----------------------------------------
"As it were, Moshimoshi."

-As expected, when it comes to the one-on-one fights, they save the actual fight animations for those and it is so much better because of it. I didn't even mind the DBZ-esque fighting because it was great to see that actual kind of animation in this.

-It's not often you hear the characters comment on why guys always tear off their shirts when in an epic battle.

-I always enjoy seeing the Fairy's as children. It's almost like it was a different time then. Lol'ed at when Natsu was crying, Mirajane went all fangirl on him and Lisanna was all "hands off!"

Well that's some way to do a flashback I guess. And the fight definitely felt dragonballish.

Gajeel is so gonna get raeped now that Natsu has eaten. x]

Cool fight. Nice to see Natsu with the shadow face and red eyes :P

I didn't mind the flashbacks at all. Super awesome when Natsu was revved up cause of emotions but still got beaten down easily. I hate the "winning cause of emotion" plot hack.

Wow. Those flashbacks were so unnecessary and took away from the current story. They couldn't have shown other clips? Or less clips? For me, those ruined it. Up until that point, and everything after (except for the "To be continued" at the end) was awesome. Even the DBZ fighting style of animation.
I reject your reality, and substitute my own.

I like how the anime is showing more details of their past than what is told in the manga, animation was great too, can't wait for the next ep, with makarov coming back it's gonna be a bang.

I loved the flashbacks, it just shows how much the guild truly means to Natsu and everyone. As for the parts of the fight we've seen, that was really epic. The parts when they were in the sky fighting was the best. And good job, Lucy :D

not too bad.....Liking the lack of stock fight footage, and I love it when you see them as kids, but there were just too many of the flashbacks, and some of them weren't necessary. They could have got by with a lot fewer. But still, quite good.

I love seeing Lisanna anyway, I hope it turns out she is alive at some point as it would be a good plot point.

Anyway as for the ep, I enjoyed it, I always find Natsu to be a little bit better than most of the leads in similar anime so it's nice to see one focused pretty much on his fight.

Lolz at the DBZ fight. At least they're actually animating the fights this time instead of just using a bunch of still shots although the episode could've used less flashbacks. Still waiting for my
cameo.

Aya Hirano and KugiRie still as ear grating as ever.

Hmm..they are great. Just not in the middle of a fight scene.

And I totally agree with this. Umm....Lucy got the c**p beaten out of her, Natsu too, and not one of them had an injurie thats even remotely significant. I mean, if they were real, they would have died from that, and I know they're in a cartoon, and they're lead roles, but can they at least show a little blood? It adds drama, if nothing else, and makes the beating just that bit more believable. Even if they kept their line dash bruisey things for at least a while after they recieve them it would make for a more dramatic fight......

"Correct, moshimoshi."
"But where are you saluting, too?"

Nice fight animation, so that's where the fight budget goes to. I lol'ed at the DBZ like aura and fighting but it's cool. Lucy, Happy and those Phantom members' comments when they get hit is annoying at times. A little too much flashback but it was good. Nice face at the end, Natsu. Ending song, Happy's 'To be continued' and Lucy's comment totally ruined the mood.

Woot, next episode is Makarov. We'll get to see some greater action. Hope they animate "that" correctly but I won't get my hopes up...

Okay, so once again we're cut off from ending this crazy thing. I have no idea why they decided to utterly destroy Fairy Tail's home, how are they going to fix that?

Hah, but the fight was DBZ awesome. Half-naked dragons going crazy, that's Fairy Tail's best. :D

Only the flashback that was meaningless, that was the only low point.

Dammit Gajeel win!!!!Al lthat damn Iron around you use it idiot! I still cant believe Lucy is just standing around like that after Gajeel was beating the crap out of her.The flashbacks were a little necessary, but when they started showing Lucy in the flash backs I felt it was unnecessary.

I know I'm not the only one who loves Mirajane's old attire and hair style. I really wish she would put all that back on.

It makes me happy and sad to see Lisanna. I sure hope they bring her back to life because other than Erza and Happy, she's my other favorite, haha. :P

I agree that Lucy's comments take the intensity out of the action scenes, but really, at this point, I think the animators are going for more -insert here- kind of comedy rather than drama. It's obvious since they haven't bothered trying to make a cliffhanger a cliffhanger but ends each episode on a more lighthearted, jesting way. And if you just accept that, I think you'll enjoy FT more.

And for once, Lucy is useful! Gotta love Sagittarius, my sign, heh.

Wasn't too happy about how far they went with the flash backs, but they were used for a good cause. Though I think that most fans know how important Fairy Tail is to Natsu.

Nice fight scenes and I guess they could be leaning to a bit of DBZ, but not too terribly.

Just annoying how censored this is compared to the manga, would like to see the injuries and blood; not vague bruises and dirty faces. A little blood wouldn't hurt.

Otherwise nice episode and it was nice not to see recycled scenes for the fight.

A1 could've done a better job with Cana's reactions to the guild being destroyed, but this is one of the better episodes they've made so far so I don't really mind.

That flashback made tears well up in my eyes.

I really can't stand the censors either, but I'm pretty used to it now especially after Hitman Reborn. At least FT has punches in the face and stuff.

Man one big turn of events after another!!

This is what a fkng shounen should be about. It feels like no air time is wasted. Wish there are more flashbacks imo. Easily could make a spinoff series just with all the loli fairy tail members. I emo'd again when Lisannas tombstone came up. I'm still surprised the master got owned by that one guy.
To his defense, he was caught off guard.
Well the fire is back in natsu so now he's gonna win. Natsu kinda reminds me of popeye, Hehe getting his ass kicked by Brutus untill he eats his spinach (aka fire)

WHERE THE HELL IS EP 28!

Correct Moshimoshi!!

Loved the flashbacks, too. I had some tears in my eyes, I must admit. Cannot wait to see episode 28, damn you cliffhanger!

I don#t think that Lucy is useless, without Saggitarius Natsu would not have been able to eat some fire.

But I must agree that FT is way too much censored. I dont want to have masses of blood, but after Lucy or Natsu got beatem up so badly they should have more critical looking wounds, rather than just some scratches.

Really? Does this means that the manga is much more scarier than the anime fights?

No, the content is about the same, there's just a lot more blood and eviscerating in it.

Amazing fight! I don't see why so many people are complaining about the flashbacks, it was showing how much the guild truly meant to him. And you can't tell me you didn't think it was cute seeing more child Natsu and Lisanna. Although it was extremely sad seeing Lisanna's grave in one of the flashbacks. ;___;

I like Gajeel as an antagonist, but I still can't wait for Natsu to kick his ass. Natsu is so awesome when he's raging. P:
