This is my first review here.So be prepared for a mess of a review.
Inspired by my friends,lured in by the hype,fooled by its huge popularity and high ratings in MAL,I entered the amazing world of Fairy Tail.MAL ratings are usually right,so I genuinely believed this was going to be a memorable show.But alas!I was hugely mistaken.I could never predict the trainwreck I was heading towards.
This show started off very promisingly.The first few episodes indicated that this was going to be an awesome adventure show.It had all the ingredients for the making of a great show.All it needed was good execution.And this is where it
...
failed miserably.Bland comedy,pedestrian fights,needless fanservice and most importantly,excessive use of deus ex machina,which is an unexpected power or event saving a seemingly hopeless situation since the writer cant come up with a believable solution,all this things add up to the clusterfuck of a show that is Fairy Tail.
I am no stranger to battle shounens.Infact,my favourite anime is a battle shounen.This is one of the reasons why I decided to stick with this anime.But as the story progressed.the show only went to one direction,downwards.The quality of the show dropped harder than Chelsea's league standing last season.I thought I was not in the right frame of mind for this show.So I took a short break and put it on my on-hold list.But alas!It turns out it was a mistake to put it on hold, I should have put it where it belonged - in dropped..
When I again picked it up,the show didnt improve a bit.I was around 70 episodes by then.The only thing that kept me going for so long was it's ridiculously high MAL rating.I was like a pray wrapped by an anaconda,slowly suffocating to death.Then I finally decided to commit a Taboo.I decided to drop this show for good.This show remains the only show in my dropped list upto this very day.
And the reason I gave it a 2 and not 1 is because it taught me one valuable lesson.No,it didn't teach me to solve everything by the power of nakama Bullshit.This show taught me not to be deceived by the huge popularity and high rating of a show.And thus,I am drawing a conclusion to my rant.
