I just got home and read this chapter and all I can say is colour me fucking impressed :D

First, Warrod got to do something. I complained last week that if he was down he literally got killed off-screen. Glad to see that we at least got a glimpse of the saints in action. HOWEVER, exactly as you say Jak, I'll still be quite miffed if they're down for the rest of the arc. I'd really like to see them come back in the eleventh hour.

Second, ngl, I groaned at Serena's Magic. I love the concept (as in, Lacrima to give insane Magic abilities and variation with ease) but I groaned at the fact that it was Dragon Slayer Magic. Because, really, tbt, I'm over DS Magic. I would have been fine with him having insane elemental Magic not tied to DS, but alas, it was cool anyways.

And then, just as I'm waiting for some sort of weird ending, the opposite happens. Holy shit, thank god for Acnologia. I bow to your awesomeness. Unlike you Jak, I'm not all that hot for Serena. Tbh, he irks me a lot. So to see him get that smirk wiped off his face by a dragon itself... GAH!! *huggles Acnologia* Come over here Acno, you're staying with me in the cool corner. OMG... Just his entire "Get the fuck outta the road, I'm busy" attitude. I love it :D Really, Acno so far has had the right amount of loss (ie: his arm to Igneel, his technical loss to Mavis' Fairy Sphere) that I like him. He isn't like Serena and others who just get hyped and then taken out. I like the way Mashima has handled his character, so thumbs up all round for this chapter and YES YES YES. I'm so happy an FT chapter has excited me. This hasn't happened in some time.

As for Serena coming back... Well, I'm in two minds. Tbh, I'd be fine either way *shrugs*
