Request: Reveal of FT's mysteries!
In one of Magnolia's cafe:
Lucy: Hello everyone!
Mira: Puru puru pupipiiiin!
L: What?! What are you doing?!
M: Imitating one of your Spirits - Plue!
L: No no no, you don't sound like it at all!
M: Ok then, let's do our best today too!
L: O-ok, let's start with the first question.

Q: I love Brandish-chan! Please, make her happy!
M: Brandish from Spriggan 12 is very popular, isn't she?
L: Irene or DiMaria, who was so cruel for me, are popular too.
M: Whole females' party is popular.
L: As for males' party it's God Serena.
M: What? But he's... you know...
L: I wonder if he's so hopelessly cute.
M: Author is fan of Jacob.
L: Oh yeah, Mira-san, you're fighting with him right now, aren't you? Do your best!
M: Sure! But I don't know why he's fighting with his eyes closed all the time.
L: What?
M: He's capable warrior with no doubts, but thanks to that I can fight with him on par.
L: Mira-san, may it be that you're barely dressed right now?
M: Oh my, shame on me.
L: Let's... go back to the topic. Brandish, I want you to be happy too!
M: You're right. It would be wonderful, if everyone could be happy.
L: Yeah... but lately, with this development... I'm not so sure about it.
M: Let's see next question.

Q: What really happened in chapter 503 in volume 59, when DiMaria was stopping time?
L: Oh, that time... Thanks to that I was saved, but something strange happened with Natsu...
M: And DiMaria was so frightened, it wasn't normal at all.
L: Natsu was moving although the time was stopped?
M: So, let's see what happened step by step:
1. DiMaria stopps the time.
2. Natsu wakes up and knocks out DiMaria in the same time.​
L: Wait the second! How could he move when time was stopped?!
M: Isn't it because of END's power?
L: But Natsu was tied up too.
M: With END's power something like that is not a big deal.
L: And he was suffering from this tumor. (not sure about this line)
M: END's power!
L: Very useful...
M: Let's see what happened next:
3. Natsu notices Lucy (he sees her breasts).​
L: Don't look at them!
M: Now it's too late...
4. Natsu releases Lucy (he sees her breasts again).​
L: You're looking too much!
M: Natsu is a guy after all.
5. Because Lucy's not moving, Natsu thinks, that she's dead.
6. He awakens his END's powers.
7. He strikes at DiMaria again.
8. And rushes to Zeref's place.​
L: So something like that happened.
M: Natsu is a guy after all.
L: Let's change the topic.

Q: When will you perform Star Dress: Capricorn Form?
L: Well, maybe I'll perform it in Fairy Tail Second Film, or maybe not...
M: Hm? So will you or not?
L: I can't tell you yeeeet!
M: Puru puru pupipiiiin

In this volume, the significant mystery about Dragon Slayers was revealed, did you enjoy it? Right after the reveal, some people were saying: "That's great setup!", the others "He came up with this plot recently, it's not fair" and others just "Hmph!". As for "coming up with plot recently" - if you by that mean, that some development wasn't decided even before 1st chapter, then almost every plot may be clasified as "recent made-up". One editor was saying "The story is a living thing". Different factors are included in it and it grows. There's no way, that full story can be decided from the very beginning, so with the story flows I will complement it little by little.

Irene being mother of Dragonslayers was decided before she appeared in manga. On the other hand, her connection with Erza wasn't set at all. That's why she and Acnologia couldn't talk about Dragon Slaying Magic during their confrontation, it because "her connection with Erza wasn't set yet". I should've been more careful with this one.

Speaking about "recent made-up", I remember I wrote it before, but almost everything related to Erza is recent made-up. When I introduced her into the story, her magic, relationships with Jellal and Natsu weren't decided yet. It was like starting the bus before all passengers are on board, but as if she was a proof of "The story is living thing", she showed her growth and became one of the most popular FT characters.

I'll definitely add some "recent made-ups" in the future chapters. Well, not showing it too much is also professionals' job.
