Technically true, just look at female kamina pics with long hair, and dye it red, there's Erza.

I thought that was to let you see ghosts?

Don't you know? the less armor = more protection/rank/strength for the Females.



BTW, next chapter is 404, titled 00:00
I just thought that was funny

because 404 = error, which also happens to be 00:00 when a clock broke, LOL.

[omimon]

Seventh sense
Could only use it because she lost the other 5

Wow the author isn't even trying to be subtle with the ikki comparison.

Mashima

What are you doing

Mashima stahp

[Kafriel]

Aaaand there goes Happy with his explanation 100% nonsense fight, Erza should have passed away from the pain, but even if we assume that her senses got SO blocked that her nervous system broke down (in which case she wouldn't be able to stand but I'LL LET THAT SLIDE), how freaking weak was Kyouka, she got taken out in fisticuffs.

[bones]

What were you expecting from someone who had to debuff the opponent to that extent?

Technically I guess her last attack used swords, and the kicks were awesome, so I'm okay with those. Re: pain, endurance has always been Erza's strong suit, so I'm okay with that too.

Actually, this is pretty much the savage knock-down-drag-out fight I always wanted out of Erza vs Kyouka. It would've been just fine if not for the Seventh Sense WTFery thrown in

[Arialle]

am i the only one that thinks kyouka self-pwned herself?

Hey imma increase your sensitivity to pain that even wind blowing could make u scream but now imma take all your senses away so u cant feel anything that you can fight back

Erza was definitely still feeling pain, even with touch turned off. Don't think too much about it

[ImperialFlameGod8190]

So yea that could've been epic but that seemed like an epic fail

[~Yami~]

the fight become too shounen for my taste... sigh..

What have you been reading for the past 150 chapters

[Tempest35]

Wow, that lampshade...

Erza right now can probably take down the Anti-Spiral. But now that magic may soon be gone, we just might see her pick up that stick and fight like she told Azuma she would.

Also, I can't believe they forgot that when Kyouka's life ends, so does the countdown... Way to sucker them into killing you anyway.

[Wandering Soul]

Well at least now that fight is over.

[Saravis4]

I think this fight would have been better if they just had Erza overcome the pain and left out the bit with the senses. Its possible they'll have an explanation for it later, but as it is, its one of those fights that you have to turn off your brain.

[dniv]

I knew everyone was going to complain about this chapter as soon as it followed the predicted formula of fight happens, Erza somehow manages to win, and then the face countdown timer still goes to zero.

That's what happens after you start thinking too hard about this stuff (and the writing is too low-level), it stops surprising you anymore...

[hamazura]

nice saint seiya rip-off dude.... nice....

The problem I have is not a lack of complexity, its an abundance of absurdity. From what we were led to understand, she had no senses, none, and yet she fought no differently than how she usually fights. That's about as unbelievable as if she fought and won after being decapitated. To put it it another way as to the absurdity, think if Monty Python's Black Knight beat Arthur at the very end. Like I said it's one of those fights that you have to turn off your brain, else you'll have an aneurysm

I have no idea who those people you mention are neither of from Arther legend or Anime. Well I guess it bad writing on Hiro part but I really don't care at all about logic in Fairy tail because it Fairy tail, and i don't try to make it something it not like a naruto or bleach story.

Someone on MS pointed out that pain actually does have its own nerve endings, distinct from touch:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nociceptor

The sensory specificity of nociceptors is established by the high threshold only to particular features of stimuli. Only when the high threshold has been reached by either chemical, thermal, or mechanical environments are the nociceptors triggered.
