Fairy Tail Anime Episode Discussion Thread [Episode 165 and Onward]

[xKeir]

It reminded me of the filler episode way back when they switched bodies.

Hilarious episode is Hilarious

[kitten320]

A much better episode than the last one. I really hope they will keep butt gang appearances to the minimum.

Can't wait for actual arc beginning.

Funny, I hated that one but loved this one...

[thundrakkon]

The most recent episode was entertaining, although full of illogical events.

I'm looking forward to the start of this new filler arc. That girl really look similar to Lucy.

[ShiroiRyu]

Oh man ...
This filler ...
This fight ... Poor Erza !

It's not so illogical when you wrap your mind around what Fairy Tail has been about thus far:

Magic wizard people doing magic wizard people magic and stuff.

:O I merely stated that it reminded me of that episode.

That being said, i thought they were both funny to me Seeing how it's only filler, i guess i tend to bring my expectations way lower.

Funny ep this week

- Invisible thief Happy!
- Invisible naked Lucy striking poses in public.
- Everyone painting her face
- Erza playing grown-up again, reminds me of the time travel episode.
- Lucy crying buckets, literally xD

So I just finished the Daphne arc and I gotta say I liked it a lot ^_^

I was wondering a lot why Gray teamed up with her and it had me in suspense. Though i don't get why he couldn't just tell everyone before hand and they come up with a plan.

I found this arc more emotional than some others in a good way. I felt like Daphne was truly evil sometimes, then other times i felt like she was just a hurting person. Maybe she was just a mix.

Juvia and Gray's Unison Raid is one of the coolest in the series. Want to see more of those kind hopefully.

I like Gajeel's idea to have Lucy use Sagittarius as a conduit for everyone's power to send to Natsu. I've always liked that idea and don't know why it's not used more often in here. Hopefully we can see it more later on.

The whole arc felt like a little movie to me, especially since it was only 4 episodes and took place over 1 day only.

I really really... wonder what "poses" Lucy did while she was invisible... (cause the last one she did... has a "AHHHH <3"... Lucy is so perverted at times.... LOL)

Black Hair Lucy was cute... ~By Mirajane

And that Potion... might actually be the strongest magic there is... Think about it, if used on the "Black Dragon"... the Black Dragon would just.... disappear (no need to fight it...) - tho not sure if you're "existence disappeared" can you still touch physical objects...


LOL @ Natsu... he only remembered due to "Habit", FUN.



I am actually fond of this filler arc(s) - since there's more than 1 all stuffed into this arc.
And they're all really really fun arcs (except for some weird ones... LOL)

I doubt the potion would work on anyone who was too "notable", since other people's memories of them would be too strong. You might forget someone you just happen to know, but the dragon that wiped out your entire family/city/country? No way.

Spoiler for Episode 128:

It's official:

This filler arc has gotten off to an awesome start! It almost makes up for the break in the manga's run.

This new character, Michelle Lobster? I think I've taken quite a liking to her. It's nice they spent virtually the whole episode letting us get to know her better. And yet there's that obvious mystery about her, so I won't be taking my eye off her.

The episode even brought up little plot details I've wished I could've seen more of in the manga, like Macao actually working as the master, or what the heck happened to Lisanna's grave ever since she came back alive.

The best part was the reveal that Lucy had a relative she never knew about.

"Lucy's old man had an illegitimate daughter!"

That is by far one of the greatest things to come out of Happy's mouth.

Also, most-likely-homosexual bandits scaring people? Eh... Make of that what you will.

Next week: Natsu vs. Laxus? Effing YES. I guess Laxus is doing other stuff since he's still an independent wizard. But the preview seems to focus on Gray and Erza shipping (and Juvia's natural reactions), as well as the return to the nice and obscure Vanish Brothers, who haven't been seen since episodes 3 and 4. I wonder if they've learned anything.

[sergel02]

Lol Lobster.

Anywho, flawless start to a flawless arc. Though i wanted to see more action. I wonder why Lucy's magic wasn't working. I'm calling it now, Michelle is some spirit/robot/cockblocker person.

Really interested to see where this arc goes. Makes me wonder how they are going to get the whole story across in the next 8 episodes (3 have aired already, and FT openings usually last around 13 episodes). Unless they plan on stretching it out a bit longer. My guess, and it happened with the Daphne/Edolas arc, is that the filler arc might go one for more than 10 episodes and spill into the next arc's opening and ending themes.

Seeing how this arc has truly started, i wouldn't really mind tbh. I found this opening more mature than other story starts in Fairy Tail, and I really want to know what happens next.

[Quarkboy]

Couple of notes:

I originally spelled her name "Robstar", just because I thought spelling it normally as "Lobster" was just silly... But then I remembered Sugar Boy etc, and how Fairy Tail has people with ridiculous sounding english names all the time, so I just spelled it the way it would normally be, Lobster. A Japanese person watching the show would definitely think of "Lobster" when they hear her name.

And second: Why do people seem to think the object is shaped like a key? (Because the name of the arc is Key to the Starry Sky?)
I thought the ending animation pretty much shows that it's a hand of a clock (probably needs to be paired up with a minute or hour hand to activated something...)

[Tempest35]

...and who here was worried about the fillers being bad...?

It's the quick stand-alone eps that are the problem apparently... Anyway, like others have said, it's a great start. Doesn't feel out of phase from the normal tone of the series at all - except that we all know that it's a filler.

Asuka-chan riding on Makarov...so cute.

[MAX_COLA_POWER!]

So how long will it take the folks in the image thread to make a gif of the bathing suit scene with Lucy?-v-;;.

[Kaijo]

Not too much happened, a bit less than what I was hoping for an episode that is the start of an arc. Although the next episode doesn't look like it is really continuing the arc, so I wonder what their plan is.

Anyway, transgender bandit group is a new one. Well, can't think of the word off-hand for people who feel they are of the opposite gender, heh.

But the "key" and Michelle are sufficiently mysterious. I still call it a key, because I think it might wind up a clock or something. The imagery in the OP and ED makes me think clock, as well as the dream warning at the start that talked about time. Perhaps a key to a doomsday clock? That might be why Makarov felt Lucy shouldn't get involved in it; he might have seen enough to figure out it has something to do with a doomsday scenario.

Anyway, I'm guessing Lucy leaves with Michelle to find Levy, in the hopes the "words" can be translated.

And why did Lucy's magic whip not work? It sounded like the whip itself was out of magic power. The ED imagery almost suggested the spirit world, and that's where the whip comes from.

And why were churches being destroyed? I don't think we've seen much of the religion in this world to formulate any particular reason. Unless, given the hint in the episode, the destruction of churches is a bit of a cover for killing a particular person inside each church. And in that line of thought, Michelle might be someone who was originally part of the church, and thus she'll be hunted down as well.

[Bonta Kun]

Yukana!
I was expecting her to show up here but then I didn't expect her to show up in One Piece either.

Loved Erza's plan, you knew it was doomed to fail when it relied on Lucy's sex appeal

Pretty good set up to this arc, I really wonder where there going with this, it's the one of the good things about fillers, you don't know where things will go.

[ookamigirl]

Lucy's distant relative Michelle appears.
The mystery thing in the suitcase looked interesting.
Charla's reaction towards it was pretty serious.
That Michelle is a total crybaby klutz.
The joint mission to catch the bandits was ?!?
Who knew the bandits would be more into guys ROFL
