So far, all I can really say is that I still loathe Natsu as much as ever. He's one of my least favorite protagonists in all of anime and If he says once more that he's going to beat someone up for "making Lucy cry", I'm going to find a way into that dimension and I'm going to stab him in the throat. How can the author be so good at creating supporting characters, yet make the main character so cringe-worthy? I bet the editor had sometime to do with it. I remember reading once that the final product with manga is often like 50% from the editor, more or less depending on the prestige of the mangaka. I can imagine the editor being like, "no, make him a lot more cheezy." Fairy Tail also has some of the worst fights in anime, though I've heard they're better in the manga. Bad guy beats good guy to pulp, good guy keeps getting up because friendship, good guy levels up friendship power and beats bad guy with one attack. Add "counters by eating opponent's power" for the Natsu final boss fight and that's pretty much it. Honestly, the show would be a lot better if they killed Natsu off, at least for awhile. |
The exact same reasons why I dropped Fairy Tail ages ago ...
I could not stomache Natsu or the nakama power ups by that point ...
