The animation went in and out at some points. The close-ups were all fairly good, which I guess was the more important part of it all. But yeah, the fire pants, especially after chapter 403, really did not do me any favors. I almost just stopped watching the episode because it irked me so much. I guess A-1 has gotten into Mashima's habit of using them for every little friendship speech, huh? But if you look at it objectively, the episode was very nice from start to finish. The filler was a little boring, but it was a nice transition into the flashback, and the overall ending of the ep itself was cute. :3

I'm pretty excited for next week though. I guess since it's a filler arc it's hard to understand what is going on since we have no real general ideas except for the main plot of the arc. The opening and ending theme are what I'm really interested in though, but the name "Mysterious Magic" makes me think it'll be something like S.O.W., which is admittedly my least favorite opening theme because of it's childish sound and nature (sorry Prime, just my take on it). If it sounds childish, I'll never grow on it, and it will never grow on me. I will just skip it ever week and pretend it doesn't exist. Same with the ending (whatever the name is). ;D
