User blog comment:Miskos3/Fairy Tail Episode 180: Garou Knights, Review/@comment-24264679-20140504023650

Episode was like 5/10 for me simply because it had way to much talking and useless filler. I actually find this part to one of the better parts of the Manga and couldn't wait for it to be animated. I am glad they are adding additional stuff but they don't add it in the right places and not the right stuff for me. I feel like they could have limited the talking between Sting/Minerva to the first 5 minutes in the episode. Within the next 2-3 minutes Team rescue should have found Acadious. The Excutioners should have arrived the next Minute and the Team fight should have only lasted for about 5-6 minutes tops before they got split up. Thus 13-15 Minutes within the episode the individual fights should have Started. The Last 5 Minutes should have shown the Start of Mirajane vs Kamika. Natsu vs Leader, Lucy/Yukino vs Uosuke, Wendy vs Cosmo, Pantherlily vs Acid dude. The fights shouldn't have concluded just started and you could have added additional details for the individual battles.

Now what happened in the episode is they spent 10 minutes recaping and on useless speeches between Sting and Minerva then they spent and extra 5 on Team Rescue wondering around trying to create non funny moments and boring talk. The Last 5 minutes or so was only showing Wendy and Natsu.

Comedy: 0/10 Plot: 3/10 Fight: 6/10
