Surprised to see Acnologia as a human; I think Fairy Tail is (sad to say) looking like it's going to end soon (no pun intended), although I hope that's not the case. Layla's connection to this is her probably being involved in some sort of dark arts which led to her death.

My personal hope is that they get to take down whatever-his-name-is that put the curse on Zeref, and that they pull something out-of-the-box and original.

Now what I'm wondering are the backstories of Wendy, Gajeel, and the other dragon-slayers. Even if they're something somewhat mundane, it would still be nice to hear them.
