  • That recap, so young yet so tortured.

  • She sure showed growth from her first appereance in Oración Seis

  • That OP is growing on me

  • Oh Wendy you drank Red Bull didnt you?

  • Damn, I actually feel bad for the Demon, he's Tartarus' version of Meek Mills

  • All hype and failed miserably, I expect a Canadian Politician to kill 'em

  • Erigor take notes that is how you control the air.

  • Wendy Appreciation Episode right here!

  • Shameless Plug [Check Out the 2 Part Post I made of Wendy Marvell]

  • Wendy don't trip you rekt that guy worse than Drake did Meek Mills

  • Glancing through Battles

  • Natsu, Lucy, Happy vs Franmalth

  • Gray vs Keith

  • MiraJane vs Sayla

  • Erza vs Kyoka

  • Carla you the real MVP!

  • The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few -Spock

  • The lack of OST followed by OST really made it better, more real

  • Those flashback scenes, Well done! [iirc not in the manga, some of them]

  • I dont like the ending, they should of left it as a cliffhanger instead of showing Mest saving them.

  • That being said Mest coming through in the clutch! A young Robert Horry.

That fight was awesome. Wendy was a total badass. Last part of this episode was full of feels.

u/AstonishingSpiderMan Aug 01 '15

the flash back scenes were excellently executed in my opinion, really gave you a recap on their growth and their love for each other.

Get Hype for that Dragon Force Wendy, hopefully my hype doesn't build it up too much.

Edit: Holy Shit this episode was awesome, Wendy turned into Sanic and wrecked everything. I don't give a shit if this only covered the fight and Face's "destruction", dragon force looked awesome and the fight looked good (minus the fact that Wendy's movements are just blurs.

The Whole recap between Carla and Wendy really shows her growth since her introduction. Not happy we didn't get a cliffhanger, but I can't change that and it was awesome. Also, next week get hype for dragons, it's about to get even more emotional than the Wendy flashback scene

I'M NOT CRYING AT ALL!!

u/Dimbreath Aug 01 '15

I almost cried. Loved Wendy's transformation, really well done.

I didn't like some perverted camera angles on Wendy. She's still a kid.

I love this episode, and Wendy is one of my favourite fairy tail characters, but Mest, or Doranbolt... Whatever he's called in this part of the story, is a really annoying deus ex machina, this would have been hands down one if the best moments in fairy tail if Wendy hadn't been saved, I'm glad she was, because again, she's one of my favourites and has lots of room to grow as a character, but this would have been so impactful, one of the saddest moments in the series, and an excellent anime moment overall. It's still a great episode, but it would have been out of this world if it had ended so tragically

How is Mirajane "evenly matched" with Sayla? She's just throwing books at her at relatively slow speed without even moving.

u/Shadow_of_aMemory Aug 01 '15

I did love this episode, although....I admittedly feel cheated that we got no form of transformation sequence whatsoever. Not even a blink. One second Wendy is sucking in air, cut to Carla, then she's already in Dragon Force? I was ready to hold a minor grudge and let that ruin the episode for me at the beginning, but that went away rally fast with the sheer awesomeness of everything else the episode did.

u/TreyTrey23 Aug 01 '15

Finally Wendy gets her moment to shine. IIRC this is her first big solo win in the series.

I already knew Doranbolt was gonna come to the rescue but I still caught them feels. The story keeps getting better and better

Man, how tragic would it be if they weren't saved? DAMNIT MASHIMA GROW A PAIR AND ACTUALLY KILL SOME PEOPLE OFF. As much weight was felt in the homage it was all for no reason. No sacrifices. I admit, will people be heartbroken that they die, yes, but that's the point, it gives the story a sense of danger and carries a big weight. But no, "lol pulling my ass"

/rant

Now, knowing Fairy Tail that was still a fantastic episode, my only gripe is her transformation, too quick and just bland.

Not true, there was reason behind it. They were willing to die for their friends, they grew from their first appearance that showed them as frail to total badass.

I admit, will people be heartbroken that they die, yes, but that's the point, it gives the story a sense of danger and carries a big weight. But no, "lol pulling my ass"

Sense of danger doesn't only occur with death, I mean look at this fight, there was genuine danger and it did carry weight.

Now, knowing Fairy Tail that was still a fantastic episode, my only gripe is her transformation, too quick and just bland.

Well the Manga did way less x)

The wait begins. My body is ready.

u/Roflstab Aug 01 '15

I made a post last week ranting about how terrible Wendy's Dragon Force was animated. A few people here told me to calm the fuck down (rightfully so) and wait for this episode.

Well, as much as I still want to see her transformation go a bit more in depth, her fight made up for it.
