----------------------------------------
Very minimalists title page for the penultimate chapter. Nice to see everything go more or less as planned. Acnologia smashed to pieces by everyone's combined efforts. Natsu with his powerful puunch on the inside, Fairy Sphere on the out. Good to see Warrod again too, though Mira and Lisanna hugging was my personal favorite panel. XD Anywho, the slayers are back and all seems right in the world. All that's left now is the extra long final chapter.

Acnologia is no match for the power of friendship

Fairy Tail's final chapter will be 48 pages long. Chapter 545 entitled "Irreplaceable Friends" https://twitter.com/yonkouprod/status/885393699202408450

this manga will be more memorable for me if it has a bittersweet ending, 1 more chapter to find out

Natsu is the King

Not a bad ending I guess, it's such a shame the series was tarnished by the last arc.

All in all it's not a terrible manga but this could have been done a lot better.

At least Acnologia died in away that was acceptable for someone of his power and Lucy actually being the one who ends it (and Natsu) and not plot killer Erza.

3/5- Hey! The exceeds! Remember The Edolas Arc? Haha.

To be honest, I kinda expected the final battle to end this way with a "power of feelings/friendship" attack. Looks like Natsu gets to be the first and only Dragon Slayer kill a dragon. I know everyone gave him the power to do so but it was by his fist regardless. I also loved that Natsu said he doesn't need to be a king, that's a good line.

I thought it was super cool that Meredy used her link magic to save the day but that is probably the biggest ass pull I've ever seen. Since when can she link an entire continent's magic?! Based off my memory since it's been a real long time since she's been relevant but I've only ever saw her link with 2 people.

Anyways, final chapter next week...Despite how annoyed I am with how this last arc unfolded, I personally still love Fairy Tail. It's been part of my entire adult life up to this point. I started reading this when I was 19 in the Early 2009 and now I'm 27 (almost 28).

I'm going to feel a deep and sad void when this is gone but at least I can look forward to the anime whenever that returns.

Well it was good I guess. Well drawn chapter and it was the best possible way for Acnologia to die, considering how this arc has been. When you think about it, people died in this arc!!!! Villians of course but they actually DIED.

Sarcasm aside, that NaLu moment was so sweet. Damn, 48 pages next week. As much as I despise Fairy Tail tight now (because of the final arc) it's hard to say goodbye to something that you have read/watched weekly for so many years.

This was...pretty bad haha.
That was spirit bomb levels of nakama power up.
All these shounen final battles are so bad ;---; Like, I read shounen and enjoy it as a guilty feel good pleasure, but this is just bad.
Natsu saying I'm home was cute, but meh. The last few arcs were pretty bad :(
I'm guessing the final chapter will probably time skip shipping galore.
Oh well. Was a nice ride while it lasted.

It's basically the type of shounen where everything feels bad but its rather entertaining to some degree... But yeah the last few arcs with maybe one being an exception being terrible, and it hurts tho x.x

THis whole 20-30 chapters has been rushed soooooo much, i mean i like fairy tail and been followed it for the start.. and this was.. kind of.. a let down. and HARD FUCKING letdown.. mashiro has been hyped everyone soo much about this and we get this .. i .. i dont know how to feel.. and going down all cause of "the power of friendship" im sorry but this felt.. too cliche ;-; i wanted something more of a fight,,
best part maybe was when they came back and the page with lucy and natsu (that position tho.)

this last episode better be something good.. breathtaking.!
cause MAL is doing there job for once.

Well thanks to Meredy, Acnologia was defeated gang bang style. The whole continent and their feelings ganged on him, which giving the narrative of the story makes sense. Which I don't know why everyone problem is, Fairy Tail has always an uplifting series about friendship, not a shonen battle series. And need I remind how Dragon Ball Z ended, so that is okay, but this is unacceptable?

Anyway Fairy Tail is what is it, deal with it.

Well great to see all these callbacks to these old characters again, though a couple of these guys I don't remember, next to Shu and Wally, were these others two dudes and I don't know who they are. And Beth is alive I guess. And Meredy as always looked awesome.

Now than Acnologia is defeated, and everyone celebrated, Minerva and Kagura had this Street Fighter like high five, which I thought was hilarious, and of course Elfman and Evergreen got their little moment. Of course Natsu fell into Lucy's boobs, of course he did.

Next chapter, 48 pages, no more fighting, the part of Fairy Tail I love the relationships, let's see who ends up with who, and probably in this epilogue we probably get a massive time skip towards the end, if we go 10 or 20 years ago, well Makarov still be alive? Well we see Natsu and Lucy's kid, and everyone else kids. I am excited for that.

That was ....bad and predictable as hell. Acnologia's defeat is exactly what I pictured and went the way it did.

I wonder if they will reveal anything for the final chapter. As it's double the length, they'll probably resolve everything.

And in the end, all it took to defeat Acnologia was a one-shot nakama power up punch, after previously not being able to even touch him. That's pretty much what I expected in terms of how the fight would end.

Nothing much to say here really, it was basically the typical "Fairy Tail winning through nakama power" thing that we've seen time and time again. It was a bit nice to see a bunch of old characters though.

All that's left is to get through 48 more pages, which I'm almost certain will consist of a timeskip showing that all the ships that have been teased for years have sailed, and they'll most likely all have kids.

I mean I won't defend the fact that those two arcs are garbage and that will not be ignored. I guess its the fact that I expected it compared to others for them to do the usual thing... it isn't ignoring the flaw but it's more of not minding it that much compared to others.

I'll still give FT the benefit of the doubt that there were enjoyable moments but overall as a Shounen series it falls off. General? Not much I guess.

1/5 voting is taking over the poll LoL XD

Well, my personal rating is 4/5. Though of course the latest arc defend too much on nakama powaa, it's still enjoyable. Besides, if nakama powaa disappear from FT, we can't make a joke out of it anymore right? XD

And of course my personal best moment is when Natsu fell on Lucy, at that time I was like "just kiss already like some cliché scene in other anime!!!!" Even though I know that won't happen Lol XD

The end battle is over with one big punch (as expected) but it was better than bleach. At least the last battle in FT is easy to understand while I really can't understand what happened in bleach's last battle.. Maybe my IQ is too low to understand it..? Lol XD

Waiting for One Piece last battle next! ^v^

Even the central theme of his manga, true power is friendship and whatnot, Mashima managed to screw it up. It would have been way more logical, enthralling and symbolic to have the seven dragon slayers perform a combined attack with each element represented, not to mention it would have been a perfect set up for great paneling, but I guess even something this obvious eludes Mashima's imagination. Instead we get Natsu stealing the spotlight for himself yet again throwing yet another Fire Punch and that's all she wrote.

If you're going to bullshit your way out with friendship power everytime, at the very least commit to it. Go all out for the finale for fuck's sake. Natsu comes up with names for his attacks all the time and we don't even get that for the final technique? Come the fuck on. Being able to make the end of a 500+ chapters shonen manga this underwhelming is seriously nothing short of extraordinary at this point.

But did you SEE that NaLu scene though? Yeah that definitely redeemed the chapter, no doubt. What a masterpiece.

Very disappointed with the ending of the fight was very predictable but guess that was hoping something better for the finale, while other helped the real Hero was Meredy because without her Acnologia would had escaped and possibly killed all of them (of course that never happened) but still.

Acnologia was basically invulnerable to any attacks magical or physical, yet Natsu punch had him desintegrating, he did what everyone in the past and present including the Great Igneel was unable to, kill the Black Dragon King.
Was actually hoping to see which Dragon gave Acnologia his magic, a fond memory perhaps.

I don't want to sound like a hater but the nalu moment seems very forced, I mean of all the places to land Natsu land right in top of Lucy.

Wow, they took the power of friendship meme literally... I really don't want to dislike this manga, but it pretty much doesn't leave me another option.

The only thing left I'm looking forward to would be some nice last momens of the Fairy Tail members.

Obviously Fairy Tail. I mean Tite Kubo was forced to end Bleach by Jump. But, Hiro Mashima had all the time for himself to create an epic final arc and he doesn't give a fuck. He goes for the typical good old Fairy Tail way of one shotting opponents. What a wanker!

I read this on KissManga, and literally, chapter's 543's comments were all about how the power of friendship would prevail and Acnologia would go down in one punch. Then chapter 544's comments were like; 'Sigh, I knew it' and 'We all knew this was gonna happen.' Honestly, the end was really anticlimactic. I know it's been dragged on for quite some time, but, really, there could've been a better build up. One chapter to work this out Mashima.

Couldn't even give Acnologia a dignified death.. just a lame punch and he disintegrated, like what the fuck happened to no magic can harm him? that fairy sphere was utter bullshit as Acno's ability should allow him to absorb those magic and the combined power in Natsu's hand. He pretty much lost by a normal lame punch if that was the case.

It went exactly the way everyone thought it would. I'm not even disappointed anymore, I'm halfway checked out. Fairy Tail was always about Nakamaship and Natsu punching his way to Victory. It was formulaic and predictable but a fun read, so I just rolled with the punches. This isn't fun anymore, it's funny, and not in a good way. I hope he has Natsu marry Erza just to put the cherry on top of this
