Fairy Tail just pulled a seven year time skip. ಠ_ಠ

[Gargravarr]

First I was annoyed at the cruel cliffhanger, but then I calmed down by staring at the title page for a while.

Also, I wish someone would just beat the crap out of Rufus and get it over with. I also have a nasty feeling tha battle royale will get interrupted by whatever Arcadios is planning and all the teams will have to join foces to win, resulting in Sabertooth turning out to be "not so bad after all". ¬_¬

[Gargravarr]

Ah. Well, it didn't continue the story, but that chapter was rather enjoya- *sees page 25* OH GOD THE HORROR!!

[Ƨɒlƚy]

Ultra-fanservice chapter.

And Ichiya.

Bandage-Ren was funny, tho.

[Gargravarr]

Mavis was cute in the pool, too.

[Marie Rose]

That's her purpose nowadays.

[Gargravarr]

I wonder if they'll keep this story silent in the anime as well.

[Gargravarr]

Finally, Sting does something I can actually respect.

I'm really, really sick of Minerva looking smug all the time, though.

[Ƨɒlƚy]

Double Homicide tiem.

Also, Gajeel's new getup looks pretty damn silly.

[Gargravarr]

The old guy has a point. This is basically the same argument as going back in time and killing Hitler.

The old guy has a point. This is basically the same argument as going back in time and killing Hitler.

More to the point, this is the exact same type of time-loop plot that ended up happening in Rave Master.

As an aside, that just ended up solving two of the more dangling plot points I remembered.

[Gargravarr]

Which plot points?

[Ƨɒlƚy]

Which plot points?

Natsu and Gajeel's age, and just how/why Zeref knew and was looking for Natsu.

[Gargravarr]

Those were resolved?

[Ƨɒlƚy]

Those were resolved?

No, but it's obvious how they're going to be.

To wit. Time. Travel.

[Gargravarr]

Well that would certainly explain Zeref knowing Natsu, but I don't know how time travel would explain Natsu and Gajeel's ages. If by that you mean how they were held back by Freed's barrier in the Fighting Festival arc.
