Mashima doesn't kill too often. That's enough to base off.
Mashima doesn't kill KEY CHARACTERS too often. He kills Extras plenty. So no your excuse is fulllll of holes and already sinking your batttleship to the bottom of the ocean. It wasn't even a battleship. It was a dinghy.

ah, Dimaria, I thought you might be kind of cool before you started tearing clothes off women. Now you're just annoying.
Still, looking forward to seeing some of the battles.
Ok so one problem i have with this is that it has been explicitly stated that Dimaria is a very seasoned war veteran. She knows what shes doing. I don't think she does this just to get a rise out of it. I think she does it to degrade the opponent and embarrass them i.e. lowering their guard and making them an easier target. Dimaria does this for a reason.
Or maybe she's just teasing them and doesn't really want to take this war that serious, it's not like the Spriggans are supposed to be monsters/demons ready to tear apart everyone in their sight in fact some of them don't look that hungry to fight at all, like August,Brandish,Invel,Nineheart and Dimaria.
That just reeks of too much convenience. Either way she's either too cocky or too apathetic/reluctant to actually be a credible threat. At this point if the Sky sisters do beat her on their own I'd say she deserves it.
Plus we got the situation with Laxus (though to be fair, I do like how he's showing some consequence from previous actions that aren't immediately dealt with. I feel a lot of ire against the Avatar Arc would be alleviated if Gray had to constantly take medication from Poryluscia to hold off the corruption), which basically tells me that Laxus is still so far above everyone in the arc that he needs a health condition to give a sense of tension rather than just giving him an opponent on his level. May as well've sent him to fight Serena instead of Acnologia.

^^Cuz it consumes a lot of magic? The spam arguement doesn't really work, there always limitations that exist for the sake of sensibility and balance that the author doesn't need to explicitly state every single time. Besides, Wahl could have thought "the first one had the elemtn of surprise and didn't work so now that they know how my attack works the 2nd shot has an even less rate of success". I know I would if I was in his shoes
See I think here is a problem with a lot of the complaints, and not just for FT, other series too, the author in some instence doesn't need to 'throw' everything at you. I think their intention is also to make you imagine how some things work etc. As you said, it makes sense that a cannon like that should consume a let's say big portion of magic.

I don't think Zeref is evil he is probably doing all this just to kill acnologia for some reason. I think it was mentioned a few chapters earlier that he helped open that gate to try and defeat acnologia. Idk why acnologia is such big a threat though. He would have been a threat if dragons were alive but now that the dragons are all dead they should just leave him alone because he has no interest in humans. Moreover the only person he killed was serena. He let the other humans live.
