Review of Fairy Tail

two animes with the most numbers of fans and haters. Like, I don't know if Fairy Tail has more fans or haters and I think is very difficult to be on the middle, you hate it or you love it. So, in which side am I? By the score that I gave to it you might think that I like it and that's 100% true. I like it. Maybe is because it was the first "real" anime that I saw (Pokemon doesn't count). So now I am going to tell you why I like it.

2) Characters

I want to proper start this review judging the characters because I think it's one of the most controversial topics. The haters say that this show doesn't contain character development and I think that they are right. "What? But you said that you like Fairy Tail, how dare you agree with the haters!" Yeh, that's right. I like the show but I don't think it is perfect. Unfortunately, this anime made a very poor development for the characters which is very disappointing because I really liked them. Yep. I really liked Natsu, Lucy, Happy, Gray, Erza and the others, I love their backstories and I was very sad and disappointed that they didn't grow up, like, I love them but I want to see a change, a better version of them, not just a stronger version but a version with better personality.

3) Story

Well, on my opinion the story is the weakest part of Fairy Tail. I said before that I love the characters' backstories and it is true but the actual plot isn't so good. Now that I am thinking, Fairy Tail is one of a few shows that I prefer the flashbacks than the actual story of the arc. Oh, I forgot to mention that the story is organized by arcs and not seasons. My bigger problem with the story is that there is a poor connection of the arcs or a goal, like, Naruto wants to be hokage and the story is focused on this goal but in Fairy Tail there isn't a goal so the arcs are just there, you can mix the order and small things changes. The "power of friendship" and the amount of fan-service are others things that bothers me but not so much as the lack of a cohesion story. A good thing about the story is the world building, really cool and well done, very immersive.

4) Art

The art is very good. Character design is what sells a lot of people to this show. And this is all that I can say. I am not an artist or a really good analytic so I can't make a deep analysis. So move on.

5)Sound

The ost of Fairy Tail is the best thing of this show, it is SO good . The theme music, the sad music, the openings, omg, everything is great. But again, I can't make a deeper analyse so move on.

6)Enjoyment and overall

On the "introduction" I said that I like Fairy Tail, I think it is a good show and deserves a 7 out of 10. "But why? "-you might ask-"You said that the story is the weakest part of the show and the story is the most important thing about an anime, so how you liked?" Well, you might don't understand but to like Fairy Tail and have a good time the story isn't actually the most important thing. Every flaw of the show's story can be ignored because of the good characters and the very immerse universe created. Yes, the problems are still there and the anime would be way better with a more cohesion story, less fan-service and less "power of friendship" but these things don't make Fairy Tail a bad or horrible anime. Fairy Tail can create a good atmosphere and you can fell part of the guild, and this felling is good and this is why I like Fairy Tail but don't think is a 10/10 anime, it is just good.
