Mashima probably wants to conclude the arc at or before chapter 100.

I wish I could've seen Mashima at Comic-Con, I would've asked him to do an ErzaxNatsu sketch. If this pairing ever happens I will run out and buy every single volume of FT in a heartbeat.

Lucy can go have fun with her cow for all I care

I always liked the pace of events in FT, Mashima manages to progress the story very fast without rushing it where it would become annoying, at least that's the feeling i have, the same with recent chapters, the pace is fine with me. It's one of the features that make this series more appealing to me than others where certain arc are stretched to oblivion, especially greater fights.

Yes i understand this arc was kind of drawn out but i'm thinking about the longevity of the series..i just don't want it to end up short and sweet like Rave Master...I just thought the events fighting the main antagonist would've been a bit more drawn-out, IMO.

As I said before, FT has the potential to be up there with Bleach and Naruto, hands down. I just want to see it exist long enough for it to happen.

Rave Master was short and sweet? Isn't it like 30+ volumes?

Short and sweet would be like...10 Volumes

Actually come to think of I don't know the average longevity of a manga XO Do you know?

From your statement here I am guessing 20-5?

There's probably a statistical value somewhere, but I won't guess and it's probably a waste of time.

Simply put, there are just too many kinds of manga. Successful Shonen Jump ones run forever, or, well, at least more than a few years; so are a few shoujo classics (some legendary ones last something like more than three decades and ongoing! ). Others run on more reasonable lengths, and there are always one-shots. Every story has its length after all.

To use an example from one manga-ka, Ken Akamatsu, his first long-running series A.I. Love You is 8 volumes, his big hit Love Hina 14, and his latest one Negima! have long since crossed 20 and is ongoing with no end in sight.

Rave Master is not short though. Rave Master is 35 volumes.

Wow, it looks ike natsu is all pumped up with the magical energy from the tower. He seems to have absored some of that energy into his body when he bursts into flames, so im pretty much expecting a super power-up right now.

From what i can tell he was eating a piece of the crystal so some of the absorbed magic gave him a boost

If you look closely, those are grinding noises in the little boxes at the bottom left, hence chewing.
