It reminded me of Batman, especially "The Dark Knight".
You have to choose between two bombs, two (groups of) lives. One (group) will die, the second one will live. If you don´t choose, all of them will die, for the villain will detonate them.
Here comes Batman (Natsu) and saves the day, after the indecision of the decider(s), who may live and who not.
But whatever, it wasn´t the worst. What I didn´t like was that Natsu saved the day again (although it was depicted nicely), as I wanted Lucy to do something. Fill the bubles with water, shoot an arrow at the evil guy in the meanwhile. Something. Moreover, I want Natsu to lose, even by a slight margin, and then Lucy and Wendy to finish the job. I want the former to experience helplessness - and I don´t care if he is saved by the latters after.
But I like that daemon. He has got balls and he meddles around, taking his sweet sweet time.
And that ex-councelor is one hell of a sod. To blazing hell with him.
3/5.
