User blog:DazzlingEmerald/The Hype is Real

So, I needed someway to express the sudden rush of energy coursing through my veins at the moment, and I thought I'd make a blog!

'''WARNING: This blog is written by a user who is quite fond of the "Fairytail" series. If you are expecting a lambasted review on how unskillful Mashima is, then you have come to the wrong place! Viewer discretion is advised, and please proceed with caution.'''

This will be a rather brief blog, since I'm probably going to need to take several breaks to scream into a pillow while I'm writing it-- yes, I am really that excited by all of this. For starters, we are finally introduced to the Four Gods of Ishgar, and now apparently, "God" Serena, who occupies the first seat of the Ten Wizard Saints, has joined the Albareth Empire as one of the Twelve Shields of Sprigan. This means that the members of Fairytail will be facing off against opponents at the Saint level.

I can tell we're in for a pretty long arc here, and the thought that this may somehow end up being the final arc doesn't come as a surprise. In terms of raw power, I don't really see how it can get much farther than all of this; the Saints themselves are said to be the strongest mages in all of the world --or maybe they technically aren't-- and were always mostly hidden for majority of the series, as if to build up to the current day. To think someone could actually stand up to these guys, wow!

Anyway, as far as predictions go, we're led to believe the Fairytail B team is rebuilding, with Gajeel personally setting his sights on "that lightning bastard" (who better have himself an Exeed and a seat within the Ten Saints). Assuming Emperor Sprigan himself can fight, that would leave about 13 confirmed villains for this arc, though I imagine most of the Shields will be so powerful that Fairytail will likely need to put up more than one mage against them.

As far as I can tell, we're in for a roller coaster here. I didn't accomplish much with this blog, but I do hope you enjoyed. Leave in anything you found interesting about the chapter in the comments section below, and lets try to start a decent conversation in regards to the manga here for once! :D
