What if... MegaHappy shielded them from the blast, and the only effect of the hit was to wear of Brandish's enlargement? This way, everybody is alive (okay, maybe not Mest, fck that guy), Happy can have an afro, and now Natsu can oneshot August!! G.E.N.I.U.S!!!

(FYI, I'm completely with Nick on this one, it's just at this point I don't trust Mashima and I'm expecting troll bullshit moves around every corner >_<)

BTW, my dream is that Natsu died protecting Lucy, we get a shot of Akno looking calmly at the camera saying "only 5 left", then the series goes along as if nothing happened.
