I dunno if it's only because I read some comments out of the bunch, but why are people so upset with the chapter? I mean, it's a setup, and a great one at that. But then again, maybe it's because I only read a few comments and was too lazy to read the others. ( .__.)

I thought this chapter was pretty decent~ I'm actually happy that the Demons are finally counterattacking and showing some power. I just hope Hiro doesn't fuck this up next chapter.

My favorite scene was the one with Taurus...omg that was just too funny. And Lucy's comment killed me. :D

My least favorite thing about the chapter was...Lucy. Yeah, I usually put up with the crap roles Hiro gives Lucy...but c'mon; already at a disadvantage and the fight's just started.

The soul turtle-man uses at the end could be Hades or Atlas. If it's Atlas, then we can say Natsu's already won. So let's hope it's Hades. >__>

Ahh... the Gray thing. Hiro's doing an amazing job at keeping us thinking of what the hell they are to each other. Here are my thoughts on this topic:


 * Father: This is the most trending one. Of course, their names: Gray and Silver. Hahaha, I actually find that combination funny and plausible. I mean, we saw Minerva being turned into a Demon, previously being human herself. So what's not to say the same happened to Silver? This is my speculation on how they converted Silver into a Demon. Probably after Deliora attacked his home, Tartarus, traveling on Cube, happened to sense a great Magic power coming from that direction. However, it was not Silver's; rather, Ur's. Nonetheless they took him in. Gray was left there because he didn't know Magic back then, so they assumed he was dead or useless. Right after Silver is taken, Ur appears with Lyon, finding Gray and giving him a home. Silver is then placed in a demofication tube and fixed up by Lamy, given a new curse and being turned into a Demon. Why would he feel disgust when hearing Gray's name, then? I believe it's a side effect to his curse. Just like Jackal, who explodes, Silver's could have something to do with love for his family. We all know Hiro touches the love topic so much. And then again, Silver was seen at a grave, and Ur didn't have a proper burial, just ice and water. Or, if Silver's Magic was the one they sensed and not Ur's, then it would boost the chances of why he was turned into a Demon. And the grave he was visiting was his wife.


 * Ur's husband & Ultear's father: This one actually makes more sense, we saw it with Lyon. Shortly after Ur dies trying to protect Gray, Silver becomes aware of this and feels nothing but disgust when hearing his name. However, due to the fact that Tartarus was planning on finding/reviving E.N.D. he was unable to do anything at the time. But then, when he hears that Ultear is dead (she's super old, like older than Maka, her Magic power is probs faint. Or the Magic caused all of her Magic to leave her body.), he can only blame Gray and makes it his goal to kill the man who has had his life saved by both his girls~ But then that brings me back to the grave he was visiting. We could assume that he himself built one in respect of her lover's life.


 * Future Gray: They do look alike, and the scar is in a similar location... Maybe somewhere in the future Gray engages in a fight with a Demon and has his scar grow deeper. He is then turned into a Demon and loses the ability to control his own body. The Fairy Tail Mages are unable to kill him, so Demon Gray takes advantage of the situation and kills them instead. And then goes back to the past, trying to kill himself before he is taken captive and turned into a Demon. Maybe this is why he was trying to keep Natsu and Lisanna locked up. Hoping that if he would fail, Natsu would surely knock some sense into Gray.


 * Tartarus - Future Fairy Tail: I've heard this one so many times, everywhere. At first I was just like "that's not possible," but there are some similarities. Kyouka being future Mirajane does have some possibility. We all know Mirajane tends to the jobs and is one Fairy Tail's core. Well, Kyouka has the ability to grant people power or test if they are strong enough to undergo her demofication. And Mira does state that she already has the Demon particles within her. Silver and Gray I just explained. Natsu and E.N.D., this one is actually interesting. What if Fairy Tail attempted to go back into the past to prevent Tartarus from growing. Natsu already knew Igneel, but Igneel did not. Let's assume that Natsu goes to him to ask for help, obviously he would deny him because Dragons are the most powerful creatures at the time. Natsu challenges him, shocking Igneel when he witnesses Natsu's Magic, being so similar to his. Natsu explains that he is from the future and came to warm them that Igneel would not be able to kill E.N.D.. Natsu and Igneel become great friends. Natsu himself still does not know that he is the one who will be Igneel's greatest enemy. By the time they are ready to face Zeref and his Demons, Natsu and Igneel build that "father-son" relationship, and somewhere along the line Zeref catches interest in Natsu (which would explained why he would know Natsu: his strongest Demon) and turns him into one of his. Zeref however did not expect Natsu to be this powerful, thus gaining him the name of his strongest Demon (and probs the fact that Igneel was not able to kill him lead Zeref to think that Natsu was even stronger). And when it comes to killing his "enemy," Igneel decides that he cannot do it. Let's remember that it wasn't just Natsu who traveled back to the past. It was the whole of the Fairy Tail guild and some of the others. No Magic = slave to Demons. So who wouldn't go to prevent this? Afterwards, Igneel gathers several Dragons and tells them to remember the scent of their Dragon Child for them to train them in the future (or get a child to train). The Dragons go into hiding and only come out when their Dragon Child is born. Knowing what will happen in the past, the Dragons teach their children "Secret" techniques. Thus why they are secret; stronger, in hopes of gaining some advantage of killing the Demons and Zeref. The lower Fairy Tail members got turned into those masked minions. The prominent members got turned into Demons. And of course their Magic increased after Zeref calculated that the Dragons would be planning something to stop him. Sayla would be Lucy, since they both love to write stories. Let's keep in mind that Levy loves to read, not write. At their Magic would make sense. Lucy controls spirits, Sayla controls people. And then again, Lucy does admire Mirajane greatly. So what's not to say this is why Kyouka and Sayla share that relationship? The child slice would be Erza, ect.. In Rave **Spoiler (I'll be real careful)** something did happen for the last human on earth to turn back time and whatnot so humanity would flourish again. So maybe Fairy Tail is living in that "other" world.

There are some other theories, but I don't really like them. ( .___.) Anyways~ back to the chapter.

I think people didn't like this chapter because it was just that interesting. When you're really into something, you don't want it to end, and that's just what this chapter did. When it was getting good, it ended. We all know Hiro likes to build suspense.

Turtle man theories:
 * Atlas: Let's hope not. We don't want anymore one-hit K.O. people by Natsu. >__> The flames do resemble Atlas tho. So it's a big possibility. And lets not forget that they both reacted to this Maho.
 * Hades: Yes! I wanted Hades to be alive for so long!!! He is an awesome villain and he was fucking strong! Who wouldn't want that power. Like fuck yes!!! And Lucy was asking turtle-guy to return Aries and Taurus back to her. So the souls he takes must be living inside of him. Thus the shell and the big body. And just like Atlas, Lucy and Natsu both recognized this Magic~ It would be so interesting to see Hades' Magic again! And I can assume that this would give Natsu and Lucy a hard time. ORRRR, since we know Makarov has crazy sensing abilities, he appears (he probs jumped into the breach, tho I doubt it since strong people are needed to protected the wounded. I wonder why Cana didn't just leave them in the card. >___>) and wrecks shit!!! But it would be so cool if Hades, like, suddenly cracks turtle-man's shell when he senses Makarov, trying to get some payback. So that would be so freaking exhilarating!!! :3


 * Igneel: Call me crazy. :D

I hoooope Gildarts appears. ( -__-) He wasn't there when the Dragons were killing half the Fair Tail Mages and it would be stupid of Hiro not to bring him back after the guild regained its title of the strongest guild (which hinted that Gilly would return by then). It already frustrating enough when all of the strong characters are left out and the mainstream ones are the ones who keep getting into battles and doing shit. Really annoying. I'm hoping some of the Mages from the other guilds return, like Kagura and Sting.

Ugggggggggggh, it's been a while since I wrote such a lengthy review!!! I expect something of the same caliber, king of whores. :D
