I've just finished the last volume of Fairy Tail, volume number 63, and what an incredible journey it has been!

Hiro Mashima's masterpiece comes to a close after 63 volumes spanning 11 years. I've devoured the entire series in approximately the past year, and it's evident how the author has evolved over time. The level of detail in the series increased with every chapter, culminating in an outstanding and precious style.

As for the story's progression, you can also see the series maturing with each episode, with threads becoming more complex while retaining the joyful, vibrant, and classic shonen manga style from the beginning. Each story arc arguably surpasses the previous one, and the climax aligns perfectly with the essence of the series.

The ending of the series can be endlessly debated; some love it, while others may not. In my opinion, the series concludes in a predictably happy manner, never forgetting its roots and the love for its characters.

This is a must-read for all manga lovers out there. You'll encounter unforgettable characters like Natsu, Lucy, and the remarkable Erza (one of the best female characters I've ever encountered in manga) who will stay with you forever.

Termineeeeee jajajaj pues el último arco no me gustó, salieron un montón de cosas de la nada que no tenían fundamentos sólo estaban porque sí. Personajes imposibles y nadie murió :'v y los que morían después revivian 🤷🏻‍♀️ y el final para que decir ps hajaja

Pero en general no estuvo tan mal, me gustaron muchas cosas del manga unos cuantos personajes me mantenían interesada y al final igual disfruté leyéndolo a pesar de todo. Sus puntos negativos, como mencioné una vez, es que no hay una historia y en el último arco se ve clarito.
No se si leeré la misión de los 100 años, quizás espere a que la terminen porque igual quiero ya irme por one piece otra vez jeje 🥰 ahí veré después.

It was honestly so sad for me to see this manga decline as low as it did. The final arc was dragged on for like two years with nothing more than crappy and repetitive fights against boring enemies, the gross and unnecessary fan service, and the completely predictable "plot twists". All that to have it end in a super happy ending, where Team Natsu walks off into the sunset as if what they had been through hadn't been traumatizing and everything's okay like it was at the very beginning of the manga. It was a shitty final arc and a shitty ending. And I'm pissed at it because I love the characters so much and the manga was so, so great until the last two arcs. It was just very disappointing and sad to see this story being finished so carelessly.

After 11 years, the manga has reached it's end. I just want to thank Mashima for this amazing adventure.
I really loved it and I hope we can see a little more again someday.

All 545 chapters for this ending, which is expected of Mashima but please... Too much "nakama" and friendship bullshit. I know it's necessary BUT IT'S STILL TOO MUCH. Other than that, it's not too bad? Character development could be improved and some characters need more panel time.

I like Gajeel a lot, for a dragon slayer that appeared before Wendy, he sure got a lot of panel time... (Note the sarcasm). Gray is really cool too, he's on par with Natsu except he gets so little panel time as well when he fights. I don't know if that makes him OP or just to place emphasis on Natsu.

Oh, Mavis and Zeref's death was pathetic, and of course Makarov is alive. How? Gray never really gave a "proper" answer, not one that I counted as proper anyways... They also managed to defeat Acnologia in less than a chapter, when it took the rest of the world like, 400 years? Or what and they still couldn't defeat him.

I guess Fairy Tail isn't too bad? I mean, maybe the anime is probably better so I've heard, and since I've had such high expectations for it I guess I'm just a bit disappointed.

Reseña completa en el último tomo✌🏼😁👇🏼

De mis mangas favoritos. Tiene arcos espectaculares, con muchísima acción, y magia por todos lados. Una magia que va cambiando de acuerdo a quien la utilice, pudiendo ser de las sombras, de luz, de espacio-tiempo, de invocaciones, de dragones, hay de todo tipo y para todos los gustos, cada uno con sus explicaciones, y desarrollos de acuerdo al portador de esa magia.

Este mundo posee gremios, a donde acuden los magos que cumplen trabajos como aventureros para aquellos que precisen de una magia en particular, de la expulsión de algún malestar, o contratos para matar monstruos, hay de todo tipo también. Cada trabajo depende de las habilidades del mago, y los gremios, a su vez, son custodiados por el consejo. Ahora bien, hay gremios oscuros, ilegales, que salen de esta norma, y causan malestar en la comunidad de magos.

Ese sería un pantallazo de lo que ocurre en el continente. "Fairy Tail" es un gremio, y en el manga se sigue a diversos aventureros de la misma, siendo Natsu, Happy, Lucy, Gray y Erza, los más protagonistas, aunque a medida que avanzan los tomos, aparecen más personajes con sus historias, entremezclandose con el gremio, y haciendo crecer a una gran familia de la que es demasiado fácil encariñarse.

Los tomos están atravesados por diversos arcos que contarán algún suceso en particular y añadirán personajes, como así también permiten el desarrollo personal de los protagonistas junto a sus poderes. Todos aportan algo diferente que será crucial, y que entretejen una trama por debajo que sale a la luz en estos últimos tomos. Es genial llegar a la última instancia con tanto conocimiento de todo lo que ocurre en ese mundo. Si bien por momentos el "poder de la amistad" me parecía un tanto mucho para resolver los conflictos, tienen las explicaciones y el amor suficiente para hacerme olvidar de ellos y amar a Fairy Tail con locura.

Sin dudas, recomendadísimo si buscas magia, familia, gremios, peleas extremas y extravagantes, y preciosos personajes.

Gracias por leer 😊

I very much enjoyed this Manga and one of if not my favourite of all time.

This series is addictive and the power increase and development of characters flows logically with lots of increase stakes by the end.

The last 1200pgs of the series I read in one sitting and the 2000ish page in one sitting the weekend before.

If you love a battle manga I can’t recommend enough and happy I jumped back in after a 6+ hiatus of reading.

Will mostly pick up the sequel series down the line, but probably when it finished or older then 3 years.

And I have finished Fairy Tail, I'm a little emotional to actually be done with this series. I have read it off an on for years and just recently decided to focus on it and finish the series. It was such a journey and I'm glad about the time I spent with everyone.

Rating he whole series;
not just the last volume: with an overall rating of: ★★★☆☆
a plain 3


I do get why this series mean a lot to some people, and even though I don't love it as much, it was an awesome read.
What made me dislike it a but was the lack of real consequences for the main cast. it got to a point where there was no longer any tension cause iw as sure nothing bad was gonna happen to them.
anyway, might take a break from this universe and wait a bit to read 100yq and jump to another series.

A fun adventure series that really stumbles toward an unsatisfying conclusion. I finished this series years ago and I completely forgot it existed at all until this week, when I realized I never reviewed it. I think that says enough.

That’s the end of the story.
It’s not technically a 5 stars manga, but a 5 stars ending to me 🌟🌟🌟
I didn’t want to finish this series but that day finally came. 😢
Though it’s cheesy and full of cliche, possibly very unoriginal…I still enjoy the Animation I’ve watched so far as well as this ending.
The guild setting is pretty much what I dream to play in a triple A video game..what a shame that no developer is interested...
One day, I will go through all the graphic novels of this series from volume 1 to the very end!
Will miss every single character and every single moment!
See you again, friends.

Après 63 tomes, c'est la fin purée ! J'adore cette série, j'adore les personnages, l'univers, oui on est toujours sur les mêmes schémas soyons honnêtes, oui le pouvoir de l'amitié résout tout mais franchement ça fait tellement du bien. Il y a des livres comme ça, des univers dans lesquels on veut se plonger dedans juste parce qu'on s'y sent bien et c'est clairement le cas pour moi avec Fairy Tail.
Tout m'a plu et j'ai hâte de lire les différents spin-offs qui existent !!!

C'était trooooop chouette !!! J'ai la larmichette !

Y'know that feeling you get when you finish an awesome book and you get sad because you finished it, but at the same time, you're happy because the characters got their good endings?

Yup, this book gave me that feeling and I'm 120% satisfied. Thank you Hiro-sama for making this amazing series T_T

(P.S. Did anyone else notice that Zeref's "wings" kind of looked like the wings on Fairy Sphere?)

Unpopular opinion for this series: This was a series I had a love/hate relationship with to be quite honest the years I was partly reading/half watching years ago. I just remembered, that I hated the ending so freaking much.

Edit: Upon rating all the volumes now. I wish the main group were as follows instead of what people got: Cana, Juvia, Gajeel, and then Laxus (cause I can't think of another male char that'd fit.). Maybe instead of Wendy, Levy.

My gripe was I cared for none of the "Main team," throughout this entire series.

I forgot to log this early, but I read the whole series again (well maybe I skipped a couple parts) just because I missed Juvia and I am still obsessed with her character design!!!

This is it you guys, this is the final freaking volume of Fairy Tail. I so wasn't ready for it, I got back from my vacation and it was sitting in the pile of post I had, and I just opened it and stared at it for a good few minutes because you know...so not ready! The cover hit me in the feels and made me come over all nostalgic and the chapter art gave me so much nostalgia too!

After mentally preparing myself for one of my favourite series ever coming to an end, I finally started to read it and oh my God. Mavis hit me in the feels right from the start and there's a blissful moment when all seems well....before it all comes crashing down. Like I was thinking 'okay, but this is all kind of convenient' and it was like I could hear Mashima's evil laughter before he was like "SURPRISE B****".

This volume, it's the dragon slayers time to shine, and there's so much action packed in to this volume! But not just the slayers, everyone gets to have their moment in the spotlight, and their moment to be a badass too!

Everything ends happily, and for those that ship certain characters....while some things could be seen to be a bit ambiguous, there are some ships that are quite clearly sailing....finally. I loved getting a glimpse in to the characters lives since the final battle and it really rounded everything out and wrapped it all up and made me so emotional. It's really the perfect blend of action, and heartwarming moments...something to be expected from Fairy Tail.

There's plenty of nostalgia to be had thanks to Lucy and I totally got a bit choked up reading this final volume, I'm not going to lie. I don't think I'll ever be ready for this to be over, like I've still got the anime and the spin off series but still! I'm just sad there won't be any new Fairy Tail adventures but I have to say...the series has come to a truly fitting end, I loved the final couple of pages so much!

Honestly, I was surprised with myself for sticking with this entire series. I generally do not enjoy more shounen manga, especially the long-term ones, but this tale had more unique factors I enjoyed. It's fun, goofy, yet serious and dramatic - at times, it displayed more maturity than other comparable series, such as One Piece, but not quite as dark as other like Bleach. If you have the time for a 63-volume set about a weird tale of magic, dragons, insanity, this may be right up your alley.

¡¡Y al fin lo terminé <3!!
Esta es y será una de mis historias favoritas que nunca me cansaré de ver o leer. Aunque siento que le faltó más acción a las peleas importantes del último arco, la verdad esperaba un final más épico.

It has taken me just over a year to finish this series, but I did it yesterday. Woot for me!

Anyway, I will attempt to write a series review.

It starts out simple enough with the introduction of Lucy and her want of being a Fairy Tail. And the rest of the beginning books introduce the various character of said guild.

As we continue on we find out Loke is a celestial being, Laxus is a dragon slayer, and Mystogen is a person from Erza's past. When we read about the first big adventure with Grey, Lucy, and Natsu it is the very first arc that will travel throughout the series.

The mention of demons and the books of Zeref will transverse the series and will get more prevalent as we continue.

There are moments when guilds face off and hold grudges, either true or preceded, and they fight with Natsu or some other character. And many times they are defeated and become members of Fairy Tail. Example, Juvia.

There are more dragon slayers introduced and many start out as enemies but turn into friends. There are dark guilds and more back stories that go with them. There are moments of crossing over to another world, time travel, and even changing the future by warning people in the present.

There are extreme fights between oop characters, lots of them, lots and lots of them. And our dashing heroes win the day mainly.

There are three time jumps. Seven freaking years. Dude, so not cool. It happens around book 38, I think. I hate things like that. It harsher my mellow and it took me a while to get back into the series.

The latter half of the series is all about Zeref and Mavis, the first master of Fairy Tail. It builds up as Zefef's demons are unleashed. Until the big show down at the end where we get the final character back ground story of Ezra and her true beginnings.

The last few books are the epic fight between Zeref's country and the wizarding guilds. It end with the contradiction of love and a curse.

Despite the moments of pervy moments where Lucy and a few other characters clothes are ripped off from battle or other various causes, which was a bit much. But Lucy never dressed in clothes fit for fighting anyway. Always skimoy outfits. And Grey taking off his clothes.

All in all, it was a fun series, and one I would read again. For now, I have the side stories that I can read and then go on to the next huge series.
