Thats true, but I would still prefer that someone who isn't part of FT would defeat Zero especially because the OS members had the deepest connection with Zero. But yeah at least Midnight was defeated because Zero had a good counter magic.
I get it, but as long as the execution in the end is good, I am fine with what happened.
Like, if Gajeel just ends up defeating Zero through some bullshit, I would take back my words. But as of now, I think Mashima made the correct call.
Zero was hype, dude is amongst the OGs of the series at it's best.
My hope is that he destroys Gajeel as well, and maybe we get a 2v1 where Midnight gets back up and Gajeel+Midnight takes him out.
In that way, Midnight also gets his shine and narrative role with Zero/Brain, someone who was a father figure to him.
Remember that the only OS member that Brain truly cared for was Midnight - his prayer was that Midnight never lose. I hope that we get some narratives which address this aspect as well.
I like the fight against him and was probably even the best one from the whole sequel so far. ?
It was definitely a good fight by FT sequel standards. Though I am unsure if it's the best.
I would say it is top 3, with other contesters being Suzaku vs Selene, and Suzaku vs Natsu round 2.
I agree. But the thing is that OS/CS never had the chance to show us some good feats or the chance to win a battle. Mashima again used the FT members who will defeat the enemies and I don't like this.
Mirajane and the others could help Natsu etc against the F&6 members instead to help OS against the demons.
I tend to disagree.
Cobra and Racer did win. Cobra winning wasn't much of a shock, him and Midnight are the two main dudes in the group afterall. But Racer winning was a surprising turn of events, I didn't expect it.
I like it that OS got some wins out of this engagement, but that the villains still came out with more wins.
This is good. I like that Mashima mixed up things, instead of going with the predictable outcomes of all winning or all losing.
This is also good because Oracion Sechs losing without accomplishing
anything would've been extremely underwhelming writing - like, why introduce them just to have them lose to original OS?
I will 100% agree with your take on other FT members taking them out. It would be underwhelming and predictable crap too.
I would prefer some other guild mages involved, with some mix of FT mages. I personally would have Lyon, Mira, Laxus and Rouge involved.
Let this be an opportunity for characters aside from FT to shine too!
Almost 7!!! years since this Manga started and he still didnt had a fight lol.He must gotten so fucking strong that he would wash the DDSK´s
It has been that long huh!
I forgot lmao.
I don't know who he can come and fight at this moment.
Only hope is that the swordsman son of Ignia washes Erza and then Gildarts take over. I doubt it will happen tho, Mashima's golden girl need to look good!
I wonder where Suzaku is though, the only dude in the entire series who made Erza look like a jobber.
It was lol.I still think Gray vs Viernes was decent.And Gray being back as Natsus rival was good
The fight itself was ok.
The only problem is that this dude was prime Viernes !!!!
Replace Viernes with some dude from Ignia's guild, with everything else remaining the same, and I would've called this great.
Why did Viernes restrict his dragon form by the way? We may never know I guess lol.
