I expect Luffy will defeat Big Mama in an eating contest and they will become friends. Luffy was trained by Raileigh, Zoro by Mihawk. But some of you are making a huge mistake which is inconsistent with the philosophy of the story. The other supernova will have found rare and incredible means to boost their own power just like Luffy's crew has. That's a huge theme in this story, they have ambition and nakama just like Luffy's crew. At least some of the Supernova are on par with the new and improved strawhats. Some may be even stronger at the moment, depending on what means they found by miraculous chance or feat (The strawhat's was that they befriended Kuma the Shichibukai, the other supernova's will have done other things like that which have led to their own strength increases, or the story doesn't make sense and there was no reason for supernova going to the new world at the same time of luffy in the race for one piece.

RE: Chapter 617: "The Shocking Incident at Coral Hill" Discussion
@Mr.:
As much as I want to see Hodi get sliced up, this fight between him and zoro only seems like a brief spar before one gets away or there is an interruption. I get a feeling that Hyozo is the one Zoro is going to have a real match against. Anyways it would be anticlimactic. Obviously Luffy will be his opponent.
I don't know that this is obvious since there are currently two enemy captains, not just one. To me it seems more likely that a fight between Luffy and Vander Decken is more imminent than Luffy vs Hodi, since Luffy is with the Princess and that is Decken's goal.

RE: Fairy Taint Discussion II
He's the main character.
It's the same reason why Luffy, Ichigo, etc. will always beat the big bad. They could also lose (then win later) to the big bad, or just run away.
But never will another character BEAT the big-bad. Just not how shonen works.
Who is the narrator?
edit: Is the narrator of the story Lucy? This is a question not an assertion.
Also, I think it's extremely likely that by the end of this arc Natsu will be an S-class mage. Others have said this is unlikely and I'd like to know why. Gildartz who is often called the strongest mage in the guild has already essentially given Natsu his seal of approval, Natsu just defeated a super powerful enemy who his guild master pleaded with him to run from, then told Makarov that it was time to fight and defend Fairy Tale. I would argue that Natsu already passed the S-class exam by this point in the story as far as Makarov is concerned and that it simply has not been stated outright yet.
I also think Grey and Lucy will make S-class in this arc, and that Lucy will defeat the goat stellar spirit.

RE: Fairy Taint Discussion II
I really hope you're not right because that would be incredibly cheesy. Natsu rises again and saves the day? Besides why would she bet her hopes on Natsu if Erza's still on the island. She's an S-class after all.
Really Elfman and Chad have the same seiyuu? Well since you hear Chad's voice only every 100 episodes it's easy to forget. It's not hard to forget about Elfman either it's the first arc were he is properly involved. Yet he's one of the more developed characters in FT with the Lisanna backstory and his fear of losing control again (and letting go of that fear to save his sister). It would be great if someone like him could be in the spotlight for once not the other usual 5.
Reading your posts I agree with you, and especially since Elfman did just manage to defeat his sister (albeit not in a match of power but by distracting her, lol), it would be fitting for him to come rescue both of his sisters right now.
I take back my prediction of Lisanna going super saiyan, I hope you are right and Elfman comes and lays the smack down.

RE: Fairy Taint Discussion II
Eh, I'd put my money on her referring to Natsu, since that's not these things usually end up, though someone else would be a pleasant surprise. I just can't see it being Lisanna unless she flies into a Gohan-esque rage and rips Azuma's head off, and Elfman unfortunately reminds me too much of Chad (they even have the same seiyuu!) to really have faith in him.
So far doesn't it seem like the whole family has demon form though? It would be consistent because Elfman and his older sister have demon forms, so it would almost be weird if Lisanna didn't, so ya I kinda do think she is going to go super saiyan now that her sister is non responsive as a direct result of taking an impact for her.
That or like you said Natsu/Grey or someone like that is going to show and go apeshit for her.

RE: Fairy Taint Discussion II
I really doubt Zeref is going to be the dead one since he was shown in that same vision, looking like he was giving what I assume to be one of those ''this is what you get for being weak, blah blah I'm channeling Hannibal Lector'' speeches. Plus it would be kind of anticlimactic if the hyped ultimate-evil-creator-of-magic-itself Zeref was taken out in the very same arc he was introduced in.
Despite the recent missteps, I have to admit that if Mashima is trying to leave us guessing as to which side will ultimately ''win'' at the end of the arc, he's doing a good job of it.
I think it's likely that Grimoire Heart underestimated the power of Zeref, even in his 'sleep' state.
For instance, Zeref instantly charred black Luffy's scarf which was imbued with a protection enchantment from the great Red Dragon Igneel, which we can assume to be a super powerful entity when we look at what happened to Gildartz from his mere encounter with a different dragon. And for instance, Zeref appears to have the ability to "take life" instantly, rather than messing around with 'fire' and 'earth' or any of the standard elements. Even subconsciously he is so powerful that he can 'remove life' in an area of effect spell (extremely overpowered).
My prediction is that neither Fairy Tale or Grimmoire Heart will 'win'. My belief is that Zeref will win and Grimmoire Heart will go home packing without what they came for, and Fairy Tale won't be able to do anything about Zeref either.
Zeref stated outright that the only person that could defeat him is Natsu, and he was deeply saddened when Natsu attacked him and it wasn't able to harm him at all.
To me this means that Grimmoire Heart very obviously cannot force Zeref into anything he doesn't already want to do, and his reaction to Ultear implies that he is non friendly to Grimmoire Heart.
That said, we'll see what happens when/if Hades approaches Zeref.
Also, does anyone else find it interesting that Natsu, who was bound by the age seal when Luxus was trying to take over Fairy Tale forcefully, and which was never explained other than that Gajeel was also bound by the seal, is directly recognized by Zeref and stated as the only person who can defeat him?
Zeref, who's presumably been sleeping for quite a while recognizing Natsu by name is very interesting to me considering that previous arc.

Zancrow is okay enough to make faces. He's fine.
"Yeah, your super power-up that completely exhausted you? I, uh, kindasorta didn't really feel that."
Then he'd just start playing kick-the-Natsu. It's kinda like kick the can, only dumber.
I'm pretty sure I hate Lisanna. Has she done anything at all since being "revived"? I mean, at all? So far it would seem she exists only to drag other people down. Juvia might've been able to beat Erza if her partner's abilities extended beyond "turn into a fish."
After Oracion Seis and Edoras, I was so proud of this arc, up until the past couple of chapters.
Who do you think her sister meant when she said she believed there was someone on the island who could defeat that opponent?
I think she meant Lisanna. I have a problem with this though because if it turns out to be true it's bullshit that her sister had to do all that crap in the first place, so I better be wrong and Grey better show up or some shit.

RE: Chapter 612:"Led to by the shark we saved" Discussion
It's been so long since last chapter, but at least the chapter was released quickly after the spoilers.
Finally I can end these One Piece addiction withdrawals!
