Ultear Milkovich - Blog Posts

Sorta close. That’s the Tenrou island arc, and you seem to be mixing up Gray’s and Natsu’s separate fights with the time mage. Natsu never beat Ultear though. (Ultear also wasn’t able to negate Natsu’s magic but she certainly kept him from being able to hit her). Gray is the one who beat her. Ultear was also initially able to negate Gray’s ice make magic by turning his ice into water. However Gray figured out Ultear couldn’t rewind or fast forward organic organisms so he used his blood to create bloody ice and was able to beat her.

There are several times in the series that Natsu does win by saying he’ll breath more fire. Most notably (in my opinion) when he uses dragon force for the first time. It’s fair to remember that Fairy Tail is 100% the power of friendship wins the day style story so some solutions don’t exactly make sense. I always found Gray vs. Ultear to be pretty neat and help explain magic better.

Guys I think I have a false memory and I need someone who's seen fairy tail to tell me if it's a hallucination or not.

I vaguely remember natsu had to fight some girl who had a magic ball that was constantly rewinding time or something and negating his fire breathing bullshit...

And I remember that the solution didn't make sense because it was basically just natsu saying I'll just breathe even more fire...or punch it even harder??????

And I remember at the time I thought it was really fucking stupid.

Because it was brute forcing a boring solution to an interesting battle dynamic, and a classic example of an author coming up with an idea so good that he wrote himself into a corner with it???

Did something like that happen in fairy tail or did I implant a false memory in my head???
