I just started this and thoroughly enjoyed it. As my friend said, at first I was skeptical. I looked at it and went, "PSHH. This is just One Piece with magic."

And then we realized after reading it, "Holy crap. This is ONE PIECE. With MAGIC! How could we have ever doubted the formula?!?!"

I can see myself following this manga in the future.

One piece with magic, huh? I've always made a point out of never comparing a manga with another manga, and I'm always too objective when reading new material. In other words, I started reading it with no expectations whatsoever.

Then, right off the bat, even before starting, I find out Natsu gets motion sickness on any kind of transportation, lol. I also liked the eyes of ppl to which that embarrasing drop of tear comes out. It's a nice switch. Well, off to chapter 2.

Love this. Its sooo much like one piece and DBZ where the main charcter is strong, pig (not looks, the ammount of food that they eat), and isn't that brilliant. And since I love one piece and loved DBZ Im getting hooked to this even though I barely read manga.

Reason why I started is because when the fall 2009 anime were announced there was hundreds of comments from people saying fairy will be great. So I took a glance at the cover and stuff and found the art is extremely similar to one piece.

I just finished catching up with the Soul Eater manga, so I thought I'd pick up another shounen to pass the time and I must say that I am hooked!

Super psyched that this is being animated! Looks like a fun story!

Interesting start... so then it's like OP with Magic... might be the case, the truth is that I've never put a lot of attention to OP and I've just read the oneshot prequels and seen an Anime Episode which I saw as plain....

First of all it was a powerful start... 80 pages in the first chapter is not just a simple thing... that's too much... and I rather think before hand that 80 pages are way too much for a first chapter, but I'm surprised now that I've finiched reading it and found out that it's not that bad! The mangaka really took advantage of the whole Page count and made a nice job introducing us the main characters

Maybe the premise is lame, they had to fight with a Wanted Guy and so they defeated him with some awesome moves... I had to agree that the opening batle was quite flashy and nice I really liked it... No kidding... now my problem here is that it might lack of something... I'll just wait and see if that actually happens... SO then... Lucy has to have a goo reason why she wanna join Fairy Tail... Thought at the beginning that FT meant something else... But it's Natsus Guild name huh... nice

Beautiful and great first chapter!!!
Lucy, Natsu and Happy, three characters very persona and natural.
The draw was nice, very nice and clean, easy to understand, with a plot with action, mistery, surprises and great story untold!! xD

Drop it. Drop it while you can, it will only get worse later on.

Lol yikes...good to know. I'm really just watching to be in-the-know for what's mainstream but I probably won't make it far.

If you like shounens then you will probably enjoy this pretty far in, the problem begins later on. It's not as bad as people make it out to be but the last arc has been as bad as people say it is.

I'd still say I love the first season, or atleast the first 250ish chapters or so. But it went downhill afterwards.

i was actually surprised when i saw this isn't drawn by oda. and i actually dislike one piece, so it took me a lot of time [and my girlfriend recommending it to me] to pick it up.
and it was surprisingly entertaining. i have to admit i started reading it on chapter 105 and got interested there to get here, but the world building is catchy.
i sure hope it's not that much like one piece anyway.

Great chapter, even though I have seen the anime fully, kinda wanted to read the manga, and did not dissapoint even tho the art style differs from the anime and closer to One Piece

An excellent first chapter, and my first dip into manga as a whole. The artwork is brilliant and it was easy to understand everything that went on.

So many great moments in this chapter, Aquarius sweeping Lucy and the boat away, Natsu eating fire and of course Natsu revealing that he's a member of the Fairy Tail guild.

Definitely continuing reading this.
