Yeah, the magic-eater thing's really new, that's true. Maybe I'm just not really fond of how animanga frequently uses old strong characters to hype up the new ones by showing how the old can't touch the new. Poor Jelall'd been used now twice for this effect (first against August), we should give the guy a little break. ^^

I think what really irks me in these kind of fights is how everybody is only allowed to show off when they are going to be defeated, or just to prove a point. I'm not talking about Mashima here, this is a somewhat common problem in these kind of stories. And the worts thing is, again, that it is just some inherently good material, that is, again, wasted, where it could've been used for better effect. It really shows that the writer in case could have the creativity to create interesting, dynamic fight by pitting the two flashy movesets agains each other, but for some reason they opt for these one-hit, curbstomb resolutions.

But, of course,it's nothing new, we've talked already about all this a lot of times, so, yeah, sucks to be, I guess. :D

TL;DR : meanwhile, Christina's unnamed crew is like, *Splat* Hey, Frank, I've got something on the windshield, could you wipe that?
