Fairy tail was one of my top 5 anime until the final season rolled up. The reason for this is they setup the anime very very well. At every stage before the final season they built hype well and carried it well through each arc. But in the final season they threw out all the seriousness out the window. Zeref was feared, he was a man around whom animals couldn't even live if they come into his vicinity. But they didn't utilise the fear of Zeref well in the anime. And the same can be said for Acnologia. The man who killed Igneel just got ... defeated by the cringe power of friendship. The end was very rushed and for this reason the final season was horrible to watch. But besides these 2 characters, the rest of the season was pretty good but we all know that if the final antagonist is boring as hell, it really reduces the appeal of the anime. It makes you go "so what was all this for". I miss the old Fairy Tail.

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood does not live upto its hype. It does not live upto the #1 anime status on MAL. While the story, concept of power and the characters are unique the overall enjoyment in the show is low. Besides a few scenes that hype you up and make you go "woah" the main attraction of this anime is the type of relations that are formed and broken throughout the 64 episodes, which isn't always interesting to watch. That being said I would praise FMAB and the team behind it for the effort on this anime because for its time, it was wellmade. But in ... this current generation of anime, it certainly isn't one that would strike you as a banger. It still is an anime every avid anime watcher must watch at some point in their life because while it may not be the most enjoyable anime, it is still pretty unique in many aspects.

The concept is pretty decent but the major problem with this anime is they make a long boring string of episodes and then the final 10 episodes or so of the season are absolute bangers and they setup very well for the next season but then go ahead and make half of the next season disappointing and this cycle repeats. Overall it is interesting, has good visuals and characters with bad pacing. Also so that the fire fore fans don't get pissed i must mention that the second half of both season 1 and season 2 were epic, well-hyped up!
