That was quite the ending. Poor Lyon. Sacrificing himself like that.

And now Midnight's awake. Things can only get worse for our heroes from this point on.
I reject your reality, and substitute my own.

Hm, these arc seems to be quite.. slow paced. Compared to the Laxus arc. If i want slow arcs, I'd want to watch Naruto.

I don't think Lyon is dead, as far as I know nobody has ever died in FT :) I'm sure he'll come back when he's really needed :P

OMG It's MIDNGIHT _O_ Finally awake, I would love to see why they fear Midnight's power but I'm sure Natsu can beat him :D

The pace is a bit slower but it's good so I don't mind... too bad Erza is nock out (but she'll probably awake next episode), that Lucy hasn't been fighting till now and that Natsu didn't fight this episode.. well I hope they will next episode ^^

Oh and do u guys also think that "information" guy is really... suspicious/strange?

I enjoyed the episode but the way they defeated Racer and the reveal about his powers was kind of lame. Did he slow down time for everyone else when he ran halfway across the world to get Jellal in nothing flat?

Still, I liked the grand prix a lot more than I thought I would. I'm not holding my breath that Lyon is actually dead. Looking forward to next week. I want to see Cobra and Midnight in action and hopefully Erza will be back.

Racer posed the same question I did....why did they strip in the first place....I could understand why Gray did it, but Lyon never showed signs of cloth strip until just now...

Oh well, the producers prob did it as a fan service for the girls

When they needed to focus on something, like running in the snow and so on they would strip, even Lyon because Ul taught them that way.

Now back to this episode. The fight between Racer, Gray and Lyon was great, especially the Grand Prix. So if Midnight is awake we will soon see the fight between him and Erza like in the OP.

Lyon and Gray's skin ship was touching to watch.
There a nice duo when there fighting, shame that for the most part Sherry was left out.
Was ironic to see Lyon sacrifice himself for gray and Sherry wonder how it will effect them.

5/5 That was amazing, I loved it!
That was a great fight and the way Racer tried to kill them off near the end was epic. Really have no idea if Lyon was killed off or not, kinda hope he wasn't, but that would be illogical since he was basically holding the bomb. Can't wait to see what Midnight can do : )

Edit: The only thing I found annoying in this episode, was the fact that Racer's ability ONLY slows down people near him. If he doesn't have super speed then why was it left to him to go get Jerral???

btw the fact is supposed to a hidden trick, you know, not for everyone to know. Jellal with his emo mood most probably wouldn't have figured it out like Lyon.

Boys should always fight shirtless ;)
Didn't like the way racer got defeated. So you stare at Gray until he shoots you with ice? Dunno why I am complaining; pretty common in anime \(--)/
Of course Lyon isn't dead right? right?
Amazing BGM during the Prix :D
Midnight<3... Yes!...at least we get to hear his voice this episode. Gotta see more of him.

Being aware or not has nothing to do with the problem (ignoring the fact that Jellal was essentially dead while Racer was transporting him. The problem is if he can only slow down people's perception of time in a limited area, then how did he travel across half the world and back so fast? Without a person's senses to influence, he's just as fast as everyone else, which makes no sense for an actual long distance journey.

-I find the scene where Gray and Leon stripped simultaneously hilarious...along with Sherry's and Racer's reactions xD
-Not sure if this is true but it seems like Lyon may be a better fighter than Gray by a bit...in terms of battle strategy. But I still like Gray more than Lyon :P
-Whoa Gray's super freeze arrow = awesomely and prettily animated 8D
-Was the explosion lacrima in the manga? o.O (i dont think it is hmm..)
-And Midnight is coming =0

Wasn't Lyon defeated in the previous episode by Jellal?
I was kind of wondering how he is still at his top condition if he got beaten down by Jellal in the previous episode.

The hell? The two never even bumped into each other. Jellal only "beat down" Natsu and Brain. But that wasn't really a beat down, it was just him moving them out of the way.


It's not true in all shounen that good guys don't die. But as far as Fairy Tail is concerned, Mashima has yet to grow the balls to kill a good guy. (Beside that one old guy in the Tower of Heaven...)

That was Eligor, not Lyon, though they look the same from behind :)). If you'll notice last episode, the unconscious dude had a tattoo on his back while Lyon here didn't. Plus, this was the first time (adult) Lyon stripped >.<

The fight was great, though some scenes were kind of lame.
Gray on top of that pillar shooting that arrow reminded me of Archer in FSN:UBW. And it was nearly as epic as that.
So yeah, Racer's went suicide-bombing, Lyon sacrificed himself and Midnight's awake.
Things are looking bad for the good guys.
And next week it will be even worse from the way Cobra and Midnight looked in the preview.

Lol apples in the head.

Plothole ftw. Racer wasn't a particularly interesting enemy. It was weird to see him spawning tyres and motorcycles, the latter of which helped Gray (kinda). And Lyon should just go and join Fairy Tail too, his teamwork with Gray is too good, way better than Natsu's haha.

EDIT: I just realised Racer could have spawned a bike to get Jellal, so i guess there's no plothole.

I personally thought this was a fantastic episode, but when they revealed Racer's abilities, it was kind of lame.

I can't wait to see what happens in the next episode though!

I guess that makes sense... : )

Anyway, I hope the other fights don't end in a one hit KO for the bad guys though. Didn't mind it too much in this fight, but it would be lame for such powerful people to keep being taken down in one hit.

How does that not make sense? He speeded away from Brain and then he used the bike to cross the ocean. Perfect sense.
