| NEVER ever say Fairy Trash is trying to rip off of One Piece lol, because FT will never even remotely resemble one piece in any way not in a 100 years to the greatness of one piece(manga) lol. |
| Name one thing from One Piece that is original and not a rip off. |
| Yes it is /thread |

| I saw both works and frankly I think people exaggerate in saying that FT is a copy of One Piece. From what I understand Mashima is a fan of OP and with Gildarts he wanted to honor Shanks and Oda. OP is also not so original (the characters Rufy and Brook, in addition to the design of all the characters are an example), unfortunately find original things these days is difficult but not impossible if you look carefully. I think OP is better than the FT but I think it depends on the tastes of a person. |

| One Piece is nt original in the first place. Both were simply inspired by Togashi and Toriyama. |
| End Zionazism |
| pretty much |
 |
| Yes it is. A poor excuse I may add. I never felt any authenticity to it, when I used to watch it. I always felt Fairy Tail was trying way too hard in every situation they had. |
Yamato-Takeru said: Not even close. Fairy Tail's art is way better and more pleasing to look at.The Art is the same Yamato-Takeru said: Define special type animals? I'm not sure what's that even supposed to mean.the special type animals are the same Yamato-Takeru said: You'll want to buy a pair of glasses if you think they look anything alike.natsu is luffy(they look amazingly alike ) Yamato-Takeru said: The two series simply share a common theme. It happens with dozens of shows, and they aren't considered rip-offs.they both take care of their nakama (fellow mates) or friends Yamato-Takeru said: If those were all the reasons you could provide for such a claim, then, no.Is Fairy Tail Is A Rip Off Of One piece: |
mawhulk said: 1. Reckless Fearless Meathead (common to shounen, but their level of airheadednes is next to no one.. even naruto or goku is a step smarter than them atleast) 2. Big appetite(the excuse of the writers being both DBZ fans is just a forced defense) 3. Being overly passionate about his friends and how they treat them as family( its just waaaay similar) 4. Have been training since he was a kid to be the strongest ever(also common on shounen, but cmon..even naruto and ichigos. childhood is different) 5. Ridiculous funny weakness(cant swim/motion sickness) 6. Has a mysterious power that is supposed to be RARE. (devilfruit/dragonslayer). 7. Has a mentor who they looked up to and owed dearly.. both happen to have lost a limb and the fact that they have the same LOOKS.. same PERSONALITY and same at being an OVERALL OVERPOWERED BADDASS. 8. Has the same goal of looking for something that may or may not be there(onepiece/igneel) 9. Both wearing a garment that was given to them and they hold and protect dearly(strawhat/natsu's scarf) this is just the tip of the iceberg of how FT is a rip off of OP obviously but just to be clear i WAS A FAN of FT before i have come to this conclusion then i dropped it all the way back when OP did a timeskip and FT did one too.. and i just want to say that if you are a HUGE fan of FT who disagree with me, then you might wanna watch OP before you say anything 1. Reckless and fearless MC is a common shounen trope. Not unique to One Piece in any way. 2. MC with big appetite is a common shounen trope. Not unique to One Piece in any way. 3. MC caring for his friends/family is a common shounen trope. Not unique to One Piece in any way. 4. Training to become the strongest is a common shounen trope. Not unique to One Piece in any way. But back to the point, how often do you even see Natsu training? He's already considered very strong in his universe at the start of the series. The only times he seriously trained was before the S-class trials (only 1 week) and before the tournament arc (which actually got cut short and they took another alternative). 5. And Saiyans lose their power when grabbed by their tails. Unique weakness is not unique to One Piece. 6. Yet obtained in completely different ways and with completely different qualities. The only similarity there is the fact both MCs have a rare special power of some sorts. That's not unique to either series. 7. I'll give you that one. 8. Having a goal to work toward to is a common shounen trope. Not unique to One Piece in any way. Also, for Luffy it's the sole reason to go on a grand adventure, while Natsu isn't even actively looking for Igneel. 9. I'm feeling generous, so I'll consider giving you this one. Let's look at the results: -Four common shounen tropes. -Three actual differences. -And two similarities I'd be willing to agree on. If having one side character that looks similar to a side character in One Piece and both MCs having a (different) piece of clothing dear to them means one series is a rip-off of the other when both shows reach into the 100s of episodes, then I'll LOL at you. And yes, I've watched 100 or so episodes of One Piece before finally dropping it as it went nowhere, and I still fail to see a quantity of similarities between the two that could justify calling Fairy Tail a clone of One Piece. |
mawhulk said: mashima obviously created natsu based on oda's luffy and no other character and not just some stupid cliche can prove it. Luffy is a rip off of Goku. So technically Natsu is inspired from Goku. |

| Some of those characters may be similiar by concidence, but that Kuma rip-off is just indefebsible. |
 |
mawhulk said: Or you see similarities when there are none/are insignificant when looking at the bigger picture.You argue with just saying "NO. its not the same because its been done before" for each similarity when im clearly saying that one or two of the things i have pointed out CAN be found everywhere but not ALL of those can be found in ONE story alone except FT's Natsu, its either you dont get it or just shamefully DENYING IT. mawhulk said: Reckless and fearless MC:And why do everyone go with the excuse of "THIS IS SO COMMON ON SHOUNEN" ? personally i dont know, because if it is really THAT common from the HUNDREDS of the shounen or EVEN JUST THE POPULAR ONES out there, there should be AT LEAST 3 or more who has a main character with similar qualities to luffy/natsu and i bet you to name at least 3("maybe even one if im generous enough")who has these much similarities -Goku, Vegeta -Naruto -Ichigo -Touma -Edward -Kamina -Kirito -Vash -Kotetsu -Whatever the name is of Kill la Kill's MC MC with big appetite: -Goku, Vegeta -Naruto -Index -Edward -Kamina MC caring about his friends/family: -Goku, Vegeta -Naruto -Ichigo -Gon -Touma -Mikoto -Edward -Kamina -Kirito -JoJo -Ash Training to become the strongest: -Goku, Vegeta -Naruto -Ichigo -Gon -Ippo -JoJo -Ash -Saitama -The kid from Attack on Titan mawhulk said: I watched One Piece before I did Fairy Tail, and while it started out strong, it quickly lost its appeal to me when it seemed like it wasn't going anywhere. On the other hand, Fairy Tail's characters are much more fun and the show has a far stronger pacing + the superior OST. But going by your response, if I've seen both it must absolutely be impossible for me to like Fairy Tail over One Piece, just because YOU think One Piece is better. Are you eight years old by any chance?You are clearly bias by the fact that your are just a FT fan, because not only is 100 episode on OP is unacceptable, im clearly doubting that you even did see those 100. because i actually WAS A HUGE FT FAN myself, until i felt like i have seen all the things FT is doing on OP. mawhulk said: I did. Read above. And that list is coming from someone who hasn't even seen that much anime compared to some other people on here. But I've seen enough to recognise the tropes when they're there.before you claim anything to be SO COMMON, please do tell the characters that you can think of right away that has these qualities, you should be able to name LOTS and not just 4 or more since its so common on MAIN CHARACTERS mawhulk said: Again, having watched both, at least up to around episode 100, I fail to see similarities so strong that Natsu is a rip-off of Luffy. Despite having a number of things in common, they're still very different characters. I don't see how you can't see that, but okay. If you prefer to continue to believe Natsu/Fairy Tail is a rip-off, then I don't have a problem with that.EDIT: once again this is just LUFFY-NATSU the main character.. not even talking about other character similarities ,EVENTS and groups and other THINGS in the OP world. |
| Lol, Dahaka_ said: lol, I don't beliv it's just matter coincidence, neither mashima tributed or simply rip off the chara's there, hell yeah it were appalingSome of those characters may be similiar by concidence, but that Kuma rip-off is just indefebsible. |
 la critique de l'intention pure |
mawhulk said: Just because a character fits a certain trope, doesn't mean they're exact copies of each other or approach the same trope in the exact same ways. Well, even with the ones you refuse to accept, I still listed more than 3 valid examples, so I don't see the problem. The same goes for the other lists you picked apart.Its like you just remember them doing something aggressively and went with it. lol. mawhulk said: 1. No, you asked me to list characters that fit those common tropes, and so, that's exactly what I did. Just because they don't act according the same trope in the exact way Natsu/Luffy do, doesn't mean they aren't valid examples of said tropes. Also, how did I not list mostly main characters? Pretty much all those which I listed are either the primary or secondary main characters of their shows, lol.1. You pointed out Specific Charactestics that is a little bit similar but OBVIOUSLY can not be considered a rip off of luffy. just ask anyone if luffy is the same as freaking edwards elric,Gon,Vash,Ryuko(?),Index(LOL),kirito(.,l,.) most of them is not even main character. but yes we all know goku is what oda based his character from, but there is so much more differences between them unlike Natsu who is clearly based of on luffy on NEARLY EVERYTHING! and the fact that mashima isnt even saying it is bs. 2. You are really just FORCING everything that you know about OP to be a TORPE, but how the hell can you say that OP is not really unique in itself but most of the anime's that you referenced off to came out after OP. 2. Wait, where did I ever say One Piece is not really unique in itself? I never even said that in any of my posts. Although, it's true that it's nothing unique. It's just about a kid embarking on a grand adventure in search for the greatest treasure, and making friends along the way. However, a lack of originality is not even a bad thing. If the only thing that would make a show great was originality, then you might as well quit watching anime altogether. mawhulk said: You see similarities where I see differences:Luffy ate devilfruit which gave him RARE power but gave a ridiculous side effect of not being able to swim. Natsu learned of Dragonslaying a RARE magic but eversince then, it gave him motion sickness for some reason. Luffy got the devilfruit from Shanks. Natsu Learned Dragonslaying from Igneel. Shanks left luffy. Igneel Left Natsu. Shanks gave him his Hat. Igneel gave him a scarf. Eversince then Luffy Trained his Hardest to be the Pirate King and MEET SHANKS AGAIN. Eversince then Natsu Trained his Hardest to be the STRONGEST MAGE and MEET IGNEEL AGAIN. -Natsu was taught rare magic. -Luffy ate rare fruit to obtain his powers. (Not to mention that both their powers are completely different from each other.) -Natsu received his powers from a dragon. -Luffy received his powers from something given to him by a human. -Igneel actually never left Natsu, but sealed himself inside of Natsu to prevent Natsu from turning into a dragon by his own magic. -I have no idea why Shanks left Luffy, but I can't imagine it being the reason as Igneel's, so there you go. -Natsu's scarf would serve as a memory of Igneel who knew he couldn't stay by Natsu's side forever. -Shank's hat was actually part of his attire before giving it to Luffy. I'm not going to pretend I know the full details on their backstory, but the situation is different here. -Natsu's goal has actually never been to become the strongest. Despite wanting to beat up every stronger member in his guild, he never actively trains to try to achieve that. Furthermore, he's never been shown to want to become the strongest outside his own guild. Natsu also hasn't been shown to actively search for Igneel after joining Fairy Tail. mawhulk said: I'm not going to speak for One Piece, as I'm not familiar with that part of its story, but let me ask you this:[Now how often do you even see Luffy training? He's already considered very strong in his universe at the start of the series. The only times he seriously trained was after being destroyed at Saboady(an island that is a tree) so they made a timeskip and returned to the world stronger than before What Happened To Natsu in Fairy Tail? The only times he seriously trained was after being destroyed at Tenrou Island(an island that is a tree) so theymade a timeskip and returned to the world stronger than before -Was the tree island of similar importance to the Strawhat Crew as it was to Fairy Tail as a guild? -Did the Strawhat Crew get blasted into oblivion by the most powerful foe in their universe and then reappear at some point in the future to make their timeskip? Even if Fairy Tail is inspired by One Piece, its execution of many elements still makes it a far different show. Hence, why I much prefer Fairy Tail over One Piece - because though they share similarities and common themes, Fairy Tail executes them much better. And with that, I'm done here. |

Because it did first. Defeated by Sasuke > time skip > Got stronger and went outside of the village. All your arguments are filled with holes. Primarly Luffy and Natsu. How can Natsu be a rip off of a character that has little to no originality on it's own. Luffy is an obvious rip off of Goku. |

DBZ for sure, but Yu Yu Hakusho? I don't see it and HxH either. Bleach is the one that was inspired most by YYH I think. |

| Well anyhow, Fairy Tail is blatantly obvious on this, and plenty others too on Dragon-Ball inspiration taking, but every series has enough flaws by itself. I don't think being a ripoff is too big a problem. You wouldn't care, if the series was quality. :P |

There was a long discussion sometime ago where it was agreed that OP took inspirations from HxH as well. OP's first chapter coming out first doesn't mean he can't take things from already existing HxH chapters in a later installment, especially further down the line where Oda clearly runs out of ideas. |

| Fairy Tail is pretty bad so even if it is who cares? |
| One piece no matter how simillar to Fairy Tail ..... or fairy tail no matter how simillar to One piece can never be a rip off because fairy tail shows the aspects that one piece can never show.... fairy tail is generally better in every way, art story dialogues spirit feelers and even fillers so a rip off cant generally be better than the parent anime so this proves fairy tail is not a rip off especially of one piece. |
| Gildarts look somewhat similar to Shanks but there's no way I see Natsu being similar to Luffy. I don't think Erza is a rip-off though. She's the only character in Fairy Tail who I liked and haven't seen anywhere else. |
 |
| nope I dont think so... that fanservice sometimes is more prominent in Fairy tail... Did you see the New Fairy taill OVA..... released just recently....!!!! |
 |
| This thread is cancer... Watch them both and make an opinion by yourselves. - Goals on the MCs are way different. Luffy wants to become the "best" by finding a "special something", while Natsu wants to protect his guild at any cost and just maybe become the master of it. - Art is by no mean the same... not even similar. lol. Neither is character/world design. - Natsu is not even the most powerfull of his guild, lot of times he just beats his enemies because of the "Power of Friendship". - The mugiwaras are almost allways there with Luffy, while the Fairy Tail's roster for every arc changes every time. - Most important is: Do NOT mistake Tribute with Rip Off. Gildarts, Hoteye from Oracion Seis are no-brainer tributes. Think about this, do they really need that appearance to be what they are?. Rip offs/Plagiarism can only be applied in case of PLOT. If anything, Fairy Tail is a lot more similar to Naruto yet they are not the same. |

At least the similarity did stop at the character designs. (one year since the last post, I doubt this thread will ever truly die) |

| While i dislike fairy tail, and how it ripped off some character designs from one piece, the things you mention are so general and common place that it cant be called stealing. So no, not at the core, then its not a rip off. |
