And there was no seven year time skip.
Far too often am I seeing these wild, outlandish claims that Mashima hates his side characters because they aren’t utilized as often as they want or aren’t given main character spotlight all the time. And you know what? It’s completely fair to think your favorite character should have more moments and get more spotlight. Nothing wrong with that, but to start saying that Mashima hates his characters because they aren’t given that time is just crazy. At some point we just have to be realistic
The Fairy Tail guild has A LOT of characters. A lot of named characters. We can’t reasonably expect all of them to get main character treatment because there’s just too many characters present to possibly expect equal treatment for all of them. Like when people say Mashima hates Mirajane, or Gajeel, or Juvia, or Cana, the Thunder Legion, etc (the Juvia one I truly don’t understand considering she’s the only side character with her own day that Mashima does art for lmao). That being said, I will say though that Lisanna was indeed a fumble. He definitely should’ve done more with her if he was gonna bring her back
Fact of the matter is Team Natsu (Natsu, Lucy, Gray, Erza, and Wendy) are the main characters. They’re gonna be Mashima’s priority. Especially now in 100YQ considering the 100YQ is Team Natsu’s mission and not Fairy Tail’s. Honestly the fact that Mashima included the guild in the first 2 arcs of 100YQ when he really didn’t have to was great. Mashima is going to focus on Team Natsu before focusing on Gajeel and Juvia, and he’s going to focus on those two before focusing on Laxus, Mira, and Cana, and so on. That’s just how it is when you have so many characters
So while you are valid for wanting more of your favorite characters, be realistic and please don’t jump to the conclusion that Mashima hates x character(s)😭
I just saw a post saying that Mirajane is overrated in terms of power and shouldn’t be considered Erza’s equal. I can agree that she isn’t on Erza's level, but I think the idea that she’s overrated is off the mark. It feels like Mashima just isn’t interested in developing her character. It's been years, and it's not that she’s not powerful; it’s more like she’s underused and made to look weak. What hope do we have?
When was the last time we saw Mirajane use any transformation besides her weakest one, Satan Soul? Even in that form, she mostly resorts to punches and kicks instead of using her magic. I mean, is that really all it can do? We’ve seen her go all out against Freed in that form, and it has way more power than what we’re shown.
Let’s talk about some of her other take overs:
Demon God Halphas: Some say it’s not canon, but honestly, does it matter at this point? We’ve seen way more from Halphas than from Alegria throughout the series. That form is not only beautiful but also incredibly powerful – like, it could easily take down a city.
Sitri: This form is also stunning and super strong. Remember the Sitri that headbutted a dragon? Where has that power gone? It’s very sad that Hiro only seems to remember her weakest form.
Seilah: How many characters in FT can even counter it? If stamina is Mirajane's problem, then Seilah would be perfect for her since she doesn’t need to move much.
Alegria: This is her most powerful form which evaporated an entire sea with her presence alone. If someone can do that, they could probably wipe out countries and huge islands. Just imagine if she actually fought in that form. But instead, we mostly see her in her weakest state, making her seem useless compared to others.
To reiterate, I really think Mirajane isn’t overrated. It’s just that Mashima doesn’t seem to care about her character. It’s such a shame because she has the potential to be one of the strongest characters in the series. And it’s frustrating to see people defend this kind of writing without realizing that it just isn’t good storytelling, no matter how you slice it.
My text is cut off on my screen and google hasn’t been any help in terms of how exactly I fix this. I’m on ps5 and can’t find any setting to make it fit my screen properly
Hello, everyone. As the title implies, I am curious as to what crack shipping everyone is heavily interested in. This question came up out of curiosity since all the pairs I usually see posted (i.e., Natsu x Lucy, Erza x Jellal, Laxus x Mira) have some sort of merit of being canon in the anime. But what if they weren't and anyone was allowed to hook up with anyone? What would be the most out-there ship you can think of, and why do you believe that those two characters could get together?
For me, the crack ship that I am the most interested in is between Natsu and Meredy for the sole reason that they have pink hair.
Trying to get back nto art
So I saw an insta reel talking about some anime's problems. And fairy tail was on there with just "Power of Friendship".
And I know not everything is to everyone's taste, and sometimes it can get annoying. But that's the beauty of Fairy Tail. Their friends are what they're fighting for.
And sometimes, yeah it can be a bit annoying when you know that they shouldn't win. But idk I just love it. And it's not like the story isn't good, or that the characters are boring. They're amazing characters with even better stories to them. And they're all different and interesting.
I just love Fairy Tail so much. I love my found family.

My bbg GMG Lucy I love her sm she deserved better 😞
I just watched episode 125 of the anime, the first filler episode after the time skip, and it under the radar especially how it fore shadowed stuff that happens later, either events or characters.
For example, the Gajeel and Levy interaction, how Gajeel he doesn't want to dance, Jet and Droy argue with each other over Levy, and Gjaeel just swoops in having changed his mind. They do the exact same gag note for note during Mira and Jenny's match in the Grand Magic Games, granted that part of the match is anime original as well, so this episode did it first.
Another are the three characters introduced here, Alceto, Balsamico and Valveno they all have similarities to Hisui, Toma, and Arcadios. So fore shadowing there.
Also a under the radar part when Valveno is explaining his motivation, and Natsu says he doesn't buy it, Erza quickly retorts him because she can relate to what Alceto and Valveno feel because of her and Jellal.
100 years quest sent him back to the Twink dungeon 😞
So what are the official teams of Fairy Tail? Unlike Naruto, it is not concrete who goes on missions, some times a team takes fewer members on a mission (like the founding trio members of Team Natsu, or Erza, Wendy, and Carla when they put on the Rave Master play, etc), sometimes they go solo. But let's do our best to put together a roster here of who goes on missions together.
We start with Team Natsu, while not an official name unlike some of the others team I will name, we know the members, 5 wizards and 2 Exceeds, Natsu, Lucy, Happy (who I think of as the OG Team Natsu members) Gray, Erza, Wendy, and Carla.
Thunder Legion, Laxus, Fried, Bixlow and Evergreen.
Shadow Gear, Levy, Jet, and Droy the official members, but can we just put Gajeel and Pantherlily as part of the team, Gajeel kind of married into it (I know they are not married, but he and Levy are starting a family)
Struass Siblings, at least 2 of the 3, I don't know Mira's status as an active mage, but I imagine Elfman and Lisanna probably work together.
Other characters I am not too sure of, Juvia is often up for grabs as an extra for a team, with it being Team Natsu, or the Thunder Legion because of relationship with Gajeel, but also maybe a Mira fill in for the Struass Siblings because of her and Lisanna seem to be implied to have a bond at least in Lisanna's mind.
Cana I could also see hang with any of the teams, but mostly I think of her working solo missions like her father, and thus less people she has to share the drinks with.
Obviously we have Alzack and Bisca
As for the others, I do think Kianna and Laki are on the same team with maybe Max there to complete the team, maybe Warren as well.
So i got some character ether crystals to level up origins but how do i use them do i just keep them in my inventory or do i have to go somewhere to use them
