Lucy is a seventeen-year-old mage with the power to summon stellar spirits, but what she really wants to do is join a guild - and not just any guild. She has her eyes set on Fairy Tail, a notoriously reckless and outrageous group of magic users who are likely to be drunk or destroying buildings and towns in the process of completing a job! While in town one day Lucy meets a perpetually-seasick boy named Natsu who, through a series of events, reveals to her that he's none other than the fire-eating mage Salamander of Fairy Tail! Lucy is finally able to join Fairy Tail and quickly begins to take on odd jobs with Natsu and his gang for fame and profit. Along with her fiery friend, Happy the flying cat, Natsu's archrival Gray and their overseer the invincible and beautiful Ezra, Lucy sets forth for epic adventures that leave an epic amount of destruction in their wake. After all, destroying a city or five doesn't matter as long as they get the job done... right?!

add recFairy Tail and One Piece resemble each other in a lot of ways. They both focus heavily on friendship and how emotions for those you love can give that extra 10% you need to beat your opponent. One of the main characters in Fairy Tail, Natsu, also reminds me of Monkey D. Ruffy in a lot of sutuations. If you've only read one of them give the other one a try.
There characters are very similar and the plot and pacing can give you a feeling of deja vu at times.
Where are Fairy Tale and One Piece not similar. Luffy and Natsu both have remarkable power and take every challenge head on. They both are happy go-lucky guys who are optimistic about everything. When both mangas started out, both characters were without close friends but as the story went on, they gradually started to form a group of unbeatable friends with all sorts of powers.
Though the story's may differ, the atmosphere one gets from reading about how both Natsu and Luffy take on hardships is almost inspirational. The battles are intense and just freaking powerful. Each page is suspenseful in both mangas and everyone should jump aboard with Natsu and Luffy's adventure.

add recBoth the main characters in Naruto and One Piece have limitless determination when it comes to their dreams. They don't care if you try to harm them mentally or physically but they will crush you with their true strength when it comes to harming anyone that they care about. Other than that all you will see is a couple of idiots that can't take care of themselves unless someone is with them. Leaving the reader wanting to see what will happen to these two people in their numerous battle packed adventures on their way to achieving their dreams.
Both Naruto and One Piece have central protagonist who is driven by the determination to fulfil their dream. Both Naruto and Luffy are headstrong and vivacious characters that you can't help but like. Mix in a good dose of humour and action and if you enjoyed one then the other is well worth checking out!

add recOne Piece and Hunter X Hunter are both similar with the fact that both of the Main characters have almost the same kind of outlook in life. Luffy and Gon are a couple of simple minded people that mostly dedicate themselves to their nakama and dreams, and they happen to have a strong kind of justice. When they started they probably didn't think they would end up meeting many different people, making many different friends and enemies, getting into fights that make them stronger than before, and being amongst the top trouble magnets around. Watch out world, Gon and Luffy are on the loose!
