Continue it is then! /o/


 * Ikaruga performed a similar dash and cut through Erza's Purgatory Armour while the latter was still posing (Damn, that scene is really funny XD). I know that comparing feats from different battles is useless, but this happened in the same battle. She performed a similar dash and now Erza matched it? She didn't even see it coming last time.
 * Let's just drop this one then. I'm kinda confused too. :P
 * I'm not saying that it negating Eye Magic is BS. The TGT's Eye Magic can only affect if eye contact is made. All fine. But Reflector creates illusions by bending space. It doesn't work through the eyes. It affects the light rays and bends them to create the illusions. So how does the Artificial Eye thing make any sense? Midnight is not using any Magic on her Eye. It makes sense because Mashima says it does. Difference with the sixth sense is that it much more believable.
 * Would you say that the sixth sense thing was unbelievable if, hypothetically, Mashima had shown earlier that Magic Power can not only be sensed, but actually has an aura-like presence. That Erza used the aura of her surroundings and her opponent to navigate herself through the battle? There is no difference in the battle, it's just that we have a clear explanation as to what the sixth sense actually is. It is something which has been built up. In which case that battle would not have been BS. The Ur's consciousness thing had already been built upon. And then we got the Atlas Flame thing in the same vein.
 * Different situations is my point though. That speech is minor stuff in the final outcome, Erza's is not. Sure, Gray was stupid for trying to get his enemy to see the light, but ... he didn't succeed because of his words. That makes the whole thing better. You can't just someone good with words and a beating. Which is what happened in the Minerva battle. Just comparing the speech without taking anything else into consideration is quite absurd. :/
