User blog:IamJakuhoRaikoben/Chapter 384: Attack of the Stars, Review.

The chapter begins with an incredibly sweet color page of Aquarius and Lucy (as well as Loke and Virgo). Right out of the gate, Aquarius starts going ballistic with her urn like she usually does. Girl get some new moves. >_> However, Dino-Demon (his name still escapes me) is able to swim through her waves, and for what I think is the first time in the series, Aquarius gets hurt. O___O Mind = Blown. Meanwhile, Creepy Jackal creeps up behind Loke and Virgo and takes them out. And in three seconds flat, Lucy's two strongest spirits and Virgo are defeated.

Since Lucy summoned three spirits at once, she can't move. She tries to, but Jackal blasts her in the leg. Dino-Dude apparently isn't interested in joining in on the Lucy torture fest so he leaves, but Lamy and Jackal are more than happy to continue without him. Random note: this is like the third time Lucy's been tortured. She's danger-prone. ^___^ Anyhow, Lamy tells Jackal to blow up Lucy's boobies, but he kills Lamy instead. I knew without a shadow of a doubt that something was going to interrupt their torture as soon as Lamy even suggested damaging Lucy's boobs. Those are Fairy Tail's money makers. There is no series without them, lol. :D

Anyway, he tries to go after Lucy again, but Aquarius shows back up! And she tells Lucy to summon the Celestial Spirit King. Say what? :/ To do so, Lucy will have to break one of her keys. Aquarius volunteers her own. Lucy doesn't want to, but Aquarius manages to convince her in a touching scene, and we actually see Aquarius cry. Once again, Mind = Blown. Lucy then summons the Spirit King who demolishes Tartarus's guild in one slash. At the end of the chapter, the Spirit King faces off against the King of Hades.

Overall, this was a bittersweet chapter. On one hand, I'm glad the Spirit King is here and I'm beyond curious to see what's going to go down between him and Mard Geer. On the other hand, no more Aquarius. :( Lucy's never going to fight with her again. She had a good send off, but still she's one of my favorite Celestial Spirits. It'll suck not to see her again. She was the first Celestial Spirit we ever saw. Part of me wishes Lucy would've broken Sagittarius's key. I wouldn't have missed him at all. Btw, on a random note, Loke has come to the human world using his own Magic Power before so why didn't he just do it again? It would've saved us the whole "Oh noes, Lucy's summoned three spirits" debacle. >_>
