User blog comment:AtlasFlame206/What is your first impression since you watched Fairy Tail?/@comment-5268982-20130831135317

I started the anime of Fairy Tail first, and when I reached the beginning of the S-Class Trial Exam, I had kept up with the anime so I started the manga(which was definitely better). My first thought was that it was too similar to One Piece, but also more "child-like" in a way, due to the lack of blood and evident nakama speeches and "Friendship overpowers all" messages.
