Even Blue Mistral (a shojo ffs) seemed better to me than what Fairy Tail's been lately. Mard Geer is still lame. We have yet another strongest team, that should be 4-5 now... But they're getting their asses handed to them... Yet they're probably gonna do some crazy stuff and that fool will get rekt. And now even the Twin Dragons say stuff that sucks. And Jiemma sucks big time in the end. Those fights are so badly written. Well, at least it's consistently really good drawing as you say. And I guess it's a good fun read overall if one doesn't take it seriously, but I get the feeling that Mashima is himself trying hard to write it in a totally serious manner, which makes it difficult...
