Anime[]
Anyone know when the new anime is starting, by any chance?Baithin 21:57, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
October 12th, next Monday.--Cifer64 23:25, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
Thanks!Baithin 23:28, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
I'm so excited that it is starting tommorow! I can't wait to hear Gerard's voice, Daisuke Namikawa is awesome!--Cifer64 21:24, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
I can't wait either... I hope it gets subbed quickly!! Baithin 21:39, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
I hope it follows the manga, since a lot anime don't follow the manga to closely. I would like some fillers in there every once in a while so that it still has some differences though.--Cifer64 21:50, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
Hell yes, it did~! It captured the fun feel of the manga while staying true to the way things were. The added lines and spells were pretty awesome. The voice acting is great. So were the opening and the closing... Bora, surprisingly, seemed pretty powerful, too! O.o I also like the glyph thing that shows up when someone casts a spell. What did the rest of you think of the first episode? :D Baithin 19:04, October 12, 2009 (UTC)
I think the FT anime is turning out great! I particularly think the voice casting is pretty good too, though I didn't expect Loke's voice to sound so young. I thought how they made the Council meating room have a giant glyph thing in the middle was a little wierd (I kind me kind of nit picky sometimes). I can't wait to hear some of what the S-class mages and the Phantoms sound like. Do you think Mystogan will also be played by Daisuke Namikawa?--Cifer64 06:01, October 21, 2009 (UTC)
I'm really liking the anime, It's getting better every week. I can't wait to hear Erza, Gajeel, Juvia and Laxus' voices. I also think it will be cool watching Phantom Lord arc, since that is what made me really start liking the series. I can't wait tell it gets dubbed, but it probably won't be for a while. I noticed that Funimation picks up a lot of Weekly Shonen Magazine manga, but that doesn't mean they will pick it up though. I think Funimation would do a really good job with it if they pick it up.--Cifer64 02:54, October 28, 2009 (UTC)
With Episode 4, we got the first real look at added material when Natsu, Lucy, and Happy were on their way home. They run into Gray, and then some (Eisenwald?) guys, which is already leading us into the Lullaby arc with the mention of the titular item.. And we saw Erza's triumphant return! Yay! But before the mention of Lullaby, I seriously thought we might have been moving into a sort of filler arc (Rescue Happy?). I wouldn't mind some extra Fairy Tail anime material. They definitely will add some stuff, as shown in the opening credits when they're fighting random monsters.Baithin 15:44, November 2, 2009 (UTC)
I thought the fillers scenes were pretty good. I think the anime is going to be getting even better now that they are getting into some of the more arcs with more actions. I just hope it doesn't get to different or end prematurely, though I doubt it will since it is a really popular series.--Cifer64 23:51, November 2, 2009 (UTC)
Speaking of the filler villains they encountered, I lol'd when the fortune teller mage prophecized about Gray's problems with water and women. That was totally foreshadowing to Juvia and I love it!! Baithin 05:14, November 3, 2009 (UTC)
Nice, can't believe I didnt notice that. I have a feeling that the anime is going to be really good.--Cifer64 05:19, November 3, 2009 (UTC)
Discussion (Current Plot Developments)[]
This page is here for a reason, isn't it? So let's discuss recent plot revelations! Unless this isn't the place to do this? Anyone have anything to share? Who can beat Midnight? Will Gerard become a good guy? Any possible romantic pairings? What's with Brain's staff? Baithin 23:28, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
I think Erza will probably beat Midnight because besides the part where she is poisoned, she has mostly been on the sideline and I think it would be and awesome fight, don't know how though. I think Gerard could kind of be considered as a good guy now. I would like to see him join FT, but I don't think he will sadly. I can't really see Mashima creating any romances. And with Brain's staff, I think it might be one of Zeref's living magic creations.--Cifer64 00:34, October 10, 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for participating. I'm hoping that Erza defeats Midnight also, considering all the other main characters got rather good fights. Perhaps Gerard will get back up and be able to help her... I'm hoping he'll be a good guy now, but I'm guessing he'll split paths with her rather like Erza's other old friends did, in an attempt to atone for what he did. It'd be awesome if he joined FT, though... As for romances, I agree with you there, but it's always possible since he included them in Rave Master. If Gerard is a long-term character, he might end up getting together with Erza. Nice speculation for Brain's staff - that has rather chilling implications if it's true. Baithin 19:51, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
Thanks. I also think that Wendy might get there and heal Gerard so that he can maybe get his powers back and help Erza. I also think he and Erza will probably split paths or he might die saving Erza somehow, but the latter I kind of doubt because that already happened with Erza and Simon. If he does live though, I could kind of see him with Erza, but I also can't because it isn't really a romantic series and because of the things he did in the past, even though Erza did forgive him. I'm really kind of split with that. I also think that Brain might have created the staff maybe to expirement with what Zeref did, because the staff doesn't seem as powerful as Lullaby or Deliora, either seems likely to me.--Cifer64 20:13, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
I forgot about Wendy. Hopefully she'll do some healing, but now that you mention her, maybe she'll be more instrumental in stopping Nirvana, since the people of Cat Shelter are meant to do that. Also, do you think she actually met Mist Gun on the road, instead of Gerard? Speaking of Mist Gun, I'll introduce a new conversation topic right below this. As for Brain's staff, that could be possible too. He seems to know a wide array of magic, but it's kind of scary if that staff that Natsu was whacking around was the best he could do, compared to Lullaby or Deliora. Baithin 21:09, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
It was probably Mystogan.--Cifer64 21:24, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
New thought: Instead of Wendy being able to stop Nirvana, what if it was Charle? We've learned absolutely nothing about her yet, but we do know about her guild, which is descended from the race who built Nirvana. What if Charle, and by extension Happy, was the last member of that race? Are the two of them the only ones who can stop it? Considering the cat motif in the Cat Shelter guild, I think it's very possible. Baithin 19:28, October 13, 2009 (UTC)
That makes since to me. The guild is name Cat Shelter and both are Cats. But Brain said that if Nirvana will be stopped if Midnight is defeated. Maybe they have the power to destroy it so that it will never be able to be used again.--Cifer64 23:06, October 13, 2009 (UTC)
Hopefully. Then we'd be able to learn more about Happy and why he is a cat with wings that was born in an egg. x.X... It'd be kinda cool to see them working together on something like that, giving Happy a role besides limited flight and comic relief. Baithin 00:11, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, Happy is one of my favorite characters, so I hope that Mashima makes him more important somehow.--Cifer64 00:15, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
What do you think of Erza's fight with Midnight? I thought it was really cool, a little short though. Do you think B's Staff might do something to keep Nirvana going? Do you think B's Staff might be really powerful or do you think it is weak?--Cifer64 02:27, October 15, 2009 (UTC)
I thought that was very clever of Erza to do all of that so quickly... but I can't help but feel things are a little anticlimactic. Lucy and Gray had the best fights in this arc, I think. Personally, I don't think the staff is too strong since even Zeref's own Lullaby flute was defeated easily, and this thing was most likely created by Brain, who is MUCH weaker than Zeref. Perhaps they might even have to fight Nirvana itself - and that would (hopefully?) be when Charle and Happy find out only they can stop it. Baithin 02:32, October 15, 2009 (UTC)
Maybe the staff is a device that can control Nirvana and they will have to fight Nirvana and one will have to destroy the staff to stop it.--Cifer64 03:59, October 15, 2009 (UTC)
Honestly, I really hope the staff doesn't control Nirvana. First they thought it was Brain, then it was revealed to be Midnight. I don't think that'll change again. I think the most likely scenario will be that Nirvana will go out of control. Maybe. Who knows? Baithin 19:38, October 15, 2009 (UTC)
I don't either. I think he might make it go into a berserk or something somehow. We'll just have to wait till next week.--Cifer64 03:56, October 16, 2009 (UTC)
Hmm... I'm a little iffy about this Zero guy. First they tell us that Brain is the leader (who is usually the strongest guild member), then they tell us Midnight is strongest, and now they're subverting things further by showing a split personality of Brain's. Gah! However, I did like that the staff was rather powerless. He was kind of funny, and I was actually hoping he'd fear Zero so much that he'd help Fairy Tail take him down somehow. I was unusually upset when Zero crushed him. So, question is, with Natsu, Gray, and Lucy down so quickly, who will defeat Zero? I'm guessing Erza, Gerard, and Wendy will team up in an attempt to beat him. Baithin 18:46, October 20, 2009 (UTC)
I personally thought the Zero twist was kind of intresting. It's really bugging me though with how he is going to be defeated. It seems like the only one who MIGHT stand a chance is Jura, however, he is badly wounded and unconcious so he obviously can't. Maybe the guild masters will come in, though I highly doubt it. The next chapter will be titled From Pegasus to Faries, I don't know what it means, but maybe The Trimens will come back into action or something. I can't wait to find out.--Cifer64 18:57, October 20, 2009 (UTC)
I doubt both of my earlier theories. I think maybe Wendy, Gerard and maybe the two cats will come in and fight Zero (though Happy was defeated by Zero). I want to see Roubaul fight Zero (he was saying that the time may be coming to settle their crime). This arc has had so many twists, who knows what will happen.--Cifer64 05:10, October 22, 2009 (UTC)
I thought that was a pretty good chapter. I knew Pegasus would come in and do something! I hope that Zero gets crushed. I think it would be kind of cool if Nirvana is destroyed and Zero tries to kill the light team members, Gerard and himself in the resulting destruction of Nirvana, though of course I hope none of the light team or Gerard die.--Cifer64 03:02, October 28, 2009 (UTC)
Can't wait tell next week! Two chapters, one main and one bonus! I wonder what the bonus will be like?--Cifer64 19:40, October 28, 2009 (UTC)
Come on! Where the HELL is the new chapter? I'm dying to know about Gildarts!! Baithin 22:48, January 5, 2010 (UTC)
Mist Gun[]
Why do you guys think he looks so similar to Gerard? Here's my theory: He's simply another psychic projection, just like Sieglein, but Gerard doesn't know/remember that he made Mist Gun. As for why Mist Gun seems to be his own separate entity, and one that is good? Perhaps Gerard, when he was younger, was able to get momentarily free of Ultear's mind control to create him. Just a theory... or maybe they're twin brothers o.O... Baithin 21:09, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
I'm really not to sure on this one. I think maybe it could be a side effect of Ultears mind control where it is split into a good and bad side and she can only control one. It could also be that when he created Siegrain that he accidently created a good and a bad side. Mystogan also looks a little older that Gerard to me so maybe he is and older brother though I kind of doubt that.--Cifer64 21:24, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
Perhaps it's just an unintentional side effect of Gerard's Psychic Projection spell. If Mist Gun really was only just that, then that raises some unfortunate questions. Will he one day cease to exist? Maybe we'll get another plot that surrounds him... Possibly even him and Gildartz together. Baithin 21:38, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
Luxus[]
Will he be making any reappearances? Perhaps an arc involving Raven Tail will be next... Think he joined up with his father's guild? Baithin 21:09, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
I think he probably either left somewhere to atone for what he has done to his former guild, or taken by Ivan and gotten his Lacrima taken out. I was also thinking that the next arc would be a battle against Raven Tail. I also think it could be the arc where Makarov chooses a succesor.--Cifer64 21:24, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
Nah, I don't think Luxus would just get his Lacrima taken out - not offscreen, anyway. It would kill him, and I'd find it highly unlikely to be mentioned by someone. He might have been captured by Raven Tail... perhaps this will be the driving force for the next arc? Hmm... Who do you think Makarov would pick as a successor? Do you think he may get majorly involved in this arc and end up battling his son and/or grandson? If so... I think it would definitely be interesting if he lost his battle and never got to choose a successor, leaving everyone else to pick up the pieces. However, if he were to pick one, or if someone decided to step up to the plate after his death, I would think Erza would do it. Unless the trust between Gazille and Makarov goes deeper than we thought... Or what if Gildartz comes back into the picture? Baithin 21:34, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, now that you mention it I can't really see Luxus getting his Lacrima taken out. I would see Makarov choosing Erza because she seems like she would be the the strongest one that isn't to reclusive or ruthless. That would be and intresting twist if Ivan and Makarov fought and Mak was defeated. I think if something like that were to happen, I think Gildarts would step into the picture and take over the guild. I also think that Laxus will be a central part of the next arc if this is what it will be about, but I don't know what type or role he would play.--Cifer64 21:45, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
Well, that all depends on Gildartz's character. The only thing we know about him is that he's "impossible." From his shadowed silhouette, he's got spiky hair and a tattered cape. Also, he's old. What old guy has spiky hair? He's definitely going to be quite eccentric, perhaps even a little insane (but in the good way). I think he might even resemble Jiraiya from Naruto a little bit. As for Luxus' role in this theorized next arc, he might end up as Ivan's lackey at first, fighting against his old allies again, but he might get some sense knocked into him and turn around in the end, (hopefully) to save Makarov's life if he ever went up against Ivan. Baithin 19:08, October 12, 2009 (UTC)
I hope that they don't make him bad again because I was just starting to like him when the Fighting Festival arc ended. Who's side do you think Gajeel's is on? Do you think he might be tricking Makarov or do you think he is truly loyal to Fairy Tail?--Cifer64 21:26, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, I like good!Luxus. As for Gajeel, I think he's a good guy, but they'll try to trick us into thinking otherwise yet again. Baithin 02:06, October 15, 2009 (UTC)
I think that Gajeel is good too. They will probably try to trick us a few times to, but in the end, I think he will be on the good side. If not, I'll be upset because he is one of my favorite characters.--Cifer64 02:11, October 15, 2009 (UTC)
Dragon Slayers[]
How many are there? Where did their dragons go? Why did all the dragons disappear on the same day (All those 7s in a row)? As for how many (real ones) there are, I would say 7, considering that number keeps popping up in everything that has to do with those dragons. As for where they are...? This might sound like a crazy theory, but don't dismiss it yet. What if they're INSIDE of their dragon slayer? I take this evidence from Dragon Slayer Mode - where more and more scales seem to cover the user and they become much more draconic. What if, by using this skill too much, it causes them to fully transform into their dragon? I'd like to hear all your thoughts on this. Baithin 19:33, October 13, 2009 (UTC)
Intresting Idea. That would explain why Grandine looked like some portal or something when she was talking to Igneel. I'm personally believe that it is highly unlikely, but I won't dismiss it as a possibility.--Cifer64 21:11, October 13, 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, Grandine looked like a bunch of lights - that was probably some sort of soul projection she used to go visit Igneel. But as for other Dragon Slayers, do you think there may have been only 7, or much more than that? Or fewer? What other elements would they have? I would say all of the primary elements (Fire, Water, Earth, Air, and others depending on the culture) but the inclusion of Metal threw me off a little. Unless Mashima is using the Chinese elements, in which Metal is the fifth one? Or, perhaps, only elements directly related to dragons (Fire, Metal scales, Air for flight)? In either case, I think it fits that the fake Dragon Slayers are the ones who use elements that are not the primary ones, like Lightning and Poison. Perhaps other fakes we might see in the future would be Ice, Sand, or something a little more abstract. Baithin 00:18, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
All of those theories sound really intresting to me. Maybe the there were 7 dragons that had were the were the strongest next to the dragon king. Maybe those 7 have certain elemental attributes that are really different that eachother. Fire can burn, Metal can harden defense, Sky can heal (though I somewhat doubt that is the case). The dragon slayers and dragons are certainly an intresting part of the story and I can't wait to see what signifigance they have in the story.--Cifer64 00:44, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
That's another good idea. Dragon King? That'd be totally cool... Oh! I'm going to shamelessly self-promote my Fairy Tail fanfiction - it's one that incorporates a lot of my above theories, but there are 7 Dragon Slayers... Fire, Metal, Sky, Lightning (Luxus is the real deal), Dark (Zeref), Holy, Water. Check it out if you like... the link to it is in my profile on this site =) Baithin 00:59, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
I read the first chapter of your fanfic and I thought it was really good :). I'm definatly going to continue reading it.--Cifer64 01:29, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
I read the second chapter and I found it really intresting. It has a different feel from the manga which I like. I can't wait to read more :).--Cifer64 05:09, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
Thanks, I'm glad you like it so far =) Good thing you're a big Happy fan... *cough* Baithin 18:46, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
Important Information (October, 2010)[]
Hi mi friends, due to some short of nothing-to-do time i got into, now i do have some extra time to edit my favorite page, great eh? Anyway, my important info of this month is: searching for something on other wikis as well as the central community wiki i found out that the wikia staff is wanting to change the Monaco style for another fancy one. They even come up with a Monaco expiration date (November 3, 2010), of course they say the change will be little by little but i have my doubts about this (you can read about their plans in Wikia Staff Blog, calendar: Updates on Wikia's New Look). Finally, i am trying to get in touch with the wikia staff guys, maybe they can fix the "admin membership problem" we're been having, as only bureaucrats (higher than a normal admin, normally the founders of the wikis) can promote someone into administrator and Retro7 hasn't been around for a lot of months now (the guys in the Reaborn wiki are missing him for this kinds of problems too). Ok, guess it's everything.
One last thing, the firsts days i was wandering around this wiki, i ask Chaos to renew the main page (things like the picture of the month or the article of the month, for example) and he told me the especific days he does that kinds of stuffs, i agreed because the changes he does are cool. But if you have read the edit policies and if you agreed with that, there says that all the major edits must be discussed first, so why don't we vote for the monthly stuffs (again, still just my opinion). Fuyu 22:38, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
Replacing 'Monaco' with the 'New Look' design...[]
I actually know this when the announcement first came out, and had a strong mixed feeling towards this advancement. While it is good that they are updating so to enhance our experiences with the Wikia, the design is, in truth, quite disappointing. The new design will make the pages shrink quite a bit, and may force us to redesign our pages so that it looks better. Right now I have already set the wikia to display the 'New Look', but so far it's still giving me the 'Monaco' style. If there's any transition, I will notify you guys as soon as I can. ChaosKnight 22:42, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
The transition to the new look has started, and honestly... it functions really different. Couple of pages got hit bad, especially the manga with templates... I also don't really like the fact that the pages sizes are much smaller than the monaco skin... But in the end, you have to see it for yourself to experience it. ChaosKnight 15:28, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
Magic sections[]
Lately, I've seen that most Magic and abilities sections are being rewritten, with the name of the kind of magic replaced by "Master Magician". Isn't that a bit non-descriptive in a manga where almost every character has magical powers? Is every single magic user (as I said, almost every character) going to be listed simply as "Master Magician"?
I agree that some Magic section might nave needed to be shortened, with the whole list of spells being sent to their respective articles, but some of the specific descriptions should be kept. For instance, Hades's Magic section makes no mention at all of his chain magic or his Amaterasu spells, which are only named in the pictures.
In addition, Natsu or Gray may have subsections called "Master Dragon Slayer" (is there any Dragon Slayer not considered "Master"?) and "Ice Make Master", respectively, but it looks as if it were some kind of secondary magic for them.
PS: Sorry if there's already been a discussion about this, but I haven't been able to find it93.156.153.6 18:17, January 10, 2011 (UTC)
Natsu, Grajeel, and Wendy are from the past
Think about this, Eclispe Gate is a doorway to the dragon world, where time has no concern. Although Natsu said one day he slept and the next day, Igneal was gone. I think Natsu and all 1st gen and 3rd gen Dragon Slayers were put into suspended animation when the humans and dragon tried to seal Acnologia behind the Eclispe gate. We know that Zeref knows Natsu somehow, and we know that Natsu had not beat him before even in the past. We know that the Acnologia tried to create a new war but the humans and dragons had set up the feast of the dragon king as a trap. with the promise of the humans, the dragons agreed to drag acnologia through the gate if the respecting Dragon slayers are put into stasis, hidden, and are to wake up if Acnologia has broken from his so-called prison. we know that Acnologia had broken out causing the Dragon slayer to wake up with no parents. we also know that Future Lucy had the same presence as did Zeref, so Zeref must have used the gate before. And Zeref have cause Acnologia to transform from human to dragon, and the magic that everyone seem to know as Zeref's magic are actually spell for kids like summoning dolls from the ground to play with him or a flute that annoys people
Long screenshots[]
Long screenshots[]
Good morning. I'm not sure, if there is anouther place, where I shoul ask such qureastions, but for a long time I always wanted to know, how do you make long screenshots. For example, when new hero appears, he is being shown from head to toes. But you upload in wiki his or her full appearense in one image. Is the only way to do this: to cut part of the video in gif, and only then make it an image? Ксиле́ма 09:38, July 25, 2016 (UTC)
