A Magical Thesis of Fairy Tail

Fairy Tail is the most popular anime of all time, it is funny and heartwarming while having a fair share of action and adventure while also the importance of a great message to others but there is more into Fairy Tail that will change your life. (P.S. Don't hate me!!!!!)

Fairy Tail is based on a bar that Hiro Mashima went to: Do you know the origin on where Fairy Tail's inspiration come from? The guild was inspired by a bar that Hiro went to. That's why the guild always has drinks in hand and how there is always a lot of fights and when victory came to the guild, they would party hard! Kind of like a big celebration like in bars sometimes. 

The Origin of Natsu and Dragon Slayers' Motion Sickness: When originally creating the series, Mashima was inspired by magicians and wizards. He based Natsu's motion sickness on one of his friends, who gets sick when taking taxis together. So you can probably guessed where the motion sickness came from! 

Fairy Tail is a Revised version of Rave Master: Fairy Tail and Rave Master share a commonality with one another--They both have strong male protagonists, they were both created by Mashima, they have a sex symbol female protagonists and there are enemies in each manga/anime! Though Rave Master is a darker version of Fairy Tail, every enemy dies in the anime and manga. After Rave Master; there was Fairy Tail but Hiro Mashima was against the idea of letting every enemy die as he decides to let them all live but become different people. 

Fairy Tail Are Like Jesus: You know how Fairy Tail come across an enemy, fight it, and the enemy becomes a good person in the end and make amends? Well, Fairy Tail are redeemers almost like Jesus Christ. That's why their enemies are their allies and help them confront their issues. That's why Fairy Tail differs from all of the rest and inspire people to become better people in life for Fairy Tail are the truth and light of the way. 

Lucy is a Christian: It makes sense. In the episode of when Lucy confronts her father when she returns home, she leaves him and visits her mom's grave while also reunites with her friends; she says in her mind: "Mom...I know that you're in Heaven...." It could be possible that Lucy Heartfilia is a Christian because even if she's a Celestial Wizard, she believes that there is a Heaven and could see her mother is watching over her. 

Hiro Mashima, Igneel & Natsu and Lucy's letters--Father Relations: Hiro Mashima, the creator of Fairy Tail, had lost his father and pretended that his father was alive but was away somewhere far. Thus make some sort of inspiration for Natsu and Igneel's relationship. But sadly, Igneel was murdered as Natsu was left in shambles of his grief. It's hinted that it's a metaphor for Hiro finally accepting the fact that his father is actually dead. Lucy's letters to her deceased mother could be an inspiration that Hiro might have written letters for his dead father and telling him of what he's doing now in his life (I could be wrong, IDK). 

Sabertooth and Dysfunctional Family: You know the Sabertooth Guild, right? Those bastards who thought they were the strongest and were so arrogant but were dropped as top dogs but became nicer and a much better guild since their former master was gone. It's possible that the Sabertooth Guild is a metaphor for a dysfunctional family. According to Rogue; he says that the way Fairy Tail treat each of them like family is not the same as it is in Sabertooth, for they were treated like soldiers. Jiemma, the former guild master, is the face of an abuser for his treatment towards Sting, Rogue, Yukino and his only daughter Minerva in such a harsh tone. The abuse was so bad that it made Sting and the others push around others since they were being pushed around like Jiemma did! It's the abuse cycle, until Sting was pushed too far when he thought Jiemma killed Lector and because of Fairy Tail, Sabertooth reflect on their actions and now reformed. These could be metaphors where there is abuse but once you had enough of your abuser, it's time to leave it all behind and ending the cycle while reforming a family with life, love, and laughter. Even though some families in reality don't change so much, still some do. 

Everyone is Bi Curious: There is a bit of homoerotic subtext in the anime, Lucy may have a thing for boys but she has some sort of girl crush on Erza; thinking that she's in love! And also admires Erza's naked body while in the hot springs, saying she looks better without her armor. Lucy and Levy's friendship has some lesbian undertones where Levy wanted to see Lucy's novel, saying: "Can I see it please?" but mentions, "Not your butt but I wouldn't really mind." Lucy mentions that Erza always crawls into Lucy's bed. And Lucy likes to look at pinups of Mirajane in her spare time. And Lucy blushes when Cana gropes her breasts and then there was their bath tub bonding.....Even Juvia and Lucy have a moment after using Unison Raid! Lucy has a horrible thought of Flare torturing after Flare and Raven Tail lost while also disqualify! But the fantasy is quite....interesting don't you think. But it's not always the girls, the boys have it too! Guys like Cancer and Sugarboy become gay for Gray because of his sexiness! HA, it could be his stripping habit and his ice skating moves! Also, Sting was drunk while at the castle as he wants some alone time with Natsu, he seems pretty cheery. And before his and Sabertooth's redemption; Sting didn't care about anything else in the tournament that doesn't involved with Natsu. Hmm, he seems like he's got a male crush on Natsu, weird ain't it? And also there something hinted between Sting and Rogue, right? They are rarely seen more than five feet from each other and are so far the only non-Fairy Tail wizards to preform a Unison Raid, which requires their bodies and magic to be in perfect sync. Rogue also refers to Sting as "his light", and says he won't have to worry about falling into the darkness as long as Sting is around. Huh, who knew! And then there's Cana: There is her love of groping and rubbing up on Lucy lots of times when both are naked. Then when Juvia becomes jealous of Gajeel and Levy's flirting Cana offers to flirt with her while fondling her breasts, as Juvia struggles to refuse her "advances". So it's official, everyone is a bi....Sort of, some of them are! 

Natsu is similar to Naruto: Think about it! These two idiotic heroes who have strong abilities. Natsu may have pink hair while Naruto has yellow blond hair but both aren't so bright and think on their feet while failing hard however they gained on intelligence that they know! 

Gray was originally going to become a Dragon Slayer but it was scrapped: According Hiro Mashima; Gray was originally going to become a dragon slayer like Natsu but it was scrapped and further into the chapters, Gray is now a Demon Slayer....An Ice Demon Slayer, which surprises Natsu and the other Dragon Slayers on the battlefield. It seems Gray is a much 'cooler' Demon Slayer huh! (LOL)

Freed is Gay: It is hinted in some ways, Freed is possibly gay! He's not attractive to other girls, maybe he's bi because of the card that Cana had planted out. However, Freed remains loyal to Laxus no matter what as he also has a huge poster of Laxus in his room. Freed also gets defensive if anyone every insults him or any girls get near him. 

The Truth of Gray's Stripping Habit: Gray has a stripping habit and he blames it on his master Ur, but that's not exactly true. As a teenager, Hiro had a stripping habit when he was a teenager but he out grew it! Gray on the other hand hasn't so much which is fine since his lean muscular figure is incredibly hot right? Ha ha! 

Yuka is related to Rock Lee: Personalities aside; Yuka of Lamia Scale could be in relation with Rock Lee from Naruto because of the bushy eyebrows. I mean, they have the most bushiest eyebrows that anyone has ever did seen! 

Frosch is Androgynous: Frosch's gender is unknown but it could be that he is androgynous. I mean, nobody knows if Fro' is a boy or a girl. Though he could be a guy though we can't be certain because Frosch always wears that pink frog suit. Unfortunately, Exceeds don't have any reproductive organs so we can't be certain if their female or male. 

The Reason Why Natsu is Shipped With Lucy: Why do people ship Natsu and Lucy together? They're just friends, right? True, but these platonic life partners are similar to Rave Master's couple Elie and Haru. Elie is a lot like Lucy while Haru is similar to Natsu, thus Haru and Elie fell in love while also they ended up happily ever after with one another. So people see Natsu and Lucy as the new Haru and Elie, so fans are left to believe that these two so called friends will end up as a couple in their own happy ending. Rave Master and Fairy Tail are made by Hiro Mashima so that's why fans do this shipping! 

Erza and Jellal are in Love: Erza and Jellal knew each other since they were kids, they cared about each other. Jellal became evil, he died, was resurrected but lost his memory however he gained it back and redeemed himself. However, it could be hinted that Erza and Jellal could be childhood sweethearts, even in the Seven Year Time Skip; they almost kissed (or possibly could have kissed) but Jellal--who pushed her away--couldn't and lied about having a finacee but in truth, he couldn't follow Erza into the 'light' so he thought it was better this way. Although, the two of them are in love with one another. Erza still thinks about Jellal, says his name softly as well as Jellal. Even the fact that Erza is nice to him (but she nice to her childhood friends too, funny enough), even after Jellal accidentally gropes her breasts by accident on the Love Slide and apologize. Normally if Fairy Tail did that, she'd given them a beating but instead Erza says simply a 'It's OK'. Weird huh? 

Jellal is Saul That Became Paul: The New Testament after Jesus descended to Heaven, there was once a wicked man by the name of Saul that prosecuted Christians however God came before Saul and blinded him, but Saul was healed by his blindness and was now a redeemed man with a new name, Paul. Funny enough, Jellal is similar to Paul's redemption almost. Jellal became evil and took down innocent people, killed one of his friends Simon, and then he died but he was resurrected and lost his memory. But once he regained his memories, Jellal became a different man and went on a redemption quest. Though Jellal never changed his name, he was broken out a jail and created a band of redeemers called Crime Sorcerie. 

Fairy Tail is a Lot Like The Wizard of Oz: Dorothy and Lucy share a commonality, Lucy never was struck with a tornado in her hometown, she came across Fairy Tail's wizard Natsu who was the real Salamander. But Lucy finds out after Natsu rescued her. Thus, Natsu and Lucy formed a team with Happy, Erza, and Gray. The four of them are similar to Dorothy and her friends--Toto, her dog, Scarecrow, The Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion. But Wendy and Carla come into the group so it could be different or still the same. And Mira is similar to Glinda, the Good Witch, while some female enemies that Lucy faces are almost like the Wicked Witch of the West tries to bring Lucy down, similar into the fashion of Dorothy's confrontation of the Witch. Even Lucy can be a badass at times like Dorothy can. 

Wicked's Defying Gravity is A Lot Like Hero's Resolve: You know the song Defying Gravity from the musical of Wicked? The musical version is a lot like Natsu's speech about dragon slaying during the attack of the dragons or Lucy standing up to her father about attacking Fairy Tail. The entire bravery of Fairy Tail is similar to the phrase 'Everyone deserves a chance to fly!' and the hand symbol is similar to the phrase 'So if you care to find me, look to the western sky!' It fitted perfectly in the Grand Magic Games and the battle against the dragons. Though the Fairy Tail isn't in the west on the map, it sounds cool nevertheless! 

Yukino and Minerva are the Madonna-Whore Complex, Opposite of Fairy Tail: No feminism in this area, fanservice and badassery is for everyone to enjoy but if you notice in the manga spin off of Fairy Tail's Sabertooth, you'll noticed that Yukino and Minerva don't need to have a skimpy outfit to show off or cause male characters to blush like crazy. That's because Yukino and Minerva are much more wholesome though they both have a scene in the hot springs and have some outfits that show off some skin sometimes but not too flashy or revealing, like in Fairy Tail. So it could be possible that Yukino and Minerva are going through some sort of Madonna-Whore Complex where they are sexy in fanservice, they don't want to appear too overly risque like the females in Fairy Tail. But there's against the girls in Fairy Tail as some of them don't wear all sexy outfits. 


Marina and the Diamonds' song "Forget" is a metaphor for Sabertooth's Redemption: Marina and the Diamonds' song "Forget" is similar to Sabertooth's redemption. Don't know what I'm talking about? Well, think about it for just a moment! The first part talks about how Sting thinks he wasn't strong enough to be reunited with Lector after losing to Fairy Tail. The next part is where Sting and Rogue realize their mistakes, they reconsider their new perspective on things. The second line is where it talks about Rogue's idoliziation for Gajeel and his disappointment when he learns that he joined Fairy Tail, how he thought about what is he fighting for and feels so lost and alone. How he couldn't learn the concept of family in his guild. The next few lines talk of how Sabertooth is different from Fairy Tail and how Jiemma's abuse towards them made them different but now he's no longer part of the guild, it's where Sabertooth continue in a new light and in a different way. The last lines of the redeemed guild is letting go of their former selves as they are ready to move onto a new light and learn to never be like that. To be more like Fairy Tail, where they treat their guild like friends and family. The chorus repeats many times, resembling the guild is going to be better people and learn from their mistakes. Maybe Marina hasn't heard of Fairy Tail but the song is a great message for everyone! Maybe Marina hasn't heard of Fairy Tail but the song is a great message for everyone!
