Mashima's complete inability to write decent female characters is frustrating enough as is, but Juvia and Lucy's behaviour after Tartaros is the god damn pinnacle of that for me. They are so GOD DAMN toxic and entitled and,,,, fuck... I don't mind NaLu, but that part of the manga makes me second guess EVERYTHING. If Lucy's going to be that invalidating towards Natsu's feelings then she has the capacity to do much worse and honestly? Natsu's probably better off being gay.
GOD YEAH like women aren't children,,,,, they are capable & hard working maybe don't fucking reduce every female character to that shit. Natsu's definitely better off being gay because shit the man's already got pink hair-
