Review of Fairy Tail

Sorry its so long! But I still didn't cover a fourth of everything that happened in this anime. When I first saw this anime, i wondered whether not I should watch it. With a name like Fairy Tail it sounds pretty lame, right? Wrong. Fairy Tail is absolutely great, and almost everyone who has seen this anime or read the manga will agree with me. So, what's it about besides a guy with pink hair named Summer(Natsu) running around breathing fire, and a talking cat named Happy? Its about a blonde hottie named Lucy Heartfilia who is a Stellar Spirit Mage (summons spirits based on constellations).Her dream is to join a mages guild called Fairy Tail. Obviously, she get's in pretty quick, its what happens afterward that matters. She meets people like Gray Fullbuster, a ice mage with a habit of stripping naked, and Erza Scarlett, a freaking powerful warrior mage who does some pretty weird things. A cute girl named Wendy Marvell (introduced further into the anime) who gets easily flustered. Fairy Tail contains a plethora of unique characters and personalities, each one just as refreshing as the last.

So what's the main plot? Well one of the main questions throughout the anime is what happened to the Dragons? Each dragon had a certain element, and raised only one child. Natsu got fire, Wendy got air, Gajeel got Iron, and each one has the ability to eat their element to gain magic power. However, the Dragons all disappeared July 7th, 777. The question of what happened to them is brought constantly, and is the reason why Natsu and Lucy meet, but it is not the main quest.

This anime doesn't really have a main quest. Instead, it has story arcs, each of which are events that happen to the guild, or are adventures that the characters go out on as requests.As a guild, Fairy Tail receives requests that the guild members go out and complete and get paid for. It is through these requests, and random events that give Fairy Tail its story and the characters their backstory. Nothing similar ever happens twice. There is always a sense of suspense during every arc right up till the end.

I love watching this anime and its characters. Right now, Fairy Tail is on Hiatus as the voice actor for Lucy has personal reasons. I am re-watching it to refresh my memory of the story, but now is also a great time for other people to start it if you want to get caught up. I hope you enjoy this anime as much as i do!
