User blog:LastationLover5000/Fairy Tail 313 - In Which I Didn't Even Expect A Chapter Release (The King's Scenario)

"Pulling the strings and making others move to your whim...that is what defines a King. The two of you should be flattered...even for someone as heralded as myself, I'd be lucky to leave unscathed if I took both of you on at the same time. See, I just paid both of you a compliment. Remember this...a king must win using all means necessary."

"The scenario I came up with brings us the ultimate victory. Watch me shine, Lector."

- Sting Eucliffe

Welcome to the Chapter Review Corner



Hey guys! Fairy Tail is out today, which means another blog for today. To those new to my blogs, welcome. To my continued readership, all I have to say is thanks.



It's time to push the button

You can imagine my surprise when this chapter came out. I was under the assumption that Fairy Tail was in the same boat as the Big Three of JUMP, no chapters until the third week of January, but apparently, whatever magazine Fairy Tail is published in adheres to the Japanese rule of work 'till you die, because, here we are. This chapter was a life saver too. I was talking to someone on Chatango yesterday, and getting increasingly more annoyed, and then, Per to the rescue with an awesome Fairy Tail chapter. Also, before we begin, Per and I also reviewed Fairy Tail OVA 4, so, go check that out.

So it starts with Future!Lucy stating she came back using the Eclipse Gate, and everyone looking very shocked and confused, none more so than Loke (understandable, since it is another version of his owner he's seeing). Future!Lucy tries to tell them something that will happen to the country (most likely everything goes BOOM!), but then she faints. They take her back with them, while the Princess and midget guy whose name I still cannot remember are chatting still about the Eclipse Gate and the Eclipse Plan. She's already unlocked the Gate, all that is left is to push it open. Yeah, just like the police, wait until it's too late, then interfere.

Back on the battlefield, Kagura and Erza are understandably quite pissed that their mutual friend is captured by such a bitch. Naturally, Minerva declines, so Kagura charges right on in, no plan, no backup, no weapons worth a damn...and doesn't that scare you to death? However, using her magic that we still don't know much about, she switches out with Erza. I say it time and time again, badass action girls is what sets Fairy Tail apart from the rest.

Naturally, Erza calls Minerva out on, well running like a bitch, but Minerva says she's only doing what's natural, using any means necessary to win, and she's not exactly wrong, there never were any rules against what she's doing. Erza demands that she give Milliana back...only for Kagura to flip her shit, and tell Erza not to pretend to be Milliana's friend. Kagura, I may like you, but you are also a bitch. Minerva books it while Erza and Kagura continue their battle. Kagura makes it clear she utterly despises Erza. Meanwhile...

Gajeel is gonna win that, it seriously isn't even worth mentioning. Rogue can't have improved, it has literally been a day, maybe two, since he and Sting got their asses utterly handed to them by Natsu. Gajeel isn't a slacker, Rogue's attacks barely did any damage to him the last time they fought. This one'll end with Sting proclaiming his undying love for Gajeel and of course, getting rejected, because Gajeel and Levy everywhere. Hear that? Hear that? That's every fan of this manga ever wetting themselves with excitement.

This is gonna be the highlight of Fairy Tail for quite awhile. Laxus is one of the best characters in the entire series, and one of the strongest as well. I can't say Orga doesn't stand a chance, because we've seen how a Dragon Slayer vs a God Slayer works out, the God Slayers are usually at the advantage for awhile, but this. Is. Laxus! Seriously, I want an entire chapter, no, two chapter, devoted to this fight alone. I could care less for now why Lucy came back in time. Laxus vs Orga. StingPlanVictory313.png

Now we have to wonder...what is your plan, Sting? Are you gonna ruin shit for the entire country? Are YOU the reason Lucy came back in time? All of that, and more, will be revealed...not right now.

Poll
Which fight do you want to see the most? Erza vs Kagura Gajeel vs Sting Laxus vs Orga I can't decide.

Score
This is another Excellent chapter. The art is always great, it's Fairy Tail. They have scenery, awesome character designs, fight scenes drawn so well it makes me jealous. 10/10. The story is moving along quite nicely. The gate is Unlocked, Future!Lucy is with Fairy Tail, we have the designated match-ups of anyone we care about, and Sting has a plan, the question is what is it? 10/10. The fight, thought we didn't get alot, as excellent. Minerva is a manipulative bastard, but it was a well drawn fight, especially the clash between Kagura and Erza, I like how this is turning out. 10/10. Overall, an excellent chapter this week, keep putting out quality work Hiro.

Fairy Tail is all done for today, but I it'll be back next week with Fairy Tail 314 - Erza vs Kagura. Anyway, comment as you please, I enjoy them, go wild, I don't care if you keep it clean.
