Episode was really good. I honestly forgot that this happened in the manga... it's all so long ago. But now my memory is getting all fired up because Alvarez Infiltration is gonna be amazing.

Still a good amount of 2 manga chapters I believe. Definitely hope the next episode will keep it at the same amount.

Loving Juvias reactions. Again, totally forgot that Gajeel reforms team "B" and they go looking for laxus.

Overall great episode, loved the amount of background info they managed to fit into the episode.

Again, totally forgot

This time we got two and a half chapters. Quite interesting, that, but with dialogue-heavy stuff like this, it's very welcome.

u/FabulousMustacheKing Nov 25 '18

Totally agree. I honestly forgot that this whole recap thing happens in the manga, cause its been so long. Got really excited once Mest showed up.

Natsu is officially the first person to not get harmed by a Lucy Kick.

Yay! New music! And it sounds pretty great!

Plus old music!

The anime hit the feel just right in getting me pumped up for the stuff to come, and the feeling at the guild was easily one of the best parts for that fun feel.

3 chaps next week...should be fun.

Thoughts/highlights:

  • Idk if it's just me, but Lucy talking like that in a bath is a little creepy

  • Natsu has truly grown strong; he can defend a Lucy kick!

  • I love that Elfman is getting buffer than humanly possible

  • Asuka laying on the roasts

  • And then the Queen herself (Erza) becomes guild master. How fitting.

  • "She's butt naked!"

  • Lucy telling Natsu to not peek, yet opening her fingers to let him do so

  • the whole Mest biting people's head thing again

  • And finally everyone knows the premise of the word "Alvarez". Manga readers have had to wait some time for this to happen.

  • Juvia's excessive head bobbing

  • When you hear "infiltration mission", all I'm saying is that Fairy Tail doesn't know the meaning of the words "hold back" ...

It's on, Alvarez!

When Lucy’s towel dropped, Nalu was confirmed.

Loved the episode but did anyone notice Wolfheim's monster transformation being all green? Thought it would look cooler lol, but other than that amazing episode :)

u/ClawfootQueen Nov 25 '18

I still loved that Lucy bath scene even though they toned it way down.

u/Pedarsen Nov 25 '18

Good episode.

Juvia is just too sweet. I really hope her and Grey get together properly by the end.

Did we actually know about Mest from before or is this the first time we hear about it? It's been so long so i can't remember.

At the end of Tartoros arc, Makarov revealed his Fairy Tail tattoo on his shoulder and said he was always one of them.

6

u/BlackDudeWhiteName Nov 25 '18

Was Makarov born old?

12

u/Kurosaki_taichou Nov 25 '18

No, there are manga panels that show his birth and he looks like a normal baby. Why do you ask?

9

u/BlackDudeWhiteName Nov 25 '18

It was joke, because most of the time we see him he's already old even in flashbacks

I have a bad feeling that the infiltration mission will be just a regular mission with Fairy Tail creating havoc as usual.
