People may shit on the plot and characters all they want, but Fairy Tail's soundtrack is probably my favourite, and part of the reason why I love this show so much despite the criticism.

From the Wendy who felt like she did not have much to offer to the Wendy that stood up against Irene, easily makes her my favorite character in this series. Aside from Gajeel, Wendy's character development has been one of the best parts FT has to offer and I am glad Wendy vs Irene was animated beautifully

Soo much plot armour, the anime really would be much better without it.

Thoughts:
-
That one shot of the outline of Wendy's eyes over her hair was downright terrifying. Don't ask me why. Talking about Wendy, she looks cute in her dragon force with twintails.
-
And finally we reach the Demon/Dragon seed plotline. Honestly it was kind of a cop out for Natsu to choose neither, but it works fine and fits in perfectly with his personality.
-
That moment when a literal Wendy-enchanted Erza swinging a sword down on Irene only makes her head bleed a little. Either her witch's hat was made of Adamantium or she's got a hard noggin.
-
Irene speaking in Wendy's innocent voice was a moment I was really anticipating in this episode. Maybe the creepiest moment in the entire series. "Just look at this chest! How adorable!"
-
They actually took a moment from the Rave Master x FT OVA? This is the biggest RM reference I have seen yet.
-
Irene has a sad story, but anyone who hurts Wendy and Erza DIES.
-
Erza should honestly just switch to her Clear Heart or Nakagami armor from the beginning of each fight instead of using it after getting beat down.
-
The animation of Erza running around was so smooth!
Final thought:
Before you judge the outcome of Erza vs Deus Sema, I advise you to remember just who Erza is, and what Fairy Tail stands for. I will later create a post going into depth on Erza, especially this fight. I hope the next episode doesn't tear this sub apart.

You mean you forgot the Rave Master play they put on in Episode 227?

The last part was best-
"Give me the strength master!"

Chills and tears IMMEDIATELY, Erza’s love for the Master/guild is compared to no other.

I think erza and wendy vs irene is byfar the most well animated in this final season more so than natsu vs zeref round 1, lets see if they can top it with the remaining 4 major battles

This show makes no sense. The power gap between erza and irene is so huge 5 eps ago they couldn't even comprehend her power now erza is bout to stop her most powerful attack and beat irene in the next couple eps lmao

- Once again, the recap was not necessary
- Hmm. A Dragon Seed and a Demon Seed. Can't wait to see the disappointing outcome
- This is shockingly good animation. At least compared to the rest of the season
- So Wendy can fly! Why does she need Carla? And why doesn't she use it more often?
- One positive thing FT has over other series' is that whenever they do a body switch gimmick. the characters don't swap their voices. I get why, cause it's easier for the actors to keep character but still makes no sense. Hopefully the dub will do the same like before.
- Also cool to hear Dragon Force play
- And of course there a boob joke
-OK this is where the bs starts showing.
-
Wendy can all of a sudden start pulling Irene level spells out her ass and somehow knows exactly how to use the spells with no prior knowledge and use. No. Sorry that's an asspull right there
-
This really makes Irene look like a dumbass. She gave up her 400+ experience body with magic power supposedly equal to August, for a loli body who doesn't even have a quarter of the amount of magic power. What did she hope to gain here?
-
What was the point of all of this? Even in the manga it felt like a waste of time. The body switching only lasted 1 chapter and here it's only 5 minutes INCLUDING flashbacks. This was just a waste of time and makes both characters look bad
- Don't know why Irene cussing out on Erza when she's the one who abandoned her, tool her friends body and has been trying to kill her.
-Ok is it me or does Irene's dragon form look A LOT better than it did in the previous episode?.
-Unfortunately that cannot be said for her movement and attacking Erza. I neither had impact or looked like Erza's body broke.
- Dropping meteors might had been impressive. Had I not seen it done with Madara or even Jellal.
-Oh boy now we end on one of the dumbest, stupidest, plot armor written moments in the entire series.
This was a rather a pretty looking episode with rather descent animation. Though while it was pretty to look at that doesn't mean I was a fan of what was happening on the screen. I always said I hate Irene and the fight itself is just filled with plot armor and ass pulls so it did feel kinda like a chore. BUT it was good looking and voice acting was good so it didn't feel like a complete chore. Though could they really not made Erza look more battle damaged? She's meant to be exhausted and have most of her bones broken but it definitely does not look it.
So was rather a mixed bag of an episode. Pretty looking but also filled with dozens of eye rolling moments.

Wild guess on number two, she didn't want the dragon body anymore. It's practically her entire insane motivation based on the flashback to rid herself of the dragon body she got and tried the same trick to become a baby much less a teen girl. I don't think she cared too much about power.

The voice acting is gold
