And we're back yo 90% explosions and 8% fan service (2% plot).

3.5/5 The Tenrou Island arc continues. Highlights of this volume involve plot development for Cana and Gildarts and a battle between Erza and Azuma the tree man. Decent overall but the “I can win with the power of friendship” theme in some of the fights is becoming over played. I expect it in Shonen manga but we don’t need to use it every 3-4 volumes.
The volume ends with a build up between Gray and Ultear.
Gildarts and the Fairy Tail members as kids on the cover of volume 28.

Now we know what Cana's big secret is, as well as diving deeper into both friend and foes backstories. The plot thickens with this volume as emotions run high. I think the emotional stakes actually get higher as this arc moves along. Onto volume 29!

Blue note’s magic is very strange.🤔 Is that a kind of gravity or rain?? Moreover, Fairy glitter is also unclear for me so I should better watch anime in Japanese as a confirm. By the way, a secret of Kana was revealed so I was impressed again. (Every time I am impressed...😭)

Yay Gildarts

Gildarts is Cana’s father? Ooohh
All this time she was just trying to prove that she was something he could be proud of ): but then she came to the realisation that i doesn’t matter if she become an S-Class wizard if shes going to be treat her friends. She doesn’t want that! I loved that moment for her.
“Mistakes are not shackles to hold you back. . . But sustenance to nurture the heart.”
Jellal and Ezra have some kind of connection?! he gave her strength to fight? 🥺
“What I am doing is not protecting my friends. They have always been the ones protecting me!” — Ezra Scarlet
And Ultear’s true motives were revealed.

Lucy and her friends are beginning to think that the battles with this illegal guild will never end as the fighting drags them deeper and deeper into the island! Mashima continues the battles with this entertaining entry that pits fan favourites against new and creative abilities. What will it take to get these guys to cease their plans of revival?!
January 27, 2021
Some good fights, a few decent moments, though the whole magic sapping thing seemed like some absolute nonsense with no real setup or purpose other than to give Erza a more pivotal fight, I guess.
It’s not particularly good, but is far from the worst this series has offered.

<3 Finally, we get down to some great fights. The sort of cheesy, my-friends-are-my-strength fights that I read shonen manga for. Love Erza so much! Love Gildarts. Love everything about this volume.

While I still really enjoy how action-packed these volumes are, constantly getting a power boost because of friendship is a little tiring.

4.45 ⭐️
Ultear is telling Gray that she is doing Ur’s will. Even after he makes the point she should hate Zeref since he made Deliora, and that’s what killed Ur
Erza has encounter Azuma
Hades has sent out ‘Blue Note’ and sends a silent apology to Makarov
Rusty Rose comes to their base camp… where it is only Levy, Lisana and Lily to defend and their magic power is low.
Natsu, Lucy, Wendy, Carla, Happy and a K.O Makarov encounter the sub commander of GH: Blue Note Stinger (he has gravity magic?)
Blue Note is determined to find the grave of Mavis.
Cana has made it there first! The grave is glowing: sealing the ‘Fairy Glitter’ spell
Canas backstory: Her mother passed, she learned her father was a FT wizard so she went there. Her father is Gildarts!!! He didn’t recognise her, so she waited for another opportunity but it never came. She began to enclose. She told herself that she would tell him she is his daughter when she became an S-Class Wizard. And that’s trial was her last.
She begs for the power to help her guild, to protect her friends
CANA GETS THE FAIRY GLITTER SPELL
She is getting thrown around by Blue Note and he is trying to take the Fairy Glitter out of her.
Natsu is trying so hard to get up and help, he blows fire through the ground XD
That allows Cana to use it- but he uses to much gravity magic and stops her. She doubts her abilities. Just before she will be dropped, some saves her. GILDARTS!!!
FRIED AND BICKSLOW CAME BACK TOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! They’re fighting Rusty Rose, beating his ass!
Blue Note and Gildarts are equal
Azuma reveals he has wood type magic, lost magic: Arboreal Arc. He connected to the roots and is tipping over the sacred tree on Sirius Island- and the FT members wain in magical power..
The tree would enhance anyone with a guild marks power AND protect them from death while they’re on the island
Gildarts, the Thunder Legion, Erza- they’re being beat.
Azuma is the one draining them, he has lent Erza her strength and told her, to show him the strength to save her friends..
She decides after a few reequips that she needs no armour but all her magic power concentrated into her sword: Fairy Sword, Red Cherry Blossum.
He grabs her… he hurts her- badly. He thinks he’s won.
Jallal from his cell, whisper-calls her name and pleads her to win. She gets up. For her friends, she gets- the fuck- back up!!!
Azuma vs. Erza: Winner = Erza
Azuma grants everyone back their magic from the sacred tree. Upholding his end of the bargain. His body starts turning into its own tree(?)
Rusty Rose tries to use the same attack that took Elfman and Ever out. Bickslow takes off his mask to control Elfman as a puppet.
GILDARTS COULD BREAK BLUE NOTES BLACK HOLE MAGIC!!???
Ultear is manipulating Gray to try and use Ice Shell on Hades…. This man always trying to off himself with that damn spell.
Ultear is so manipulative! She had lied to Gray, and when she see’s Juvia passed out near Meldy, she aims to kill her. Gray comes to save her!!
Ultear was under the impression Gray would wait for her “I’m the strongest” speech… he did not.
So many cool fights! Back story, and a little more on the powers of Sirius Island!! I love that we got to see the strength of Gildarts and the power of two Thunder Legion members!

EN RESUMEN
El gremio sigue haciendo intentos de entender la situación y reagruparse mientras nuevos enemigos de Grimoire Heart aparecen.
ACLARACIÓN
Todos estos puntos están de alguna forma influenciados por conocimientos y opiniones que ya tenía sobre la historia gracias a la adaptación del anime y al ser esta una relectura.
ASPECTOS POSITIVOS
- Me gustó mucho el desarrollo de Cana. Había mucho misticismo rodeándola a ella y a sus objetivos, pero una vez que todo queda más claro no podes no entenderla y empatizar con su situación.
-
ASPECTOS NEGATIVO
- Las peleas generaron mucho hype, pero siguen siendo demasiado cortas. El problema con FT y sus batallas no es s��lo el uso "del poder de los sentimientos y la amistad" que Mashima utiliza para darle el power up definitivo a los personajes. Si bien esto da lugar a diálogos muy cringe porque los personajes necesitan explicar cómo es que esos sentimientos les dan el empujón para seguir luchando, FT no es el primer manga ni el último en hacer uso de este elemento. No, el verdadero problema acá es que Mashima le afloja demasiado a la coreografía. Dame batallas más largas, subí un poco la tensión, hace de los villanos algo más que meras caricaturas. Sé que el tipo tiene la capacidad y la habilidad de dibujo para lograrlo, por eso es tan frustrante. Es como si Mashima encontró un patrón para cada pelea y lo calca en cada nuevo arco porque no tiene ganas de innovar un poco (y debería, dado la gran cantidad de tipos de magia que existen en el mundo que creó).
CONCLUSIÓN
El tomo 28 de Fairy Tail es más sólido que el anterior, en especial a lo que darle momentos claves a personajes se refiere. Sin embargo, las batallas y el dibujo se siguen quedando un poco cortos a la hora de entregar algo nuevo e interesante.

This will be my full review for this entire series. I already read this comic from volume 1-30. Suppose there 50 volume more of this series but I prefer not to finish it as I don't really like the time-skip idea in this series.
To clarify, I love the idea of time-skip. But, in this series, I really hate it. It make Natsu and other main member weaker. Why make them weaker? I want to see MC progress throughout the series. Then, suddenly become weaker. Not to mention when MC want to win each battle, power of friendship keep coming back each battle.
Furthermore, there are a lot of un-explained things happened in this series. The dots are not connected rather than scattered throughout the series. It just there to fill the plot-hole. Rather than explaining, Mr Hiro keep continuing the series and keep adding new characters each volume.
So, after the time-skip, I determine to stop reading this series. I don't want to ruin my memories of this awesome series. For most part, this series actually had huge potential because of interesting and lovable character, but the plot is keep on damaging this series slowly.

The Tenrou Island arc is in full swing and fight upon fight dominates this volume. As always there are a few revelations which enriches the installment but this was heavy on the fights. I found myself wondering how many episodes this entire volume would consume in the animated series. Cana and Gildarts further plot is the highlight of the book...which is a quick read because of all the battling. The art is always top notch, but this volume is more forgettable than many of the others. Not bad...but definitely even with the cool moves is not going to hold a candle to previous and I am sure future battles.

So as repeatitive as the fighting can get in these books, this one feature two badass fights. Gildarts' one was essentially awesome vs. awesome. And I love to see Fried and Bixlow go full force.
What I like about Fairy Tail is that it sometimes takes someone who could be a throw away character and gives them some dimensions, like Cana here. What I'm not so fond of: I'm starting to get why Erza gets on people's nerves. I like her and her badass self, but it is annoying that she never loses.

I rate this 3.75 stars.
I don’t understand why sometimes the island is called Tenrou Island and sometimes Sirius Island, or is Tenrou only used in the anime. I’m very confused since I’ve been reading the manga and rewatching these anime episodes simultaneously. This confusion is so embarrassing🤦🏻♀️

This didn’t have me flipping through the pages a quickly as others but I still loved this volume! We finally learn who Cana’s father is and we get some amazing battles with a guild member we haven’t really seen fight before (which I was 100% here for). In addition we learn more about the other types of magic this enemy has and see a big role for both Erza and Gray.
January 7, 2024
It was a really nice volume, the fights were easy to be involved in but it didn't draw me in as much as other volumes can. Excited to read more of Fairy Tail this year and i'm happy to start the year with it.

This is so insane!!! What is happening on this island? I have a feeling in the next volume that the end is near. I am so looking forward to this.
