Review of Fairy Tail

So, I'm gonna do a review about Fairy Tail, one of the most popular shounen anime to date. Why is it so popular? Let's see upon closer inspection. Story: 3. The story is absolutely cliché. Don't get me wrong. Each arc is beating the bad guy and moving to the next arc. Absolutely unoriginal. The story had WAAAY more potential of being an awesome well-thought story, but no, the creators wanted to make another story cliché. Good job. Art/Animation: 6 Okay, there is some positive in Fairy Tail. The art is one of them. Although not outstanding, it still shows bright colors. The backgrounds aren't that remarkable, but it'sstill acceptable. As for the animation, I've seen better fight scenes than this. But I find it acceptable too.
Sound: 10
That's like the BEST part of Fairy Tail. The soundtrack is amazing. Especially the main theme. A very emotional theme, I'd say. I have nothing else to say on that.
Character: 2
I'll mention the most important characters to the story, so here we go:
-Lucy Heartfilia: Obviously the ABSOLUTE WORST CHARACTER OF THE WHOLE DAMN SHOW AND SHE IS THE MAIN PROTAGONIST. She is somewhat relatable, but seriously, she is absolutely USELESS. She has a curvaceous body to attract male audience. She gets naked in each arcs. Yeah, you heard me, IN EACH ARCS. NO CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, TOO MUCH RIDICULOUS PLOT ARMOR, WAY TOO MUCH FANSERVICE, AND A HORRENDOUS PLOT DEVICE. The only good thing about her is her magic powers, but it doesn't make up for her under-developed character. She just makes a speech about friendship and 'NAKAMAS' and then she can do anything.
-Natsu Dragneel: Okay, I like his personality as a goof-off, and has a pretty good backstory, but his main problem is that he gets his power-ups in strange ways. His character had potential, too. He is the main guy to save the day. He also has to save Lucy every time, which gets pretty annoying, considering each time he saves her, she is either naked, or her breasts are on his face. His flame abilities are pretty cool, too, but his fire magic potential had gone to waste after two arcs. I like his character overall, but he is kind of one dimensional, gets zero character development like Lucy, and is stereotypical.
Gray Fullbuster: He provides the fanservice for the female audience, but he has cool ice-make magic and at least got some character development. The way Natsu's and Gray's rivalry became slowly friendship is sweet.
Erza Scarlet: My favorite character of the show. Why? Because she is a badass, unlike Lucy. She is capable of showing authority. And she gets the best character development, in my opinion, of the four. Unfortunately, she suffered from the fanservice device in OVAs.
Enjoyment: 8. As much as there is negative in the show, it was at least enjoyable.
Overall: 4
If you're into anime about fighting with friendship with a lot of fanservice, DEFINITELY WORTH THE WATCH. But if you're like me, and you like more well-thought story, than don't watch this show. I deeply regret to have watched it. It had so much potential, especially when it involves magic, but no the potential has all been burnt to the ground.
