I like how they redid the beginning part where Kagura unsheathed her sword. They actually added the blast that destroyed several buildings which they completely forgot in the last episode.

OMG I'm so happy, BLOOD. The fact that copious amount on Erza's hand contradicting that Millianna's back didn't really bother me. I'm just glad their not hiding the injuries anymore. Though what did irk me a bit was the fact that Kagura's blood and Millianna's blood were two different shades.

The animation for this episode was pretty good I must say. Not as many awkward faces and positions as the last two episodes. Erza's war face looked pretty close to that of the manga. Yay.

I'm glad too see Minerva being the sadistic bitch we see her to be after this week's chapter (I didn't hate it as much as everyone else seemed too, but Minerva's sudden defeat and change of character is really disappointing.

The scenes with Hisui and Datong (Whatever that ugly bastard's name is) felt kind of tedious as well as the scenes with F-Lucy, though its the same as it was in the manga. At first I thought it was mostly filler until I read the chapters this episode was adapted from.

Overall, I thought this was a pretty good episode. May I say that this is the goriest Fairy Tail to date? The background music sounded great as well. I especially liked the parts where operatic voices are used. It gives off a serious atmosphere.
