Now, let's play together...under the clearest of blue skies.
|
Opening was kinda blah, exposition world of magic etc. Opening song was pretty cool. There was a cool-looking red-headed knight in there too that kind of reminded me of Vielle, except inexplicably sporting angel wings. Or maybe just a really badass skirt. She'll probably end up being my favorite character![]() I swear to god I've seen this thing before somewhere. Okay, so there's some pink-haired guy (Only in anime!) who's apparently got some kind of horrible mutated weaponized version of motion sickness. It was mildly amusing when the train took off with him, but eh. ![]() Just in case you forgot what show you were watching. Oh no! There's only one magic store in the whole city. How ever will our main character cope with this heinous challenge? ![]() Really? Well, as long as shirtless guys abound, it balances out, right? A crowd of people! Surely a happening is happening. Apparently it's that 'salamander' guy the pink-haired dude was talking about. Who managed to get back to the town safely! And at least one squeeing fangirl apparently has a fetish for third-degree burns. Also, the main character has apparently never seen a hot guy before. ![]() WHAT IS THIS STRANGE ALIEN SENSATION THAT TURNS MY EYEBALLS INTO PINK HEARTS Speaking of pink, that pink-haired guy is back. ![]() They're fangirls, Natsu. The guy says "Red Carpet" with surprisingly good English, but... ![]() That's not a carpet. In fact, it's not even red. It's just a purple squiggly line. I mean, I know it's supposed to be a reference to "flying carpets" but seriously. You could have at least made it vaguely square-shaped or something. So yeah, the guy blasts off, Natsu turns out to be the stereotypical "black hole for a stomach" anime guy. The girl is talking and providing a bit of exposition but the guy is just totally ignoring him and eating. Sigh. Guilds kind of sound like colleges in the real world, incidentally. Or at least that's the impression I was getting. That damned cat is already annoying and we're not even halfway through the first episode yet. Also: 10 bucks says the girl in that photo spread in the magazine is gonna pop up later. ![]() Nice entrance, by the way So, the Purple Squiggly Line Carpet turns out to be a member of FAARY TEEIRU, and wants to get Lucy in the guild, in return for attending a party. You really gotta wonder though, what's wrong with just, you know...submitting an application? Whatever. Dear god that laugh was bad. That was worse than Yoh's SHISHISHISHI laugh in the first episode of Shaman King. Lucy, don't even do that again. Please. Jeez, Natsu gets sick just LOOKING at a ship? This is just getting over the top. ![]() Apparently Fairy Tale did something to this guy Nice dress by the way, Lucy. But really, Salamander. The floaty droplets of wine thing? Not nearly as sexy as you think it is. ![]() I would have done that even without the sleep spell attached And then a bunch of burly goons appear. I REALLY should have seen that one coming. And with another purple squiggly line, Lucy loses her keys. ![]() SAY GOODBYE TO EXODIAAAAAA Oh, the pink-haired guy is back. ![]() Why no, I haven't seen Escaflowne. Why do you ask? Interesting to note: If I had been in Lucy's situation, I would not have remembered Natsu and Happy's names. Also, the cat has wings now. What? ![]() What a new and exciting visual effect. "Uh-oh, I fell from 500 feet in the air! Good thing that unlike in real life, falling into water makes you take no damage whatsoever." The cat wasn't so lucky though. But seriously, who cares? It's annoying as hell. And I usually love cats. So, Lucy is a summoner. Neat-o. But her summons apparently don't like her. I guess it's something like badges in pokemon red/blue. Somehow, every single one of Aquarius's poses somehow involve her sticking her breasts in the air. ![]() We managed to bring the boat to shore, and the tidal wave only killed 10,000 people! It was around when Aquarius dissapeared that I noticed that the cat kind of looks like that one cat in Seiken Densetsu 3. The one that breaks Hawkeye out of jail in the beginning if you choose him as the first character. Except this one is smaller. Is anyone else seeing that? Oh, Natsu's a wizard? Didn't see that one coming. Oh, he's a wizard from FEERIE TEEIRU? Really didn't see that one coming. I'm not being sarcastic either, this whole scene actually surprised me. So, apparently Bora got thrown out of a guild named Titan Nose. Who the hell names their guild after a nose? WATCH OUT THERE'S A GIANT NOSE AFTER US, RUN!! Close enough. Uh-oh, pink hair boy got hit by some more purple. But what's this!?!? ![]() So yeah, I can EAT FIRE but I can't ride a freaking train without vomiting. Ironclad stomach, right? Incidentally, "Roar of the Fire Dragon" is probably what happens when you combine motion sickness with an active volcano. Oh, Natsu is the real salamander? Huh. ![]() Seriously, was this guy like a Mushihimesama boss reject? I guess Natsu's dragon stuff is the "fire magic you can't buy in stores" Lucy was talking about in the beginning. And that fake salamander guy gets owned. ![]() Hint: starts with an "F" And, so after inadvertently destroying the town with his Ending song was cute too. Over-all, pretty cool. Definitely an anime series I'll be paying attention to. |

Interesting, I do admit it was a series I mean to pick up, seeing it is, to me, 'new'. It has no ties that i know of to a previous series (like Railgun) or is a second season to anything. I'll go see if I'll pick it up, but I don't think the industry will bring out anything like Tytania, Zipang, or similar anime like it in awhile. Woe is the Government Major who wishes for 'deeper' anime. |

NICE DRIVE!

As some notes... The familiar creature is actually Plue from Groove RAVE Adventure (Rave Master to the US) which was Mashima's first full length work before Fairy Tail. Friendly nod to all his fans~ The series has been compared to One Piece but with Magic and I think that's a pretty good comparison; it's a very good series. The first episode was pretty spot on with the introductory story of the manga. Also I'd argue Lucy doesn't fall in love with Natsu right off the bat. You're kind of trying to pile in more cliche's than there exist there. Also most of her summons have huge personality flaws, which makes for a nice twist. |

Def one of my fav manga series...just hoping it'll be a good anime version.... And I'm hoping it's not going to be just 24 episodes or whatever. I still need to watch the EP. |
