Flame Dragon Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 http://mangastream.com/read/fairy_tail/31607823/1 Is good. Just wish the chapter didn't jump around as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Roxas Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 You're thinking of the Silver Keys. Platinum Keys would be above the Gold Keys, so I doubt there would be those. I'm curious if there's a Chinese Zodiac set of Keys, since I found it a bit too coincidental that Kawazu was a chicken, Yomazu was a dog, and both of them worked for Zoldeo!Capricorn. I don't particularly mind chapters that jump around. Yes, not much happens, but it actually shows multiple scenarios, eliminating the risk of glossing over them like with Ultear's fight. In my opinion, Cana lost her chance to become a S-Class mage in this chapter. She doesn't deserve a promotion if she's going to resort to such underhanded techniques.

And I don't mind it jumping that much, since as you said we get to see a little form everyone. I'm thinking she's trying to protect Lucy, and that's why she put her asleep.

Tentacruel Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 What I'm saying is, it's a Shonen Manga, of course there are some super rare Platinum keys that are more powerful than Gold Keys out there somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Roxas Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Ophiucus can be the Platinum Key, since I think there are 75 Silver Keys, since when you throw in the 12 Zodiac Keys and Ophiucus, you get the 88 constellations. 75 is also a nice number in my opinion. However, I think the Ophiucus is the Spirit King. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flame Dragon Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 (edited) Nice twist on voodoo dolls. The chapter was good and had some nice fan service cause really, it's Lucy. Yay fan service. We also got some character shipping. I like shipping. Edited March 16, 2011 by Flame Dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, that was a rather creative use of voodoo dolls. As for the fanservice, anyone who reads the magazine Fairy Tail comes from in Japan should be desensitized to it by now, thanks to a certain other popular series running in there. As such, Mashima can get away with that much, since it's literally nothing in comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burnpsy Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 What other series is that? This one: Its new volumes are always in the top 5 in sales, not counting the Limited Edition printings, so it's definitely popular, whether you've heard of it or not.

Phantom Roxas Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 I was actually thinking of Air Gear, but Negima is definitely pretty hard to top. Kain's magic is okay, but he's definitely my least favorite. Rustyrose is the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnpsy Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 (edited) Oh... that... >____> Sounds like you've heard of it. This is normally the part where I ask either what you've heard about it or how far you've read before dropping it like a lot of people, but that would be going off-topic. Basically, nearly anyone who has read it until the point where the harem stuff isn't as prominent anymore would report that when they see a fanservice scene in other mangas or in later Negima!, they don't even notice the fanservice anymore until someone points it out. That's how far the early Negima! took it. It's the same writer as Love Hina, after all. EDIT: Air Gear is in Weekly Shounen Magazine. Fairy Tail and Negima! are in Weekly Shounen Sunday. Both are published by Kodansha, but it's a different magazine. Edited March 16, 2011 by burnpsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentacruel Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 It's the same writer as Love Hina, after all.Wow, didn't know that. Tbh, I'm not too much into ecchi stuff, so I might steer clear, but at the same time, it sounds fairly entertaining. I don't like Love Hina that much, so I'm not sure if I would enjoy the series or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnpsy Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Wow, didn't know that. Tbh, I'm not too much into ecchi stuff, so I might steer clear, but at the same time, it sounds fairly entertaining. I don't like Love Hina that much, so I'm not sure if I would enjoy the series or not. Actually, about that... When he wrote that manga, he wanted to try his hand at shonen, but his editor wanted another Love Hina from him. So he wrote that manga by making it LOOK like another Love Hina and tossed in HEAPS UPON HEAPS of foreshadowing in there during that part, then pulled off what was probably the best-executed Genre Shift ever, gradually moving over to making combat the focus to the point that it was solidly into the combat shonen manga genre before his editor noticed. See the spoiler in my sig for a visual example of that. Basically, if you can get past what he used to fake out his editors, chances are you'll enjoy the plot. I like it because it's one of the few combat-focused manga I see with a solid plot. The main issue people see is that every major arc so far has doubled the length of the manga, which only matters if you're reading it weekly. It's 321 chapters in right now, so a new reader wouldn't notice until they caught up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Kain's magic is okay, but he's definitely my least favorite. Rustyrose is the best.Yea he isn't that cool. But it was interesting watching him go from a bumbling idiot to a competent opponent.

That's how far the early Negima! took it. It's the same writer as Love Hina, after all.Wow, that kind of scares me. Personally I like a little fan service thrown in every now and then. To much kind of hurts it for me. Actually, about that... When he wrote that manga, he wanted to try his hand at shonen, but his editor wanted another Love Hina from him.
