Story. Fairy Tail is your somewhat average shounen that showcase magic and guilds. Countless magic guilds lie at the core of all magical activity, and serve as venues for like-minded mages to band together and take on job requests. Fairy tail is the main guild in this whole series. This is a decent battle shounen with numerous fight scenes, overcoming obstacles and conflicts. The arcs in this series is memorable and not memorable. The first four arcs for me was memorable while the rest is forgettable. The very end of this series was bittersweet for me to say the very least.


Art/Sound. The art in this anime is not too bad or too good. Just average at best. Art of cities, towns, and castles in this anime is nice to gaze upon and the character designs are somewhat distinguishable. The ops in this series sounds really nice depending on your taste. Favorite ops for me would be op 2, op 6, and op 8.

Character. Characters are somewhat one dimensional with some good exceptions like Gray's story or Erza's childhood. Natsu is your cocky protagonist that use the power of getting really angry after he gets beat up. It gets tedious to endure some of the fight scenes with natsu. Natsu is not a great protagonist for his stale personality.


Enjoyment. I did enjoy this series for what it is but it feels like a chore for me to know what goes on in each arc. There a few arcs that use time travel which I'm not a fan of and boy was it confusing to understand.


Overall. I wouldn't recommend this anime to those that are not a fan of battle shounen since this one can disappoint you in the later arcs and with the same boring formula of protagonist getting really strong after one or more knockbacks. I would recommend this anime to a beginner anime viewer that enjoys fights scenes and the story I suppose.
