Fairy Tail (Season 2): A parallel enigma, towards Edolas

And so, I continue the discussion about what happens right now in Fairy Tail. ^^


After the Nirvana problem has been averted, Wendy & Charles were welcomed to Fairy Tail, and a few filler episodes showed up to reveal some joyful events, like the Rainbow Cherry Blossom Festival and the Bingo game. Then Gildarts returned for a visit to the guild HQ and Natsu was so happy to meet him again. He hoped that Gildarts' surprise would be a happy one, only to find out that instead of Igneel, a black dragon appeared. Natsu was determined to look for it, but there's a problem: where and how to start?


And that's where the real problem begins, and it all began when a simple rain shower suddenly turned deadly.

Wendy and Mystogen reuniting after 7 years
Wendy has come face-to-face with Mystogen (mistaken to be Jellal because they look exactly alike), and he revealed that Magnolia and the rest of Earthland will be in danger because he failed his mission. The magic in his world has been deteriorating, and because of his failure, nothing would stop it.  Despite his warnings, Wendy rushes into the HQ to warn everyone, but it was too late. A huge hole appeared from the thundering dark skies, and the Sky Dragon Slayer could only watch helplessly as everything disintegrated in a flash.

Wendy couldn't believe her eyes as she sees the HQ vaporizing

And so, she was left alone, or was it? Natsu had emerged from the rubble unharmed, so did Happy and Charles. To answer the multi-dollar questions, the she-cat explained that they’re from Edolas, the parallel world different from Earthland, and that the destruction brought upon Magnolia was known to be the hyperspace magic, Anima, a way to restore the lost magic which was now in limited quantities. The Fire Dragon Slayer suggested that they go to Edolas for answers, and so they did as they ascended towards the hole, the portal leading there.

But because of the severe magic limitations, Happy and Charles couldn’t use their wings and the group had to walk on foot. After a series of shenanigans as lost travelers, they finally found the Edolas version of Fairy Tail. The first impression whey they first stepped in was that the members there were the polar opposites of their Earthland versions, only to be spotted by the Edolas version of Lucy.
Uh oh... busted!!
Then there was another threat in the form of the Fairy Hunter, who enjoyed killing mages. That’s when Natsu’s team realizes that the Fairy Tail there was an outlaw guild because of lack of magic power, and the government’s law to disband the guilds, so the headquarters had to be teleported to somewhere safe. In case you’re wondering who the Fairy Hunter is, it’s none other than the Edolas counterpart of Erza Scarlet, Erza Nightwalker, one of the generals of the royal army.

Well, that’s all I can narrate, so you have to watch the rest to find out how this big catastrophe will be solved.

Till next time! ^^
