However, it's got other things that you might not normally find. The character relationships are well-developed and the show focuses a lot more on feelings than you might see in others of it's genre. Each character has his or her own colorful past and you can really get to know them on a personal level. Some of them have some seriously twisted baggage. The characters change, fall in love, begin to hate; it's quite the ride. The stories for these individual characters and some of their interactions might even cause you to tear up.
The art is bright and awesome, and the whole show kind of makes you want to be a member of the Fairy Tail guild, meet the characters and be in that world with them. Overall I give it an 8, mostly because it's a shonen that kept me, a grown man, interested in it. Mostly it's tailored for a younger audience, but a lot of enjoyment can be found in it by almost everyone.
