You know you're a bad author when you literally destroy what awesome you had for less than a FULL CHAPTER in a single page. I know, I bash on Hiro so often, it's started to get sad, but come on people! There's a point where you go from being able to redeem yourself to...THIS.

First rule of building suspense and a reason for the fans to keep reading: DON'T ASSPULL THE SOLUTION RIGHT OUT THE GATE! LET THE FEAR AND WONDER FESTER IN THE HEARTS OF READERS AND CHARACTERS ALIKE. [When the most powerful member of the most powerful race decides to show up, don't midigate it with bullshit]

Second Rule: Show us how absolutely deserving of the title the freaking terror can be. Causing sonic booms just by flying? Nice, but let it actually wreak some serious damage. Make the world burn under his gaze, prove to us that he's such a big deal. Both times Hiro actually showed the beast, he's been fucked over by asspulls. Mavis having a spell that competely bocks his wrath? Igneel being born from his son's navel? COME ON!

Wake me up when Igneel's head is cut from his neck and splats Mard in the most anti-climactic kill in manga history. I want SOMEBODY on the heroes team to actually die by the end of the series...I don't care if fucking HAPPY is the target...although Natsu would be my prefered target.
