When it comes to shipping characters of certain series, fans can be pretty rabid, and that includes Fairy Tail where the shipping wars have gotten cutthroat and pretty ugly.
Things have gotten so ugly in the Fairy tail shipping Wars that series creator, Hiro Mashima himself has stepped in and asked fans to control themselves and tone down the mudslinging against rival ships. In his own official twitter page, the legendary mangaka tweeted:
カップリングの要望は毎日のように目にする。SNSをやってない作家もFLを通して目にする機会がある。しかし作家はファンの要望全てには答えない。信念をもって描いてるからだよ。ファンがカップリングで盛り上がってくれるのは非常に嬉しい。しかしファン同士の争いを見たい作家はいないんだよ。

“I see requests to make certain characters couples like daily on social networks. Even authors who do not use social media have opportunities to read fan mail. But authors cannot fulfill every wish their fans have. We have our own conviction when creating our stories. It thrills us when our fans go crazy about potential couplings. But we authors do not want to see our fans getting at each other’s throats over these matters.
ちょっと話がそれるんだけど、キャラへの暴言は私にする分には構わないんだけど、アニメ関係者やそのキャラが好きな人に凸するのは筋違いだと思うんだ。自分の押しキャラの品格まで損ねちゃうのは悲しいでしょ？カップリングとかってさ妄想が楽しい訳じゃん。みんな仲良くやりまっしょ！

“On a sidenote: If you hate the characters, you can freely direct your anger at me. But I think that one shouldn’t take it out on the people who make the anime or love the anime’s characters. Throwing dirt even onto your favorite character is a sad thing, isn’t it? Coupling your own couples should be a fun thing, no? Please get along and have fun!”
Mashima has spoken fanboys and fangirls, calm down and try to get along!Maybe you might even get the ship you want if Mashima is satisfied with your behavior. So whether you ship Natsu x Lucy or Natsu x Lisanna, or Grey x Juvia or Leon x Juvia, things should certainly calm down a bit now that the almighty creator himself has stepped in… right?!
