Description What never actually happened...

...was that Gray blushed when he saw Lucy's panties when the wind blew it. This didn't happen in the anime either. This never happened at all. This is what happens when you regurgitate blindly what you read on a blog, instead of carefully reading the manga. 

This is a common justification that GrayLu fans often use.  I'm getting tired of of people of having to disprove this point over and over again. So do me all a favor fellow NaLu fans, Gruvia fans, or just anybody who doesn't like to put up with falsehoods: Spread this like wildfire. Also, I know that I am generalizing, but since many people feel it's okay to demonize NaLu fans...Then seeing as practically every GrayLu fan I've ever talked to has hashed up this piece of nonsense at least once before, that I am entirely justified.

There are a multitude of pairings which are at this point forgone conclusions: those pairings are GaLe, Gruvia, and NaLu.

Dont care. She' not saying anything worth discussing. I did block her, but only because I found her annoying. I had no idea this was going to stop her from replying. Since that is the case, I have now unblocked her. I'm a man of my word.

She says I've made 2 long posts. I've only made 1 for every one of hers. Look in the comments and do the math. Lie number 1. She says that my posts were 99% untrue. I dare her to find just one false thing I've posted. Lie number 2. On top of lie number 3 and 4 that was no GrayLu fan used this as an argument and that nobody agreed with the blog. reinasscoop come at me, bro. I'd LOVE to see what you have in store for me.

Everything you told her was the truth.  Some people just doesn't want to see the reality.

I understand how you fell, even when I don't agree with the connection thing. The point was that this was never a graylu moment. She proved wrong that the moment's never happen either. That's all. I personally never saw a gruvia or nalu shipper forcing a graylu shipper to ship a ship of the main pairings. What I meant with the reality thing is that anime filler doesn't count and that's simply the truth. I don't think Mashima has so much time to observe what the animators do, when he's working at the manga. He can adress where the manga is heading he can't be 24 hours around them. That's not possible. He's throwing pages after pages + color spreads + omakes .... 

I don't think Fairy Tail has ship wars when you compare it with Naruto or Bleach. People simply disagree with some points. That not hate either. Many people are multishippers and enjoy other pairings beside the main ones, but they know it's not going to work out. Thats the point a lot of people want to say, and people turn it around and claim it's hate.

Personally I saw this manga page often on tumblr posted and saying it's a Graylu moment, and I'm not even registered on there. I doesn't help that confession blogs are posting anti-things and building the tension up between Graylu and Nalu/Gruvia shippers.


sorry for the bad englisch

I agree this was not a moment, I even didn't remember it xD. I'm not watching the anime, but I saw some screenshots with "grayluish" scenes that didn't exist in the manga and that can give false informations to the fans...
i've seen people shipping gruvia, nalu, graylu, grayza (in fact nearly all the ships) bashing others that's why I wrote that
I'm not in these fandoms (naruto etc) but yeah I heard shipping wars are something !

Regardless of whether Gray was looking at Lucy or not, this isn't a scene Graylu fans should be hyping over.

seriously?
some people (who I can see aren't graylu shippers) actually didn't know this?
It was obvious even from the anime. I ignored this since the day you posted it, but it seems some actually think we assumed this was gray staring at lucys pants.
common justification? WE NEVER USED THIS.
actually, this PROVES how ignorant you people are assuming we don't know this. this did ABSOLUTELY nothing. even though I replied I promise you no one will actually reply to this because this happened at the START of the manga and anime and pretty laughable for who ever thought that only s/he noticed it.
its pretty PLAIN obvious even in the anime.
the fact that you desperately look for something while assuming that it was what we were thinking Just to start something is really childish and laughable.
I just can't stress how much I laughed at this. and people trying to act snobby thinking they actually hit the target with this silly assumption is pretty pathetic.
I love NaLu I want them to end up married with kids.
but GrayLu is my ONE TRUE PAIRING and this did no affect because EVERYONE knew it. which is obvious from how people look at what you wrote and too sorry for you for trying to give a reply.

  They do use it:  fairytailconfess.tumblr.com/po…

 THIRD PARAGRAPH. Read it. And judging by the fact that tonnes of GrayLu fans gather like swarms saying they agree with everything, I can safely say they don't bother to check it out. Last time I've checked the definition of "NEVER" is still "never happened once".  Not "someone said it once, and a bunch of people agrees with him". So there. Here's your one counterexample. Cited, and all. More than what I ever get when I ask for examples of NaLu fans hating on Mashima for putting Lisanna and Natsu into a cage.  

  And incase you want to argue that this wasn't referring to this moment, watch episode 7 ( This person got her information mostly from the anime, and bases pretty much the whole thing on anime filler scenes). That's the ONLY time Gray ever said "oi oi" in that fashion, in either the manga or anime. So I am 99% sure this is EXACTLY the moment she is referring to. 

 No need to pretend to love NaLu. Even if you actually did, I can care less.

Ok. Really? 
I HAVE TUMBLR AND HAVE SEEN IT.
ONE person said it.  NOBODY AGREED TO IT. go read it yourself.
I promise you nobody else thinks that! IF THEY DID. Their would be Images and collages , Gifs made using it.
So thats REALLY silly and narrow thinking to just ASSUME that everybody thinks that, and ask people to pass it on with no proof. Too common, PFFT.
I can assure you Gray HAS blushed when seeing her naked Thrice, in the anime, OVA (which was revealed to have been drawn first by mashima with him blushing) and movie. and 2 other times. just so you know. So maybe you read two words from other post saying how he blushed when seeing lucy they Definitely were refering to those and just assumed stuff. Idk.

That explains all the likes and reblogs. Riiiiight. There ARE images with this image in it btw. You called me out, I proved it. You can keep backpedalling, bro. Yup. Here's a reblog by a guy who say's she agrees with everything this blogger wrote and why this proves GrayLu is superior to NaLu and Gruvia (lmao): falling3raindrops.tumblr.com/p… .

Keep em coming. 

---------------------------------------The rest if off topic, but I might as well ------------------------------------------------
 As for Gray seeing Lucy naked. He's seen her naked twice in canon. Once was in the hot-springs after the giants village. Natsu did as well, and he too blushed. The other time in the movie (and I barely consider that canon). Again Natsu did as well. These are the only two sources that we KNOW Mashima has had a direct involvement in. 

The rest are ANIME FILLERS THAT NEVER HAPPENED IN THE MANGA. If Mashima really and truly wanted to put hints in for GrayLu, he would have done them in the manga. As far as I'm concerned, they are not canon. You can believe what you want but unless you have proof of Mashima's involvement in making those fillers, I am not interested in the slightest bit. I follow the manga. The only anime fillers we know Mashima worked on was the Key of the Starry Nights arc, and that was because there was a news-post about him working on the storyboard and being involved in the character designs. None of that applies to these random fillers from the beginning of the anime project when Mashima didn't even know the direction that they were going to take with the Lisanna fillers (the animation director specifically left it ambiguous in HOPES that Mashima would bring her character back). 

1) The time where Virgo changed Lucy's clothes in the tower of heaven never happened in the manga.  Lucy was already changed there: 
mangafox.me/manga/fairy_tail/v…
mangafox.me/manga/fairy_tail/v…
2) The time where Lucy's clothes was torn up by Erza, Gray never gave Lucy a second thought in the manga:
mangafox.me/manga/fairy_tail/v…
3) I don't even know where you're getting the third one. 

 There was never a time he saw her naked in the OVA. There's been 5 OVAs. Lucy's been naked in none of them, except the 4th one...and there was no indication that any of the boys saw the girls naked then. Where was it revealed to have been first drawn with Gray blushing? You mean the memory day's omake where Natsu kept starring up Lucy's skirt and Gray noticed that he that's what Natsu was gawking at? He never stated "oi oi then".

The blogger was DEFINITELY referring to the time where the wind was blowing in Virgo's skirt and Gray said "oi oi" because that was the ONLY time Gray ever said "oi oi" in that fashion and Lucy's skirt was blown. Don't even TRY to backpedal out of this one.

I came across this exact same blog. The poster appeals to a bunch of anime only feats and even says some things that outright just didn't happen.  Funny how people didn't try to reply to the arguments, but rather the fact I said it. 
 
You are, of course, correct that this scene with Virgo never happened in the way some people portray try to sell it off as. Gray was staring at Virgo's panties, not trying to stare up Lucy's. So long as we can settle on this objective FACT, then we have no problems. Admittedly, not every GrayLu fan is guilty of assuming this...but I few of them have tried to argue this to me. Camoche or AhmedtheGreat, I believe. They may have changed their position since (it's been months).

 It's not that hard to get. Stuff we know Mashima worked on = Mashima's work = reliable. Stuff that may be the studios' artistic license = unreliable.

Haha, this is spot on. I dont care what graylu fans think. If your going to use this as proof of your ship, prepare to be smacked in the face with it. It's like bragging about how clean your shirt is, but when someone tells you that their's a stain on it, you plug your ears and start acting all pissy. Makes no sense.
