Wow,people sure are pissed that there is no female among the four gods of ishagard. They say this is sexism.
Isn't it also sexist to have a female in four gods just for the sake of having one? A token female member? Plus,if mashima did one,people would then make jokes about the "fanservice god" or the "token god".
King Ace,they are the protagonists. This is a pointless rant and conversation. Plus,you are full of double standards. If you are gonna rant,do it right. Sting is the guildmaster of Sabertooth,yet he went to battle Tartarus. I imagine that someone like Levy will be left as a substitute. She is perfect for the job. To infiltrate Albarath would be a suicide mission. Erza wouldn't put her friends in such a risk,that's why she is going with them,and why only only team Natsu is going.
It would be too risky to bring more than 5. Natsu going can be chalked up to the fact that he would follow them regardless of Erza's will,even though it's quite predictable that he is going to blow their cover.
There is a reason why Erza,Natsu,Gray and Lucy are the manga's main protagonists and why Natsu and Lucy are the leads. It's because Mashima wants to. Things Zeref Dragneel,E.N.D,etc,are just "excuses" to justify it. If you disagree so much and think that Natsu is "stealing glory",simply don't read the manga. Either that or get used to it.
I'm saying that Hiro is showing favoritism. Team Natsu are not the only protagisy basically all of team tenrou are protagonists of you take off gildarts. How can you not call it favoritism when Hiro makes one of the few charcthers whi have to stay on the Homefront go to the battle field. Team Natsu are not the only protagonist and the only Main protagonist that can get favoritism is Natsu, so you can not say Hiro isn't showing favoritism. Why are you acting like Erza is in the right she as the guild master should stay behind when the guild is still being rebuilt and at its most vulnerable to be attacked and for the lumen historic to be stolen, and stop acting like Erza can do a better job of protecting them than other members like Mira. If Hiro wasn't showing favoritism he would make it so that Erza form a small team of about 7 to infiltrate the kingdom, which whould probably be Natsu(u can't stop him) Gray(he proved he can be a good spy) Gajeel(also proved he can be a good spy) warren(need that telepathic link up) Wendy (support and healing) Mest (he proved he is the mvp of spies) and Laxus (gajeel would get him and they need a calm mind and powerhouse. Instead of doing this Hiro showed favoritism and did the wrong thing. Now Fairy Tail is even more vulnerable and the lumen historie would be easy pickings. This is why Erza can't be a leader because she is front line material and can't see the big picture as well as listens to her heart first without thinking, she is more like a general not a king. I am basically saying that Hiro showing favoritism to team Natsu is making the manga a lot worse than it could have been, let them take the bleachers every once in a while, you can't have the same players in the game 24/7 with the only possible exception being the main protagonist Natsu but even he has to take a back seat every now and then,
No Team Natsu are the protagonists of this series, and Natsu & Lucy are the main characters. It's been like that from the first arc. Also it's common knowledge in shounen that the main character fights the boss. In Fairy Tail, Natsu fought only Jellal, Zero and F!Rogue (alone) and they are considered the main villains of those arcs. Because:
- Galluna Island Arc, main villain was Leon which wasn't take out by Natsu, and Deliora was dead thanks to Ur;
- Phantom Lord Arc, while Gajeel was the villain the biggest thread there was Jose, which even Erza struggled with him, and She's Erza xD, and Makarov took care of that;
- Tower of Heaven Arc & Oracion Seis Arc, Natsu went DF mode and won against those two;
- Edolas Arc, team effort Natsu, Gajeel and Wendy took care of that robotic Dragon;
- Tenrou Island Arc, main thread was Hades, again team effort Team Natsu + Laxus defeated him;
- Grande Magic Game Arc, Natsu won against F!Rogue, though he got helped by Atlas Flame... let's count it as Natsu on his own, whatever;
- Tartarus Arc, main thread was Mard Geer, final boss/villain how you wanna call him, Natsu & Gray fought him, and Gray delivered the final blow.
- Avatar Arc, Natsu defeats "God" of War (although it's more like a summoned beast, but whatever).
Well idk why I pointed those out. But role of the supporting characters (like it or not lol), is to support the main ones, that's their roles. It's like you're saying (this is just a example) why is Luffy the only one who takes care of the boss, in almost every arc??? Or Naruto, Ichigo. Only manga I saw where the main characters don't go to the boss battles (from the top of my head ofc, there could be others lol) is Hunter x Hunter.

Well, God Serena is definitively Yuriy
.
The ressemblance is kinda undeniable, I mean, look at the hair style (if we forget about the fancy upper stuff), the form of his eyes, his eyebrows, and the shade of grey used let think that he his blond haired. Plus, he's the only original FT member we've haven't seen yet in the main FT so far, and his connection to the actual team is pretty high. Last, he would have a reason to go to Arbaless: saving his son.
And listen to what Warrod said in this chapter, which means he knows what's going on... The other two Kings of Ishgar might not because it was decided between both FT former members. ;)
If that's yury then he has to have a medical heart like hades cuz that dude is older than gramps who's over 80 though he is technically younger than prechet.

Plus,after all he vowed in the last chapter of zero,it would be disappointing if he simply betrayed her like this.
Well,maybe something happened when Mavis sealed herself/killed herself and became Lumen Historie. After all,something must have happened to explain why Warrod left the guild,despite remaining loyal to it. Maybe he refused to accept Precht as his guild master? or maybe it was Mavis's fate? Or perhaps something happened to Yuriy?
Oh well. Honestly,this is just the arc's second chapter,a introductory chapter. They are not usually known for being epic or exhilarating.

I also hope they don't hype this up like they did the avatar arc only for avatar to be weak as shit and not even be able to summon a real God, they just summonsed a giant that can punch stuff and not even use magic. I'm starting to think giro wanted to make a whole big arc about them just for Gray's character development but the editors made him stop and waste a whole good arc and idea. If they do this with the comming arc I will personally fly to Japan break into their office punch them in the face then get Mashima Hiro's autograph.

So it appears like we have a rescue arc right around the corner. The original group + Mest looks to be fun. Of course, Gajeel with his surprise group takes the cake for this chapter, especially once they get Laxus. :O

We still don't know what happened in fairy tail zero's ending. Yuriy was never mentioned in fairy tail. Up until now,his only appearance was in Warrod's flashback. Mashima probably did this not to compromise himself like he did with Silver.
In one of tartarus's earliest chapters,there was talk of Silver's "demon form". It was never answered if only Mard and keith knew he was a corpse,or if everyone did. I imagine Mashima implied it was the former. Well,he did say there was a critical inconsistency in his Silver plot that forced him to do some adjustments.

Ah,I see. "Serena" is the name of a female in yugioh arc V. This is why some thought it would be a woman,right? It's also a female name in real life,apparently.
"From a Late Latin name which was derived from Latin serenus meaning "clear, tranquil, serene". This name was borne by an obscure early saint. Edmund Spenser also used it in his poem 'The Faerie Queene' (1590)."
FAIRY QUEENE,it could be meaningful. Also,if someone disappointed that he is a man,you have only have yourself to blame. It might be weird,but Serena can also be a male name in fiction.
