Hey, have you noticed how Tartarus Arc reflects and mirrors Phantom Arc? I've seen it first suggested here http://jhayni-in-the-rain.tumblr.com/post/76771676926/the-last-couple-of-chapters-are-giving-me, but there's more than that. So, 1. evil guild headquarters comes to FT 2. FT building is destroyed 3. Cana has her moment protecting other guildmates 4. Elfman gets again in context when he is stated responsible for Lisanna's 'death' (potential here) 5. Mira is captured (like in Phantom), Erza is captured (out of action temporarily as in Phantom) - although those might be labeled as not characteristical enough 6. in Phantom Lucy is captured and other guildmates are rescuing her, here it is mirrored - everyone else is captured and she is rescuing them 7. in Phantom Gajeel tortures Lucy, here he protects her (mirror again) 8. in Phantom Gajeel and Natsu fight with each other, while Lucy is injured, here the same situation, but mirrored as they're fighting together (only that Juvia should go elsewhere already not to mess with my analogy :P) also! In Phantom final blow is given by Makarov, here he is already headed for Lumen Histoire, so we can expect something similiar. And I also expect mirror on Gray and Juvia fight, since in Phantom it resulted with her getting free of her rain, I expect Gray to get rid of what's haunting him, and we have Deliora here already, so yeah :P I expect Juvia to interfere with this fight, idk? Speculation here, but theoretically she could mess with Gray's ice shell in a way that he could seal Deliora with her body and not his. But I think if they moondripped her later, she should be fine, since she's water anyway lol. Than him freezing her in Phantom arc fight could be seen as foreshadowing of this. And the aftermath of Phantom - Makarov is thinking about retiring, then Laxus comes and trolles everyone; here Makarov might retire for real/die, and Laxus could become next master, accepting the guild as it is - that would be nice parallel too.
