Top 10 Best Fairy Tail Characters

Erza can be beat in strength rarely but she could never be beat in love, character, and friendship. She cares for her guild as though it is her home, and it is, her home is no longer around. The guild of FT is her home and her life, without FT she might as well be dead, and without Erza FT would be dead to. Nobody compares to her heart and reliability. She trains like a beast and never gives up. I could only dream of being as self confident, self sufficient, loyal, persevering, reliable, honest and powerful as her. Some people think they can live up to Erza and be better or make a draw, but almost NOBODY can withstand the power of her honor, loyalty and power. Even Wendy (an 12 year old girl) couldn't compare to Erzas loyalty, and Wendy lost her home to, FT is her home, she has more loyalty than probably anyone...except Erza. I have had dreams about me someday being in the anime world and meeting Erza, I didn't ever want to wake up...in conclusion, Erza is the best character in FT! ;P

Who's the most powerful female in Fairy Tail and practically the whole world? Who can re-equip at lightning speed into a hundred forms of armour? Who is a master swordsman and lancer, as well as a trained hand-to-hand combatist?

Erza Scarlet.

She's strong, brave and caring. She's pulled through a hell of a past. She's fought tooth-and-nail for Fairy Tail, and sacrificed just as much as anyone. She's the youngest wizard to ever become S-class. She gives the cheeky punks (Natsu and Gray) tough love and scares the hell out of everyone. She's a knight from legend, Queen Titania of the fairies.

And she's also number one on this list!

Erza is literally my favorite anime character ever and always will be. She's literally my spirit animal... basically I adore her, and it's like the best thing ever when she gets a fight scene. I also think she needs more character development... maybe I'm being influenced by others but I've heard that she didn't get that much in the Tartaros arc. But yeah, forever obsessed with her, and I think her friendship with Gray and Natsu is one of the very best things about the anime. Can't wait to see what happens to them and the rest of Fairy Tail after Tartaros! (I'm watching the anime before the manga)

Erza is the best character, no contest. Her loyalty, her pride, and her leadership are just a few of the many, many, MANY, great things about her. I love her requipping Magic, because she can use different armor to fight different magic, like Flame Empress, Sea Empress, Lightning Empress, etc. And her though was despite what she's been through is inspiring. When she fights, it's all or nothing, and she never backs down. Everyone else in Fairy Tail obviously thinks the same because they made her guild master, not anyone else. I also love her relationship with Jellal, I like the other ships too, but I'm A Jerza shipper through and through. And I'm sorry but anyone who thinks Erza belongs with Natsu or Gray is sorely mistaken, she doesn't like them like that. If I had to be a member of Fairy Tail I would chose Erza, she's just amazing!

Gray Fullbuster is my favorite character for many reasons. (This is going to be long) First of all, his backstory is tragic. (SPOILERS) He was blamed for the death of his mentor who sacrificed herself for him and as a result his childhood 'friend' grew up to hate him. He watched his parent's get murdered by a demon, and then his guardian who he was closest too got killed murdering that same demon. Just when he though his father was alive, he dies in front of him. And yet he lives on, and is brave and selfless. Secondly, his fights. Now that he has devil-slaying magic, I believe that he's possibly stronger than Natsu (Maybe equal to END? ) and maybe matched evenly with Erza. He can freeze literally EVERYTHING! And his abilities are great, like his blood-ice thing. He uses his brain as well, such as producing magic too fast so that Rufus' mind couldn't keep up, freezing his own blood because of one detail Ultear mentioned, working with Lyon to figure out Racer's secret (that episode ...more

Gray is a wonderful character simply because unlike the other members who each possess unique abilities E.G. Dragon Slaying, ice making magic can be learnt by almost all mages but it is up to you to hone it. Gray is creative (gosh, his intelligence is always overlooked, I have no idea why. Maybe because he enjoys his silly but friendly fights with Natsu too much? ) His battles usually include strategy (take his fast reaction by freezing his blood while fighting Ultear even though she only mentioned a detail once for example). His back story is heartbreaking but he chooses to live on. He is selfless. He has saved many souls (e.G. Lyon, Juvia, Ultear.). He is unbelievably kind and gentle (look how he treats the exceeds. Even Frosch! ) Plus he's ' hot.

He's honestly the only main character that had any decent development throughout the season and the only guy I could care about. Sure, Erza might have better fights, Lucy might be more smarter (which I disagree with), and Natsu might have cool power-ups, but Gray is the most unique and interesting. It saddens me on how underlooked his character is and how much Mashima just did not care for his character as much as he did with everyone else. Gray was super underused, and yet is the only one in his team who shows actual growth. While he might have a more typical dark shounen backstory, it works for his character. If there is any reason to watch Fairy Tail, Gray is a reason.

I think Gray Fullbuster is an outstanding character and not only is he one of the only main characters that gets good character development but he's also pretty strong. As we see on the Galuna Island Arc he has to face his past and stop running away from it. We see Gray get stronger and stop running away from his past. There are a few other arcs where we see more character development. Overall he's a great character and so great he appeared twice.

This dude totally deserved the top. He had been through so much, first captured by his captors when he was young, got possessed, nearly died (and then got saved by Wendy), lost all his memories and got arrested for something that wasn't actually his fault 'cause he was being possessed. He totally deserves to sit back, relax and enjoy the sunset. But YET he devotes himself to destroying dark guilds and societies that threatens "peace" to atone for his 'sins' which technically wasn't even his fault. He never stops, no matter how much hate people have for him, no matter the risk of being arrested again, and no matter how much of his horrible past is brought up. I also like that even though Erza and Jellal obviously care for each other a lot, they know how to keep their distance and don't get all lovey-dovey. He totally shows how much he cares for Erza not through loud actions, be subtle ways. An amazing character with even more amazing character development. Totally deserves 1st.

SPOILER WARNING

Beautifully written character! I love how he makes such a good villain at first, as he's so strategic and clever, and then when he becomes good again he's even better! He is relatable for me, which is hard to come by since most characters I see I actually have a hard time relating to. I love how he helped the Oracion Seis as well and formed Crime Sorciere with Ultear and Meldey! He wants to keep fighting for redemption and try and help people! His magic is also really beautiful! The only thing that really bugs me about him is his relationship with Erza, whom I highly dislike. The almost-kiss was cute though.

I examine Jellal in four stages.

1. Child Jellal

He is cute, kind, gentle, selfless and courageous. He loves his friends and would never do anything to hurt them. However, he is hopeless and angry and bitter towards his captors. I like him and feel sorry for him.

2. Crazy Jellal (Ultear's manipulation-resolution of Tower of Heaven Arc)

His lack of hope for the future and the potential for achieving freedom and his anger and bitterness towards his captors give Ultear an advantage when she manipulates him. I also believe that as a child without training in the field of magic or magic abilities of his own he was more susceptible to magical manipulation. I desperately wanted him to triumph over his darker emotions and Ultear, but I do not blame him for breaking. He is now cruel, selfish and manipulative. I know he is crazy, but that does not excuse his behavior, especially as he gets older. He was good and he had a strong sense of justice. His perspective may ...more

Jellal has had a pretty much cursed life. And what does he do, he doesn't whine and give up and complain like others (*COUGH! LUCY, WENDY, JUVIA)
He was a slave for most of his childhood, but he was always willing to sacrifice himself in place of his friends. He never complained, just stayed positive, hoping that his friends would be happy eventually.

(Time skip, Oracion Seis Arc) Jellal has no memories but chooses to believe the words of a stranger (Erza) and helps her as well as the alliance. Then he is taken away to prison or possibly his death, but he faces it head on without even questioning justice.

Jellal definitely doesn't get enough time to be seen and heard, but the parts we do see, are amazing. Go JELLAL!

NATSU is bad my life everything! He is my hero my inspiration. My hero. He is so loyal and sexy and hot. DUH! Like he care about his comrades and always protect the ones he loves and the anime it self is so good and NATSU is just my favorite character so I don't know why he is number like the hell is this. He is funny, awesome, cute and amazing. He's awesome powers and he teaches me things that apply to real life. He never shows his weakness and helps others like lucy and happy. He has a soft side and a tough side as well. His quotes are pretty inspirational. His character is what makes him amazing.

Natsu may not be the smartest nor the most complex character Fairy Tail has made but he is in the end, he's a character that I can get behind. The degree to which he cares for his family is impressive and in the end, he's a breath of fresh air because unlike everyone else he has his baggage but he doesn't dwell on it as much as so many others do. He lives for the moment and does what he thinks is right despite his fears or mistakes. I can respect that. Plus if people as awesome as Erza are willing to put faith in him, I see no reason to doubt him either and just love him for who he is.

I see why people think he overshadows characters I mean he's kind of the main character of the main characters if you catch my drift. Also, to be fair, the other main characters kind of have their arcs. I get why he may be overshadowing the minor characters like (random) Romeo and Freed but again, for the most part the story revolves around him and the people surrounding him. He's also the reason Zeref is the "Black Wizard" and emperor Spriggan (or whatever).
I also think that Natsu is just a good character in general. People may say he's an idiot, which of course he is, but he is also good (at times) with finding weakness in opponents techniques or the opponents themselves. He's also always bright and cheerful and yeah.

Natsu is Natsu. He's part of the foundation of the guild and encourages people when they're down or when they need it. He pulls through when times are tough and finds the best in situation. He's also one of the main characters and the plot kind of revolves around him, especially for the Alvarez Arc. And the end of the Tartaros Arc. Not to mention he can unbelievably adorable and funny. He's always there for his friends and well his family. He also is able to fight with all his might, and keep going after that if it's for his friends!

She should be #1 and let me say why: in spite of the fact she doesn't belong to the Fairy Tail Guild, the sacrifices she made for them and for the world are beyond restitution. By sacrificing her youth and life span, she gave Gray a second chance to live on, rescuing him from the death, as well as saving everyone else's life (Droy, Macao, Bacchus, etc) and allowing them to defeat Future Rogue. Before that, she had saved Natsu from being murdered by this Furute Rogue, attacking him with her "Flash Forward", which forced him to fleed. Then, during the present Alvarez Arc, she has broken through Dimaria's Age Seal, using just an astral projection, and saved Wendy for being slaughtered by the Spprigan. So, here, folks, we see this formidable Ice and Time mage dismissing one of the strongest spells cast by one of the Shields of Zeref. Plus, using this very same astral projection, she granted both Wendy and Sherria with Third Origin, even though only Sherria successfully activated it, ...more

With Jellal (as a villain ofc) and Lyon, Ultear was one of the few villains in this show who had both brilliant background and development. She kinda represents the beginning of the series, where the arcs were more well thought, unlike the powerscale-dependant arcs and villains we're getting right now. Besides, she was an incredibly smart character as she was able to infiltrate successfully the Council and manipulated Jellal to get her job done. She was also not fully insane, as she actually cared for her comrades. Pity that she was in that terrible group of villains :'(

She used the last ages spell even though so was warned not to. She risked her life to save the world and even if it was only a minute she turned back, she stopped Gray dying and everyone had a glimpse into the future helping them to defeat the dragons. She's a character that is greatly overlooked and deserved more. In my eyes, she is the true hero of fairy tail and deserves much much more credit for what she did

Aside from mastering more than one magic, huge magic power since birth, Last Ages was the most impressive spell in the manga. She basically altered reality, turned back time for the whole world and undo death. It even worked on living dragons. Even if most people didn't realize it, she's the only person in the whole story with magic that can affect the entire planet.

I personally like Juvia very much. I know, the way she loves Gray skirts madness, but, if you are following the manga, you've seen what she has done while battling Gray under Invel's spell. Against all odds, she has broken through his spell and tried to take her own life, so that Gray would be free of the chains and could beat Invel - which he did, magisterially. Plus, my respect towards her skyrocketed when I saw her killing Keith, probably the first time she killed someone since she joined Fairy Tail. The huge amount of mature feelings and thoughts that popped up during that fight are beyond description, hence why she is my favorite Fairy Tail's female character.

I agree that Juvia's "fangirlishness" can be overwhelming at times, but it still made for several good comedic moments. I absolutely love her backstory and personality, especially her serious and collected side. She is incredibly powerful too. Even if she tends to go on bout her "love rivals", she still loves all her comrades, even Lucy who spends a lot of time with Gray. She would gladly give up her well-being for a comrade. Her love for Gray is also 100% sincere, and it drives her. As for her being rather emotional, she is a water mage after all.

Juvia is a character that is rare in Fairy Tail. She doesn't like showing off her body (except to Gray) and she is hilarious. She also has some pretty awesome outfits. I really like how under all that stalker stuff, she's really a nice person. She also had pretty awesome powers, and, unlike Wendy, where she is a sweet person but is not incredibly strong, she is actually very strong. I also really like her and Gajeels friendship. I wish there was more of it.

Juvia is one of the best, she has a lot of super cool magics. And there are more to her powers than what we just see, she needs to be more noticed and not to be underestimated. Aside from that she is very inspiring, especially her views on love, she may go overboard with her feelings to gray but she Always show that love is a really powerful weapon. Her loyalty to fairy tail just adds up to her good qualities, she trully shows that she will do anything for the people she loves.

Criminally underused. Her personality makes her easy to like because she's an angel around her friends, and then you find out that she's also a complete savage when she fights people using Satan Soul. I wish we saw more of her. More of her backstory (the small amount that we got during the Tartaros arc was great), more fights, more times where she uses the demons that she took over (I REALLY wanted to see her use Seilah more and not just put a bunch of people to sleep). Hopefully she gets more time to shine in 100 Year Quest.

I just love her. After all that happened to her (I mean her sisters "death") she was still strong, because she knew she had to protect her family. She always smiles. She know, that every single person is good inside. She always cheers everyone up, and if she cries, I'm crying too. She always believes in her friends and that there's rainbow after clouds. Such positive character! Besides, she's sometimes very funny.

Mira deserves more screen time. She's underrated and overrated at the same time. She's supposed to be super strong, but she's often portrayed as weak and bad at battling. She's also underrated for the same reason; she only ever gets good fight scenes when she's mad for her siblings or if her opponents are weak. She deserves more fight scenes!

I really love Mirajane. She's too kind and she's so positive. I believe she's the third strongest in fairy tail (guild) after mavis and makarov. Afterall we still doesn't know what's her limit. Even she might able to defeat mavis or makarov since she now have macro. She can control everyone and make them do things and she can do it every time she wants too. And she got a lot of strong demons. But her past is a bit too much for a cutie like her. Cause she defeated a demon for her village but still the villagers wants mirajane to go away from the village. BUT WHO CARES. WE ALL LOVE MIRAJANE

I personally find Lucy to be conceited when it comes to her looks, and annoying when she simply sits back and watches as Natsu, Gray, Erza, etc save everyone. But when she actually gets up on her feet and fights, she's fairly strong. She has a lot of potential, and I believe the reason her power isn't as great as say, Juvia's, is because she spent so much of her life cooped up in a mansion. She also incredibly smart, if not a bit naive and superficial, and also cares for her friends. I think the reason she's not as driven as many of the other characters is because the traumatic events in her past weren't as severe. Overall, she's either my 5th or 6th favourite

People who hates Lucy are idiots to me. Lucy may be annoying sometimes but she is a very kindhearted , clever and caring person. From episode 1-100 she may be very annoying but if you continue watching you will realise that she is a kindhearted and caring girl. She deeply cares for her friends . Even though she is not very powerful , at the end of the chapter, she got even more powerful and helps out a little bit. But seriously she at the 10th place ! I can't believe it she should at least be 3rd or 4th. One thing about Lucy is that she is very pretty , pretty enough to be the top 10 prettiest anime girl in all of the anime .

Lucy is honestly my favorite character. She is a mediocre mage who has a chance meeting with Natsu. When she joined a guild full of powerhouses she knew she was out of her league. Does she quit? No! She could've left at any point in the story, but she didn't. So what if she's obsessed with her looks? She is the ONLY normal person who has realistic expectations, goals, flaws, and power at her age. She received no advice or training like Natsu, Gray, or Laxus. She relies on Natsu to save her because, there is no way she can fight Gajeel, and others above her. It took years for her to finally stand on her own two feet. Even before Alvarez she can hold down a stable job and a house with the money SHE earned. Since her father went broke, she had to get her own money. That is Lucy Heartfillia

How is the main character at number 7 on this list?! I've loved Lucy ever since the start, she's has amazing qualities that make her hilariously relatable: has trouble with her love life(ahem forget about that, she's got a Natsu ), the most logical out of all her friends, and is especially relatable when it comes to struggles about her personal problems. Most people who dislike Lucy only don;t like her because they think she 'sits back and lets Natsu and her friends fight for her instead of doing it for herself'. Well, guess what?

Lucy DOES fight for herself when she can. Remember in Tartaros, when everyone was isolated in that stuff and she was the only one left? She fought until she could barely move, and if you read the manga, you would know: after a year, Lucy turned from medium strength to a badass. Like seriously, how much more beautifully strong can you get? She probably matches Erza in both beauty AND power now!

Do I need to explain? He is kind, loving and adorable. I'm not going to talk about how hot he is (he is the sexiest guy I know) because that will make me sound like the other comments. His character made such an emotional impact on me; the loss of Lector completely changed him, a genuinely unique character who was not born evil. He was abused, bullied and rejected; now as Sabertooth's master, he ensures the well-being of every comrade, guild member or not. His character even makes huge impacts on the mains, particularly Natsu (we can see this via the episode 'Natsu's Mind - Natsu's subconscious creates an image of Sting to guide him. Not Gray, not Lucy, not even Igneel, but Sting). The fact he picked Sting shows the huge impact he has on others as a character. I love him to bits, and any haters really need to look at his character development and personality. Because personally, he is my all time favorite anime character.

So hot! When I first saw him a little before the grand magic games, I was just like...*stare*
Need I say more of his great charms?
He is also very smart, and that part where he gives up at the end is just so heartbreaking, and so sweet of him to give up for Lecter...
It's also so nice how he sees Natsu as someone to look up to.
I love how he develops, and I especially like how after the master of Sabertooth(during the gmg) and minerva go away, he changes the guild to such a great place! SO CARING!

Sting is not only super strong but he constantly works hard to improve his skills and knows the true meaning of friendship. also he is so cute especially his friendship with Lecter and the way he looks up to Natsu is adorable.

As soon as he appeared alongside Rogue and their exceeds at ep.151, he sent me into anime hell. With his hillarious facial expressions, honest but warm personality and adorable relationship with Lector, Sting is one of the most damn wonderful Fairy Tail characters in the show.

Gajeel is one of the best Fairy Tail characters. He may act cold amd uncaring but he really does care about the guild especially Lily and Levy. Also, at the end of the Tartaros arc who remembers him comforting Wendy when the dragons were disappearing. He is in a way quite like Vegeta. He is quick to adapt and has so much power. He literally absorbs Rogue's shadows and uses it combined with his iron dragon magic to defeat Rogue. And we know that he is already better than any singer, shoo be do ba. Gajeel is an amazing character that really deserves to be a lot higher on the list.

Ever since Gajeel saved Levy from Laxus' attack, he's been my favorite character. I honestly was surprised when he came back, and I didn't expect them to do much with him, but he's grown so much over the course of the series, mores than any other character. His transformation from a cold-hearted brute to a guy who just wants get back on the right track, and then to an extremely loyal member of the guild that'll do anything to protect those that he cares for (Levy in particular) is really inspiring. We get to see some of his backstory in the Tenrou and Tartaros arcs, which just makes him an even more interesting character. His relationship with Pantherlily is always fun to watch, and let's be real...Gajeel x Levy is the best ship in Fairy Tail. It's the only one that's actually canon, and Gajeel always goes out of his way to try and protect Levy, and vice versa. Their interactions are always just adorable, and their personalities just bounce off of each other really well.

Gajeel is honestly one of my favorite characters, and I love how we get to see both his soft side and his tough side. I think he's especially cute when he's protective of Levy or Panther Lilly, and he and Natsu are hella funny together. Another one of his traits I respect is that as Lilly points out, Gajeel is quick to adapt to his opponents in a fight, which makes him formidable and stronger than just power.

Gajeel is one of my favorite characters in Fairy Tail. His personality is enjoyable and interesting, his looks are amazing, and his character development was one of the best parts of Gajeel. He was a former Phantom Lord member, but when he joined Fairy Tail, he changed for the better. I didn't like him at first, but when he helped out his members like Levy, Jet, and Droy, I really started to enjoy him.

Freed is just the sweetest, most intelligent, most handsome, kindest, and all around amazing little cinnamon bun you have ever laid eyes on. Voting him's easy!

Freed is absolutely my favorite character. His magic is powerful and elegant and he's much more complex than any other character in Fairy Tail.

Freed is AWESOME! He was nominated for S-Class! This dude is strong, kind, protective of Laxus, and smart. (Anybody remember when this man had a buzz cut? )

I can't believe he made the list! I would not have pinned him as one of the top characters.

I don't understand why he isn't higher. He was the only member of Sabertooth that questioned what their guild was doing, even going as far to call their guild's motives wrong. He didn't join them in the arena when they were going to throw down after Minerva hurt Lucy, not did he watch Minerva beat her up. He also has such a soft side for Frosh which is ADORABLE. And then there's the whole shadow thing. He's had to deal with the fact that in the future he could kill Sting, and yet he still strives to be happy. Honestly, I love Rogue. He should be at least 12.

In my opinion, Rogue is much more better-looking than Gray. At first, he shows his disinterest in everything and everyone, with Gajeel as the only person and thing he was interested in. He longed to surpass Gajeel. Rogue actually spoke up and questioned the Sabertooth guild's policies. After a while, he shows his caring nature towards his comrades. Rogue should be in the top ten.

He's a total cutie (along with Sting of course) and he starts off seeming all 'not interested' and everything, but in that episode in which Frosch gets lost, Rogue isn't just a calm and cool character, he has a lot more personality. And he was always really kind, such as doubting his guild for kicking Yukino out. And when he's so protective over Frosch after Lector is 'killed' is so cute

I love Rogue more than Sting. His family name is so cute. And had to admit he look so badass in the shadow "mode". His exceed, Frosch, is over-cute! I love the way he protect Frosch when Lector disappears. (And I love Sting x Rogue) Poor Rogue he has to face that Frosch is killed and being evil. But we can ease now -v-

Zeref Dragneel is the best! He is the most complex and interesting character in Fairy Tail. A lot of the characters in Fairy Tail have unique backstories but Zeref definitely has the most tragic and devastating one, which makes him all the more sympathetic. Almost every character in the series misunderstood him as a malevolent being who had no heart but in reality, Zeref is a very kindhearted, sweet, gentle, compassionate, selfless, and well-meaning individual who spent centuries feeling miserable because of his curse. Not even his younger brother Natsu understood him despite being aware of the curse (though he did eventually relaize his mistake in Fairy Tail:100 Year Quest), which is just sad. Thankfully, Zeref died happily after being loved back by Mavis Vermillion.

Zeref's portrayal in both the manga and the anime is outstanding. I'm a huge Zeref fan and I think he's very underrated and deserves to be number 1. I just wish he had more scenes because his kind of character ...more

GET HIM HIGHER! He is obviously the coolest! He tried to bring back his little bro but he ended up cursed instead but that is not his fault. And besides thinking about how he got cursed makes me want to strangle natsu since he is trying to oppose and fight against his older brother who is going through a lot of suffering for him. If I were zeref I'm sure I would not try to resurrect my sibling if the cost of it was that high so natsu should be grateful instead.

Hey why is Zeref so underrated? Get him higher! Zeref is a badass, awesome character who's extremely kind but was misled. Everyone hates him for his curse, though he never intended to kill anyone and warned them to stay away. He was a good guy, just being misunderstood. He wanted to revive his litte brother, get a horrible curse in the result, if he doesn't eant others to die when they are around him, he mustn't cherish their life. So he tried to hide from humanity in order to protect them but he couldn't stand witnessing them massacre each other, so he slowly begin to renounce his connection to humanity and get into the dark path. He spent his 400 years life seeing wars, fights and his loved ones leaving him whil he can do nothing for that, suffered for centuries and ended up being rejected by the world! Now, he wanted to be killed by the very litte brother he revived to put his miserable life to an end, such a sad ending for a kind, talented prodigy who treasures life more than ...more

I feel sorry for him. He was a good guy, just being misunderstood.

Meredy, although she isn't shown too much, is in my opinion a great character. She is very strong and developed a lot in the short period we saw her. She claimed during her scuttle with Rusty that she lived in the present and he lived in the past, meaning that she's optimistic, and has a reason to live-live for your friends

I think she should be number 1. She has been one of the only characters in fairy tail who I really liked then ended up hating.

Sweet, beautiful, caring, cheerful, and great character development. Meredy is really underrated.

The only problem I have with her is that she saved Ultear but at least Ultear kinda redeems herself.

Wasted character. Every time Mystogan was on-screen prior to the Edolas arc, he was awesome. Putting everyone in the guild to sleep, completely destroying the branches of Phantom Lord, stalemating Laxus, etc. I definitely wanted to see more of him and his abilities. I especially wanted to see how his relationship with Wendy would progress, but their reunion and farewell were in the same arc, which is kinda lame. Regardless, Mystogan will always be a savage, even if everyone forgets he was one of the original S-Class wizards.

Omf. He's myst a lot by the Fairy Tail fans (Including myself. I'm sorry, I had too, okay? ). I loved Mystogan's character. Like, a lot.

So mysterious and so cool, he is like the Fairy Tail's version of Batman. Hope one day he returns.

Only 17? he is the most mysterious and badass Fairy Tail Wizard and it's a shame most people don't remember him anymore, he deserves to make a return to fight agaisnt zeref

Loke is an overrated garbage character. His personality has nothing special besides being a pervert and a player. The only thing cool about him is what he did for Aries, his power, and his clothes, which could easily be given to a better zodiac. Speaking of zodiacs, why is he the leader of them? He shouldn't be given a higher title simply because he's the Lion. I want to see other zodiacs more, like Capricorn, but no, we see Loke instead. Whoopdedoo. What a disappointment he is to those who has the Leo as their constellation sign.

I really liked him at first! (After he turned out to be Leo) but then he became a player flirter a girl every time he was summoned. Geez man put those panties back in your pants!
And anyone else find it a peeve that he wears a tux with sunglasses? No? Okay.

I'm just amazed how most of these ratings are based on looks. Like LOL. Loke isn't even that strong of a character. He is really overrated. I mean, yes he comes to help occasionally, but out of all the celestial spirits, you can't tell me that he's the best. I would get it if Virgo, Aquarius, hell! Even Horologium. He just seems wimpy and his personality is weak and cliché. Just leave it to Taurus with the perverted remarks.

His backstory was so sad! He's my second favorite character (besides Gray) and definitely needs more love.

This woman could destroy anything without even unleashing her sword! That is power! If it wasn't for Erza telling her about Simon's death and getting Kagura so emotional(which broke her focus on the match) then I truly believe that she could have taken Erza down. While watching her fight, I truly thought to myself "Erza might lose." Super strong, a great wizard, needs more screen time. Also, she wear clothes! She's not running around trying to fight in high heels and a bikini! She looks like a warrior, and I love that!

Seriously, Kagura is stronger than Erza. That fight in the GMG did not prove anything. 1. She didn't use any magic! Like really? She might've won the battle if she actually used gravity magic.
2. She got very dramatic when she found out Erza was the one who saved her, so she LET Erza win.
She is also an amazing character and I wish she could fight more to prove her strength!

Kagura is my favourite character. Why? Because she's very strong but is also delicate. She probably could've beaten Erza if she didn't get so emotional. Unlike Erza, she doesn't win EVERY SINGLE BATTLE(not that I hate Erza). She's cool and is not all about her looks, which I like.

Kagura is stronger than Erza. Seriously, during the Grand Magic Games, she definitely would've won.

Happy is the right name for this cute flying kitten. His cheerful smile and voice is so appealing to me and always warms my heart. I love how in the show Happy would have his own scene and he is like dancing or eating fish, its always what I look forwards the most in each episode bc this little cat, just knows how to make someone happy :3

Happy might be the greatest animal side kick in all of anime. Combat-wise, he doesn't have much value. But his comic relief in the series is unparalleled. Fairy Tail might not be the show it is without him.

You really do have to admit: Happy is ADORABLE. And he's not JUST cute. He can FLY, which he uses to get people out of some tricky spots! He's always funny and, well, HAPPY!

Happy is the 2nd worst character in fairy tail (Lucy is the last)! He is annoying and he is not cute and doesn't make me HAPPY! He makes me angry and irritated with him!

He is one of the strongest wizards in whole anime and still he is nice and not arogant like some other guys. Also he is like a father to many guild members. He even cheered natsu up when he knocked him down on s class trial and still let him pass.

Why is he here? Fairy tail's strongest mage, and the4th strongest overall(after zeref/acnologia/igneel on 1andmavis on2andaugust on 3).He is stronger than the spirrigan12. In chp417we see him breaking a hill with a punch which only igneel and acnologia have done in 1 blow. He fought acnologia and survived. Most people forget that. And all of fairy tail core members excluding him couldn't even get acnologia to be serious. Goes to show how strong he is

He's the sweetest character in this anime. He acted almost like a father to natsu and lisanna and despite his power he isn't arrogant or annoying.

I once saw a review about him and they said he was their least favorite character. I almost had a heart attack and asked them why. I was totally raging for the rest of the day. Unlike 90% of FT characters, he's modest and isn't arrogant or constantly challenging people (coughNatsucough LOL, he's so cute, though :) ) like Jellal. That's what I love about him.

SPOILER WARNING

WHAT? Put her on #2! Brilliant story about the formation of the guild! I relate to her so much! Her story with zeref is great and I love her illusion magic! It suits her because she is so clever, yet imaginative and happy! She's also very strategic! The game with Yuri was really great! I love her and I think I relate to her even more than any other character! She's adventurous and insightful and just wants to travel and help the world be a better place! Wonderful character development and I love her and her friend's relationship! It was so terrible when she got cursed! I was so happy when she got her body back though, and her and Zera's relationship is so beautifully done!

We didn't really get to see a lot of her personality until fairy tail zero. At that point, we get fully immersed in just how clever, brilliant, brave, adventurous, and strong willed she is. I really respect characters and people like that. She's like the Artemis Fowl of Fairy Tail. Even down to the fact that they were both looking for fairies. Isn't that an interesting coincidence...

Incredibly smart character. Came up with a master strategy for the Grand Magic Games, and also outwitted Yuri who's pretty smart himself. Also the most influential character as the founder of the Fairy Tail guild.

Sad backstory, super smart, loves her friends, is super cute, founded Fairy Tail, created three of the most powerful spells in the series, her son with Zeref is ridiculously powerful (which makes Mavis seem even more powerful)...what's not to love.
