Plot[edit]

The world of Earth-land is home to numerous guilds where wizards[3] apply their magic for paid job requests. Natsu Dragneel, a dragon slayer wizard from the Fairy Tail guild, explores the Kingdom of Fiore in search of his missing adoptive father, the dragon Igneel. During his journey, he befriends a young celestial wizard named Lucy Heartfilia and invites her to join Fairy Tail. Lucy forms a team with Natsu and his cat-like Exceed partner, Happy, which is joined by other guild members: Gray Fullbuster, an ice wizard; Erza Scarlet, a magical knight; and Wendy Marvell and Carla, another dragon slayer and Exceed duo. The team embark on numerous missions together, which include subduing criminals, illegal dark guilds, and ancient Etherious demons created by the immortal dark wizard Zeref.

After several adventures, Natsu and his companions encounter Zeref living in isolation on the guild's sacred ground of Sirius Island.[7] A battle over Zeref ensues between Fairy Tail and the dark guild Grimoire Heart, which attracts the attention of the evil black dragon Acnologia. The Fairy Tail wizards survive Acnologia's assault when the spirit of their guild's founder and Zeref's estranged lover, Mavis Vermillion, casts the defensive Fairy Sphere spell that places them into seven years of suspended animation. After later participating in the Grand Magic Games tournament, Fairy Tail wages war against Tartaros, a dark guild of Etherious that aim to unseal a book believed to contain E.N.D., Zeref's ultimate demon. Acnologia returns to annihilate both guilds, prompting Igneel – revealed to have sealed himself within Natsu – to emerge and battle Acnologia. However, Acnologia kills Igneel in front of a helpless Natsu, who departs on a training journey to avenge Igneel.

One year later, Natsu returns to discover that Fairy Tail's master, Makarov Dreyar, has been futilely trying to postpone an invasion by the Alvarez Empire, which Zeref governs. Zeref and his forces assault Fiore, intending to acquire Mavis' body preserved beneath Fairy Tail's guildhall, which houses a wellspring of infinite magic power called Fairy Heart. While battling Zeref, Natsu is informed of his own identity as both Zeref's younger brother and the true incarnation of E.N.D., whom Zeref resurrected as a demon with the intention of being killed by him. When Natsu fails to do so, Zeref absorbs Fairy Heart from Mavis in a bid to rewrite the present timeline with one where he might prevent the atrocities he and Acnologia have caused. Natsu incapacitates Zeref to stop the drastic changes to history this would create, while Lucy edits the book of E.N.D. to make Natsu human. Mavis then lifts her and Zeref's shared curse of immortality by reciprocating his love, which kills them both.

Meanwhile, Fairy Tail and their allies detain Acnologia within a space-time rift created by the use of Eclipse, Zeref's time travel gate. However, Acnologia escapes while his disembodied spirit traps all of the present dragon slayers within the rift to maintain his godlike power. Lucy and the other wizards across the continent immobilize Acnologia's body within Fairy Sphere, while Natsu accumulates the other dragon slayers' magic and destroys Acnologia's spirit, killing him and freeing the dragon slayers from captivity. The following year, Natsu and his team depart on a century-old guild mission,[8] continuing their adventures together.

Production[edit]

After finishing his previous work, Rave Master, Hiro Mashima found the story sentimental and sad at the same time, so he wanted the storyline of Fairy Tail to have a 'lot of fun [for everyone]'. His inspiration for the series was simply sitting in bars and partying with his friends, the community aspect.[9] Having always loved magicians and wizards, he imagined what it would be like if he and his friends were magicians.[10] But it was also about young people finding their calling, such as a job.[9] He stated that while he tries to consider both his own interests and the fans' on what will happen next in Fairy Tail, the fans' take precedence.[9]

Mashima described his weekly schedule for creating individual chapters of Fairy Tail in 2008. Script and storyboards are written on Monday, rough sketches the following day, and drawing and inking are done Wednesday through Friday. Time in the weekends was for Monster Hunter Orage, a monthly series Mashima was writing at the same time as Fairy Tail. He usually thinks up new chapters while working on the current ones. Mashima had six assistants in 2008 that worked in an 8,000 square feet (740 m2) area with seven desks, as well as a sofa and TV for video games.[10] In 2011, he stated that he worked six days a week, for 17 hours a day.[11]

For the characters of the series, Mashima drew upon people he has known in his life. In establishing the father-son relationship between Natsu and Igneel, Mashima cited his father's death when he was a child as an influence.[12] He based Natsu's motion sickness on one of his friends, who gets sick when taking taxis together. When naming the character, the author thought western fantasy names would be unfamiliar to Japanese audiences, so he went with the Japanese name for summer; Natsu.[10] Mashima based the humorous aspects of the series on his daily life and jokes his assistants would make.[12]

Reception[edit]

Manga[edit]

As of February 2017, the Fairy Tail manga had 60 million collected volumes in circulation.[6] According to Oricon, Fairy Tail was the eighth best-selling manga series in Japan for 2009,[93] fourth best in 2010 and 2011,[94][95] fifth best of 2012,[96] dropped to ninth in 2013,[97] to 17th in 2014,[98] and was 15th in 2015.[99] The fifth volume of Fairy Tail was ranked seventh in a list of the top ten manga, and the series once again placed seventh after the release of the sixth volume.[100]About.com's Deb Aoki listed Fairy Tail as the Best New Shōnen Manga of 2008.[101] It also won the 2009 Kodansha Manga Award for shōnen manga.[102] At the 2009 Industry Awards for the Society for the Promotion of Japanese Animation, the organizers of Anime Expo, Fairy Tail was named Best Comedy Manga.[103] Volume 9 of the series was nominated in the Youth Selection category at the 2010 Angoulême International Comics Festival.[104]

Reviewing the first volume, Carl Kimlinger of Anime News Network felt Fairy Tail followed standard shōnen action manga tropes, writing 'the mix of goofy humor, face-crushing action, and teary-eyed sap is so calculated as to be mechanical.'[105] Carlo Santos, also of Anime News Network, agreed in his review of volume three; having positive views towards the art, particularly the action scenes, but citing a lack of story and character development.[106] By volume 12 Santos suggested that Mashima's true talent lies in 'taking the most standard, predictable aspects of the genre and somehow still weaving it into a fun, fist-pumping adventure.'[107]

Kimlinger, his colleague Rebecca Silverman, and A.E. Sparrow of IGN all felt Mashima's artwork had strong similarities to Eiichiro Oda's in One Piece.[108] While Sparrow used the comparison as a compliment and said it had enough unique qualities of its own, Kimlinger went so far as to say it makes it difficult to appreciate Mashima's 'undeniable technical skill.'[105][109]

Anime[edit]

The anime has also received a positive response from critics and viewers alike. In Southeast Asia, Fairy Tail won Animax Asia's 'Anime of the Year' award in 2010.[110] In 2012, the anime series won the 'Meilleur Anime Japonais' (best Japanese anime) award and the best French dubbing award at the 19th Anime & Manga Grand Prix in Paris, France.[111]Ableton live 9 crack download.

In reviewing the first Funimation Entertainment DVD volumes, Carlo Santos of Anime News Network praised the visuals, characters, and English voice acting, as well as the supporting characters for its comedic approach. However, Santos criticized both the anime's background music and CGI animation.[112] In his review of the second volume, Santos also praised the development of 'a more substantial storyline,' but also criticized the inconsistent animation and original material not present in the manga.[113] In his review of the third volume, Santos praised the improvements of the story and animation, and said that the volume 'finally shows the [anime] series living up to its potential.'[114] In his reviews of the fourth and sixth volumes, however, Santos praised the storyline's formulaic pattern, though saying that 'unexpected wrinkles in the story [..] keep the action from getting too stale,' but calling the outcomes 'predictable'.[115][116][116]

Madô is the way of magic, and madôshi are those who follow the way of magic. So although the word 'wizard' is used in the original dialogue, a Japanese reader would be likely to think not of traditional Western wizards such as Merlin or Gandalf, but of martial artists.
