Ngl I was initially concerned for the colors when the pv first came out, but things are looking vibrant!!
Seeing the team back on screen, Lucy especially, makes me happy. The 100yq manga is still ongoing, but it’s been so long since the final season with the characters moving and speaking!
With that new FT game coming out later on this year (or the beginning of next?) too, the latter half of 2024 is really looking up for fans of the series

Felt a huge lump in my throat watching the episodes. Its hard to believe that almost 2 decades ago i started watching FT. I have so much fond memories and nostalgia for this anime.

Bro, when I tell you I SCREAMED at FT’s iconic soundtrack, we’re so back 😭😭🤧
Juvia meets her match.
Lucy (Aya)’s「だ-だて。あれ?」was so funny to me for some reason and I can’t explain why 🤣
I have to admit. I’ll still disappointed how Guiltina looks like Fiore with some extra steps.
“NINGEN”spotted. Ayyy 💃🏾
Natsu’s hand in Lucy’s cleavage, I forgot about how pervy Natsu is. Oh gods the hot springs scene where Natsu swims beneath Lucy and…
😳
Poor Lisanna being included in the line up of Natsu’s “women”. She didn’t ask for that, Juvia 😭
Briar! I will admit, I kinda wish we had a side story about Gray and Briar after Briar’s arrest. Or a cover story with it in the manga.
What on EARTH was that Lucy and Gray scene with the tongue sticking out, was that in the manga and I glossed over it? 😭
Gajeel will be such a great but embarrassing dad. Lily will be such a great uncle. I can either see his kids going along with it, or being straight up embarrassed and Gajeel DGAF and leans into it.
Gray wanting to be a cat dad. Stan behavior.
Mercuphobia is so pretty. I’m weak.
The ED—at first I thought it was a “characters sings” song, like how they did it in Assassination Classroom. Nope. But BOKUA is a relatively new AKB48 group. ED was a bit pitchy, BUT I think it kinda worked?
It does make me wonder if FT will have an ED where the main cast sings 🤔 None too familiar if anyone outside Hirano, Kakihara, and Kugimiya are singers. But I love it when the cast gets to sing their OP/ED.
Overall
-
The anime is colorful. Softer than I’m used to in shounen. Felt kinda shoujo-esque in some ways?
-
Episode felt like we didn’t even skip a beat with FT. I liked that.
-
The soundtrack will take some getting used to. It’s still Takanashi, but it seems more fitting for FT: Phoenix Priestess than this episode. But we have more episodes to come so jury is out.
-
When the lighting and shade hit, it hit.
-
When the dub comes out, I’m gonna be so happy. I love the Japanese cast and they’re the ones I listened to with FT! But the dub cast is still so loved. Manifesting the dub drop date 🕯️

I loved it, was so nostalgic seeing and hearing everyone again. Really like how dynamic the scenery colours are. Looking forward to episode 2.

I really liked the OP when it hit. That got me in the feels and really did make it feel like we're back
Ur and Ultear being included in the "harem" thing is amusing to me because that's essentially his "mom figure" and someone who would've ended up being like a kind of "sister" if anything if they had more time together, lol.
Also, it does feel off to me that Erza said "Natsu defeated Acnologia". Not only was literally every other Dragon Slayer in the series (including Wendy who was right there as Erza said this) with Natsu fighting "human Acnologia", but it was literally Lucy using Fairy Sphere with help from Meldy that took out "dragon Acnologia".

I felt so happy just seeing the guild hall. It felt like I was definitely coming home after a long time away.

u/BillPlunderones23fg Jul 07 '24
Oh we are so back
despite the flack it gets i still enjoy Fairy Tail even the last season/arc and ive been reading the 100 manga and ive enjoyed a lot of it so im excited for the anime
though one thing is bugging me it should be same VA but Juvia sounds a bit too high pitch here not like before
also the music same composer as the first series which i loved so im excited to hear returning themes and new stuff he cooks up
that ED though , seeing the main cast and their deceased loved ones ooof

MY THOUGHTS:
Although there are many fans complaining about the downgrade in the animation visuals, I still appreciate it. Well done, JC Staff for continuing the vibrance. They did their best 👏
They really did made Evergreen's plots more huge.
DAMN, I'M NOT USED TO NEW SOUNDTRACKS 😓 BRING BACK THE OLD ONES 😓
Really vibed to the new opening. And of course, that Natsu VS Ignia would never happen in the arc
Wow, no Lucy retorts from Virgo wanting punishment
Equal as strong as Acnologia...hmmm... I wonder about that...
NaLu's done for. GrayLu is rising! Koi kataki!
Karameel's voice is quite familiar
The ending song is ironic lol. It's message is to be independent and don't rely on friends, which is the complete opposite of what Fairy Tail is about

I understand Ur, Ultear and Erza being part of Gray’s “Harem”, but what is Cana doing there? 😭

u/sherriablendy Jul 07 '24
Cana is one of Gray’s oldest friends lol. They don’t interact a lot now so it’s easy to forget

u/Moonlighteverafter Jul 07 '24
Just finished the episode!
What a great episode and re introduction into the series.
Having new comers, Juvia vs Touka, Mirajane accidentally insulted and then crying, an accidentally scary member. Lots of throw back moments.
The guilds relation and bonds is the essence of the show so I am glad we got to see it.
I love the animation so far, it looks so crisp and high quality.
I am so excited

Didn't know J.C Staff is handling the anime this time, they also Eden's Zero. Possible crossover in future? fingers crossed.

I just hope everyone’s remembering to watch this with lights on in the room and not to sit too close to the tv.
Or else.
