User blog comment:Omega natsu2/Fairy Tail Episode 212: Juvia vs. Aries: Clash in the Desert!, Review./@comment-96.24.244.24-20141219081628

Episode overall was pretty good. Juvia vs Aries was good although she would have had a better time against Juvia in her original form. Levy vs Capricorn was just like WTF. Lucy vs Virgo was kind of good but nothing to exciting. Ophincius vs Natsu was okay. Also why is people surprised that Ophi is a nurse considering Ophi was a healer who had a snakes staff. Only other thing I could see Ophi human form being is a doctor. All in All a decent episode for this Arc.

This arc doesn't make any sense though for multiple reasons. First off even if you force close their gates they can always force them back open as shown with Leo and Karen and other spirits opening their gates freely thanks to Lucy. Also the fact that all the Celestial spirits opened their gates freely when they first appeared. Second how are these keys any more effective than the Gold Keys? I feel like the anime team just said fuck it and created their own rules.
