I was really surprised at him going back to the Graylu tease cuz having Gray there unlike Loke (who is single and flirts with Lucy consistently) really goes against the stuff Mashima was saying about Juvia and Gruvia. You can bet if Natsu was in the position with Lucy, Erza, and Lisanna.... WWIII would occur on twitter/tumblr/etc.
I havent check with the comments since earlier this morning. I know there are nalu fans happy but are gruvia fans sharing their displeasure or the gruvia haters praising hiro on twitter?

Not a fan of this twitter sketch either tbh. I don't see the point teasing dead ships (Lolu & Graylu) especially after the manga ended.

Also I kinda thought this sketch was a "expectations vs reality" situation.

The manga finished with Gruvia being canon and he just posted a Gruvia sketch from a little while. Today's sketch wasn't any tease for these ships, It was showing the difference between Nalu and the rest of Lucy's ships. Lucy simply likes Natsu that what the sketch is saying.

With natsu she is waiting, with gray and loki it is remote XD.

And with Plue his spades, damn nose xD.

But again, with this kind of image mashima confirms the nalu.

Y'all shippers can take chill tbh. It's not like Hiro made Lucy kiss Loki or Gray. A simple tease shouldn't be end of all lol. Hiro gets harassed by shippers too much.

It was the right decision to make by drawing the 3 ships of Lucy all together without excluding any of them so we could see Lucy's reaction in each. He drew Lucy before thinking of choosing Natsu or Gray or Loke as a way to display Lucy's possible ships. Now everyone knows that Lucy likes Natsu the most and it's very important to end it because he start it. With that being said, ppl still can delude themselves as they want nothing would change the fact, The sketch is clearing pointing for Lucy's interest and she does like Natsu the most. Regardless i didn't see how it can harm a canon ship in anyway. Gruvia is already canon, Loke is a celestial spirit, there is no chance for the dead ships to comeback not to mention Lucy's choice.

I guess we should know more about Natsu's side, Yeah! romance ain't his best deal but his actions says a lot about it however it's not enough for me, I want to see from Natsu's side more.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but Mashima mentioned during the recent interview that the drawings on his Twitter have nothing to do main plot nor are they used to confirm ships their just drawed for fun and for the readers to remember the characters. Which is why Mashima won’t draw characters for his new series before he starts it which is why he mentioned that he already has said characters on his mind or something like that.

That when the series was still running, He already confirmed the ships in the interview. Anyways the main plot says Lucy cares for Natsu the most, Nothing new was added.

thank you, come again.

While this is true, Mashima does get harassed too much by shippers. I kinda think he likes it. His activity on his Twitter always increases when he posts shipping stuff and I think he posts controversial shipping stuff (Jerza where Erza is naked; Nalu in chains, this pokey thing, anything Gruvia) cuz it makes everyone more frantic. When the manga was on going he kept to more cute ship moments.

Now that he doesn't have a series his imagination is running wild :D I swear he has FT ****** around somewhere.

Lucy is smart, She picked the purest guy. :hearts
But bad boys with experience are fun ;) We didn't see him reacting to the magic so so knows. Although he acts like a virgin.

You post a lot of drawings on social media. Are the fans supposed to take these as canonical, or are they just something you do for fun?

Those pictures that I post on my social media are just my doodles and have nothing to do with the main plot of the story. Of course I want people to remember these characters, but also it fun for me to draw these. I have the next set of characters in my mind, but I won't be able to post those on my social media, so that's why I post those doodles on my social media.
Nah, she's right. It doesn't have anything to do with the actual story, regardless if it was ongoing or ended. I think you guys are just looking at it too deep again. Why let anything that's not in the main story or what Hiro says isn't canon affect your way of thinking... I don't get it lol. FT is big on family and friendship, Hiro gonna draw whoever with whoever.

Sometimes I feel Mashima loves to see fans bicker over his ships.That's why I feel he give slight hints of the ships and and let the fans discuss.

Regarding canonicity until Hiro shows the ships being canon in the manga or he explicitly says so it cannot be regarded as canon however sad it may be.Excluding Gajeel-Levy and Zeref-Mavis Hiro's treatment of romance in FT is pretty bad.Unlike in Rave Master where Romance was excellently done.In FT he only left hints .

Nah he said it before on his twitter when the series was still running however mentioning that now is pointless since everything is settled. Anyways i'm not complaining because he drew Lucy with loke and gray, You can see how she is annoyed with them and how she is comfortable with Natsu.

thank you, come again
