Hiro Mashima's FAIRY TAILE not only features a large number of characters, but also battles between guilds, with heated battles unfolding. The strong bonds between the Fairy Tail members and the way they support each other are must-sees, and each scene is sure to be one you can't miss. This time, we'll be looking at the sorceress Wendy Marvell! We'll be introducing her charm, hidden within her cute appearance, by touching on episodes from the story.

Wendy's charm 1: A girl with a brave and kind personality

Wendy Marvell, who appears in "FAIRY TAILE", is a relatively quiet character among the "Fairy Tail" that has a lineup of unique members. And yet, not only does she care deeply for her friends, she is also portrayed as brave and kind-hearted, just as she appears. Not only in battle but in everyday life as well, Wendy always acts with concern and consideration, and it is no exaggeration to say that she is the only one with a conscience when acting with Natsu and the others.

Wendy first appeared in the battle against the Oracion Seis, and at the time she was a member of the Cait Shelter. There, she joins the Guild Alliance as a support, but while she tries her best, she also seems to be stronger and more timid. Wendy was always somewhat unreliable, but after joining Fairy Tail, she began to fight with her head held high, and the expression she showed when she first appeared is no longer there, showing that she has grown a lot.

Wendy's charm 2: A dragon slayer mage with the nicknames "Shrine Maiden of the Sky" and "Heavenly Dragon"

At first, Wendy had a strong unreliable air about her, but she is also one of the dragon slayers. Nicknamed the "Shrine Maiden of the Sky," Wendy mainly provides rear support in battle, but as the story progresses, she also faces strong foes on her own. She is skilled in support magic, and in scenes where she fights alongside her allies, her support magic is often at work, showing a strength that can never be measured by combat power alone.

Wendy is skilled in support magic, and can strengthen the target's stats, such as attack power and movement speed. During the battle at Edolas, he not only enchanted Natsu and Gajeel with "Vernier" and "Arms", but also cast "Vernier" on himself to avoid enemy attacks. He can also use healing magic, healing wounds and restoring stamina, making him an indispensable presence in fierce battles.

Dragon Slayers can recover and strengthen their magic by eating their own attribute, and Wendy's attribute is "air." Air is a universal thing, so a certain amount of magic power can be recovered in any place. However, her weakness is that she cannot use magic in polluted environments, so she may not be a valuable asset in some locations. On the other hand, in places with clean air, Wendy's magic power increases, so you can expect it to be effective.

Wendy's charm 3: She admires Natsu and often acts together with him

The anime version depicts Wendy's exploits more than the original work. She often acts together with the main character, Natsu, and it is clear that she admires him like an older brother. It's true that Wendy does have feelings of admiration for Natsu, and although she denies that they are romantic feelings, she blushes when her friend Shelia points this out. In fact, they seem to be enjoying their trip, so it's not surprising that Wendy has feelings for Natsu.

Dragon Slayers are known for being weak to vehicles, so Natsu is forced to go on a harsh journey every time he receives a request. However, after Wendy joined the guild, Natsu was able to avoid motion sickness by using the magic "Troia" to improve his sense of balance. However, as Wendy trained and became stronger, she also became weaker when traveling, and so she and Natsu began to get dizzy when traveling together.

Wendy's charm 4: She also shows signs of being a girl her age

Wendy is 12 years old when she first appears in the story, making her one of the youngest characters. In the daily life part, she is depicted as a girl of her age, and we see her showing many cute expressions, such as getting excited by the gorgeous scenery and having fun innocently. Especially since joining Fairy Tail, Wendy has become more cheerful, so you will definitely be charmed by her smile.

Wendy is still young, but not only are there many older women in Fairy Tail, they all have outstanding styles. Being a young girl of marriageable age, she seems to have complexes about the size and growth of her own breasts, and the sad expression she sometimes shows is adorable and hard to miss. Taurus, the celestial spirit with whom Lucy has a contract, also likes large breasts, so she seems to dislike them just like Levy, who also has problems with small breasts.

Wendy's charm 5: Always acting together with Charles

Just as Natsu and Happy are a set, Wendy is also always acting together with her white cat Charles. The two have known each other since they were young, and Charles has been taking care of Wendy, who hated being alone. Wendy grows as time goes by, and even more so when she joins Fairy Tail, but she still receives criticism from Charles. Wendy also has a stubborn side, but it's impressive how they get along so well.

Wendy is often scolded by Charles

Wendy, who was a mage at the "Cat Inn," was timid and intimidated, and when Charles saw her, she was often scolded by him, saying, "Pull yourself together!" Although he does seem to make fun of her at times, he is rarely scolded since joining Fairy Tail, and they are able to converse on an equal footing. He also has the composure to tease Charles, and seeing the two of them get along so well is sure to warm the hearts of viewers, too.

Wendy's charm 6: Wendy gradually shows her fighting side

By joining "Fairy Tail", Wendy has grown a lot mentally. In the battle over Nirvana, she avoided fighting, but in the battles against Edolas and "Devil's Heart", she begins to face the enemy and show her will to fight. It was none other than Natsu who greatly moved her heart, and while she continued to support him with her auxiliary magic, she bravely faced him.

Learns not only support but also offensive magic

Fighting alongside Natsu, Wendy once again learns offensive magic. Not only does she use the breath attack that is characteristic of Dragon Slayer Mages, but she also follows his example and masters the "Heavenly Dragon Wing Attack." Furthermore, when she receives the Dragon Slayer Secret Technique that was entrusted to Grandine by Porlyushka, she begins to demonstrate it in the Grand Magical Martial Arts Demonstration, and she has grown significantly from being the one being protected to a girl who fights to protect her allies.

After returning from Tenrou Island, Wendy decides to participate in the Great Demonic Martial Arts Demonstration, putting the status and prestige of "Fairy Tail" on the line. When she is instructed by the guild master Makarov to participate as Team A, she fights against strong opponents to live up to his expectations. Although she undergoes rigorous training just before the event, it pays off as she fights a fierce battle with Shelia of "Snake Princess' Scales" and ends up building a good friendship with her.

Wendy's charm 7: Searching for Grandine, the Celestial Dragon

Like Natsu and Kajil, Wendy is also searching for Grandine, the Celestial Dragon, who disappeared on July 7, X777. The reason she participated in the Battle of Nirvana as a guild alliance was to meet Natsu, a fellow dragon slayer, and find out more about Grandine. Although she was unable to get hold of any clues, she instead met her fellow members of Fairy Tail, and began to spend her days surrounded by such wonderful friends.

Wendy is deeply in love with Porlyushka

Wendy feels a familiar atmosphere when she meets Porlyushka for the first time, but her true identity is Grandine from the parallel world Edolas. Porlyuschka also says that she has met Grandine in Earthland, the real world, but no further clues can be obtained. However, to Wendy, it doesn't change the fact that she has met Grandine, and from then on she begins to refer to Porlyuschka as Grandine.

Wendy's charm 8: One of the people chosen to defeat Acronogia

Not only Wendy, but Natsu and Gajeel were also children gathered by the dragons and were important people in defeating Acronogia. The three had known each other since they were young, but when they arrived in the time of the 7th of July 677, X777, they had partially lost their memories and all set out to search for the missing dragons. However, although they had mastered Dragon Slayer Magic, the only means of attacking dragons, they were no match for the dragons that had appeared in the modern day due to Eclipse.

She also mediated the fight between Natsu and Gajeel

In Wendy's original time, she lived with Natsu and Gajeel. It has been revealed that Natsu and Gajeel were fighting almost every day, and Wendy cried as she mediated between them. In the time period in which the story is set, the two are constantly fighting each other and showing signs of rivalry, but Wendy just ignores it, thinking it's "just the usual," and this is where we can see her growing mentally.

Wendy, who was sent to July 7, X777, is sad that Grandine is gone, as she used to cry a lot as a child. As she was crying alone, a boy who would become Jellal appeared. He was the prince of Edolas and called himself Mystogan. Unable to abandon Wendy, he travels with her for a while, but in order to achieve his original goal, he leaves Wendy at the "Bakecat Inn," and they are reunited in Earthland after "Fairy Tail" has disappeared.

Wendy's charm 9: After the guild disbands, she transfers to "Snake Princess Scales"

Due to Makarov's intentions, "Fairy Tail" will be disbanded, but Wendy and Charles will temporarily take refuge in "Snake Princess Scales". There, she becomes an idol-like figure alongside her friend Shelia as part of the "Sky Sisters." It was Shelia's arrangement that allowed Wendy to stay at the guild, and the story depicts her enjoying the time she spends with the two of them.

Wendy was grateful to Natsu for inviting her to "Snake Princess Scales," so she suppressed her desire to go find him. However, Shelia saw through her feelings, and she was also one of those who hoped for the revival of "Fairy Tail." When she eventually reunites with Natsu and Lucy, she sends them off on a journey to rebuild Fairy Tail. No matter what, the friendship between the two remains unbroken, making this a scene that is so typical of Fairy Tail.

Wendy's charm 10: The only female character who played the main character in two spin-off works

The last charm of Wendy that I would like to introduce is that she is very popular with readers and fans! She is a rare character in Mashima Hiro's works, a young character with a small bust size, but she has gained a lot of popularity, and it has been revealed that this was a development that even the author did not expect. As a result, she is the protagonist in two works: the spin-off "Blue Mistral" which focuses on Wendy, and "FAIRY GIRLS", a story centered around the female members, making her the only character to play the protagonist in two works.

A cute girl who is loved by fans!

Wendy is popular with fans not only because of her cute appearance, but also because of her wide variety of hairstyles. Many people were particularly fascinated by her twin-tail look, and when she cut her hair short, many readers expressed their sadness. Perhaps because of this, her hair went back to long after the battle with the Gate of the Underworld, and it can be said that the voices of her fans had a big influence on her character.
