Fairy Tail, Vol. 01 by Hiro Mashima
5.0
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5
Fairy Tail is a very fun manga to read. If you are looking for a compelling story with a lighthearted exterior. If you are looking for something that will lift your spirits at times, but has a lot of heart and soul, I recommend this series as a whole. I understand that anime is not for everyone, but I think this story can connect to a lot of people. I understand that there is a flying and talking cat in this book, but don’t let that stop you from seeing some of the darker sides of this tale even within the first couple of volumes.
Overall this story follows Lucy who is trying to get into the Fairy Tale guild which is a collection of wizards that are almost infamous, but they are pretty powerful wizards. Lucy also is a celestial wizard in which she is able to summon different spirits in order to fight and participate in magic. She runs into Happy and Natsu by accident while they are trying to find the dragon that raised Natsu. Lucy gets captured by a slave ship, assists Natsu who is a fire wizard to defeat the bad guys and then Lucy is swept into the Fairy Tale guild!
Like most manga, this is a very fast paced story, and there is a lot that happens within one volume. With the omnibus you are able to really see the different sides fo Fairy Tail to see if it something that you enjoy. I personally enjoy that there are some zany parts along side the serious ones, and I just generally enjoy this story as a whole.
The characters are complex, and much more then their fun exterior, and everyone has a time to shine in different places. If you are looking for something that will lift your spirits and don’t mind going with a flow of the story, I highly recommend this!
