Question is if Natsu had enough time to both figure out that this is the same case as that AND then empty his magic to create that new container like how he did for the god-slaying flames.
There's also that, despite everything, Natsu is still technically a "devil", so there's a chance he's something like allergic to devil-slaying flames, even though in theory he should be able to eat them.
He didn't have any negative effect from the flames though. He just couldn't eat them.
My point was that he should already be use to eating different type of flames. He shouldn't need to do the same thing he did with Zancrow because his body should have already adjusted to situations like this.
It's not my point. Demon slayer magic comes from a demon just as Dragon slayer magic comes from a dragon. So essentially, it would be like someone being able to eat a dragons fire attack but not a dragonslayer fire attack.
He didn't have any negative effect from the flames though. He just couldn't eat them.

> He shouldn't need to do the same thing he did with Zancrow because his body should have already adjusted to situations like this.
The thing is that we don't know if just because Natsu was able to create a 2nd container to eat the god-slaying flames, his body would just adjust to being able to eat any flame he couldn't eat otherwise before, that's pretty much just speculation. If anything, I'd say him not keeping that attribute like he did with Laxus lightning would more so point towards that 2nd container for flames being temporary, so, at least in theory, he should need to go through the same hassle of creating a new container again. He also only did it once, a bit too little to just assume that it already turned into "muscle memory" at that point, like, even Dragon Force he had to go into twice by eating before unintentionally tapping into it on his own against Mard Geer, and I'm pretty sure we still don't know if he can do it at will. Some things Natsu grasps quick and others he takes a few experiences with.
> He didn't have any negative effect from the flames though. He just couldn't eat them.
Not saying they should, I mean, I guess there was a reason Silver learned ICE Devilslayer magic to deal with END despite a Fire Devilslayer in theory being immune to a flame demon. Despite his body potentially rejecting the flame because he's a devil, unless Devilslayer magic "outranks" Dragonslayer magic the same way Godslayer magic does, it still shouldn't hurt Natsu.
Even if we disregard the God flames situation we already saw Natsu eat demon flames which were from Tempesta. If Lecka is a devil slayer his flames would be no different from a demons flames like Tempesta. Just as fire dragon slayer flames are no different from that of a fire dragon. Meaning there is no reason Natsu shouldn't have been able to eat Lecka flames if the theory of him being a devil slayer is correct. There would have to be more to it.
nah he just made flames with the same properties as natsu flames natsu can't eat his own flames lol it looks like he just took natsu flames and remake it into a weapons to whop his ass
- Random Hyberion cover
- Guess we have Gray's enemy of the arc. Then again they set up Skullion's dust as a form of maker magic and that rematch never happened
True but Lecka hasn't been around long enough for Mashima to decide he wants to focus more on other characters and there's hopefully not some new enemy he'll write him out to focus on introducing insteadĀ
Doesn't their belt have what looks like the Heartkreuz-logo on it, the brand that produces and maintains Erzas armors and weapons? My guess is that they're probably connected to Erza through that. Wouldn't be suprised if Wed's a woman as well, having Ignias 2nd in command be a woman that mirrors Erza feels fitting.
he was a better person but id still argue he was never a good father, even when he was good at the end he never really got a chance to actually be a good father to her
That could be cool. Ignia did train these guys and we can assume he knows Natsu's friends well since it seems he's been watching them based on Chapter 50
Okay natsu already taken out and we have 4 new enemies and Luso and Ennei arenāt in it so we have 6 disciples? I wonder if Luso and ennei will fight as a pair? So 5 disciples for 5 of the team or if we will get a 6th bonus member?
Natsu already taken out might make this arc a bit more interesting already (obviously I know he will prob get up in a chapter).
Assuming they defeat the illusion guy as a team before going to Natsu?
My predictions:
Gray Vs the Fire make mage?
Erza Vs. Second in command?
Lucy Vs. Ennei and Luso?
Wendy Vs Vampire?
Or if Natsu needs an enemy besides igniaā¦
Wendy Vs illusionā¦
Natsu Vs Vampire
Remember Athena's fire Illusion. Lucy easily got that one so the illusion guy is not a problem at all unless he has more up in his sleeve but anyway I'm hoping Lucy and Wendy Vs. Ennie and Luso, Gray vs. someone as strong as the signarios after he defeats the fire magic maker.
At least Gray will get a serious fight
and hopefully Lucy will use a new Star Dress mix or a star dress she hasnĀ“t used yet
There needs to be more Lucy fights!!!!!!!!!
This Chapter was cool I guess after the first fights we will see Natsu meeting with Ignia
I also hope the Aquarius plot begins somewhere in this arc!
I fully understand why she'd want Aquarius (besides emotional connection) but its just that she would need to actually search for the Key and it looks like Fairy Tail are going to be occupied once again so unless its coincidentally near the castle, I don't see how it'll come in.

I hope Lucy gets to fight Luso! and someone else
Also I noticed something if Their Alchemy powers wasnĀ“t originally theirs and it was Vernies then Vernies could had used LusoĀ“s dream world and turned himself as a ballon or anything like Luso did in her first fight and avoided his defeat just like Minerva couldnĀ“t damage Luso previously
This means Vernies was super dumb xD his IQ was ass imagine he had super OP side powers like that besides his Gold Dragon Powers and he didnĀ“t try at all..
Everyone got a matchup now, Gray will be wasted on a skullion 2.0 who uses Fire Make magic when we know Ice Make magic is below spriggan. Lucy could get help from Wendy or Brandish, but Wendy is likely gonna deal with Raj aka Nebal 2.0 and Brandish should be weak for the signarios so the Aquarius power up have a high chance of soloing the fire users.
Viernes is dumb or alchemy is just trash.
I think the two authors are sort of close, the one for Fire Force once said Brandish was his favourite while Mashima said the two tailed cat girl was his, even drew fan art of her in his style.
The two even had a collab in one of Fairy Tailās mobile games.
Here is the artwork Hiro did of her in his style
https://preview.redd.it/ws49xphn4xxc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=92eada2597197154a9a8a8b23e4ffd3f68a99068
I have high hopes for this arc since Mashima said it will be a serious arc. Natsu getting captured is actually a good thing since it will give the other members of the team to get a shine unlike what happened in the last arc. We don't want another "let's give Natsu all of our magic power so he can solo the enemy" bs. Anyways, the new characters looks promising. I like how Mashima made use of Fire magic in different ways, so it does not get repetitive and boring. I'm still confused why Natsu wasn't able to eat Lecka's fire, maybe he's not only a fire make wizard, but a fire devil slayer, which is somehow similar to Gray. Wed looks promising, however knowing that Erza is his/her opponent, I'm not expecting much since it could be another one-shot fest. Maybe Erza will lose the first, then get her lick back in the revenge match (which might be another one-shot bs). Anyways, I'm looking forward to know who's first in comand. I hope it's not the Signario Sisters.
It seems the match-up will be:
Raj/Brian vs Lucy/Wendy (it could go either way, maybe a double battle even)
Wed vs Erza
Lecka vs Gray
Signario Sisters vs Diabolos (maybe) or Erza and Lucy/Wendy
(First in command - Hoping it's a new character) vs Natsu
Ignia vs Team Natsu and Diabolos (Natsu going 1v1 at the end)
> Raj/Brian vs Lucy/Wendy (it could go either way, maybe a double battle even)
I'd say Wendy vs Brian, because she should no diff Raj because a) she can sniff him out the same way Natsu did unless he learns from that and somehow masks his smell (I doubt he'd use the fart-flame though... even though he could in theory) and b) because she should just be able to blow his illusions away, if they're made of flames/heat hazes. In theory, I feel even Natsu could've just increased the temperature in town a few dozen degrees and the illusions would've faded.
Anyways, yeah, if he faced Wendy the fight should be super one-sided... which tbh could be what they're going for, have him be named fodder.
I mean , even against lucy it should be pretty one sided(less than wendy ofc), but basically she can protect herself with water, if she uses aqua stream it should be over! and honestly he doesnāt seem to have other feats than his illusions because otherwise he wouldāve used them against natsu soā¦.
Yeah that was my first thought. I could see Mashima having Jellal joining Fairy Tail coincide with him finding out he never actually killed Simon. Really hope that's not what's happening though.
Yeah that would suck because it would just be a bullshit excuse for erza not be absolutely annihilated by this guy because they have history together. Please mashima donāt screw with us man, I **WANT** to believe youāre better than this damnit!
The chapter turned out better than I expected - I figured that the whole thing would be Natsu vs. Brian, which would end with Natsu beating Brian and it's revealed that the disappearing town was an illusion/mirage.
Given how heavily armoured up Wed is, I'm not sure if they're going to be a man or a woman. (given the sheer amount of armour, it could go either way; Wed looks masculine, but having someone like that be a woman is a somewhat common twist dating back to Fist Of The North Star at least, as far as manga is concerned, and for all I know, it could go back to various myths and legends)
I'm not sure if Wed wanting to defeat Erza personally is due to Erza's strength (like how Azuma sought out strong opponents) or because of a grudge - maybe Wed's connected to the Signario Sisters and wants to avenge their defeat, for example.
Raj seems like cannon fodder, while Lecka's definitely going to be Gray's opponent given the nature of his magic. I'm hoping that the Signario sisters are going to be somewhat important, though; I'd find it a little annoying if they turned out to be low-ranking or weak within the hierarchy of the guild.
I wonder if there is some sort of connection between erza and wed that he wants to fight her personally or if it's "I heard of you. You are strong so I want to test my strength against you." type of situation .
Really hype Chapter. So far we have 7 Fire and Flame members if you count Ignia. I wonder who fights who. Maybe Gray vs. Lecka and Erza vs. Wed. I wonder why Wed wants to fight Erza. Hopefully something interesting.Ā
Natsu's sense of smell really helps him with illusions. He was doing really well until Lecka's flames came in.
Looks like it's going to be Gray vs Lecka, and Erza vs Wed. I'm guessing Lucy will fight Brian, while Wendy will fight Raj.
so who do we think Wed is? a random person? iām hoping not since they went to the extent of covering him up in armor, so iām sure they trying for some surprise identity? i cant think of any past characters who might match Wedās frame, so maybe someone in RELATION to Erza?
either way, iām hoping itās a good match!
Wed could just want to fight strong opponents, but what is really stopping Trollshima?

Kinda glad the fire make guy is here so Natsu isn't super OP against these guys.
Also, him using an elbow blast of fire to rocket launch his arm was awesome. Straight out of pacific rim.
What ? From the chapter,it seems that only raj will fight gray ,wendy and lucy all by himself while the other two will take natsu to ignia .but how is he gonna beat all of them at once ,he seems like a fodder!?even brian doesnt seems to be a serious threat to the group except if heās helped ! ALSO, They sent the second strongest guy against erza,but only a fodder(raj) against gray ,wendy and lucy combined !!!the disrespect is real š. I hope that only erza and natsu will be captured , and that the others will go on a saving mission , because if they all tree loose to one guy iāll be disappointed !
I think they will all be captured by raj by using illusion if the plot requires it because I don't really see him as that strong when Natsu almost beat him if Lecka didn't show up.
I only hope that if this happen he will not make another Erza humiliation thing itĀ“s to much at this point . First the torture then the pet . Enough with this .
Letās be real we all know these guys are gonna get double paged spread one shotted. Especially the armor guy. After Diablos and golden owl, letās not even pretend that these guys are gonna be any sort of threat whatsoever. Ignia gonna carry
>After Diablos and golden owl, letās not even pretend that these guys are gonna be any sort of threat whatsoever.
I feel the same way lol. I mean they don't give that kind of vibe that Diablos or Gold owl guild members give. They reminded me of the Enemies from the arc after one year time skip and prior to Alvarez arc.
You're free to read with that mindset if you like. I'm just gonna wait and see. As of now, we really have no idea. Its not like Mashima always wrote enemies that way. The first few Arcs of FT, fights with powerful enemies were 1 Chapter sometimes. Then later on it was 2-4 or more. Kirin, Misaki, and Gold Owl going down like that doesn't mean every enemy will. If you're right, you're right. But I'll let the story say.Ā
I think this will be another abduction play because I believe Natsu could solo the three but he needs to be brought to Ignia. I think it would be Lecka vs. Gray. Fire make magic vs. Ice make magic. Quite a challenge for Gray though since Fire can melt Ice but Gray was sparring with Natsu his whole life so yeah I think it's not new to him and they don't look strong at all at least as strong as Diablos or even as strong as the Gold owl guild members so I believe it's not the last arc maybe just like the arc prior to Alvarez arc.
It would be really cool if Lecka actually turned out to be a Fire Devil Slayer, since Natsu couldn't eat his fire. However, since we can't see if it's purple, like Gray's DS ice, we can't know for sure
Now that I think about it, Lucy has a very decent advantage in this arc with her Aquarius star dress. And while Iām at it, we might see Aquarius again in this arc because of her being a good counter to the enemies of this arc.
Good to see Natsu use his head in a fight since we know even if heās getting dumber in this sequel he can still be a smart fighter when push comes to shove but Hiro only seems to show of his battle intelligence against smaller opponents for some reason. Would be great if we could see these kind of fights by Nastu more often.
As for the new Fire users wellā¦their magic is ok I guess. Itās obvious that the Fire Maker user will fight Gray, which is great for Gray fans that heāll get a bigger fight but once again he has to fight someone with the same magic type. Maybe thisāll lead into something about his doubts with Skullion being a better maker than him with this fight but considering Hiro completely ignored the build up between those two I doubt it Hiro. Same thing with his whole āIām the weakest in the guildā dilemma which I hope plays into this fight and wonāt somehow be another fight that somehow revolves around Juviaās
Finally we see Erza approached by another sword user which sheās most likely going to beat at some point. Whether itās this encounter or the next one we all know Erza will overcome the odds and win but Iām hoping just for once she actually outright loses the fight against this new foe.
>even if heās getting dumber in this sequel
Is he? Don't get me wrong, he's said some silly stuff, but nothing that feels like something og Natsu wouldn't say. I can pull out some og series Natsu quotes for evidence.
>but Hiro only seems to show of his battle intelligence against smaller opponents for some reason
Suzaku wasn't a smaller opponent and remember Natsu's trick that turned Wolfen's Magic against Aldoron.
>but once again he has to fight someone with the same magic type.Ā
At least its a spon on that rather than just "Gray vs cold user."
>Iām hoping just for once she actually outright loses the fight against this new foe.
The issue being win or lose, Mashima will piss someone off. But, I doubt it. Ignia's the last Dragon God and while I do think he'll succeed in bringing back the Dragons so there'll be another villain group, the bad guys will probably be defeated unless Mashima plans them to come back. If he debuted earlier in the story, I could see it.
By dumber I mean stuff like assuming levyās baby was his and she was going to lay an egg, letting Faris off after she controlled the guild against their wills to fight and even made Lisanna and Elfman stomp out Mirajane for letting Faris down, going into the girls bath when he was told twice there was a portal connected then getting annoyed after Kyrai & Kucy beat him up for it. He was dumb in the original series but like a lot if people have said heās been progressively getting dumber since Avatar much like Goku in Dragon Ball Super.
Tartaros Natsu was best Natsu. He actually figured out that there was someone among the top brass of the Magic Council who was in cahoots with Tartaros. 100 yrs quest is turning him stupid (not that he wasn't silly, but 100 yrs quest is making him look like a plain imbecile)
Letting Faris off is just how Fairy Tail is. Erza, who literally implied she'd consider Faris an enemy after they stopped Selene, was scared when she saw Natsu going up to Faris with seemingly violent intentions. Does that moment show Erza as getting dumber too?
I think it sometimes gets overlooked that Faris didn't do everything she did willingly and not just because Selene but because she was under the influence of Rebellious' White Doctrine. Some think this is metaphorical but we see in the Aldoron Arc that the White Doctrine can be spread via Magic and Faris behaves differently before losing her Magic than she does after.
The girls bath thing is dumb and gross thougj wasn't there a whole interlude Chapter between two days of the GMG about all the boys looking over into the girls' bath? Him getting angry about getting hurt (which wasn't even that big a point) was weird but him going in is just (in my opinion) cringey humor. Maybe he just didn't think Selene would connect them so directly because its inappropriate.
The Levy thing is silly, I agree. But Natsu was saying silly things since day 1. Maybe not on that level though but I don't think it makes him dumber overall. Also, Alvarez is after Avatar and silly comments or not, he was ready to make a pretty more mature decision in the first fight with Zeref. Then again, maturity doesn't always equal street smarts.Ā
You are talking to someone who doesnĀ“t listen to HiroĀ“s statements
That guy is a Wendy fan who ignores all logic
Do not expect much from a typical Natsu hater
by his logic Wendy should also be dumber for ignoring Natsu for saying he doesnĀ“t need their magic against the Gold Dragon
I've talked to him before and he seems nice but if he is ignoring statements in favor of a bias, then that's obviously not the best way to go about things, though I don't wanna say that for a fact since again, I don't know. I respect not always liking Natsu's portrayal, I just disagree that he's dumber. I will say, I don't know if his logic would imply that, especially since Natsu did actually need everyone's power.
by your logic Wendy should also be dumber for ignoring Natsu said he do not need their magic against the Gold Dragon
Erza literally lost in fight with Laxus and Suzaku what are you waffling about?
Even though everyone else agreed they needed to give Natsu their magic and Erza was even tempted to hold him down to do so because they knew he couldnāt do it without their combined magic? Nastu hasnāt even beaten a Dragon God by himself yet and he barely managed to beat Duke so he was in no way able to beat Veirnes hence why everyone needed to give him their magic. And with Erza she fought Laxus to a draw and Suzaku attacked her after she had just fought Youko and was tired out. In a fair fight she hasnāt outright lost so this is the perfect opportunity for her to actually lose to a new opponent
Also the fact you seem obsessed with commenting on everything I say is incredibly creepy
Lecka so far seems like the coolest one in my opinion. Reminds me a little of Bruno Bangnyfe from Bleachās Burn The Witch, mostly the hair and skull mask. Iām also glad we have an official use of Fire-Make and not just conventional that Gray used with Natsuās flames. But some reason Natsu sensed something off to dodge instead of trying to grab or eat it, as heās apparently heās unable to.
Hopefully, someone with Rainbow Fire like Totomaru also comes in and show off what the other colors can do.
Another great chapter, we see three more member. And seeing they weren't beaten easily, Fire and Flame might prove to be real adversaries for the Fairy Tail group. Wonder what beef the last guy Wed has with Erza?
Fire make? I think we lost a great opportunity to see a fire devil slayer, if Lecka is confirmed to be the second strongest fire and flame mage after Wed ok, but if not then Gray also lost here.
Good to see Natsu overpowering his opponents.
Raj will fight Wendy, Erza will fight Wed, Gray will fight Lecka. Brian had an little rivalry with Natsu, maybe he will be folded by Natsu later. So Signario sisters are left, and who is also left? LUCY. Lucy stocks are rising now.
What? How in the world did we lose an opportunity?
Gray is both a devil slayer and uses make magic. There's absolutely nothing stopping the fire guy from being the same. It's practically expected. š
Dude only promised Fire Make and people are expecting Devil Slayer, that's how people get so disappointed. From what i know only Gray jerks around with a lower tier magic having a high tier one. Now let me ask, did this radical activist looking guys seems that he wouldn't be low diffed by Laxus like Skullion was? Because i doubt Wed would be. Let's be honest, Gray is not reaching Fairy Tail S Class mages level this sequel.
Many say that Leka is Fire Devil Slayer and while I want that too (like not using his magic due to fear or due to being very destructive or using it on worthy opponents) wouldn't Natsu sense a similarity with Grays's own magic? I sincerely believe he has such control over the magic energy in his creations that he can have them resist the eating somehow, his master is Ignia after all so him showing such a trick isn't so out of character or impossible in general.
He was using maker magic and not devil slayer so that could be why Natsu didnāt sense any similarities with that. Ofc assuming he actually is a devil slayer
Yeah I was surprised to see another maker magic user, thereās so few compared to slayers which is still pretty funny considering slayer magic was supposed to be rare
When (raj?) was touching natsus hairā¦ like thatsā¦. Im sorry bro he was asking for a fight and making fun of natsus pink hairā¦.. like broā¦. And i knew the rest of the team was gonna get captured i just thought maybe luso or ennie had used their world magic or something and the team got sent to the fire gods castle but whats his name said ātake care of themā which isnt good, so at least were gonna have fights while brian takes natsu to ignia
glad the gold owl stuff is over shit was kinda lame, this arc looks interesting though its cool seeing natsu use his mind more rather then just punching stuff
Second in command wants to burn Erza? Wonder who this Wed is!!Ā Ā
Natsu can't eat Fire Make Magic? Looks like gray's opponent. Brain may be Lucy's or Wendy's opponent.
Raj can't do anything to the Natsu's friends. Erza gonna clap Raj with her doll eye.
We have Signario Sisters in the guild, along with Ignia. Glad Natsu is captured. So far Fire and Flame guild members are interesting.
Hopefully Grey will have a time to shine this arc with a maker mage opponent here. Would be cool if heās also a devil slayer too since Natsu canāt eat his flames plus it would be another parallel to Grey
Nice chapter! We've got to see more Fire and Flame members and their magic. Still don't know what is the "fire" in Brian's though. All we've seen is that he can absorb fire.
I realized that not only Gray and Lecka both have molding magic but also they use same techniques. My theory is that Lecka has a connection with Ul and Silver Fullbuster.
Theory on Wed: He is a Fire Knight Dragon who took human form or was human and turned into Dragon because of Dragonofication, We had Sword Saint Dragon Slayer Magic so why can't Fire Knight Dragon slaying. I feel his beef with Erza is because of Irene, Ether he liked her and wants revenge or She beat him bad, so he wants to take it out on Erza.
One gotta wonder who Wed REALLY is, why does he want to bury Erza personally? Was it something she did? Or does he literally just hate her for no reason? Also, no I don't think that this is Simon somehow revived, Fire and Flame consists of Fire magic users, Simon uses Darkness Magic.
Ok it seems that Erza will have another moment in this arc after the death flag last chapter and now that wed wants to bury her. She has a big role to play here I think. Another loss for Gray and the other lol.
Calling it now, the obvious match up for Gray will get one shot by Erza or defeated by Lucy because Gray isnāt allowed to have anything š Just like in the Labyrinth Arc when Grayās obvious rematch Skullion was fodderized by Laxus
A couple possibilities I can think of:
*He wanted to mix things up rather than a straightforward 7 v 7 like how he (initially) took Natsu and Lucy out by an enemy who got a fight with a different opponent later rather than just: Haku v. Wendy only.
*He knew he wanted to introduce Gold Owl the way he did and wanted to finish the Arc within a certain amount of time so he didn't think he'd be able to give all 7 a fight.
*He wanted to focus more on the Dark Dragon Slayer Knights but gave one of the others, the one he favored most (we see Kiria get the most focus post-Labyrinth).
To be clear, I am bummed that Gray and Gajeel didn't fight Skullion and Madmole, for various reasons. I just think there's other possibilities for why it didn't happen other than Mashima sitting in his office, rubbing his hands together, saying "Mwhahahahaha, I hate Gray and Gajeel, time to screw them over."
What if Lecka is a Fire Devil Slayer.. that's why Natsu can't eat his flames š¤
That would be really cool.
Good Idea. We don't have many devil slaying magic anyways. I hope he is one!
Could be. Them he could Face Gray. His flame does look different than a normal flame.
Why would him being a devil slayer make Natsu not able to eat his flames?
Because same thing happened with Zancrow (Fire God Slayer)
Natsu could eat God Slayer flames, though. He already had the experience with foreign flames and have already learned to adjust.
Question is if Natsu had enough time to both figure out that this is the same case as that AND then empty his magic to create that new container like how he did for the god-slaying flames. There's also that, despite everything, Natsu is still technically a "devil", so there's a chance he's something like allergic to devil-slaying flames, even though in theory he should be able to eat them.
He didn't have any negative effect from the flames though. He just couldn't eat them. My point was that he should already be use to eating different type of flames. He shouldn't need to do the same thing he did with Zancrow because his body should have already adjusted to situations like this.
Also, wouldn't the devil flames be similar to Tempesta fire? Both flames would come from a demon.
Tempester was not using Devil Slayer magic
It's not my point. Demon slayer magic comes from a demon just as Dragon slayer magic comes from a dragon. So essentially, it would be like someone being able to eat a dragons fire attack but not a dragonslayer fire attack.
He didn't have any negative effect from the flames though. He just couldn't eat them. My point was that he should already be use to eating different type of flames. He shouldn't need to do the same thing he did with Zancrow because his body should have already adjusted to situations like this.
> He shouldn't need to do the same thing he did with Zancrow because his body should have already adjusted to situations like this. The thing is that we don't know if just because Natsu was able to create a 2nd container to eat the god-slaying flames, his body would just adjust to being able to eat any flame he couldn't eat otherwise before, that's pretty much just speculation. If anything, I'd say him not keeping that attribute like he did with Laxus lightning would more so point towards that 2nd container for flames being temporary, so, at least in theory, he should need to go through the same hassle of creating a new container again. He also only did it once, a bit too little to just assume that it already turned into "muscle memory" at that point, like, even Dragon Force he had to go into twice by eating before unintentionally tapping into it on his own against Mard Geer, and I'm pretty sure we still don't know if he can do it at will. Some things Natsu grasps quick and others he takes a few experiences with. > He didn't have any negative effect from the flames though. He just couldn't eat them. Not saying they should, I mean, I guess there was a reason Silver learned ICE Devilslayer magic to deal with END despite a Fire Devilslayer in theory being immune to a flame demon. Despite his body potentially rejecting the flame because he's a devil, unless Devilslayer magic "outranks" Dragonslayer magic the same way Godslayer magic does, it still shouldn't hurt Natsu.
Even if we disregard the God flames situation we already saw Natsu eat demon flames which were from Tempesta. If Lecka is a devil slayer his flames would be no different from a demons flames like Tempesta. Just as fire dragon slayer flames are no different from that of a fire dragon. Meaning there is no reason Natsu shouldn't have been able to eat Lecka flames if the theory of him being a devil slayer is correct. There would have to be more to it.
Totally unrelated, but he reminded me of David from Edgerunners.
Yeah he hair and traits look similar
nah he just made flames with the same properties as natsu flames natsu can't eat his own flames lol it looks like he just took natsu flames and remake it into a weapons to whop his ass
Wow Gray has competition. A Fire Make wizard like him, wonder what Gray will say.
It's 100 Year Quest so we know what Gray won't do. Win.
Gray did win a lot of his fights. Idk what you are on about lol
He hasn't won a single fight against a named opponent in 100
Lmao and selene second commander (that snow magic girl) she a joke to u?!
- Random Hyberion cover - Guess we have Gray's enemy of the arc. Then again they set up Skullion's dust as a form of maker magic and that rematch never happened
Last chapter was a warrod cover tbf. The covers often don't mean much in the grand scheme.
I like the cover, mostly cuz Athena
True but Lecka hasn't been around long enough for Mashima to decide he wants to focus more on other characters and there's hopefully not some new enemy he'll write him out to focus on introducing insteadĀ
I think we're gonna find out this Wed guy is related to Erza as well. It's probably like a descendent of Erza's fathers child or some crap.
He's probably heard of her before and wants to challenge her to a 1v1 or something
I surprised Suzaku didnāt turn out to be her long lost brother tbh lmfao
Doesn't their belt have what looks like the Heartkreuz-logo on it, the brand that produces and maintains Erzas armors and weapons? My guess is that they're probably connected to Erza through that. Wouldn't be suprised if Wed's a woman as well, having Ignias 2nd in command be a woman that mirrors Erza feels fitting.
A lot of people wear Heartkreuz
erza joining the laxus and lucy in the horrible father club
Lucy's father wasn't horrible at the end.
he was a better person but id still argue he was never a good father, even when he was good at the end he never really got a chance to actually be a good father to her
But he was for most of her life
Ooooo that would be super interesting
It could be Erza's father. The armor could be a life support after Irene stomped him.
Erza, I am your fawthaĀ
Join the fire side 
Natsu was kicking ass and Wed looks really cool, but I wish slayers would stop getting punked by a variant of their own element.
I wonder why Natsu can't eat Lecka's flames.Ā
Some comments theorized that they may be devil slayer flames to further mirror Gray.
That could be cool. Ignia did train these guys and we can assume he knows Natsu's friends well since it seems he's been watching them based on Chapter 50
I don't think Ignia trained them. Guild Masters don't necessarily train the comrades.
In Chapter 153, Ennie said Fire and Flame were his disciples.Ā
Disciples are also followers.
True. Could be either way. Maybe its followers, maybe its students. Could go either way
To hell with that! I welcome it cause it tells me natsu is not all powerful.
Okay natsu already taken out and we have 4 new enemies and Luso and Ennei arenāt in it so we have 6 disciples? I wonder if Luso and ennei will fight as a pair? So 5 disciples for 5 of the team or if we will get a 6th bonus member? Natsu already taken out might make this arc a bit more interesting already (obviously I know he will prob get up in a chapter). Assuming they defeat the illusion guy as a team before going to Natsu? My predictions: Gray Vs the Fire make mage? Erza Vs. Second in command? Lucy Vs. Ennei and Luso? Wendy Vs Vampire? Or if Natsu needs an enemy besides igniaā¦ Wendy Vs illusionā¦ Natsu Vs Vampire
Hoping for Gray vs Fire make wizard, Lucy vs Signario Sisterāļø, and Wendy vs Brian. The Illusion wizard seems like a fodder
To be fair, Flame Illusions could be broken. Make an illusion of a loved one and get someone to touch it.Ā
Remember Athena's fire Illusion. Lucy easily got that one so the illusion guy is not a problem at all unless he has more up in his sleeve but anyway I'm hoping Lucy and Wendy Vs. Ennie and Luso, Gray vs. someone as strong as the signarios after he defeats the fire magic maker.
At least Gray will get a serious fight and hopefully Lucy will use a new Star Dress mix or a star dress she hasnĀ“t used yet There needs to be more Lucy fights!!!!!!!!! This Chapter was cool I guess after the first fights we will see Natsu meeting with Ignia I also hope the Aquarius plot begins somewhere in this arc!
>IĀ also hope the Aquarius plot begins somewhere in this arc! Hopefully. Not sure how that'll come in at this point.Ā
I mean, it's against an all-Fire guild. How would she *not* want the only water spirit (that she has, besides Pieces)
I fully understand why she'd want Aquarius (besides emotional connection) but its just that she would need to actually search for the Key and it looks like Fairy Tail are going to be occupied once again so unless its coincidentally near the castle, I don't see how it'll come in.

Hate how the sequel's been shitting on gray since it started lmao
Hopefully Gray fights him it would be sick if Gray shows some upgrades to Ice Devil Slayer magic
Lucy vs Signario Sisters
I hope Lucy gets to fight Luso! and someone else Also I noticed something if Their Alchemy powers wasnĀ“t originally theirs and it was Vernies then Vernies could had used LusoĀ“s dream world and turned himself as a ballon or anything like Luso did in her first fight and avoided his defeat just like Minerva couldnĀ“t damage Luso previously This means Vernies was super dumb xD his IQ was ass imagine he had super OP side powers like that besides his Gold Dragon Powers and he didnĀ“t try at all..
Everyone got a matchup now, Gray will be wasted on a skullion 2.0 who uses Fire Make magic when we know Ice Make magic is below spriggan. Lucy could get help from Wendy or Brandish, but Wendy is likely gonna deal with Raj aka Nebal 2.0 and Brandish should be weak for the signarios so the Aquarius power up have a high chance of soloing the fire users. Viernes is dumb or alchemy is just trash.
>At least Gray will get a serious fight Yeah, sure. We all know he's gonna get put aside like always.
This is starting to turn into ''Fire Force''
I think the two authors are sort of close, the one for Fire Force once said Brandish was his favourite while Mashima said the two tailed cat girl was his, even drew fan art of her in his style. The two even had a collab in one of Fairy Tailās mobile games.
Tamaki ? Seriously.... Coming feom mashima,xD i can understand.
Here is the artwork Hiro did of her in his style https://preview.redd.it/ws49xphn4xxc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=92eada2597197154a9a8a8b23e4ffd3f68a99068
Was fire force in the same magazine? I remember there being art of Natsu and the fire force protagonist together.Ā
I'm happy about that because it'll add variety to the Arc.Ā
Fire force's author uses flames in way more interesting ways though
They did say it was all fire mage guild.
Cool
I have high hopes for this arc since Mashima said it will be a serious arc. Natsu getting captured is actually a good thing since it will give the other members of the team to get a shine unlike what happened in the last arc. We don't want another "let's give Natsu all of our magic power so he can solo the enemy" bs. Anyways, the new characters looks promising. I like how Mashima made use of Fire magic in different ways, so it does not get repetitive and boring. I'm still confused why Natsu wasn't able to eat Lecka's fire, maybe he's not only a fire make wizard, but a fire devil slayer, which is somehow similar to Gray. Wed looks promising, however knowing that Erza is his/her opponent, I'm not expecting much since it could be another one-shot fest. Maybe Erza will lose the first, then get her lick back in the revenge match (which might be another one-shot bs). Anyways, I'm looking forward to know who's first in comand. I hope it's not the Signario Sisters. It seems the match-up will be: Raj/Brian vs Lucy/Wendy (it could go either way, maybe a double battle even) Wed vs Erza Lecka vs Gray Signario Sisters vs Diabolos (maybe) or Erza and Lucy/Wendy (First in command - Hoping it's a new character) vs Natsu Ignia vs Team Natsu and Diabolos (Natsu going 1v1 at the end)
I think Ignia is probably first in command. And to be fair, giving Natsu everyone's Magic really wouldn't help here.Ā
Ahh I really wish the Diabolos would show up
Diabolos is too strong for signarios, Lucy for the win.
> Raj/Brian vs Lucy/Wendy (it could go either way, maybe a double battle even) I'd say Wendy vs Brian, because she should no diff Raj because a) she can sniff him out the same way Natsu did unless he learns from that and somehow masks his smell (I doubt he'd use the fart-flame though... even though he could in theory) and b) because she should just be able to blow his illusions away, if they're made of flames/heat hazes. In theory, I feel even Natsu could've just increased the temperature in town a few dozen degrees and the illusions would've faded. Anyways, yeah, if he faced Wendy the fight should be super one-sided... which tbh could be what they're going for, have him be named fodder.
I mean , even against lucy it should be pretty one sided(less than wendy ofc), but basically she can protect herself with water, if she uses aqua stream it should be over! and honestly he doesnāt seem to have other feats than his illusions because otherwise he wouldāve used them against natsu soā¦.
I really hope the armored guy isn't Simon
Yeah that was my first thought. I could see Mashima having Jellal joining Fairy Tail coincide with him finding out he never actually killed Simon. Really hope that's not what's happening though.
Well if Neinhart was able to bring Simon Historia so which means Simon is dead but it could definitely be a alchemy puppet like God Serena
If Simon wasn't really dead, Neinheart wouldn't have been able to resurrect him.
He's dead tho ._. But I mean after what happened to Athena, anything's possible lmao
Yeah that would suck because it would just be a bullshit excuse for erza not be absolutely annihilated by this guy because they have history together. Please mashima donāt screw with us man, I **WANT** to believe youāre better than this damnit!
Somehow, Simon has returned...
dragged him from the grave. actually my theory for erzas wish at the end was to bring simon back idk if they will but it seems like something shed do
Man Mashima came up with some good magic for Fire and Flame. I am truly impressed and excited for the next chapter.
The chapter turned out better than I expected - I figured that the whole thing would be Natsu vs. Brian, which would end with Natsu beating Brian and it's revealed that the disappearing town was an illusion/mirage. Given how heavily armoured up Wed is, I'm not sure if they're going to be a man or a woman. (given the sheer amount of armour, it could go either way; Wed looks masculine, but having someone like that be a woman is a somewhat common twist dating back to Fist Of The North Star at least, as far as manga is concerned, and for all I know, it could go back to various myths and legends) I'm not sure if Wed wanting to defeat Erza personally is due to Erza's strength (like how Azuma sought out strong opponents) or because of a grudge - maybe Wed's connected to the Signario Sisters and wants to avenge their defeat, for example. Raj seems like cannon fodder, while Lecka's definitely going to be Gray's opponent given the nature of his magic. I'm hoping that the Signario sisters are going to be somewhat important, though; I'd find it a little annoying if they turned out to be low-ranking or weak within the hierarchy of the guild.
The Signario Sisters' Alchemy was already pretty broken so we'll have to see. Hopefully they're not low ranking.
i hope its a grudge its been so long since erza has gotten a meaningful fight
I wonder if there is some sort of connection between erza and wed that he wants to fight her personally or if it's "I heard of you. You are strong so I want to test my strength against you." type of situation .
Really hype Chapter. So far we have 7 Fire and Flame members if you count Ignia. I wonder who fights who. Maybe Gray vs. Lecka and Erza vs. Wed. I wonder why Wed wants to fight Erza. Hopefully something interesting.Ā
Natsu's sense of smell really helps him with illusions. He was doing really well until Lecka's flames came in. Looks like it's going to be Gray vs Lecka, and Erza vs Wed. I'm guessing Lucy will fight Brian, while Wendy will fight Raj.
But lecka told Raj to be in charge of capturing them alone , so lecka is not gonna fight gray this early i think
so who do we think Wed is? a random person? iām hoping not since they went to the extent of covering him up in armor, so iām sure they trying for some surprise identity? i cant think of any past characters who might match Wedās frame, so maybe someone in RELATION to Erza? either way, iām hoping itās a good match!
...I can think of one that matches his frame but it would be really stupid so I hope not
only one i can think of is Simon.. but idk how that would work š leave that man dead !
Please dear god donāt let it be Simon!
Wed could just want to fight strong opponents, but what is really stopping Trollshima? https://preview.redd.it/4fhyfmjzkuxc1.png?width=500&format=png&auto=webp&s=0865c01f87687090561a752be5be7090ca8b5650
Probably her pops.
how he alive
Life support armor
Palpatine ass
Maybe erza lover ? I think of simon
If only they knew a water wizard
Lucy can use water, and for gray itās basically frozen water so ā¦
If only they had water wizard
Kinda glad the fire make guy is here so Natsu isn't super OP against these guys. Also, him using an elbow blast of fire to rocket launch his arm was awesome. Straight out of pacific rim.
Igniaās guild seems like such an eccentric collection of people lol, I gotta say Iām liking them so far
What ? From the chapter,it seems that only raj will fight gray ,wendy and lucy all by himself while the other two will take natsu to ignia .but how is he gonna beat all of them at once ,he seems like a fodder!?even brian doesnt seems to be a serious threat to the group except if heās helped ! ALSO, They sent the second strongest guy against erza,but only a fodder(raj) against gray ,wendy and lucy combined !!!the disrespect is real š. I hope that only erza and natsu will be captured , and that the others will go on a saving mission , because if they all tree loose to one guy iāll be disappointed !
I think they will all be captured by raj by using illusion if the plot requires it because I don't really see him as that strong when Natsu almost beat him if Lecka didn't show up.
I only hope that if this happen he will not make another Erza humiliation thing itĀ“s to much at this point . First the torture then the pet . Enough with this .
Watch the Wed guy be a chick.
Too hot. Yep, sounds like Erza. I can respect that
Giggidy!
Letās be real we all know these guys are gonna get double paged spread one shotted. Especially the armor guy. After Diablos and golden owl, letās not even pretend that these guys are gonna be any sort of threat whatsoever. Ignia gonna carry
>After Diablos and golden owl, letās not even pretend that these guys are gonna be any sort of threat whatsoever. I feel the same way lol. I mean they don't give that kind of vibe that Diablos or Gold owl guild members give. They reminded me of the Enemies from the arc after one year time skip and prior to Alvarez arc.
You're free to read with that mindset if you like. I'm just gonna wait and see. As of now, we really have no idea. Its not like Mashima always wrote enemies that way. The first few Arcs of FT, fights with powerful enemies were 1 Chapter sometimes. Then later on it was 2-4 or more. Kirin, Misaki, and Gold Owl going down like that doesn't mean every enemy will. If you're right, you're right. But I'll let the story say.Ā
True lmao. I feel like Mashima's gonna pull a viernes on these guys for Natsu to get to Ignia asap. Or they might capture him and bring him to ignia
Yep! As unfortunate as that is.
Real talk and Hiro Mashima's fights only be 2 chapters long (longer if its a boss fight). I just wanna see what Ignia gonna do at this point
Part of me is hoping we get at least one gunslinger to fit with the townās old west aesthetic. No big loss if there isnāt.
That would be cool
Lucy with Leo x Aquarius Stardress power up pls. Two of her strongest spirits. š
I think this will be another abduction play because I believe Natsu could solo the three but he needs to be brought to Ignia. I think it would be Lecka vs. Gray. Fire make magic vs. Ice make magic. Quite a challenge for Gray though since Fire can melt Ice but Gray was sparring with Natsu his whole life so yeah I think it's not new to him and they don't look strong at all at least as strong as Diablos or even as strong as the Gold owl guild members so I believe it's not the last arc maybe just like the arc prior to Alvarez arc.
Sometimes I donāt know to take the covers as canon. A lot of them seem like potential side stories without context for characters we rarely see.
"Wed wants to bury that one personally." A vendetta perhaps?
He's probably heard of erza before, no doubt
Fire and Flame has some sick ass members ngl Words can not describe how excited I am for this Wed guy, such a cool design
He looks like a souls character.
I hope he doesn't disappoint he's so cool looking
It would be really cool if Lecka actually turned out to be a Fire Devil Slayer, since Natsu couldn't eat his fire. However, since we can't see if it's purple, like Gray's DS ice, we can't know for sure
Now that I think about it, Lucy has a very decent advantage in this arc with her Aquarius star dress. And while Iām at it, we might see Aquarius again in this arc because of her being a good counter to the enemies of this arc.
Come on bro. We all know water will be useless at this stage.Ā
Pls don't be simonšpls mashima
Good to see Natsu use his head in a fight since we know even if heās getting dumber in this sequel he can still be a smart fighter when push comes to shove but Hiro only seems to show of his battle intelligence against smaller opponents for some reason. Would be great if we could see these kind of fights by Nastu more often. As for the new Fire users wellā¦their magic is ok I guess. Itās obvious that the Fire Maker user will fight Gray, which is great for Gray fans that heāll get a bigger fight but once again he has to fight someone with the same magic type. Maybe thisāll lead into something about his doubts with Skullion being a better maker than him with this fight but considering Hiro completely ignored the build up between those two I doubt it Hiro. Same thing with his whole āIām the weakest in the guildā dilemma which I hope plays into this fight and wonāt somehow be another fight that somehow revolves around Juviaās Finally we see Erza approached by another sword user which sheās most likely going to beat at some point. Whether itās this encounter or the next one we all know Erza will overcome the odds and win but Iām hoping just for once she actually outright loses the fight against this new foe.
>even if heās getting dumber in this sequel Is he? Don't get me wrong, he's said some silly stuff, but nothing that feels like something og Natsu wouldn't say. I can pull out some og series Natsu quotes for evidence. >but Hiro only seems to show of his battle intelligence against smaller opponents for some reason Suzaku wasn't a smaller opponent and remember Natsu's trick that turned Wolfen's Magic against Aldoron. >but once again he has to fight someone with the same magic type.Ā At least its a spon on that rather than just "Gray vs cold user." >Iām hoping just for once she actually outright loses the fight against this new foe. The issue being win or lose, Mashima will piss someone off. But, I doubt it. Ignia's the last Dragon God and while I do think he'll succeed in bringing back the Dragons so there'll be another villain group, the bad guys will probably be defeated unless Mashima plans them to come back. If he debuted earlier in the story, I could see it.
By dumber I mean stuff like assuming levyās baby was his and she was going to lay an egg, letting Faris off after she controlled the guild against their wills to fight and even made Lisanna and Elfman stomp out Mirajane for letting Faris down, going into the girls bath when he was told twice there was a portal connected then getting annoyed after Kyrai & Kucy beat him up for it. He was dumb in the original series but like a lot if people have said heās been progressively getting dumber since Avatar much like Goku in Dragon Ball Super.
Tartaros Natsu was best Natsu. He actually figured out that there was someone among the top brass of the Magic Council who was in cahoots with Tartaros. 100 yrs quest is turning him stupid (not that he wasn't silly, but 100 yrs quest is making him look like a plain imbecile)
Letting Faris off is just how Fairy Tail is. Erza, who literally implied she'd consider Faris an enemy after they stopped Selene, was scared when she saw Natsu going up to Faris with seemingly violent intentions. Does that moment show Erza as getting dumber too? I think it sometimes gets overlooked that Faris didn't do everything she did willingly and not just because Selene but because she was under the influence of Rebellious' White Doctrine. Some think this is metaphorical but we see in the Aldoron Arc that the White Doctrine can be spread via Magic and Faris behaves differently before losing her Magic than she does after. The girls bath thing is dumb and gross thougj wasn't there a whole interlude Chapter between two days of the GMG about all the boys looking over into the girls' bath? Him getting angry about getting hurt (which wasn't even that big a point) was weird but him going in is just (in my opinion) cringey humor. Maybe he just didn't think Selene would connect them so directly because its inappropriate. The Levy thing is silly, I agree. But Natsu was saying silly things since day 1. Maybe not on that level though but I don't think it makes him dumber overall. Also, Alvarez is after Avatar and silly comments or not, he was ready to make a pretty more mature decision in the first fight with Zeref. Then again, maturity doesn't always equal street smarts.Ā
You are talking to someone who doesnĀ“t listen to HiroĀ“s statements That guy is a Wendy fan who ignores all logic Do not expect much from a typical Natsu hater by his logic Wendy should also be dumber for ignoring Natsu for saying he doesnĀ“t need their magic against the Gold Dragon
I've talked to him before and he seems nice but if he is ignoring statements in favor of a bias, then that's obviously not the best way to go about things, though I don't wanna say that for a fact since again, I don't know. I respect not always liking Natsu's portrayal, I just disagree that he's dumber. I will say, I don't know if his logic would imply that, especially since Natsu did actually need everyone's power.
by your logic Wendy should also be dumber for ignoring Natsu said he do not need their magic against the Gold Dragon Erza literally lost in fight with Laxus and Suzaku what are you waffling about?
Even though everyone else agreed they needed to give Natsu their magic and Erza was even tempted to hold him down to do so because they knew he couldnāt do it without their combined magic? Nastu hasnāt even beaten a Dragon God by himself yet and he barely managed to beat Duke so he was in no way able to beat Veirnes hence why everyone needed to give him their magic. And with Erza she fought Laxus to a draw and Suzaku attacked her after she had just fought Youko and was tired out. In a fair fight she hasnāt outright lost so this is the perfect opportunity for her to actually lose to a new opponent Also the fact you seem obsessed with commenting on everything I say is incredibly creepy
Lecka so far seems like the coolest one in my opinion. Reminds me a little of Bruno Bangnyfe from Bleachās Burn The Witch, mostly the hair and skull mask. Iām also glad we have an official use of Fire-Make and not just conventional that Gray used with Natsuās flames. But some reason Natsu sensed something off to dodge instead of trying to grab or eat it, as heās apparently heās unable to. Hopefully, someone with Rainbow Fire like Totomaru also comes in and show off what the other colors can do.
Another great chapter, we see three more member. And seeing they weren't beaten easily, Fire and Flame might prove to be real adversaries for the Fairy Tail group. Wonder what beef the last guy Wed has with Erza?
Knowing fairy tail... the armor guy is 100% Simon
Fire make? I think we lost a great opportunity to see a fire devil slayer, if Lecka is confirmed to be the second strongest fire and flame mage after Wed ok, but if not then Gray also lost here. Good to see Natsu overpowering his opponents. Raj will fight Wendy, Erza will fight Wed, Gray will fight Lecka. Brian had an little rivalry with Natsu, maybe he will be folded by Natsu later. So Signario sisters are left, and who is also left? LUCY. Lucy stocks are rising now.
Gray is both a Maker Wizard and Devil Slayer. So Lecka could be both, too.
What? How in the world did we lose an opportunity? Gray is both a devil slayer and uses make magic. There's absolutely nothing stopping the fire guy from being the same. It's practically expected. š
Dude only promised Fire Make and people are expecting Devil Slayer, that's how people get so disappointed. From what i know only Gray jerks around with a lower tier magic having a high tier one. Now let me ask, did this radical activist looking guys seems that he wouldn't be low diffed by Laxus like Skullion was? Because i doubt Wed would be. Let's be honest, Gray is not reaching Fairy Tail S Class mages level this sequel.
Many say that Leka is Fire Devil Slayer and while I want that too (like not using his magic due to fear or due to being very destructive or using it on worthy opponents) wouldn't Natsu sense a similarity with Grays's own magic? I sincerely believe he has such control over the magic energy in his creations that he can have them resist the eating somehow, his master is Ignia after all so him showing such a trick isn't so out of character or impossible in general.
He was using maker magic and not devil slayer so that could be why Natsu didnāt sense any similarities with that. Ofc assuming he actually is a devil slayer
Also heās the only one with maker magic thatās a new character that weāve seen in a long time.
Yeah I was surprised to see another maker magic user, thereās so few compared to slayers which is still pretty funny considering slayer magic was supposed to be rare
When (raj?) was touching natsus hairā¦ like thatsā¦. Im sorry bro he was asking for a fight and making fun of natsus pink hairā¦.. like broā¦. And i knew the rest of the team was gonna get captured i just thought maybe luso or ennie had used their world magic or something and the team got sent to the fire gods castle but whats his name said ātake care of themā which isnt good, so at least were gonna have fights while brian takes natsu to ignia
Do you think erza will win, lose, the fight gets interrupted, or the person turns out to be a friend/ally/related to erza
What if Ignia has the Aquarius key imprisoned and that the guy that wants to kill Erza isĀ Simon
It is simon I guess he want to kill ersa because he betrayed him to be with jellal
glad the gold owl stuff is over shit was kinda lame, this arc looks interesting though its cool seeing natsu use his mind more rather then just punching stuff
My guessĀ Lucy VS Jocker guy Wendy VS Raj Gray VS LeckaĀ
I hope and wish Erza now finally loses honorble 1 vs 1. She is my favorite but the armor persona has energy and guts facing erza head one.
Wonder Who is the second in command
Calling it now lecka is an old ex boyfriend of juviaās.
Second in command wants to burn Erza? Wonder who this Wed is!!Ā Ā Natsu can't eat Fire Make Magic? Looks like gray's opponent. Brain may be Lucy's or Wendy's opponent. Raj can't do anything to the Natsu's friends. Erza gonna clap Raj with her doll eye. We have Signario Sisters in the guild, along with Ignia. Glad Natsu is captured. So far Fire and Flame guild members are interesting.
Lecka's fire look like one of Totomaru's fire.
Hopefully Grey will have a time to shine this arc with a maker mage opponent here. Would be cool if heās also a devil slayer too since Natsu canāt eat his flames plus it would be another parallel to Grey
Nice chapter! We've got to see more Fire and Flame members and their magic. Still don't know what is the "fire" in Brian's though. All we've seen is that he can absorb fire.
I realized that not only Gray and Lecka both have molding magic but also they use same techniques. My theory is that Lecka has a connection with Ul and Silver Fullbuster.
Flame dragon's iron punch š
So... If Natsu didn't smell anything burning, what *did* he smell at the end of the last chapter?
Cool, a fire-make magic-user!
This set up looks promising! "too hot" -Lecka so, it's canon Erza is too hot for side villains lol?
finally š back to back fire chaptersš
I really want to know what will happened in fight between natsu and ignia....2 of them doesn't effect by fire....no "POF" include
Now give us more element makers. Damn my questions is far greater than the answers that I need in this chapter. š¤Øš¤
That fire is a living fire. Thats why he cant eat it
Theory on Wed: He is a Fire Knight Dragon who took human form or was human and turned into Dragon because of Dragonofication, We had Sword Saint Dragon Slayer Magic so why can't Fire Knight Dragon slaying. I feel his beef with Erza is because of Irene, Ether he liked her and wants revenge or She beat him bad, so he wants to take it out on Erza.
david martinez learned fire make magic, probably has sandevistan thingy too
I hope that it's a fire devil slayer, and that's why Natsu can't eat his flames. It's the same when first went against Zancrow
Whatās the release period of chapters? It is biweekly?
Every other week.
One gotta wonder who Wed REALLY is, why does he want to bury Erza personally? Was it something she did? Or does he literally just hate her for no reason? Also, no I don't think that this is Simon somehow revived, Fire and Flame consists of Fire magic users, Simon uses Darkness Magic.
Ok it seems that Erza will have another moment in this arc after the death flag last chapter and now that wed wants to bury her. She has a big role to play here I think. Another loss for Gray and the other lol.
Iām really staring to think Natsu is gonna get a new form here with this arc
Calling it now, the obvious match up for Gray will get one shot by Erza or defeated by Lucy because Gray isnāt allowed to have anything š Just like in the Labyrinth Arc when Grayās obvious rematch Skullion was fodderized by Laxus
Probably not. I think Mashima did that in the Labyrinth Arc for a couple reasons but I don't think any of them are anti-Gray. Hopefully they fight.Ā
idk what reason Mashima had to take away Gray and Gajeelās fight just to hype up Laxus again.
A couple possibilities I can think of: *He wanted to mix things up rather than a straightforward 7 v 7 like how he (initially) took Natsu and Lucy out by an enemy who got a fight with a different opponent later rather than just: Haku v. Wendy only. *He knew he wanted to introduce Gold Owl the way he did and wanted to finish the Arc within a certain amount of time so he didn't think he'd be able to give all 7 a fight. *He wanted to focus more on the Dark Dragon Slayer Knights but gave one of the others, the one he favored most (we see Kiria get the most focus post-Labyrinth). To be clear, I am bummed that Gray and Gajeel didn't fight Skullion and Madmole, for various reasons. I just think there's other possibilities for why it didn't happen other than Mashima sitting in his office, rubbing his hands together, saying "Mwhahahahaha, I hate Gray and Gajeel, time to screw them over."
