Juvia is the TRUE villain of FT

Yeah, that’s right, I said what everyone else was thinking, but didn’t have the guts to say. You’re welcome.

Maybe you didn’t even know you were thinking it, like I didn’t until today. I just woke up this morning, and had this epiphany (or maybe it was gas, it’s hard to tell). I didn’t even have to think too hard about it, to know it was true.

Juvia is evil incarnate. That just sounds right, doesn’t it? It makes sense.

Let’s face it, she stalks, she threatens, she’s violent, aggressive, harassing, obsessive, and extremely selfish. How anyone could not see her for the awful character she is, is beyond me.

Now, I’m sure those naive few (you poor, poor souls) who would take issue with my immensely factual statements, would like to see me clarify my claims. No problem. I don’t usual go looking for facts to back up my truths, because my gut tells me they are undeniable, and completely supported by manga events. But for you? I’ll make an exception, because unlike Juvia? I’m a good person.

Man, where to even start, right? There are so many incidents involving the awfulness of this character. 

I know! Let’s start with the Avatar arc. That arc was basically an advertisement for how problematic Juvia truly is. Thanks for that, Mashima. ^__~

So, Juvia was living with Gray. And we all found out the truth of that little scenario:

EXPOSED JUVIA. That’s right, this little stalking, obsessive brat actually forced herself into Gray’s home and refused to leave! And then you expect us to feel bad for her when Gray goes off for six months? Please. So deserved. HE DIDNT EVEN WANT HER THERE. Look at her face in the background. She’s LAUGHING at Gray’s suffering!

Despicable! People try and brush this off as Gray being embarrassed about the public teasing, but we ALL know the tru-

Ok, well that? Means nothing. We all know how nice of a guy Gray is. He probably felt SORRY for her ( I don’t know why, though. She deserves none of your pity, Gray!!!). It’s obvious this moment is incredibly forced and completely OOC! I’m sure Mashima was holding an illustrated gun to Gray’s head to get that bit of dialogue out of him. As for that “answer,” IF it’s about Juvia’s feelings (which I DOUBT), we all know what he’ll say already, because he’s said it once before (and of course the ball of crazy ignored him):

That’s right! So I personally look forward to his “answer.” Bring on the Juvia tears mwahahaha!

Anyway, back to Avatar, where Gray left Juvia behind for 6 months without a word (LOL!).

So now she’s all depressed, and making it rain all over the village, driving everybody else away. So typical. So selfish. Thanks for ruining everyone else’s lives as usual, Juvia! Just cause you have an unhealthy obsession with some guy, doesn’t mean everyone else around you needs to suffer for it, jeeze.

And what did Juvia do during this time Gray was away? Absolutely nothing, obviously, which just goes to show how unhealthy this “relationship” is. Juvia became a depressed mess, and a shell of herself. Clearly she wasn’t working, let alone eating for those six months, and how she survived is anybody’s guess (ZombieJuvia?!). But what’s worst, is that she claims to “love” Gray, but she just sat around waiting for him! What a joke! If you’re really so worried, like you claim, why don’t you go out and sear-

Oh… so she wasn’t just waiting around, and wasting away, but actually looking, but this just goes on to prove my next point instead! If Juvia had been searching for him every day, surely once Gray finally pops up, she will be FURIOUS. Because as we all know, Juvia’s biggest weapon is INTIMIDATION.

Ah ha! What did I tell you?! Look at Gray’s face! He’s terrified! And as usual, what does Juvia do?! That’s right, ATTACKS a woman for DARING to get near Gray. No love rivals allowed!!! She is so insane! Surely Gray will be devastated that Juvia hurt this new friend and potential lover-

Ok, so she was a villain, who Gray also attacked. BUT! My point still stands, as we are about to see here, where Juvia is aggressively keeping Lucy away from Gray:

I know that it looks like they are just chatting normally, but that’s just Juvia being shrewder than usual in her approach. Besides, even the arrow is pointing at the next victim of her madness!

We still don’t know if Frosch is a girl or a boy, but it makes no difference! Juvia hates all love rivals equally! Gray hugging Frosch? No way is Juvia going to put up with that, and of course she doesn’t! She has already declared it a love rival! So typical, so Juvia. But now we must fear for poor Frosch!

Look how genuinely terrified Frosch is at Juvia’s reaction. Look as the little exceed flees from Gray at Juvia’s intimidating stare-

Oh… well, I’m sure both Frosch and Gray felt Juvia’s wrath in the very next panel that Mashima forgot to draw in his haste. It’s a weekly series after all. Things get mistakenly left out all the time. We forgive you, Mashima!

In any case, the moment of truth is upon us. So, what did Juvia do when she found out Gray left her for 6 months on a secret mission under Erza’s orders? Surely she was furious! Surely she was declaring Erza as her love rival! Surely she was forbidding Gray to ever leave her side agai-

….

Huh… W-well, it doesn’t matter! I’m sure Juvia gave Gray an earful when they got back to their home!  That’ll teach Gray from daring to ever leave Juvia’s side  to go off with other females without Juvia’s permission! Not that he has any other female friends left, of course. Juvia saw to that ohohoho…

WHAT ARE YOU DOING GRAY?!!!!!!! Leaving again with your team?! With Erza, Lucy, and Wendy in company?! You should know better than that!!!!!

You can even see Juvia’s anger is boiling just below the surface at being stuck with people who aren’t Gray!

I don’t even know why Juvia logically reacts like this. I guess it’s just her crazy obsession that makes her so possessive! Otherwise I see no other reason why she would want to be near Gra-

Ok, so what if Gray’s father wanted Juvia to take care of Gray?! And so what if that’s hard to do if Gray keeps mysteriously disappearing under dangerous circumstances! That means NOTHING! Juvia doesn’t think about anyone but HERSELF. That’s a FACT.  

And Juvia will surely terrorize all those girls, and give Gray a piece of her mind when he gets back-

Mashima, why must you off-panel all of the things that prove my points?! This is very vexing!!!! >_<

No matter! Juvia has forced herself on Gray LOADS of times before. Gray has his own team, sure, but Juvia is a stalker, remember? She doesn’t need to join Gray’s team to keep an eye on him. Not that she lets Gray go on missions with his team anymore, of course. That’s the whole point of Juvia isolating Gray from all of his female friends. He’s not allowed to be alone with any of them ever since Juvia joined the guil-

Gray is away on another mission without Juvia, surrounded by his team of potential love rivals, and people Juvia has surely already isolated Gray from?! What is this sorcery?!  I’m sure we will see Juvia following closely behind at some point. Hold on while I peruse the manga so that I can find those panels of Juvia stalking Gray, that so often appear….

*five minutes later*

Oh, they are in here. That arc went on for over three months. I’m pretty sure she popped up at some point…

*ten minutes later*

Ok, I see the arc is winding down… where are you hiding, Juvia?!

*15 minutes later*

Ah ha! A hot springs scene with Gray surrounded by naked love rivals?! I don’t think so! Bitches about to get water sliced. Where you be, Juvia?!

*arc finishes*

…. That’s fine. You know why? Because I’m sure I remember that when Gray got back to the guild, Juvia went off on all of them! That’s what it was! Just you wait-

Doesn’t matter. considering how flushed Gray is I bet those breads were poisoned (Juvia has tried to drug Gray before. Remember that very canon love potion episode? BECAUSEI DO). I’d be worried if I were you, Elfman. Just saying…

In any case, forget about Juvia not letting Gray socialize with other women, and no longer having any female friends. We know that’s true, because I said so.

(And Cana doesn’t count. With all those boobs she gropes she’s practically one of the guys.)

Also, can we talk about Juvia’s selfishness. because she IS. Incredibly so. Especially when it comes to Gray. She constantly dismisses his feelings time and time again. Remember that creepy 413 Days Omake? *shiver* That was a prime example of Juvia’s selfish behavior. Gray is feeling down on the anniversary of Ur’s death, and Juvia DARES trying to impose some bullshit anniversary on him, and expecting him to be happy? WOW. And then when she found out why Gray rejected her stupid gift (a scarf? For an ice mage? Seriously? As if anyone would ever give an ice mage a gift like tha-

The point is. Juvia clearly didn’t care the least about Gray’s own feelings, as we can see he-

I’m sure that was just her trying to save face. That’s all! Can’t look bad in front of Erza. Juvia is so two-faced. Anyway, the fact is, Juvia ruined Gray’s day. Thanks, Juvia, for making Gray even more miserabl-

Well…He’s FROWNING, isn’t he?! And I’m sure that smile afterwards is just to cover up his frown on the inside. Poor Gray. You’re not even allowed to be sad when in mourning because of Juvia.

And this wasn’t the last time Juvia tried to rain on Gray’s sadness parties. Oh no, because after the GMG, when Gray was upset about Ultear, guess who had a problem with it again? Oh that’s right. JUVIA. 

And of course she didn’t care how he was feeling. I’m sure her worried expression is just her frustration over Gray not speaking to her OBVIOUSLY.

Sorry we all can’t be happy in other people’s misery like you, Juvia! Thankfully, Gray gave her a piece of his mind this time…

Man, Gray is such a nice guy. Putting a smile on his face, and lying to spare Juvia’s feelings like that.You are so lucky, Juvia. No one else would put up with your crap!

And Gray has put his life on the line multiple times for Juvia! And how has she repaid him? By being horribly selfish, of course. that’s the point I’m making, after all. It’s not like she’s ever really done anything of value for him-

Ok, so she may have protected him/saved his life a couple of times. But big deal? Who hasn’t saved lives in this series? That’s nothing special!

The point is, Juvia doesn’t really care about Gray. As we saw at the end of the Tartarus arc. She knows Gray just lost his dad. And she knows it’s her fault (MURDERER). And yet, she follows (stalks, stalks, stalks) him all the way to his parents grave, where he’s in mourning, and tries to saddle him with her guilt. How self-absorbed can one person get, I ask you?! She doesn’t care that he’s hurting. All she thinks about is her own feelings for him -

Ok, so she’s giving up on him because she feels she has no right to love him any more after the pain she just caused him. And that’s supposed to make me feel what, exactly? Please. Spare me, Juvia. And yeah, she killed off Keith, thinking Gray will hate her forever for doing it, but she did it anyway because Silver assured her it was what was best for Gray. But so what? 

You can keep your “sorries” Juvia, we know you don’t really mean it! At the end of the day, she still hurt Gray knowingly. Thankfully Gray is about to go off on her AT LAST.

Poor Gray, he’s far too upset to even think straight! Don’t stick your face there (the phrase is a shoulder to cry on, not a boob!)! You were almost rid of her forever!!!! Ugh! >_<

Whatever, she’s so selfish that she doesn’t even attempt to console Gr-

Ok, that scene doesn’t really give the full effect of how terrible Juvia can be. Let me go back to Juvia’s jealousy. As I said, Gray is not allowed to be in contact with other females, but having PHYSICAL CONTACT with another girl is ESPECIALLY PROHIBITE-

Gray is carrying Erza ( a woman who Gray is clearly no longer friends with thanks to Juvia isolating him from the female population) on his back?! Unforgivable! Juvia will surely never allow that!!! Watch as she… 

…does …

…nothing.

Oh. Well, I mean, surely she has already expressed her extreme displeasure, and threatened her unconscious figure with retribution, wishing her wounds never heal in a panel that Mashima forgot to include. No matter! We know the truth!!!

Plus, there were plenty of other moments where Juvia showed her violent anger over Gray touching another female that wasn’t her.

Gray dove to catch Lucy?! How dare he!!!! How dare he put his hands on her?! Oh, we are about to see some intense Juvia anger oho! Lucy better watch out, because she thinks she’s in pain now, but wait until Juvia gets done with h-

Well, I’m sure Juvia’s look of concern, and being one of the first people trying to run to Lucy’s aid means nothing! It’s just for show! We know the true feelings lying just below the surface! She was seething with jealousy on the INSIDE Surely Juvia spent the rest of the day privately celebrating Lucy’s misfortune, and wishing her further ill. I bet she didn’t even go visi-

That’s fine. Juvia being the first from Team B to rush into Lucy’s hospital room is MEANINGLESS, do you hear?! She was probably laughing raucously at Lucy’s suffering moments before she rushed inside! You are not fooling anyone, Juvia!!!

Lucy and Gajeel about to be attacked by Keith. Yes! two false friends, and her greatest love rival about to get taken out in one fell swoop. Excellent! Juvia will be celebrating to-

NO!!! What are you doing?! Juvia!!! 

Ugh, honestly, Juvia doesn’t have friendships, ok? I get she wants to look good to manga readers, but this is just too hard to swallow. As if Juvia would show any care, connection or try and protect someone that’s not Gra-

Ok… you know what? Who cares if Juvia’s done the most unison raids, which is a magic attack that is supposed to show a close bond between two people? Who cares if she’s had important “moments” with other people? Plus, a lot of those things happened a LONG time ago, so obviously they don’t matter any more.  If it didn’t happen in the most recent chapters, it’s null and void. Simple as that! Everyone knows character development has an expiration date. She obviously hates these people now, and is no longer friends with any of them. DUH! 

Anyway, Mashima, you can keep trying to make us believe Juvia isn’t a heartless, selfish stalker, who’s goal in life isn’t to isolate Gray from all of his friends, and heap harm upon all love rivals. But I’m not buying it.

Not. 

For. 

One.

Second.

Because I, and MANY others, know the truth. It doesn’t matter if the actual manga doesn’t support my claims, because I think it’s obvious what Juvia’s true character really is. So, no matter how many times you show Juvia “caring” about other people, and no matter how often we see her “selflessly” sacrificing her own well being and interests for the good of others, I know how things TRULY are.

There’s a darkness lurking just below the surface.

We’re all on to you, Juvia.

Zeref? Acnologia? You ain’t got NOTHING on Juvia, The True Face of Darkness (forget E.N.D., it’s all about T.F.D.).

Taking down Fairy Tail from the inside, one love rival at a time.

I’m sorry what the f#ck is this non-sense someone tell me it’s a bad joke.

I love how you just disproved what you were trying so hard to prove. Good job 👏

Thank you!!! ^_______^

Also, word of the day:

Satire

noun

— five things you know and one thing you don’t. (insp)

Aw my otps ♡ Art by sensei on Twitter!

I’ve already said why the common desire of protection Gray and Juvia share is my favourite key of their relationship, and since I finally have the time I am going to explore it a bit…

Juvia swore to protect Gray when they first encountered, in chapter 56. She just met the love of her life and the first thing she thinks about is to protect him, not even protect herself and they are in a war in which she must win. And she did protect him.

Gray protected Juvia many times as well (Tenrou, GMG, Tartaros etc) and we found out he really did swear to himself to protect her no matter what the cost in chapter 499, confirming one of the headcanons written by fans in these years. He thinks he failed and you can clearly see his anger through his eyes.

If someone is still salty at the “lack” of Gray confessing by words, remember this. Swearing / vowing to protect someone is a big deal in Japan, it is an act of love and it’s crystal clear that in Gruvia case it’s romantic love, as Gray himself said that he could never hurt a comrade, no! He would never hurt Juvia.

Protection is just another of the endless parallels we had in the chapters from 498 to 500 and onwards, starting from Gray and Juvia being “enemies” again.

We well know why Juvia swore to protect Gray. She loves him.

Gray is mirroring her actions, her words and… her love. He loves her just like she does.

- - - -

This is the development of a healthy and well-built relationship, guys. Words aren’t even enough to say how beautiful the message Gruvia sends is, despite what other people say.

Gruvia Fluff week day 4 - Shared Clothes Look at your waifu already served breakfast before you wake up 😤

FAIRY TAIL-CHAPTERS-499-504 *SPOILER ALERT*

Note the disclaimer… there will be spoilers.

A lot has happened in Fairy Tail recently, a lot of things that are a little hard to digest. I am not personally a manga reader, but I always find post about the manga, so I believe I am as caught up as much as someone who doesn’t read the manga can be, and I have some things to say about it. So let’s begin shall we?

To make this easier I will break it up into two main sections-one about Gray and Juvia and one about Gray and Natsu. Since I am a Gruvia girl and their big moment came first, let’s start with

GRAY X JUVIA: DID HE CONFESS?

Now as I stated before I do not read that manga so there is a lot I am not aware of, especially since I had been taking a break from Fairy Tail. However when I decided to look at the Gruvia tag…

I honestly had a hard time comprehending what happened. All I really understood was that Juvia was dead… but she really wasn’t… but Gray thought she was and began to fall into darkness. As I kept looking through Tumblr the pieces began to be put together and I quickly realized what had happened; they both had to fight each other to the death, and instead of hurting on another they killed themselves. However Juvia being Juvia gave her blood to Gray so that he would live… and she was dead (at least that’s how it seemed) and Gray proceeds to break down and then beats the ever living shit of out this invel guy.

*Sighs and whips forehead* I did it… not a bad for a girl who doesn’t read the manga hunh?

Anyway… what everyone talked about was what happened when Gray broke down-beacuse in a certain light what he said could be taken as a confession. Oh and let’s not forget the fact that he may or may not have kissed Juvia was well.

There have been a lot of great post on this matter, but I’m gonna try and get my two sense in. So let’s look at what he says. When Gray begins to realize what Juvia is doing he says something along the lines of “wait… no no no”, that he says and I quote “Juvia… I promise I’ll take your feelings more seriously so… please just open your eyes!”

My heart honestly stopped when I read this for two  reasons; one because I thought my favorite female character was dead and two because of what Gray said. The last two panels in particular where he’s begging Juvia to open her eyes and then just says her name had such a strong effect on me. Couple that with the imagine of him holding Juvia close and pressing his forehead agents hers and you have something as equally powerful as it is heartbreaking. One of the reasons it’s so heartbreaking is because of an earlier moment between the two of them where Gray promises he’ll give her an answer, and as far as Gray knows Juvia died without ever knowing how Gray truly felt.

However did Mashima-being who he is-give us a clue what Gray answer will be? Did Gray confess to Juvia and did he even *LE GASP* kiss her?

I have seen some arguments saying that it’s not much of a confession, maybe because he didn’t out right say “Juvia I love you”. However I believe the signs are there that this is a kind’ of confession. A while back Gray promised Juvia that he would give her an answer-does he love her back or not? We all know that Gray has lost so many people in his life, and because of that it’s made very hard for Gray to really open and connect with people. On top of that, it is important to remember that Fairy Tail comes from a culture where big verbal expressions of love are not the norm. From my understanding, in Japan they prefer to show their love, where as in American and the West in general they tend to express it verbally.

In fact you know what I learned is the most romantic act in Japan… a double suicide. What do Gray and Juvia (attempt to) do?

Kill themselves. At the exact same time.

As an American of Irish, English, Scottish and French heritage myself I have a hard time wrapping my head around the idea that killing yourself with your partner is the ultimate expression of romance. So I can understand how that many many of the other subtle signs can over Western heads because romance tends to not be subtle here. That’s not the point The point is that actions speak louder than words-expeically when it comes to Gray. The way he’s holding her, the fact he was ready to give up his life so he didn’t have to hurt her and the fact he risking his life for her… again… it all speaks volumes. For quiet time we have been seeing them very much at ease and relaxed with each other.  (you know when they’re not fighting to save the world). This adds meaning to his actions and especially his words. In this translation he says he will take her feelings more seriously, which I honestly can not picture him saying this to any other person, nor is there any reason to. Juvia is the only one he seems to have pushed away the most, and the one who has feelings that he needs to

Basically I believe this is the closest we will probably get to an actual confession we will get… for now at least. As for the kiss… well I personally think he  TOTALLY kissed he, but in the end it’s up to Masima to make that choice.

GRAY AND NATSU: JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS.

This part will be a lot shorter as this chapter just came out today and it’s almost 2:00 AM and I need sleep. :P

I have noticed a lot of people complaining about Natsu and Gray’s behavior over the span of these five chapters. Why didn’t they check to see if Juvia and Lucy had a pulse BEFORE falling into darkness/becoming a demon. And why are they fighting each other (more specifically why is Gray so hell bent on killing END even though he had nothing to do with her “death”). I can kind’ of understand where those people are coming from, but I am going to defend them because Gray and Natsu had good reason to believe their loves were dead and were not in their right minds.

Yes I think both Natsu and Gray had good reason to believe Lucy and Juvia were dead. First of all Gray witnessed Juvia stab herself, and saw her giving him a blood transfusion. He had every right to believe she was dead-especially since when he held her he probably didn’t feel any heart beat or feel the rise and fall of her chest. Granted if she was just on the verge of death and he had bothered to really look he might have felt a faint heart beat. However he didn’t, and in all honesty whether he had or not wouldn’t have changed the fact she was pretty much on deaths door and had it not been for Wendy would have died anyway. So yes… it’s not that drastic or unrealistic for Gray think she was dead.

As for Natsu, well to be perfectly he did see Lucy’s body after she had been stabbed, and she wasn’t moving and maybe at that moment not breathing. However Natsu never got the chance to see Lucy wake up because… well he became END and was no longer Natsu -which leads me to my next point; neither Gray or Natsu were in their right minds.

Take a minute if you will to step into Gray’s shoes; you have lots everything; you’re mother you’re father (twice), your mentor and you’re… friend for lack of a better word to describe Ultear. Now you’ve just lost the woman you love, and you’re already in danger of being consumed by darkness. How would you react? Gray was not acting rationally at all, because he was consumed by his grief and slipping further and further into darkness. Now I agree it seems odd that he wants to kill END in no short part because Juvia (at leas that what it seems like at the moment).

I will argue that this is Gray’s brain running on instinct in it’s own strange way. Destroying END has been his mission since his father finally moved on, and it possible that it has been so ingrained in Gray that he’s just doing it for no reason besides that he knows he has to.

Again… he wasn’t really in his right mind.

Well that’s all I have for tonight… I hopeyou all enjoyed my silly opinions. Now if you’ll excuse me I gotta go curl up in my blankets and dream of my latest Gruvia fan fiction idea.

It is concerning that Zeref is concerned.
