Mkay, I don't have much to say about this chapter, because, to be honest, it was the last page that made it amazing. Otherwise, I was very meh towards this.

Franmalth's part was meh. I mean, w/e... how many times have we heard a similar spiel by a bad guy? Lucy hoping Wendy succeeds... also w/e.

As for Wendy, well, I liked seeing Ezel's attacks and her initial power-ups, but I guess just the entire time I was going "turn page and Wendy is okay- nope... much be the next page" ... "turn page and Wendy will power up- nope... much be the next page." Like, I was just waiting for her to get some sort of power-up and fight back, and as soon as Ezel mentioned the Ethernano around Face I was all "Ah... there we go." Not to say it wasn't cool, but it just seemed really predictable to me.

So lol, I think I'm the only one, but I really want Wendy to lose XD I think it would be great if she fights and DF just drains her so much. She can definitely wound Ezel, and the fight can be close, but I don't think she should just suddenly master this state and win. Pure power doesn't win a fight, and I want to see Ezel be calculating and wait for Wendy to drain herself, then rebut. As I said last week, I want Wendy to meet with Jellal and heal his eyes, so I don't even care if Wendy and Ezel's battle is really tied and then Wendy falls exhausted and Jellal/Cobra/Midnight/Meredy/whothefuckever steps in to really push Ezel back and he's forced to retreat, but I just want Wendy to fall in some way, therefore learning that she will have to train to understand and use DF properly to its full extent.

This being said, I also don't want Face to be stopped (does it seem too early to be at Face for any of you guys too?). I mean, didn't Mashima say this would be a long arc, so if Face is stopped next week/the week after...?? *shrugs* I dun get it, but I am interested to see what Mashima will write either way. Something else has to come in and play a part if Face doesn't go off, so I'm very curious at this stage.

Also, I wanted Carla to get eaten XD XD XD Sorry Wendy, but I did :P

That's all I guess. Not much to say ( .__.) A decent chapter and that last panel was gorgeous~ Yay for extra chapters next week, and from the title I get the feeling chapter one will be Wendy kicking ass and chapter two will be an issue with Face - either good or bad. I think Mashima has put these two chapters together on purpose ;D

Also excited for the Erza special * ^ * I hope it's awesome!! And by awesome I mean Jellal comes in or is mentioned in some way X3 *huggles Jellal*

So hungry T^T Lunch time~ ^__^
