A new magazine called Monthly Fairy Tail will launch and every 2,980-yen (about US$30) issue will include a DVD with four television anime episodes.
Fairy Tail zero will be done by Hiro Mashiro himself and it will also carry spinoff manga by other creators every month and Mashima indicated one of them will be about Gray, including pin-up posters, character profiles, and other content.

I don't know. Fairy Tail just gets less and less interesting for me, and eventually i'll drop it anyway like any other eternal-running shonen

Instead of "working so hard" to make a lot of chapters per week or to make spin-offs specials etc.. He could spend this time working on the real plot and do less Fan sevice (it already reached an amount where you can say the manga is more fan service than plot)

I was looking forward to it till I saw that it would be someone with little dynamic to express such as Mavis. I mean, if we're doing a spinoff, shouldn't it be of someone outside of the main guild? Jellal and the rest of Crime Sorcière could use a spinoff far over this.

Probably will read for a while.

At least he's a prolific writer unlike some mangaka who always ends putting his series on hiatus.

Because she is eternal loli ghost?

Joke aside there is many thing that can be explored from Mavis like how she create Fairy Tail three great spell, how she earned her title as master of strategy and of course what her relation to Zeref is.
Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together.

Filler would imply that its either non-canon or made specifficaly to prolong the storyline.

Backstory of characters is a crucial part of narrative and calling it "filler" is outright ignorant.

YorozuyaGinSan said:

Because she is from the time in the storyline we KNOW least about. Because she lived during time when


Its got less to do with who she is as character and more with in WHICH timespan that happens.

Ahh. Damn. I wanted a romance manga.

I can't say I'm interested in this, seems better if he would just do it in the original manga, since it's not like he has a plot to maintain. It can be added and be relevant to one of the next arcs, most of them feel like spin off adventures of the guild anyway.

Wow..FT is popular enough to have its own magazine. I hope the other authors of this magazine don't exploit the ecchi nature of the original manga and get overboard with the fanservice. -.-

On a side note, I like the new designs for the upcoming spring anime. & I gotta say I was surprised to see Aya Hirano reprise her role as Lucy. I guess this means the Haruhi franchise can be rekindled with new seasons & specials now that Aya-san can reprise her role as Haruhi.

I doubt Aya Hirano voicing as Haruhi has anything to do with it getting a sequel/special etc. But agreed, I was surprised too. Nobody can voice Lucy the same way now that the voice has grown in our hearts.

Same thing that sets Hashirama or Gold Roger apart from any other stock character. An important character of the background of the series that we know little about, who has been involved in important things we know little about.

Aya Hirano was always able to reprise her role as Haruhi. The limiting factor there is that the series author has released all of two volumes of Haruhi since 2007. For comparison, in that same timeframe, Reki Kawahara has released 16 volumes of Accel World, 14 volumes of Sword Art Online, and 2 volumes of Sword Art Online: Progressive. Mamare Touno has released 8 volumes of Maoyu Mao Yusha, and 7 volumes of Log Horizon. Ryohgo Narita has released 11 volumes of Baccano, 10 volumes of Durarara!, 5 volumes of Etsusa Bridge, and 3 or 4 miscellaneous other volumes.

It should be obvious from that why their publishers are pushing for anime series for them, while Haurhi's publisher is willing to leave the series languishing.

I agree! :) I think Aya-san's voice suits Lucy to a tee and no other seiyuu can outmatch her imo

Thanks for the clarification! I really don't know where to find reliable answers to my anime-related questions so I always turn to yahoo answers. The consensus to the discontinuation of the FT anime and Haruhi franchise was cos of Aya-san's scandal. I really thought that was a strange reason, if that was the case.

Slightly OT, now that there are 11 Haruhi novels released currently, there's hope for more Haruhi anime adaptations :D

Unfortunately it's not that simple, it's a combination of factors with the author's lack of output being the biggest. Here's a good rundown as to why we aren't getting more Haruhi anime:

Yup, quantity over quality. With 1 chapter a week I'd doubt FT would be any better though.
Which doesn't matter anyway as long as the the fans are pleased
