3 FT Erza and Eileen 4-6

*SPOILERS* FDK and Alveraz arcs. And Erza's origins-Obviously (Which are really fucked up!) Basically every arc, including a major death at the end. 😭

If you haven't been reading the manga, you won't know any of it, and it contains serious spoilers... So if you haven't kept up with Mashima, I recommend you don't read this until you've caught up. Or read this and spoil the whole thing. Your choice...

Country Denmark's birthday tomorrow!

I was rewatching Oracion Seis yesterday.
I've got a couple of things to say before FT ends.

Am I the only one who thought that Wendy and Jellal might be long-lost siblings when we first saw S2? Because of their hair, and Jellal saving her life before. Plus the whole delivering her to CaitShelter thing. Only one?
But now it makes sense why Natsu kinda remembered Wendy and why Wendy treated him like a big brother almost straight away-because they had faint memories of being together 400 years in the past.
So many tiny clues, Mashima. It's kinda fun to go back and pick them all up... 😊

And on that note: Can I just say-Dragon Force is fucking AWESOME!

How did the council know Jellal was even there?! Lahar said their "true objective" was Jellal. He's only been 'awake' (because technically, he wasn't dead) for less than a day. Who told them he was awake, so they could capture him? Also, typical government. They come to collect the baddies AFTER they've been defeated.

I really hope we have a reunion scene with Wally and Richard. (I can't remember if we have or not... I don't think so. I think we've just seen Millianna from ToH in GMG.) Need Wally and Richard scene! #PotatoReunion!

WARNING: LAST TWO ARE SAD
"It was the colour of your hair." . . . 😫 JERZA FEELS! (Didn't even notice I had already said this in the rant... Oh well. It still deserves a mention.)

In epi 66, at 8.03, Ichiya-sama says "I am Ichiya, of Blue Pegasus! I will fulfil my duty to the end!"
. . .
😢😭😭
Foreshadowing at it's very best. 350 chapters before.

This rant was written before I read chapter 536. So I didn't know it would end, and frankly, I can't be bothered/really don't want to change it. And the fact that I wrote all of it before I knew what was going to happen, and I was/still am so proud of that last sentence that I don't want to accidentally fuck it up.
Everything below this line had been written before the 16th of May.

One thing I don't like about Fairy Tail is that Mashima hypes up his characters so much. Take Eileen.
We have all this information shoved down our throats that she's one of the best Spriggan (Spriggans?), the strongest woman in Alveraz. Sure, she is nearly level with Acno, and she can relocate all of both FT's and Zeref's forces, but when it comes down to it...
Erza and Wendy are fighting her pretty well. They aren't winning, but they aren't losing either. And that's only two people.
But then Eileen delibrately swaps her body for someone weaker than her. (Sorry Wendy, but there is no way you could have beaten her if you were alone. Although you're a Dragon Slayer, Erza is Titania. Enough said.) Stupid. You don't give the opposition an advantage like that! She may be called the strongest magic-wise, but she's definitely not tactical-wise. She did that just because she wanted a human body. Which, by the way, didn't work.
Then, when she gets back into her original body, she just... gives up... because she... can't... hurt... Erza.
