Fuck I don't get you people, I mean it's freakin' shounen so yeah read something else. In this kind of manga you practically know what'll happen.
I'm sick of seeing this as a response to criticism's of Fairy Tail's boring fights. Yea the overall end result will be pretty consistent, but its the path taken there that is so important, and Fair Tail has one of the most predictable cliched paths ever.
The treatment of the villains is just... I think the proper word here is "lame". I mean Tartoros got like 3 chapters hype, and since then every fight has been Fairy Tail kicking their asses when they use their normal magic , the exact same shocked expression from the villain, then a counter with their powerful curse (like I'm sure will happen with Kyoka soon enough), then Fairy Tail finding a way around it anyways. Sometimes in mindbogginlgy stupid ways, like Natsu saying "I figured out your trick" to Jackal and subsequently ignoring all his curse attacks, without actually offering an explanation to how hes ignoring his attacks. He just says he does so he does. The only exception is Silver, but since he's future Gray he'll probably turn good or make some heroic sacrifice or something. Before their arc went to shit, at least Grimoire Heart managed to actually seem like a threat.
