Wtf jc staff? Fuck.

@CocoaGalaxy that's totally understandable! And I agree that too many episodes kind of sound like a commitment, especially if you don't like dropping anime. If you ever want to give an opportunity to Fairy Tail just take your time and enjoy the episodes.

@Destinesia 3 eps a day is 21 eps a week, every week.
And thats not counting all the other anime.

21+ eps a week might be doable for other people but not for me alas.

I'm still wondering how things will go.

It's not that I'm not interested in fairy tail, of all things(?), its just that I'm more interested in other anime at the moment. And too many eps actually ends up as an issue here.

@CocoaGalaxy It's not impossible, in fact I'm doing it right now, although this will be my 3rd time re-watching Fairy Tail. If you watch 3 episodes per day, by the time 100 years quest airs, you will be able to be up to date just fine.

Can't wait for this.

J.C Staff again and Tokyo Ghoul:re director? I'll be surprised if this gets proper adaptation

i mean his work in edens zero was alright, so this should be just fine

Finally a good Shounen anime will release after years and make forget the bad taste that Edens Zero left to me . So damn hyped . Can't wait for the peak to return!!

For nostalgia's sake, this should be a good addition. Bleach, Fairy Tail, Naruto Shin Series (4-episode remake) and One Piece airing at the same time a very real possibility...

I've been vaguely interested but. Since this is a sequel I highly doubt I can just watch it without watching the original. At the same time watching the entirety before it airs sounds kinda impossible too.

It's in july soo eh. No news on how many episodes it will have though. Are they really going to try and do the entire thing, or are they just gonna do 12 or 24 eps and stop there.

I suppose I could give it a try in one episode and then see how it goes, but I'd imagine people would think I'm crazy

Uhm who's that girl on the yellow background? No way it's lucy right?

Not much meat to the trailer, but looking forward to see it. Feels like its been ages since it was announced.

I'm probably coping, but I hope this will get similar treatment to Bleach TYBW anime so I could finally enjoy real animation instead of previous Fairy Tail's powerpoint slideshows.
