Meanwhile, in other news that may make certain areas of the internet more insufferable than usual, a Fairy Tail novel was released yesterday. Apparently the plot is Natsu and Lucy having to babysit a brother and sister twin duo. The part that's making everyone lose their poo poo is that they're apparently Gajeel and Levy's future children.

The cover

Now, as a side novel, it's technically not canon. But I think Mashima's current policy is something like as long as he doesn't directly contradict it, it's canon. So congratulations, Gajeel and Levy?

I assume there's time travel afoot.

But that's fine they're best couple. If best couple is confirmed then that can only be a good thing.

Time travel shenanigans seem to be in play, yes. Not much has come out, just chapter illustrations and a quick sorta summary.

But, chapter 478 is out, in which Lucy loses more clothes, and Statham is a bit of a prude.

Yeah I laughed at that. You expect he's going to be a giant perv but he's the most precocious of all.

I mean I appreciate that FT at least keeps itself somewhat tongue in cheek.

I like the self awareness, but at the same time this goes for the viewer as well. Seeing Lucy in various states of undress does nothing for me.
That said, I do like how they used it even if it did make Jason Statham look like a complete goober.

Mavis looking at Jason wiz's reaction to Lucy gave her the ultimate plan: set up lacrima vision all over the battlefield like the grand magic games and show lucy to everybody. The answer all along wasn't in a fiery fist, but in tity.

The secret to Zeref's power is actually latent virgin rage, honed over centuries of isolation

In all seriousness, I imagine the insight Mavis had will involve, somehow, exploiting a weakness of Zeref's own design, like Jacob created for himself. Possibly involving a flaw in Zeref himself, or his underlings.

He's weak to combination flying and up kicks, but only if they involve fire and fanservice. And he would have gotten away with it, if it wasn't for prudish Jason Statham.

Yeah it's why he instantly defeated Erza and Lucy. But Brandish has done more damage to her own team then Fairy Tail has as result of her treatment of the massive asset that is Marin. Marin has been much more impressive then her.

Just by instantly negating Erza the guy has been better built up and more threatening to the heroes than any of the 12 arc villains

and she kept her clothes on... even though losing the star dress was an opportunity for more fanservice.

He also negated Erza during her fight with Ajeel while he was nowhere near her and the only reason Erza was able to take him down. (Other then the cannon) is because Brandish was a jerk and did not return Marin to normal size like she was told to result in Lucy stomping on him.

The guy was also able to fight Gray and Natsu at the same time and keep up with them.

He didn't pass up the opportunity, she was naked, if glowing, for a panel during the "dress cancel" bit. It's kind of like how Erza is always naked for a panel or two when she swaps gear nowadays.

Yep, not sure who half of these people are. Pretty funny that he's pretty much a better version of Lucy, although your ammo having to be dead is a little limiting. If this guy was the poo poo though he'd be res'ing dragons.

I remember Azuma.

I don't want to remember Kouka.

I don't remember the other sword chick though I'm guessing she was the one teemed up with the Owl who fought Natsu and the Rocker who fought Juvia and Lucy during the Tower arc.

God please tell me I'm wrong.

Apparently they changed it so she survived in the anime, so if they ever animate this they'll have to retcon it, say she's actually an illusion, or that she died of cancer a few years ago. :3:

Please don't have the resurrected souls overcome the magic and turn on the wizard dude. Oh god, he's gonna summon a dragon or something and get hosed up. Maybe that demon thingy that Grey tried to kill.

Also Ur isn't dead. They were very clear that her soul was just part of the ocean now.

I wonder how many Jellals he can summon.
