No even anticipating anything special when it comes to Gray and Natsu, they'll just brawl and suddenly friendship happens, we get some speech about the guild or whatever and they make up, somehow Natsu will magically survive, even if Zeref dies and I don't even know why... Why is it so hard to kill of main characters for them? It's not like I want them to die, though Juvia has been nothing else but "Gray sama, Juvia loves Gray sama!" while literally in no way benefiting the story, but still, if you decide to kill off someone, let them actually die, that way you don't betray your fans. Or is that really the only way they can bring any kind of compelling, emotional storytelling?
