It was always his wish to become a mangaka. Even as a child he loved to read manga and after reading he used the manga as an example to draw something himself. After highschool Mashima went to a special school for manga artists, but he never finished it. He once said, that even though the school was useful in helping people learn the technique, it wouldn\u2019t help him become a published manga artist.<\/p>\n<p>In 1999 Mashima had a break through with the manga<em> Rave<\/em>, which was published in Kodansha\u2019s weekly <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shonenmagazine.com\/smaga\/fairytail\">shonen magazine<\/a>. The series ran from 1999 till 2005 and there was even an anime made based on the manga. A year later Mashima came with the double as popular<em> Fairy Tail<\/em>, which was also published in Kodansha\u2019s weekly shonen magazine.<\/p>\n<p>The company that publishes the manga of Hiro Mashima is: Kodansha Ltd. One of Japan\u2019s biggest publication companies. The current president is: Yoshinobu Noma, and the company publishes books, magazines, manga, music, cd\u2019s and dvd\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p><em>Fairy Tail<\/em> is a manga that fits in more than one category, among which action, adventure, comedy, fantasy and shonen. In the first couple of chapters the drawing style looks similar to Eiichiro Oda\u2019s <em>One Piece<\/em>, but along the way the style starts looking more and more like the style in the <em>Fairy Tail <\/em>anime series. Even the name of this series has a hidden meaning. It\u2019s not a misspelling, to the contrary, it adds something to the story:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cDo fairies really have a tail? Do they even exist\u2026just like them, this place is an everlasting mystery\u2026an everlasting adventure!\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Makarov Dreyar talking about the true meaning of Fairy Tail in <em>Now We\u2019re Even<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Personally I\u2019d definitely recommend Fairy Tail. It\u2019s not only very exciting, but also funny and mainly also moving. By just reading the manga, or by watching the anime, you learn important lessons about friendship and perseverance. To me Fairy Tail has become an essential adventure and I hope to be able to share that with everyone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mangaka:<\/strong> Mashima Hiro<br \/>\n<strong>Published:<\/strong> 2nd of August 2006<br \/>\n<strong>Volumes:<\/strong> Ongoing<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rating:<\/strong> 90\/100<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The biggest success of well-known mangaka Hiro Mashima.
