Fairy Tail - Isn't that good but is GREAT for enjoyment. It's a huge package except that it somehow falls short on these things. Not bad though.

Soul Eater - Slow paced, but interesting. Can get boring but if you get engaged into the storyline you'll love it.

D. Gray man - Em..... I'll watch it someday

Soul Eater is the best, but fairy tail is also upbeat.

Watch Soul Eater first, then D.Gray-man.
Fairy Tail is not worth the time..

I've only seen Soul Eater and all the characters were annoying or 1-dimensional. Example: there's one character who gets decent time who doesn't really do anything but talk about symmetry.

You did like FMA and Naruto so I'd recommend the best anime instead of those 3 - Hunter x Hunter 2011.

As stated, fairy tail is the most generic and least creative/ pretty easy to watch. Soul eater is a much better made and intricate story wise.

I have not seen D. Gray-Man, but it seems very good.

The shortest of these series is Soul Eater, so there is not too much time investment.

All three have their merits

Just know that if you do watch D. Gray Man, it starts to only get really good about halfway in. It sort-of has a gothic/dark feel to it. Its good if you give it the chance.

I liked Soul Eater's unique art,characters,and its story/backdrop but it felt very unfinished.

I'd have to go with FairyTail since it isn't very good of a show creativewise but since its a generic shounen you can have a blast watching it because its easy to follow, charming, and you already know what cliches will pop up(thats if you like cliches like me. Everything I just said could also be taken the other way and you could think this show is terrible as stated in the above posts. But you really liked Naruto so i'd say FairyTail is up your alley).

honestly fairy tail is a bit too mainstream for it's own good.

soul eater is one of the animes responsible for getting me into anime in general, so my attitude towards it is pretty obvious.

I have never seen D.Gray man so I can't give an opinion but I will watch it in the future.

I second this.

But to your question, I haven't seen D.Gray Man, so I can't comment on that. Fairy Tail is great if you don't want to think, and sometimes that can be nice. Fairy Tail is fantastic at one thing: having a huge set of fantastic characters that actually matter at least a little bit. That said, the show has its ups and downs for arcs.

Soul Eater is pretty interesting, and in my opinion is strongest towards the first half. It is interesting to watch, but somehow manages to not have all that much happen throughout the entire show.

Watch Hunter x Hunter

If what your looking for is fan service then fairy tail is the way to go, it's arcs are very interesting AT FIRST but goes on a downward spiral as it goes by. Soul eater is interesting tho its short compared to ft and the manga has a completely different ending than the anime, storywise its stabilitiy is more consistent than ft. Haven't tried d-gray man yet but I've read good reviews bout it.

Fairy Tail = Tits

Soul Eater = self-indulgent Emo feel

D. Gray-man = Exorcists boring the possessed to death with endless talking


I must admit, it's a hard choice.

I have to say that is pretty accurate, especially the Fairy Tail one, almost every girl has a chest except the young kids.

Fairytale bored me on the long run. Soul eater bored me at the very start. I'm re-watching D. Gray Man and if you skip the Fillers then it's quite enjoyable and funny.
I'm not rude... I just wasn't taught to politely pretend to be nice to people I can't stand.
