I just watched the first episode of Fairy Tail and in this thread, I am going to be sharing my thoughts as I progress into the story! I hope you enjoy this journey with me!

#FairyTail episode 1 review

Episode 1 review:

Interesting and an enjoyable first episode. A good start to grab the audience's attention and makes you want to watch the next episode immediately. The lore isn’t that complex yet but the story is already quite dark. In a world where magic is everything +

some Wizard’s are corrupted and use magic to manipulate others and several other reasons. The women that Lucy stood up for were probably gonna get r*ped. I think that shit is DARK for a first episode. I loved the emotion Lucy expressed in that scene. I love her character already+

She has an interesting personality. At first she seemed like a girl who wouldn't have much depth as a character but she actually does. She is very enthusiastic and has a goal she wants to achieve no matter what. She has a short temper too which is adorable imo. Not to mention +

she stood up for herself and those women which makes her a very strong girl in my eyes. She wanted to join the Fairy Tail guild (which is the best guild in the country). She met Natsu who is a member of the guild but she wasn't aware of that. I loved how "Salamander's" spell +

broke as soon as Lucy saw Natsu. Her treating him to a meal was pretty wholesome as she wanted to thank him. She is very expressive.

Natsu's character... I don't think there is much to talk about YET. He is goofy despite being a member of Fairy Tail haha. However +

I love how he went out of his way to stop the crime that was happening. He has strong morals. He initially came to the city looking for Igneel (I believe the dragon's name was). Furthermore, he is very strong. He is able to change his body parts or whatever to that of a dragon? +

I don't remember but I think it was mentioned that him and Igneel met each other before. Perhaps Igneel taught him or something. His reveal of being a Fairy Tail member was BADASS imo. I had the same reaction as Lucy haha. He demolished his opponent with his Dragon Slayer jutsu +

Now, let's not forget that Lucy is a Wizard too. She summoned a CELESTIAL SPIRIT FROM ANOTHER DIMENSION which is insane and creates a lot of room for world building!! How many dimensions and spirits are there!? Additionally, I loved how she didn't give up on Natsu and the girls +

even after being taken away by happy. She was determined to help them. She isn't selfish at all as a person. I guess you have to be that way to be a great wizard! Overall, I really liked how they managed to pack so many things in a single episode. I loved Lucy and Natsu's +

relationship development in this episode. Idk if it's too early but I ship them already hahaha but we will see. Lucy's future looks bright and exciting and I can't wait to see more from Natsu's character! Didn't like the animation much tbh but it wasn't bad. Rating: 9/10
