History Ymmv / FairyTail

* FanPreferredCouple: Cobra and Cubelious, BetterThanItSounds.

* NightmareFuel: [[spoiler: Exteria in general and Minister of State Nadei in particular]] are really, skin-crawlingly creepy.

* CompleteMonster: Jose, Sol , Zero, Zancrow and Bluenote; Karin counts for what she does to Aries.

*** Encountered one of the [[{{Badass}} most badass furries]] ever? Tell him you are going to make him [[spoiler:your cat]].

*** Faced with a AntiMagic SphereOfPower? Use your magic outside to propell yourself and punch the guy in face
*** How to stop a [[{{Lunacy}} powerful moon beam]] from enter a pyramid break the pillars on one side and tilt it.
*** Dealing with an enemy who can [[{{Telepathy}} read your mind]] STOP THINKING.

* TearJerker: Makarov [[spoiler:excommunicating Laxus]]
** The end of the Oración Seis arc. [[spoiler:''Twice''.]]
*** [[spoiler:Chapter 164: A guild for a single person. The entire guild Cait Shelter was just an illusion created by the leader, a spirit, so Wendy wouldn't have to be alone. As Nirvana now is destroyed, the leader has fulfilled his purpose and the entire guild starts to disappear in front of Wendy's eyes. As the leader vanishes he declares that Wendy now has real friends and doesn't need illusory companions. It's a very emotional and tear-jerking chapter.]]
** Episode 24 of the anime shows us exactly what happened when [[spoiler:Lisanna supossedly died.]] It is... surprisingly devastating and brutal.
** Chapter 100 [[spoiler:Erza's funeral. Yeah it was fake, but it was still damn depressing.]]
** Chapter 186 [[spoiler:The [[FamilyUnfriendlyViolence Exceed's stoning]] of Wendy and Charle. It's historically a form of ''capital punishment''.]]
** [[spoiler: Simon's death]], especially or at least in the anime, due to the effect of sad music and voice acting making that much more of an impact.

** And let's not forget [[spoiler:Mavis, Fairy Tail first headmaster]], who manages to be [[BadassAdorable kind, cute, mysterious and hilarious]] at the same time, and [[LittleMissBadass badass]] enough to master and cast one of the most powerful protection spell in the FT universe [[spoiler:''from beyond the grave'', [[SphereOfPower Fairy Sphere]]]]. And let's not forget that created and can probably cast [[spoiler: [[LightEmUp Fairy Glitter]] and Fairy Law]].

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Naturally, there's quite some. Notably, [[SocialDarwinist Laxus]] and [[HandicappedBadass Gildartz]] seem quite popular among the western fandom, and they're joined by [[BloodKnight Azuma]], the single most {{badass}} member of Grimoire Heart.

** And now there's a new one: [[spoiler: The {{Time Skip}} is either the greatest plot twist Mashima has ever planned, or the most anticlimactic and blatant ''Manga/OncePiece''/Manga/''{{Naruto}}''/Manga/''{{Bleach}}'' ripoff ever. Some were relieved over the fact that none of the characters had aged up, while some were clamoring for new character designs.]]

* NightmareFuel: Am... am I the only one who finds [[spoiler: Exteria in general and Minister of State Nadei in particular]] to be really, skin-crawlingly creepy?
** [[ParanoiaFuel No, you're not.]]

** Am I the only one [[AdultFear really freaked out]] by [[spoiler:Wendy]] hanging out with a guy who was thinking about pushing her off a cliff? Just... the DissonantSerenity in his face. *shudders*

*** YourMileageMayVary. Most of the twists he pulls usually have plenty of {{Foreshadowing}}.
*** Indeed. A lot of stuff gets hinted at LONG in advance.
*** Except he actaully states quite often that there are a good number of parts where he's winging it. And believe me, you only need to come up with one or two things in advance an make up the rest as you go to keep people from noticing that you don't have a solid plan. Just decide a few major things (Like the dragons and Jellal/Siegrain) and a few small ones (Erza's eye and Gemini) and suddenly it looks like you know what your doing, until you screw up the number of legs Nirvana has.
**** But lots of writers change small facts like that, or just simply make mistakes. Maybe he intended on Ren and Eve being able to destroy a leg at the end of the arc as well, but decided halfway through it would be better if they were largely out of the action. Besides, in a later volume, Mirajane [[AllThereInTheManual explains in the volume's Q & A]] that Nirvana got tired of carrying around eight legs and simply dropped two. A bit of a WildcardExcuse, but still. He at least noticed.

* LesYay - Lucy - She probably takes the motherload of LesYay in Fairy Tail, courtesy of fan {{flanderization}}:
** Lucy x Mirajane - Mira was a big reason for [[FanGirl Lucy]] wanting to join Fairy Tail in the first place. And it was only the beginning.
** Lucy x Erza - Starts [[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/fairy_tail/v03/c014/14.html at their first mission]]. And it continues in Episode 31.

** Lucy x Levy - The ''main'' source of LesYay. Specially in the anime where they are ''very'' touchy-feely.

** Lucy x Juvia - Tower of Paradise arc. Lucy and Juvia were able to use the powerful spell Unison Raid, which requires the partner's hearts to be in perfect synch, on their first try. Jellal noted that some couples could work together for years and never be able to do it.
** Lucy x Aquarius - In S&M, Lucy would be the slave.
** Lucy x Virgo - In S&M, Lucy would be the mistress. And Virgo changes Lucy's clothes for her, once while Lucy was asleep.
** Lucy x Gemini cloning Lucy - [[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/fairy_tail/v17/c143/9.html here.]]
** Lucy x Every last girl in Fairy Tail? - [[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/fairy_tail/v20/c161.5/25.html Lucy is the one peeping.]]
** Lucy x Old matron Hilda - [[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/fairy_tail/v20/c161.5/8.html ...Yuuuup...]]
** Lucy x Edolas version of Lucy -...[[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/fairy_tail/v21/c173/2.html What?]] [[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/fairy_tail/v21/c173/3.html Wasn't it obvious?]]
** Lucy x Coco - [[http://mangastream.com/read/fairy_tail/83663107/17 And now this]].
** Lucy x Cana - And the end result: Lucy is so inured to all the LesYay, [[http://www.ourmanga.com/Fairy_Tail/201/1491160_e she freely steps into a one-person bathtub with Cana.]] [[http://www.mangareader.net/fairy-tail/225/3 It gets more blatant later.]]
