Admittedly, it was obvious, but also done a lot better than I expected. The fact what she did ended up being on a much bigger scale was a nice touch, it's cliche but she saved a lot of people and I felt sad for her death, especially as she didn't believe she did anything useful.

Ultear is a hero.

If you don't have the balls to kill off one of your characters for good and you don't want to take your manga seriously, then why should any of us?

Odds are, Ultear is still alive since almost no one dies in this manga.

this chapter was awesome in one word.

A long time passed since one of FT chapters moved me so much as this one. Everything was just the way it had to be. I'm pleased

That moment of dispair when Ultear dies full of regret, seeing as she didn't achieve anything with her life, yet everything changed. From her perspective and all that, it was great psychological development of ones character, also the reverse we got after the cliffhanger that Grey died last chapter was resolved in a great way...This way, everything could be done with only 1 min of backtracking time, and not repeating the whole time travel thing/going back to the beginning of the arc or even further, and forming a loop that would complicate everything even further. Now, time won't stand still and it can go the straight path Jellal showed between the 2 futures that were brought to us as possibilites (F Rogue and F Lucy), it is literally the minute that made the rail turn the train we're on into a different future.
This world is mine. I think this world may even just be a long, long dream I'm watching. You guys may just be illusions, and it can't be proven whether or not you really exist either. In other words, this world was created with me at the center. So what will happen if I die? I don't know. My imagination isn't very creative; I just can't imagine myself dying. In other words, there is no way this world can completely disappear. But if I die, then everyone will disappear. I am the only one in this world who won't disappear. The rest are just people I see as if in a dream.

meh not even sure if ultear even died. it's possible she hasn't mastered the spell since she was told not to by hades before, so was only able to reverse time by a minute and thus not use her all of her own time, but nonetheless exhaust herself. i'd say it's very much within the realm of FT possibility.

this !!

Glad that Gray didn't die there, though Ultear's action is somewhat predictable. I sorta laughed when she said "My life is only worth 1 minute?" XD Anyway, RIP Ultear, your mum shall be very proud of you. =)

Hope the next chapter will be more exciting!

Well first of all.. Ultear didn't give her life for a special someone.
Since she wanted time to go back to the point before the gate was opened, she had a bigger goal there.
She's a hero here. She saved lot's of people probably and not only the life's lost in the battle but probably all over the world.
The sad thing is, that she doesn't even know what she did. She doesn't know she saved Gray and a bunch of others. And that's jsut.. sad 8( ..
Even though i'm happy 'cause my beloved Gray is back, my mood is somewhere in between "*_* & ";_;"

I would have thought her life was worth at least 5 minutes. That would have been better than a whole 60 seconds.

I could bash all those posts calling this epic/awesome/superb writing. I could make fun of Hiro for being a godawful writer. Or, and that's what I'm going to do, I can put on my hamster face and call this chapter's art pretty (because that's the only good thing I have to say about FT). :3

Also, Ultear is not dead. You'd have to be an idiot to believe otherwise.

I get her logic, but I'm still not happy she's dead and Gray isn't. This arc has been crappy since the start of the Fairy Games, and the high point of the arc (Gray's death) was just erased with some sappy garbage that "changes the fate of humanity".

Gray dying would have (ironically) provided some much needed life to this series, which is growing more and more bland by the chapter. A shame for such a once great series.

That was predictible as hell, but what's worse now when i see the idea od Ultear's spell I know it could be done in much better way. If only Ultera's sacrifice wasn't suggested so strongly in last 2 episodes and instead even more people would die, her spell would be unexpected and epic. Now it's just "meh"

Keep in mind though, there was a stroke of brilliance (providing it stays, and isn't merely foreshadowing)



She dies not knowing she "saved humanity".

I absolutely loved this chapter.
Okay, Mashima finally had the 'balls' to kill an important person off, but that would be just wrong. Ultear is loved by everyone and pretty important, so I think it's good that she died, although I and everyone else loved her. I mean, everything she's been through and especially the part with Gray made this the perfect opportunity for her to die. On some other forums people were angry that Gray didn't die and I don't see why. IMO, I love him and he's less cliche than Natsu and Lucy, while I can't help loving those two and especially Natsu.
Anyway, I don't like that she died, but I'm glad that she died instead of Gray and the others. I really like her, but Mashima needs to keep her dead. It's highly possible that this won't happen though, since she doesn't know she saved people's lifes and actually saved everyone and the world if you ask me. That's why he might bring her back because he WILL feel bad for her. Mashima is a pussy, but a genius one.

One other thing: I understand it's necessary to keep everyone apart from each other, but everyone is all over the place and nobody knows what's going on with each other + the chapters are going slow, so that kinda makes me sad. For example, almost nobody knew in the previous chapter that Gray died, and now nobody (except for Gray, maybe) knows that Ultear just died and saved 5 lifes.

Plot holes. Plot holes everywhere.


It's only a plothole if you don't take the step to reach the obvious conclusion. Does everything have to be spelled out for you?

I can think of at least a few reasons why Ultear's spell wouldn't benefit the 'bad' guys. I can think of those myself, so I don't need an explanation in the middle of it happening.

I can also come up with ways in which it could benefit the bad guys, but the knowledge that it didn't, it wouldn't make sense, and it simply wasn't what the way the author wrote it as, is enough for me to accept it for what it was

It's simple. The bad guys would see themselves killing their opponents. At least those with higher intelligence than that of a drone. So it doesn't really change anything since they would see the future that would have been where they actually kill their targets. So to them seeing 1 minute into an obsolete future is pointless. Where as their victims now know of the attack that ends them and can act accordingly which would also only further confuse the bad guys.

my first thought when i saw the cover was, 'ultear is gonna do something.' and she did. thank you for that 1 minute.

i just hope someone realizes what that 1 minute meant for ultear. let natsu or lucy figure it out, since they weren't even in this one. XD

instead of a raging juvia, which always happens, i would've thought her in despair is expected, considering it was her stupidity which caused the tragedy of the previous chapter. i was actually more moved with lyon's tears than her face. i'd like it to be a wake-up call for her, somehow.

i wonder what that 1 minute means next week, with the counterattack and all.

"My life was only worth one minute", poor Ultear she dies not knowing how important her technique was.

Still as the chapters go by everything is feeling both rushed and uneven, even more than usual by Fairy Tails standard. Are these current volumes or chapters in Japan not doing so good that Hiro is trying to move forward as possible?

to all the people saying mashima doesnt have the balls to kill off characters...have you read Rave Master?

So many characters died in Rave it was a saddd manga, thats why mashima wanted to make FT a "fun", happier manga with no one dying

And Rave is probably one of the greatest mangas out there of all time, IMO

Nice episode, we all knew Ultear was going to trade her life to turn back time, but I was impressed by the writing - turned what I thought would be a cliche into a rather poignant issue.

The pathos of Ultear dying in despair thinking that her life was only worth a minute, without knowing how essential a single minute can actually be. Nice juxtaposition there, excellent writing.

Of course Ultear is probably not "dead" dead, redemption generally has its rewards.

Forgetfullness, your name is very appropriate. That Ultear could change time has been known for over 300 issues and that it was "ancient magic" for nearly as long. How much foreshadowing do you need? Or is it possible you just don't understand what an "asspuhl" is?
