The Princess and the Dragon (2017 Version)


With only 4 chapters to go before Fairy Tail ends, I thought it would be a good time to start writing eulogies for the pairings that are clearly crack/dead. Alongside the image above is the obituary I wrote for NaLi:

NaLi was a crack pairing between FT mages Natsu Dragneel and Lisanna Strauss. This pairing came about after an omake was released relatively early on, where Natsu and Lisanna, in a childhood flashback, found an egg on the road and raised it together, becoming close friends in the process, with Lis even going so far as to (jokingly) propose to Natsu. However, this pairing was not meant to be, as 4 years after this event, an accident involving a botched take-over on Elfman's part occurred which resulted in Lisanna's supposed death.

With that in mind, you'd expect Lisanna to try to make up for lost time with Natsu after returning from Edolas? That was probably some fucking wishful thinking right there, because Lisanna barely interacted with Natsu after the first timeskip (well, outside of Chapter 367, but they didn't have much of a choice in the matter, as I'll get to in the next paragraph). Hell, during the Tenrou arc, Lisanna told Lucy to "stay close to Natsu", right before the fight with Precht (a.k.a Master Hades), which can be interpreted as Lis realizing that Natsu had moved on and she should probably do the same.

Which brings us to the infamous jail scene from Chapter 367. Despite being promoted by flamethrowers like Douglas Garret (a.k.a ZN-Lover), this scene is not a legitimate NaLi moment. How in fuck hell can it be, given the context? Let's think about this. Natsu and Lisanna were trapped in a dungeon, both stripped of their pride and chained up like Ringling Bros elephants. Not just that, but they had other priorities. Natsu in particular stormed Tartaros with the intent of busting out Erza and Mira, while Lis was worried as hell about Elfman. Then there was the whole issue with FACE potentially wiping out all magic. In short, escaping and saving the world were top priority in this situation. And as for Natsu's so-called "pervert reaction face", he was obviously shocked that Lisanna had been stripped and chained up the same way as him. Not because he was aroused by her naked body or any other asinine reason that Douglas gives. Compare this to whenever Natsu sees Lucy naked. He simply goes quiet and stares at her, with a telltale blush. This kind of reaction shows attraction, not what Natsu displayed in that cell.

TL;DR? NaLu is canon. NaLi is dead. Deal with it. Game Over.

The voice recording of this eulogy can be found here.

Besides that, feel free to enjoy this pic of Natsu fucking Lucy in the ass.

You might remember how my previous Lanza commissions were vector colors, but since I was sitting on a ton of money, I decided to pay $10 extra for a smooth color. Well worth it.
