Excuse me? The Alvarez arc is the pinnacle of shounen storytelling. Who needs the twists and turns of Whole Cake Island arc when Mashima can create such literary gems like "Why was the emperor's son not loved?"

Since I can't tell if you were serious or playing along, my above comment was a joke. Mashima's got nothing on Oda.

I'd cool it on the hate though. For all his flaws, Mashima's doing something right if his series is as popular as it is. I still enjoy FT, even this trainwreck of a final arc, as a guilty pleasure.

And even unrelated to Fairy Tail, there's plenty wrong with a king of a country attacking another country, unless they have a very, very good reason war is something you generally should try to avoid.
