And this is why Fairy Tail hits the emotions so hard. People hate on it, but I think it's unwarranted. Yeah "pOwEr Of FriEnDsHiP' is usually annoying, but I love how it handles it. This is a family, and being able to relate to that is amazing. I will always have a special place for this anime in my heart
Nah it is like heartwarming don’t get me wrong, but he was also kind of sloppy ab implementing it ngl 😭. The problem isn’t the friendship boosts, but how inconsistent they are. Natsu gets soooo much stronger from it against zeref and acknolgia, but there’s other crucial moments where he COULD get a boost and it really needs one, but he doesn’t. You have him being well under base zeref, then one shotting him, yet when he fought the garou knight, fully rested, he struggled with everyone of them, to the point he couldn’t break free of one of their vines even when they where about to kill Wendy and mirra had to save Wendy instead. This same vine knight gets one shotted by Wendy later in the fight after taking no previous damage from her lmao, this knight natsu couldn’t overcome to save his friends life,IS ONE SHOTTED BY BASE WENDY 😭. It’s not that it’s bs, because it’s explained to be a part of the power system, it’s that it’s inconsistent af 😭
@drhashtagyolo I get that sentiment, but it's not really an anime that is heavily reliant on being consistent, everything is meant to further the agenda of the story or emotional impact, for instance, that Wendy one with Natsu struggling, was to focus on her and show her growth, not Natsu. It's serious, but also not serious like others. It's enjoyable without being super serious on what is "consistent". Yeah yeah "plot armour" and "sake of the plot" but that's just how it's structured haha. But the hate you see people give it is always about the "friendship plot armour, and very little about the inconsistency, that was my main point
@@申月営無営月無営有申 if you mean post-time skip doesn't hit the feels, I don't see how, if anything, it kept hitting and hit harder for alot of plotlines that were finally expanded on, atleast for me. The time skip just improved for me haha
You are not alone Mashima. I will never forget or stop appreciating you. People who watch fairy tail feel your emotions through your characters. I hope this small comment finds you and that it can help you to not feel alone. Love from America ❤.
4:27 Man dude sounds like a stand up fella. I’m not a huge fan of fairy tail but I have watched it and I loved the game on the ps4(can’t wait for the sequel later this year) but I respect a guy willing to be that honest. Also that nice to the dub cast. And while I think it’s a bit cheesy what the fans at the event did, offering to be his friends I can’t help but salute them for the gesture it’s a nice if silly thing to do.
I remember watching you all the way back in 2014 ish? I remember you wearing the Tobi Mask and I was taken back at first. I saw what you could offer the world been a life long fan since i am not really going to be the one you always see talking up a storm in the Comments ( I have a form of dyslexia) so my comments take so much longer to type. but I'll always be watching. Fornever. P.S Hiro Mashima got me reading Manga and trying to better my Reading ever since Rave master. he is one of the GOATs
I use to be single lost my entire family, they passed on and I struggled went to the military and lost my new family in combat but now I have a wife and a beautiful daughter that keeps me going and I’m moving forward and never giving up
Fairy tail will always be dear to me definitely one of my favorites it’s crazy how good he was at making such a cast of friends that felt like you’re friends even though he was so lonely
People can have opinions. Fairy tail is known for being very generic and cliche with average writing and that’s okay. Mashima is still a beast for output and art style alone
No, it's just that most people have certain standards. And fairy tail doesn't really pass most common standards of a good, well structured story. You can still like things that are garbage. Just admit that it's not the best story and move on. People need to stop fixating on always trying to see the series that THEY like being good, despite the many flaws it has. Fairy tail has a lot of flaws, but as long as you can recognize these flaws and still enjoy it, then there's no problem. Like, what you're doing rn is annoying. Being emotional gives you no right to make objective statement about how people can't understand "concepts" very elitist of you.
@asmodeusguys4472 well ur certainly entitled to your own opinion. FAIRYTAIL did well enough to get a sequel and I know tons of fans all over who love fairytail.
Honestly I love fairy tail, but it’s got a good share of flaws. I appreciate it more knowing this, but natsu and erza get corny sometimes constantly yelling about friendship in the heat of battle, when you have characters like luffy on the same wavelength that show instead of tell (more so at least). Acknolgia was disappointing both as a final fight and character. It’s never explained why he just chilled and did nothing for 400 years, even zeref is like bro that’s weird af that doesn’t make any sense, and it’s just never explained 😭. Characters don’t use more powerful forms they have access to at crucial moments. The friendship boosts are handed out veryyy inconstantly and it really comes down to plot convenience. Natsu and Erza have been shown to become many times stronger from it, yet natsu couldn’t even save Wendy’s life when the vine garou knight restrained him and was about to kill Wendy, and Mira had to instead. A garou knight that a base Wendy goes onto one shot later without dealing any previous damage to her lmao, and natsu couldn’t use the power of friendship to save her life? 😭 after he beat two dragon force users in base with no friendship boost? 😭 ya it’s just veryyyyy inconsistent with the friendship boosts and he only uses it to his convenience
For me, I got into anime and manga because I have some pretty big health issues and out of boredom and loneliness I was enamored by anime and the stories like Hajimeno Ippo, Fairy Tail, and can’t forget My Hero Academia.
My opinion of Fairy Tail has definitely softened over the years. I've come to realize that, for all it's flaws, I had more good times with it than bad.
Honestly, i relate to Hiro mashima here. I never had any actual friends growing too. But at least now, hiro mashima, not just in Jump magazine, but all over the world.
Fairy Tail is still one of my top 10 anime; it just has very good emotions, and I find myself caring about all the characters in the series, including minor characters like Marco or Max.
Man i grew up on rave masters if i recall the lil thing that had the drill for a nose was name plue and rave masters used to come on the sci-fi channel cause the sci-fi channel for w/e reason used to have some anime idk if anybody remembers zatch bell, battle bdaman and Zoids? The bdaman was like beyblade but they had these toy robots that shoot out marbles
With all its flaws (still like fairy tail don’t get me wrong), this def made me appreciate the series more, even if the friendship stuff is corny at times
Poor guy didn't have any friends to stop him from writing himself into a hole. He must've found some friends after Fairy Tail, because his work has improved a lot since Fairy Tail 😅
I respect that
This really makes the whole power of friendship thing hit harder.
It does
It never hit in the first place. It's more accurate to say it's understandable now.

Every time I see a new video, I'm excited!

Hiro Mashima is one of the hardest working manga authors out

I've watched fairytail all the way through like 3 times

When I watch Fairy Tail I see a family.
Fairytail is not as bad as people say it is. I like it. It's fun to watch.
I like fairy tail. I have the blu ray and I read the manga both at home and at work.
I wasn’t a fan of the last arc of Fairy Tail before Thousand Years Quest, but I still love the series and characters.
For me, I got into anime and manga because I have some pretty big health issues and out of boredom and loneliness I was enamored by anime and the stories like Hajimeno Ippo, Fairy Tail, and can’t forget My Hero Academia.

Hiro mashima is one of my fav mangaka beside oda of course love his work sad to here this but i understand. Thank you for the video😃
I often wonder why so much shonen focus on friendship as a theme besides the demographic. Maybe these authors were Abit friendless themselves.
Makes sense, God Bless them
Poor guy didn't have any friends to stop him from writing himself into a hole. He must've found some friends after Fairy Tail, because his work has improved a lot since Fairy Tail 😅
Sheesh
