Key

Aquarius, "The Water Bearer" (アクエリアス Akueriasu) is a Celestial Spirit that is one of the 12 Golden Zodiac Keys. Her key is currently owned by Lucy Heartfilia.

Appearance

Aquarius is a Celestial Spirit with the appearance of a royal blue mermaid. She has a long blue fish-tail, large breasts, and dons a revealing bikini top. She has two gold armlets and wears a jewel circlet. She wields an urn which is the basis of her powers. She was designed to have her appearance correspond with her respective zodiac sign whereby "Aquarius" is depicted as a merman or mermaid carrying a vessel from which is pouring a stream of water, as reflected by the urn and Water Magic Aquarius employs in the Fairy Tail series.

Personality

File:Reaction.png

Aquarius' reaction to Scorpio

Aquarius is a very moody and ill-tempered woman who often threatens to kill her owner, Lucy. One of the most important distinctions between Aquarius and the other Celestial Spirits is that while the other spirits serve Lucy obediently, Aquarius is irritated by her. Whenever she is summoned, depending on her mood she will either attack the opponent, Lucy, or both. The risk of summoning her is great because Lucy has said several times she is her most powerful Celestial Spirit. Apesar disso, Aquarius se importa com o bem-estar de sua dona, Lucy. Ela é muito gentil e amorosa com seu namorado, Scorpio, para quem ela mostra um lado completamente dierente de ela mesma. Ela já ameaçou Lucy para ficar quieta sobre o humor dela na frente de Scorpio, a não ser que ela quisesse ser um "corpo afogado". Todas as vezes que Lucy está na rente, ela faz questão de esregar em sua cara que tem um namorado e ela não. Apesar de tudo isso, Aquarius já ajudou Lucy várias vezes durante as série e, com o decorrer do tempo, sua relação com ela vai melhorando.

History

Aquarius' previous master had been Lucy's mother, Layla Heartfilia. When Layla retired from her work as a Mage because of her health problems, she entrusted Aquarius' Key to another Mage with instructions to present it to Lucy if she chose to be a Celestial Spirit Mage.

Synopsis

Macao arc

Aquarius when she was first summoned

As Natsu Dragneel fights Bora, Lucy summons Aquarius to haul Bora's ship, full of kidnapped girls about to be sold into slavery, towards the harbor. Happy shows a friendly interest in her given that she was a fish, to which she doesn't respond to. After doing her job (and purposely washing Lucy ashore as well), she states her desire to not be bothered for a week as her boyfriend is taking her on a vacation. Before she leaves, she rubs it into Lucy's face that she has a boyfriend whereas her master does not.

Galuna Island arc

Aquarius being controlled by Sherry

Aquarius is called forth once more when Lucy battles Sherry, to deal with Sherry's Doll Play Magic. Sherry notes that Aquarius is a powerful Spirit and and gains control of Aquarius. Aquarius, however, attacks Sherry along with Lucy because she does not like being controlled. Before leaving, Aquarius berates Lucy's personality, claiming that it is the reason the latter hasn't and will never get a boyfriend like she has.

Phantom Lord arc

It is mentioned by Lucy that Aquarius gave her a very painful punishment (spanking) for losing her keys after she was kidnapped by the members of Element 4.

Loke arc

Aquarius is summoned briefly along with all of the rest of Lucy's spirits when they are confronted by the Celestial Spirit King.

Tower of Heaven arc

File:Lucy summon A inside Juvia's body.jpg

Lucy calls Aquarius inside Juvia's body.

Aquarius is summoned again when Juvia Lockser is controlled by Vidaldus Taka. Juvia liquefies herself and Lucy takes advantage of the situation to summon the Spirit through Juvia. Aquarius attacks everyone and Juvia and Lucy join hands to use Unison Raid. After defeating Vidaldus with this, Aquarius mouths off at Lucy, saying that the latter should not ever summon her in such a strange place once again, or Aquarius will kill her. She even comments if Lucy will summon her next from inside a toilet bowl. She leaves again, saying not to call her for two weeks and commenting, as per usual, that Lucy should get a boyfriend.

Oración Seis arc

File:Aquarius.jpg

Aquarius is summoned by Lucy to fight against Angel.

Aquarius with her boyfriend, Scorpio.

Lucy summons Aquarius as her strongest Celestial Spirit in her battle against Angel, especially since the battle is taking place at a river. Desperate to defeat Angel, Lucy tells Aquarius that the Spirit is free to do anything, including attacking Lucy as well, so long as Angel is defeated. Aquarius agrees, but is quickly removed from the battle when Angel summons Scorpio, who is revealed to be Aquarius' boyfriend--a fact that Angel was aware of, but Lucy was not. Aquarius threatens Lucy not to say a word about her usual ill-tempered behavior to her boyfriend, or Lucy shall suffer the consequences. The Celestial Spirits then go off on a date, with consent from Angel, much to Lucy's chagrin.

Edolas arc

Aquarius' shock when she can't control her water

After Hughes dumps both Natsu and Lucy into a pond after using Hell Coaster, Lucy summons Aquarius to fight Hughes. Aquarius tries to attack him, only to realize she is rendered unable to control the water, for it remains under Hughes' powers. He then sends her attack back at her and Aquarius screams for Lucy to take cover.

Tenrou Island arc

Aquarius and Cana's little fight

While fighting Freed Justine and Bickslow, Cana Alberona uses The Prayer's Fountain card, which gives Lucy an opportunity to summon Aquarius. She angrily wave-slashes everyone as usual. She doesn't pick on her usual victim, Lucy; instead, she chooses to bicker with Cana, saying all women are her enemies and that just being 'firm and bouncy' doesn't count as 'justice'. Aquarius also gives Cana zero points as a woman. Through this argument, Lucy takes note of how similar Cana and Aquarius are.

Aquarius is briefly summoned by Lucy via a puddle in the fight against Kanaloa. She uses her Water Magic to nullify Kanaloa's Ink. She then tells Lucy she will "Let her off the hook this time" but asks her to work on summoning two spirits at once so that she and Scorpio can be together, when summoned.

Lucy summons Aquarius to try and help defeat Jackpot, but he uses his Slot Magic to return her Bubble Shot which hits Natsu's Team. Aquarius, Elfman and Natsu begin to argue, causing Michelle to question why they don't work together at all.

Grand Magic Games arc

Aquarius surprises Lucy and her friends when Virgo brings them to the Celestial Spirit World for a welcome back party. During the party, Aquarius talks to Juvia, noting that Juvia was the one who once used Unison Raid with Lucy when they fought Vidaldus. Aquarius then asks her if she has a boyfriend, causing Juvia to blush and say no, causing Aquarius to comment that she would become like Lucy. During the entire party, Aquarius accompanies Juvia and holds hands with her during the group's departure, signaling the start of a good friendship.

Aquarius Summoned by Lucy

On the fourth day of the Grand Magic Games, Aquarius is summoned within a giant water sphere by Lucy during the Naval Battle event. However, Juvia Lockser uses a spell in the water that creates a whirlpool-like effect, surprising Aquarius as she notes that Juvia's abilities were on par with her own. Aquarius does not stay for the rest of the event, as she tells Lucy that she has a date and leaves.

Later on, after Uosuke defeats Pisces by using Terrain Effect: Whirlpool Zone, Lucy takes this chance to summon Aquarius. Aquarius uses her Water Pillar spell to send Uosuke spinning through a wall.
