[Tikibo]

We know how this will end right?

 

[Korvalus]

@Tikibo: Who knows. So far Mashima as went away with several of his FT's tropes and this work is a bit on the darker side

 

[Nakanowatari]

The whole thing rub me as if Draken is playing the bad guy to awaken Shiki and Rebecca. I have a feeling Weisz was cured offscreen and agreed to play along or something like that

 

[Abedeus]

what the fuck mashima

 

[Zhou]

I still don't trust Mashima, so I'm waiting for some BS to happen.

 

[sakuchu]

That took a really dark turn!

 

[SSJR2]

Damn Mashima definitely said fuck the power of friendship in these last two chapters lol. While it sucks to see him like this its important for characters to lose sometimes for more growth later and better anticipation for threats. Glad Mashima is learning this again.

 

[4V29LN0n]

Dafuq.

 

[kyrex]

This comes off as Mashima getting desperate because people are dropping this series due to its contrived writing. Make things edgy and desperate for a couple chapters so it seems triumphant when an asspull win is handed to the heroes.

 

[TakeiDaloui]

@kyrex What makes you think people are dropping the series? Are there some stats somewhere of this?

 

[Dantrig]

Woah. I haven't seen Mashima pull anything this dark since Rave Master. Its cool to see him move away from the overly simplistic shonen tropes in Fairy Tail.

 

[BobBob]

broke: weisz's arm, shiki's leg, happy, pino, team good guys's hopes and dreams
WOKE: THE RED BULL

 

[OsoJr]

"A friend? That's just a member of a community who you travel and empathize with." Uuuh, yes...yeah that would be one way to define a friend. Talk about materialistic.

 

[Warko]

@Dantrig he also kinda broke Scarlet's face with a bat

 

[panoma]

So Drakken Joe is basically negan here.

 

[AngleBoi7]

The Galactic force did say Drakken is the most dangerous criminal of the universe.

This does have vibes of the "Final Boss/Fight Preview" trope, which would mean this will end in escaping or getting rescued, then them getting experience elsewhere.

 

[Kayriel]

@kyrex

Will you stop? ALL victories in stories are asspull wins. Because they were all decided beforehand. None of these characters are real, none of them are struggling, there is no 'will they win or lose?!'. It's all been decided long before you ever heard the title. That's what a plot is.

All of you people saying shit like that acting like you know what you're talking about when you forget it's all just writing with some art added in later. Someone wrote every win and loss that will happen FIRST. If someone's in a slugfest for twenty chapters and wins, that was decided, it's no different than getting your ass beat for awhile and suddenly something happens that wins the fight. It's all just pre-written situations to lead to the win or loss for that scene. Neither are believable. Neither matter.

Just find something you can enjoy or leave.

 

[Longn4]

>cut off the arm of the guy who who'll probably get a power boost from a prosthesis
Dude wasnt even conscious for the dismembering, that aint shit

 

[NeroPR]

At this point, I feel this last chapter was a message from Mashima flexing on his readers, and he is saying: Look, I too can write good stories when I want

Nonetheless, I'm not confident yet. Mashima has a bad habit of making the stakes too high to have a decent way of resolving the conflict.
