The next chapter 466 of the series is titled as "Assassin." It is rumored that the title has been given such name as there might be some connection between Lucy and Layla's death on Eclipse.

The last chapter of Fairy Tail was full of action sequences which showcased a combat between Zeref and Natsu. The episode also revealed that Natsu and Zeref were brothers and that Zeref knew since 400 years that Natsu is the one who would kill him. Zeref was unable to kill his rumored brother Natsu in chapter 465 with his power attack, as Happy disrupted the battle, reported China Topix.

Yibada reported that the truth that Natsu is the "Etherious Natsu Dragneel" was also revealed in chapter 465. There are speculations that Natsu will keep his demon identity secret from the Guild to avoid any conflicts among the members in the new chapter.
