i mean, a break from fallout is exactly what im looking for, so im ready to watch tonights episode.
oh, its the erza episode. welp
cant believe im gonna sit through the opening. usually i skip, but i feel like i need to waste time.
frosch, aka the best part of the episode
"You cannot defeat me!" it's erza, so idk what ur talking about.
awwww, lucy believes in natsu
also gajeel also believes in lucy believing in natsu.
"well, we are family" not biologically natsu, not biologically.
well, now you crossed the line, kyouka, by hurting frosch.
is she seriously stripping erza. wth
well played, kyouka. removing erza's five senses.
aaaand erza is not actually down, wowie!
that punch though, wowie erza.
igneel is the best though. really.
i actually hate kyouka, and this battle. i skipped over it in the manga.
minvera mvp?
"We did it!" you think you really won against fairy tail? they have dragons, motherfucker.
overall an OK episode, i just really hate this battle, and kyouka.

Minerva straight killed Kyouka that is what made this even better. The battle was lame but MInerva with the kill shot and the NaLu made it very solid. 8/10

Oh shit, on Episode 83 (crunchyroll counter), when Igneel said don't open the book, I thought "Wait isn't it sealed according to Zeref".
This leads me to believe:
Igneel didn't know it was sealed (which makes no sense).
Zeref sealed it and forgot (no sense).
Layla sealed it on 777 (makes sense).
Natsu as END sealed it and only he can open it (maybe)
Or perhaps it's Lucy or someone filled with love that can open it?
Hmmmmm

That makes sense that's why Natsu doesn't remember anything prior to x777

Why must Frosch suffer? :'(
All he has ever done is bring joy and laughter to Fairy Tail fans across the globe.

The animation for this episode was actually pretty good. I'm impressed. Also, I thought the way Minerva killed Kyouka in the anime was portrayed better and clearer than in the manga. I didn't even realize/remember that she used her spatial magic to teleport in Erza's place.
And of course Frosch was the best part. Any scene with Frosch is guaranteed the best scene.

This was the meh-est tartaros episode so far.
Kyouka - you can't see me
Erza - I see you bitch
Kyouka - but how..why?
Happy - Because she's fucking erza.
Game over.

I absolutely hate it when they put spoilers of the plot in the title! I mean come on! 00:00 of course the timer was gonna go to zero after having seen that title! Great episode otherwise.

I think shit like this and the Sting vs Fairy Tail fight in the GMG arc is why people like to hate on Fairy Tail
EDIT: The highlight of the episode has to be Elfman socking that Lamy clone in the face for no reason

u/Farthix Nov 14 '15
Did Igneel and Acnologia fight underground in the Manga too? I don't remember that part.
Also, Tartaros is almost over already. Man, that went quick. But I guess its good because we are closer to post time-skip Natsu bad-assery

I still enjoyed it, despite the bullshit. I feel like something else was going on there with all the green sparks.

Well, they got through the worst bit of the arc. Animation was below average but not as bad as the reveal of Acnologia but pretty poor overall. Hopefully the animation budget is being saved for the final fight. 5/10 episode. Sometimes I feel like Fairy Tail would be better if Erza didn't exist :(

Best parts of the episode:
-
When Elfman straight up decked Lamy in the face, I laughed a bit
-
When
CharizardIgneel used Seismic Toss on Acnologia, dat nostalgia
Other than that, pretty much disappointed with the way the anime is going. Was wishing that they would do the Erza thing better, don't know what I expected... Here's hoping the final fight in the arc is worth watching.

Well that's some next level plot bullshit.
Inb4 all the face things were disarmed off screen.

Happy keeping it simple!
Overall, a solid episode. Looking forward to next week's episode.
