A Fairy Tail Tier: Gildartz

Considering that there is no official tier list for Fairy Tail (and I don't foresee one) and despite the fact that any list I could make would at best be the result of fan-made speculation, I will make one! But it will take time. Perhaps a lot of time.

I'm gonna start with one of my favorite mages.

Gildartz is actually already hailed as being perhaps the strongest mage in Fairy Tail besides Makarov. However, does this make him Top Tier? To an extent.

If Makarov is S Tier, then Gildartz is definitely A Tier.

So my humble list starts like this.

S:

A: Gildartz Clive,

B:

C:

D:

E:

F:

G:

Nothing like the blank symbol of undeveloped freshness.

Although he hasn't been shown fighting yet, he did throw Natsu with one arm, and magic capable of destroying the things around a person is probably not something to toy with.

More on this later after I do some serious thinking!

DFO: Machinist!

At last!

Awakening was actually a piece of cake. Dane was right. Didn't wanna farm the terranites so i just bought everything off the auction hall.

It's rather tempting to just spend cash on nx. Only two more advanced avatars needed!

Only two more weeks left as Kansai boy. Hopefully the new driver fits in well and i didn't mess things up too much in the little time i've been working.

Saturday's always a difficult day recently because i have to fit a nap in...somewhere. Or at least that's the idea because i'd like to maximize my one night off but i usually end up falling asleep .-. too soon.

It's sort of unsettling, having awakened the mech. What next? Awaken the Blade Master? Just keep building characters? Is that all I do?

HAHA of course not.

I destroy people in pvp.

(sometimes)

This just in: The end of OneManga?

Per the site:

It pains me to announce that this is the last week of manga reading on One Manga (!!). Manga publishers have recently changed their stance on manga scanlations and made it clear that they no longer approve of it. We have decided to abide by their wishes, and remove all manga content (regardless of licensing status) from the site. The removal of content will happen gradually (so you can at least finish some of the outstanding reading you have), but we expect all content to be gone by early next week (RIP OM July '10).

So what next? We're not really sure at this point, but we have some ideas we would like to try out. Until then, the One Manga forums will remain active and we encourage all of you to continue using them. OMF has developed into a great community and it would be a shame to see that disappear.

You can also show us some love in this moment of sadness by 'liking' our brand new Facebook page. It would be nice to see just how many of you came to enjoy our 'better than peanut butter and jelly' invention.

Regardless of whether you stay with us or not, on behalf of the One Manga team, I would like to thank you all for your unwavering support over the years. Through the ups and downs you have stuck with us, and that is what kept us going.

As a certain Porky was fond of saying... That's all folks!

Time for me to go lay down and let this all sink in.

- Zabi

Nooooo!! haha.

Most importantly, I'm concerned as to where I will read Liar Game. Can't even find it offline >.>

TC: Every five minutes

It's sorta getting up there.

So every five minutes, I gain +1 Nerve.

Every ten minutes, I gain +5 Energy.

Every fifteen minutes, I gain +1-5 Happy.

It takes five hours for my energy bar to refill from zero. Ideally, I could maximize regeneration by logging in at least once every five hours. However, I am no longer interested in such dedication to a game. But I could be!

I suppose if I played more competitively it would be more of an interest.

I've decided to begin increasing my time awake this summer using polyphasic sleep! Hopefully it works.

I suppose that if i am day, then yuma is night. I'm up at 5am, and she's working past 10pm, but somehow in that little window known as dusk we usually manage to find time for each other. Although sometimes she's working at dusk too.

I'm glad for last night though (:

I awoke half-paranoid that Sarah had rolled over on to my side (I had been expecting it for some time) but then I saw it was yuma so I squeezed! And it was good.

Topsite: torn.com

It's not like I go on a lot of websites, simply because I don't think it's an efficient/safe use of time to be digging around aimlessly whether it's for business or pleasure.

But I did notice how much time I spend on TC!

A few years ago, TC started keeping track of your stats, so to be honest, there's probably even more time spent on there that it has recorded.

Just for kicks:

Attacks won: 431
Items bought from market: 78
People busted: 1074
Medical items used: 50
Heavy artillery finishing hits: 0 ):
Mails sent: 100
Criminal offences: 16554
Bounties placed: 0 Never really felt like bounty-ing someone
Total invested in bank: $6215085171 so poor D:
Items found: 3 and they were all junk!
Times travelled: 1 need to go to SA more.
Drugs used: 0 ssh dont tell anyone
Logins: 2880. Whoa.

It's been a good four years, and here's to many more!

OP: Boa Hancock

2nd favorite character methinks.

I think a large part of how a reader relates to a character has to do with the similarities in aspirations between the two. Boa is driven to never show weakness to anyone (except maybe her sisters, elder nyon, rayleigh + shakky, and luffy) again, and in that I can see my own motivation.

As far as beauty, it seems like Boa stands for beautiful perfection in the One Piece universe. Physically, you could say she's designed to the peak of attractiveness. However, after having done some very minor research, I came across the Koine Greek etymology of the word "beautiful", which came from the word for hour. I suppose that symbolically, it would mean that to be beautiful is to be in one's hour. For example, a ripe fruit would be considered beautiful, since it is in its time.

Perhaps I'll begin to see things in a new light. My view of beauty is continually skewed, so perhaps as things happen in their own time, the nature of the true beauty around me will reveal itself.

I think Yuma is beautiful :3

DJ Encore feat. Engelina: I See Right Through to You

I guess when it comes right down to it, I dig trance? It sticks to my insides even when I try to ignore it and the stigma it developed over the past decade.

I wonder if there will ever be a day in my life where I can say I'm done. With everything. For sure. It doesn't seem like there's enough time.

FT: Three Man Cell

Took FOREVER to come out but it's finally here!

1| Dragonslayer magic = serious business.
2| It's kinda weird how we've never really seen Wendy fight and then here she is, goin for it like a pro.
3| Natsu n Gajeel eating everything looks hilarious.
4| Earthland Erza is badass. Hopefully we can keep the Edoras Erza too though.

Overall lengthy n satisfying but this needs more Jellal explanation.

Recently there's a lot I want to do. I'm caught up using what little time I have for as many people as I can. I just don't want to waste my time.

DFO: Female Launcher

The female launcher! A really fun chance to use a long-range class as a break between the close-range blade master and the mech...which just summons.

I have a lvl 40 cannon that ashi gave me to use but of course that requires reaching lvl 40. I could probably get there if I got serious but right now I'm more interested in awakening the mech. It's hard to manage so many characters since they all become demanding after lvl 30.

Finished at 11:00 today! Pretty decent time, definitely not bad. Helped case move his furniture into the house. It was actually pretty tiring, but I'm glad I was able to help. What good is strength if it can't be used to take care of the people around you?

Of course that's why I wanted to give yuma a ride today and while i'll gladly accept massage compensation, i really don't want to accept gas money/etc because i'm being a boyfriend, not a service. Although maybe sometimes there isn't a big difference between being a boyfriend/girlfriend and a service. I guess it comes down to being able to be a servant, no matter what you do.

Cruizin at Casey's house cuz I have no internet at home for now. Lots of things to do tomorrow! But for today, we will um...try and relax? At least tomorrow is short! I have a newfound love for Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

TC: Mr/Miss Torn Comp

Defense, defense, defense...

July! It's that time of year again.

I never really got into the pic comp, I usually end up making one towards the end of the month using my webcam for the free points. Although this year it's an honor/merit I think so that could actually be more advantageous in the long run.

Finished today at an average time. 12:30 i think. Not bad for a Tuesday, but definitely not good.

You see, what I'm doing here is trading my time for money. Approximately 66 hours every two weeks converts into 720 USD. A decent rate I guess, and definitely much more than what I used to make, but at the same time my "need" for cash/funds/anything is much more demanding than before.

One day, people won't have to worry about money because I'll take care of everything.

Chapter 590: My Brother

1| Dadan raging on Garp was so facking emotional.
2| Ace n Luffy flashbacks are hilarious!
3| That's one hell of a memorial for the WB crew. I wonder what island it's on. Anyways, that is one gangsta bisento tombstone. Very serious tone to the arc.
4| I'm wondering wtq happens now. We saw Marco...have the WB disbanded or will they stick together? I don't think there's a right way to leave your family.
5| Luffy biting Jinbei was just like when Arlong bit Luffy.
6| Luffy! He counted on his fingers!
7| Really moving double-panel.

I think we're finally moving towards the crew reunion. Have no idea how that'll happen, but I'm leaving it up to Oda's enchanting storytelling.

I slept a lot last night. I ate a lot today. I feel like I need to do something, but it's my day off! I suppose it's important to remember that a day off is really a luxury.

Kreo: Burn For You

Dis a goo song!

The uploader uses misa campo for most of the vids. Not that I have a problem, whatever jams your clam I guess. Didn't have more pictures/a video to use? It's hard to find good vids for songs that weren't released with one.

Mm some reason this is reely catchy. A keeper for sure!

FT: Dragon Sense

Let's see:

1| Is that future Wendy? Oh my.
2| Dragon Armor! WTQ! I drew something like that in 6th grade for an art project. copyright!!!
3| Mystogan is actually pretty cool! Too bad Dorma Anim totally owns his face.
4| Gajeel is avenging his cat. Totally called this.
5| Does Gajeel kinda look like Dragon?
6| How convenient that Fairy Tail has 3 Dragon Slayer Mages for the job!

Anyways, the last panel is really cool and I'm looking forward to the next chapter.

DFO: Blade Master

My Blade Master! It's nice to have a break from the mech.

Like all my characters, it's supposed to follow a pve build, which it does fine, but I'm havin trouble keepin up in pvp. Doesn't help that my sparring partner is usually xuph's lv45 soul bender.

I usually go upward, ss tech, backstep cutter, x, upward, repeat etc.

Problem is deyz super armor gets in my face so I need to either juggle higher or counter the super armor. At the same time, I'm kinda too lazy to look up combos though so I just deal with it as it comes.

Today was really quick! Finished 45 minutes earlier than planned! I guess I'm getting a little faster.
