2) So Lucy could have used hear year wisely, looks like she went modeling and took a job as a reporter. Would be nice to see her train, get stronger, not get behind again compared to Natsu & co... HIRO WHY DO YOU KEEP DOING THIS xD She should be more then a fan service character :(
I'm pretty sure Lucy did use her year wisely. Being a reporter lets her get insights on things. She used her knowledge to do a certain extent. Sure Fairy Tail is usually rambunctious and about power and strength, but there are others who train there minds. Such as Levy, Lucy, and Hibiki. If they didn't have there knowledge, Hibiki wouldn't have been able to give Lucy Urano Metria. Or Levy to figure out what the celestial globe is or why the celestial spirits were acting the way they were. Or Lucy who wouldn't have been able to use her knowledge to figure out a way to find the other guild members to bring them back together again.
Lucy trained her mind to get knowledge and insights on the whereabouts of her guild mates. Sure we all want to see her get stronger BUT NOT EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING IS MEANT FOR THE ONE PERSON.
Y'all get my feel?
