Itās fine... Everythingās fine... Itāll be okay...
Joking aside, I think this pair of chapters caught all of us by surprise. By the end of last weekās chapter, I was certain that Natsu was gonna have an epic brawl against his older brother. But nope. Instead, we get Mavis hogging the spotlight for the first half of the chapter, trying to get Zeref to come to his senses.Ā
Mavis, by now you should know that your former boyfriend who somehow got you pregnant is mad crazy. Thereās no sense in talking to him. Second, you prevent Natsu from attempting to finish Zeref off when heās in Dragon Force, which couldāve been really cool to see. Instead, we see you get axed off because you were stupid enough to get in the middle of their fight. Oh, and thereās Acnologia finally doing something important. You know, I am being a little harsh, but to defeat Acnologia with the ravines of time would be so stupid. So to see Zeref try and take him down would be epic beyond belief.Ā
Speaking of which, Zeref got Fairy Heart and is now the proclaimedĀ āWhite Wizardā who can control time, even resetting the damage Natsu does with his Fire Dragon King Demolition Fist. And then, Natsuās impaled. Okay, I legit was surprised by these two chapters. Seeing Natsu go into Dragon Force with that signature grin of his in the last chapter made me thinkĀ āYeah, heās gonna win with his own powerā. But then, Mavis has to butt in and ruin everything, even sending Natsu to his early grave, or so it seems for the moment. I honestly believe E.N.D. will be coming to fight Zeref now since heās achieved a power up, but I donāt believe Zeref will have the luxury of relying on him as a partner when up against Acnologia.Ā
What I want is a three-way fight between Natsu, Zeref, and Acnologia, with Natsu mostly going after Zeref since well, thatās his end goal: to kill him.Ā
The second chapter was definitely better than the first, but thatās only bias based on Mavis intervening. Call it what you will, I thought it was too stupid for her to just butt in.Ā
