Yeaaaah, Sting is pretty darned stupid in the manga, Mashima doing as much as he can for us to hate him. But at the same time not actually making him an interesting character =/
Anyway, Minerva seems pretty strong. Mira v Minerva perhaps? I feel like a lot of the strong people around have a matchup impending for Sabertooth (Sting v Natsu, Gajeel v ShadowguywhosenameIforgot, Laxus v Orga, Gray v Lostmakemagicguy), but Minerva hasn't pissed off a specific person, just all of the people hehe.
And I also feel Erza v mermaidleader will be her fight.

Those Sabertooth guys have been wrong about power levels before, wouldn't be surprised about it now. She does seem strong though.
100 chapters (or may even less) in the future, I wouldn't be surprised to see Sting and Rogue (and their respective Exceeds) end up in Fairy Tail. It's Gajeel all over again.

I am starting to feel really bad for Lucy... 
Second time she is getting destroyed

She didn't get destroyed last time though. This was a freaking plain beatdown. In the last fight, she felt bad because she lost. In this fight, she can't even do that since she's probably close to death.

I just realized something awesome. While Lucy did lose pretty badly, and the author had the chance to get a friendship no jutsu out there, he didn't. There was no "I've gotta show my friends blah blah blah proceed to win". It was her saying that she had to win for her friends, then losing... very badly. This may be a good step in the manga, and with the recent Wendy fight being drawn by strategy and skill, it looks like the manga fights are going up
|
Ha! Last chapter was awesome! I can watch Lucy getting the crap beaten out of her all day. My expression was probably close to Stings while reading this one.
Also. Is it me, or are the breasts in this manga inflating by the chapter? They are looking mighty comical at this point already.

the amount of boobs in this chapter is too damn high

rave was full of fan service too :p

More like Lucy setting the " trigger " for Natsu rage and friendship power.

lol, Mashima inflated breasts progressively in Rave Master as well iirc.

For having magic that comes from some celestial realm, the celestial spirits really aren't all that impressive. She needs a powerup, preferably defensive, that keeps her alive while she summons for the offensive. She also needs to obtain powerups for her summons because getting new keys doesn't make her more powerful unless she can summon more at once.

Natsu definitely will pissed at Minerva after that battle. I could start picturing Natsu rage against her in the next chapter and Minerva giving the snickering look at the next chapter in respond.lol Minerva going down sooner or later anyways to another FT mage not Natsu though. So many times Lucy has been used as the trigger for Natsu power.
Natsu won't be busy beating Sting since Sting will be easy for him.lol Since this will be Natsu first battle after the 7 year timeskip, no way in hell is he gonna lose unless the author decides to troll us.

New chapter out!
Well, it did seem a bit contrived but still epic as hell. + Show Spoiler +One problem I have though, is even though I like Gray, why would you not substitute him for Mira? Mira is probably stronger than Erza with the training she did, and since Natsu has super plot armor, Gray seems like the weakest choice. Also, that last bit about dragons and demons seems like it was really just tacked on there.

Waiting for a chapter every week is so frustrating >.<'' Hate this wait whenever stuff like tournaments happen.
|
The members of the new team were only selected because of fanservice. If you think about it, Juvia really should be somewhere in the top of the guild, and they merely brushed her off during the last chapter because "everybody" wants Lucy to be the focus.
Oh, and obvious set-up of Sabertooth vs Fairy Tail is obvious.
