Fairy Tail Chapter 311 Discussion

what if the hooded girl is actually princess Hisui's mother? The princess is similar to Lucy, and she doesn't have the willpower to be the mastermind as we saw it. We also have no information bout the queen whatsoever, and we saw a statue of a woman.

Personally, I think it would be more likely if it were the Princess herself (from the future).  Even if you were right, I'm not sure why her mother would cry for Natsu/Fairy Tail.  I want to believe it's someone with strong bonds to them, preferably a main guild member.

Next chapters title made me giggle.

Mavis was so adorable when she started to cry about her miscalculations.

Erza vs Kagura vs Minerva....dreams really do come true. Though...for some reason I feel like Laxus will have a 3 way fight too, with both Orga and Jura, not entirely sure. I'm just glad that we'll at the very least see Minerva get hit, hopefully across the face.



One last note: Minerva's lipstick is the weirdest thing ever, sometimes it's there...other times it isn't.

Ok, first of all we all agree this is one of the best chapters so far...Out of a boom Mashima surprised us yet again and put everything we actually wanted to see in 1 chapter, thus speeding the flow of the story immensely...we have the revelation of the hooded girl in front of Natsu inc. :

My best guess considering everything would be something (I think) no one mentioned till now:

what if the hooded girl is actually princess Hisui's mother? The princess is similar to Lucy, and she doesn't have the willpower to be the mastermind as we saw it. We also have no information bout the queen whatsoever, and we saw a statue of a woman.



Also, we have a threesome between Minerva, Kagura and Erza:

While this is the most difficult thing to predict, I think this is what's gonna happen...

Jellal will interfere somewhere in the fight and drag Kagura out of it, because I don't see her losing and I don't see either Erza losing. Minerva is the sure one to go down. Or Kagura will withdraw by her own will, thinking about the fact why FT has been hiding Jellal. I am also interested whether there will be a conversation about it, though I think Kagura won't initiate it.



I know I'm underestimating Minerva, much more now that she's made such an entrance, but I think there's too little information about her motivation, so she's a highly unpredictable character, and we don't know her limits yet. Maybe she's aiming at manipulating the situation and getting rid of all of three of them, while she put the 'leader' mark on Sting's feelings, therefore removing 2 large obstacles in the way of ST's victory...that would seem a nice strategy, though I doubt it.

Ahh, this chapter is heaven.



(Also, cute Mavis. Cute.)



EDIT: Forgot about Juvia. While Mavis was a douche to tell it was only to buy time, I think Juvia vs. Shelia is actually a great choice, and I thought about it already. Shelia is strong as hell, yet we can't pair her really up with the remaining big-shots. This is a great opportunity for Juvia to get her screen-time finally, though someone in FT mentioned it's nearly impossible to defeat Shelia since she can heal herself. Well, I'm interested in what Juvia can show us :)

7 years agon Gray did overpower Ultear as she realised her time arc magic didn't work against frozen blood. But now Ultear has 7 years more experience and a much improved time arc magic. I would put Ultear among the top 5 strongest female mages. We barely know anything about Minerva's magic, Kagura hasn't drawn her sword yet, we know pretty much everything about Erza's skills and magic. And Ultear we only know she has the time arc magic and ice make magic. It is difficult to tell who's stronger unless they all fight against each other one-on-one or free for all. On paper Erza's and Kagura's swordsmanship is probably on par now. Minerva seems to be able to appear out of thin air. Ultear has probably the best ability out of the four but I think she would struggle against the other 3 on hand-to-hand/close range fighting. Obviously Erza and Kagura would have the advantage there.

But that's my view on things at the moment.



Wrong. The moment she realized time arc didn't work, she switched to her core magic which was Ice Molding magic and in that she was overpowering Gray.

Yes then end, at last the fight I've been waiting to see for a long time.



Kagura is going to kick some ass, I also hope the name "Jellal" is brought in this fight somehow, and Kagura just goes ape shit on Erza.

It's so funny how Mavis's prediction was wrong when mine was right!!

I was either saying Erza vs Kagura or Minerva but hey got both....Erza kick ass!!

Especially the bitch Minerva ....

Hooded person who are you?

Predictions:

Now I guess it's Yukino's sister now show yourself!!!

Or Lucy just like Rave Master

My predictions for the fights is that, mermaid heel will be wiped out. Millianna will probably join in to the Erza vs Kagura vs Minerva fight if she isn't the leader herself. The likelihood is that Kagura is the leader of Mermaid Heel but we don't know what Millianna's strengths are, just that it isn't fighting power. There's a high chance that all three/four women will take each other out. The way I see it both Erza and Minerva have a 9% chance of both surviving this battle with Minerva more likely to escape the fight and Erza with a 20% of surviving while Kagura has a 1% chance if they all battle until the end. There is also a 5% chance that the battle will be disrupted but I don't think that will happen personally.



You can take my statistics with a pinch of salt.



I don't think either Erza or Minerva are leaders. It is now most likely Sting and Laxus are leaders of Sabretooth and FT respectively since Minerva showed herself in battle.



For the battle between Juvia vs Shelia, Gray and Lyon will most likely join this battle and take it other out as Gray is already injured and Lyon will be hesitant to hit Juvia. Someone from Sabretooth might take this chance to take out the remaining fighters from FT and Lamia Scale from this fight.

Gajeel will face Rogue in a one-on-one battle which Gajeel will win. Laxus will face Orga where Laxus will probably win.



The last two fights will be Laxus vs Jura which should be an epic battle where Laxus will come out on top but injured. And the final fight will be Sting and possibly Minerva (if she survives, this event is quite likely) vs Laxus and Gajeel and possibly Erza (in the unlikelihood she survives)



The hooded woman is someone connected to Zeref, perhaps even a changed Zeref. My guess is she's some kind of priestess or something.



After all these calculations, before the last fight FT and Sabretooth's points will be quite close with a 1-3 (or possibly 4) points between them. This last fight is probably the only fight that will be disrupted because of outside interference. And that ends my predictions which have been 75-80% accurate so far as Hiro Mashima is sometimes quite predictable. But I love FT and Mashima when he makes it unpredictable at least to me like when Laxus fought against the whole of the Raven Tail team except that it was expected that Raven Tail would somehow get disqualified. And I had expected Sting and Rogue to be much more stronger because of their boasting. They were probably only as strong as or a bit more stronger that Natsu was when he faced Jellal 7 years ago at the tower of heaven. I look forward to the next chapters and I will patiently await the rest of the hopefully epic fights! ^_^
