I think this is the kind of show that can handle fillers alright. I mean it's not like some other series where there is some impending doom or great mission. Long as it's between arcs there is free time to focus on the guild going on missions. There are a ton of characters and possibilities for missions long as they get creative. Of course they could mess it up easily, but at least there is good potential for fillers.

Or even just follow Erza in one of her past "giant monster slaying" solo missions before she joined the team. There's also plenty of random stories with Erza Natsu and Gray were still kids you could easily make up. "Natsu's first mission ever!" or something.

A1 studios is quickly becoming one of my fave studios as of late. TONS of awesome shows and I love how they're handling Fairy Tail so far. As of yet, there hasn't been jaw-droppingly bad animation like in Bleach or Naruto at times. Though there were some cross-eyed characters here and there in Fairy Tail. Nothing too serious though. |

Besides I wouldn't mind seeing what happened with Erza and that solo mission. The fact she can take on S class quests means she had some interesting adventures before the show got started.

Wow, new opening and ending already, not big on the ending, but I rather like the opening song this time around, as far as spoilers in it go, They're only spoilers if you know they're spoilers. For the episode it self, some pretty interesting new characters. I like the owl guy, he reminds me of like one of those old He-man figures, or something from The Tick. Also I think he's counting Lucy out a bit prematurely.

GO TO HELL!!!
haha I loved that, theLucy/Juiva fight was fun, loved that little bit where the guy brings up stealing the guy you like, I approve that one little bit of AO 100% I liked the flashbacks, it was always one of my favs. I used to be all for Natsu X Erza before but when the I saw this flashback I started going for Gray X Harem with Erza being part of it also Kana is def the cutest outta the gang when younger. Btw anyone know what the blue creature is in the cage in the background when Gray confronts the owl dude, around the 15:50 mark.

I think so too. Not sure whether because it's manga so the pace seems ok, but when it's animated, it just seems too quick. The villains getting pawned so quickly.
I like Juvia and Lucy's development but the anime makes their combo look like a magical girl show. For some reason, that scene of their holding hands and shining just makes me cringe. well, consider that Grey isn't scared of transportation, it's logical for him to be able to escape that owl guy's capture. Really like his ice-blade too, and the flashback is awesome. I think Grey needs more time fighting Natsu's flame to justify what'll happen in the next episode though.. more rant on that next week. oh, just another thought. Interesting how all Grey thinks of is rescuing Erza rather than Natsu when Natsu's about to be digested! this "twist" of emotion is unusual because everyone would be expecting Grey to think of losing a great comrade in Natsu rather than Erza.
