Fabricated posted:The Grey and Juvia relationship will prove that in the end, being a creepy stalker who doesn't value other people's personal space is the path to love. The Juvia/Gray relationship is comparatively normal when you consider the rest of the relationships in Fairy Tail. Like the only one that isn't at least weird is Elfman/Evergreen.

New chapter is up on MS. Neinhart went down too easily after the hype about his defenses being strong enough to block Brandish's magic, but that's Fairy Tail for you. Also, while Mashima at least managed to make some sense of how Brandish feels about Natsu and Lucy, the relationship between Brandish and Dimaria is as confusing as ever. First they seemed to hate each other, then Dimaria seemed to really miss Brandish when they were imprisoned separately, then it seemed like Dimaria was acting insincerely clingy towards Brandish because she'd become terrified of Fairy Tail and wanted a strong ally, now she's Brandish's jealous ex-girlfriend? It's a common sentiment here that flashbacks are overused in shonen, but I think a flashback here would help a lot.

Can Lucy get a clean win for once? Also Mashima (and shounen generally) needs to learn that enemies with basically instant win powers that they just ~choose not to use~ need very good writing to justify that or they end up sucking away any tension.

Flashback is not needed, it's Mashima hinting at a lesbian relationship, but because its a battle shonen all the mandatory violence and torture makes it more abusive than provocative

Simoom posted:Flashback is not needed, it's Mashima hinting at a lesbian relationship, but because its a battle shonen all the mandatory violence and torture makes it more abusive than provocative See, Mashima actually did something similar with Kyouka and Sayla in the Tartaros arc, but it worked there (at least somewhat) because for all the torturing Kyouka did to people other than Sayla, she and Sayla seemed to sincerely care about each other. (It's pretty much the only time Mashima has humanized a villain without having them become a "good guy.") Here it just doesn't work because the first thing we learn about Dimaria is that she and Brandish can't stand each other. And you can't even say it's just a tsundere thing, because after Dimaria escapes from prison she's all "I'm sorry about all the awful things I said to you! Now let's go kill these Ishgar guys together and definitely avoid getting into fights alone!"

I just realized Mashima can't even keep it consistent over the course of a few pages. Dimaria on page 20 (smugly): "Such a pity, Randi...You're simply no good to us any more." On page 21 she's frowning as she slices up Brandish. I guess that could be taken as regretting what she feels she had no choice but to do? Dimaria on page 22: "Tell me...Are you the one responsible for corrupting my Randi?" Then on page 23 she's enraged and crying. From smug indifference to yandere love in just a couple pages.

Mashima just realized he's running out of time to write gazey lesbian side characters considering it's the mangas endgame and is just trying out every single variation of Randi and Maris relationship he can while he has the chance.

Its sad how far behind the power creep curve Lucy is.

The_Angry_Turtle posted:Its sad how far behind the power creep curve Lucy is. Assuming the Time God inside Dimaria was burned out of her by Chelia's God Slayer powers, Lucy should be able to win without too much trouble. I like the ambiguity where Lucy is surprised by Dimaria's speed when she slices up Brandish, but it isn't explicitly stated that Dimaria stopped time.

I actually like Lucy's powers post upgrade, which are basically just Erza's before Erza more or less stopped using hers. The only real problem is apparently Aquarius was the only spirit who was actually worth a drat and I guess it's a law that Lucy is never allowed to win fights.

Lucy didn't even get to job to the size mage. Even her jobbing gets interrupted now.

She had one job and she can't even job that job before she'd jobbed out of the way.

Is there a term for powers in shonen you have but can't use because of censorship? Like yeah you could explode everyone's spleens but you're not allowed since that would be too gory so instead giantess fetish.

Spiderdrake posted:Is there a term for powers in shonen you have but can't use because of censorship? The term is Could Have Been Messy. Though in this case I think the issue is less censorship and more keeping main characters alive. Edit: Actually, it's more specifically Inverse Law of Utility and Lethality.

Didn't she show off her key upgrade with the fight versus Jason Statham? I think she used Gemini in that one and her outfit was similar to a jester. I figured you guys would at least remember stuff with Statham.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OaTO8_KNcuo Jesus, we finally remember that Natsu had magic cancer and it turns out it wasn't magic cancer this whole time. It was actually way more dangerous than magic cancer, but will inevitably be turned into a power up. Since Lucy is technically the protagonist of the manga, is there any other protagonist ever who managed never, ever win. Not even once?
