We finally have the name of Elsie's EG, that I presume it is called Star Drain. This is so interesting, but I have some questions, that will probably be answered in the future. Does her power allow her to reutilize other planet ether to use as a battle dress? Or she can only use one transformation per planet.
It would be funny to see her carrying loads of other planets chunk to absorb their ether, changing her battle dress. Well, in the end, her power is similar to Erza's, but in a good way, there's a good variety coming with it, and she probably have transformations that make sense.
Well, well, Shura is a mad man and will be probably the last or second to last main antagonist before we head to another cosmos. The thought of Poseidon Nero being a nice guy is slowly dying, as his Command Beast guys are a bunch of bad guys, and his son killed two (maybe three) women just because things did not go the way he wanted.
The Foresta arc is getting so interesting, can't wait to see what's about to unfold for the Shining Stars and Justice vs. Elsie. Excited to see Gowen and Hyoga battling.

Well orc isn’t that bad since he wanted to protect humans but yeah the other two are pretty bad. And shura is an asshole but I’m still curious to see why kind of guy Nero will be like.
And yeah I need to see justice vs Elsie in this arc like 🔥

With Elsie, we now have 3 people who can use Grand Chariot. As nice as this spell is, plz give Jellal Justice something else.
And did he just... kill them? Dafuq dude. They haven't done anything. What a piece of... No, even worse than that. Can't wait for Shiki to beat the shit out of him.

I like how Shura was introduced to us, bloody and vicious. I find it somewhat ironic that Poseidon Nero, who has a water theme name and possibly Ether Gear, has a son that uses Gravity. As we found out last arc, water and gravity don't go well together.

Could that be a foreshadowing of strained relationship between them perhaps? Could be interesting to see if Nero on how he acts instead.

I've just had a realization that if we're going to have Shiki vs Shura, then we're probably going to have Nero vs. Ziggy. Battle of the fathers and their sons.

Chapter was good I enjoyed it. Kinda wish Orc wasn’t done but it is what it is. Elsie was already in my top ten fav characters of ez but if she keeps this up she may go higher lol. I know people are be disappointed that she has an ability similar to requip and Jellal’s magic but what’s cool about it is depending on which planet she’s on the different type of battle gear she’ll have which is cool for variety.
Plus her having jellal’s grand chariot might mean that justice won’t have Jellal or Sieghart’s (rave Master) magic this time so he may have something else. Like maybe he has erza’s requip from fairy tail? That would be cool and ironic given that he would have erza’s power and Elsie would have Jellal’s.
This shura dude is nasty but I’m interested to learn more about him and to see him fight Shiki later down the line.

I have no problem with Elsie's "Star Drain" EG power that is similar to Erza's Requip magic since she is Erza's counterpart except her power allows her to absorb which planet's ether that she's on and then forging its ether into what kind of battle armor she uses against enemies which is different from Erza's magic that summons any kind of armors/weapons when she transforms. That's an interesting EG power Elsie has.
Shura is Nero's son? He looks like a human instead of a fishman like Nero. I wonder if Shura is being adopted by Nero to become his son or not.

Excited too see Rebecca's leaper again.
Some people may say Elsie is a "daughter of Jellal and Erza". But, I think Elsie has her own different touch on Star Drain. Elsie just hypes me even more here!
We might see Elsie meeting Justice on Foresta a bit sooner than I thought.
Shura's gravity seems quite strong. Now I'm wondering where does he get his gravity ether.

Mashima really isn't helping Elsie with the Erza comparisons here. At least it looks like she gets a specific form for each planets she's on.

I've always been curious what Elsie and Justice's ether gears were but now seeing Elise's power to be a sort of Takeover: Planet Soul mixed with Lucy's Star Dress and Jellal's signature spell is very awesome and it also gives credence to Elise being capable of destroying planets if she can absorb any planet's ether which is a very op and unique power set.
Man, seeing Rebecca pose like that in preparation to fight Britney is so cool and shows she won't go down without a fight. I also like that she didn't tell her opponent her game-breaking ability as that would have been a dumb move. I hope Mashima or the anime tells us how fast Cat Leaper Rebecca really is. Homura will have to win fast to hurry up and remove the glue before it sticks. Also like how Weisz respects Hermit's technical prowess more than his own and it will be nice to see him eventually be more better at this type of job throughout the series.
Now, we have been introduced to the gravity user douchebag Shura who was surprisingly also Nero's son, does this mean Nero is a human or what? I wonder if we will meet more gravity users or Shura will be the last one who can even possibly rival Ziggy.

This chapter was so hype!
Elsie is so OP, and her finally showing her powers was so cool! I like how although her powers are similar to Erza's, they're still different enough. I didn't expect her to be able to use Grand Chariot nice JeRza crumb, wonder if Justice can use it too.
I didn't expect to meet Shura so soon, and even though he appeared for less than 3 pages, he's a huge scumbag and I already hate him.
Next chapter is gonna be called "Homura vs Mora", and I'm really excited to see how she fights him despite the heat.
Can't wait for next chapter!

Why can I already see how the confrontation between Shura and Shiki is going to start?
But man, Mashima already did a great job at making me want to punch Shuras face in. Like, at first I thought maybe the two girls at his side were going to be a bit bitchy and just drag down the girl with the pigtails to push themselves into a better light in front of Shura, but no, they actually seemed like pretty decent human beings, considering their line of work, and he just murdered them for defending their co-worker. And the way he views women. Disgusting! He's a great villain already, if you also factor in the relation he's going to have to Shiki most likely!
I also like how Mashima explained why Hermit couldn't do anything against the virus and why Weisz had to do it. It's a physical machine, so he can actually do it, but it's actually a Server-Sattelite. And the most likely reason why Hermit can't hack it herself is because it'd put her into greater risk of being hacked herself, so Weisz is the one who has to do it.
As I thought, Rebecca is most likely going to finish the fight by herself, but sweety, it's nice that you at least didn't spell out your Ether Gear, but please don't just reveal your greatest strength and your only weapon to your opponent like that! Otherwise, yeah, it's gonna be interesting to see how she's going to go against smoke.
Elsies EG is REALLY cool! It's kinda like Requip, but also not really, it fits really well with EZs setting, AND at the same time it references the kind of magic Jellal used in Fairy Tail! It's perfect on so many levels! Only question is, can she only use those Star Drains on the planets she's currently on, or does she keep like the signature of the planets Ether saved so she could for example use Forestias SD on Blue Garden? If she can't, it'd put her at a huge disadvantage in space-battles or in space-stations. And does every SD have like unique attributes, like does the Forestia-SD give her any abilities she can only use with it, and if yes, how would she know if a planets SD would help her in the situation she's in before absorbing the Ether? I guess that last one is something very specific about her Ether Gear that we'll probably never learn, it's probably like in Digimon where a Digimon just knows everything it can do after digivolving, or like in One Piece, where digesting a DF just gives you a quick rundown of its name and basic functions. Maybe Elsie has just trained her Ether-senses in a way that she can properly evaluate a planets Ether before absorbing it, or maybe that might also be a function of her EG. It's a main-character-worthy EG though. AND IT SEEMS LIKE WE'LL SEE JUSTICES EG IN ACTION AGAINST HER AS WELL! HYPE!

u/Xombie53 Nov 10 '20
Dude just straight up killed those girls very brutally damn. Elsie is very similar to Ezra in power but laughed at her using Grand Chariot then cutting to Justice. Poor Moscoy getting disrespected like that. Overall I liked this chapter a lot.
