I agree. Natsu vanishing reminds me of haru which we all know will be undone before the manga ends anyway, just like his fight with zeref, i mean natsu a main character vanishing before the manga ends is obviously mashima's attempt to put a sense of loss and danger in the remaining manga but pfft, i doubt anyone who reads fairytail would still believe something bad will still happen that wont be fixed with the power of friendship. And lucy rewriting zeref's book and only getting a fever that can be cooled down by gray is so pathetic that it seems like everything related to zeref has been diluted into a problem that can be fixed by anyone with the power of friendship.

"Oh look a crack in the sky maybe acnologia is back" why would mashima still want to drag that idea with 8 chapters remaining unless it will be resolved in 3 chapters or less, and it will just become a disappointing fight, which i think mashima should have avoided and just used the remaining chapters to clean up some plot holes and make a good ending and epilogue.
