When Wendy first unlocked her dragon force, I was genuinely confused why her color pallet changed when it didn't for other dragon slayers. (Her hair, eyes, etc.) And why specifically pink?

At 12 I thought it was just because of how she perceived Natsu and how she idolized him, so she embodied some of his traits as a way of acknowledging that he gave her strength, but now I think I get the real reason.

Porlyusica is the Edolos version of Grandeeney, and if the dragon gods have human forms, it could be safe to assume the dragon slayers dragons also had human forms and I'd imagine Grandeeneys was very similar to Porlyusica.

Just like Natsus scales and Gajeels steel exterior during their dragon forces that resemble their dragon parents, Wendy also took on physical attributes that resembled Grandeeney.

Wendys' similarities to her dragon were so much more subtle than when the boys each activated their dragon force unless you remembered the tiny little detail Porlyusica shared with Wendy right before the GMG about being from Edolos.

The thing about Edolos is that we've noticed is that personalities tend to change from Earthland, but physical appearances, not so much. (With the exception of Makarov if you believe the king was Makarov. I do personally, but since it was never officially, or more rather directly confirmed, we can only speculate. They did cut to the king when Makarov asked about his Edolos version, but that's more insinuation than confirmation.)

But I just thought that was a neat little detail about Wendy's dragon force.

After the Tenroe Island Arc, Lucy asks Virgo how the seven year gap effected the spirits, to which Virgo replied stating that they were fine and it really wasn't that long.

Not that long. In seven years.

Because to the spirits, only 84 days had passed in that seven years. Only 2 and half months.

We actually find out in the same episode this conversation takes place that 1 day in the spirit world is 3 months in the human world.

The sad truth behind Virgos statement about not that much time passing by was right in front of our faces, and it was so discreet and so well placed.

OG Fairy Tail was PEAK storytelling. Every minor detail was important if you caught it. That's how you write a story. Well done, Mashima. Well done.

NALU OUTFITS COLOUR SWAP IS CANONNN 😭

[bubblez-bubble]

I bet we all know why too!

When she took off without them to confront her dad.

When she took off without them to save her dad, in the same season.

They just don't trust that if they don't go with her, that she's not just gonna run off and do some crazy shit like taking on an entire dark guild. She traumatized her team. They no longer trust her to not pull some Natsu shit.

Lucy: I'm literally just going around the corner-

Natsu: and taking on another dark guild by yourself, I knew it! Not this time, babe!

Erza: you really shouldn't be so reckless Lucy.

Gray: yeah we're a team, we'll all go together.

Lucy: *holding a trash bag* ...to take out my trash...

Also that conversion for the Jewels, converted to USD, 100 jewels is about $1. So no, 500 jewels, at least in the US, would in fact not buy them all lunch.

team natsu is ridiculously clingy. lucy goes on a solo job with a 500 jewel reward and they all tag along. I hope you guys weren't expecting to split that

they'd literally follow her anywhere. she could go on a job and now fairy tail's strongest team is picking weeds out of someone's garden

Actual friendly reminder that the thought of seeing Lucy in the shower does, in fact, excite Natsu.

The blush on his face is a dead giveaway for his intentions, and you can't convince me otherwise.

Anybody remember those random bandits from the key of the starry heavens arc that tried to take over Erzas picnic?

Not the fat ones.

The ones on horseback.

Well. "Horseback."

Took me ten years, but I've finally realized wtf those things are. Always thought the things the guys were riding were just really weird looking horses growing up.

Those things are actually the rider and another dude in a fucking two person horse costume.

I'm doing this thing recently where I pay more attention to some of the minor characters cause I've seen the show a million times and know what every scene is, can quote every word by heart. So I'm checking it out from a new perspective and I'm noticing a lot of really strange things about the random little bandit characters in filler scenes in the middle of major arcs.

Anyway, goodnight.

[bubblez-bubble]

Oh my God my heart. It shattered.

I feel sick

[bubblez-bubble]

Just Lucy falling for Natsu 🥰

Literally.

Headcanon for Nalu's marriage views.

Natsu

Wants to get married and start a family right away.

Thinks marriage is a constant competition to see who can be the better spouse.

Very affectionate.

Has a hard time keeping hands to himself.

Constantly wants alone time with his wife.

Competes with other husband's in every way possible.

Constantly talking about why his wife is better.

Proud husband.

Showers wife with compliments as often as he can.

Lucy

Doesn't want to get married right away. (Reminds her of when her dad tried to force a marriage on her to have a son right away.)

Refuses to be a stay at home wife/mom because she'd get bored.

Embarrassed easily in public, but very affectionate behind closed doors.

Doesn't engage when other wives start comparing husbands, but still secretly believes hers is the best.

Love language is gift giving, going all out on holidays and anniversaries.

Gets embarrassed saying "I love you" outloud, but does it anyway just to see husband smile.

Clingy wife, always wanting to be near spouse.

Just wants to make husband happy and feel loved.

Wears wedding ring as a necklace on a chain so she's less likely to lose it while working.

[bubblez-bubble]

Yo, please? 🥺

So we all know Lucy gives off tsundere vibes, but anyone else feel like Natsu gives off yandere vibes?

Just a little...?

[bubblez-bubble]

I'm convinced that when Mashima made Natsu Dragneel, his focus was 100% the female gaze.

How can someone be so adorable...

So scary...

And so fuckable...

ALL AT THE SAME TIME???

AND THIS MAN STILL WANTS TO BELIEVE HES HUMAN???

If we didn't already have confirmation he wasn't, I still wouldn't believe he was. This man is GODLY.

Not to be THAT horny fangirl but...

He could literally fold me like a pretzel any time.

And Lucy can just WORK WITH HIM without feeling horny constantly??? Is SHE human???

"He's just a friend."

Okay. How???

What's really got me in this pannel is Natsu sitting criss-cross on the stool when we ain't never seen him to that at the guild. Guess mans just committed to the bit since he sits that way everywhere else 😭

Also, call back to Natsus gambling addiction anyone?

[bubblez-bubble]

Phoenix Priestess things

Lucy: I'm gonna go help this stranger find herself and whatever she's looking for!

Happy: Why?

Lucy: Um, cause she needs help and that's what wizards do?

Natsu sighing: Guess that means I have to go too.

Lucy: And why do you HAVE to go?

Natsu: Because every time you do literally anything, you get kidnapped, beat, and most of the time, almost die.

Gray, referring to the rest of the team: Guess we're going to then.

Lucy: And why do you guys have to go too?

Happy: Damage control.

Lucy: But I'm not nearly as destructive as the rest of you.

Erza: Oh, it's not for you.

*Everyone looking at Natsu*

Natsu: Okay, ya know what-

[bubblez-bubble]

No cause literally

This man 😫

He can get it any time any place

not to be horny on main but yk…

fuck me so hard actually

The Alvarez Arc was never about Zeref vs Natsu.

It was about Zeref vs Lucy.

Hear me out.

And this may be a bit of a stretch but try to bare with me.

So the Alvarez Arc (AA) is essentially the arc of one brothers army vs another's. At least on the surface. But the main focus of the AA was Natsu's transformation and Zerefs reveal.

After Zeref reveals his and Natsus true identities to Natsu and Happy, Zeref then makes it a point from then on to try and get Natsu to change into his demon form, knowing that Natsu would probably have a hard time controlling it and would destroy everything and everyone in his path just to kill him.

Thankfully, Zeref was only half right. As evident by his four warnings to Gray to get out of his way, Natsu still had some form of control over his actions. This was because his only thoughts were getting rid of Zeref who started the war leading to Lucy's "death." He was driven by revenge, which was what Zeref wanted, as to why he painted himself as the bad guy.

But one thing Zeref hadn't really counted on was Natsus bond with one of his guildmates in particular. Zeref knew who Lucy was from the jump as she and Anna look basically identical. That and Anna and Zeref agreed it would be up to Anna's bloodline to look after the original eclipse project as well as the dragon slayers once they passed through to the other side. So right away, Zeref knows Lucy's goal is protecting Natsu and staying by his side.

So during the AA, it only makes sense that at every turn when Zeref thought he was winning, Natsu would make some miraculous return and start the fight over. But did Zeref know why or how?

Of course he did. Because that was the Heartfilia family's job. To protect and look after the dragon slayers, Natsu included.

So, when Zeref almost got his way the first time and Natsu "lost control," who brought him back to reality (with a little help from Erza)?

Lucy.

When Natsu was knocking on deaths door on the ground with a hole in his gut, who literally took on a curse that Zeref placed on the book, essentially risking their life to rewrite Natsus book, bringing him back from the brink of death to fi is the fight?

Lucy.

Even during Dragon Cry, Lucy is still a thorn in Zerefs side by showing Natsu throughout the movie that she'd always accept him no matter what form he took on, giving Natsu a sense of security, making Zerefs plan to break Natsu down until he's a mindless monster essentially impossible.

Every time during the AA and Dragon Cry movie when it seemed Zeref was finally going to get what he wanted, Lucy came in and snuffed all of his plans out like a candle.

And Zeref by the end could only watch as a human tamed one of his demons. His most powerful demon at that.

Lucy was even almost kind of acknowledged as Natsus reason to live. (As he did try to kill Zeref fully conscious of what he was doing and knowing it would kill him too when he thought she was dead.)

Zeref even tried to play mind games with Natsu but got blocked because the only thing on Natsus mind was Lucy and her life.

The entire AA is literally just Zeref telling Natsu one thing to make him feel terrible and Lucy reassuring him that it wasn't true.

Zeref even tried to make Natsu feel guilty about Lucy rewriting his book, essentially signing her own death warrent, only for Natsu to brush it off because he had more faith in her than some curse Zeref put on a book.

Every time Zeref tried to get into Natsus head, whether Lucy was there or not, her voice always seemed to ring through louder than Zerefs.

The entire arc is a battle for Natsus mentality and its not even being fought by Natsu.

Natsus fighting the physical battle, but Lucy was fighting for Natsus humanity. She was fighting for Natsus life.

In the end she won, and Zeref took the loss with a smile on his face, knowing that somehow a human girl had defeated him in a mental battle over his brother's life.

And he even took pride in it.

Pride in the fact Natsu had found someone who would go to such great lengths, even so far as challenging Zerefs curse power in order to save Natsus life.

That's what the whole arc was, a battle for Natsus fate. A battle that Lucy won and Zeref was happy about it.

Even Mavis knew only Lucy could challenge Zerefs power and change Natsus fate, leaving Lucy with the book as she went to help Natsu confront Zeref.

The one who decided Natsus fate vs the one who changed it.
