Fairy Tail - Recommendations

Shiraiyuki says...

I think Ao no Exorcist and Fairy tail are similar because they both focus on the importance of friendship, that if you want to achieve something you are not alone, you have your friends....and they're both very funny animes, if you like one I'm sure you'll like the other.

LittleChomp says...

Blue Exorcist and Fairy Tail are refreshingly good shounen animes. Both have entertaining casts, fun powers, and a main character with a lot of strength (and very little strategy). Plus, there's something about these shows- the mood is very similar. If you like one, I think you'll like the other too.

MFM says...

They kind of have the same "aura". Although different in their own way, you finish watching an episode of Blue Exorcist and Fairy Tail and the feeling you get is pretty much the same. They have a lot of action mixed with comedy. They are both about a guy with a some sort of power and the importance of friendship on overcoming the problems ahead. They are both very enjoyable and if you liked one, then you should at least give the other one a chance.

Both of these shows are about a group of friends who travel, and fight many battles together. They're shounen/adventure/comedies will similar humor and art styles. Fans of one might enjoy the other.

RinReborn27 says...

Both anime include big battles and superpowers, there also about friends and travelling. And both anime tell about what happens along the way to the friends when they travel. Plus the styles of both anime look a bit the same.

Fairy tail is much more of a regular comdey then the romance comedy/drama that Inuyasha falls under. While Inuyasha has a an over arching plot (gotta get those shards); Fairy tail so far keeps things too a 1-3 epsoide format. The characters are similar personality quirks as well.

Both are shonen anime series with a main character who's kindof a dolt, but is really strong and there for his friends when it counts. They also share a similar love triangle between the main male lead, the female lead, and his crush who has since died, but he is unable to forget about. The fight scenes are pretty epic, too, and both series place a strong emphasis on magic combat.

Cut3PupGrL says...

Both anime have character who'll goes to any length to protect their friends and family. The main characters in both anime are incredable strong and get stronger with each battle.  Both seem to have some hidden power locked inside and use that power to protect their friends. Although sometimes their battle seems impossible to win they manage to gather strength from their friends and win. 

alp2va says...

Both are fantastic Shonen anime with huge casts of colorful characters. Each focuses on the theme of constantly getting stronger and facing more and more challenging foes. Both have genuinely funny, heartwarming, and tense moments to them. Fans of either series will want to mimic their favorite characters whenever they use their special/signature moves!

Drasticc says...

If you like Fairy Tale, then this would be a natural alternative.  The protagonist displays special power and a extreme sense of naivity. While both animes show a great comedic timing, you will seldomly see boring moment since both have great doses of action.

BECAUSE THESE TWO IS VERY GREAT.THEY BOTH EXPRESS OF HOW IMPORTANT THE FRIENDSHIP IS.WHEN YOU WATCHED THIS YOU FEEL YOUR HOME.

ClovisMarca says...

Both anime series are by the same studio so visually they are similar. Both are about a group if people that take on odd jobs for normal citizens and both have a similar sense of humour which carries in throgh the scripting.

Amekurukara says...

If you liked the action and intense battles with some humor in Fairytail then you'll like Gintama as well. Not only does it have all these things but It's also a parody anime, meaning that you'll see a lot of references in it to other anime from the same time frame.

ferengi4 says...

Because they are both great animes, I wont lie though that Magi is better then fairy tail. But fairy tail is longer so you get more to watch but less the quality like you would get from most shorter animes.

sweetsformitsukuni says...

Both Magi and Fairy Tail include characters that form close family-like bonds and share action packed adventures and battles.

JonnySQ says...

Like Fairy Tail, Log Horizon also emphasizes upon an easy going storyline and pace. They also both have very entertaining but simple character styles, as well as some ongoing gags.

PapaGandalf says...

Both are set in a different world with fairy tale being set in a different universe entirely and log horizon being set inside a game.

both animes make great use of their characters and each of them has their own personality and strong lead protagonists, which both have a side which you'd probably not want to be on.

icv says...

apparently this is supposed to be 100 words but im too lazy. so like in the animes they are both trying to solve a conflict which has different ranks. so im not trying to spoil it but watch it, not that much ships compared to fairytail but there's some. so watch it okay? it's good, i cried in the first 2 episode.

BeepBeepTheWeeb says...

Both of these series take place in an interesting fantasy universe. Both have very well-rounded characters with clear and believable motivations. They also do a good job showing the development of friendships among the main characters.

Tehstool says...

Both main characters (Seth and Natsu) remind me of each other. They have very similar personalities.

The main difference would be that Radiant is more serious. There's still a decent amount of comedy, but the conflict is more emphasized at times.

Smartredhead says...

similarities:

- Typical magical shonen adventure - a naive and optimistic male MC who aims to become more powerful and learns how to use his magic - said MC also has  secret super powerful magic that others consider dangerous - a crew of characters that congregate around said MC - an overarching quest and lots of fighting

differences:

- while in FT sorcerers/wizards are generally respected and even praised, in Radiant all sorcerers are considered tainted beings and hunted down by the authorities;

- also Radiant has (thankfully) no silly/awkward rom-com fanservice elements which FT has plenty
