Brandish being Brandish. 10/10 Nuff said.

I have to say, while it was delivered with fan service, having Layla brought into it outside of some random battle rant is quite good and means that unlike 'certain' enemies, Brandish doesn't have to fight while trying to remember something and therefore won't have a derp moment. Seriously, so many enemies had derp moments mid-battle and their opponents just watched them be derp instead of beating their sorry asses.

Forget that though. Now to wait for whatever prompt Brandish needs to spill the beans about Layla and then we will officially have the answer to the last big mystery that has been hanging for years. I'm loving this arc! First the Zeref backstory, then Lumen Histoire, and now Layla too. What else did we need again? Dragons... Demons... Oh right, just the backstory for Acnologia and also an explanation as to how Igneel got custody of Natsu from Zeref.
