Fairy Tail 160 comes up strong as we see Jellal as Mystogan do some of his awesome magic, we’ve not seen Mystogan’s powers in the past before, so it’s nice to know that Mystogan has incredibly powerful magic. Plus it seems that Fairy Tail are still at the bottom end of Day 1, hopefully they pick up during Day 2.

Fairy Tail 160 begins with the second battle of the first day with Ren Akatsuki from Blue Pegasus and Arania Web from Mermaid Heel. We see a little chatter from Ren and Arania. Everyone starts to shout out Sherry’s name, from Lamia Scale, they suggest that both Ren and Sherry are in love.

This distracts Ren, allowing Arania to attack. Ren is held by the web which she shot, fortunately, Ren gets out, each web Arania sends doesn’t get Ren as he jumps around. Sherry is all in love by what Ren says to her. Ren gets ready to attack, Arania launches her web, Ren quickly shows us his new trick, Aerial Phose which sends out like a strong impulse which cuts through all the web and hits Arania. Ren wins this match.

The next match is War Cry from Quatro Cerberus against Orga Nanagear from Sabertooth. The crowd cheers on for Orga. The match begins, we notice War Cry’s power take effect, he starts crying, he says that more he cries the stronger he gets. Orga just watches for a while when he gets ready to attack, he lifts his arm and within a moment, Orga’s powers takes effect.

It completely defeats War Cry, Laxus notices that he used lightning. As Orga returns to his place with the other members, Sting tells him that he could have had a little fun, Orga takes it the wrong way and goes to sing in the middle of the ground, everyone hears him and starts to laugh. Everyone notices that Sabertooth really are made of raw power too.

We go the final match between Mystogan of Fairy Tail B and Jura Neekis from Blue Pegasus. Both of the go into the battlefield to meet each other. Jura tells Mystogan that personally he’s rooting for Fairy Tail, but since their master doesn’t allow this, he has to win, he also tells him that he doesn’t plan on going easy. Mystogan also agrees that he’s not going to go easy on him. Ultear and Meredy are shocked that Jellal’s in a match already.

The battle starts and Mystogan runs towards Jura with his staff’s. With Jura’s magic, Mystogan is pushed up, Jura quickly takes this opportunity and guides his rocks towards Mystogan, it missing him. Jellal takes his staffs and places them surrounding Jura. He activates his magic, Five Layered Magic Circle, Sacred Song which places 5 Magic Circles on top of Jura.

Laxus notices that Jellal is copying Mystogan’s magic. After Mystogan’s attack, Jura quickly uses his magic to create a large rock hand, it tries to go towards Mystogan but is reflected towards Jura. Jura himself uses his own magic to reflect it once more, unfortunately Mystogan cannot stop this attack.

It gets Mystogan in his attack, he realizes that he cannot beat Jura with borrowed magic, he places his arm on the ground and says Meteor. This gives Mystogan the ability to quickly and with intense speed travel around, it passes Jura by and circles him until he goes for an attack.

Jura creates a wall, Mystogan goes from the side to attack him, which he does. Jura quickly scatters the wall he built to possibly get  Mystogan in an attack. Mystogan goes towards the skies when Jura also sends his bricks there. Jura uses one of his bricks to quickly attack Mystogan which connects. Fortunately Mystogan had already done his magic in the sky, using the bricks.

Mystogan activates it, calling it the Grand Chariot. It releases a large number of light which head towards Jura on the ground. Jura quickly creates his Rock Mountain which protects him from Mystogan’s attack. As the smoke clears, Jura notices that he’s seen this magic before and that it can only be Jellal within Mystogan’s cloths.

Jellal notices that he has to win for Fairy Tail no matter what. So he does a hand movement which Ultear and Meredy both notice, he also says True Heavenly Body Magic, Cerma, which creates a large purple cloud which scares the hell out of everyone, even Jura. Ultear and Meredy notice that they cannot let Jellal blow his cover.

Meredy asks what they should do, as Jellal continues on to initiate his move, he starts to gag and the magic is creating starts to disappear, he notices a sharp and hot feeling in his mouth.  We see that Meredy is being fed chilies by Ultear while Meredy has a connection with Jellal. He starts to laugh, cry and do all other kinds of emotions. He then loses after a long period of pain from Ultear on Meredy. Jura wins without doing anything during this fight.

The day ends with the final fight. Mystogan return to his team, all of them telling him that he lost badly. Even he doesn’t have any words to tell them about what happened. Lucy return to her team, she notices that they have not yet gained any points. At this point, we have Levy as the narrator as she seems to be writing a letter to Lucy.

She says that the Grand Magic Games are still starting off and there is something much more evil coming soon. At this point Carla wakes up from her sleep noticing that she had a premonition of something really bad. The message from Levy ends here. Natsu tells Lucy that today was the first day, and they’ve still got a long time to go to get their points. Fairy Tail 160 ends here.

A great episode, it was nice to see Mystogan, or really Jellal fight as we haven’t seen him do so in some time. Plus the link in which Meredy and Jellal had was pretty funny. Can’t wait for next week’s Fairy Tail 161, titled “Chariot”, can’t wait for the next challenge Chariot.
