Is Fairy Tail 100 Year Quest A Sequel
Fairy Tail: 100 Year Quest - Sequel? Or Something...Else?
Let's talk about Fairy Tail: 100 Year Quest. Is it a sequel? That's the question everyone's asking, right? My answer might surprise you.
I'm going to say something controversial. Buckle up!
Okay, here it is: It's more like really long, super-sized DLC. Think of it as "Fairy Tail: GOTY Edition" with extra frosting. Deal?
Sequel? Nah. More Like...Fairy Tail 2.0
Don't get me wrong, I love Fairy Tail. I cried when it ended (don't judge). But 100 Year Quest feels like a continuation, not a rebirth.
The characters are the same lovable goofballs. The magic is still flashy and friendship-powered. No major glow-ups or sudden personality shifts.
Think about it: A true sequel usually shakes things up, right? New protagonist, different setting, a completely fresh start. 100 Year Quest is basically just "more Fairy Tail".
The Case for "DLC"
Hear me out on the DLC thing. DLC adds to an existing game. It gives you more content: new levels, characters, storylines.
That's exactly what 100 Year Quest does. It takes the world and characters we already know and love. Then, adds a whole new adventure.
It's like buying an expansion pack for your favorite video game. More of what you already enjoyed, but bigger and bolder. That's the vibe I get.
The Power of Friendship...and Marketing
Of course, there are new elements. New characters and enemies definitely exist. We have the Aldoron dragons and the Water God Dragon arc to deal with!
But the core of Fairy Tail remains the same. It is still all about the nakama. It's about friendship prevailing in the face of danger.
And let's be honest, "sequel" probably sounds better for marketing purposes. It generates more buzz than "Super Awesome Extended Edition," right? Makes sense.
My (Probably Wrong) Conclusion
So, is Fairy Tail: 100 Year Quest a sequel? Technically, yes. Does it feel like a full-blown sequel? In my humble, possibly misguided opinion, no.
It's Fairy Tail, just amplified. Like they cranked the dial to eleven.
Think of it as a celebratory encore. The band played all their hits and then decided to give us one more for the road. So let's enjoy the show!
Ultimately, does it really matter? We get more Fairy Tail. More Natsu, Lucy, and the whole gang!
Whether it's a sequel, DLC, or a magical unicorn disguised as a manga, I'm happy to have it. Who cares what we call it!
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to reread it for the fifth time. No shame!
