So did we ever figure out who the kind in chapter 234 was? Is it a young Zeref?

[Siriel]

When in doubt about a character, always assume that it's Jellal. Especially if it doesn't make sense for it to be Jellal.

More seriously, we still don't know. He was apparently important enough to get the chapter title though.

[Dark Soul # 7]

Interesting chapter.

I like that Zeref isn't the typical kind of big bad and that he at one point actually decided that being a bad guy was wrong.

I quite liked the Ultear/Meredy scene. It was different, sweet and tragic. Looking forward to further developments with these two.

Basically, it seems that if he knows that killing people is wrong and cares about people's lives, his magic power goes down but he starts emitting the soul consuming wave from earlier.

If he doesn't care about it, then his magic power goes back up and he stops doing that, but then he becomes a villain.

So it isn't enough that he knows that he must care, because he seems to be perfectly aware of it all and one would assume that be enough. I wonder if there's something that's just stopping him from caring all-together.

[Holy Spirit]

Aw, so we are stuck with gimped emo-Zeref.

If he's gonna preach about preach about value of life every chance he gets...

This chapter.... was no.

Zeref. Cut it out. Seriously, knock it off.

What the heck kinda nonsense are you spouting? Rhetorical. Rhetorical! Oh Dear God RHETORICAL!!!

I was hoping he'd be so...... and then this.....





Mashima.... it hurts...... don't do this to me man.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No! It's.... it's not to late... this.... this can still turn around! It can!

Just stop saying "Value of Life.". That's all he's got to do..... stop talking...... stop talking about things that make him look lame!

Mashima fix him! Fix it!!!

He can still be awesome..... just stop.... turn around.. and go the other way.

So... how exactly did GH made him stop caring about life?

[Siriel]

So... how exactly did GH made him stop caring about life?

Because they're evil people. So logically he doesn't give a crap about them. And they need to be stopped. Which won't happen unless someone kills them. So it's fine to kill them. So their lives aren't worth anything.

He apparently has that kind of snowballing morality.

also cause killing them will prevent them from killing others


which kinda makes me think he's gonna do the reverse of their world of magic idea

You know, if acnologia turns out to be some lame endless ripoff it means Mashima run out of creativity and is just reusing his previous ideas.

[Robotech Master]

Word from spoiler town is that Acnologia is
spoilers:

indeed the black dragon Gildartz was talking about. And it apparently has some kind of vaguely moth-ish draconic design. So, Battra Dragon!

Nice. I'm looking forward to this guy.

I didn't realize at first, but on second glance... it looks kind of like the FT guild emblem. Coincidence?

[Pong]

Gildarts you womanizer, you...

Also Acnologia looks pretty cool. I don't envy FY rigth now. They are about to be stomped.

But man, Cana lost the glitter already? what was the point of it then? It has no connection to anything. It's like it was there to give BN some motivation beyond "rawr evil"

[1505627]

damn gildarts, you a player

[Pong]

Also I kinda feel that Gildartz days are numbered.

I suspect within the next three or four chapters he will attempt to do his best Gale Glory impression, and I mean that in the most heartbreaking way possible

[flashdisk]

That's an interesting thought.

As for the chapter, I think the most interesting part of it was the revalation of Gildartz and Cana's relation. Gildartz handled the situation quite well in the end. And the scene was quite heartfelt. I'm glad that that plot thread reached its conclusion. Also I enjoyed the comedy of the chapter.

There was also a good cliffhanger at the end. I'm interested in seeing what happens next now.

This Acnologia thing really looks a bit weird. I'm not so sure its a dragon. But then Fairy Tail does seem to have dragons with wildly different forms. Of all the dragons, it seems that only Igneel looks like the average dragon shape that we've come to know.
