Not shabby, though the fight had more dialogue than I hoped for. And Gray's line about remembering hotter flames was way more epic in the manga. Regardless, nice win there at the end. :D

Fun little filler too with Happy's idea with Mira and Lucy. XD

I think this was the longest time Gray stayed in an outfit before taking it off...
Also thought Ice Make Unlimited was very Erza-inspired.

The whole getting-beat-up and then destroying the enemy is getting old..this is why I enjoy Erza's fights more in general...she at least puts up a decent fight (at least in my memory).

Bad animation, the poses were not the same in the manga, the dialogs were not well placed, the fight was not smooth when Gray defeats Rufus, that part had to be epic with Dragon Force as background ost and send us this shit. Horrible, disappointed me this "new animation".


Same. :\

I like how this show, for the most part, doesn't use willpower as the determining factor. They use more power or something smart. Like how he made the ice make magic to fast for him to read. Which is crazy considering Rufus read those books.

Kinda weird how you say it completely backward. Only a few battles like this that has some strategies in it, the rest and especially Natsu's fights are complete willpower factored.

Minagatachi said:
Every woman in the audience simultaneously came when Grey took his shirt off. On another note Rufus has the coolest, most overpowered magic in the series. He should have just memorized some magic from Jellal and Jura when they were fighting

Jellal and Jura magics are on another league for him to copy though, you will understand why soon.


For the episode I enjoyed this fight in Manga a lot but they drag it out so much here which ruins the mood for me here...

Kinda better animation from the last 2 eps.
I had the feeling of One Piece pace in this one, dunno why.
3/5 because Gray with Rufus' hat reminded me of a Cavendish-Oga combo :P

Gray takes a beating, but continues to get up and take more of a beating.

Gray strips.

Gray destroys opponent.

Gray puts on hat, looks completely badass.

Results: Gray should keep the hat.

Fan service this episode was fun, it's always nice to see Mirajane.

I'm still having difficulty with this new animation. It's kinda crappy. I miss the old style, and I really never thought I'd say that about Fairy Tail animation.

The fight was good, usual FT fight scene. Gray's fights have never been that big of a deal for me, much prefer watching Erza or Natsu fight. Even Lucy has had some good fights, wonder what Leo has been up to? Wonder if we'll get a good Mirajane battle since Natsu's group will be attacked next episode?

Oh, well. I'll give this one 7/10.
Odds are I'm not going to find my way back to a thread after my first post, it happens on occasion but not often. So, if I say something that offends you and you feel the need to force your opinion on me because obviously everyone should have your opinion or none at all, feel free to post it in the thread that I'll probably never see again. However, if you are interested in intelligent discourse, feel free to message me.

What an episode, this episode just adapted one chapter and got streched into an whole episode. So we get some filler with Natsu's group, but fun filler, I like how they mentioned it was a waste of time, kind of acknowledge it's filler.

Also, in a prison known as hell there is a couple of swimsuits...
Where did they come from? O.o Damn filler.

Honestly I couldn't tell the difference when the art is good and when it is bad I just enjoy the anime, and manga for what it is, Plot, characters, fights. And when someone decides not to watch simply because of the art, it just doesn't seem, practical.

I was expecting something more from Gray vs Rufus fight, but it was fine i guess.

Also it was hilarious when he took his shirt off and how everyone reacted to it :D

Decent episode.

The way they showed Juvia multiple times was so forced, and I was like "ughhh". Showing her once or twice would've been enough. On top of it, she kept saying the same thing again and again.

Lol at "He took it off" Finally Ice Make Unlimited! I still am mad at the animators for ruining the art and animation related to my fav. male character i.e. Gray. Lucy's fine so I am thankful for that but with Gray, the treatment is horrible.

Anyways, "I've dealt with hotter flames".

Don't know what to think anymore. If only Fairy Tail could become it used to be... I am getting tired of saying this again and again... Wish those times could come when I looked forward to every episode like my week wouldn't be complete without it.

The episode was good - the animation was a bit static but I am hoping they're just saving money to animate the climax of this arc the way it deserves.

Shirtless Gray with Rufus's hat... now, isn't that worth memorizing...

Did anyone notice how big-sized Lily's face is just completely messed-up in the preview?

I wanted to see the ice bringer animated and I get what ? gray posing with 2 ice swords on a ice background!! dissapointed, very dissapointed!!

I am greatfull that gray looks more like a adult now.. in the old FT he looked like a 10 year old.. his eyes and hair are god now..same with Erza.. god, Erza is great now

I know what you mean. I was disappointed a bit as well because it was done so much better in the manga. The fight could have been a lot better if the animators tried a bit harder but in the end it felt a bit underwhelming :/

I am glad that A-1 added a few scenes here and there to extend the fight,but it still came cross as lackluster, you would think someone with Memory-Make magic who has seen most of the fights that have transpired in the GMG would have been more devastating e.g using Nastu's bullshit magic spell that somehow managed to overpower a dragon force union raid or a magic that can negate other peoples magic from that person from Lamia Scale.

What is it with most Fairy Tail ‎antagonists having little to no durability? I mean Rufus got taken out in two moves and last episode was basically most of the competition being one shotted and that includes Bacchus.

About the art and animation it was very meh, still a lot of still images which made the fight look static at times and was it just me or did any other manga readers feel like some of the attacks namely the Sword of Frozen Black Lightning and the Dance of Chaos did not look nowhere as good as they were in the manga.

Parts that made me lol Gray telling Rufus not to "cheat" cough hypocrite cough, the message about how he died with a boner for Mira, well a least he died happy. Forgot to mention it before, but this show has the most boring eye catchers I ever seen in an anime. Overall 2/5

No it's gross.
Don't need to see a little girl strip.

Fuck what everybody say, I'm enjoying the animation, and ive been rewatching the first series in dub, also the animation is still the same when it comes to slideshow fights.

I had to laugh when lily was reading that guy's diary, and Natsu's face at 14:59 speaks look at that ass.

Gray sir, that was bad ass, for a second there at the end you looked like Ace.

5/5 for me, Fairy Tail is still awesome, ive been looking forward to it since Magi left me.

Phew!
That 'Ice Bringer' that totally stole the victory!

Gray was pulling out some serious magic stunts in that fight.
Though, I still think 'Memory Make' magic is still better in terms of overall strength.
I also kind of wanted a frontal view of Gray when he was wearing Rufus' hat.
But, whatever.

I thought that the part where Natsu's group tried to seduce the guards was pretty funny.
Poor Lucy, getting all but dragged into it.

I can definitely see Juvia and Gray ending up together at this point in time, but it's most likely just me...and the shippers out there.

Looking forward to see what the next episode brings!

I liked the previous animation! Someone's stronger than you leave it at that! But no just cuz of your friends you get powerful and how many times will they keep saying those corny lines! So annoying! Bad Episode by the way!
Stupid fillers Boring fight! Wasn't into it at all!
Something with the animation pisses me off! Its making them look like kids! And I'm sure the damages both of them suffered should have at least produced blood.

Yes good point. It's different from Naruto who just keep coming back up no matter how many times he was defeated, in the end had to borrow kyuubi chakra.

This whole time I was like, "there's something missing." Then when gray stripped I was like, " fixed "
LOLOL me too.

Btw is it just me or....Natsu seems pretty excited about see Lucy in her swimsuit. I mean from the last series he is not that interested.
