Fairy Tail 325 does it again for me as the great series continues with Natsu finally going up against Future Rogue. Lucy and the others meet up with the Princess while the King asks all the mages in the land for help fighting off any left over dragons after the Eclipse plan is initiated. We also notice how the door of the Eclipse opens up with its great power charging for the attack.

Fairy Tail 325 begins with Natsu quickly telling Lucy that she must get away, Loki quickly takes her away as she’s the person who’s being targeted. Future Rogue appears and tells her that she’s not getting away, as he gets closer, Natsu appears and smashes he’s head towards the ground, then punches him back. Natsu wipes his tears away.

Future Rogue mentions that he expected Natsu to get in his way, he also knows that he was killed by a Dragon, thus he won’t mind he if he kills him all by himself, he uses his shadow to spew out his powers on Natsu, however it doesn’t kill him, it seems that it only injures him. Natsu tells him that he took away something precious to him right in front of his eyes, thus his way of doing things is crap, thus they’ll protect their future their own way!

Mirajane looks for Yukino, she finds her and asks her to quickly follow her. Yukino tells her that she cannot, everywhere she goes she always bring misfortune and people always get hurt. Mirajane mentions that they will never blame anyone on their misfortune,  Mirajane quickly hugs Yukino telling her that people have their reasons for living, and thus sh should also keep on living no matter what.

Hisui quickly begins with her response attack towards the dragon and begins the cannon’s firing sequence. The clock begins to move, and it seems like a number of parts are moving freely. A number of people are being sent to a place where they are most likely to be safe, a number of evacuations of the citizens is being taken.

Lucy and the others appear and notice the princess, Hisui prays for them to eliminate the dragons with just one shot. Hisui and the others notice that there are some people there, Happy and Carla come out showing their position, Datong tells them that their circumstances have changed, Hisui notice that Fairy Tail have arrived.

Hisui apologizes telling them that they want to say sorry for what had occurred, and that she congratulates them for the victory. Wendy is happy about winning this. Lucy asks why they’re opening the gates when the dragon’s aren’t even there. Hisui asks how they know about the dragons, Arcadios mentions that they are aware of everything.

Arcadios then asks where the Future Lucy is, Lily tells them that she was killed by a man from the future, Lucy explains that the man tried to kill her because she would interfere when the cannon opened and thus the attack would eventually come. Hisui asks if she’s going to interfere with the plan, Lucy mentions that she isn’t going to do any such thing.

Hisui tells her that they need to open it up before because it takes some time to charge the cannon, they wouldn’t be able to charge it in time after they’ve arrived. She asks if that cannon can really stop the dragons, Hisui mentions that she doesn’t know for certain, however the King is making preparations for a worse case scenario.

The King, who’s finally revealed, tells them about the situation and what they’re currently planning, his name Toma E Fiore. Makarov and everyone from Fairy Tail mention that it’s a hard task for all of them, even after they faced Acnologia. He asks all the mages from all the guilds to help him save the country. Everyone cheers and quickly agree to save their own country. The king cries in happiness.

Lahar and Doranbolt mention that they’ve broken about 30 laws and thus should report back to the council, at a hearts beat, Jellal appears behind them telling them that he’s got a request. Natsu keeps on fighting Future Rogue, he mentions that he reeks of evil, then mentions that he didn’t come there to save the future, Future Rogue smiles at the comments as though it’s actually true.

The great Eclipse doors opens slowly but with great power, as it opens, great smoke appears, and it seems a lot of air is being sucked in, as thought it’s been in a vacuum for a very long time. The gates quickly open as Lucy just stairs at the large and unique structure, it’s a gate to which their hopes is riding, what could lie beyond this? Fairy Tail 325 ends here.

What a fantastic chapter, awesome things are happening after other awesome things. Can’t believe that all guilds are finally joining together, it’s like all the villages joining together in Naruto. Nevertheless, it’s a large spectacle, can’t wait for next week’s Fairy Tail 326, titled “Natsu vs. Rogue”, when we’ll see the awesome fight go forth between the Future menace and the current hero!
