Fairy Tail Chapter 442 Discussion

why are people saying brandish is/will be the weakest before anythings even happened? it says shes a member of "the spriggan 12" not "is the 12th member" people also assuming its some kind of ranking system, why? also people already crying nakama power inc etc why do you even read/watch fairy tail if you clearly dont like how its written?



good chapter, waiting to see when they show team b finding laxus :D

Glad we're getting more pages next week!

I do find it interesting taht the alvarez empire greatest use titles of spriggans which is basically "evil fairies" that steal things and cause mischief. I wonder if the connection to the overall "fairy tail" is intentional in any way.





Either way standard chapter. Really annoyed that Lucy yet again got taken out of the way and Natsu most likely will oneshot those two next chapter or something.

Ugh, this arc is unfolding just like all the others. Hopes brutally murdered.



Step 1. Introduce powerful new threat

Step 2. Fairy Tail says "We'll fight them!!"

Step 3. Villains make their appearance acting cocky as hell boasting their enormous powers.

Step 4. Villains proceed to defeat Fairy Tail in fight (but everyone is ok enough to fight later).

Step 5. Fairy Tail comes back to fight, but now the differences in power are drastically lessened.

Step 6. Regular Fairy Tail fight ensues with slight back and forth until Fairy Tail pulls out a victory.

Step 7. Rinse and repeat.



I was really hoping this arc could move away from this mold, but this chapter denies such hopes... >.>



Indeed. This was the exact same thing with Oracion seis. First they met and got owned. Then FT beat em all one by one. At least we are already at Step 3.

For everything else besides the cliche delivery of the friendship theme.





Certain clarifications that need be said. Brandish is not definitely the weakest. The fact that she appeared first doesn't necessarily imply that.



Also, there are certain power classifications so far. 4 gods of ishgar> rest of 10 SW.  Laxus beat one of the SW remember? And I'm pretty sure that current Natsu is way stronger than that Laxus. So Natsu is most propable in the range of the 4 gods of Ishgar. So he at the very least has a chance to solo one of these guys. And if he has a chance , he will definitely win.

Intros to new arcs like this feels like the main characters are hitting the reset button. They are always so weak at intro arcs getting their ass beat.

They just HAVE to take Erza out of the equation with cheese magic so we can't truly see how strong she is. DAMMIT.

WEll this chapter pretty much covered all the necessary steps to trigger a full scale Natsu meltdown next chapter.

Was thinking the same, but it's either Natsu who blows up the island (can happen xD), or this Brandish chick.

yall are saying that natsu and gray should easily beat them but forgetting the fact that Brandish alone and the other spriggans' strength can match with God Serena (which was confirmed by one of the ishgar kings)
