Fairy Tail Ep. 167

[Buffalobiian]

HAHAHA, over 9000...

... that's awesome.

Both climax points this episode brought a fair bit of warmth to my eyes, but I feel Cana's had better build-up while Erza's was more a case of persevering through it rather than busting out a final beam attack. It was still cool though.

edit: Watched it a 2nd time. It's not that Cana's had better built up, it was just shorter and not filled with filled with less cannon fodder (quattero puppy?) than the 1vs100 fight. Tension for both fights both rose when the "final" soundtrack starts playing.. and were done equally to the same degree.

The OP also suggests that they'll be distilling FT down to just one team, which makes complete sense. What doesn't is that Gray gets while while Mirajaine doesn't. If that was based on power, I'd be pretty confused. It'd better be because she gets hurt or something.

also edit: The carving in the OP also suggests that a woman "fairy?" is required to stop the Arcnologia dragon. I'm going to say that that's the power concealed underneath Fairy Tail's building, which would more or less have some connection with the First Master.
