really like the changes made in the anime, such as having Lisanna and Natsu meet and using that as foreshadowing. The flashback might be a little too much but it actually adds to the emotional punch of their meeting so that's all good. They can really fiddle around with adding information that isn't entirely fillers to "drag" out the episode. I don't mind since more FT is always good.
great to see the reverse version of everyone. I'm not that impressed with the older version of Wendy. She looks less innocent and more cynical.
the anime also adds more scenes on the reverse version, such as Gray's interaction with Juvia.
all in all, a very good introduction to Edoras.
