Fairy Tail 180 meets with the Garou Knights where they’re named to be the Kingdom’s executioners where they take out the enemies of the kingdom, they face Natsu and the others when Wendy is captured by one of the Knights. Natsu and Wendy begin the fight against Cosmos and Kamika but seem to have the lower hand when fighting. We also learn that Lector is alive, he was taken by Minerva’s magic in which she will return to Sting when he wins. 

Fairy Tail 180 begins as Gray defeats Rufus and every one cheers for Fairy Tail and Gray. Fairy Tail have gained some much needed points. Mavis mentions that the power of his feelings have helped him get through it. For the sake of Lucy and the others they’re willing to do anything. Fairy Tail leads with 50 points, Sabertooth and Lamia Scale with 49 points. Mermaid Heel have 43 points.

We see Rogue talking about how this time he will be beating Gajeel with all his might. Minerva talks about how they’ve gotten on a new level. We see what happens after Sting hit Jiemma, to which we learn that Minerva had taken Lector to another place, and that she uses Sting’s feelings to win in order to bring back Lector. They also mention Sting to be the new Master. Minerva tells Sting that the power of feelings will help him win.

Natsu is feeling tired as he hasn’t eaten yet, they keep on walking and trying to find a way out. They keep on walking to which Yukino mentions that she’s thankful for what he did when he trashed the Sabertooth place. She’s just a provisional member of the army, she was happy when he fought for her.

We hear the ground and ceiling move as though it’s an earthquake, they go through a cavern like place where they have to squeeze through. They quickly notice Arcadios there down, it seem that he’s been injured. He wakes up and tells them to run, however Wendy tries to heal him.

Someone large appears to which he smashes the ground, it seems he’s using Acid, someone else appears to which he pushes all of them up. Someone using plants appears, and another using paper. A fifth member appears. Arcadios mentions that they’re the strongest executioners and work for the Kingdom, the Garou Knight, in their 1500 mission.

Natsu begins to laughs since they look nothing like knights, someone mentions that they don’t need outfits to be knights. Arcadios tells Natsu not to underestimate them. Natsu gets on point, with Wendy and Mirajane plus Lily to fight.

Natsu begins his fight with Cosmos and Kamika, Kamika launches red paper, to which Natsu tries to burn but fails, instead Natsu is punched to the ground after he can’t seem to eat it. Wendy gets involved helping Natsu get free. Natsu and Wendy try and attack Kamika and Cosmos but it doesn’t seem to work.

Wendy and Natsu even use a combo attack of their roar, it seems though that they’ve survived. Kamika launches her other light where it allows for Wendy to get captured, then Natsu gets captured too. Cosmos gets her plants to join in. It seems that they’re in trouble, however Natsu mentions that they’re only getting started.

Natsu burns the plants around Wendy and she does the same for Natsu, both are free. Natsu and Wendy keep on attacking but doesn’t seem to be working at all. Knepper and Ousuke are also told to get ready to begin their attacks.

Mirajane and Lily also get involved and it seems that they’re pushed back. Natsu is pushed away while Wendy is put put into an illusion of paper, however she when blows it away, Wendy is on top of a plant to which it quickly catches her. Natsu screams her name. Fairy Tail 180 ends here.

A really good episode, finally got to the see the Garou Knights and their power, although I’m sure It’s good to say that we’ll see some awesome fights in the Hell Palace during next week’s Fairy Tail 181, titled “Fairy Tail versus the Executioners” when Natsu and everyone else gets involved in the fight too.
