User blog:Phantombeast/Phantom's Ring of Hope - Fairy Tail 384: Attack of the stars

Welcome Call of Fairy Tail requires the special dance



Morning/Afternoon/Evening all and welcome to another exciting edition of my Ring of Hope, and today's segment will be on this week's chapter of Fairy Tail: Attack of The Stars. Now then, if everyone is comfy, has gone to the bathroom and changed into fresh undies, let's get this show on the road.



When we last left Lucy, she had just landed her self against Remy, Jackal, and Torafusa, all while weakened from the brutal attacks and summoning up to two Celestial Spirits. However, with her iron clad will and determination for those she saw as family, she used up the last bit of her strength to summon up Aquarius, her first spirit ever. With Aquarius in hand, she starts to show everyone why she isn't someone you want to mess with, or worse, keep her from a date...

Swirly!!!!

Hiro's way of giving the reader a bit of reparation is a really interesting way to get us ready to surprise us when we realize that Torafusa is apparently unaffected by water of any kind (TMNT 2003 Theme Song Plays) and with one slash, gravely injuries Aquarius while Jackal makes living bombs out of Loke and Virgo.

If this doesn't scream turtle, I don't know what does

With the following scenes trying her damnedest to figure a way to continue fighting, you can't help but feel bad at her, almost like it's some schoolyard bully picking on the new kid first day. And to add insult to injury, Jackal basically explodes her leg, making it nearly impossible for her to escape now, all while he and Remy laugh and taunt her. (Can only imagine what Natsu will do to Jackal if he saw all this happening....). However, in what can be described as an abnormal event, Torafusa seems to be a semi-voice of reason as he basically tells them to just get it over with instead of playing around, making me wonder if Torafusa is different from the other demons, both he and Kyokuya both seem to have something about them that interests me. However, Jackal's threat just seems to bore Torafusa as he leaves them to do whatever they want to poor Lucy.

Trouble amongst Demons, rare...

In what can be described as this blogger's happiest day of his life, Remy tries to convince Jackal to blow up Lucy's boobs, but before her last boom-boom, Jackal simply touches Remy, and with one swoop blows her up to kingdom come (angels sing in the background).

''Ding dong, the bunny's dead, the bunny's dead, the bunny's dead. Ding-dong the bunny's dead and it's a happy day :)''

(Took me all day to come up with that rhyme). Seeing this shocked Lucy as she recognized that demons only care to kill and do anything they want, even to their own comrades. However, before Jackal can give the final blow to her, Aquarius comes back into the fold, protecting Lucy from the attack as she is pushing him back. With only a limited time, She then tells Lucy that the only way to win was to summon the most powerful spirit of all time.... MR. MUSTACHE!

Of course it always comes down to old guys with weird-ass mustaches

With the requirements and risks realized, Lucy immediately regrets the idea, showing the human side we have come to know and respect about Hiro. Even when it is a being from another world, there's no cost worth losing connections with your best friends. Hiro also begins to show how much Aquarius is putting up a front, all of which is directed towards Lucy's own desires to save her friends, even if the two can never see each other again. After all the emotional turmoil, Lucy breaks the key and summons the Celestial Spirit King. However, in one final show of friendship, Aquarius realizes now that she always loved Lucy as a friend, and deep down, she was going to miss her most of all.

Reminds me of when Yugi either had to beat Kiba or let him win to live

With the key now broken, there begins to show what appears to be a meteor heading down to the earth, only it's not a meteor at all...

Cuts things like butter!!

The one and only Celestial Spirit King finally arrives at the scene, bring down the cube like it was nothing as the entire base is shown to start crumbling, all while Lucy cries at the loss of her best friend. However, in an unexpected foreshadowing, it shows to appear that both the King of Hades and the Celestial Spirit King have met before, hinting that there might be a chance Aquarius will return with Lucy once more.

All in all, this 30 page chapter was quite an enjoyable read, especially with the tear-jerking moment between Lucy and Aquarius, something everyone didn't expect when they saw both girls for the first time. I give this chapter a ten out of ten, a perfect score for the week! That's all the time we have folks, on next time's Ring of Hope, we will be reviewing the next awesome chapter to come - Fairy Tail 385: King vs King. Till then, enjoy the anime and remember to hug your bestie. Guild-Ace (Mmmm check plz ) 23:58, May 17, 2014 (UTC)
