Says who though? Unless something else has been said officially, I feel it's completely fine to consider the other spin-offs part of the canon.


Given the ludicrous liberties that Ice trail has taken at least it's rather obvious. Zero is the story of Mavis and the founding of Fairy Tail. Again WRITTEN and DRAWN by Mashima himself. That one is without a doubt canon. Ice Trail is nothing more than authorized fanservice.


Keyword being authorized. Official. Ice Trail is the official backstory of Gray, and if that doesn't make it canon, iunno what does.

Pretty good episode for a filler. I actually didn't have to skip through some scenes like I normally have to for the past billion filler episodes.

Oh yea. THIS IS A FILLER. I read the manga, I'm fully caught up with it and it's not part of it.


Not everything is in manga.

This is an adaptation of second fairy tail novel "Every Day after GMG".

Actually no. All three are canon.

I hope this filler arc is short. God, please make it short >_<

While I also yearn for the return of the events from manga, some stuff in this episode has actually interested me, because I think it will be connected with the stuff happening later in the manga:

Mashima likes retconning some stuff in the manga with those fillers and that's what I think may be going to happen here, with the creature introduced in this episode being akin to that another one, which we'll see in the future, making it a little more understandable, hopefully.


About the episode, I was surprised to hear all the past VA appear in this episode, I thought it'd be hard to do that but seemingly it is not. Shame that those moments were super short. I especially loved when they went to Mermaid Heel^^
Seeing Natsu deeply care about the creature and welcome it "to the family" so nonchalantly was weird, I had no idea that he can act like that, mainly because he does not act like that with Happy or anybody else really..
Also no idea why they insisted n the Sabertooth collab again, we had Yukino the entire previous arc and now we go again with that guild. Maybe it's because Sting is quite the fan favourite if you check the fan arts :P I do like him.

No it is not. IT is adaptation of second light novel. Light novels are part of canon.
I mean I know it's an adaption of the light novel or what not, but it's still a sort of filler in my opinion. I mean, it's not apart of the manga chapters of Fairy Tail, it's some light novel that's pretty much separate from the main story. When I say to get back to being canon, I mean I want it to get to the Sun Village Arc already

I guess a lot of people should realize that there is also a light novel of Fairy Tail other than the manga. This episode comes from there. And seems like the word "filler" is misused here due to that. As long as episodes were adapted from the source materials, it'll always be canon, even when the arc seems to be side-tracked from the main story arcs. And those omakes were canon too even though a lot of people think this is unfortunate to be the case from what I read.

Now commenting about this episode: I like the way how the magic council introduced the exchange program. Seems like Makarov really should've let other members to go instead xD But then the humours might disappear. I wonder if Fairy Tail is the only guild that can mess things up easily o.o

Okay by your logic when they adapt FT Zero, Ice Trail and Fairy Girls it will also be filer because it is not in "main manga", LOL.

Just like omake adaptations these few weeks, this is adaptation of a canon material. So not a filler.

Unfortunately it has not been translated yet. The novel only came out over the summer so it's new, it will be probably be at least next summer until it gets a translation. All that's known about what happens in it are from scans like the ones I posted and brief summaries of the beginning like on the wiki.

Whether or not the light novel is canon, nobody can really say for absolute sure. But that doesn't even matter in this case, where did you get the idea that just because something is canon it can't be filler? Those two things aren't mutually exclusive.
I can understand people saying this is filler, because that really is the purpose these episodes serve. The same with the omake adaptations. To fill. We are taking a break from the main Fairy Tail story to look at some other stuff, and whether or not that stuff "actually" happened in the made-up timeline of this fictional imaginary world is crazy irrelevant.

Actually according to tvtropes this is still filler.

"the defining aspect of filler is the ''lack'' of series momentum. Filler can be safely ignored without any loss of important information."

Pretty much sums up this portion of the anime.

I agree with you, whether something is canon or not doesn't really matter in determining if something is filler. Really, if anything the word filler has been misused and bastardized by english anime fans for so long that many seem to believe the canonicity of something matters in defining its status as filler.

You are the type of cancer that calls every character development episode a filler, aren't you?

So far every omake adapted had significance and htis LN adaptation too



So while the episodes are there "to fill in space", they are not fillers. THey are a canon material that expands upon important concepts and fleshes out characters.

Filler episodes are episodes meant to "fill in space". No one said some of them aren't adaptations of canon material. And yes, while this material does flesh out characters and such, it's not crucial to the overall progression of the plot (the sequence of events that move the story forward).



And yes, every once in a while the main chapter count does have its own little story disconnected from the plot, like the stage play and such. But the anime blended them in with other plot-progressing chapters all the same.

I pray the DVD will fix this like they did the rest of the new series. Seriously, you have no idea how much the DVDs cleaned up the artwork. And I also hope there won't be too much of this...atrocity in the upcoming arcs.

When I saw cute little Kemo-Kemo, I honestly wasn't expecting a visit to Blue Pegasus, Lamia Scale and Mermaid Heel. I thought Kemo-Kemo would end up turning into a demon monster thing for a filler episode. I'm guessing there's more to come from this cute little guy. I love him <3

Gotta kagura :3 awwww and Kagura ending :3

Funny episode. Seeing Jura lose his composure over those tablets was hilarious! That little Kemokemo thing is annoying though.

It is also very pleasing to let the Erza/Kagura ship set sail once again xD. When i saw her come up I was honestly thinking it would be nice for her to get an Ed screen but I never thought the show liked her enough to actually do it! Man was I happy I was wrong. Kagura is adorable, best Ed screen yet.

All this hype I keep seeing about this Tartaros arc is giving it a mythical feel. It better be really fucking good.

And all the people over the last couple dozen episodes talking about filler as if whether it's canon has any impact whatsoever regarding quality... Fairy Tail canon is often just as shitty and stupid as the filler.

Kemokemo was cute though. :3

Me gusta mucho KemoKemo. Que gran capitulo, y me encanto como los echaban de todos los gremios, aunque la verdad Gray y Lyon les hicieron un favor al pelear y ser echados de Lamia Scale. Kagura ha cambiado tanto desde que la conocimos. De una chica fría con falta de expresión, a una chica dulce, y que linda se ve en el ending.
