Guys, FT is not worth insulting someone over. Not even close.
Fairy Tail Discussion III
-
-
Chopperrules is correct in that I never said a word about either series's quality, but if one is so eager to play that game, I can oblige:
It is my position that both series' attempts to juggle four-plus perspectives per chapter have been to their overall detriment. There, straight from the mod's mouth himself. Now we can go back to normal discussion, _without_ the name calling, whether it's sarcastic or not.
-
Future Lucy is actually Future Gerard in disguise.

Well, now this has become the trainwreck I was expecting.

CONVENIENT BACKSTORY AHOY !

What is this horeshit ?
I'm not entirely sure what you mean by that - we've known since the first chapter that Rogue was introduced that he looked up to Gazille when he was a kid, or something to that extent.
-

I give ya that, but the whole "I was devastated by you joining FT !" smacks of trying to apply character where none was before. Especialy due to how PL were a bunch of kidnaping assholes.
Maybe I missed the part where whicheverofthetwotwatsthisis looked up to Gazille after he left Phantom ?
-
i wonder how Mashima will handle "future Lucy lying or didn't told the whole thing to her FT friends".. they wins and survives everything with "friendship"…. is there anything else greater than their friendship?
-
Congratulations Mashima, I don't think I any issues with this chapter. Good on you for this week.
-
Why would future Lucy be lying? Maybe to protect her friends from some danger? No idea.
Despite it being cliché'd, I liked the NatsuxFutureLucy scene. I expected him to put on some big grin while claiming to protect everyone and everything but him pulling such a move was surprisingly… cute. And lastly, shadow Rogue vs Gajeel now? Sounds fine to me if the fight gets proper treatment. All in all it was an alright chapter in my eyes. -
What is it with the fairy tail bashing. I like Fairy tail, I like to see the upcoming battles. DBZ also had lots of battles and those were generally fun!
-
I'm not too sure what to make of this. I just want Gajeel to win. It'd be stupid to have him as the only loser in this round just to boost Rogue.
-
I liked the chapter up until the last page.That shadow feels like something Mashima just came up with to make Rogue strong enough to not get curbstomped.
-
All I heard in this chapter was:
"FRIENDSHIP, FRIENDSHIP, I NATSU WILL SAVE THE DAY!"
-
So Lucy is definitely lying now because I get the implication her getting the date wrong and lying about when she actually showed up in the past saying she came on the 4th(jellal has been sensing the same magical presence for every GMG) is to clue people into this.
Rogue's story still makes zero sense to me. So he killed a dragon/became dragonslayer(maybe?) Joined phantom lord idolizing gajeel?
-
All I heard in this chapter was:
"FRIENDSHIP, FRIENDSHIP, I NATSU WILL SAVE THE DAY!"
So basically fairy tale is the shounen version of the Care Bears?
-
Ugh, if Fairy Tail doesn't end in the forceeable future I may have to drop it. Honestly I struggle to bear it, friendship, friendship blah, blah, blah.
And when characters from the future shows up their usually badass or have a lot of information and dramatic plot details, but I nominate future Lucy for the worst character in Fairy Tail history BY FAR, first she fainted, now she's being useless and crying honestly she's nothing short of a waste of space.
But if she has a giant heel-turn and starts killing characters left and right and was lying all this time for good reason then I wouldn't mind :D
-
I always liked Rogue. Him n Yukino were the only nonjerkasses in their guild
-
I'm not too sure what to make of this. I just want Gajeel to win. It'd be stupid to have him as the only loser in this round just to boost Rogue.
Relax, I bet the proof that the princess is waiting for is that fairy tail is going to win the contest with all it's members undefeated.
-
Meh, nothing much happened here. Only important things were that Future Lucy is hiding something, Jellel's group finally do something and..Rouge suddenly having a dark side. Okay, the former two I could deal with but where did this come from? It wasn't established earlier that this was the case and he certainly didn't display it during the tag team match. Is that Minerva just messing with him or some kind of split personality? I mean c'mon, if Mashima needed a reason for Gajeel and Rouge to fight, he could've just had the latter gain more resolution. There no reason to have the character do a 180 for the sake of it. Oy.
-
@hmj:

That would be dumb. I can understand the princess wanting to see it for her own eyes if Lucy told her on day one.
But on the last couple days the insane things that Fairy Tail showed the audiance from Erza to Kana to the dragon Slayers to Laxus and so on. I would think at that point she would be like "hmm wow maybe they will win undefeated"
And I mean if it involves 10,000 dragons. I would think the sooner she see's her proof the better. What can it hurt to prepare for something prematurely in regards to that.
-
I'm amazed by how much of a giant puss Rouge turned out to be. In this chapter, even his shadow seems to have more guts than him.
-
Anyone thinking this shadow is likely that tall dude from Ravel Tail that turned into that devil thing ?
-
At first I thought it was his cat…
Maybe rogue absorbed his dragon and got his powers.
-
For anyone is interested the Fairy Tail movie raw is out with good quality.
I quite like the animation :)
Natsu's flames actually looks like flames, not cgi crap. -
I wonder if it's really less expensive to animate the flames through CG than it is to just do it traditionally like everything else on the character? Or did they really believe that the CG looked better before they did the movie..?
-
I imagine it's just less hassle in the long run to use CG instead of animating fire that has to move and change shape with every movement the character makes, but geez does it end up looking like utter ass.
-
Hope this wasnt posted here yet:
Cover 36
Kinda average.
-
Why is Leon even there?
-
-
Leo was so much cooler when he was Loki, though his arc was pretty good at the time
-
Gah, new chapter out. Horrible out-of-nowhere powerup incoming!
-
He isn't .
Oh, yea, I put a extra "n" in Leo's name. WHY HE'S EVEN THERE?
http://www.mangapanda.com/fairy-tail/318/3
The chapter cover looks way more interesting than everything "mage-like" that Mashima actually put on the manga.
And the chapter gives a "reason" so Leo can be on the cover. Okay.
And evil Gajeel, sure. -
Gasp It's Majin Gajeel! O_o
-
Wow. Gotta admit, Iron Shadow Gajeel looks pretty badass. I wonder if he'll keep the shadow powers like Natsu kept the lightning power.
-
Damn i forgot how evil Gajeel was N WHY DA FLYIN FUQ r the guards attacking if the princess sants to help them?
-
Okay pretty good chapter, at least were getting some decent intrige and Natsu's group is finally doing something again. Heck I even admit I'm curious what this "shadow" is (though I'm guessing it's Gajeel's "dark side" come to life or some bolonga).
-
Well, I for one am interested on it too, even though it just seems a way to power-up Gajeel. Soon, even Wendy will be powered-up.
-
Most of the first part of the chapter was fairly boring (Natsu's group running away, Yukino and the knight guy disappearing, Gerard for fangirls' sake) but Gajeel turning into the Iron Shadow Dragon Slayer made up for it. Now Mashima only has to deliver.
-
Gajeel did something cool, yay! Gajeel! (not sure if it makes sense, but cool is cool) Frog cat is worried, I wonder if he'll mange to do something.
Have you noticed that the characters look more and more like one another with time. Seriously it'll be hard to tell them apart soon if this goes on. -
well, guess i've seen it all
lightning flame dragon
iron shadow dragonfairy tail, folks!!!
-
If all you have to do is eat something to gain its powers, when will we see Flaming Cake Dragon?
-
I hope Wendy fights a Fart Dragon Slayer for a powerup.
-
So… how does a steel Dragon Slayer gets stronger by eating Shadow?
-
So… how does a steel Dragon Slayer gets stronger by eating Shadow?
The same way a fire ones does eating lightning? I can't even be upset but Gajeel's power up because I'm just so damn happy it wasn't Natsu again.
-

Well, yeah… but Gajeel is far worse.
-

WHAT!? Gajeel is awesome sauce. Pretty much my number one character in this series. I dig his design, his power type and his overall demeanor. Also he wasn't on Team Natsu and he actually trained for this tournament. This power up is totally random but if it helps beat down Rogue who is painfully bland I'm all sorts of hyped up for it.
Also. Isn't this the first time in like forever where we get a power up that is pretty much the opposite of a friendship based power up? He's using someone elses' fear?
-

"Specialist" ? All you can do is punch stuff.

Oh yeah and Gajeel now looks like ass.

Meh, he's kind of bland and uninspired, It's just like you said, the very fact that we have a character who doesn't torture us with [generic shonen speech #138] is probably why some folks think this character is cool, but that's only because the bar has already been set so phenomenally low that even the usual shonen badass seems legitimately cool.
Edit: Also, what the guy below me said. -
You know? I thought the reason dues ex machinas were looked down on in FT because they came out of nowhere without any sense of personal accomplishment for the character without any buildup. Now I'm here amazed to see that none of that really matters. As long as the random powerup is given to someone with a one-dimensional-badass persona that serves as the Shadow the Hedgehog to someone's Sonic, it's perfectly okay. Lowest common denominator appeal right there. Like any generic shonen should be.
Not complaining. It's the target audience of the genre.
