Hmm, I actually thought the fight was kinda interesting, at least from a different perspective now with Natsu being in another setting.

What Natsu is fighting against made the boss stand out more than any other rival in this arc.I wonder how Natsu isn't dizzy flying around like that. Good to see this fight coming to a close though. The spirit world liberated and everyone is back to normal. Finally. Even Aquarius is on board with the others.

Best part about this episode was there not being a time gap with the real world after all although that needed to happen so no surprise really. Well ok filler being over was actually the best, but still...

Probably one of the best episodes of this filler, enjoyed the fight quite a bit. Glad to see everyone back to normal and it was touching when the spirits gave their keys to Lucy.

Finally out of the fillers! :)

That was sort of fun, really learned that eating something crazy just might do the trick! lol.

Well, it was nice to see Lucy getting her keys back at the end, I think I might miss some of their other side.

Wanted to say that nothing changed at the end, but they really had to push something out :O

How the hell Natsu was able to drink out from the core? Not only that, but he even destryoed it with a by-product flame. That was quite a convenient asspull.

Everyone and everything returns to normal again. Too bad, the Celestial Spirits' memories have been reset. At least, I wished Loke would remember himself saying that he hates woman. XD

Overall, this arc was pretty average but still an enjoyable one. Hope the next one will be much better.

Definitely a solid conclusion to a shaky filler arc. Glad all the Celestial Spirit crap is over and they're all back to normal. Looking forward to seeing all the Omake chapters get adapted and the light novel, and come April we'll finally see the Sun Village/Tartarus arcs get adapted!

It was a great end to an arc that had its ups and downs I admit, but I still enjoyed it.

Anyway the battle ended like it usual does with Natsu just willing his way to victory. As usual it gets to be the big hero. I thought it was a nice visuals.

In the end everything works out, big surprise. Anyway I get my wish, Yukino gets to see the real Celestial World, though I still want her to be invited to the next human / celestial party, so don't forget to bring her next time Lucy. You can bring Hisui to if you want. Speaking of Hisui, I hope next time, she doesn't screw up again.

The celestial spirits now remember anything, it does make any character development meaningless, because they don't remember anything, it is like it never happen. I still think they should have retained some of heir memories sub contentiously, you should have made that most celestial wizards are jerks as major part of their motivation, they would have a point for rebelling. Oh well. And we don't see what happened to Ophiucus. I wonder what happened to her, did she return to Yukino or not.


It was nice to see everything is okay, Gray is less of jerk to Juvia, so yay for that, and we get to see Luffy again and to see Gonzales again right by Lucy's side until the time comes to give Gonzales to Lucy's pink haired daughter. You know that is going to happen.

Anyway next week, if cuteness could kill, I would be dead, you thought "Welcome Home Frost" was one thing, Fro is cute, but in my opinion Fro is second in cuteness in the series to Asuka who will be featured next week, the Natsu and Asuka story is animated at last, and we have a great shipping moment which I won't spoil, so have that and Asuka, next week is going to be awesome.

Yeah it's over! Good episode decent way to end the arc. This arc had it's problem but just like over filler with semi canon material I just take way the bare minimum of the plot as canon.

Basically the Eclipse gate corrupted the spirits, they rebellion though Fairy Tail does not know the reason and with Yukino try to fix it. While looking for answers Princess Hisui and Arcadios come and explain. The spirits want to perform Liberum which will free the spirits of all contracts but only for 12 days then die. FT battle the spirits individually and defeat them during that time Ophiuchus appears and is working with the 12 zodiacs but is not with them. Later it turns out the King was corrupted too and is going on a rampage and will destroy the spirit world and 12 zodiac wanted to escapes even if it meant for only 12 except Ophiuchus who is just loyal to the king. FT battle the King and all goes back to normal with the spirits not remembering any of it but the kings words about a dark dream that felt nostalgic do sound worrying maybe foreshadowing something in the future. Story stand point this is probably the best to take from the arc.

Now on to the omakes and the light novel next episode is the adaptation of my favorite omake hope it's done right.

Don't forget, after the omake chapters (plus one extra anime-original episode), we'll be getting some episodes based on a Fairy Tail novel. But the novel is very short, so it should end anywhere between two and four episodes.

As for it being canon and not filler..."canon" and "filler" are not mutually exclusive. Anime filler is meant to pad things out for the manga to get ahead. And while the omake chapters are based on the manga, they're still side stories ("omake" means "extra"). And the fact that they're being inserted into the anime between the main story to make sure the manga gets far enough ahead really makes it no different from filler. But that doesn't make it automatically bad. At least, depending on how well the adaptation turns out.

In short, it's filler based on omake. And a short novel.

Why don't you consider these as part of main story? Does everything have to be about huge fights and dragons in this anime?

Im glad it's over. Seriously,the "Natsu absorbs magic and gets a new power up" plot setup is really getting old.
Can't wait for the omakes. But I'm a bit sad though. In the Natsu and Atsuka episode coming out,Lucy is not wearing the outfit she wore in the chapter! I'm getting so tired of the same blue and yellow outfit she's been wearing for like a hundred episodes!

I've noticed one thing in the new ED since it started. When Loke's pic comes up, I dunno what expression he's supposed to have but, to me, his eyes look extremely kind. Dunno why. Maybe I'm just weird.

Anyway, Asuka next ep. Looking forward to it. ^^

Judging from the average number of pages on a Fairy Tail episode discussion, Fairy Tail seems to be losing popularity lately. Maybe it's because of the filler arc...
