3 Things You Didn’t Know About The Main Cast Fairy Tail

3 Things You Didn’t Know About The Main Cast Fairy Tail

Natsu, Gray, Lucy, and Erza are all main characters in Fairy Tail, but there are still many things you might not know about them. Below you’ll find out more than a few details you may not have known about the core four, including scrapped ideas by Mashima.

Tower Of Heaven Was Meant To Be Far Different

The moment pictured above wasn’t supposed to be a dream, it was meant to be the reality. That’s right, everything up to Erza remembering her time as a slave was all going to be a dream of the future. While it’s a cool concept, doing the whole “it’s all a dream” sequence rarely works out well. They end up wiping away all the connections made before the reveal, more often than not, negating everything that came before it.

It was meant to reference an old Chinese tale called Dream of a Butterfly. Remnants of the idea work their way into chapter 75 of the manga, small butterflies appearing in Erza’s dream.

Erza Was Made Up On The Fly

This is one of the least surprising things on this list for anyone who’s watched the show. Not because it’s a well-known fact because it isn’t, but due to how many of her fights went. There were many a fight where it felt like she pulled an armor or weapon out of her ass that just so happened to be perfect for that situation.

The fact Mashima was just equipping backstory and magic to her as the story went along makes all sorts of sense. He’s on record as saying he either had her go with the flow of the story or made up a plot detail on the spot. With how good the Tower of Heaven was, it’s crazy that it was mostly improvised.

Erza Looked Like An Amazon

Above is the concept for what Erza was originally supposed to look like. While we all love how the finished product turned out, this makes Erza look even more badass. It also fits in with her personality better than the one Mashima decided on too. That strict and overbearing persona she has just oozed from these two pictures.

One problem would have been how her magic would have worked as a more survivalist amazon rather than the knight she was in the show. Equip magic flows far better with someone who is almost always in armor.
