Discussion The Official Relationship/Pairing/Shipping Thread

[M3J]

It won't be Ur/Ultear. I think that's very unlikely. Silver or another color like others have said are more probable. At least Silver had a connection with BOTH Gray and Juvia.

And well, hopefully they have a boy so there's no love rival issue at all. Hopefully. It would be fitting for Gray to train his boy.

Ur or Ultear makes sense as well given the effect they had on Gray and indirectly on Juvia. Without Ultear, Gray would have been dead and GMG would have ended in too many losses. Without Ur, there'd be no Gray the ice mage.

thats why I hate Juvia to be honest I mean cmon

Come on who?

And Natsu first

[Nemispelled]

I agree with @Angiecakes1990's perspective on Juvia and her relationship with Gray.

I don't like that kind of characteristic in a person either. But, then again, that's why I ship Gray x Mira out of all the ships and crack pairings. I would much prefer that kind of dynamic than an obsessive one.

And I especially agree about the "love rival" personality being a bit unnecessary and somewhat annoying.

Just my opinion though.

 

[Nemispelled]

I can see Natsu and Lucy getting swarmed with children. Lucy would be running around the house trying to keep track of all of them, and the boys would all gang up to tackle Natsu. Natsu would see them as his "army" to take over the world with, and Lucy would just be busy trying to keep them out of trouble.

For Gray and Juvia.... I always imagined that they would have a daughter, and Juvia would go all "love rival" whenever Gray dotes on her.

Best kid would have to be Elfman and Evergreen's though.

I completely agree with @Axiomus on this one, by the way.

Elfman and Evergreen would definitely create the best kid... that is neither man nor woman. The father is all about "manly stuff" and the mother wants nothing more than to be "The Queen of the Fairies".

Their extreme preferences towards "manly" and "ladylike" qualities would contain too much bias that it will eventually overload the offspring..

Which will ultimately result in a baby looking like Mira's imagination.


Though, Gray and Mira's child would at least have to be the 2nd best then... if that were the case.

Keep the conversation civil. It's okay to have an opinion, but don't bait each other with statements like 'you're not a true fan'. I would refrain from bashing characters as well.~ Axiomus

Lucy has an interest in Gray, Loke and Gajeel. This was stated in the official journal

Actually, the Fairy Tail magazine never said anything about Lucy's interests per se. They just listed the possible candidates. These weren't really Lucy's opinions so much as speculation on what may happen.

 

[Angiecakes1990]

thankyou moderator it was starting to get out of hand anyways xD my other main couple I ship in the series is Jerza

 

[Raven]

I'm not ganging anyone here, I'm not supporting any party here and I don't care about any ship but Nalu but i don't mind other ships to happen, Hating characters is a different story. Because you hate a character doesn't mean to talk shit about it in a forum that contains fans of every character. That is like stealing certain fans comfort.

Juvia is a great character and from those characters that you can easily love, Her character is what making her unique and her humor is accepted.. I never get disgusted or get annoyed from her attitude. Her character is so real and you can find this character in real life.. She represent true love in Fairy tail with her jealous.

Saying that she jealous from her child is just... "eh" what the actual fuck?!

 

[Angiecakes1990]

anyways Jerza is cute I don't mind seeing his backstory in a spin off and where hes from too
love how he kept apologizing to Erza when she falls on him lol a few chapters back

Okay mod, but you deleted a relevant-on topic comment I made so I am going to post it again now.

Come on who?

I don't like it. I want Gray to move on from his past, so those names scream regression to me. I cannot see him naming his child after Ultear, she didn't have as much of an impact on Gray compared to Ur and Silver. Best case scenario: their kid is named after a color like others said before.

 

[Jko]

How much someone wants to bet Gray and Juvia's kid will be named a color? If so, it has to be "White". What other color is closest to gray or silver?

• Stormcloud
• Platinum
• Sonic (Silver) Fullbuster
• Argent
• Manatee
• Stone
• Hoar (lol)
• Timberwolf
• Cinereous
• Charcoal (lol)
• Ash (lol)
• Arsenic

All these names are shades of Gray. First kid they have is probably going to be named Silvia or Silver.

Stormcloud, Platinum, Arsenic, Manatee, Timberwolf, and Cinereous all sound like pretty sick names tho.

White just sounds like something Sting would just munch on as well . Don't need Sting getting locked up for trying to eat a kid

"Shiro" is white in Japanese (or "Howaito" for the English inspired version) . But it's also possible the kid could be named a color in another language as well. Juvia is lluvia in Spanish which means rain, if I remember correctly. But their child won't be named after the weather in my opinion.

 

[Axiomus]

I can see Igneel, Layla, and Jude being names for the NaLu children.
For Gruvia children, I think it should be a colour or something to do with the weather. Maybe "Shade"?

 

[darkenedreality]

While on the subject, Gray's magazine strongly implied he had feelings for Juvia. In both "love" and "Gray & Everyone" sections. It also friendzoned Graylu, lol. Said Gray and Lucy are just friends and nothing developed. Don't think I need to touch upon Juvia's since that should be obvious.

As for Lucy the title explains it all "Fantasy" Boyfriend. Gajeel was even on there for crying out loud. There's only one realistic option and that's Natsu. Speaking of him, he had two options in his: Lucy and Lisanna. The magazine also states he's not interested in romance though.

I don't really consider these canon as they weren't written by Mashima, but he obviously at the very least approved them and they are by people who had good insight on the series at the time.

Gray can name his kids Ur and Ultear and still move on from his past. Naming his kids after important people in his past doesn't mean he hasn't moved on, it just means he's paying them tribute or something.

It doesn't make sense for Mashima to name their child after a character that already existed in the story/universe especially one that's still alive.

It makes more sense for the child to be name after a color just like Gray and Silver. You want the character to have their own identity in a manga, not be named after someone else. Even Naruto and Boruto are different yet similar. Boruto was named after Neji without actually giving him his name. Again, if the kid is named after anyone it would be Silver who has a connection with both Gray and Juvia. Ur and Ultear did not have that.

 

[petto]

Is Gray talked to Ultear except for the battle? I understand she is the daughter of Ur and therefore has privileges, but they are absolutely strangers to each other. It only seems to me wrong to call the child the name of the one who was the killer? He may repeat the fate.

how does Ur not have a connection with Juvia when without Ur, Gray would not have been a mage or met Juvia? Again, may not be direct but there's still a connection.

 

[darkenedreality]

That logic is so flawed. You might as well say Juvia is connected to everyone who shaped Gray, including his parents because without them he wouldn't even exist. Would he name his child after Lyon or Natsu? No.

You countered yourself. Juvia has no direct connection with Ur. She's never met her. But she HAS met Silver. He had spoken to her, asked if she was Gray's woman, and requested she take care of Gray. Hence why if a Gruvia child was named after anyone, it would be HIM. Not Ur. Regardless I don't see the child being named after anyone, because like I said in the post you quoted, the kid will have his/her own indentity.

For the final time, I hope you can see why naming the child after a color like Gray and Silver to continue the tradition makes tons more sense.

Is Gray talked to Ultear except for the battle? I understand she is the daughter of Ur and therefore has privileges, but they are absolutely strangers to each other. It only seems to me wrong to call the child the name of the one who was the killer? He may repeat the fate.

Bingo. They wouldn't name their child after a stranger. I don't think Juvia and Ultear have spoken, and as you pointed out, she attempted to kill Juvia.

 

[Jko]

Hmm wouldn't call Ultear a stranger when Gray seemed very chummy with her. She has saved him two times and gave him the motivation to go on, and rid himself of the fear of Deliora. Gray definetely saw Ultear as a sister. He cried and fell into a depressive state after he found out what happened to her in the GMG Arc.

Ultear and Ur are perfectly acceptable names for their future child. Juvia doesn't have to meet Ur for Gray to name the child after her. Ur was Gray's biggest influence in life so it makes sense. Could name their daughter after a type of blue color in remembrance of Ur as her soul lives within the sea. Juvia would have no qualms with Gray naming their children either as she is very very submissive towards Gray's will.

Personally think one of their kids will be called Stormcloud as it is a mixture of Juvia and Gray (Stormclods cause rain and is name of a shade of gray).

Not really something to harp over tho. Hiro might give them an entire different name for kicks. It's up to him to decide if they even have children lol.

 

[darkenedreality]

I've already explained why naming the child Ur/Ultear doesn't fit. Many people have had major influences on both Gray and Juvia but that doesn't mean their kid will be named after them. However yes, Hiro will most likely name them something we didn't think of. Aka, their own name and not someone else's.

I think it's extremely likely all the couples will have kids, because that's usually how shounen tends to end. Also because Gajevy certainly won't be the only ship with kids (they have confirmed twins apparently). That would be rather unfair, especially due to the fact it's a side ship. Nalu and Gruvia are the mains.
