Welcome back Raven! ( ^_^)/

I'm a bit conflicted by this chapter. I lost count of how many times my expression changed while reading, from "YEEEAH!!!" to "WTH!?", to disapoint to laughter, to disapoint again and so on. Hiro actually did some things right but right in the next page he just undid them. I mean, I liked that the Saints launched a final attack but all that it did was raise God Serena's hype. We can't even say what Wolfhein's and Hyberion's are and even then, they barelly did any damage to God.

I actually liked that he was the Cave Dragon Slayer because that'd open space for Hiro to explore more possibilities like, how can another DS exist other than the original ones? (I confess I didn't even remeber Dragon Lachrima at this point because Hiro just abandoned this some time ago). But then he just pulled out three other DS magics and it became stupid again. 8 Dragon Lachrima really? And then they leave without finishing Warrod, but that was barely a problem.

When the silhouette appeared I was like"GILDARTS MOTHERFOCKERS!!!!" because it was the perfect moment fr him to show up, but "nah, it's just Acnologia... Huh? ... ... ... YEAH!!! ACNOLOGIA MOTHEFOCKERS!!!!" because to be fair I really like Acnologia and I wnated to see him back.in a fight so bad that I couldn'thave asked for anything better. But Hiro had to do it... I know Acnologia is a badass and is the strongest known being in the universe so far, but, why? Why another one-shot Hiro? It was awesome proving that the strongest in Ishgar is shit near him and he doesn't even care to answer the guy, but another one-shot? Seriously? He didn't even care to change to dragon form, that's just how lowly God Serena is compared to him, but still, one-shot. Now all the absurd levels of God Serena hype were absorbed by Acnologia, and now he's coming for the other seven who literally stand no chance but will still win. Good job Hiro.

IMO, this could have been awesome if the chapter had started with Acnologia showing up and revealing God's DS magic. Then he'd show his magic and when they proved useless Acnologia destroyed him. The Saint's would use the opportunity to retreat and then they could be used again later by Hiro. Almost nothing woulld have changed but it would be slightly better.

Other points:
 * Erza looked so pretty in the cover, more than usual. And her breasts looked smaller and more realistic, and to be fair I liked them like this more than in their normal exagerated size.
 * Gildarts gave Acnologia a better fight in dragon form than God Serena in human form. That means that Gildarts knows a better way totake on Acnologia than anyone else. Can we expect a rematch between the two or a flashback of their fight?
 * This chapter confirmed that we'll be seeing Cobra soon, and that means Meredy and possibly Rustyrose too... And Jellal, but no one cares about him.
 * Acnologia did to God the same thing he did to Igneel. If he does it again this attack should be named and receive a page in this wikia.

The title to the next chapter is too vague but if I'm to give it a shot it's Warrod contacting Mavis warning her of Acnologia and saying his final words before passing out. Also, possibility of a colored Acnologia next chapter? Awesome. Well, see ya. o/
