@@Savagewolver What does that have to do with anything? Aside from being a loose expy, it would fit Gray's character of being the edgelord rival to the very optimistic Natsu early on. Hell, if anything, Mashima should've stuck to his guns on that aspect, but Gray mellows out and loses the antagonistic attitude pretty quickly.
@@monette5349 did they ever explain where/how the timeline deviates, cause in the old timeline fairy tail would still fight Tartarus, Natsu would still leave to train and they lost in the end, the only thing I can think of is that Natsu came back earlier in this timeline to save Frosch and later in the old timeline so wasn't around for this battle.
@@monette5349come on Frosch is (for some reason) too adorable to hurt on purpose (I say for some reason because minus the Frog suit Frosch looks like any other Exceed)
Was anyone else confused by this whole thing? Future Rogue told Natsu that Gray kills Frosch and that is why he turned evil. Understandably why, the grief of losing a close loved one can change anyone. In Rogue’s case he must’ve completely shut down and that allowed his dark half to take over. But now that we know Gray was actually undercover, how did he end up killing Frosch? My theory is this: Originally when Rogue went after Avatar with Frosch, he encountered Gray, not knowing he was undercover and thought he actually turned evil. Unable to blow his cover, Gray fights Rogue but holds back a bit until Frosch gets in the way. Now even though Gray’s hits weren’t strong enough to deal a lethal blow to a full size person, they were enough to a little Exceed. So when Gray tries to strike Rogue, Frosch - thinking Rogue is going to get seriously hurt - jumps in the way and ends up taking the hit which is strong enough to kill him. Rogue loses it, possibly kills Gray, and goes off never knowing the truth. I wish they cleared all this up in the manga and episode.
It's possible that by natsu and Lucy finding grey while he was undercover they stopped that timeline from happening. Because it's entirely possible that instead of natsu and Lucy going rouge just went on his own and grey to keep his cover killed frotsch right in front of Rouge which created that future Rouge timeline. Why would grey do that well remember devil slayer magic if overused affects his mind In a negative way so by natsu and Lucy going instead of rouge then they changed the outcome just with that simple act.
@@thenobody7509 Well yeah that is pretty obvious. Natsu succeeded in saving Frosch and preventing Rogue from going dark by taking the job himself. That’s pretty much what I was talking about but my point is we will never know the exact details of future evil Rogue’s account of what happened.
@@pokemontrainerharryghost Yeah watching the dark aura fade from Rogue's shadow, and they remember the future versions, and see that things changed for the better.

I never quite understood the "Gray is supposed to kill Frosch" plot line. It seemed like it would've been massively out of character for him. So I'm glad they didn't do it. But I think he just did that prediction for a bit of cheap suspense that didn't even pay off. The only person in the Fairytail unvierse that would kill Frosch would be Acnologia. If Zeref had met Frosch he woulda stopped the war on Fiore instantly.
2:18 I think Lucy saw future Rogue and her future self watching from above smiling of relief that Natsu and them prevented a horrible outcome from their timeline. I Really love that shot of them. And with that they will finally be at peace
he said "hm??? 😖 ⁉ hold on ‼ 🤨 i think 🤔 🫵 thats frosch from sabertooth 🤓 ☝ what r u doing 🫵 ❓ so far away from home 🛣 🏘 alright you 👿 🤬 GWET CLOSER 🤪 🤣 SO I CAN SWEE 👀 😍 YOUR CUTE WITTLE FACE 🗣 🩷 😻 JUST LOOKING 👁 👀 AT YOU 🫵 🐈 MAKES ME HAPPY 🤣 😂 "
Either it was an accident as Rogue was going on the job before Lucy and Natsu took it OR it's a timeline where Juvia never lived with Gray so he was under the influence of devil slayer magic and couldn't control himself. By living with Juvia she definitely softened his heart by making him like cute things and keeping control of his powers. As when she 'died' Gray went ballistic
