I don't mind Natsu winning as long as others get their share too. And Gajeel is a powerful dragon slayer just like him, he does not deserve to be trashed like that. GundamFan If that happened I would be throwing bombs at the manag right now. Mashima should have kept it that way. Gajeel gets Rouge and Natsu gets Sting. I don't mind if Gajeel were to have more difficulty than Natsu. It would show that both are strong ye Natsu is still superior. There was no need to take Gajeel out of action all together and give Natsu even more strength than needed. It is always like that for any action movie/series. MC gets trashed around and then bam! He finally wakens up and smashes bad guys skull. Always hated this over used pattern. Ah yeh there was that guy... but few moments later he kicked the butt of a 10 times stronger opponent so his previous lose barely has any impact. n0m@n As I said those loses are of no real impact since few minutes later he kicks the bad guy or someone even stronger make that previous lose insignificant. Can't believe I'll be saying it but Ichigo's first fight with Grimm jaw is pretty good example of what I want. Ichigo actually lost and had to reflect on what happened. Yeh Tousen did take Grimmjaw away before Hichigo could awaken but invincible Ichigo still lost, the fight ended there and it took awhile until he defeated Grimmjaw or anyone stronger. Natsu didn't have such moment even once. everything was resolved in the same day and even hour. Krono Powerful weapon is one thing. Even for athletes a lot depends on their gear like bicycles, spears and etc. If they are not properly maintained, they'll lose. Horse riding, if the horse is not taken care of and is weak there are higher chances of losing. What Ultear did can be considered as doping. Clearly it is not something everyone does. The point was that Natsu never had a major lose that affected anything. I don't want him to be emo but he really should reflect on some of his actions. He is getting off the hook too easily. Well I like Natsu, his actions are not annoying like for example Gon's from HxH. Now that's the guy I want to suffer and I don't care that he is a kid. His dumbness needs some straightening up. Ah well, I'll leave it at that. Sabertooth needed to get of their high horse.

Similarly almost all sports have rules on the equipment so that all the participants are almost similarly equipped barring some small personal preference. Even F1 is going down this route... So Urza's weapons would be technological/ equipment doping. Taking the sports analogy |

What they did is called cheating. Once magic finishes it's effect, they'll be crushed. Doesn't matter that in few months time they'll get to that level. Right now they are not and are using cheating to win. If it is discovered they'll be disqualified and looked down on forever. Look at all the sportists who were caught on doping control. Most of them lost all their titles and medals. Hisoka?? Yep, cheating no matter how you look at it. Casshern You are slightly missing my point. I don't need training arc, they tend to get repetitive. I just want him to feel what is like to lose and look back on it. Yes he did lose to Gildarts but he still passed. But it is better than nothing. Anyway we can stop the debate about Natsu here, I calmed down but still am a bit annoyed^^ But nothing can be done anyway, just to accept. At least FT didn't fall to the same level as Bleach

For the record, I also think Lucy hasn't properly earned any of her gold keys since Leo, and even that one was kinda quick. As for Lily, he had a sword to begin with; Gaz just broke it. And then he got gimped by coming to Earthland. Looting a new one off a defeated foe in a life-or-death situation is fair enough. Quote:

Natsu is the one that taught Gildartz a lesson. Natsu wanted to continue the fight, but out of respect for Gildartz he stopped (he would not have admitted defeat against an opponent he hated). However, soon after Natsu went back after Acnologia, which went directly against the lesson Gildartz tried to teach him. Proving Natsu was right, Gildartz was wrong. |

...Gildartz was trying to tell Natsu it's alright to lose, so long as you can pick yourself up. And that no one is 'strongest' in the world. And he didn't stop out of respect. He knew he was outclassed. Gildartz even almost accidentally killed him, though in a somewhat comedic manner + how did you even come to the conclusion Natsu hates Gildartz... he loves him. Natsu going back to fight Acnologia isn't in anyway to 'go against whatever Gildartz' taught him.. He just couldn't bear to see Makarov die in place of them, like any other true member of Fairy Tail genuinely will feel.

The rest is just nitpicking dude, sorry. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and thank god for that, but you are just mad that the story didn't go the way you wanted.

After that was Leo vs Capricorn, which she didn't actually participate in, but still got a gold key out of. Of course there was a reason she couldn't participate, but the fact remains, that win was all Leo. Quote:

Respect for giving Gajeel a role to play after taking out his tag fight. So, the final day of the games is a massive free-for-all? If Levi's diary is anything to go by, it will be a massacre...
Cliffhanger ending, would be funny if it's Ultear again. |

Wow, biggest troll ending ever, even bigger than this week's naruto one^^;;. Hmm, it's strange though, usually these types of cliffhangers would be left for 299 to the flagship 300 chapter. Ah well, on the bright side
Spoiler for 297:
