Doranbolt you are my hero for saving Wendy, I didn't seriously think Wendy would die until we got those little flashback moments and then I found my self saying please don't do a Rave Master (the death from volume 16, really hated this one).

onwards to part 3, wonder how many parts there will be.

That was a horrible chapter tbh. All the emotional build-up and that shitty ass-pull...

It's impossible to take this series seriously now, all the bad guys will die and the good guys will never fucking die. Actually, I should have never taken it seriously as the series has proved over and over that it doesn't mind throwing good writing out the window. Screw it.

And Charlie can see the future; she claimed that they wouldn't make it if they destroyed face....nice way to make a plot hole.

Yes it is. Charlie legitimately said "in other words, we won't make it either" meaning that because it's blank they have no future

She could look into the future and pick out possible futures. She can do that, yet her power conveniently fails after? That doesn't make any sense; seems like Hiro is just making shit up to create drama.

Oda has said he doesn't like to kill off his characters because death is not big enough of a punishment.

I can't believe I fell for that lol . When They pressed the button I was like "they are gonna make it somehow" and then I became uncertain with the flashbacks/explosion even though I know FT won't be finishing any important character who just became more powerful, but the moment I saw 2 pages remaining lol( Happy Survival style #2)

Same shit over and over again, the majority of this chapter was wasted teasing two deaths that we all knew Mashima did not have the balls to actually do. I don't really care that Mashima refuses to kill off characters, what annoys me is that he keeps putting character into a situation where they should die or spending a lot time setting up what appears to be character death, only to write himself out of it using deux machina, plot convinces or a huge ass pull. Why didn't Mashima just end the threat of Face when it was destroyed and used the rest of the chapter to cover something else.


How the hell was Carla able to learn information about Face from her premonition in which the situation was the same just a few second later. How did this future version of herself know this information when the present version didn't. The writing in this series has always been laughable, but this has just reached a new plateau of shit writing. I don't know which is worse this or Erza's Nakama armour. 1/5

Certain clarifications that need to be made: FT doesn't follow the one-timeline logic but the multiple-timelines logic. Carla simply "made contact" with herself in that one timeline(call it X) where X-Carla somehow was already capable of casting said spell.

As for the whole she was supposed to die thing, well, apparently she was in a hurry and misinterpreted her subsequent blackout as death OR in timeline-X there was no Doranbalt to save them and they truly died.

With that said, this is easily not classified as good writing. There are myriads of situations where Carla's power could have been put to use , to the point that one can say she has the potential of learning every magic. It's too convenient with no established rules as to it's limitations , unless you count some sort of abstract "oh I can't control it properly" as a limitation which works and doesn't work according to Hiro's will. One thing's for certain and that is that Carla's ability has been used consitently for fake mommentary build up.

Funny thing is how everyone loves this chapter cuz Wendy is involved. If it was Natsu everyone would shout in sync "king of asspulls". Seriously what's the matter with you folks and lolis???

exactally, if major characters were killed here we wold not have enough of them for the final arc. i feel that some of them will die but maybe in the final battle with zeref or acnologia or somewhere close to it. some minor characters could be killed here though.

and i would hate it if wendy had died just after she learned how to fight. killing a dragon slayer is pointless for they need to be preserved till the end.

if we expect dragons to appear then how would dragon grandine react if she found wendy dead even before meeting her. those who want wendy dead, did you think that way.
who will fight acnologia in the end if slayers died here... natsu alone can't do everything, right??

Oda has said he doesn't like to kill off his characters because death is not big enough of a punishment.


I read somewhere that Oda states that Luffy fights with the intent of severe punishment, such as completely undermining the goals and ambitions of said opponent as the character believe that it's a worse punihsment than death (he'd rather have them see their "dreams" fall apart themselves), which make sense if you look at the character.

OT" No afro? I am disappoint, Mashima.
Kidding~ But seriously, I knew Wendy wouldn't die. But it was still a nice moment. Death isn't completely necessary in a series like FT, it's more "light hearted" so I'm totally fine with it. 'twas an alright chapter overall, the pedophile Mest was obviously watching the whole thing :P

Alright chapter, no buildup of suspense, nothing surprising happened but it was nice to see Wendy and Charle "willing" to take one for the team. Although it really just came off as a copout from Mashima's standpoint.

While I do agree Wendy should have died here, hell, she shouldn't of been introduced to begin with. However, Naruto, One Piece, or Bleach would never in a million years have killed off a major character that's been around for hundreds of chapters at such an unimportant point in the story. There was no "epic battle" albeit the drama was there.

Very nice chapter indeed, but was it really necessary to build up this scene so much only to break it down afterwards?
While I don't want them to die, if you build it up that much (and it was build up well) then go through with it. I feel like some death one way or another is necessary and yet they get saved at the very end.

Good chapter with a disappointing ending.
For those who seek perfection, there can be no rest on this side of the grave.
Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.

It´s not the fact that wendy and carla survived this that makes this a bad chapter. Hiro created the "face will blow up cenario" for this chapter. It´s just so unnecessary. Had face just shut off he could have done something more interesting with the chapter.
We all knew they wouldn´t die. No tension was felt. Please don´t waste our time. We just read this series for the fanservice chapters... oh wait not that.

This chapter, I just lol'd, nothing else to say.
Deaths in Fairy Tail? Never, unless we're talking about the enemies: Brain ,Hades, Zancrow, the rest? No.
The only death we've witnessed was Ultear's, sadly.

But yeah, like Talk no Jutsu from Naruto where every villains get charmed by words and sacrifice themselves for the greater cause, here we have PLOT ARMOR, every character that is important for the fanservice will never be killed off.

Hahahah I hate to break it to you, but Ultear isn't dead either. She's just like 90 years old now. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4bpsuVHolno/UdbezhpG_EI/AAAAAAAAI-o/yrzkHWoBqHk/19.png?imgmax=3000 That woman is Ultear.

The only good guy who I can think of who actually died for real in the series timeline (and not prior to it) was Simon.
