Fairy Tail, Nanatsu no Taizai - Anime Recommendations

The similarity between the two includes each character has their own unique personality and ability that makes them strong. They also value their bond, and also Fairy Tail recruits members into their guild through adventures/quests they accept, so it's essentially the same as Meliodas looking for his friends from the Seven Deadly Sins.

After watching the first episode of Nanatsu no Taizai I got immediately reminded of Fairy Tail. Both of them start with a nice introduction and are followed by events which show us how the main characters get to know each other. After introducing us to the main characters without telling us who exactly they are, or part of which organization/guild they are, we are thrown into an action packed fight with great music. After the battle was settled their adventurous journey began.

Main guy helps main girl and both somehow have similar interests, what made them go together in their journey/adventure. + cute talking animals (cats in Fairy Tail and a pig in Nanatsu no Taizai)

In the past, after hearing about Fairy Tail, checking out the wiki and watching a few chapter reviews for a while I eventually decided to check it out. I'm not a big fan of Fairy Tail, but I acknowledge that this anime has a fan base. I would definitely recommend Nanatsu no Taizai(Seven Deadly Sins) to any Fairy Tail fan or to anyone who was disappointed by Fairy Tail. The transition to Fairy Tail to Nanatsu no Taizai is easy. They both involve magic and it's easy to correlate Fairy Tail's and Nanatsu no Taizai's magic to each other. Both Fairy Tail and Nanatsu no read more

Both have crazy action, fun comedy, a tad of ecchi, and overall a fun, fantasy adventure. The mangas for both even had a crossover chapter.

Set in a magical fantasy world. Group of people with awesome powers and are friends. All the good stuff.

The characters in both are very similar, the main characters in Nanastu could be easily be aligned with those in Fairy Tail-- Meliodas and Natsu, Elizabeth and Lucy, and Hawk and Happy. Both pretty much have the same concept of the characters meeting each other and then set off on a journey (although Nanastu has more of an actual goal whereas Fairy Tail doesnt not have the characters set off to achieve one specific goal throughout the series). Both have epic fighting scenes that will get you excited and pumped up.

Nanatsu no taizai has the same feel and similar setting to fairy tail but has far better fights and pacing. If you like nonstop action then taizai is for you definitely a worth watch series

Both have fanservice, both have 2 pets that talk, use magic as power on the series. And also both are from the Shonen Magazine.

I feel like 7 Deadly Sins is here to stay! It's an anime that has a great story from the get-go and leaves a mystery that you want desperatly answered. Your first opinion on the characters will be most likely false and that adds a great component of surprise and excitement. There are many plot twists in just 24 episodes and the cut of the episodes is the one you need in order to press the button "Next Episode" (Not Dr. Dre's Song) easily. You will love most of the characters (both good and evil) and you will shread a tear in some episodes. The only reason I read more

Both have medieval ambientation, magic, ecchi and invincible protagonists.

report Recommended by jacobtsurugiBR09

Both of these are pretty standard action/adventure shounens with similar protagonists (Natsu/Meliodas) who each have an animal sidekick (Happy/Hawk). They also both take place in a medieval fantasy setting featuring magic, and have quality OSTs. Both have pretty similarly comedy and similar atmospheres, although Seven Deadly Sins definitely feels a little darker at points. Seven Deadly Sins has a lot more of a plot and is a much shorter show, whereas Fairy Tail is very long running, but very little happens in term of overall progression from arc to arc.

Welcome to the most powerful guilds of both worlds! While Fairy Tail is all about friendship amongst guild members, Nanatsu no Taizai is all about showing off how badass is this small guild who once conquered the world.

-Male protagonists with a dark past: There are a few similarities with Natsu and Meliodas, starting with which they are both demons and one of the most powerful demons, Natsu being E.N.D is known to be the strongest Etherious and Meliodas being a former member of the Ten Commandments. They are also extremely compassionate for their friends and have an extremely strong bond with the main female character of their respective series. They also both have a relationship with some of the biggest villains in their respective series. -The female protagonist has a historical relationship with the MC: In Fairy Tail Lucy's ancestor Anna sends Natsu and the other dragon slayers through the eclipse gate to the time when Lucy is around, While in 7ds Liz is a character that is the reincarnation of his previous lover. Both are also from very rich families Lucy from a business but Liz is from a monarchy and they both had ran from their homes, albeit for different reasons as Liz left to save the country and find the sins and met the MC who was one accidentally while Lucy left to become a wizard of Fairy Tail and met the MC who was one. -A similarity with a ship : The ships I am talking about is Zervis and Ban x Elaine. A similarity is that both Zeref and Ban are humans made immortal and have fallen in love with someone who has a relationship with how they became immortal, Mavis with having the same curse and Elaine used to be the protector of the Fountain of Youth. They also had something that prevented the ship from progressing further than a kiss in how both of Mavis and Elaine died. Mavis and Elaine are also characters whose body misleads how old they are as Mavis being affected by the curse meant she was stuck with the body of a 11 year old and Elaine being a fairy meant she looked like a human child as well. -Badasses who are rarely there: Escanor a guy who wrecks shit faster than God Serena dies but has a weakness in that he is only strong during the day and is at his strongest when the sun is at its strongest which means he can't help in fights at night time except on one occasion. Gildarts on the other hand is a person who is more likely to be crashing at some brothel than be helping out in a fight. Gildarts being a badass though comes more from hype than Escanor as Escanor has been seen to be extremely powerful. -A Manipulated Villain: Jellal Fernandes and Hendrickson were both characters who used to be good years prior to when the story began and had a relationship with a important female character in the past, Jellal being a kind friend to Erza and Hendrickson being a Holy Knight who knew Elizabeth as a child. They were also villains early on the respective stories who were manipulated to try and bring something back Jellal trying to resurrect Zeref and Hendrickson attempting to bring demons back into the world. They are also both trying to redeem themselves for the actions that they accomplished under the manipulation. -Demonic Villains: Both the Ten Commandments and Tartarus are demons which each have a unique ability, Tartarus having curses while the Ten Commandments having the commandments. Both groups of demons are also devoted to a single figure who is extremely powerful, this figure is also a monarch, Zeref and the Demon King respectively. Both the ten commandments and Tartarus show us the connections and ties the protagonist has with them. In the case of Natsu we learn he is E.N.D. and the younger brother of Natsu in the case of Meliodas we learn he was once a member of the 10 commandments and the son of the Demon King. -Erza and Diane: Both characters are important female characters who have a strong bond with the protagonist if different in that Diane's love for Meliodas was more romantic while Erza's love for Natsu was a love for a sibling. Both characters also have fallen in love with a character that they met as a child and for various circumstances not in the males control for Jellal being manipulated and for King making him take the punishment for a crime, there was a long period before they see each other again. -Wars old and new: Both series mention a war far into the past that helped shape the world it is now, for Fairy Tail this is the Dragon Civil war that removed the dragon population from the world allowing humanity to prosper, while in the case of 7 deadly sins it was the war between the races which resulted in demons being sealed away helping humanity to prosper. In Fairy Tail there is a new war being fought between family who lived through the 1st war in Natsu against Zeref, in the case of 7 deadly sins you can consider the war between the 7 deadly sins and the remaining holy knights against the 10 commandments. read more

Both series involve alot of fantasy and great battle scenes. Both have funny humor and these shows have alot of great characters. Great animations as well and a bunch of fun.

Both take place in a fantasy setting with a diverse and engaging cast of characters.

report Recommended by Cacchione

Both shows are ecchi battle shounen with a lot of over the top fights and a large cast of characters.

report Recommended by xShinigami3125

Both of them are really similar. A fantasy world filled with magic is what characterizes both of these shows. If you're liked the quick-action lasting in on very short arcs (With some fan-service here and there) of one of them, then you will enjoy the other one.

report Recommended by Pentagonion

- both shows have magic as their power system - both shows are taking place in universe that looks like medieval Europe

Nanatsu no Taizai is what would happen if Fairy Tail and Akame ga Kill! had a baby. Nanatsu no Taizai and Fairy Tail both have magic, very funny moments, similar characters, funny mascot characters (a cat in Fairy Tail and a pig in Nanatsu no Taizai), and action! Both are animated by A-1 Pictures as well. Nanatsu no Taizai is a bit darker though. Regardless, I think fans of one would like the other.

they both have a very similar start.

report Recommended by chrolloseyejar

First of all both of them are purely SHONEN, Protagonists & MCs with their dark past, Badass Antagonists who are really there, Manipulated & Demonic Villain, Wars old and new...

report Recommended by Yuki_004

Both have some very similar things about them for example their adventure elements, they are both very adventurous and fun. Their protagonists are also happy-go-lucky and funny (IMO). Also they both like last minute power ups or smth like that.

report Recommended by 0megaH

Why is no one talking about the spirit of the anime ? Both are in a celtic and european fantasy universe, with dragons, demons, taking place in places inspired by France, Britain, and Ireland, Germany, it's very medieval and represent well the culture of the time, with inns, guilds, forests, fairies, demons, dragons, etc

I have watched Seven deadly sin and when I watched fairy tail I realized it is little similar to Seven deadly sin and both was good I think both are similar
