FAIRY TAIL


Fairy Tail is set in Earth-land (アースランド Āsu Rando), a fictional world populated by wizards[2] that coalesce into guilds to apply their magical abilities for paid job requests. Novice wizard Lucy Heartfilia runs away from home to join Fairy Tail, a guild famous for its members' overly destructive antics. She is invited into the guild by Natsu Dragneel, a dragon slayer (滅竜魔導士ドラゴンスレイヤー doragon sureiyā) wizard who travels the kingdom of Fiore (フィオーレ王国 Fiōre Ōkoku) in search of his missing foster father, the dragon Igneel. Lucy forms a team with Natsu and his cat-like companion Happy, later joined by ice wizard Gray Fullbuster and armored wizard Erza Scarlet. The five embark on numerous guild missions, which include subjugating criminals, illegal dark guilds, and ancient Etherious (エーテリアス Ēteriasu) demons created by the dark wizard Zeref.
After several adventures, a group of Fairy Tail wizards, including Natsu's team, encounter the immortal Zeref living in isolation on the guild's sacred ground of Sirius Island[4](天狼島 Tenrō-jima). A battle over Zeref ensues between Fairy Tail and the dark guild Grimoire Heart, which attracts the attention of the evil black dragon Acnologia. The Fairy Tail wizards survive Acnologia's assault when the spirit of their guild's founder, Mavis Vermillion, casts the defensive Fairy Sphere (妖精の球フェアリースフィア Fearī Sufia) spell that places them into seven years of suspended animation. During this time, a conflicted Zeref leaves the island to ruminate over his next course of action.
Shortly after the missing wizards return, Fairy Tail participates in the Grand Magic Games (大魔闘演武 Daimatōenbu), a tournament held to determine the strongest guild in Fiore. In doing so, they prevent an unwitting government conspiracy to ravage the kingdom with dragons brought from the past through Eclipse, Zeref's time travel gate. Zeref, observing these events, decides to eradicate humanity for their continuing conflicts. Later, Fairy Tail wages war against Tartaros, a dark guild of Etherious that aim to unseal a book believed to contain E.N.D., Zeref's ultimate demon. Acnologia returns to annihilate both guilds, but is stopped when Igneel emerges to battle him, revealed to have sealed himself within Natsu. However, Acnologia kills Igneel, and Natsu vows to avenge him.
One year later, Natsu returns from a training journey to discover that Fairy Tail's master, Makarov Dreyar, has been staving off an invasion by the Alvarez Empire, Zeref's military nation. Zeref and his forces assault Fiore, intending to acquire Mavis' physical body preserved beneath Fairy Tail's guildhall, which houses a wellspring of infinite magic power known as Fairy Heart (妖精の心臓フェアリーハート Fearī Hāto). During the battle, Natsu learns of his origins as Zeref's younger brother, as well as the true incarnation of E.N.D.—short for "Etherious Natsu Dragneel"—whom the death-seeking Zeref turned into a demon with the power to kill him. When Natsu fails to do so in their showdown, Zeref extracts Fairy Heart from Mavis to relocate himself to a new timeline where he may prevent the atrocities he and Acnologia have caused, destroying the present timeline in the process. Natsu incapacitates Zeref, and Lucy rewrites the book of E.N.D. to make Natsu fully human. Mavis, who is Zeref's estranged lover, is then able to lift their shared immortality by reconciling her love for him, allowing both to die peacefully.
Meanwhile, Fairy Tail and their allies attempt to permanently imprison Acnologia within a spacetime rift created by the use of Eclipse. The rift's properties instead empower Acnologia, who escapes to destroy Earth-land while his disembodied soul traps all of the present dragon slayers in the rift to maintain his new, immeasurable power. Using the accumulative magic of the other dragon slayers, Natsu destroys Acnologia after Lucy and the other wizards immobilize the dragon's body within Fairy Sphere, freeing the dragon slayers from captivity. In the following year, Lucy publishes an award-winning novel based on her experiences at the guild. The award ceremony is attended by two strangers resembling Mavis and Zeref, who fall in love. Afterwards, Natsu and Lucy depart with their friends on a century-old guild mission,[5] continuing their ongoing adventures together.
