About this converter
A-1 Pictures adapted Fairy Tail across 328 episodes, and the canon arcs divide that run unevenly. The Grand Magic Games arc peaks at 53 episodes. Short bridges like Sun Village run 7. Counts follow TV Tokyo broadcast numbering for story arcs only. Filler arcs such as Daphne and Key of the Starry Sky are left out and named in the notes so canon totals stay clean.
How to use it
Pick two entries and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try Grand Magic Games against Sun Village for the widest canon gap. Filler arcs sit outside this table.
Episode ranges use TV Tokyo numbering for the 2009, 2014 and 2018 series. Filler excluded: Daphne (69-75), Key of the Starry Sky (125-150) and Eclipse Celestial Spirits (204-226). The thirteen rows are canon arcs only. Zero tells the Mavis prequel inside canon numbering. The Games arc alone outweighs the first five canon arcs combined. Alvarez closes near behind at 44, giving the finale real weight. Short bridges like Sun Village keep the pace breathing between wars.
FAQ
Which Fairy Tail arc is longest?
Grand Magic Games at 53 episodes. It beats Alvarez by nine episodes.
Which is shortest?
Sun Village at 7 episodes. It bridges the time skip to Tartaros.
Why skip Key of the Starry Sky?
They aired between canon arcs but adapt no manga chapters, so this canon table leaves them out by design.
Does Zero count as canon here?
Yes, episodes 266 to 275. It adapts the Zero prequel manga inside main numbering.
