User blog:IamJakuhoRaikoben/Chapter 369: The Place Prayers Reach, Review.

The chapter cover featured Risley....nothing interesting there.

The chapter begins with Jellal seemingly blown to pieces with Zero laughing maniacally. But it turns out that Zero is really dead, and that it was all just Midnight's illusion which Jellal broke by crushing his own eyes? O_o Uhh....okay. I forgot Midnight had that ability. :D Looks as if Yummy gets to say "I told you so!" to all you haterz! :P Anyhow, while the Oracion Seis is distracted, Jellal uses Grand Chariot and Sema to finish them all off. Awesome!!!! And thus, he single handedly defeats the Oracion Seis! Afterwards, Midnight wants him to kill them, but Jellal refuses and he also says he isn't going to take them to jail - he wants them to join Crime Sorciere.

Meanwhile, the Exchairman foolishly transfers the key to himself, and Kyouka slaughters him. I was literally laughing my ass off here. There is no way in high hell I would have transferred the key to myself, and I certainly wouldn't have told anyone I did it afterwards. Anyhow, the seal on face apparently releases, and the bomb Elfman has is about to explode, but I'd bet my ass that Cana is going to stop it.

Overall, good chapter. And a very good explanation for Jellal's "death." It would have annoyed me to no end if it were a thought projection that got killed because that's far too predictable. Midnight using his Illusion Magic, however, was pretty damn good. And even better was the chairman's death. He delivered my precious Mira and Erza to enemy hands, and I wanted him to pay for it - I got my wish. :D
