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).

Well it would help if Mashima didn't setup the defeat of 1/4 of the Spriggan 12 so early. In this chapter we already know the Historia aren't at their original strength, and Neinhart said it has a toll on his body when conjuring those three. So we're left with 8, 7 if we discount Brandish.



Let's see :



1) 3 Historias are pathetically weak - 9/12



2) Neinhart, Jacob and Ajeel are jokes and will probably get trolled - 6/12



3) Brandish might defect and nakamize Dimaria - so 4/12 or 5/12



This is just plain bad -_-



The nakamization of Dimaria is inevitable. Hiro logic is Boobs=redemption. I expect Irene will defect too because she's Erza's mother. Despite her being the only spriggan who hasn't in one way or another been shown to be a noob in some way. Even August was when his laser was mostly negated by Natsu and when he was impaled by Brandish's size manipulation magic(if he was any good he should have been able to react to the attack and vaporize it, or simply had too much magical energy in his body to be pierced by a random attack).



And as usual spriggans are using no strategy. Why don't they bombard FT with spells from casters like August from a distance? Irene did a country level spell, so August should be able to deliver multiple nuke level blasts easily and fodderize FT.

Hiro planned for 6 spriggans if I remember correctly, it was in a afterwards in a volume.

The thing withe the historias, that would be very obvious since he 'creates' them, so if he wanted to 'create' someone strong, he should've brought back only one, since he already has 3 and possibly others, so that consumes his magic. They are very underwhelming foes to say the least.



Dude stop spreading this bullshit rumor before people latch on to it again. Again "THE EDITOR ASKED FOR 6 SPRIGGANS" . Hiro insisted on 12, it´s Hiros fault not the Editors. I linked the Volume Page in a different discussion.



Damage controll won´t safe this atrocity of an Arc.



Chill that was my bad. Seen some said it, didn't bother to check the source, so my bad.

@ixarising:Nah, the soldiers are fodder. If the spriggans were to coordinate their powers that would do a lot more damage.



Well there's still the threat of Acnologia around, weakening the all Spriggan early wouldn't be a smart move. At least August and Larcade should be kept in top condition in preparation of that scenario happening.

wow,does it mean giladrts have know about god serena power.damn cana was right where did the cave you hide?all about you is darker than that cave

@ixarising:Eh, i still get the impression they could quickly fodderize FT without using too much mana with Irene being country-level and weaker than August, but it doesn't matter as Hiro hasn't thought this far.

I usually disagree with what you say usually but this time I wholeheartedly agree. This chapter was just hilarious. Hilarious in the bad sense although I guess I gave it a 2.5 because of some funny moments. If I excluded that, it would've been a 2.
