Well, everyone has said everything. The moment Igneel started to fight Acnologia I knew he was dead and I didn't even see the spoilers you're talking about, the problem is as the other guys said there was no time for us to develop some sort of bonding or something like that with his character so his death felt bit rushed and unimpressive. Now with him dead we can only hope for the other dragons rush in and apply the final blow to the wounded villain. Also the whole antibody thing makes me think that now it's supposed be somewhat more safe for the DS to acess Dragon Force because maybe now they can tap into it's power without risking becoming more dragonlike.

After this chapter I started thinking about two things that can happen but I hope not. The first is Natsu trying to attack Acnologia. I really hope he got blasted away by the nuke because well that's what is expected to happen. He isn't supposed to even lay a hand at Acnologia next chapter, so i hope Gray step in, take him down and run away with the Twin dragons because retreating is of course the best option now. The other thing is that I really hope Lummen Histoire isn't some convenient Deus Ex machina that will bring Igneel back. That would be beyond lame.

What I was hoping to see next is Acnologia coming down and drink/bath in what's left of the blood of Igneel, that would be a bit shocking but I guess it would fit his character really well, and that would supposedly make him stronger. If not maybe Acnologia should retreat to heal as there is nothing left that would catch his interest and maybe he wouldn't be able to fight the other four dragons at once.

And while we're on it, could anyone explain what Zeref was refering to when he said Acnologia would end history once again? Was he talking about the Dragon king festival or maybe the Tenrou incident? This is it, the title of the next chapter makes me think of or something refering to Lumen Histoire or someone talking Natsu out of his depression and trying to make him move forward. Good review and a bit late but happy new year.
