There are also the more general, recurring hints, beginning with the most obvious: Natsu has seen Lucy naked several times and hasn't exactly shied away. And during the Eclipse arc, the anime's 15th Opening showed a notable NaLu moment in which Natsu went berserk after Future Lucy was killed, specifically promising to protect Lucy's future, not all of Fairy Tail's. In a filler episode, Natsu and Lucy went to each other's house to wait for the other and, despite being surrounded by friends they could hang out with, felt a pang of loneliness without the other there. That points to a special, almost telepathic, bond between the duo. In the Phantom Lord arc, Lucy called out for Natsu when she was falling from the Phantom Tower, knowing, somehow, that Natsu would save her. You could honestly write an entire book about all of these instances of romantic tension, but we'll stick to some of the more significant ones. Natsu was the one who invited Lucy to join the Fairy Tail Guild, and from that scene forward, they had an immediate connection. Lucy and Natsu share many charged moments, providing plenty of evidence that the two care for each other romantically.

#Lucy manga fairy tail series#
Lucy and Natsu, the two main protagonists, are Fairy Tail's main ship (known to fans as "NaLu"), but Mashima has always kept the jury out on their true relationship.Īlthough the original manga and anime series have ended, fans are still hoping for a NaLu confirmation in future Fairy Tail projects. Fairy Tail, which primarily followed the lives of Lucy, Natsu, Erza and Gray (with Wendy and Gajeel added later), was great at organically developing their relationships. Unlike Naruto (with the exception of Shikamaru and Temari), the romantic relationships, in particular, felt real and earned. Part of the series' charm was the large roster of vivid characters, and how distinct each wizard was. The popular shonen manga/anime enchanted fans with its rich, magical world and proved it was able to keep up with other hard-hitting shonen titles such as Naruto, Bleach and One Piece. Unlike Naruto, Boruto doesn’t yell what he feels, which is the biggest difference. Despite his laid-back attitude, he is very diligent. Conversely, Boruto’s upbringing has also been different than that of his father’s: Boruto’s family is always there for him, and he likewise has many friends, and his acquisitions came easily and naturally to him from a combination of prodigious talents and nurturing parents.After a successful 11-year run, including a popular anime adaptation, Hiro Mashima's Fairy Tail manga ended in 2017. However, compared to his father at his age, Boruto is more refined and crafty, seemingly knowing all the shortcuts, as well as more mature in knowing how the world works. From then on, he vowed never to anger her again.īoruto is loud, energetic, and stubborn not unlike his father even possessing a verbal tic, “dattebasa” ( だってばさ), similar to Naruto’s “ dattebayo” and his paternal grandmother’s “(da)ttebane” ( (だ)ってばね). Fearful of what an attack that could knock-out his father would do to him, Boruto tried to run from Himawari, although she easily located him hiding in a closet. Naruto, sensing her killing intent, arrived and shielded Boruto, and was knocked out in the process due to the attack landing on one of his chakra points. When the toy’s head was ripped off in the ensuing tug-of-war, Himawari awakened her Byakugan and attacked Boruto in her anger, despite his vehement apologies. On the day that Naruto was to be inaugurated as the Seventh Hokage, his sister Himawari wanted to bring her panda toy to the ceremony, but Boruto, fearing that he would end up carrying it, tried to take it away from her.
