It started like what could turn into a fun mix between One Piece and Full Metal. In which the character is already more or less a small legend and part of a wide and powerful organization.

Then it simply failed to pick up. Mist gun was wasted, Phantom lord was too weak. You can say it terminally went to shit in edolas but the tower arc was also pretty bad.
Now its just a fast, formulaic campy pace with villain of the week, banal plot, bland designs, rushed art and no tension

Formulaic shonen that went too deep into Naruto/Bleach type asspulls but with less angst and edge.

Also Erza is the embodiment of the wish horny shonen fanboys wanting a strong female character. Too bad it was on a monkey's paw/Norm the Genie.

Erza is also the most interesting character, but she's a mary sue to the max. She can have all of her senses taken away from her and have injuries that should prevent her from moving, but she can still fight at maximum power just because fuck you.

Mashima is a big picture kind of guy when it comes to making up a plot and also hes not very good with creating suspense. As a result FT is too long winded and convoluted to follow.

I didn't realize how much I'd have preferred this

Fairy Tail had some promise. Main character is one of the hottest semen demons to have ever come out and had some funny jokes. Then Mashima chose to focus instead on the most generic shonen protag ever and the asspull-y action and just became a mediocre shonen

Mashima just wings the writing. Rave and FT Zero show he's capable of better if he tries, but I guess he's just taking it easy.

I'll say this much, he eventually managed to ruin Erza in her own right completely independently of Gerard. That takes a special kind of fuckup. Still mai waifu though

>>141071563
>FT is too long winded and convoluted to follow
You may be the first person I've ever heard say this. The writing's saving grace is how little it drags. Early arcs aside, the only two times I ever felt bored were the start of Edoras, and Avatar.

They stopped going on quests.
The main group became too large with Wendy.
Not enough side character development.

The best part is probably the team ups against a single boss enemy. Need more combination attacks and Unison Raids.

Then again that entire arc sucked dick. Having a tournament arc when you can't write a decent fight to save your life is a terrible idea.
>>
How did it get so popular in the first place? The big 3 all had at least one really solid arc to hook fans in the first place (Chuunin exams/Soul Society/Alabasta). But even the best Fairy Tail arc was just on par with stuff like Naruto's Rescue Gaara arc.

Lucy is honestly the only one of the original four I tolerate. Gray is a tremendous faggot for not fucking Juvia non-stop. Natsu is both the most generic and unlikable shonen protagonist I've seen in a long time. Erza's god tier fanservice doesn't prevent her from embodying the worst things of FT

Lucy though has even better fanservice, actually improves and learns, is a nice person but not a doormat, and could at this point create her own harem of Virgo, Aries, Flare and Brandish.
