"It will be a one-sided massacre. Not a single soul shall escape my wrath."

- Zeref to Mavis

Welcome to the Chapter Review Corner

Fairy Tail 338
The easiest of these chapters to get put of the way. Had this not been a three-chapter week, I'm quite sure this would have irritated me, as nothing got done in this chapter. It was simply a relaxing chapter where everyone attended a ball in the King's palace. Just seeing Wendy and Chelia together (with Romeo nowhere in sight) made this a good chapter for me. And Kagura wants an Onee-sama. Which was adorable. It was also nice to see the development of Sting, and Sabertooth in general. The ending of this chapter had me rolling, as much as I hate Natsu, it was hilarious. This is going to sound stupid but...why does Bob (the guild master) look so utterly hideous? I mean, why crossdress in a series where you have access to magic transformation skills? Logic Bob, logic.

Fairy Tail 339
Ul isn't dead. I could sum the chapter up with that and move on, and believe me, I actually want to, I have one more chapter to do here. Sadly, there's a but more to this that I need to get the heck out of the way. So, Doranbolt altered the memories of the entire Magic Council, to make them forget the entire ordeal...hmm...-takes notes-, and Cobra seems to be intent on reforming the Oracion Seis. Additionally, Tartaros is finally starting to move. Thanks Hiro, it's only been...years. Additionally, Ul is now an old lady. Not dead, just old. I actually like this. While I am not pleased the young Ul is gone, I like how Hiro resolved this. it's better than her dying thinking she was worthless, now she knows she pretty much was the deciding factor.

Fairy Tail 340
Finally, the chapter that mattered. Fairy Tail returns to Magnolia (did I mention Natsu stole the royal crown?) where ''everyone welcomes them back, and they even rebuilt the original Fairy Tail building! Meanwhile, Obra (I firmly believe that little demon creature is the true Obra) approaches Zeref, who is once again sitting alone. Mavis appears, and it seems she and Zeref have some connection to each other. While unable to hear or see her, he seems to be able to understand what she thinks about him to a degree, as they have a...."conversation"? Zeref explains he's already found out his place to die, and that, the end of the world is coming, by his own hand, he will annihilate everyone in a "one-sided massacre". Mavis, naturally, says Fairy Tail will be the one to massacre him....pretty sure that's a misuse of the word, but she's dead, I'll cut her some slack.

Chapter 338
The first chapter was OKAY. It had very good art, detail all around from the clothes to the scenery. 10/10. There wasn't really much plot to speak of, so much as a bit of development for Sting and Sabertooth, so, 5/10.

Chapter 339
As always, Fairy Tail has awesome art, we had some beautiful scenery too. 10/10. The story, it was nice to see the resolution with Ul, as well as setting up for Tartaros in this chapter. 7/10. Overall, a very good chapter.

Chapter 340
Now this was where it got good. The art in Fairy Tail is always worth it's 10/10 rating, I loved the scenes, the Fairy Tail building, and Mavis' and Zeref's "I will kill you" faces. The story is a total 10/10. The plot is FINALLY thickening, Zeref is making his move, plotting to destroy ALL OF HUMANITY, and after the recent BULLSHIT chapters, Excellent is a proper rating indeed.

Please note, next week also has 3 chapters in a row, and thus, the reviews will be like this, and probably won't be done before Monday.
