Deja Vu
Having read Rave Master so many times already, I can definitely draw the parallel comparisons between Lucy and Nami from One Piece Ellie. I do believe that Lucy though shunned for quite a bit like Ellie had been until the end, she is finally stepping into the spotlight for something major. And it's about time, too.
While Fairy Tail members are protected by PLOT ARMOR, they are protected from death and not departure. Mystogan for instance left permanently though he did not die and we never saw him again (at least the original Edolas version. Yes I know he came back as Jellal). So who knows if Aquarius will do the same?
BUT Aquarius is one of the twelve golden zodiac keys, and if most of us aren't mistaken and if my nose for the shonen genre's usual formula is right, she HAS to collect the twelve keys all at once probably for something major to happen towards the end. So... I guess we'll be in for ANOTHER Deus Ex Mashima (lol) Machina. Either her key is fixed or something will happen so that the key is probably returned or never happened. I mean come on, Hiro Mashima used TIME TRAVEL to bring back dead characters so we can't expect anything less for reuniting Lucy and Aquarius, even if that destroys the point of sacrifice in the end.
Major bitching aside That being said, this was one of the BEST recent chapters in memory of Fairy Tail, which serves to show that Hiro Mashima is still a genius at emotionals, and in my personal opinion could definitely rival Eiichiro Oda.
Plus her summoning three celestial spirits and then the strongest one who has a kickass mustache makes her finally able to join the ranks of OP'ed characters, something I've long waited for.
Damn, even if this week's chapter is exceptionally long, I want MOAR. ARGH, the WAIT IS KILLING ME. AARGH.
