The only character in FT that should die is Zeref. Because he desires to die. I'm looking forward how they will solve his case.

I still think the final boss will be the so called god that cursed him and I esspecially don't think Natsu will be able to kill him after he finds out Zeref's full name
Yeah bro, Natsu is gonna TnJ the absolute fuck outta him once he realizes they're brothers.

LOL, the funny thing is he wouldn't have to if it was not for hades who made Zeref's go from a crybaby life loving dude into a heartless cold guy who wants to finish this era.

I have been hoping for this twist because the dude needs to pay for causing soo much problems for Zeref and because otherwise the ending is toooo predictable with the final battle being between the hero, his brother who wants to die, and the one who killed his father

Killing off one or two main-ish characters would not make it any more realistic. If it were to be realistic it's gonna have to pull out all the stops, like GoT. And as we know this is shounen.
There's two kinds of people you can't win an argument against:
One - Too dumb to tell right from wrong.
Two - Too stubborn to admit they are wrong.

Not to mention DEATH =/= Consequences.

Cheap mangaka tend to kill off random characters to set up grimderp tone, but what really is needed is consequence.


This dude nailed it. Killing off supporting cast to make things "darker and edgier" is the hallmark of poor writing 99% of the time, and most of us realize this when we mature out of our angsty teenage phase. I doubt anyone would buy that sort of tone shift in FT.

Yep. In the arc after the GMG, Hiro surpassed all his prior BS.

I want there to be consequences to their battles. Every time they battle its like they are getting their asses kicked and then nakama power up bs kicks in or someone comes in right in the nick of time and saves them. Im not saying that the main characters like natsu gray erza or lucy should die, but maybe like in this War of Fiore arc the thunder legion or one of them dies seeing as how they were literally blown up. Believe me I love the show but it wouldn't hurt to show that everyone in FT are freaking immortal.

Imagine just imagine, that one day one of these apocalypses are just too much for fairy tale and they all die apart from Natsu, and the series spins off as watching Natsu turn in a crazy traumatized person.


That would be boring. Like he's not already annoying enough, will have to see 100 chapters of him screaming and shouting until he manages to nakama punch "fate" and bring back everyone. Good, right.

Fairy Tail is a very "What you see is what you get" series so..if you are expecting characters to die left and right then you are gravely mistaken.

I do think that Jellal might have a death mark on him due to the character he is based on from Rave Master(there is an interesting comparison of similarities with both series).

Time will tell.

Killing of characters for the sake of it is stupid because death as a literary device would lose all impact.

Plus it doesn't fit the tone of the series.

Characters dying doesn't make a series better or worse.

I wouldn't mind everyone dying tbh

Killing off characters is not the problem,forcing them into near death situations and pretending that they are about to die,but then save them everytime by the infamous nakama power,is a problem.


This...so much!!
The near death "will they die, won't they die" crap worked in the beginning, but it wore off after 100+ bloody episodes of it. It would be a different story if it were less predictable, but the death drama is no longer drama when we already know that the plot armour will pwn all.

I don't think death necessarily makes a shounen anime "better" or more tense, but Fairy Tail's growing pretty stale with the rinse and repeat routine and I feel like the death of a major or supporting character would throw some actual drama in the mix. it'd show us that there really is something at stake and something to be lost, as opposed to just telling us.

Maybe having Makarov or Gildarts die would set something into motion since we know they're some of the strongest characters. Or perhaps having one of the "Fairy Tail Five" pop their clogs would add actual drama...I wouldn't mind seeing Wendy die tbh...or maybe Gray...he's always been angsty, but goddamn that boy needs a good slap in the face!!!

The problem is Fairy Tail's trying to have its cake and eat it. It keeps talking about how highly the stakes are being ramped up and how each new enemy is nothing like anything they've ever faced before, but in execution it's all pretty much the same. Either keep the stakes low or actually let there be some major consequences. I think Mashima realized this which is why his recent chapters are awkwardly shuffling back and forth towards such consequences (Natsu's tumor that was instantly healed, Laxus' MBP that were instantly cured, Sherria being the one to lose her magic instead of a main or even secondary FT member, etc...).

Maybe not crazy, but maybe a sad war torn person to emphasize that fighting is actually bad.


Hmmm I would still prefer Gray or Lucy be the one traumatized, they are the more relateable ones as far as main characters go. Wendy is a little young at this moment, but ye, she could do the job as well (and grow into an even more badass than she already is) Natsu would be a risky choice imo. But ye, I like your idea.

If killing off characters is all a story like Fairy Tail needs to improve, then Akame ga Kill! wouldn't suck.

You say it is interesting. I say it is more the lack of capability to think of new characters.

I kind of agree. As in it is not the fact of someone being away. But still you can create quite a good story around the deaths of some important developed characters.

xD To be fair you have a VERY fair point since the author has taken two designs from One Piece(not all of these comparisons I think are correct to "copying" but geez did the author get a lot of "inspiration")

Now i have to say i was more referring to Characters such Gray and Hamrio, Lucy and Elie, etc. Gildarts comparison is actually the only one i thought was to much. Those other are still pretty far apart man can't really blame them on those tbh.

Fary tail on some points is very weak and certainly isn't always the quality show. But it is fun.

Stating Gray is angsty is not only the worst thing said in this thread, but it's also akin to stating Yato for example from Noragami is angsty. Ridiculous nonsense.
