Discussion The Official Relationship/Pairing/Shipping Thread

[Axiomus]

Nah dude, Lissana and Natsu were always hanging out together until she died. Yea, only saw anime until Tenrou ended. I don't know if they're manga canon or not, they're not fillers. Lots of stuff, apart from what's in manga, gets added to anime.....because manga has constraints. Mashima works with the anime. They're canon as far as I'm concerned.
Natsu was never really close to Erza until the main series. Gray? Sure, I can understand that.

But they weren't. Natsu was always hanging out with Gray and Erza. At least in the manga. Erza made them take baths together. How is that not closer than Lisanna?

Mashima got more involved with the anime as time went on, so there was some stuff that he asked to put in the Oracion Seis arc. Eventually he got very involved with the filler arcs. But in the beginning, he was just following along like the rest of us. Now the fillers with Lisanna may very well be canon, but they weren't written by Mashima. So I give him a pass if he can't be bothered to pay attention to them.

Then he should've done it. Lissana realistically should've had a better shot anyway, was his closest friend for like 5 years, and it actually seemed like there was something going on between them, unlike Lucy case, whose 'moments' are basically glorified sexual assaults lmfao.

The way there was no interactions at all, between Lissana and Natsu, made zero sense. Should've just kept her dead if he didn't know what to do with her.

I agree with the last line. Should have had interactions, at the very least, even as friends. Also feels like Mashima is trying to force Nalu by having Natsu and LIsanna rarely interact.

You wouldn't understand romance if it slapped you in the face. A lot of confessions happen at the very end, some don't happen, but the romance existed and exists. It's obvious with NaLu in my view.

I know romance very well, it's why I know Nalu is nothing so far in terms of romance but everything in terms of bromance and friendship.

As are all of your posts.

At least I'm not making long paragraphs to convince Nalu shippers why Nali is bad.

So um yeah anyways back to the story reality, Nalu FTW

No, you just say a bunch of stuff that isn't true. Like Mashima trying to force NaLu by and having Natsu and Lisanna barely interact. The truth of the matter is, Mashima barely showed Natsu and Lisanna interacting in the manga before he brought back Lisanna too. Name one chapter where Natsu and Lisanna were shown together in the main series. Outside of the one chapter with Happy's egg, and Gildarts teasing Natsu right before the Edolas Arc, there's basically nothing to even suggest NaLi ever was a thing.

And my post wasn't even that long. But say whatever you want.

The only thing we know about natsu and lisanna's relationship is what kanna and Gildarts (like father like daughter) say. Gildarts teases about the relationship with lisanna in chapter 166 and kanna says that lucy's relationship is similar to lisanna's especially in her relationship with Natsu.

NaLu>NaLi, but NaLu is unimpressive in an absolute scale

zervis> Nalu =Jerza> Gruvia> Elfver> Gale

Spoiler

With Grey's statements to ch57, do you think that gruvia is confirmed or do you have to wait a little longer for the confirmed one because grey risks to deny what he said to juvia.

Spoiler

No, it's over, Gray must declare himself, it has lasted long enough for them.

If gray still denies it and we still have to wait for the spin off to end, for it to be canon, that would be just ridiculous.

Already I see Jubia joining the team after the arc, just to continue their development as a real couple this time.

Because the same, it's fine to put them in a relationship, but if jubia returns to the guild and we see her again that in the end it is useless for everything.

As much as she stays in the team and we see them as a real couple, but gray in shy mode, to take her hand, go for a walk, dine and everything.

This is what I expect for them.

And it is the same scenario for Jellal and Erza, he must join the team or stayed in the corner so that the couple can evolve and become true.

And at the same time for the nalu the things also advance.

Well, it is true whether you like it or not. You probably can't see it because you're way too blind as a Nalu fan.

NaLu>NaLi, but NaLu is unimpressive in an absolute scale

Exactly. All anyone has is "omg Natsu saves Lucy like he saves others!" and "they spend time with each other!!" Or my favorite, "HE DRAWZ NALU ALL THE TIME EVEN THO NOT IN MANGA!!"

 

[yutu]

I find he has more interaction between natsu and lucy than gajeel and levy and grey and jubia.

 

[Axiomus]

Yeah except....Hiro Mashima barely had Natsu and Lisanna interact in the manga before Lisanna was brought back. There's not even a single panel of the two interacting in their childhood outside of the Happy's egg side chapter before Lisanna was brought back in chapter 200.

 

[Joaoliveira18]

Gray is a piece of Trash in terms of love. Juvia deserves better, surely.

 

[M3J]

Well, Natsu and Lucy are the main characters after all.

Oh no, we for the most part agree there even though I still can't understand why I remember more interactions between them.

 

[yutu]

why do you think that has more interaction between them? May be because of the additions to the anime of the chapter covers, the bonus chapter, or even be fanfic who have added interactions to you unconsciously.

 

[Star Frost]

Probably because those interactions were filler in the anime and possibly fanfics

Yeah I don't understand why you remember things that aren't there either. We've had this conversation many times now. Most people would just re-read the chapters to double check the first time around. At this point, it's a choice.

[Gabo]

The current Saga I feel that it has focused more on showing other couples, such as what is the JeRza, the GruVia and part of the GaJeevy because we know that when this saga ends, these couples for professional reasons will have to be temporarily separated, since Juvia is not part of the mission and Jella will have to return to report the results of her own mission.

The NaLu feel that they are being reserved for when they reach the Ignia Saga or the Selene Saga, since one is Natsu's adoptive brother and the other is a stellar Goddess, so she could develop there, more because they they will have more screen time.

That's so true, I always felt so cringe about that type of fanboying.
