Well it's shorter than what I usually write for a comment on a review.

Well I guess we have a difference in opinions on this chapter as what happened with Arcadios really did ruin it for me. As for the ending it's not so much Loke that ruined, as I been wanting him to show up for a while now but we really do need an explanation on the keys soon, hopefully right off the bat when we see Lucy and the others next. What really made me hate the ending was Natsu just annoying me with cockiness as because he's an idiot he can't pull of a good line like other characters and that we constantly see this over and over again. It also leads to the reason why I want Fairy Tail to lose so much now as this arc showed that little was at risk at the start of the GMG meant that our heroes didn't have to win all the time and could struggle with their battles, that's why I loved the start of this arc seeing what the world was like 7 years later with all these other powerful mages becoming even stronger than before. Sadly the most of what we've seen, especially on the third day and beyond is just overwhelming victory. It just annoys seeing how the previous arc had them pull victory out now where and now they've basically done the same. Also one key factor is the time travel plot device and the knowledge that we readers have of the devastating future that will befall our heroes so why can't there be a large loss for Fairy Tail now to start off these series of events? I just want to see a really defeat on Fairy Tail which has a lasting effect on them.

As for the GMG parts I hope you're not right about that. Overall I didn't want all of them to lose, like wanted Gray to have a victory seeing what happened on the first day and the same with Juvia as I think it would be cool to see her fight Lyon and win. As the others I would really like Laxus to lose his fight with his cool yet ridiculous victory over Raven Tail and as for Erza I would want to see her win one fight then lose the next conflict she enters. As for Gajeel I don't really know what to think. He had his victory yet it Hiro was trolling then but he will probably face of with Rogue and I do like Rogue and he was trolled way more than Gajeel with that stupid ending. Honestly I have a scenario just in my head now that involves then both standing near the end. Anyway I would prefer not to have a "smashing victory of Fairy Tail" and to see Orga and Minerva would be great so hopefully it won't end up with Fairy Tail dominating the GMG.
