Premise: Fairy Tail is based in a factitious world were 1/10th of people born have magic powers, these people naturally gather to others of like mind and as such a system of magic guilds have formed where magic users can find work on odd jobs/quests, while being presided over by a ruling council. Fairy Tail is one such guild comprising mostly of trouble makers and near-do-wells is known to have a..... colorful reputation. We follow the trials and adventures of several of the guild rats including Natsu the Dragon-slayer, Lucy the Steller Spirit mage, Grey the Ice-crafter and Ezra "Queen of the Fairies (Titania)".
Thoughts: This story is reminiscent of "One Peace" in its handling of itself, aka. doesn't take itself to seriously, extremely funny, great characters, same art style, and all in all a great work of fantasie.
Prose: Well defined world with inspired magic powers, great characters, HILARIOUS, and a plot that develops slowly but steadily without dominating the entire series.
Cons: Doesn't take itself to seriously, so don't expect gritty plot developments or realistic physics etc..... If you are looking for hardcore gritty storytelling keep looking.
-Notes: Anime is subbed only, and I personally haven't even bothered to watch it. This is the kind of story that lends itself well to the manga format and I have never bothered to re-watch what I have already read.
8.5/10 ("Fairy Tail mages specializes in property destruction" -Natsu)
