I got Volume 52 of the manga recently and these are quotes from Mashima's afterword at the end of the book.
"Maybe this will even lead to the final battle with Zeref"
"The enemy boss charcaters are also the 12 strongest characters in the history of this series"
there's also a bit of talk about how 12 spriggan was too many but "there's a bit of a secret reason for it, so we finally decided on leaving it at 12"
So under these quotes I assume that this is our final arc afterall menaing that these are our final "boss" characters and if so then i want to know why is Mashima rushing them so much, if these are our final battles they should be more than just 1 or 2 chapters per fight.
hopefully whatever the secret reason is for having 12 will be good.
Volume 52 ends with chapter 446 and the preview for volume 53 says "Ragnarok the final battle begins" which would be teh current battle that we're all reading right now.
So yeah now with Acnologia even showing up, this is probably fairy tail's final arc.
well i wouldn't say its the last tho... "ANKSEHRAM" remember the god who curse zeref.. (IMO) and who knows if this will also be final between acnologia..
and also zeref is like madara in naruto whom almost everyone thinks hes the final boss to face but it turns out that hes just a fluke..
Tbh, Acnologia resembles Madara more.
-Both have same hairstyle
-Both are terrifyingly powerful
-Both want a good fight
-Both are/were (respectively) considered by many to be the final villain
Except Acnologia doesn't want to fight at all. He simply wants to destroy Zeref and Natsu and fly away. He's a recluse and doesn't like to be bothered with. He stays as far away from humanity as he can
