It's still dumb as fuck tho. Also, Irene being the creator of Dragon Slayer Magic was the planned thing. Her relationship to Erza is absolutely stupid, and even then, it couldn't account for her defeat, which resulted in an out-of-nowhere, complete personality shift and the, "Oh, I was lying to you" cliche. If Irene had simply remained the creator and nothing else, that would have been much better, and the entire debacle wouldn't have lessened the impact of the much-better-written August suicide. Irene's was too recent, too unplanned, and too trash for me to feel anything, even though I want to.
