I have to say Gray and Lucy are probably the two characters that have gone through the most trauma in the whole series and they always find a way to keep pushing forward. For me that makes them the best from this series.

I’m pretty sure Gray joined the guild before Erza because I remember Erza being cold (ha) to Gray when he tried to introduce himself to her. Whichever the case, I really adored Gray and Erza’s relationship especially in early Fairy Tail. I wished we got to see more of it in later arcs before their relationship took a backseat to their other relationships.

Didn't know about people not liking him, from the get go he was one of my favs

Yes, Gray is definitely underrated and fascinating character to watch.

Gray was always my favorite character in the show. It kind of bugged me, because I felt he was really neglected in favor of Natsu and Erza, but when the stories were about Gray, they were often my favorite.

The things that Gray did to little baby me who didn't even know they were queer was woohoooo. I really appreciate the Gray & Lucy friendship and I love that (Except for Juvia and the weird moment in the Avatar arc) no one sees them as ever having anything romantic going on. They're just siblings/friends and I love them so much.

I used to love Natsu but after rewatching for some reason gray was my favourite, idk he just felt a lot more developed with so many emotional moments

Gray vs Invel is probably my personal favorite of his character moments. It is perfect example of why you absolutely should not fuck with Gray Motherfuckin' Fullbuster or the people he loves.

Fire fairies is such a good name for natsu team also gray stans assemble also Loki and Gray are totally ex's

when youre take the "power of friendship" part away, you get a Really interesting Magic System, that you not really see in Other Mangas that have Magic. For Me, Fairy tail is (again, besides Power of friendship) "Magic-System doing right" its not really Make Magic something "Special". Magic it's there and its incredible, but that's it. What makes the Make the Magic Special are the mages and how they use their magic with their limitations and rules

I know it’s all about Gray, but I’m just gonna say that Silver Fullbuster ( Gray’s Dad )is the hottest piece of meat on the market, fight me.

"I am Gruvia Trash." ONE OF US!!! ONE OF US!!!

Me, surprised to hear Gray is underrated simply because he's my favorite and I hype him up all the time

I could only watch some of this since I haven't caught up, but the main cast of FT is amazing, especially Gray. Their powers, looks, and arcs are simply amazing. I love my Scooby-Doo anime gang!

Really liked his story arc, been a fan for 10+ years hahaha hispersonality struck a great balance between being immature and logical, experienced If only they didn't make Juvia a stalker i wouldve actually liked Gruvia as a pairing She had a lot of potential as a character but sadly :"D

I’m gonna be honest, I’ve been Gruvia trash since the moment they first met lol. There was something about the storyline of him being the reason she sees the sun that just resonated with me. Like come on, that shit was so cute😭 He also got to be the one to tell her the message to live on, just like he went through in the Galuna arc since Juvia was literally ok with falling to her end at the end of their first fight. While I haven’t always enjoyed the stalker personality they gave Juvia (and tbh I would love if you’d consider giving juvia her own video because that girl also deserves way better), their contrasting personalities were always interesting to me. Quiet, cold gray contrasted with happy and sunny Juvia. Also, I’ve always loved the idea of them together because I’ve always liked gray as a character, and I love that he has someone who whole heartedly loves him for him. He’s never had that before. Yes he has the guild who are his family, but he has never had someone like him the way Juvia does. Erza had/has Jellal and Natsu had Lisana (and Lucy if Mashima would just make Nalu canon already😭). I don’t think he’s ever felt about someone the way he feels about Juvia, and I am a sucker for a slow burn which their relationship is the definition of one. Especially after the Avatar arc and the fight with Invel, it’s obvious that gray cares incredibly deeply for Juvia. She brings out his softer, caring side and he calms her down (sometimes lol). Water and ice are a great pair, and there was foreshadowing to them together in one of the earliest episodes (problems with water and women, gosh I wonder who that could be lol). I’ve always known they were going to be end game, and I’m not ashamed of my Gruvia love lol

to me, that choice, the choice to live, after being through hell. choosing happiness, finding the strength to carry your burden, and smile. that to me is fairy tail

Gray could like sell ice statue’s and make a living.

First off, if you like Gray or Fairy Tail as a whole, 1000% recommend reading Hiro Mashima's big story before Fairy Tail, Rave (or Rave Master in English speaking countries). Because before Gray, there was Musica. It's amazing and seriously, those who like or dislike Fairy Tail, read Rave because it'll please both sides. Secondly, I do feel the manga will sometimes highlight things better than the anime with still images. Like exhibit A, Gray has more muscle tone in manga than anime. Plus those panels of interactions better show the connections Gray has with others. Gray and Erza are the serious ones when stuff needs to get done, like people making Erza emotional sets Gray off. Gray and Wendy have little moments that give very big bro and lil sis energy. And Gray actually does have a good number of interactions with Lucy specifically, like legitimate shipping fuel that would make Juvia go crazy. Especially in the final arc as Gray supports Lucy in saving Natsu, doing something only she can do, instead of choosing the vengeance against E.N.D. he pledged and tried to follow through on moments before. And I think a very key moment of his Ice Make magic utility (and top tier manga panels) comes in the Edolas arc. While all the fights are going on and chasing of the key to fire the cannon is happening, it ends it in Gray's fight. Both sides need to use the key for their own purpose, but Gray basically ends up destroying it. There's the creeping off an "all is lost" moment and Gray simply tells them that they never lost anything. He uses his Ice Make magic to recreate the key out of ice and we know, even if it is lost, we're saved because Gray can always make another one. And I love Gray and Natsu's relationship. They talk about the other even when they're not around each other. Constantly, they'll make comparisons to the other while fighting an enemy about how they dealt with harder from each other or how they'll never hear the end of it if they lose to something like this. And also are the most confident in each other's strengths and capabilities, like unless it's villain of the arc, they don't interfere in personal stuff. And anytime they team up and actually fight together is so hype. End of Tartarus arc is just chef's kiss. (Not much to say about the Gray and Juvia relationship as I didn't get on board til the final arc. I thought it a gag until Tenerou Island and that's when I commended Juvia's feelings. But I thought Gray was either Bi or Ace, literally anyone or no one. It wasn't til the Invel fight I really was like okay I can be fine with this as endgame.) The sequel manga, Fairy Tail 100 Years Quest, still giving us some really good Gray moments too

I admit I felt the same way as you did about gray at the start of the series from this video and a further rewatch of ft I’ve come to really truly appreciate and enjoy his character as a whole and might I add imma a sucker for male fan service also if Weiss is our ice queen imma call gray our ice king

I thought the title said gay is an underrated icon😂

Juvia is best girl. I loved the Gruvia story. I'm interested in seeing your take on it.

i had the BIGGEST crush on gray as a weeb teen girl and this video made me feel so seen

What i really liked about Gray was that the times he had to fight against an enemy that had the upper hand he didn´t just suddenly win by the power of friendship or by yelling louder before doing the same attack that failed 10 times before but that now suddenly works. When fighting an ice wizard, like his own father, he hides a cannonbal inside his ice attack so when his father dissipates the ice, the cannonball kept going through his father´s chest. Or at the magic games, when facing that memory mage, who could memorize every spell he ever saw (this guy might be one of the most powerful wizards) he simply created a new spell right then and there. He is not just powerful, he is smart and resourceful

I just finished the arc it was beautiful and heartbreaking

I thought Grey joined first. I'm pretty sure he was there in Erza's Flashback for when she joined, I could ve wrong, as I haven't watched Fairy Tail in a while.

Great video on such a great character. He has a very creative and interesting power set and an awesome transformation as well. Gray is a strong willed character that definitely has some mental issues from his past trauma, but despite that he pushes through and tries to give his all for his fairy tail family to protect them and help them whenever he can. Juvia and Gray is definitely end game goals, Gray's trauma just makes it hard for him to take the next step in their relationship, but he will definitely take that step someday.

Gray is easily top 5 characters for me if not number2 Did you know that gray was originally the one to take down jellal for erza but hiro changed that and Also changed the possibility of gray ending with erza. Pretty sure if he did that alot would like him much more because let's be honest he was overshadowed alot in the first part of ft

I never have seen Gray being underrated? He was always in the top loved characters

Fairy Tail never reached its full potential with its characters and lore. Gray was my fave but his development as messyyyyy as the others.

Gray is underrated but honestly Jellal is more underrated as well.

Gray is definitely a great character his and Natsu rivalry is in my opinion a better version of naruto and Sasuke because they grew up as friends but when natsu was in his E.N.D form and him in his devil slayer form it was an intense fight but Erza did something sakura couldn’t stop them from fighting and crying seeing her shedding tears broke my heart fairy tail is far from perfect but its still a good show and will always be my favorite anime

Gray fullbuster is my favorite character

idk, gray has always been my favorite character from the get-go lol

Im a simp of Gray Fullbuster as you can tell by my pf

Gray the only Fairy Tail character that looks weird actually wearing clothes…

Finally someone talks about this incredible character, for me the best character in Fairy tail, and Gruvia is my favourite couple.

This type of videos are so helpful to my rewrite of fairy tail. I love Fairy Tail but these ideas make me wish the show was like that

OMG I THOUGHT MY FRIENDS AND I WERE THE ONLY ONES WHO THOUGHT GRAY AND LOKE WERE TOTALLY EXES

I hope you make a video about Juvia and her relationship with Gray.

I’m honestly surprised people didn’t like the galuna arc since I personally like it especially since it gave us one of Lucy’s first major W against Shelia and her mouse also gave us a great moment for Lucy and her Spirits Taurus and Aquarius which made this arc very memorable for me since I’ve always loved Lucy from the start of the series showing just how strong and determined of a wizard lucy truly is even from the get go which I felt added to the fact she was a runaway living on her own

I love his outfits too, especially the magic games as well!!! 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤

A Gray appreciation video? Thank you.

I watched this show when I was pretty young, 😅 I remember spending so much time at school with my friend sobbing over gray and proclaiming him (and era) as my special little gems. It's kinda funny rewatching and seeing exactly what attached me to these characters. I was also definitely a gray and natsu shipper😂 I love a good opposites attract, red and blue pairing but also gruvia

I always shipped gray and ezra. Gray is awesome

16:28 I need that video yesterday

Since your drifting from your winx Club content, I'd like to know if you've ever watched Ever after High and if you would maybe be willing to do a video on it?

1:42 or his lack of outfit, perhaps 2:15 yup

Gray and Wendy have spoken a bunch of times in several arcs.

I need an Aisha vs. Gray, Ice-making vs. Morphix-making battle analysis STAT!

Honestly it was his constant stripping that made me not like him as much as the others it was a continuous running gag that got old real fast but other than that Gray is a decent guy

I’m still waiting for that grivia video

I'm surprised you enjoy Gruvia. I liked it at first because it wasn't serious, Juvia made me laugh and Gray got more screen time. But it really soured on me the more serious we (the audience) are meant to take it. It's very clear that Gray is not into Juvia for a majority of the story, like harshly rejecting her after the GMG. But she weasels herself in his life time and time again. My interpretation of Gruvia is largely influenced by Mnemosyne's Elegy (amazing fanfic writer), who characterizes it as abusive and shows a side of Gray (the self-sacrificing one) that's likely to get into an unhappy relationship with her because he doesn't know how to reject her anymore. Very interesting stories, if you have the time

So i never watched fairy tail but i watched winx especially you're content about it and... It feels like he would be the son of musa (and maybe riven but we hope not)

omg ugh yes

Your favorite Gray outfit is my lesst favorite. I can't stand those sleeveless arm glove things. Gray a good lad, definitely the angsty one with a warm heart within the cold.

thought we all knew this happy gets edolas

omg finally someone else who likes Gruvia, finally. for the longest time it was just ship bait for me, but omg did it develop well. that scene in the final season- when i read it in the manga, g o d did it tear me apart. absolutely love them

Would love videos about the other Fire Fairies too!

This is great. If you wanted could you do a video on wendy

I also see Gray fighting Natsu all the time is a coping mechanism because he actually cares for him but deep down he beleives Natsu will get himself killed like everyone else he loved because of his reckless nature.

gray came first in the guild then erza and then natsu though when you look at age then yes erza is the oldest then gray or is natsu the same age ... mmm cant remember

I can’t unhear gray as twice bc they have the same English va

I would love a commentary and talking videos about My little pony : FiM A revisit to this unique series could been amazing too ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Given how much you like creative ways of using powers I have to ask if you've ever seen One Piece? And if so what do you think of it?

15:58 Good god why are her arms so short

Gray stans rise? More like Gay stans rise❤

Like that one time where gray sided with Daphne

I feel like gray has a lot of potential but Fairy Tail is really is a shonen show for teenager so I understand it not supposed to great writing, logic, or anything great but man that show made me hate the power of friendship trope so much. It's the reason why I enjoy jkk

Pls do a s8 commentary

As an Ezra bitch this is day 2 of me asking for an Ezra video

LeOOn? Why do you say it like that 🥲

I relay liked Gray up until the third time he tried to use Ice Shell then his character was lost on me

Okay, over the years i just don't like ft as much. It is enjoyable and nostalgic sure, but nothing more. I do however like some characters, their magic and designs. Including gray and lucy. And i still like graylu, platonic or romantic, doesn't matter. Just a great relationship with good chemistry and nice interactions. I think it would be interesting to have gray in natsu's place🤔 Anyway, nice video. I really enjoy your commentary Also, another tiny thing.. I can't stand gruvia😅

Gray came into fairy tail first, and erza is second and last is natsu

The filer of gray working with the weirdo who made the fake dragon is one of the worst filers to me gray felt so out of character

I love Gray but Natsu is my boy.

Me gray?

Actually gray joined fairy tail first then erza and natsu joined fairy tail last.

thought it said gay for a moment lol

Watch One Piece you will enjoy it a lot

honestly Gray's fashion style is just transmasc and gay goals lol

Bro the iced shell drama got old very quickly. The nice juke to Grey choosing to live in the tartaros arc was refreshing enough, but then him going back on that and redoing the same crap vs Zeref was just tiring. There's more I could discuss, but I don't wanna type that much. Grey is B tier
