[shiiro-arts]

Thank you so much for replying to my previous ask in such detail (I loved it and really, really appreciate your efforts 🙏)

I just started rewatching the anime and I saw the focus they kept on Lisanna hence my doubt. From Erza I felt it was more of a sibling type dynamic (that Erza sees Natsu and Gray more as her younger brothers) but they really pushed the Lisanna narrative in the beginning. And given the way he reacted differently to Lucy and Lisanna like becoming flustered with Lisanna I wondered.

Please do talk about the killing himself part too.

I love reading your analysis!! Thank you so much for your hard work ❣️ (Feel free to push in NaLu scenes that show it their bond more obviously)

Hi!! I'm happy you liked it, I'm going to try and talk about Natsu and Lisanna a little bit more and then I'll start with the whole killing himself thing. (following this post)

I think the reason they focused on Natsu and Lisanna at the beginning is because a lot of studios/mangakas have the need to create a couple, even better if it's an MC. And pairing Lucy and Natsu up from the beginning doesn't make any sense, they just met and didn't know each other.

Lisanna is a really important person to Natsu, although they hardly interact anymore.

She supported Natsu when he first came to the guild and became his first friend. Not only that, she helped him with Happy, hence the whole wife and husband thing, they represented a family.

Natsu is not as stupid as they make him out to be, he knows what marriage is, exclusivity to a partner

and things only adults are supposed to do.

He knew what Lisanna meant by "we'll get married in the future," and if she had never "died," NaLi would have made sense.

But it happend, Lisanna "died" and Natsu had to get over her. This doesn't mean forget her tho, as I said, Natsu LOVES his family and friends, forgetting about lisanna just because she died would not make any sense. It takes time to accept death, and after Igneel's disappearance, the death of lisanne hit him, HARD.

The only thing he could do was getting over her, but not forgetting her.

And that's when Lucy comes into the picture.

She keeps bumping into him, buys him food for "no reason" and talks all mighty and good about his family, basically, she gives him good vibes. He takes her to FT and for some reason she follows him everywhere and before he knows it, he wants to partner up with her.

This is development by natsu's part, he is ready to open up to new people (Lucy) and pretty much they become attached to the hip, because "she is nice", yeah, that's his reason.

Lisanna wasn't meant to come back, mashima himself said so, the only reason they brought her back was because the animation staff preasured him to because they liked her. NaLi is not happening because Mashima never had anything planned for her, and I'm not saying this because I'm a NaLu fan, it's just facts. Thats why she is so useless in the manga, because mashima doesn't know what to do with her. She is just there.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Let's beging with the whole suicide thing

I want to clarify that this is MY PERSPECTIVE, you might agree or disagree with me and thats completely fine.

Let me beging with one thing, and that is that natsu IS NOT SUICIDAL.

He wants to live his life at the fullest and he looks forward to the future.

Then why do I say he wanted to kill himself? because when lucy "died", he was so full of grief that he just didn't care any more.

One thing that they make clear is that the demons of zeref, once awaken, have only one thought in their minds: KILLING ZEREF

Lucy's "death" is what awoke END, Natsu felt so desperate and he was so full of grief that he literally abandoned his humanity.

She was gone and he blamed zeref, because if he had never started the war, she would be alive, that was enough for him to abandon his morals and look forward to kill someone.

Now comes the important part: his confrontation with grey

This part is really important because it shows that Natsu is aware of his actions.

If he really was completely possessed by END, then he would not have hesitated and warn grey about getting out of his way, he would have just killed him and keep going, but Natsu warns him several times

Until he doesn't give a damn anymore and attacks him.

Natsu was adamant about going after zeref and killing him, but he is also aware that if he does so, he will die. Zeref told him so himself.

But lucy is dead, so he just doesn't care anymore.

Igneel talked to him about looking at the future

But Lucy wasn't in that future anymore, so he can't look forward for it, because it died the moment Lucy did. if she wasn't in it, why bother? He knew that killing zeref was killing himself.

Gray literally saved Natsus life confronting him

This whole panel is foreshadowing to Lucy dying and Natsu wanting to die because of it

I've never understood the NaLi vs NaLu stuff

Just make them all date each other

[haibarashiho]

Nali rant cuz I’m always frustrated about them

If hiro took the anime addition seriously besides what he already wrote in her first appearance we would have gotten the most wholesome childhood friends to lovers. With trauma and angst and actual abandonment tissue from both sides because of the separation , Someone comeback alive to him means a lot .

And we would have seen natsu actually interested in romance and woman for the first time based on his childhood in serious way especially after everything that happened to them and he obviously liked her with that heart in his mouth ❤️

His attachment to Lisanna would hit different since it is from childhood. Hence his reaction probably would differ from what we got with Lu

Ask

How does Lisanna along with Mirajane and Erza reveal to Natsu that they are pregnant?

Lisanna would tell him simply, Mirajane will hand him a gift made for newly father and let his mind connect the dots, and Erza will walk up to him in a wedding dress and tell him the new of his fatherhood and imminent marriage with her as Natsu Scarlet.

I think seeing these two images side by side is kinda funny

[juviasbestgirl]

Apparently Natsu clearly likes Lisanna but for some reason always spends his free time around Lucy. He literally sneaks into her bed often and actively seeks her out but yes tell us how he loves Lisanna over Lucy.

Also I didn’t know Natsu groping Lucy and wanting to see her naked and imagining her in a reverse bunny suit and getting jealous of guys hitting on Lucy was something siblings do. That sounds like incest to me. This person is delusional.

NaLu are like siblings but this is how their creator draws them:

I guess yall have a weird relationship with yall siblings. Keep your Sweet Home Alabama shit to yourselves.

Heyya.

I just read your analysis and I wondered what do you think would have happened if Lisanna had never died? Would Lucy still be as important as she is now or would NaLi be the end game? Based on what you know of the characters I mean.

Thank you so much.

Well, to be honest?? No idea

Natsu and Lucy meet because he was looking for Igneel, it had nothing to do with lisanna.

Lucy would still be important and Team Natsu would most likely still have been formed, as far as I'm concerned Natsu and Lisanna were never job partners.

Lisanna, Mira and Elfman were, while natsu did his thing.

The whole romantic triangle would have been more obvious (probably), but I guess we'll never know.

Outra fic para o desafio do Spirit, eu sofri para fazer essa capa porque estava sem nenhuma ideia do que fazer

CALLING ALL FAIRY TAIL FANS: community zine idea

A zine in the style of a Sorcerer Weekly magazine, filled with different articles, photoshoots drawn by artists, and people to edit it all together.

Reblogs appreciated I want to hear feedback on this idea, if successful I’ll organise a discord and an application form!

Other questions like characters, theme, and whether it should have a physical version you can buy will come one the results for this are in

(Shipping discussion below)

Ships would need to be decided on by the creators involved. As this is a gossip magazine there could be multiple articles about couples with overlapping characters.

As much as I’d prefer that to be kept to a minimum, I know it would make for a fun read.

I’d assume the majority would be the classics of nalu, gruvia and gale. But it would be fun to see classic Nalu vs Nali article, or Gruvia vs Lyvia.

[moxiepoxart]

You know what? I’d like to see NSFW NaLi, if requests are still going on. Bring some much needed balance to this fandom, y’know?

I agree, however, it doesn’t feel right for me to draw. My NaLi vision can't develop past these two idiot kids sharing a braincell. Natsu would view Lisanna as the smart one but it's just the blind leading the blind. They burst into the guild and do shit like this 👇

My take on shipping

So this is something of a rant and may end up quite long so I apologise but I've been seeing a lot of anti-shipping going and some general hate towards other creators for simply enjoying this amazing work we've all come to love in their own way.

That being said this blog in particular is a safe place for people to ship whoever they like because at the end of the day (as much as we don't want it to be) this is a fictional world and these are fictional characters.

I love personally ship of the more popular ships like nalu and gruvia, but that's just me and how I interpret the story. Yes I'm not a huge fan of other ships like gratsu but I don't go out of my way to look for that content and if it comes across my dash my first thought is "huh that's different, not my cup of tea, but different" then I move on.

It baffles me that some people waste their energy on spewing hatred towards others simply because they don't like the same things they do. I've read so many fics where I've been sceptical of the pairings but have actually ended up enjoying because it was a new and refreshing take on these beloved characters. I've also read fics where I ended up not enjoying the pairing or I found it distracting but I simply closed the tab and didn't look back.

Honestly we stunt our own enjoyment of this by only sticking to what we like instead of experimenting with the material we've been given. If we're only ever spewing hatred and arguing then no one is creating anything new and the whole fandom turns into a toxic swamp, which is sad for those of us that actually want to create and share their creations.
