Welcome to the Chapter Review Corner Plutia: Good morning...or is it evening? Um..it's time to review! Vert: Today's presenters are Vert and Plutia. Plutia: Let's report real good, Vert... Vert: So I'm just Vert...whatever, let's continue.

Fairy Tail 326 - Natsu vs. Rogue


As the chapter begins, it appears to be June 7th again. That date seems to be fairly important in Fairy Tail. I have to wonder why. What is it with sequences of seven? Even this new future Rogue is from seven years in the future. And Lucy is still staring at the gate. Trust me, this gets important later. Rogue and Natsu are going at it, and this fight is about as fair as Jason's fight with Crux.

Plutia: Isn't this just becoming weaker and weaker...?

While you'd expect it to do damage, Rogue reveals..."White Shadow Dragon Mode" and proceeds to absolutely beat Natsu down. This isn't even a fight anymore.

Plutia: Hehehehe...so he can make light and shadow into a punishment tool? Vert: Plutia...I'm rather concerned about your state of mind.

To utterly top this off, it's revealed Rogue actually killed off Sting in the future to obtain this power, and he's about to kill Natsu before he gets saved by Ul of all people, but Rogue manages to escape as Natsu begins to fall into the shadows. Meanwhile, the Gates begin to open and...you know what, I won't even say it, I'll just show it because I was really irritated by this moment. Vert: ...why does looking at her chest infuriate me so?!

Lucy, knowing full well that she would close the gates in the future, decided the best thing to do was stand in front of the very gates she was said to close. Call it what you want, I call it stupidity.

With that, let's bring up the scores.

Score
Fairy Tail always has good art style, and I enjoyed the battle effects this chapter, so, 10/10. The story, overall, is 6.5/10. It was alright, and we're heading somewhere, but I wasn't enthralled. The fight was 7.5/10. I rather enjoyed seeing Natsu lose for the first time in ages, so..kudos to Rogue. Overall, a Very Good chapter.

Plutia: Oh, what's this? Um..a scandal involving Leanbox's CPU? Vert: Pardon? What is this? I don't recall anything like this. Plutia: In a magazine coming out next week, there is a risque photospread of Green Heart... Vert: Yes, that photoshoot did happen, but... Plutia: And the 'profile' section has of course, her three sizes and her real age printed. Vert: WHAT!? Plutia: Yipes...! That was scary... Vert: W-what is this!? Publicly revealing a lady, no, a CPU's real age? How reckless and rude! I cannot stand by and let this happen! Plutia: Huh? Are you going home...? Vert: Yes! I must stop the presses...and also destroy the publisher along the way. Plutia: Okie-dokie...do you best. Um...can I end it here? Histoire: -nod, nod- Plutia: Histy is nodding at me, so...okay, that's all! Bye-bye!
