User blog comment:Ultraprime2/My 10 Most Disappointing Characters in Fairy Tail/@comment-5580383-20131129171047


 * 1) 10 I think you're being too quick to judge Zeref and if anything i actually like how Zeref is a more human and more relatable kind of villain. If anything out of all the villains in this series, he's actually the most interesting so far. He's cleary a tragic villain whose scarred by the horrors of humanity and wants to destroy the  "evil " in humanity, which makes him a well intentioned extremist


 * 1) 9 The Garou Knights aren't really that disappointing either. For the most part, they were strong enough for Natsu and his gang to take them as a threat, the only thing that prevented them from actually being a serious threat is the fact Natsu and his gang were just that overpowered. Keep in mind Natsu did defeat two Dragon Slayers in Dragon Force who are on par with his PTS power IN BASE and the leader was able to keep up with TS base Natsu so her was hardly fodder, at most if this was PTS Natsu prior to Dragon Force and Laxus power up, he would've got curbstomped by the leader of the Garou Knights. The only thing i agree with you on is the fact that Mashima should've did a better job characterizing these characters.


 * 1) 8 Yeah Orga was undeniably a major letdown, especially when yo compare him to fellow God Slayers Cheila and Zancrow. Zancrow came off as this real imposing badass and a obvious matchup for Laxus and could've been the Zancrow to Laxus, especially when he scored 10 times higher than Millianna who should be at least Max's level of power Post Timeskip. It's actually sad when not only Natsu's fight with a God Slayer was better done but even Wendy's  fight with a God Slayer was better done, Wendy really did impress me within that fight BTW.

7# I neither agree nor disagree with Yukino being on the list. Personally i too think she should've been stronger than what she was shown but to be fair, Kagura is around the level of Erza whereas Yukino at best is Lucy level so it's understandable even her strongest sprit gets one shotted by a S class mage when she's cleary A rank at best. My real disappointment with her actually is more related to the who Dragon Festival Fiscaso rather than the fight with Kagura, Mashima could've done much more with Lucy and Yukino than just close the gate.


 * 1) 6 I have to agree with you here, Juvia had alot of promise within the earlier days of Fairy Tail,especially  with regards to her battling and defeating  Meredy, one of the Seven Kin of Purgatory which gave her alot of potential for her powers. As for hating Happy, i don't see how you can hate him but to be fair, i'm not a big fan of him either and while Juvila's fangrilsh can get annoying, i can't say that it's not funny sometimes but one thing we can all argee on is that we'll all disappointed Juvia didn't go apeshit and start tearing ass after Gray  " Died"


 * 1) 5 Ivan Dreyar.. Ivan was a disappointment no doubt about ! Not much more to say about it! You took the words out of my mouth!


 * 1) 4 I disagree 100% . Kagura was actually a pretty cool character and still remains enjoyable despite some setbacks. Also the sword slash cut at least a miles worth of city blocks just by being unsheated and likely cut much more had not for Erza stopping it, so a potential full power slash could've destroyed an entire city and hence kinda lived up to the whole cataclysm  hype . Also Erza was still grazed by the shockwave of the slash despite blocking it. Also  i'm in agreement with Fairy Raven, despite being slashed by Erza's Bensakura, she took no serious damage and sort of no selled it. I also disagree with the opinion on the flashback, it was a decent addition of backstory for Kagura and some character development for Erza. The failure of Kagura not living up to the hype is more of Mashima being lazy at this point of the arc rather than Kagura as a character.


 * 1) 3 To Bacchus defense, Elfman beating him made sense considering he used a form with a bunch of spikes on them which was a great choice against a purely hand to hand fighter. Also keep in mind that Bacchus was effortlessly dominating Elfman most of the battle and also consider the fact Elfman has vastly improved his fighting abilities, after all he shouldn't be much weaker than Natsu and Gray post timeskip/Second Origin. Also note Bacchus was caught offguard by Elfman and probably wasn't expecting Elfman to have a form like that whereas Bacchus is well aware of Erza's powers and abilities  so the fight with Elfman doesn't make him a disappointing character in my opinion however  his 2nd failure on the 4th day of the Grand Magic Games was a disappointment considering by powerscaling, he should be on par with Ichyia and losing to Sting  ?  Seriously, that is like losing to Renji. How do you job to the jobber of the Dragon Slayers ?


 * 1) 2 Yeah i think i said more than enough regarding how much Future Rouge disappointed me. He had such greater buildup, an interesting character and backstory and was an interesting villain and yet all of that was thrown away noe sooner he lost to Natsu. Also as much as i was disappointed by Future Rouge, didn't Natsu eat Altas Flames flames?  Wasn't that the  "Hellfire Mode"  that fans dubbed it to be? Natsu's power was actually far above  Lightning Flame Dragon Mode in "Hellfire Mode " thanks to Altas Flame, had not for that, Natsu would've lost

1# I personally think Future Rouge was a bigger disappointment than Sting but Sting was a failure as a character though i have to disagree about you being upset about Weisslogia dying to Sting. It was explained that Dragon was gravely ill and it was more of a mercy kill, it's not like Sting can actually kill a Dragon, hell he can't even beat Base Natsu let alone a Dragon. To be fair to Sting, he was only implied to be as powerful as PTS Natsu in Dragon Force which would be naturally weaker than Natsu's Post Second Origin power up but it still doesn't change the fact that Sting fails as a character. It's even further confirmed how bad this character was when he surrendered to Fairy Tail, do we really to explain what has been explained a million times before ?Okay  maybe Sting does belong in #1 because at least Future Rouge handed Natsu his own ass several times.

Jet & Droy: Is it really fair to even put fodder characters as actual mentions  ? Then again it does say something when even Max, the shopkeeper whose shown not to be much of a fighter nearly kicks Natsu's ass shortly after Tenrou Island and yet these guys literally lose to fodder even after the timeskip. Hell going by the Starry Sky Filler arc, even Laki and Bisca have shown significant improvements in the timeskip whereas Jet and Droy are just jokes.

Rogue Cheney: Well he's no Sting, that's for sure!

Jellal Fernandes : That and he has yet to win any battles. The better question is that how is someone as strong as Jellal, a guy on par with elite mages like Erza, Laxus and Jura have no wins under his belt and always getting the short end of the stick?

Ichiya : Ichyia is more of a unlikable nuisance than a disappointment. I never had much expectations for him but to be fair, Ichiya is established to being a holder mage and holder mages are some of the biggest Glass Canons to exist, case in point Lucy and Yukino. Erza stated that he has a variety of useful powers, never said anything about him being a physical match to her and while Bacchus losing easily is bullshit, him having great attack power but shit durability is realistic considering he's a holder mage.

Erza is a badass swordswoman and very hot, we can all agree to that. To Sakura's defense, Sakura does have her few good moments that makes her impactful to the plot such as the recent power upgrade and healing the whole alliance almost singlehandely or her battle with Sasori, which is sadly more than i can say about Orihime or Rukia. I actually disagree about most of her battles being bullshit asspulls, the only battles i can agree being bullshit was Azuma because she literally got Namaka power and the Kagura fight but that was mostly due to Mashima's laziness rather than Erza being OP.

Lucy isn't a disappointment, hell for a main female shonen heroine, she has an impressive win/loss record, actually helps out alot within the plot and has alot of confidence within her abilities and i personally would like this series more if she was the main focus more than Natsu. Lucy only lost  3 battles and  2 of those 3 battles were against opponents who naturally outclassed her ( Jackal, Minerva ) and Flare would've lost had not for Raven Tails interference

Gray is okay, i'm not that emotionally invested within his character compared to Erza but at the same time i don't find him boring and as for battles,he's actually a decently balanced character with decent to good fights.

Agreed 100% with Natsu

Don't see your problem with Happy to hate him, he's just meh.
