User blog:Miskos3/Fairy Tail 511: The Hell of Starvation, Review

First, some news, courtesy of Yonkou: Mashima will draw an 'after-story' to the Christmas Omake which will be a part of the OVA releasing in December, with the special volume 59.

Now, onto the chapter. Which, imo, turned out much better than I expected. Sting is more unlucky than Jesus, getting crucified for the second time... Ha. In any case, we finally get more explanations on what Larcade's Magic does, it revolves around the 3 main pleasures of a human: sex, food and sleep. Which confirms that what Larcade originally did was indeed a virgin detection magic, so to speak. Sucks for y'all in denial. ;)



Overall, I thought the chapter was pretty cool. Larcade's magic to turn others into Titans man-eaters was rather odd, but hey, after what Larcade already did, this one shouldn't come as a surprise. I was very worried that Sting was gonna follow Kagura and holy shit, how I rolled my eyes seeing a goodamn cross stabbed into his chest. Much to my surprise though, Sting is not done for! I'm not gonna question the whole Minerva teleporting Rogue to Sting outta blue thing, but hey, it ends up in a pretty interesting way, as, unlike in a different timeline, it's Sting here to become a White Shadow Dragon! And I think that double spread looks pretty beastly. Happy to see the fight be actually longer than usual.



Finally, I feel I should mention the whole mess from the beginning of the chapter on how Larcade and Natsu have the same smell... Larcade then calls Natsu a Zeref's son as well. The way I see it, Zeref probably created Larcade in a similar manner as he did with Natsu. Otherwise, dafuq it means?
