minerva stripping as a child thing, ugh. He obviously would like to draw hentai, but there is more money to be gained by doing this mediocrity of a normal shounen manga instead, so he still lives out his fantasies by putting all the fanservice into ft and provide ideas for other artists.^^
-
I liked the hair cutting scene then realized this is Fairy Tail where Wendy's newfound determination and courage means a longer power struggle with a villain she can't beat ending with her being saved by a male character.

The ironic thing is the more fanservice or doujin material Mashima delivers, the less likely artists are going to make doujins from them.
-
new Fairy Tail chapter is out
and MP strikes again with blank speech bubbles.
That guy's face really pisses me off. -
Best cover page ever, lmao.
-
I don't care about these characters or Natsu. Just explain that 777 mystery and I'm done with this silly story.
-
So… next chapter Silver will cut off Gray's right hand, before telling him "I am your father"?
-
Hey look we get another countdown to the destruction of magic. Plenty time to avert it again. Sting and rogue have the power of friendship and the demon boss is still a smug douche. It is amazing how sheer uninspired and mediocore this manga is. Silver is probably nothing more than just a demon who is possesing the body.
