Most Overrated Fairy Tail Characters

The Top Ten
1 Erza Scarlet Erza Scarlet is an S-Class Mage from the infamous magic guild Fairy Tail. Erza starts off as a lone wolf and stays loyal to following the rules. As the story develops Erza changes into loving mage strong and independent. As her terrible past haunts her she ignores her Nakama's calls that they want help. ...read more.

She's hot? Yeah. Strong? Yeah. that's WHY EVERYONE LIKES HER, Lucy is hated for actually having logical strength and Erza only gets stronger because she can't look bad for the fanbase, its kind of ridiculous that most 12 year olds hate Lucy because she's not Erza, jfc. Erza made Kagura look like trash.

Same as above. Power of friendship, nakama speeches,... blah blah blah, then she wins... because she's Erza! What a funny reason!

Overrated doesn't always mean bad, and it definitely doesn't in Erza's case

She's kind of the same as Natsu.Overpowered,friendship plot device, and mostly praised and loved.

2 Natsu Dragneel Natsu Dragneel is a Mage of the Fairy Tail Guild.Natsu is carefree and reckless in nature, and, despite his consistent brawls with the other members of Fairy Tail, he is a fiercely loyal and protective friend. He is willing to go down fighting for his friends, regardless of how futile it might seem. Natsu has a straightforward mind, and often tackles issues with a "hands on" approach. His solution to problems often involve violence. Even when disrespected or faced with obvious hostility, Natsu rarely ever reciprocates the feelings, and often forgoes grudge-holding.

Natsu is so stupidly overpowered it makes me kinda reluctant to like him as a character without being able to predict the outcome of an Arc... But in reality he's really only protected by plot armor, if not... Lets just say he would be so alive and well

It is the plot armor and nakama power guys! People say Natsu can defeat Zeref because of the FDK Mode, but it's a temporary power! Natsu is the King of Asspulls, and it keeps getting worse and worse post 2nd timeskip.

Worst character ever

3 Etherious Natsu Dragneel

Oh, E.N.D. is the most powerful demon! He's stronger than Zeref and Acnologia! Maybe that's true, but we have never seen him in action, have we? Those are just predictions and assumptions.

4 The Twin Dragons of Sabertooth

Aka Sting and Rogue. After being hyped as being able to slay dragons, they were singlehandedly defeated by Natsu. Again, that's the result when you're fighting against someone with such a strong plot armour!

They were way overpowered!

5 Celestial Spirit King
6 Lucy Heartfilia Lucy Heartfilia is a wizard in the guild, Fairy Tail. Her magic is called celestial spirit magic which allows her to summon spirits from another world. She currently possesses fifteen celestial keys, which is an extraordinary number for a celestial mage. She gets along best with Team Natsu, containing ...read more.

Crybaby, only used for fanservice. Had no development at all, still as weak as she was when the anime started, has no goals, has a pretty annoying personality, has no use during fights, etc.

She needs more hate than Erza Scarlet. Her power is overrated. She's not that strong. She doesn't deserve to be well-liked for being a wimpy crybaby.

+Crystalsnow Everything user cana_alberona said is true,Erza needs more hate,she gets enough love.And this what cana_alberona said isn't mean,it's too mild.

Other than that, I posted this comment that Erza Scarlet should not be less well-received than the characters I demanded you to criticize for being mainly defenceless. >:(

7 Laxus Dreyar Laxus is an S-Class Mage from the guild named Fairy Tail. Laxus is a very tall and muscular young man with orange eyes (portrayed as blue/gray in the anime); his hair is slicked back, its numerous spiky strands pointing backwards, though some falls down in a small tuft on his forehead. He has a distinct lightning bolt-shaped scar on his right eye, and much like his father and grandfather, his eyes have dark circles, with each of them possessing a single, prominent eyelash jutting outwards.

He's really overrated after the second timeskip. Everyone is like " Oh, after one year's training, he must be really powerful now! ", then his defeating a Spriggan surely doesn't help. But the Spriggans are suffering the same fate Sabertooth did many years ago, which is being hyped to the sky and then be beaten far too easily. Every Spriggan ( probably except for August, Eileen and Larcade ) has been trollled by Mashima right after they made an appearance! They are really unlucky.

8 Ice Devil Slayer Gray Fullbuster Gray Fullbuster a fairytail wizard is a kind sensitive person which can be mainly found in underwear or fighting a guildmate / friend brother Natsu Dragneel (which I am supersede dint make this list) anyway Gray has a habit of stripping which he found while training with his now unfortunately dead master Ur. Overall Gray is kind but cold he is a ice maker Mage with huge insecurities he loves his master and wants to take revenge on ond of Zerefs devil Deleora.

No feats at all. The fights that he have fought so far since he got that power are all against demons, which is convenient for his magic. Gaining his father's power wouldn't automatically give him a village-freezing feat!

Why is he here? He is so far from overrated

9 Mavis Vermillion Mavis Vermilion is the first guild master of the infamous guild Fairy Tail. She started as a poor young girl with no parents and friends. She worked for the guild Red Salamander on Tenrou Island. Tenrou Island is also the island that belongs to the Fairy Tail guild where her grave is.

Yeah, Founder of Fairy Tail and Creator of the Three Great Fairy Magics and all that, but those are all HYPES. Mavis has rarely been shown fighting, plus the hypes in Fairy Tail may get out of hand at times, for example that time with the Sabertooth guild.

10 Juvia Lockser Juvia Lockser is a Fairy Tail Mage . When Juvia was young she was abandoned by her parents because she was followed by the rain . Juvia lived in a orphanage but she never felt at home there she was mistreated by the children there because she was different from them,she was a Mage she had blue hair ...read more.
The Contenders
11 Jellal Fernandes Jellal Fernandes is a childhood friend of Erza Scarlet. When he lost his own memory, he was a Dark Mage who desperately sought to revive Zeref via the R-System. Jellal served as the main antagonist of the Tower of Heaven arc and is currently a member and co-founder of Crime Sorcière.

Great,but honestly,should be 2 he was most overrated after Erza

The character with the worst development in Fairy Tail. Pretty sure most of his/her fans like him because of his "good looks" and because Erza and him tend to fall on top of each other a lot. Mashima literally shoved him in the history randomly and he ended up being useless always. The only time he was actually doing something useful was at the Magic Games Arc and he ended up doing nothing in the end. He had lots of potential to be a good character but Mashima ruined him. Should have stayed in jail or dead after Natsu kicked his ass back at the Heaven Tower.

How is gray higher?

MOST UNDERRATED CHARACTER EVER!

12 Mystogan / Edolas Jellal

He barely does anything. And he's definitely nowhere near Jellal's power level just because he's his counterpart! ( He IS one of my favourites though... )

13 God Serena

He is more like underrated,very forgettable character.And he is overpowered.

14 Gildarts Clive

Again, he rarely appears. He's overhyped.

15 Zeref Dragneel Zeref Dragneel is a character from the anime/manga series, Fairy Tail, created by Hiro Mashima. He debuted in chapter 200 of the manga, and episode 96 in the anime. In Fairy Tail, Zeref is considered to be the strongest Dark Wizard of all time, who was under the Curse of Contradiction. He is the founder ...read more.
16 Ultear - Fairy Tail

I don't like her not reformed, annoying, cruel, Unforgivable, she a evil villain jerk, it doesn't excuse ruin people life. I don't trust her.

Kagura vs evil Ultear jerk

She trying to kill poor rogue
