This is a great manga series to be adapted. I have been reading the manga for quite some time and it has a nice storyline. However, there are certain similarities between Fairy Tail and One Piece, especially the personalities of the two protagonist, Natsu Dragneel and Luffy. But then again, Natsu seems to be more intelligent in during fights ^^
I’ve never heard of this, but the smiling, brown-haired dude on the right of the first picture looks exactly like Luffy.
sigh….I’ll most likely watch this when it comes out.
oh great, another anime full of downs syndrome characters, one piece was bad enough
I only read it because Erza is in it and she’s really awesome. Might consider watching it.
cheh stop using other anime as reference maybe that can help if ur gonna watch the anime then just enjoy it as it is im eagerly waiting for the anime >D

I think when they compare Luffy with Natsu It’s because Natsu is really care free and all Happy-go-lucky outside of fights. I’ve never watched one piece but have seen parts of episodes between flipping through channels, but Fairy Tail is really awesome and don’t judge it until you’ve seen part of it. I hope the anime follows the manga closely! If it does i can’t wait to watch Natsu and Erza fight Gernard(I think I spelt it right it’s been awhile… of coarse if I wasn’t falling behind I’d remember scince He’s bakk… o well. I’ll stop ranting here. Bye!
As a big fan of Fairy Tail since it was first serialized, I am very exited to be able to watch an anime adaptation. Hopefully others won’t compare it too muh to other anime for similarities, because it is a great series in itself. <3 Erza

i wil wan to watch this anime{:
i read th manga and fell head over heels over natsu <3
his cuteness is jus lyk luffy frm one piece but so much smarter.

p.s. This Anime is gonna epic…Hands Down. Go Fairy Tail!!!!
When I first started reading Fairy Tail, I did think that it was slightly similar to One Piece if only for the reference to ‘nakama.’ But if you actually read the manga, you will definitely be able to tell the difference. Fairy Tail is awesome in its own right as is One Piece. They are two entirely different authors and series. If anything, the drawing style of Fairy Tail reminded me more of Rave, for obvious reasons. I cannot wait for this anime to come out. I wanna see the fights and insane antics in live action. ^-^
One of the anime I’m looking forward to!!! =)
