Fairy Tail 352 see’s the end of the fight between Natsu and the Bird. After Gray releases the ice trap, they don’t spot any flame when Wendy realises that there are still some residual flames left. They see that the altar has a very small flame left. Natsu realises this and quickly directs the bird towards the fire as well as attacking that spot with everything he’s got. We see a massive reveal that the Eternal Flame is in fact Atlas Flame!

Fairy Tail 352 begins with the flame itself not being there after Gray removes the Ice on it. Everyone realises that what has just happened is impossible, Carla mentions that it could have already been gone before it was frozen, Gray blames himself and won’t be able to help the giants in any way. Flare mentions that such a flame that had been burning for centuries has gone out, and the village could be doomed.

Wendy shouts at them telling them that it’s not gone, she can still feel strong residual thoughts, Lucy spots the altar, in there is a very small flame which is still going. Wendy shouts that Natsu is the only one able to restore the flame, which he’s quickly told while he fights the Bird creature.

The bird and him keep going at each other, Natsu holds the bird and flings it, but it uses another eye technique allowing him to create a laser like attack which gets Natsu, it then goes towards the villagers, however Natsu quickly engages his fire-breathing technique. He uses a villagers head to jump himself off from, then hits the bird with such high-speed, using his Brilliant Flame, he gets the bird on the altar.

Natsu then engages all his attacks from fire attacks to ones which do a lot of damage such as the Dragon Slayer’s Secret Art, Crimson Lotus Exploding Flame Blade! Even Minerva and Erza notice the ruckus in which Natsu is making, Lucy notices that he’s going overboard once more.

The bird is practically burnt now, everyone quickly notices that the flame is clearly back now! Flare cries in front of it while mentioning that the Guardian Spirit is back! Natsu, Lucy, Wendy and Gray all notice that they’ve seen this before. They clearly now know that the flame is not just an ordinary flame. They mention that it was him all along! Atlas Flame appears, he mentions to Natsu that it’s been 400 years, calling him the Son of Igneel! Fairy Tail 352 ends here.

A great chapter, even I didn’t know that this flame could be Atlas Flame, a reader (M.K.) had mentioned this a while ago to which he was clearly on the ball. I had an idea that it could have been Atlas Flame but wasn’t too sure. Can’t wait for next week’s Fairy Tail 353, titled “The Dark Magic’s Purification” to which it seems like the ice will be wiped out and Giants back.

Fairy Tail 353 introduces us to an awesome character called Silver, he’s been described as the Demon Slayer, just like Natsu as a Dragon Slayer but for Demons. He was the man to which froze the whole village, however Atlas Flame remembers everything and uses it’s last remaining power to ignite it’s warmth into everything and everyone allowing for the ice to quickly disappear, due to this Atlas Flame’s residual presence fades while the giants are back.

Fairy Tail 353 begins as everyone realises that it’s the dragon from 400 years ago, Atlas Flame describes that for 400 years he’s been able to burn strong, Natsu asks if he’s alive while Atlas Flame denies this. Wendy has just used her Milky Way spell which brought him to appear. He’s memory is still a little jumbled up. The ice must have caused this to happen.

Wendy explains that residual thought may be based on strong will but it’s still very fragile magic. By being frozen part of their memory may have been damaged. Atlas Flame remembers the world being covered in ice, Flare asks what had happened. Atlas Flame begins to explain that he had mistaken a guy for something else, a single human had changed the world to ice.

Gray asks if it was done by an ice wizard, Atlas Flame explains that this man thought that he was a demon, thus he froze the entire village to eradicate him. He was an Exorcist Mage, a Devil Slayer! It seems like there is another type of slayer magic, from Dragon Slaying and God Slaying it seems. Gray realises that this is the reason why Gray’s try on his opponent a while ago worked.

Atlas Flame mentions that his memory is a little foggy, Flare explains that he is the Guardian of the village, the Flame of the Giants! She gets down and begs Atlas Flames for his powers to save everyone. Atlas Flame begins to remember it all, his tears and pain are the village’s sorrow and misfortune. He mentions that he will set the village free using his spirit and fire from Igneel’s son. He describes himself as the Fire Dragon and Guardian Dragon of the Giant Village.

It gets really warm, it begins to heat up, he mentions that he has begun remembering everything, Igneel, Dragon King Acnologia and Zeref. He even mentions that he remembers the most vile dark magic from the book of Zeref, E.N.D! 400 Years ago, Igneel was unable to destroy E.N.D!

It shines bright and all the villagers are beginning to turn back to normal. A large Giant faces Minerva and Erza, as he mentions something about humans running around their village, Minerva begins to escape. Erza tells her that she mustn’t let Darkness corrupt her, she replies by saying that she’ll be the one to corrupt the world. Everything is turning back to normal.

Atlas Flames’ residual memories have completely vanished, everyone is happy to see that the village is okay but Flare cries for Atlas Flame’s as he’s just save everyone. Somewhere else a lizard like man calls Silver that he must go to the Headquarters as all members of the Nine Ghost Gate have been summoned. He tells him to relax, as the only thing he consumes are demons! This man, Silver is from Absolute Zero, a member of the Nine-Ghost Gate (Tartarus Kyuukimon). Fairy Tail 353 ends here.

That was certainly an awesome chapter, to see such an awesome power from just one man is awesome. It’s crazy to see that Silver is also a Slayer just like Natsu. It should be awesome to see Fire and Ice go up against each other in their fight. However can’t wait for next week’s Fairy Tail 354, titled “Effy Artis”.

Fairy Tail 354 shows the reunion between Flare and her Hometown as well as the very welcoming Giants calling her their own daughter. Flare shows that she’s indeed happy that she’s back and sad that she left them in the first place. Minerva returns to her guild’s HQ to notice that everyone has turned into little paper like patterns of humans, Kyouka Reiseiten shows up from Tartarus mentioning that they need soldiers to fight for their great plan.

Fairy Tail 354 begins with Natsu as well as the giants laughing as though they’re already best buddies. A Giant mentions that these little people saved them, while Gray mentions if should freeze them again. Erza asks what had happened in the village, it was completely frozen by some Ice Demon Slayer, they tried fighting back but were unable too as they don’t seem to remember much.

Erza figures out that all of this happened because the Ice Demon Slayer had made an error in his assumption. Gray mentions that they still don’t know what their motive was, he mentions that the Succubus guy said something referring to the Gates of Hell. Tartaros is quickly mentioned, Gray figures out that the attacker was probably from there. Carla mentions that none of this adds up. Natsu mentions that their job is done, while Lucy asks Flare has gone.

She hides behind a tree, the Giants hear her name and seem to have gotten angry, Lucy brings her out while the expressions on their faces don’t change. They look at Flare as she’s gotten bigger, however they’re still a lot bigger. They look at her face doubting her asking her how the outside world was. She mentions that it was a lot of fun as well as scary, they smile, the giants mention that is how it is no matter where you are, as long as you’re alive.

Whether she’s coming or going the Giant’s village will always be her home, independence is a good thing. The Giants collectively welcome her home then referring her as their daughter! She bursts into tears and smiles widely, Lucy notices that she’s never smiles this before and also begins to tear up. They spent the night partying until the sun rose.

At Succubus Eye HQ, Minerva returns to notice that everything has been trashed, there are small figures of humans lying around the floor, Minerva raises one when a person appears behind her, she mentions that her magic strengthens people, however the ones she sees on the floor are too weak and not worthy and thus return to that form. All of them returned to this form.

This person introduces herself as Kyouka Reiseiten, one of the 9 Demon Gate Members of Tartaros. Minerva quickly realises that she’s in trouble, she then mentions that she went to such trouble after what happened at the village, Kyouka mentions that she has no clue, while Minerva asks if Silver was the one to take the village down. Kyouka mentions that her power is to strengthen people. She mentions that in the future a battle will begins to which she’s received commands to gather troops.

Minerva mentions that her idea of gathering troops is by killing them, while Kyouka mentions that if they cannot withstand my reinforcement they’re not allowed to fight with her. Kyouka quickly refers to Minerva handling her, Minerva quickly tries to back off when she may be trapped in the magic which Kyouka seems to be using. Fairy Tail 354 ends here.

What an awesome chapter, it seems to be getting better and better as well as more and more interesting. Can’t wait for next week’s Fairy Tail 355, titled “Song of the Fairies” when we see even more awesome Fairy Tail goodness.

Fairy Tail 355 brings Fairy Tail back to Warrod to which they go to a hot spring created fully by Warrod Cken himself. The girls go in and forget to notice that Gray and Natsu aren’t there, when they do, they quickly go crazy to which Warrod  also joins in and tells them that he’s one of the Founding Fathers of Fairy Tail, he notices that Fairy Tail is Mavis’ dream which has come true by which all members can lean on each other. They also talk about E.N.D to which Warrod has no knowledge on, while he predicts that Tartarus may have the Book of Zeref! 

Fairy Tail 355 begins in Warrod’s house by which he is happy that he sent them Natsu mentions that it was easy, Erza mentions that she’s happy that there weren’t many incidents after what happened. Gray asks Lucy where the thieves are, to which she says they kicked them up high. Wendy mentions that they were surprised to know that Tartarus were involved. Warrod mentions that they should just let the senate investigate it.

Warrod mentions that it’s time for their payment to which they’re all surprised to see that he’s paying them with a potato. After a while it seems they’re going to get paid by a hot spring bath. Lucy, Erza and Wendy all go. They see that it’s marvelous with the view and how awesome it is. Erza mentions that she’s happy that Warrod knows secret of the Hot Spring.

Lucy gets in and notices that the spring is awesome, Erza mentions that it helps to rejuvenate a tired body and soul allowing them to face other things refreshed. Wendy worries for Gray and Natsu while Carla tells her to calm down. Natsu, Gray and Happy all show up, Lucy and Wendy quickly become shy as Natsu and Gray reveal that they were in there first.

Warrod also comes in, he mentions that it’s a unisex hot spring. Lucy asks them to go out for a bit until they’re ready. Natsu and Gray mentions that they’ve seen them naked before and it’s no longer wonderful thing. Erza quickly mentions that it’s not something they should lose their composure over, they’re all comrades there. She used to get into baths with Natsu and Gray all the time.

Natsu and Gray try to get out when Erza stops them, she mentions that she’ll scrub Natsu’s back for him. Warrod mentions that comrades are the best, he goes on to mention that he hasn’t yet told them yet that just like Mavis, he’s one of the founding Fathers of Fairy Tail, making him their grand senpai. They’re quickly shocked about this. They remember that Makarov had told them to do their best.

He mentions that he particularly requested Natsu and Gray for the reason that he felt nostalgic. After he met the young fairies his heart skipped a beat. The peace that Mavis sings about within Fairy Tail seems to have become true. Her spirit carries on, the spirit will become their successes and triumphs.

Mavis once said comrades isn’t simply a word. Comrades are about heart. It’s the unconditional trust in your partners. Mavis has also said that she’s happy for people to lean on them, as well as other people leaning on her. Lucy hears the voice and words that created Fairy Tail, and it has hit her and brings joys to them.

Natsu and Erza swap places, Natsu asks him if he knows anything about E.N.D and the demons, he mentions that it may be something to do with the Book of Zeref. Natsu mentions that if he had to do anything with E.N.D., he might be able to find Igneel. Warrod currently has no idea what’s going on. Warrod mentions that after hearing Tartarus, he remembered something, they know nothing about their guild, however they do know that they worship demons.

It seems to be a prophecy from the Four Heavenly Kings of Ishgal, it’s also a possibility that they may have the Book of Zeref. Natsu gets pissed off and begins to smash whatever he has in front of him, which is Erza, but he doesn’t notice. Gray tells him to stop when he notices that he’s pushed Erza off while her butt stacks up (doggy style) to which Erza gets pissed off and smacks him. Fairy Tail 355 ends here.

An awesome and funny chapter, however lots of bits which could make a lot of people think different from Fairy Tail. Nevertheless, it should be good to read next week’s Fairy Tail 356, titled “Tartarus Arc – Prologue”, it should be a good chapter as we’re being introduced to a new dark guild, this should be really interesting.

Fairy Tail, clearly the focus of the anime and possible the strongest team and guild in the entire world of the anime. From the fiery Natsu to the ice-cold Gray, from magical Lucy to chaotic Erza. We love them all, there isn’t much to say about how much we love to see them fight for what they love and care about, which is obviously their friends and family, as well as those who cannot defend for themselves. It’s just an amazing sight-seeing them fight together just like a family.

The awesome artwork above was drawn by JasmineBlack, whose done a magnificent job of creating such a wonderful image of all of them both happy and ready for any adventure. I’m sure if you’ve seen an episode, you’d agree how awesome and amazing their battles and passion can be. If you’ve yet to see this anime, I highly suggest you watch it!

Fairy Tail 360 begins the battle between Natsu vs Jackal (Jaguar in some translations). We see after only a short span of time that Natsu quickly begins his attack, he shows him whose boss. Jackal goes down but raises up when Natsu set in Jackal’s trap to which he explodes, fortunately he’s still in tact. Michello realises that what Tartarus could be planning refers to the White Inheritance and Faith, which are unknown at this point.

Fairy Tail 360 begins as Natsu and Jackal look at each other. Carla reveals that he’s from Tartarus and that he’s the one responsible for attacking the council members. Michello begins to get out even before Lucy says that he’s after him. Wendy mentions that they just need to leave it to Natsu and he’ll take care of everything.

Jackal does a spin to where he is which seems to have changed everything around them, wind wise. What he’s doing is creating a large explosion reaction all around the house, a span so large that it’s as far as the village. Everyone begins to scream and shout. Lucy mentions that the city does not have anything to do with them. Natsu jumps towards Jackal when he explodes Natsu to where he currently is. They see that it’s a direct hit, however Happy mentions that he’s okay because it’s a heat-based attack that Natsu can go against it.

Natsu sucks all the explosion around him  when Jackal notices what’s just happening. Out of nowhere, Natsu punches Jackal in the face he hits the floor and Natsu quickly goes towards the ground, Jackal escapes his next attack however Natsu entered the bottom of the house and he seems to be below him when Natsu uses his knee next to hit Jackal’s face. Michello witnesses this fight, in which he’s scared to see such a powerful mage in front of him.

Jackal is pushed back, when he mentions that Natsu is an interesting fellow and that he has something to tell him, however Natsu just keeps on bashing Jackal in the face with all his might. Natsu keeps on bashing and tells him that he’s only getting started. Michello says that he’s unbelievable. Natsu mentions that he was going to ask where their hideout location and objection was.

Michello thinks to himself, mentioning if their aim is “Faith”, then it would be a catastrophe. The “White Inheritance” that only a few members knew of, how would they have learnt about it. He then turns to mentioning that it would be better if they were to concentrate on hiding first. He begins to quickly leave to go to his safe place bringing Michelia with him.

Natsu mentions that he’d better not keep anything from them, he shouts that he doesn’t know a thing. Jackal gets up and mentions that he knows something, then mentions that he will spare him if he tells about something specific. Michello shouts at him mentioning that he doesn’t know a thing. Jackal then mentions that he’d rather die horribly then, Michello shouts for them to beat him up as he’s getting up.

Jackal gets up and tells Natsu that he needs to listen to people when they’re speaking. He then points at Natsu when Natsu’s arms and leg seem to be highlighted with some kind of marks to which Jackal mentions that his curse will explode whatever he’s touches.

Natsu tells everyone to back off from him when it begins to get glow, after only a few seconds, Natsu explodes, however it doesn’t seem like he’s going to get up anytime soon. Jackal mentions that he’s impressed that his body’s still there. Michello begins to squeal mentioning that he’s going to die. Jackal tells Michello if he hands over the information he’ll just give his granddaughter a horrible death and not kill her, he laughs. Fairy Tail 360 ends here.

A great chapter, what has happened to Natsu, he seems to have been knocked out from the explosion, what will Lucy and Wendy do now, will they be able to save Michello from a horrible death or will Natsu stand up once again. Can’t wait for next week’s Fairy Tail 361, titled “Two Bombs”.

Fairy Tail Author Hiro Mashima shows how he manages to create amazing artwork just from some basic Photoshop work. He tweets out a few pictures of how he does this. The work above is something that Hiro Mashima has just created, and it clearly looks amazing. If you like to find out how Hiro Mashima makes such work be sure to keep on reading.

Hiro Mashima begins by doing a sketch with line blue guide lines added.

He then turns that off in his colour mixer.

After this Hiro Mashima figures out the colours he wants to use in the image, such as how he’d like to represent the black dress in the image.

Next up the highlights and shadows on the hair are added.

Even if it seems like rough work, the work he’s finished with looks very impressive on anyones eyes.

Hiro Mashima has created a few other awesome artwork which he has posted to his Twitter profile. They are below.

Fairy Tail 361 sees the return of Natsu on the battlefield, this time he seems to have a way in which he can use the explosives from Jackal and just eat them up. He does this and shows Jackal that he won’t be affected by such a technique anymore. Jackal chases down Michello and makes Lucy choose from Michello and a woman to which she’d rather see saved, Natsu arrives and smacks him.

Fairy Tail see’s Michello run as fast as he can, Jackal tries to chase him down by Wendy and Lucy try to stop him. From which Wendy uses her roar to in order to push him back, however he uses his explosion to negate the roar. Scorpion appears by Lucy and uses he’s sand buster however again it’s explodes.

Jackal mentions that the magic in which they consider is nothing more than the top-tier to their power. He moves his arm exploding everything around that area as well as pushing Wendy and Lucy back. Jackal goes away from there, Lucy mentions that they cannot let him go away and thus Lucy goes towards him with Wendy taking care of Natsu.

Michello appears in the village mentioning and asking people that he needs to be hid somewhere. He mentions that he’s a former magic council member, he’s protected them for his whole life and now is their turn to protect him. Out of nowhere, Jackal appears to which it scares Michello and he farts. HE gets in the water when he mentions that he doesn’t know anything.

He just wants to spend his last days with his grandchild, Jackal mentions that he’s left her back. Lucy appears and tries to bring a companion out however she hits a landmine to which if she moves she’ll explode. People around their notice her, she tells them to go home. Jackal raises Michello from the water in a circular water thing, the same is done to an innocent person.

He mentions that they’re both ticking bombs to which Lucy is told that he’ll only kill one of them, and thus Lucy has to choose. Both the girl and Michello begin to cry and say that they’re both worth more, however Lucy is unable to choose. However out of nowhere, Natsu arrives and smacks Jackal in the face, at this point he mentions that he’ll choose him to kill. The magic around Lucy and the water is undone and they’re both free.

Both are saved, however Natsu smacks Michello mentioning that he is annoying and thus needs to take a nap. Jackal mentions that he touched him again as well as being thick-headed. Natsu mentions that he understand his trick now. As his elbow begins to explode he places his mouth there to which he seems to show that the explosion has been minimized and this shocks Jackal that he’s been able to stop his attack. Fairy Tail 361 ends here.

What an awesome chapter, the fights are beginning to show which awesome characters they’re truly going to begin fighting. The true battle hasn’t yet begun but I know that once it has begun, hell will literally get loose. Can’t wait for next week’s Fairy Tail 362, titled “Natsu vs Jackal”, it should be awesome!

Fairy Tail 362 shows how powerful Fairy Tail really is, from how underestimated they’ve really been by the demons and Tartarus. It’s impressive how Jackal’s transformation was stopped and neutralised within just a few moments. Unfortunately, the village was not harmed and still stays. They haven’t learnt much after Jackal had exploded.

Fairy Tail 362 begins as a scared Jackal mentions that there is no way in which he’s able to stop his attacks. Jackal asks who the hell he is, Natsu runs towards him smacking him and at the same time he says that he’s Natsu. Jackal laughs mentioning that he’s going to explode, which he does however Natsu blocks it and mentions that he’s got used to the attack.

Jackal begins to get pissed off and thinks that he cannot be a human as he’s so powerful. He begins to transforms until he reaches his full form of which he’s turned into a werewolf. His first attack is blocked by Natsu however there is a large explosion. Natsu mentions that he’s trying to destroy the town. A second attack is also blocked however the surrounding is smashed.

He mentions that humans are not capable of besting demons like them, Nastu notices if the reason for them fighting is their difference from humans. Natsu mentions that they’re different and that they fight for the sake of their injured friends, no matter if their opponents are humans, demons or even gods. An attack later Natsu asks Laxus’ power to which he uses his Lightning Flame Dragon’s Firing Hammer and kicks Jackal back into his place.

He hits a wall and falls back down. Natsu has also fallen after such an attack, he mentions that he’s won and that he’s beat him. Carla mentions that they need to get information out of him. Jackal, still breathing, mentions that he really did lose and that this is the first time he’s lost. He says sorry to Kyoka and mentions that it’s not that bad since he’s taking the whole village with him.

Everyone notice that they’ll also be killed, it seems that Jackal himself is the actual explosive and he can’t stop it. He laughs when Lucy asks what they should do. Quickly, Happy appears and holds Jackal and pulls him up as quickly as he can, Wendy tells him to quickly get away from him. Happy tells him that they would never lose, when Jackal is about to blow up! They’re upset that he may be gone, however Happy pops up with his hair also like Natsu’s, all puffed up like an afro. Fairy Tail 362 ends here.

What a cool chapter, it was known that Natsu would quickly win this match, however it was totally unexpected that Happy would even go as far as to experience Jackal’s explosion first hand, good thing he didn’t die! Can’t wait for next week’s Fairy Tail 363, titled “The Demon Notebook”.
