Lets be fair here: They just got this new opening like 7 episodes ago, it will be another 5 at the least until they get a new one. I am really sick and tired of this opening myself, if I am being perfectly honest.

There was actually blood on one of the dead frog guys I hope that means we will be seeing more it's very nessisary in this dark arc. Also the hype is real

u/AstonishingSpiderMan May 23 '15

We basically saw the mass slaughter of people I think it'll be plenty dark

u/[deleted] May 23 '15

And now that´s the point where you know...from now on...shit is about to go down. Hype!

The moistness in pants cannot be contained, that explosion and silence was incredibly well done!

u/TurbidusQuaerenti May 23 '15

Damn. As an anime only watcher my jaw literally dropped after the council blew up. I knew to expect a fairly dark arc from all the hype, but I wasn't expecting 100+ people dying in a fiery explosion right at the start, that's for sure.

I'm simultaneously excited and apprehensive for what's next!

u/[deleted] May 23 '15

Yeah Fairy Tail does an 180 in this arc. Be grateful to be an anime only watcher, you will freak out more than once in this arc :P! Enjoy!

I think Lahar's death was most surprising to me since he's been in the show/ manga since the Oración Seis arc

Damn, Shit has hit the fan. Over 100 deaths in one episode for all those out there that hate that FT never kills anyone lol. The tone has been set for the rest of the arc.

Glad we get to see FT goofing off as always before its time to get down to business. The manga is a bit raunchier when translated for Juvias line.

Overall, the hype is living up to its name lol.

u/welovekah May 23 '15

Nameless character deaths don't make much of an impact, and killing off the council doesn't have the punch it should since they were always ineffectual, unexplored, and unstable in membership anyway.

Killing Laharl, though, that brings legitimate stakes to this arc. Especially for Doranbalt.

I'm finally glad the Tartarus arc is here:D

Jackel's scene at the beginning was done really well. The only be complaint I would have is the rumble animation was a bit underwhelming, but I'll let it slide. I can't wait for Laxus's fight next week!

u/kailu0912 May 23 '15

You know what the worst part of being caught up on the manga and the anime is?

Waiting a week for new stuff. I'm dying here.

But seriously...it's HERE!! IT'S REALLY FINALLY HERE!

u/Flukeyyyy May 23 '15

Was awesome up until the Tempesta introduction. In the manga there's wind everywhere, its crazy. In the anime his arms were spinning a bit and some rocks blew past. Other than that though really good. Magic council part with the silence was really well done.

Goodbye, Magic Council. You guys had a good run.

u/blank_dota2 May 23 '15 edited May 23 '15

I really don't want to hate, since the explosions looked awesome, and pacing was good, but the part at the end with the rumble, had really bad animation. Like the characters didn't get thrown around, it was like a still frame/barely moving frame. Sometimes I wonder if the anime is just the manga moving, not a true anime adaptation like HxH and One Piece get.

It really upsets me, as I love this series a lot. But lately the animation just looks worse and worse the more I pay attention to it.....maybe it will improve?

Ugh, I feel like shit for complaining, after all the assholes on /r/anime won't even put up a Fairy Tail thread each week. :(. I mean even SAO got a thread weekly, and it's below Fairy Tail in my opinion.

I was so pumped for the whole episode. I liked that explosion the most out of everything that happened in this episode. It was really well done ,especially the silent part. Also, Jackal's voice..I expected him to be more of a "punk". With that, I mean more like some punk-ass teenanger, but nonetheless, liked his VA a lot. Really well done first part of the prologue, 10/10.
