Maybe you're not aware of the latest anime coming to Japan (and to your your computer screen). Don't worry, we've got you covered!
Fairy Tail is one of the more interesting shounen anime coming out this fall. The premise is that Nancy meets Natsu, member of the mage guild Fairy Tail. Nancy would like to become a mage as well.

Fairy Tail catches you visually first, because it seems to be a mixture between One Piece and Naruto. Fairy Tail has not premiered yet, so all there is to go by is the media that have been released so far, including artwork and a trailer.
Natsu Dragneel, Fairy Tail's main protagonist, is pretty buff, which makes him look more like Goku from Dragonball Z than the lanky rubber man, Monkey D. Luffy.
Lucy Heartfilla (I'm not making these names up) is most likely the romantic interest/pain-in-the-butt for Natsu to play off of. Judging from her uh, character design, expect Lucy to be the butt of many a boob joke. Also, expect Lucy to be incredibly sunny and cheerful.Happy is a cat. He has wings!
Makarov is probably just what he looks like: a wise old mage with wisdom to impart. He's probably a perv too. ;)
Ezra looks like an antagonist. In every picture of her she's scowling, so if she's on the side of the heroes, she must be pretty pissed off at something. Maybe Natsu turns her off.
Gray looks to be the "eternal rival" type of guy, constantly trying to prove that he's a better mage than Natsu. He'es a total opposite of Natsu; his hair and clothes are dark, in contrast to Natsu's crazy pink hair and brighter style of dress; an easy way to contrast the two young mages. Gray uses electrical magic.
Put them all together and you have Fairy Tail! Crunchyroll (who seems to be picking up every show under the sun) has picked up Fairy Tail for internet broadcast, so if you want to see what Fairy Tail is about for yourself, you will have to not only sign up for Crunchyroll, but you will also have to become a paying member. That is a major bummer for the cash-strapped. Hopefully, Fairy Tail will make it to DVD on other shores.
