Review
Alright, so I'm in a rush and don't have time to do a full review, so I'll just do rants and raves and post my full review later.
Okay, now that I'm home, I'll do a proper review. This chapter was okay. Since it was more a transition chapter than anything else, I'll just talk about the major reveals this chapter. Firstly, Natsu's secret technique. I'm actually relatively pleased with it. In my earlier reviews, I said that it was completely weird and out of character that Natsu was able to create a technique to kill an immortal given his personality and limited intellect, however, it was something Igneel passed down so it makes more sense. The only problems I find with it are 1) Mashima has done the "passing power down through a mark" thing a bit too often for my tastes. First Cana, then Gray, and now Natsu? The only thing good about it, however, is that it's a one time thing. I might have called BS otherwise. 2) I think with all the hype the mark has gotten I was expecting something a little more complex than yet another "mode" from Natsu. Honestly, they've lost their flair and I think Mashima missed an opportunity to do something really cool with Natsu here. 3) Am I the only one who didn't really get the logic behind the technique being able to kill an immortal? I mean I get that it's Mashima's series and what he says is law, but the reasoning seemed kinda flawed to me.
The next big reveal came when Zeref was about to "die" (he's clearly not dead), and that was Zeref calling out the names of Igneel, Anna, Layla, Mavis, and Natsu. To all of you who thought that Layla had no significance to the plot, I say SUCK IT! I TOLD YOU SO! ^_____^ Now, I'm really interested in seeing what kind of connection she has with Zeref. And who the hell is Anna? I literally can't wait to find out! :D
Rants and Raves
- Chapter cover! Jenny as a stripper, sorry, dancer made my year. :D
- Natsu's secret technique being something Igneel passed down. Makes more sense this way.
- The secret technique just being another "mode."
- The reasoning behind the technique being able to kill an immortal seems flawed as well. But maybe I just misunderstood it. :P
