^ I don't think 'save everyone' is part of their doctrine (enemy & unfriendly civilian). You can compress that one with the next one to get:
Complete mission, and damn the consequences.

Indeed. People seem to forget that Natsu's team left three named villains, and a whole bunch of mooks laying motionless on the floor of a tower that disintegrated, with no sign of them having every escaped. Similarly when Nirvana was collapsing, Cobra, Midnight, and Zero were left to fend for themselves assuming they were still alive by that point.

Actually I wouldn't be surprised if Ikuraga and Midnight were supposed to have been outright killed by Erza, and readers simply didn't notice because it wasn't graphic, and was otherwise unremarked upon.

Oh, and Ten Commadments with Erza

Fixed for ya

Yea... The pills? Pretty fail. I despise Dues ex Machina solutions. Oh look out of NOWHERE here is a magical pill that completely solves the problem... I mean.. CMON.

Ten Commandments! That was a nice surprise. Explosion!
And ya the pills were..

Fenrir_valindri · 2010-04-15, 15:17

Lol, the convenient magic potion was a bit much, hopefully Mistgun shows up and explains what it is later.

But it was Awesome seeing Edoras Erza's abilities in combat, the Ten Commandments is an awesome tribute to Rave Master, great to see that the Ten Forms used again.

Heh, I wonder if Earthland Erza will claim it as a prize if(when) she defeats her counterpart.

Kafriel · 2010-04-15, 15:22

This chapter was amazing, really gets me wondering if NW!Erza has a Sacrifar form too...unlike the others, I don't mind the hax pills. Natsu has been powerless long enough, and since both sides of the unknown world have been revealed (human King and cat-Queen), the counterattack has to begin. Sure, there could have been many other ways to restore their magic, but they'd probably take up half a chapter and lower the tension by a lot, I think it's better this way since it keeps the action rolling. Pill bonus is that they can malfunction halfway through and make for some innovative battles, or explanations can be given later by Mistgun, which is also cool.

I kinda wanted to see an arc where someone else acted like the main protagonist but Natsu's fine for this one, especially cause I really dislike the King. I can't believe that huge lachryma was only Gray and Erza. But shouldn't destroying a piece of the lachryma have some sort of effect cause I remember the King taking off a handful of it earlier...

It was probably 15-20% Gray and 80-85% Erza.

Then imagine the other one with Makarov and the rest of the Raijinshuu....The King gotta be hiding that lachryma underground!

Kafriel · 2010-04-17, 04:26

Nah, Edoras is built on that giant Lachryma, THAT'S the power of Fairy Tail :P

game2007 · 2010-04-17, 08:05

Ten Commandments! Another Rave Master reference! For those who don't know, Ten Commandments is the name of Haru's sword and Edora Erza even uses the exact same moves used by Haru!

Yeah if erza and grey were that big then marakov, gildartz, and luxus are probably 5 times that by themselves. I can see how the king would want to use it as a nuke, but how the hell would you even move something that big? Is lachryma heavy?

Dude, it's magic... that and it's on a floating continent right next to Extalia, don't imagine it'll be that hard to pull off, honestly

I see your point, but there still has to be some explanation for things. I mean if you just say everything's magic and therefore needs no rationale then why bother providing explanations for anything at all?

I'm just saying, it doesn't have to be overly complicated either and it's likely easily solvable given the context. That aside, the floating continent holding the Lacryma seems like a good enough carrier for any bomb delivery I would imagine, given that it's likely magic is holding it up manipulating that to make it move seems believable.

Wrath88 · 2010-04-18, 08:21

Why not go with this: Use a little of the lacryma to power the platform that carries it.

Simple, right?

I suggest we just drop this argument and move on to something more
