I expected so much more from this... oh well

I suppose I can accept Natsu taking down Neinhart if it's explored how powerful END really is. And I don't think that death is the only way to elicit dramatic interactions and character growth.

Jacob should have learned to fight without eyesight a long time ago.

But what bothers me is that once again Irene ends up doing what I expected August would do at some point. It's painfully ironic to note that the alleged all-around master magician that has no specialized repertoire is hardly being utilized at all. And to think that he's appointed to be the general, yet he's hardly coordinating everyone.
