What the hell was that? oO

After the previous episodes I thougth they were over the misplaced and not funny humour fights from the GMG.

I really don't get why Hisui even bothered with making those keys. They only work once a Spirit has already lost the will to fight, but once the Spirit lost the will to fight, there's no longer a need to force them back into the Spirit world, so what's the point of even having those keys in the first place?

I also didn't like Yukino's Polaris and Deneb keys.

And is it just me or are the animaters really going out of their way to make Lucy appear weak and useless and contrast her with a powered-up Yukino to make that impression even stronger?

I also have an issue with how people tend to just stand around and watch other's fight until randomly popping in with a "It's my turn now", firing off an attack or two and then going back to spectating. What happened with working together?

It made sense in the first episode of the arc (or 2nd if you count the wish granting as part of the arc), because Lucy told and then practically begged Natsu not to interfere, but here? Why wouldn't they all fight together?

There's also the matter of convenience. Hisui just so happens to have pretty much everything they need with her at the moment they run into each other by chance? Deus Ex Hisui... Also the matter of going from happy to depressed and crying and then back to happy in less than two minutes was just totally overhasted.

Oh well, at least Arcadios showing off was nice, even though it was ultimately ineffective. And I also liked that Natsu used his brains for a change when he took the keys back.

Overall I didn't much like the episode.
