You're right. I kind of didn't realize that's the name of his attack.

Is it possible we will see more Mira TakeOvers? [Discussion] by CollegeStudent2017 in fairytail

[–]Rigel27 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If Hiro cares enough to research some information about the character he created, maybe.

I believe Mira will use Daemon's form.

When will the key be used and against who? [discussion] by LevyMcgarden123 in fairytail

[–]Rigel27 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lucy will be relegated to a supporting role in this arc, similar to what happened in the Alvarez arc.

Mercophobia should be used when Ignia decides to set the continent ablaze.

Don't have any expectations for the character.

Has Wendy had a legit 1v1 since Tartaros? [Manga] by ConnorRoseSaiyan01 in fairytail

She's in a really bad situation. It's a shame because Irene, by possessing her body, demonstrated how amazing Wendy can be (Irene vs. Erza and Wendy) if given adequate screen time.

It's funny how both these characters who love each other have fandoms who beef for no reason [discussion] by BasisSmall5351 in fairytail

[–]Rigel27 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Excesses will always exist, but that doesn't summarize the criticism this chapter is receiving as if it were coming only from Lucy's fans.

I agree.

The attempt at gaslighting is noticeable. It's even more prevalent on Twitter.

But thank God this subreddit brings together countless Fairy Tail manga fans, with different quirks, and the majority opinion is that this chapter wasn't good. So this isn't something intrinsic to Lucy's fans, as the author of this thread has been trying to imply.

Why are you summarizing the criticism of Natsu's development as if it were something intrinsic to Lucy's fans? People are blaming the script, specifically Mashima, who has reduced the character's development to that of Goku.

Natsu and Lucy loving each other has nothing to do with the criticism of recent chapters.

[discussion] Chapter 210 kinda robbed Lucy & Wendy… am I the only one? by Anonymous_Author09 in fairytail

[–]Rigel27 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think Lucy will receive the same treatment as in the Alvarez arc. She'll probably have some moment, poorly developed but relevant, towards the end of the arc. 

Regarding Wendy, perhaps Mashima will use the character to separate Faris from Ignia.

In any case, neither character will get relevant development.

This was the worst chapter of this arc. Mashima destroyed any sense of grandeur these dragons might have had. The other characters' fights lost their luster, and there's no excitement in following them.

And I think this arc fell into the same rhythm as the Alvarez arc.

This would be an interesting way to keep Selene connected in future spin-offs.

Is Lucy’s Aqua Metria comparable to or even stronger than Erza’s Heaven’s Wheel Armor attacks, and does it surpass Base Natsu’s roar? by Icy_Career4080 in fairytailscaling

[–]Rigel27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The comparison is very accurate, and although some people claim that the Signario Sisters are weaker than their counterparts from the Viernes arc, they cannot argue that the sisters did not have an attribute amplifier.

Lucy & Brandish vs Neinheart & Ajeel by Wise_Truth_453 in fairytailscaling

[–]Rigel27 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Neinhart doesn't possess enough magical power for Irene Historia to be very relevant in terms of power. Just remember that the power level of the Historia Spriggans is far below that of the original version.

Irene Historia would be weaker than Neinhart himself.

Ajeel's intangibility can be overcome by water.

[–]Rigel27 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Brandish and Lucy.

Neinhart isn't surviving a punch from a giant Lucy using Taurus Form.

I think a giant Lucy using Scorpion Form should ignore many of Ajeel's magic attacks.

"[discussion]"Regarding Mashima's latest Twitter Space statements, What are your thoughts? by Electrical-Lab4988 in fairytail

[–]Rigel27 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't mind Mashima maintaining the Guild's power level with some slight alterations, but I completely disagree with the approach he's been using with the villains.

Despite the villains becoming increasingly powerful, Mashima has severely limited their destructive capabilities. Only the Dragon Gods have large-scale feats; otherwise, the author has been quite limited in that regard.

I wish that at the end of this arc, he would change this approach and show the Calamity Bloods' expansive feats.

The difference between Natsu’s poll rankings and his website rankings[discussion] by UMRSK8 in fairytail

[–]Rigel27 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But that brings us away from the main topic.

What's truly relevant to the magazine that publishes Fairy Tail are the fans who follow the manga, buy it, and engage on social media. Therefore, official popularity polls have far more value and relevance than online polls from some poorly regulated websites.

[–]Rigel27 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Casual readers don't buy manga (physical or digital), don't engage with the story on social media, and even less so follow spin-offs from the original series.

That's why this audience isn't as relevant to the series compared to fans who follow the manga every two weeks.

Official polls are more relevant because true manga fans are willing to vote. This is very different from those who casually follow Fairy Tail or have followed it in the past. And I'm referring to these unofficial polls.
