User blog:Darknesslover5000/Fairy Tail 257 - Father's Seven Years



Alright, I'm rather late here, since this chapter decided to f**k with me and come out just as I want to go to bed. I also shouldn't be online right now (too early) and am right in the middle of Kodomo no Jikan, so I'll make this quick but good.

Not alot happened here, but this chapter was worth the wait to me. We start off at the graves of the parents. I thought Layla went missing, not died? Maybe my memory's muddled. Anyway, we meet these strange alien creatures I assume are females, due to their speech patterns, going on and on about how they dislike their father (basically like every teenage girl). Natsu yells at them to shut up, saying they can't read the mood around here. Has he ever been able to read the mood of a situation? It's a nice gesture anyway.

Then, cut to negotiations between Fairy Tail and the Twilight Ogre guild, the master of which looks like a lizard man. They've invaded manga. Anwyay, they demand to be payed what they're owed, yes? So, Erza and Mirajane and the geezer do pay them what they're owed, just not in cash. "Hey child. Here's what we owe to war." I love that line. Then Natsu and Happy come back looking drained. Cue the landlady coming back and Lucy once again depriving us of what could be a pantyshot. Why does that happen? -.- Anyway, so the landlady has cleaned her room over the past seven years...and stole an outfit. Wtf? Anyway, the touching moment comes in when it turns out Judo has sent his daughter birthday presents ever year since her disappearance. Long story short, he always did love her, it just took him a few chapters of being an ass, another of being deprived of his money, plus seven years of his daughter missing to realize it. Great parenting, eh? Also, he payed her rent. How he knew how to do this while dead is beyond me Ghosts anyone? Then...they resume work. Hiro, you did a great chapter. Now, tell us WTF has happened to Jellal bloody dammit!!! Since there wasn't much of a fight and they only appeared in a small panel, I am too lazy to list the techniques used by Erza and Mirajane. HAPPY HALLOWEEN btw.
