Fairy Tail
| >Why is fairy tail so underrated? >why do so many people hate it? > Im on episode 18 > in my opinion it's really good >So why do people hate it so much??? >What's the problem??? > Im on episode 18 Come on guy, there's a 175 episodes of this specific entry, you're barely a tenth of the way through, and yet you're questioning the fandom's reception? At least get halfway through before making this thread. |

| Because: -People who aren't into battle shounen still end up watching it because it's popular, but because it's not their genre, they're not going to like it. -Veteran battle shounen watchers claiming it's the same as everything else, when that means nothing to someone new to the genre or for someone who isn't easily bothered by the common tropes. -Because people somehow got it into their heads that fighting for your friends/family is a bad concept (therefore, it must be objectively bad), when they fail to realise many people do like it; it's just not for them. Because people need something to hate on in order to make themselves look cool and hip (or at least, that's what they hope for). Many popular shows get bashed for being the worst thing ever, when at worst, they might just be average pieces of entertainment that happen to appeal to a broad audience. -Because tribalism. I like Naruto/Bleach/One Piece/HunterxHunter, and every other show that's even remotely the same is trash by default and nothing more but a rip-off of whatever I happen to like. |
| You see, when you make the final fights an asspull and nakama power to a point it becomes redundant, not to speak the characters are basically like slaves in the guild who has equal lines to Giorno from Jojo, and that the most hype villain in the series get one shotted by a bullshit power dubbed "Flame of Emotion" which is one of the worst power name I could ever think of, you shouldn't be surprised. |

As for me, - I love battle shounen - I love nakama power (though FT doing it wrong mostly) - I love magic - I'm already too attached to the characters now that I'll stick to this series no matter how bad it's getting In short, it's not underrated. I recognized the flaws and understand where the haters came from. Still, it's my favorite anime and I gave it a 10. |

| Personally, I always thought this anime was overrated? No? I dont hate it but i do dislike it. I dont like the characters or story it just bores me... |
 |
| Well I personally hate it for reasons including but not limited to: Style over substance, irrational things happen because they look cool while development of characters or plot do not matter. The fights, may look cool but falls under the category of " over 9000 kicks and punches" The romance is fucking laughable It's nothing inherently wrong with fighting for your friends, but the fact that you get a fucking ssj power up because of that is ridiculous. The fact that the heroes win simpley because they're morally right is just plain bad imo. It's written in a way that the plot can continue forever, then again you can say that about most shonen. However, FT is predictable and you'll soon find out that the author will just simply reuse old arcs. As someone has already stated, the author just fucking lost it, i realized that when i finished the edolas arc. The characters are either really annoying or extremely underdeveloped, sometimes both. I found myself rooting for the bad guys most of the times. The only character i enjoyed watching was plue. Natsu is a waste of skin ( or 2D animation in this case) he says the most stupidest shit ever with a stragiht face " If you're a guild, take care of your friends" like just shut the fuck up and leave, dude. He said that after defeating a dude that's supposed to be stronger than him. How did he win you ask ? Why, the power of Nakama of course. I swear the power of Nakama is Natsu's fucking heroin, he needs that shit everytime he fights someone. Which of course makes the fights involving him really lame. |

| the more i watch the more fairy tail is looking like some friendship cult that tried to advertise their friendship cult |
| Sonic X is basically an isekai |
| Fairy Tail is utter garbage. Go watch something else OP.

Other shounens use the friendship is power bs, but not as much as fairy tail. -I hate FT because they take the power of friendship too far and is overall repetitive and boring. Also, the excessive fanservice makes it worse. -I like battle shounen, and I think its crap Fairy Tail is bascially how you not write a battle shounen. Also, every other battle shounen >>>>>> FT. |

| 1)fights are very simple almost no strategy or skill involved 2)friendship power is overused to the 100th degree this makes no fight serious because you know somebody will have a friend flashback and rape op villain in one shot. 3)World building is very basic compared to other big shonnen 4)Boringships 5)Zero character development 6)Magic system isnt complicated enough needs more rules |
| Its trash in every way (hate nakama power, the characters are either bland or annoying, the story is nonsense, its too cheesy etc.), the only reason I watched it is because of the PLOT (the mangaka needs to just stop pretending that he can write and focus on that). |
| Because Hiro never even fucking attempts to get out of the mediocre zone...... or wait maybe he has tried..? If he has that makes things subsequently worse lol I'll leave fairy tail to Generation Z |

If he has that makes things subsequently worse lol I'll leave fairy tail to Generation Z I don't think he did, he basically rehashed the same shit again and again and always relied on lazy & cheap writing. I have never seen a Shounen abuse nakama power this much. Not sure if I can even blame him, FT still managed to be popular as hell for some reason and he didn't even have to try in terms of story and characters. |

| It is so overrated. I can't believe it is rated over 8 Even many echii show that I have seen have better plot/fights that this. Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry (echii aniem) for example has way better and serious fights than anything from FT |

A lot of Fairy Tail haters actually were people who used to tolerate or even liked it it but got annoyed with the excessive amount of lazy nakama powerups, plot holes, bad characterization and underwhelming fights ever since the (crappy) timeskip. But keep making these lame strawmans if it makes you feel any better. |
| You're only at ep 18. If you continue watching, the friendship speech gets annoying. The guild became too op. Also, when was FT underrated? ._. |
| yeah I don't know, it looks cool but I personally haven't watched it |
| Gnyo ho! |
