Wow just wow, first of all have to give Gray and Lyon credit they figured out the illusion pretty fast, and Gray turned it around to just using anger at this illusion. Zancrow's personalty is perfectly done here, what happened to Wendy, is she okay, and what is with Laxus saying the Fairy Tail founders don't know how to stay dead and buried, you know the other person that fits that description is Mavis.

Anyway Erza she is getting destroyed, but one weakness of using the dead to fight your battles, they are stagnate in their strength and strategy, they can't grow and evolve beyond where they were when they died. As much as I want to scoff at Kyouka using the pain enhancers again because it didn't work last time, why would it work this time, but it is not her fault, that is all she knows, the dead can't learn from their mistakes.

Erza defeats them all with this awesome new power up, maybe it was awaken by friendship, but still it is something different than the power of friendship to win the day, Erza wins but is out of the fight, and now it is Jellal to take on Neinhart. Well I am excited, though I hope Kagura gets to contribute.

So Neinhart is like Erza's Brandish, we already did this with Brandish, one of the Spriggen happens to know someone from one of the main character's past, or one of the main character's relatives, we don't know if Lady Eilen is Erza's mother or sister, or whatever, either way it is very similar to what happened with Lucy and Brandish. Though I don't think Erza and Neinhart are going to become BFFs anytime soon.
