Fairy Tail 100 Years Quest (フェアリーテイル 100年クエスト, Fearī Teiru Hyaku-nen Kuesuto) is a Japanese manga series storyboarded by Hiro Mashima and illustrated by Atsuo Ueda. It is a spin-off and a sequel to Mashima's Fairy Tail series, which follows the adventures of Natsu Dragneel and his team from the titular wizard guild, serving as a direct continuation of the series. The manga was launched in Kodansha's Magazine Pocket manga app on July 25, 2018, and is serialized simultaneously in Weekly Shōnen Magazine.

Premise

One year after their victory over Zeref and Acnologia, Natsu Dragneel and his team from the Fairy Tail wizard guild – Lucy Heartfilia, Happy, Gray Fullbuster, Erza Scarlet, Wendy Marvell, and Carla – embark on a "century quest", a guild mission that has never been accomplished in over 100 years since its posting.[1]

Development and release

Following the conclusion of Fairy Tail on July 26, 2017, Hiro Mashima posted a tweet on April 5, 2018 announcing that sequel to the series was being developed as a spin-off manga, although he did not specify that he would be returning as the illustrator.[2] On June 27, Mashima announced that the manga was tentatively titled Fairy Tail Zokuhen (FAIRY TAIL続編, lit. "Fairy Tail Sequel"),[3] which was confirmed on July 4 to be drawn by Atsuo Ueda with original storyboards provided by Mashima.[4] The manga was launched with two chapters in Kodansha's Magazine Pocket manga app on July 25, 2018 under the title Fairy Tail 100 Years Quest, while the first chapter was simultaneously published in the 34th issue of Weekly Shōnen Magazine.[4][5] On August 28, Ueda tweeted that chapters would be released every two weeks beginning on September 5.[6]
