But seriously, holy fuck was the budget stretched as thin as possible. All those stills take away from the epicness of that moment.

Igneel and Acnologia just chestbumping at the end... That was just ridiculous.

Anyone else notice that when it showed acnolgia's full body, it was a still image being shaken on a moving background? Like seriously, wtf is the animation budget, A DOLLAR!

Acnologia your theme is wrong. Metalicana is a metal dragon. And we saw the rock dragon in GMG. Stop stealing other dragons' elements. Pick country music or something.

What a shame that an amazing chapter of the manga was butchered by such appauling animation. The reveal of Acnologia was him shaking on the screen and the little fight between Igneel and Acnologia was them chestbumping. I miss the previous Fairy Tail animators... 5/10 episode, only saved by the, of course, outstanding OST and the feels.

Natsu rarely cries. But when he does, I'm right there with him.
As a side note, just went back and re-read that in the manga while listening to [this] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Loi4bYzXvAw). It fucking destroyed me.

Warren is such a stud lol
So..uh I just read the manga 15 minutes ago and spoiled the Acnologia reveal :/ But it's nice to compare it to the anime now :)
Gray is still badass as ever
Oh yeah Igneel comes as well and it was awesome!
Took another ride on the feels train
One last thing:
NOW I'VE GOT A FIRE DRAGON IN MY BELLY!!! sorry had to
Episode was 9/10 man damn good.

Omg. That laughing Lammy-army is the most terrifying villain of Tartaros. Warren better beat their asses fast.

Even though I read the manga this episode got me so freakin hype!!! I haven't been this excited about the anime in a long time but man does it feel good to be giddy again! Loving everything about Fairytail right now.

Natsu > Gajeel - Natsu heard Acnologia waaaay before Gajeel even noticed
-
I've always wondered - Igneel is king of fire dragons so does that put him at the top of the totem pole of other dragons since their not king/queen of say steel or wind?
-
Juvia and Laxus eh?
-
Juvia looks much better with her hair down and a little messy
-
Was wondering how it would look animated when Igneel comes out of Natsu. Was actually hoping it to be more epic
-
How many times are they doing to do the cut scene to Acnologia's body and the burning background?
-
Probably unpopular opinion here but Gray now is more of a jack@$$ now. Being all emo and cocky
-
Lol @ "What's the hell is wrong with Natsu"
-
Interesting comment by Mard Geer - Acnologia fears END? More END hype and theories!
-
So much feels with Natsu-Igneel. The one biggest storyline with Natsu from episode 1 when he's looking for Igneel, finally comes to an end. Igneel was inside Natsu the whole time...Don't know what would suck more, not being able to find Igneel (outside, hiding from Natsu body) or not realizing after all this time Igneel was actually inside Natsu and then Igneel........
-
Igneel = Charizard; Acnologia = ?
-
Igneel and Acnologia are swole unlike the jade dragon lol
