Just got done watching the episode, good ep sucky as how they couldn't keep jura's headdress on but seeing as how a large majority of the arc he's bald it was a smart decision to just keep him bald. Ichiyama having aizen's voice was hilarious.
Next episode has the battle royal animated, I sure do hope they'll expand it a little and not make it feel as quick as it did in the manga.
The magical council and Ten Great Holy Mages wasn't the same thing , was it ?
No, the council is who oversees the guilds of the country, whereas the 10 holy mages are the most powerful mages in the country
I know that it's just someone on the previous page put Gerard and Jura in the same category .

Gerard himself was a Holy Mage. Seigrain was the council member.
Seigrein/Gerard was a member of the council and the Ten Holy Saint's
Seeing as he was just Gerard with half his power I'm thinking the position is only good in name only.
Just watched the episode. I had forgotten that Grimoire Heart made an appearance before this arc. Funny how this happened in the anime the same week they return in the manga. But was Hades' siloute also shown in the manga, or did they draw from the latest chapter?
The episode was great overall. Hearing Aizen's voice from… that? It's like the producers and the voice actor are poking fun at the bullshit Aizen becomes. And I love it. I think this arc animated will go from being dumb to at least being mediocre. And I rather like Wendy's voice. It's cute sounding enough to fit her, but it doesn't feel too forced like other anime lolis.
you forgot that this happend? with a bad ass name like Hades, I could never forget and the only thing that was shown was a close up to his face more preferably below the eye's and heavily shadowed.
Aizen as Ichiyama = AWESOME

AniMax's dub has gotten to episode 15. The script is pretty much dead-on, but the acting is stiff. Couple of odd things…
'Iced Shell' is renamed 'Iced Incagedment'.
'Ice Make' is being called 'Ice Wizard Power'.
They pronounce Lyon's name as 'Lion', like the cat.
As for Ur, they go with the 'Ul' spelling, but it sounds like they're pronouncing it as "Yul".

I forgot about the Tartarus guild , not GH .

Well back then I wasn't into FT as much. I care about it a lot more now than before and remember things like this easier.
@No:

that was directed at chopperrules, I however did forget about Tartarus.

I thought you were always into FT, never notice, the fans and the pick aparters in this thread blend together so much. but there's stuff both sides agree on whether it's good or bad.

i find that a bit strange. Feels like lately you've been ripping on this manga more than usual.
I'll be a fan again once Hiro does not fuck up Hades .
And if Lisanna is relevant this arc . Hardly a chance I kow but he brought this situation on himself .
lisanna will get a fight, if you look at hades roster it's obvious as to who will fight who.
I'm looking forward to Makarov vs. Hades. But I see this going just like the blue guardians arc did, GH attacks, some of the members of FT get to fight, they capture zeref and leave.

Fighting matchups? Hm, well barring some unforeseen circumstance, Erza and Juvia are encountering Mest, Gray will probably at least encounter Ultear, maybe Gajeel will fight the psycho-looking guy in the back, Elfman might fight the goat guy, unless he's a spirit in which case he automatically defaults to Lucy. Actually I think there will probably be a bunch of two-on-ones or something.
When it came to the goat dude, I immediately thought Loki will fight this guy.
I'm thinking it's going to be a bunch of two-on-one fights - with the exception of Zeref, Mest, and Wendy (seeing as Mest is likely a villain), there are seven groups of two from Fairy Tail (Natsu and Happy, Elfman and Evergreen, Gray and Loki, Cana and Lucy, Levi and Gazille, Erza and Jubia, Mirajane and Lisanna), and seven displayed members of Grimoire Heart. I don't know who's going to fight who, but I have some guesses:
–Natsu and Happy/Natsu and Zeref (depending on whether Zeref works with the main cast or not) vs. Hades (he's the leader of the group - at this point, it's expected that Natsu will fight him)
--Gray and Loki vs. Urtear (she's the daughter of Gray's mentor, so the dramatic potential is there)
--Cana and Lucy vs. goat-man (the goat-man at least has the potential to be Capricorn - it's a goat-based astrological sign, and notably absent from Lucy's collection of spirits)
--Elfman and Evergreen vs. big-head (if Sol was any indication, Elfman will probably wind up against the strangest-looking member of the group)
--Levy and Gazille vs. spiky-hair (the guy opposite to Urtear in the line-up - he looks powerful, at least, and given that Gazille's been complaining that he hasn't gotten a good fight, this guy seems like he would give him one)
--Erza and Jubia vs. glasses-person (difficult to say if that's a man or a woman - however, I'm just going by their facial expression, which seems to reek of smug overconfidence. Given that Erza and Jubia are two of the trickier members of the guild to deal with (one being an intangible person with no obvious weaknesses, the other being Erza), this person will probably be taken down a peg by fighting them)
--Mirajane and Lisanna vs. wing-girl (again, difficult to give a real reason. However, I can't see Mirajane and Lisanna not getting fights, since Lisanna was just brought back into the story and Mirajane's fight during this arc was off-screen, so we need something to show why she's an S-class mage)
The matches involving the nameless people, of course, are entirely based on speculation, seeing as we don't even have names, or a single line of dialogue, to base their personalities or abilities on. However, I'm almost certain about the first two, and pretty sure about the third. I'm not sure how Mest will be involved, and I can't begin to guess.
I wonder why these Dark Guilds are so small in member numbers. FT has so many members and the two major Dark Guilds we've seen so far only have a few people. Strong of course but you'd think they'd be much bigger.
Everything's Eventual…
Ah friend Outespec , good observation .
Well didn't Phantom Lord have alot of members ? 99 % of them were fodder but stil .
Wasn't Phantom Lord a good guild though and a rival of FT?
Everything's Eventual…
We also don't know how many members Raven Tail has. We've only seen the Guildmaster (Ivan) so far.
Well it prety much resorted to threatening their own clients and Jose planned to hold Lucy hostage and steal all of her father's money so I'd say it's as bad a guild as they get .
They did bad things but phantom lord was never a dark guild they just had a deep hatred for Fairy Tail. If you really look at it, the 3 major dark guilds are small but they do control 1,000 smaller dark guilds so in a way the large guilds actually have more members.

Well, back in the Phantom Lord Arc, supposedly Phantom Lord controlled a number of smaller guilds, too, but they were all defeated single-handedly by Mystogan.
Plus, I think it was mentioned somewhere that Raven Tail is a huge guild with a lot of members, which allows it to act independently.
There have been other Dark Guilds seen, such as Naked Mummy, though they're all weaklings. Eisenwald was a Dark Guild, too, but it was rather small.
I called it wrong, so long ago. I guess this needs to be changed.
I just have a feeling that the stronger dark guilds have a "no weakling" mentality akin to that of Laxus. So it's not abnormal for thse guilds to have only a few members. As it was already mentioned, they do control a ton of smaller guilds who could be part of theirs if they wanted to, it's just that they don't want to be directly associated w/ weaklings.
@Fire Fist:

Essence of all dissapointment in Fairy Tail .
Hype followed by offscreening .

I believe both Eisenwald and Naked Mummy were under the control of Oracion Seis

Would you really want to see mystogan take out every single small fraction of Phantom Lord? if that was the case PL would of lasted until chapter 100 and we'd probably be in the middle of the battle of FT by now.
And that would be wrong because ? :ninja:
Do we REALLY want Bleach's pacing, No Maam?
@No:
And that would be wrong because ? :ninja:
look at the forum were in, people bitch if an arc is too long and they bitch if it's too short.
But…..we'd have no OS and NO CATS !
WRONG!
we'd eventually have OS and CATS. OS would be at around chapter 400 and Edoras would be chapter 700. It would just be LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONGER. Just imagine 200 chapters of cats.
now do you think FT should go at a BLEACH pace?
Considering that alot more cast members would get a fight eventualy (rather then never)…hell yeah ! :ninja:
How would this series ever go at a 'bleach' place?
Even if the off-screen fights were shown it would'nt affect the pacing.
Most fights are around one chapter long.
Not that I was overly interested in the fights not shown though.
I was mostly joking after Gep didn't understand what I meant .
I was talking about how some things are hyped up in this series and then get offscreened as a whole .
Some off screening doesn't bother me and some does. Like Jet vs. Droy vs. Arzack i'm glad the anime gave this some screentime yet it was passed up in the manga.
and the part where all the smaller dark guilds attack in the OS arc, at first I was certain that we'd get to see just how good our "team of allies" were. Of course we got to see natsu and gray lay waste to naked mummy. yet when it came to the blue pegasus boys and lamia scale there opponents were handled off screen which greatly bothered me.
I wonder why these Dark Guilds are so small in member numbers. FT has so many members and the two major Dark Guilds we've seen so far only have a few people. Strong of course but you'd think they'd be much bigger.
If they have too many members the authorities would know something is suspicious when there's a bunch of shady looking mages all together in one spot.
Woah, that supposed villain showed up too early. But of course even if he is hyped as the greatest dark lord ever, I'm pretty sure someone worse will show up roll eyes. I kind of like his character though (person with a kind (?) heart but possess the deadliest of evil powers).
What's up with Natsu's reaction… I felt it was a bit too much. How come he's so violent and disapproving? Though perhaps maybe he just feels too tense to meet someone creepy who claims to know him. XD
His body probably remembers that evil magic and is naturally on the defense.
Especially if Zeref is right in saying Natsu is suppose to be the one to kill him.
The only authority in the magical world is the council
Phantom Lord isn't an evil guild and I think Makarov reported him to the council anyway because he attacked them.
Nirvana arc was before the new council reformed so I doubt there was much order.
Oh didn't Cross mention a while back he started reading Rave ? I wonder if he's finished it yet .
Also , Rave as a topic is prety much dead . If it gets activity it will just be people comparing it to Fairy Tail , so I think it would be better if we could compare the two here and not move any posts to the other topic anymore . Just a sugestio to any mods listening .
no FT 210 yet? not even spoilers??
the full chapter usually comes out on mangastream each saturday around 12 - 2 pm
is there going to be a chapter this week¿
Maybe mashima got a break after 3 chapters in a day.
usually we are told when a break is coming, so i am not really sure >w<
Understandable ,….but I dunno how Weekly Shōnen Magazine anounces a break .
And yes I had to wikipedia the name , I always forget .
oh, i just read somewhere else that FT is coming sunday this time, but im not sure if this is reliable
New chapter is out! And wow, talk about
! baiting the shippers with Levy and Gajeel.
New chapter is out. I found it to be good until we got to the part with Gajeel and Levi, Levi just randomly freaks out, as if Gajeel doesn't always act like that. Also, if she sucks so much and needs Gajeel to protect her, why nominate her for S-Class?
