Fairy Tail Chapter 496 Discussion

I know this is kinda off topic, but I really hope Mashima hasn't forgotten about the whole Gray killing Frosch thing

Wow, there hasn't been that great of a chapter in a long time!!!! I wonder who is controlling the dead, I don't think its the illusion magic of the other guy. Everyone said they seemed to be dead and a puppetmaster is controlling them which seems that someone else can use this skill. Maybe August used some kind of control dead spell or Eileen used an enchantment to manipulate bodies/powers to fight for her kind of like the swords? Either way, finally a great chapter, 4/5. I can't wait to see Invel and the other Dragneel fight. On top of Eileen and August fight seriously. Also, I can't wait to see Gildarts wreck Acnologia (maybe... lol).



Are you guys sure those were Historia and not Spriggans resurrected from the dead?



@madao-sama



I am pretty sure this was addressed in the arc right after Tartaros. Where Natsu and co. ran to the battlefield to make sure Frosh didn't get merked by Gray. I thought it was chalked up to the fact that the outcome of the timeline was changed somehow (it was supposed to be around that time Fro died I think).

Trash continues to be trash. Serena still a complete disappointment. chapter still bunch of nakama power memes.



half spriggans will still be oneshotted and are jokes.



HOLY SHIT MASHIMA JUST FINISH THIS TRASHY ARC AND TRY TO MOVE ON TO A BETTER ONE.





1/5

Honestly...I don't know where you go after this.  I mean this is Zeref and Acnologia.  A conflict 400 years in the making.  After this...there's nothing left.  I mean, I know some people wanna see Ankhseram but to me that'd just be like Kaguya in Naruto (aka the worst final villain I've seen in recent Shounen).



IDK where but mashima already claimed this is nowhere near end lol.

come on people.. neinhart was the only spriggan who acted as a spriggan. gildarts, laxus, jellal, erza and kagura all went through an opponent cuz of him.



Neinhart was one of the worst. Those people were only troubled by him because they were already injured.



Jellal and Kagura weren't really injured. So is Gray, Lyon, Meredy & Juvia.



What does it change? Jellal curbstomped Neinhart. Kagura one-shotted Simon. Gray and Lyon were only held back emotionally otherwise they would've dealt with Ur easily. Laxus, Erza and Wendy were heavily injured from their previous fights. Meredy and Juvia is the only debatable case.



Neinhart is one of the weakest Spriggans. If you have a strong will and are in  (which most of the good guys in this manga do), you can deal with his Historia's pretty easily.



I was just correcting your statement on them being hurt. Either way, whether or not Neinhart is strong or weak is kinda subjective here. For starters, no one besides Erza overpower the Historia mentally. And Neinhart survived a direct attack from Jellal. Plus he conjured three Spriggan at the same time. His feat is still there as unimpressive as it stands.



Those three Spriggans were way weaker than their originals as mentioned by Gildarts ._.



He still conjured three Spriggans, besides even if God Serena is weaker, Natsu and the others still struggled against him.



Well either way, Neinhart is going to be beaten soon, so him being weak or strong is hardly relevant anymore.

It's gotten so bad even the manga itself is trying damage control.  By the way, if the Historias are established as being weaker, then what does that say about the Historias of vastly weaker people knocking around their opponents?



There was never a weak historia...? Some of them get you be surprise, like how it happened with Simon, and it takes you some time to think properly... it kinda has a psychological effect too.

come on people.. neinhart was the only spriggan who acted as a spriggan. gildarts, laxus, jellal, erza and kagura all went through an opponent cuz of him.

Why I have a bad feeling that something terrible will happen to Romeo...

@ixarising:



Fairy Heart is in Mavis. Who is in the guild hall. The rest of the guild is charging towards there, but at the moment nothing stops the spriggans from just launching everything they have against those guild members, as their sheer power is supposed to be far superior to FT's.
