What's going on this week, guys? Are we expecting a chapter sometime today/tommorow, only I haven't come across any spoilers and no one's comented on here for a few days?

It just says "to be continued" but doesn't list a date of the next expected release. Strange.

well, usually it comes out today but i heard somewhere that sometimes it comes out on either sunday or monday.

Well there was a delay in the Shounen Jump releases that could have had a knock-on effect with the Fairy tal release, THe Hunter X Hunter Manga only got released today and usually that's a Thursday/Friday release.

Aw, poor Lucy, that was an very emotional chapter, we might hate our own parents all we want, but in the end most of us cry when they die, well, MOST. Props for Makarov and the others pillaging the other guild, that's how you do it.

Looking at Romeo's age it pretty much confirms for me me the real purpose of the timeskip was to make Romeo/Wendy pairing viable, it would be a shame if everyone has a love interest apart from Wendy rght?

An emotional chapter, it's a shame that Lucy and her father didn't get to spend more time together, their only real moment was when she went to save the Guild her father was going to work at.

Looks like Fairy Tail are once again back on the map.

Lol, while this is possible, it would be pretty cheap for Makitteno to pull a whole timeskip just for that.

Well, that was a really lovely chapter from Lucy's end of it and that most of the living arrangements are settled and all of that, the question is where do they go now? And by they, I mean Lucy, Natsu, and Happy. Another arc?

Awesome chapter, but who the heck are those dragon slayer guys? If they're somehow related to Natsu and Gajeel, why haven't we seen them before? And why does the Rogue guy look kinda like Zeref?

[alexander]

Okay, this is the actual chapter 259: http://www.mangafox....v25/c259/1.html
The previous one was chapter 258.

Pretty sweet chapter, there. Its was funny on how Gildarts was nominated as the new master, and then used his powers of that to renominated Makarov. Well, I guess they are going to have to somehow make-up seven years of experience to get back to the way things were prior to the island arc. Also, is that medicine woman, Wendy's Grandmother, from the looks of things?

Hey anyone besides me get the feeling from the chapter title on mangareader it was supposed to be about Lucy admitting to liking Natsu or something?

i so did! when i saw it i thought, okay there has to be some nalu in this chapter! but i was wrong. i loved that picture it was cute <3 did mashima actually draw this? i would think he did because he looked alot like his style of drawing or how it was drawn. but if it was fanart well done to whoever drew it!
edit: i found out this pic was in fact, drawn by mashima. (:

I think that's a spoiler drawing to promote the movie coming out next year, so looks like it will be an original movie not a recap.

Another good chapter, it appears FT has gone the opposite route, where usually a time-skip is to make the main cast more powerful, it's to make everyone else catch up and surpass them.

It's wierd about Grandine and the old lady, I originally thought they might be the same person, when Grandine and Igneel were first shown (Well Igneel we just saw a bubble for Grandine) in the anime the scene changes to show the old women walking in the market, at that point I was sure she must have used a magic spell that allowed her to talk to Igneel telepathically. though when you read the Manga this doesnt happen, so wasn't sure what to make of it.

It's episode 48 incase you are wondering, where in the Manga this conversation takes place after the fight with Gerard, (Chapter 101) it takes place after the battle with Lexus in the Anime. So was this coincidence? or did the anime makers give out spoilers, or did Hiro get the idea when he saw that scene?

[alexander]

^^Oh yeah, it's from the movie, you can see I even gave an link for the poster in the previous post.

Sorry I didn't see your last post, Anyway the Mangastream version is out, it makes it clearer what the poster is for, If I just saw the poster on it's own might have thought it was fanart for Natsu consoling Lucy after finding out about her father.

I think it's more like Mashima did some executive meddling (with good reason) with the anime. He probably had this chapter in mind around the time the episode aired. So that's why he asked Grandine's seiyuu to be the same person. He probably didn't think of throwing this particular twist in back then, but by the time he got the idea, it was too late and the manga was too far ahead to fit this in. So he opted to meddling with the anime to tie it in.

Now that I think about it, I think I should start watching the anime in case something like this happens again.
