Then comes Episode 227. The battle is over. The dragons have vanished. And the guild hall is gone. For many long-time fans of Hiro Mashima’s beloved
The episode ends on a classic Fairy Tail freeze-frame: Natsu punching the sky, Lucy crying and laughing simultaneously, and Happy flying between them. The title card fades in: It’s not a happy ending. It’s a hopeful one.

The manga would continue with the Avatar and Alvarez Empire arcs, but the anime would not return until Fairy Tail: Final Series in 2018.
