1: Ahh, so its "Mashima y u no drawing hentai" cover time again?

4: "making out with 400 year old evil entities who are hell bent on the world's destruction" - strangely accurate. :D

5: Good Luck!

6: As far as I'm concerned, the soundtrack is the "carrying feature" of the entire anime.

7: Agreed. Zeref's a great villain.

11:I may be repeating myself, but hey, another great battle that makes you think. There are a lot of unclear points, but I agree with the staff in one thing: based on pure strength alone, Silver is a beast, and clearly over Mystogan. But, I don't want to belittle Mystogan. He's strength is nothing to sneeze at either as he played around with Natsu in Edolas, he stood toe-to-toe with a pre-time-skip Laxus, and finally let's not forget one of the most quietly epic moments in the entire fkin series: Mystogan calmly announcing to Porlyusica that he basically hunted down and defeated 95% of Phantom Lord himself. And he likes apples. So, while Silver is stronger, it's only his magic, and specifically, his flash freeze: anything else he has is manageable, and specifically in hand to hand combat I see less of a difference between them. Plus, battles like this are not always about strength; if they would be, Gray would have no chance to defeat Silver. Gray won with his best trait, the very defining characteristics of his magic: creativity. While he is ungodly strong, Silver's tactic is simple as a doornail, Gray could best him with learning to control his ice, then pulling a last minute trick. Now, if we look at creativity: we don't know much about Mystogan, but during the short time we've seen him he struck me as one of the most versatile mages in the show we've ever seen. Just look at his wikia page right here: sleep magic, illusions, layered circles, magic mirroring, air magic, mist body, not to mention non-battle oriented magic skills (which are, btw, severely underrated in my oppinion - they are very-very rare) like the creation of the x-balls and manipulation of anima. For me, this tells that if there one thing that Mystogan has, it's creativity. If Gray could devise a strategy and beat a lot stronger Silver, I expect Mystogan to do no less.

TL;DR: While he's strong, we've seen trickery beating Silver once; and there's no one more sneaky than Mystogan. My vote goes to him.

15: My 2 cents about the future of the magazine: if you enjoy it, do it. If you don't enjoy it, don't do it. If you are concerned about the amount of feedback, if you think that it's not worth it for the amount of viewership you get, don't do it. If you think it's worth it but now you think its too much of a bother, take a break, or, again, don't do it. And most important of all: try to have fun while doing it! If you don't want to do recaps anymore, then skip them. If you want to do more creative stuff, do it. It's your magazine, an elaborated "inside joke", a monthly game for a community, and fuck everybody else who says otherwise, but only complains without real contribution. Cheers!
