The snailpace continues.

The filler scenes were good enough I guess, expect for the endless talking and especially the Dragons patiently waiting for the mages to finish their speeches.

I'm also not fond of mixing up the guild and the helpless six year old Asuka being brought onto a battlefield... but I commented on the latter further down already.

Did Mavis always tower head and shoulders over Makarov like this? I didn't think she was that tall.

At least they used the music well and were able to keep the derp animations at a minimum unlike previous episodes. They even managed to give Hibiki a normal face.

And the music was used well too.

Speaking of the music: This episode cleared up the possible use of an old OST piece and showed that it wasn't the old "White Dragon and Shadow Dragon" after all, but a re-work of it. A bit more e-guitare in the background of the violin pieces gives it away quite clearly.

Overall a rather medicore episode. Some good additions but not very well executed.
