New chapters of Fairy Tail arrive regularly, and here is everything you need to know about where and when to read them.
The Legacy Continues
The success of any great shonen series relies heavily on its ensemble cast, and Fairy Tail boasts one of the most vibrant and beloved rosters in manga history. Chronicling the adventures of the world’s most chaotic magical guild, Hiro Mashima’s creation remains an iconic staple of the medium. Although the original anime concluded in 2019 and the main manga wrapped up in 2017, the franchise is still going strong with fresh content heading into 2026.
Publisher Kodansha quickly followed up the original series with the sequel manga Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest in 2018, which continues to release bi-weekly. Additionally, a brand-new continuation titled Fairy Tail Re: Fantasia launched on July 29, 2026, to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the franchise’s debut, adding even more magic to the lineup.
