Gajlevy gives me life

Omg that new chapter! First of all, GaLe for the win. Second, I knew Bradman had something weird about him. He's so damn cool! I hope Gajeel kisses Levy next chapter, can't wait!

Okay, freakin' Bradman, jeez. I just read that chapter for the third time, and he has such a cool power! His "death aura" makes sense now, it's anti-ethernano particles that emit from his body. Also, I really want some background on him now, I wonder if he's from the Books of Zeref. He must be insanely powerful if he can use all of the demon gates' curse abilities. I'm officially a fangirl of Bradman, that's the kind of magic (or curse, I guess) that I'd like to use if I could.

I loved Gajeel's resolve too, he's really grown as a character and it makes me happy.

I'd like to bring something else up about August specifically. In the new chapter, he said, in response to Brandish asking what happened to God Serena, "He's here with me". Number one, that rune thing on his arm looks really cool, I'm curious what that represents. Number two, I have a couple theories about what August meant. He could mean that he somehow switched God Serena out for a decoy and used spacial magic to hide him in another dimension. Who says August can't see into the future, so maybe he predicted Acnologia's attack. My other theory is that he somehow absorbed God Serena's soul into his body and stole his Dragon Slayer magic. Either way, something's up. Also, I'm curious whether August's knowledge of magic extends to curses as well. That'd be cool if he could use Bradman's curses against Natsu in battle.

Okay, so I'd also like to mention something about Irene. She obviously must be powerful if other Spriggans say she's about equal to August in power, which is said to be greater than even Zeref's magical abilities. I know a lot of people are thinking that her magic has to do with changing the climate. I say they're wrong, and here's why. I will admit that her presence clearly changes the climate around her, but that's probably not the whole extent of her magic. To me, it seems like at the end of Chapter 486, she's charging up some attack or spell in order to prepare for Acnologia. At the end of the chapter, Zeref seems pretty afraid of Irene's little personal mission, indicating that she's not someone to be messed with. My prediction is that she has something similar to Jellal with Heavenly Body Magic. Either way, there's no possible way that changing the climate could put her equal to August's power.

Also, I'd like to make a small prediction and say Gildarts will step in before August gets the chance to destroy Natsu (I honestly don't have much faith in Natsu in his current state). It would be hype if Gildarts has unlocked some crazy new magic power since the one year time skip. It always seemed like Gildarts was stronger than even the Wizard Saints, so I wonder how he'd fare against the Wizard King himself. Also, it seems kind of strange to me that Rahkeid, the only Spriggan we haven't seen, hasn't been shown anywhere yet except for his shadow in Chapter 484. I have a feeling that he's one of the more powerful members or he has some special ability, considering that he's going to be the last Spriggan to be revealed. He's obviously bad news, since he's in a squad with Bradman and Irene. I have a feeling he'll appear next chapter since it looks like Bradman is basically done for. The only problem is that Crime Sorcière (the Oración Seis group) is the only group of wizards who are strong enough to take on a Spriggan.

It seems obvious to me that the titles of the recent chapters are counting down to something (The Fourth Guest, The Third Seal, etc.). Once it reaches one, something crazy is gonna happen, I know it. My prediction is that by then Cana will break the lacrima holding Mavis' body and she'll release Fairy Heart on Alvarez and Acnologia. I also have a feeling that there's gonna be some big character development that chapter, maybe even a prelude to the final battle. Another possibility is that Natsu might unlock his E.N.D form finally and totally annihilate Acnologia and Zeref. The final option I can think of is that Zeref and Natsu will make the big decision to team up and fight Acnologia together.
