The art in both mangas is very much alike. Also, there's always a going-on talk about 'Nakama'. The two main characters resemble each other (not to mention they're very random XD). In short, you will find many situations in Fairy Tail where you'll think "Omg this is just like One Piece!" ^____^
same author and i think the story seems better so far.
Both manga's have similar characters which in both manga's do quests to earn money, or just for fun. In Monster Hunter Orage there's more of a goal then in Fairy Tail, which varies from time to time.
Both have: - Endless adventure based on the nakama powah and fights plus power upgrades. - A group of friends with powers with similar personalities (Ali/Natsu= energetic guy plus comic relief that gets fired up when its needed; Alladin/Wendy plus Lucy=A blue haired kid that seems weak but its not and its main goal is to make friends/ and is capable of summoning a helper(Genie/key spirit); Morgiana/Erza= serious and strong, fights like hell and has a tragic past related to slavery and bullying; Sinbad/Gray: Likes to strip a lot; Kougyoku/Juvia: has a crush on the guy that likes to strip and has the power of water, also suffers from a drastic personality change when is fighting and it used to be from the "enemy side" until she met the main gang). - Enemies becoming friends/Friends becoming enemies If you like one you´ll definitely enjoy the other;)
Same author, same drawing style, same kind of story: people with powers. If you're enjoying Fairy Tail, you'll enjoy Monster Soul for sure. They both look like they're the same series.
natsu the main character of fairy tail has many commons with naruto..also the story of fairy tail reminds me naruto..the way the characters help each other..etc

it's a cool manga..
Both mangas have a guy that can transform into a dragon (Natsu uses dragon slayer magic and Keel is actually a dragon in human form). There is a cute girl who uses other characters to fight (Lucy with her spirits and Ravi with monsters). "Blue" - the name of the water guy in "Buster Keel" is similar to Grey in Fairy Tail. Blue and Keel don't get along, just like how Natsu and Grey argue all the time.
In both mangas, there is also a guild for information and work and levels for each job.
In Buster Keel, the protagonist are all looking for someone. In Fairy Tail, Natsu is looking for the Dragon Igneel.
The characters and design, especially the setting, look pretty similar in both mangas, even though they are by different mangakas.
They both are action and adventure based. The main character fights to protect his friends. Funny and serious and sometimes you might feel like crying. One of the four main mangas: Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Fairy Tail.
Yoshikawa Miki was an assistant of Mashima Hiro when he was makin' Groove Adventure Rave, so that's what can see the evident influence that she got from him: The surprised faces, gags and the style of drawing (Macchi looks like Natsu for example)

Natsu, Gray and Erza are like the yankees in Yankee-kun to Megane-chan (Adachi, Shinagawa and Izumi), and there are someone who has common sense (Lucy & Chiba), they are in an Organitation who helps people with troubles (Fairy Tail Guild, and the Student Council)

Both mangakas, likes to draw werid characters (for example, the sun-face of Rave Ichiya, the girlfriends of Nerima or that strange teacher who teachs Shinagawa)

Yoshikawa and Mashima are very good friends too, that's why they make Fairy Megane, a crossover of their respective series.
Both series are a continuous line of story arcs that involve fighting. The characters have some similar roles and personalities as well.
They are both Shounen Magazine titles,about mages,with very similar fights and comedy.Who like very much much manga about magic,sure you love both!
Both main cahar are strong and be in a jorney about to find yours masters and know new friends that be strong too, lol , both have a lot of funny and action, intense battles and super powers.
Soul Eater is a little bit darker, but there are some similarities, the art styles are very similar.
For some reason as I read Double Arts, Fairy Tail came into my mind. The stories aren't at all similar (FT is about the random adventures of a guild of mages/ DA is about two people who have to hold hands forever as they look for a cure for a deadly disease) but I felt a similarity in them. I believe it was mostly the characters, the way they acted and reacted to things. Also the setting of them seemed to be similar and the art is somewhat. Still if you like one then you should at least check out the other one.
same author, similar artwork and storyline.
both are about mages..both are cool and mainstream. the art is 10 and the rumor is great,,,xD
-both really funny
-characters are both unique
-both have awesome fighting scenes

i also suggest the gintama anime and the fairy tail anime ;)
Fairy Tail was probably influenced by Saint Seiya's concept of different types of constellation and levels of them like bronze/silver/gold, while strongest of them (gold) related to zodiac signs. Both contains a lot of fighting, but Saint Seiya is muuuch more serious and don't have any ecchi elements.
Action packed and leaves me jaw dropped
> Both have groups of 'warriors' with different skills - that being either magical or talent based. > Both have medieval themes in costume design, weapons, architecture, landscapes, etc > Both have a large character platform introducing new characters nearly every chapter. > Both have good fighting scenes and art - where each panel is a pure joy to view and i find myself taking my time with each scene to take it all in. > Both have simple plots constructed to deliver action upon action, heros fighting vilians and victories & defeats. > Both have mild ecchi - big boobies, spray-painted costumes, etc
The main characters have special powers and allmighty friendship.

They also have similar personalities.

Both manga have action, adventure, comedy, fantasy and supernatural.
a lot of the characters seem similar to each other and they both have their share of Shounen manga cliches. Similarities - Natsu and Dohran are fighters who care a lot about protecting their friends and uses fire-elemental powers (not to mention they even kinda look alike) - Lucy and Anna are the fan-service female sidekicks who don't do very much and have problems that happen to their fathers (and they also kinda look alike) - same kinds of adventurous feelings and happy to serious moods Differences - Dohran takes place in a fantasy-like Edo era of Japan and Fairy Tail takes place in a fantasy world - No guilds in Dohran and it only has 2 main characters - Dohran is more light-hearted than Natsu and is less willing to fight
Instead of magic powers, you have magic weapons lol The fights, as well as the characters are very similar! The development of the story is also very identical! Many adventures and dozens of fights... Worth to give it a try!
Toriko is like a more violent and mature version of Fairy Tail. Both feature weird looking characters with even weirder characteristics. Also, both have lots of fantastic animals and are shounen battlemangas.
Both have the same feel to them. Not to mention the main characters are similar.
it has the same sense of comedy a lot of action there both shounens and both the main characters are looking for someone & there also both supernatural
Although the aesthetic and narrative of these two serialisations are not that similar, they both share a strong emphasis on group battles. In Fairy Tail, battles are often between two or more guilds; whereas in Baka to Test, these are facilitated between two or more classrooms.
Guilds, wizards, magic, comedy, cute talking pet sidekicks, missions, monsters and dragons. Very similar concept.
Lucy like Hana seeks her dream job, and also alike, they both find their dream job is filled with unrealistically bizarre characters. Both are fighting mangas, oumagadoki in a much more bizarre sense than fairy tail. Both are also Weekly Shounen Jump mangas.

I would say that fairy tail is done better but oumagadoki is the more creative concept. Fairy tail has been making manga for a lot longer as well. Oumagadoki was made in 2010
theyre both really funny shounen mangas! i love them both even though theyre a bit different if you like fairy tail KHR is a great manga to read and i think youd enjoy it a lot! teehee!
Ral Grad and Fairy Tail are both set in mythical world where people have magic, and they both center around a quirky guy and his rag-tag bunch. Ral Grad is shorter and a little darker, but still cute and funny.
They both have a similar art style with a the main character wanting to become stronger.
In bouth are team's that complite missions and bouth teams are all than normal, but aspirin goes a littre more in extreme and comedy.
And bouth teams doesn't know how to hold back so peoples normaly hate them after complition of mission, since normaly half of town is missing.
And aspirin have worst possible personalitys for main characters.
Two of the main-story related characters, Tasha and Natsu relate with very similar characteristics and personalities, especially their ability to grow stronger through their emotions, and they both have a partner whom they share a close relationship, like a close family. The main teams consist of a group that have known each other for a long period of time, at times being quite crude and violent with one another (Almost everytime, this is for comedic purposes), but in each group, the team are as close as family, willing to protect each other with their lives. [PS: If you haven't read Fairy Tail, then I would recommend that you read Witch Hunter first. It's better to start off with the serious/moderately comedy, then heading for epic/highly comedic.]
