Added a cool trivia piece I found on Gray and Rave Master.

Added DiffLines:

** Mashima noted in a twitter post that he considered making Gray the 10th Rave Master since his necklace shares the same design as the main Rave stone, which would have made ''Fairy Tail'' a StealthSequel to ''Manga/RaveMaster'', but discarded the idea early on.

* ExecutiveMeddling: This is rumored to be the reason for Lisanna's return. Apparently, Mashima had wanted to keep her dead, but his editor insisted on bringing her back. Of course, given the gross amount of misinformation that spreads throughout the fandom (see GodNeverSaidThat and WordOfDante below), and Mashima's penchant for {{Troll}}ing the readers (and by extension, the viewers) any, and every chance he gets, it's likely there's little truth to the rumor, if any at all.



* GodNeverSaidThat: A sizable portion of the fandom believes that Mashima stated that Natsu and Lucy would end up together, when he actually just said that in a hypothetical scenario where the two had a child, he would be called "Nashi"; incidentally the name is Japanese for "Non-existent" and a portmanteau of their names, meaning he wasn't serious with the name.

** Mashima is often misinterpreted as having planned to end the manga with the Phantom Lord arc, due to statements that he originally intended ''Fairy Tail'' to be about ten volumes long[[note]]Incidentally, the Phantom Lord arc ends in Volume ''9''.[[/note]], with a WarArc between two guilds occurring at a later point in the story, before its popularity influenced him to keep writing. While Mashima has admitted the part about the manga's increased length is true, the rumor leaves out the fact that he also started writing the Phantom Lord arc ''earlier'' than he anticipated, to say nothing of his repeated assertions that [[WritingByTheSeatOfYourPants he worked out the manga's entire plot on the fly from the very beginning]]. Suffice to say, he was already far from wrapping up the manga by the time he put the Phantom Lord arc to paper.



* WriteWhoYouKnow: Kinana's pre-TimeSkip, Wan Chanzi, Joey Fullborn and Chico=C=Hammitt designs is based off of Mashima's assistants.
* WritingByTheSeatOfYourPants: Mashima admitted he never really expected Fairy Tail to last as long as it did and was mostly just envisioned as a series of adventures then a ongoing epic. As such most of the arcs more questionable outcomes are due to him coming up with things right on the spot to meet deadlines. This includes the finale since he really didn't have a clear end goal for the series. There was a predictable and unpleasant backdraft that followed.
