Crushing your eyes and still bringing out a beatdown. And Oracion Seis getting even more fleshed out is always something to look forward to. Also, liking where FT is going so far, with the ex-prez | ||

BAKA BAKAKAKAB Why wouldn't he? He's like "look I have this amazing power. You guys could really benefit from my power, which is awesome". And they're all like "well shit, we're villains right? It'd me much harder to lose if we keep this guy around. Better kill him for plot". | ||

I would think he would know how to counter it beforehand considering he fought the same guy with Erza before. He is supposed to be resourceful/smart so I am surprised he didn't find out a better counter since traditionally illusion based magic becomes weaker when you are aware of it. | ||

You have a guy with a great and unique magic working for you and completely fine with transferring it to your enemy and continue working for you. He even suggested it. Why would you not take that option? This is literally just villains being dumb for the sake of plot. What if Face backfires or stop working or whatever? The only thing you accomplished is to remove one of your own. They didn't even bother to be like "okay transfer it" and then lock him away afterwords in case he's needed. And I remind you, this is a man who betrayed the rest of humanity for his own profit, and is content with working for you even though one of the strongest guilds will be coming after them. Is this really a man you think you can't trust? | ||

I know at the start of the show they introduced him as being stronger than Natsu but all of his fights in the anime involved him getting stomped. He reminds me of Usopp in that there could and should be potential there but it never really shines through. And what happened to the iron dragon slayer guy? He was all over the anime but I don't recall seeing him in any of the manga that I've read over the last few months. I have to agree with the power levels being problematic, too. The only person that seems to have a stable power level is Gildarts. Stable as " way way way higher than anyone else so the author doesn't even need to quantify it " ? :D | ||

This is a guy who's betrayed the rest of humanity even after someone came and attacked, coming from one of the strongest guilds. He's still like "whatever, still helping you guys and being really chummy with you guys". And, to try and bring this point home, tell me this: why did they kill him? What exactly made that seem like the best option, when he said they could transfer it over and just kill that person. I'm telling you, they killed him because they're terrible villains, who don't like to plan in case stuff happens. Now I'm starting to wonder why I originally made this argument. Complaining Shounen villains are shounen villains. | ||

Complaining Shounen villains are shounen villains. because A) they never planned to let him live and B) this way is much faster the only reason they needed him was to help them find face and the keys, they already know where face is and he has the last key | ||
