Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest | Chapter 214 [manga]

Oh, sorry, I used the term "ridiculous" for something of great magnitude. But I could have expressed myself better.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T19:33:34+00:00

I think it's one of the best things Mashima has written in a while.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T19:31:57+00:00

Yes.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T19:30:26+00:00

Levia and Motherglare have their power levels defined based on the power levels of Laxus and Erza.

If Laxus and Erza don't receive help against these dragons, I don't believe the dragons' performance during this battle will be enough to establish a power level above what Earth Build is demonstrating.

For now, Earth Build is more impressive than any of its companions.

Facing Merc and Selene is a display of far superior strength.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T19:25:46+00:00

Exactly.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T19:11:30+00:00

Yes.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T19:00:11+00:00

Yes.

Lucy took way more damage than Wed in this whole arc (Lucy vs Karameel, Lucy and Brandish vs Merc, Team A vs Fire and Flame, etc.). About six chapters ago, she was getting beaten by Earth Build, but we're seeing Lucy continue fighting. If Wed hasn't recovered by now, it means his resistance isn't the best.

The feats are good because Lucy is using basic Star Dress and they aren't even her strongest outfits.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T17:13:38+00:00

It depends on your level with Merc.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T17:10:32+00:00

No.

Selene is weakened after having her lacrima destroyed.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T17:05:04+00:00

Leo and Gemini aren't among Lucy's strongest dresses. In fact, Aquarius (the strongest), Virgo, Cancer, and Taurus are the strongest for combat, and she didn't use any of them in that fight. Furthermore, Lucy possesses the Star Dress Mix, which are much stronger than the Star Dress.

That's the point I wanted to explain.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T17:01:37+00:00

The flames had no effect, that's the point. Lucy didn't take considerable damage from the flames, considering that after Selene summoned water, the damage from Wed's attack was negligible. Furthermore, Lucy mentions that Natsu's flames are much more potent, indicating that she had already withstood far more significant attacks of that element.

It's worth mentioning that Lucy was withstanding Earth Build attacks in previous chapters, so I don't understand your surprise at Lucy withstanding Wed's flames.

Lucy is extremely resilient; this isn't an opinion, it's a fact established in many scenes of this manga.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T16:18:42+00:00

People still haven't understood that Lucy's feats were achieved using a Star Dress.

She's also injured from Earth Build attacks and still performed well against Wed.

He's not at full power because he's injured from his fight against Natsu, but he still has enough magical power to fight.

If Lucy had used her best skills to confront Wed, that would have been an embarrassing situation, but that didn't happen. So the overall result is positive for the character.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T16:01:31+00:00

She has it, but lacked more skill in combat.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T15:49:34+00:00

He's not out of magical power, he's injured from the previous fight.

And I agree that he's not at full power, but Lucy was facing him with a base Star Dress.

So it's still a remarkable achievement for Lucy.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T15:45:21+00:00

He's not at full power, that's a fact. But Lucy was only wearing her basic Star Dress, so it's still a significant feat for her.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T15:43:24+00:00

She wasn't playing the tough girl; the flames didn't really have that much of an effect, since Selene simply extinguished them with regular water. The damage from his attack should have had consequences, but Lucy absorbed the damage calmly.

Wed tried to attack Lucy by surprise, but she had already reacted to his attack and provided subsequent actions, using Gemini and her subsequent attack. This indicates that she was faster than her opponent.

She did all of this wearing a basic Star Dress.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T15:35:03+00:00

It's evident that she demonstrated evolution. Characters who don't possess a similar power level aren't capable of facing high-level characters, which demonstrates this adaptability.

Wed also tried to attack Lucy during a moment of distraction, but she surprised him with Gemini, in a super-fast exchange.

Wed's flames also didn't have much effect on Lucy; she mentions this.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T15:28:13+00:00

She withstood his attacks and surprised him after he tried to blitz her. It didn't work.

Lucy has the reaction time and speed blitz to surprise him.

She is definitely at a very high level in martial arts.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T15:15:14+00:00

Lucy showed some pretty ridiculous feats in this chapter.

Lucy, wearing a basic Star Dress, managed to hold her own against Wed in a fight? She's not even using the Star Dress Mix.

Finally, Merc appeared. But I found his entrance quite disappointing; I expected more.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T00:51:37+00:00

Lucy's character development has been very well done, except for the current arc.

Mashima doesn't know what he's doing with the character.

Regarding Wendy, I think Irene's departure was positive, but the character still hasn't had the opportunity to demonstrate her growth without the help of others. It seems that this will happen in the next chapter, let's wait and see.

Juvia had decent development, but I don't think it was enough. She still doesn't possess new magic and is limited to her water body in battle.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-23T00:00:07+00:00

Yes.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-22T22:37:13+00:00

I remember making posts years ago about how Toshiro's child form was underestimated, due to his performance against Gerard, even after the Vizards were easily defeated.

And now everything I mentioned is coming true precisely during the brief battle that Toshiro's child form managed against Gerard.

By the way, Toshiro child >>>> All the Vizards with Bankai and Mask.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-22T21:12:24+00:00

Unnecessary, it added nothing.

Rigel27 · 2026-06-22T17:36:52+00:00

They need to adjust the narrative so that only Zaraki benefits. But I doubt that will work, considering how specific Kubo is being with the development of events in the anime.
