Fairy Tail is a series that has been turned into anime (Japanese animation) based off of the manga (Japanese comic) originally, just as any animes would normally start. And the first episode/chapter of the series gives a real eye opener to what the main group of the guild known as Fairy Tail are like. To be more specific, how one of the main characters actually comes across to joining a guild called Fairy Tail and exactly what the guild is all about while giving the general idea of what the guild is all about.

Fairy Tail is one of the biggest hit series currently going, and with even a big audience within the otaku community. Ranging from action to comedy, it’s no wonder, really, to why there are so many males that actually loves this series. But more so than just guys when that’s the demographic that the writer first intended this series to be targeted for, girls as well. There are so many characters, and they are all very well developed at that. To even all the anime and comic convention goers, there are a lot of people that actually even dress up as characters from this series. To say the least, the sad part is that it’s only the major characters that gets noticed greatly whereas the minor characters, such as Levy McGarden and Gajeel Redfox, are rarely portrayed.

In the first episode/chapter of this series alone, it goes into so much depth as it is to exactly what the two top main characters, Lucy Heartfilia and Natsu Dragneel, are like. Having to get the basic understanding to at least two types of mages and the possibilities of all the magic that can be used shown, it’s interesting enough to see where the story will go based off of even just two characters – Especially when taking it into considerations that there is a whole set of guild and its members to actually explore and in order to find out exactly who Salamander is since in the first episode of the series, it had only revealed an imposter.

To go even further, because it is action and a lot of fighting is involved, it’s no wonder to exactly why the male population would actually watch it. So why is it so popular with the female population? Well, that’s as simple as one-two-three: The series has two characters, one being Lucy and the other being Erza Scarlet (who appears a little later on in the series), that are main female roles and the main protagonists of the story along the side of Natsu and Gray Fullbuster (who also gets introduced later on in the series with Erza). And the extremely minor characters such as Aquarius and Levy McGarden (a character that shows up once every 50 or so chapters in the manga and just as rarely even in the animated series) that also draws the female population into the series. What’s more? Shippings (pairings)! Shippings everywhere! There are so many possible character shippings that just about anyone can get into!

This is such a big hit that it has even gotten to the point where there are a handful of people role playing (RPing) just about every character possible on not just Facebook, but on social media sites such as Tumblr and Twitter as well!
