Fairy Tail - Why It's Not Perfect

Written by Shiggins


Requested by Aquaconda T, it's Fairy Tail's turn to take a hit or two. Yes, the reviewer of Fairy Tail is going to be mean and criticise the shonen series starring Natsu, Lucy, Gray and Erza. Over the past few years, Fairy Tail's popularity has exploded and gone beyond anybody's expectations. And while I do love it and consider it one of my favourite series to read right now, I am a great man and therefore, I can use my vision to see the flaws. So here they are, just for the taking!

Problem #1: The manga had a lot of trouble with it's art at the beginning.


Boobs, Glorious Boobs!

Fine! I'll talk about this bloody one first, since people never shut up about it! Honestly, the haters are more obsessed with Fairy Tail's cleavage display than the actual readers... Anyway, long story short, too much fanservice.

Well... At least they do remember to make guys flash their fanservice a lot too. Yay for equality.
Bath scenes are obviously the most frequent one, with quite a few notable scenes showing much more than a dignified amount of skin. Honestly, it's nearly shocking that we haven't seen any nipples or... other places. To be fair though, that's probably because of the magazine's rule, and Mashima definitely pushes the limit to get away with as much as he can.

...Yeah, basically.
These days, Mashima manages to combine his love for nudity with a bit of comedy, but some things are just too distracting. And sorry senpai, but those boobs are too big to not notice. Nudity can literally be forced in during a big battle, or more recently, a war! "Oh look, people might die... but Lucy, get in the bath!". It's eye-rolling, cringe-worthy and such a drag. Not that I'm against nudity or whatever, but make it factor into the plot. Or if you make it funny, reduce the amount of times it happens!

I can complain about the fanservice all I want, but this chapter is still one of my most read reviews, even to this day. So... Awkward.

"Nakama Power"

Friendship is the most important ever! That is what almost every series out there will tell you. You can overcome hardships and villains and love and basically whatever shit life throws at you, so long as you got a bro or a gal to give you strength. And while it's already an old concept that we just accept, Fairy Tail seems to take it to the next level.

...I dunno how to explain this either.
Let's just state the obvious here; The best fights are the clever ones. Seeing a character get put into a tight situation, then adapt and create a strategy using their own abilities is very satisfactory, while seeing a character win because "I got friends" is not. And while it is true that Fairy Tail doesn't always do this, especially during recent times, it still likes to rely on the cliché every now and again.

I blame Shikamaru for my utterly high standards for battles.
If a character wins a fight, it should be for a reason that works within the story. Like every Shonen, the occasional "Deus Ex Machina" does appear to make a fight end quicker, like when Jellal suddenly got golden flame powers, but it's not that problematic. No, the power of friendship is considerably more frequent, and it's a bore honestly. If it was friends coming in during a fight to provide support, like it sometimes is, that would be a different story.

"Because she's Erza..."

Oh like I haven't bitched enough about this one already. This is basically the "Nakama Power" complaint, but taken to a new level. The character of Erza is impossible, as she will always gain the win and I can't think of a fight she's truly lost. At least, not in recent years. And that's fine... up to a point.

...................................................Ugh.
Erza is a badass and I love her, but the limit has gone from "overpowered" to "she'd survive Goku smashing her through the planet because she's Erza". I want to like Erza more than I currently do, so I think a loss or two might be exactly what we need. Her Nakagami armour is one of the most random things she has come out with, which I took an immediate dislike to because it resembled the childhood tactic of "my shield blocks everything so I win ha-ha". And if you still think we didn't go too far...

The Pointless Entry 

Have you ever tried to convert someone to Fairy Tail before? Tell them that the series is a lot of fun and they would definitely enjoy it, if they gave it a chance? I have with a few people, and they all gave me the same answer. They got bored during Galuna Island or Lullaby and gave up. And I can relate, because I gave up during Galuna Island as well because honestly, the first few arcs are boring!

Except this moment. Galuna Island is meh, except this hilarious moment.
When writing a story, you never want to start off boring. Your most boring moments should be in the middle, since most people remember the beginning and ending the best, and that's what draws them in. When Fairy Tail begins, it really struggles to keep your attention. The only running story seems to be Seigrain/Jellal and Ultear, but the focus mostly went towards random plots that are... mediocre.

Wow... I suddenly realised how much I actually miss Mystogan.
For me, Fairy Tail's true potential begins during the Tenrou Island arc when Zeref is finally introduced and we meet Ultear's boss, Hades. While arcs like Phantom Lord and Oracion Seis are interesting enough, that's mostly due to the characters and their relationships, and not the plot itself. An arc like Edolas could easily be lifted out, and there would be virtually nothing you'd miss because all that happens is the explanation of Mystogan.

I'm not saying the series is bad or anything, it's just lacking in anything worth value until Phantom Lord, thanks to some truly impressive battles and interactions with Gajeel, Juvia and more. I've probably only rewatched the Galuna Island and Lullaby arcs once, and since those are the first few arcs of the series, that's not a good sign. Thank fuck for Zeref, E.N.D, and the surprising amount of shipping. Speaking of which...

Just Kiss Already!

I will never understand how manga writers can do this for so long. When a character says "I love you", it shouldn't take 400+ chapters for the protagonist to respond! Naruto is a massive offender of this, forgetting Hinata's confession until the end of the series, but Fairy Tail is probably the biggest pain when it comes to this.

Aww, what a tender, loving and heroic moment... Let us never talk about it again.
Let's be realistic here. You can say "but what about this panel when they smiled at each other? That clearly means an eternal love that can't be shown in any deliberate way", but we all know the truth. Gajeel and Levy like each other. Elfman and Evergreen like each other. Juvia likes Gray and Gray almost definitely likes Juvia. Natsu and Lucy... probably but we'll see where that goes. With these ships and far more out there, why can't we just confirm at least one?!

One of the most potentially funny arcs in Fairy Tail history... if we just made them make that thing!
If you want a series to end with the main hero kissing the girl, not a problem. I totally get it. However, wouldn't it be great to see a series confirm the relationship and create humorous or, heaven forbid, sweet scenes because of it? Like I said earlier, so many manga series ignore that possibility to create unnecessary tension, but Fairy Tail is the thorn in my side because there are so many! Mashima clearly loves romance and I would probably be a lot more able to stomach the fact that nobody says "hey, want to grab lunch together?" if we just had one couple be confirmed! Just one! It's so frustrating, especially since Mashima is such a tease!

Him...

I don't like Jellal.

Sigh... I'm going to get so much hate for this one.
Probably the most controversial opinion I can have about this series, I dislike the popular character Jellal Fernandes and if you've read my reviews in the past, you'll notice that quite quickly. While I do admit I can be a bit unfair to him, I do have reasons for it and I might as well explain them here, since I don't want to waste a review going on a rant about a character I know many people like.

He's overpowered. Probably seems a bit unjustified considering Natsu is too overpowered as well, but Jellal always rubbed me the wrong way with it. He has a golden flame to suddenly "Dragon Force" Natsu, and he has this super-duper attack that wiped out the entire badass group of Oracion Seis, and he is so like totally awesome, you guys! So what's the problem with him being overpowered? Probably because... He never uses it in a way I feel is right. I mean, let's think about it this way; Jellal was at the battle against the dragons after the Grand Magic Games. Why didn't he attack Future Rogue? Someone else can protect Erza, but you could have ended all this by jumping up there and clearly being the badass you claim to be!

THIS is the badass Jellal I want!
However, that's a minor and easily debatable point. No, the number one root of the problem I have with Jellal can be summed up by when I used to like him; The Tower of Heaven arc. Back then, Jellal was the biggest villain of them all, and he was such a bastard! And I loved it! He had slaves, he destroyed Erza's childhood, he caused so much grief and misery, he killed the lovely Simon, he did so much... and how did they fuck it up?

Man, she's going to be PISSED when she hears the excuse of why she's the "bad one" in this fight.
Well, when he came back from the dead, I got a bit excited. Jellal returning from the dead to cause havoc had promise, but then he had amnesia. Amnesia... Amnesia... Motherfucking amnesia! One of the worst and most overused plot devices in fictional history! Oh but it gets worse, because then he's a teary-eyed gentle boy who wouldn't harm a fly. And then it turns out he was never a villain in the first place! He was a good boy who got possessed, so when he restores his memory, he's still a good guy. Huge wasted opportunity to actually develop the villain into a hero and just retcon him, only made worse by his constant self-degradation. His constant talk of walking the path of darkness and he can't be with Erza because she walks the path of light makes no sense, because he didn't do anything wrong! If you had been the villain, I would have blamed you but you weren't! Ultear was! So your whining about something you didn't technically do! You don't even do things that would count as "darkness" so just... just shut up, Jellal! JESUS HAROLD CHRIST!

....but that's just my own opinion.


On a Last Note...

A lot of people were probably waiting for me to talk about the "nobody dies" complaint and I just want to say... I don't like that one. I like that Mashima enjoys writing his characters, and that he enjoys bringing them back as much as he can, always leaving room for a big fun return that could create either drama, action or comedy. I also would like to point out that some characters do die, including Simon, Zancrow, Igneel, all of Tartarus... There is a lot. Considering how many characters there are, I doubt a lot of people would be happy unless a massacre happened and that's just ridiculous to suggest for multiple reasons. And honestly, fuck the people who think like that. If you want something depressing that kills off every single character, go read a Greek tragedy. If you want it to be "realistic", then don't read manga.

How DARE this magic manga featuring dragons, superpowers, talking cats, counterpart dimensions and ghosts of mages that started entire Guilds not give us the realistic portrayal of death and war?! I am shocked and appalled! This series is clearly full of false advertising!
A death should only happen if the writer sees a reason. And so far, Mashima has the best reason to keep them alive; He enjoys writing them. If he does kill off a character, he'll have a reason for it. Just like Kishimoto, who almost always had legitimate reasons for murdering his characters. That's called being a good writer. If someone says "but they should die because then blah blah blah", a smart writer ignores that and goes with the path they feel is best and have planned out. It's why Sasuke didn't die. It's why Itachi did. There needs to be a reason, and it needs to be part of the plan. Not because "it's realistic" or "because I, as a fan, think it could possibly...".
