Fairy Tail: Final Season - Part 24 [Blu-ray]

Good Anime

It works good

Fairy Tail is by far one of my favorite anime out there! It really speaks to your soul and teaches so many great values! It also is extremely entertaining to watch with loads of action and plot twists!

Entertaining

This arc is one of my favorites, and I'm glad Funimation is releasing these blu ray sets quickly. Only thing thats disappointing is that it looks like there is no audio commentary. Not a big deal, but I do love to hear the cast and crew talk about thier experience in making the show.

Fairy Tail is a great series for those who have watched the majority of it by this point and have enjoyed it thus far. Chances are you'll likely enjoy the rest of it. While I could go into about the story itself and how the ending could have been a lot better (it was fine, nothing to write home about though), I'll instead be pointing out flaws I see as a collector.For starters, and this has nothing to do with the region restrictions or Amazon's part, Funimation/Crunchyroll have yet to (and probably won't by this point) release "collections" for the remaining parts after Fairy Tail Zero. After Fairy Tail Zero (at least in the United States), they only have the "parts" available to complete your collection.Now I realize that COVID was a big reason for a lot of development and release of home videos being delayed—and some companies even went under or are seriously hurting because of the pandemic—but one has to wonder what the marketing team was wondering.Not only are they forcing those who have bought collections up to this point to buy their individual parts to milk their profits (having to buy more of them), but because of packaging differences between the parts and the collections (the collections just have a standard Blu-ray size instead of a larger DVD packaging size), it makes it jarring as a collector that they look so different side-by-side. At first glance the packaging between the different seasons even later in the collection types, changes from this nice deep blue with double Fairy Tail emblems on the spines to this weird, grayish boxed outline and a single, black emblem at the bottom below the characters.Truthfully, I can get over this small visual discrepancy. But choosing not to make the rest of the collections and having your parts be taller and more odd in appearance from the spine (with the part number visually in a diamond and the emblem being at the top) just really DOESN'T DO IT for me as a collector.As a collector you want everything to visually match and compliment each other. It's a rather big disappointment in the company's efforts, and I can't help but feel as if they are just lazy and out to get quick money from their fans.Sadly, this is the only way for collectors like myself to finish collecting the series at the time of writing this. I'm hopeful that they'll one day finish the "collection" packaging, but I'm also not holding my breath. Funimation always was the mega-corp that seemed greedy and didn't follow various distribution protocols. In most if not ALL cases, they don't offer original Japanese telops, and they often cut or edit original materials for various reasons, either with dubbing or opening and ending credits. Sometimes bonus features are in one type of boxed set, and not in another (My Hero Academia is a great example).I can only hope that with this Crunchyroll merger, they'll start formulating better ideas, but again, I'm not holding my breath much.Bottom line: if you want to finish your collection, just buy these parts. Unfortunately, it'll look jarring next to your collections, but it's our only option and I don't see them coming out with more anytime soon. Waiting for the rest of the collections to come out is like waiting for a desert rain: useless and disappointing.
