FAIRY TAIL Manga Creator Hiro Mashima Thanks His Fans As The Manga's Final Chapter Is Released
This past week saw the final chapter of the Fairy Tail manga released in Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen Magazine. But is there more story on the way?
Fairy Tail's Hiro Mashima has taken to Twitter to thank fans for their support across the last 11 years as the manga's 545th and final chapter was released in Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen Magazine on Wednesday.
Per ANN, Mashima's Tweet reads, "Today I received a lot of messages from various people. Thank you so much for everything up to now! Fairy Tail has become a work loved around the world, and before I knew it, it became something that is not only mine. So I also want to thank Fairy Tail. I am who I am now because of Fairy Tail. Thanks, Fairy Tail!"
But is the manga really over? The last panel in the final chapter revealed Natsu, Lucy, Happy and co. about to embark on a 100 Year quest! Surely that implies there's more Fairy Tail stories to be told. Previously, Mashima has stated that even though the manga is ending, it doesn't feel as if Fairy Tail is over as there's still a new anime season to work on and there's still two more volumes left to assemble the manga's remaining chapters.
