I wanted to possibly get some feedback on this, since the anime just showed it, but... Fairy Glitter; what does it do?
Fairy Law is said to be the ultimate attack spell.
Fairy Sphere is the ultimate defense magic.
So what route is left for Fairy Glitter? It can't be just another attack spell.
My current theory is that, by calling on the stars, it affects destiny and reality itself, turning despair into hope in some fashion. Hence, when Cana used it, and with Gildarts being firmly on her mind, he showed up to save them. That was the form her strong wish of "save us" took.
Might explain why Laxus showed up later, too; it assisted in bringing him to the island, it just took him longer because he was farther away.
