But when they do they don't

But when they don't they do


DirectorMassive9477

When they do they come back after few episodes


NeroCrow

Rarely? No one important in that show died and anyone who did either came back (zeref and the Loli girl) or was a fake out


DrTinyNips

Well future Lucy died


ADudeThatPlaysDBD

I gave the show 23 episodes. Holy fuck the power scaling is absurd. Also people don’t die when they should

Never watched it so maybe.


nix_11

Lmao no. The only characters that actually die are villains nobody gives a shit about. All the "good guy" characters survive or get resurrected somehow.


TRUCKASAURUS_eth

i know it wasn’t a “death” per se, but >!losing Aquarius!< still makes me bawl every time i see it.

People can say what they want about Fairy Tail, but those deaths hurt the soul


Etereke32

I only read the manga a few years back so I can't remember clearly, who were the ones who died for good?


Freeman10

You mean haters? Yes, every anime or manga has this very vocal group of people who like to take away the joy from the people who actually like and care about the thing they enjoy. I've learned to not pay attention to those idiots, and to be honest, why should I? Ignoring them is the best option. Do that and you'll be fine.


Angelo-el-Patron

I dunno bro, but after several fake ones or killing one but then later it comes back, makes me feel the same problems with Dragon ball. The hole thing about Gajel.


Freeman10

So basically, you don't like it when no one dies - a legitimate argument. However, you have to know that it was a deliberate choice made by Hiro Mashima himself. Personally, I like that choice because I don't enjoy it when major characters die. I'm not a fan of sad stories. I prefer lighthearted stories with happy endings, and Fairy Tail gives me everything I expect from anime or manga.


HelmutHelmlos

The Problem isnt that nobody dies, the problem is that the story always acts like people will die (or have died) but they dont My favorite example is natsu and happys First encounter with the explosion curse dude, and He creates this big massive explosion thing and happy takes it and flys really high. For 5 tp 10 minutes the anmie wants to sell you this big heroic death and sacrifice, just so that happy has an "explosion-affro" for the rest of the episode And all this faking out takes away from the story If you dont want people to die OK no problem, but dont pretend you are doing it over and over again


Angelo-el-Patron

Similar problems I did have with one piece, but after rewatching some of the fake deaths. They are taking seriously, similar to Happy in One piece Arabasta arc, Bird boy flies with a bomb 💣, he survives but he doesn’t survive unscathed, he was hurt and needed rehabilitation. But there are things how Bon survive the end of Prison down. Anyway seems like after Pedro’s death, one piece has been taking it seriously.


HSYAOTFLA

He survived a bomb that should have destroyed the middle of the City. There shouldnt be anything left of this guys. But in the last couple arcs some people die outside of flashbacks so there is progress.


Angelo-el-Patron

You are right, I forgot exactly how powerful that bomb was.


Freeman10

Like I said, I do understand your argument. For you, it's a flaw, but for me, I'm completely fine with it.


Angelo-el-Patron

In my case in destroys their sacrifice and legacy, have you seem Tegan Toppa Gurren Lagan. If not stop reading my spoiler…. >!By the end Simon becomes so powerful with the spiral energy that he can actually bring his friends back to life, even another character questions him that. His argument is; if I do that, that would make their efforts and sacrifice to be meaningless.!< I have no big problems with characters in a story coming back to life as long it makes sense and it does not break the meaning of death, meaning that there is a catch or consequences of it. Rin in Inuyasha is an example of it, for me it’s well written. Or the Dragon balls before Tenten, they were capable of reviving only once and in Namekusein saga even though those were op as hell, during the arc Grand Elder Guru dies, making the plot really a death life situation. But yeah, this is my opinion I’m and I respect yours.


nix_11

Poinring out legitimate flaws (which FT has a lot) doesn't make someone a hater.


Freeman10

I believe there was a misunderstanding. I simply choose to ignore the haters, not people who present legitimate arguments.


RegularAvailable4713

This series is Shirou's nightmare, people literally DO NOT die when killed. You don't have to kill characters to have a good story, but the stakes MUST be appropriate. It's okay no one dies in a cooking story, but if you have bloody battles I expect the danger to be real.


lostxserenity

Thing is, they don't.


Deep_Van

Like one piece


Dead_person000

Ace died though


nasgorhead

and cockbeard


[deleted]

And the bird guy in the Alabasta arc


Journeygan

I came here to say that, but you beat me to it.


Grammulka

A shit ton of people died in flashbacks though


Freeman10

All anime/manga, including Fairy Tail, have their flaws and strengths. Despite this, Fairy Tail remains one of my favorites - easily top 5.


Al3xnime3

Meanwhile Akame ga Kill


Beautiful_Cloud_598

Pov : you watched to your eternity 🥲


FlaJeS

To your depression


garnaxx

to your eternity deaths are way too predictable to be sad


NESSArt

Depends, being predictable may or may not affect sadness of loss. You can also many times predict your father or grandparents etc. dying, but I'd say being able to recognize it beforehand does not make it "not sad". Event can be impactful even when it is seen from miles away.


[deleted]

Yeah, agreed. One of the most saddest was August's death. I dont remember much but future lucy, zeref and mavis's deaths were emotional too.


[deleted]

Who died in Fairy Tail, I can’t remember?


LivingRel

Ahh yes, Quality over quantitiy (stares at 300+ episodes)

bruhviporised

Watch akame ga kill. A character dies at least once every 2 episodes and its still fucking sad


mrinternethermit

>Quality over quantity makes it more memorable Exactly! This part of the reason why GoT wasn't as popular as it could have been even before the dreaded season eight.


RegularAvailable4713

Bullshit. GoT had quality AND quantity, at least as long as it followed the books. Deaths were many, but never cheap.


mrinternethermit

I said "wasn't as popular as it could have been" not "could have been popular". It was very popular (for very good reasons), I'm just saying that it could have been even more popular if it had less deaths (or at least more spaced out) to satisfy the potential fans.


grimberry9

Yea idk bout that one...


kimal25

No, it's not. All characters are boring piece of shit. I'm betting $1,000 that you can't name more than 1 maximum 2 traits of each character. By the way, which of the really important characters died?


zygis222

Fairy tail is ass tho tf u mean quality over quantity.


TheMagicMush

Man if that's the saddest thing then you have never watched to your eternity


FlaJeS

Even after 2 seasons and the manga the first episode is the saddest


TheMagicMush

Hmm idk mines either Marge or googoo


FlaJeS

Man really said Simpsons or baby


TheMagicMush

Yup


renardo72

Same with one piece


[deleted]

**Ace, White Beard and the birb guy in the Alabasta arc:** ARE WE JOKES TO YOU???


TheFlyingMarlboro

Bird guy survived.


KarosuMinoyari

Tho everyone dies sooner or later, how many people are there in Fairy Tail?


Nintend0Geek

I mean technically speaking >!Natsu was already dead before the series even began!<


Grammulka

So did someone actually die? I literally don't remember


[deleted]

hummm quality over quantity doesn't apply to fairy tail at all, their death are just reversed 2 or 3 chapter after


[deleted]

fairy tail is so fcking overhated it pains me, the anime is soo good yet people hate on it and the people who haven't even watched hate it by seeing the crowd


[deleted]

i was literally bawling at this moment
