I honestly tried to enjoy this peice of garbage but I am done putting up with a shitty writer.
I enjoy the art style as the guy who made this used to be an assistant to the guy who makes One Piece. There are moments when the show is interesting, however the writer jerks the audience around and treats them like idiots because he is a horrible writer.
Take where every time the good guys get attacked or have to fight, their leader who is supposed to be super strong ends up not being able to fight because he is sick/dieing. However once the fight is over BAM hes 100% healthy.
This seems like such a rip off and a repeatedly used plot device.
The worst case is when one of the Guild members (who is the guild masters grandson) wants to take over the guild stages a mini war between the guild. Apparently the guild master falls over and people proclaim he is dieing and there is a chance for this to be of some emotional impact, however once the fighting is over... BAM hes 100% healthy and no worries he is not dieing...
Lame.
Then there is the whole thing with this one evil guy. He is the main villain for a arc. They don't show what he looks like but when they do show what he looks like it turns out he looks exactly like a good guy who is on the mages council. Why is this? Well they explain that they are both twin brothers one good and one evil, which no one questions... Even though the evil guy was a slave as a kid and no one wonders why one was a slave and the other was not? Did the guys parents not try and find/save their child who was a slave and not yet evil?
Well it turns out that ends up being the author jerking you around as it always is.
It ends up that they are both the same evil guy and it was a mental projections that was the good twin. Wow so no one ever noticed that huh? Even though his bad guys good twin thought projection was around dozens of super powerful mages.
Then 20 episodes later one of the fairy tail mages is a good guy who never shows his face. He shows his face and He looks exactly like the evil twin guy... WTF? Don't worry its revealed later that he just happens to look like the evil twin guy but he is not the evil twin guy.
Yea its a really stupid show and I am done watching it. The good will the author had from having worked on One Piece is now gone.
