Synopsis

Eclipse Celestial Spirits arc

Note: Events in this arc occur only in the anime and do not constitute canon material.

Capricorn and the rest of Lucy's Spirits announcing their freedom

Eclipse Sagittarius appears with the rest of Lucy's Celestial Spirits, all with brand new personalities and appearances. They announce that their contract with Lucy is now null and void, to which Lucy disagrees because, according to her, they're relationship wasn't based on contracts and orders. However, not having memories of their time together, they attack Lucy and her companions. Later, in the Celestial Spirit world, the Spirits talk about how the Mages got away, and how they plan to achieve perfect freedom.Some time after, Eclipse Sagittarius, along with other Celestial Spirits, starts performing Liberum. However, they are interrupted by the arrival of the Fairy Tail Mages. Even though all of them initially want to fight Fairy Tail, they all go back to their respective gates upon the arrival of reinforcements.

With Erza being the one to fight him, the showdown between the two begins. To make the battle more interesting, Sagittarius splits their showdown into 3 matches: the first one being horseback archery which Erza wins; next comes the race which Sagittarius effortlessly wins; lastly, the third match turns out to be a battle on horseback, but to make things more complex, there are mines spread across the battlefield and activate if one is to step on one of them. Even though Eclipse Sagittarius initially has the upper hand due to his improved instincts, Erza manages to trick him by taking a ride on his horseback, making him step onto a mine and thus lose the match. Admitting his defeat, Sagittarius' gate is closed by Erza's Celestial Spirit Banishment Key.

Later, it is revealed that Sagittarius being sent back to the Celestial Spirit World is part of Eclipse Ophiuchus' plan to empower the Eclipsed Celestial Spirit King, which ultimately occurs when the King absorbs the floating orbs that house Sagittarius and the other twelve Eclipse Spirits into his body. Ultimately, thanks to the efforts of Natsu and Happy, who venture inside the Eclipse Celestial Spirit King, Sagittarius and the others are freed after Natsu destroys the core of the Eclipsed King. With this, the Spirit World is returned to its original state, including Sagittarius and the Eclipse Spirits.

Magic and Abilities

Master Archer: Eclipse Sagittarius, living up to the theme of his constellation, employs bow and arrows in battle, with his skills as a Celestial Spirit lying in their use.

Enhanced Senses: As his lower body is that of a horse, Eclipse Sagittarius has greater senses than a human, being able to detect the mines' locations during his third match with Erza.

Immense Reflexes: Eclipse Sagittarius can aim his bow down and fire his projectiles at incredible speed.

Immortality: As a Celestial Spirit, Eclipse Sagittarius cannot die, unless he is somehow forced to stay in the Human World for too long without returning to the Celestial Spirit World, something which would slowly deplete his life force, eventually resulting in his death.

Equipment

Bow and Arrows: As evident of his role as an archer, Eclipse Sagittarius is always shown carrying around a bow and a quiver full of arrows.
