I do appreciate that they make a point to show Lucy’s growth in strength; since at a glance you can’t really tell. Plus the scene with Taurus and the marionette magic was just really touching, so either way it works.

I always found it kind of weird that Lucy starts the series with 3 of the Zodiac keys. I mean, there’s got to be TONS of celestial wizards? And there’s only 12 zodiac keys because they’re one of a kind? I dunno, especially because it’s such a long series I expected them to be much more scattered out. o.o

Natsu and Gray have my favorite kind of friendship. =u=

I forgot how much I adore Gray. ;o; Plus it’s nice that his backstory is made relevant so early on, since I’m now in this for the long haul.

And no, me liking Gray has nothing to do with him constantly stripping.
