Nothing feels better than calling up all of your close friends, packing your treasured items, and traveling to a distant land that you've never seen before. These wonderful adventures are so packed full of excitement, and action that you never know what expect at any moment. Fairy Tail is just that type of adventure we all hope for, where we join a team of devoted individuals who only want to seek out the best in life and have a blast doing so. This series isn't the only action packed adventure out there, so we decided that we would update our previous six anime like Fairy Tail so that way, you could have a brand new experience like Natsu and his friends. If you'd like to check out the previous article, be sure to scroll down below to see more!
Fairy Tail tells the life of Natsu and his three wizard comrades from the notorious Fairy Tail Guild, on their epic journey to put an end to the terrible guilds that try to cause imbalance. Natsu forms friendships with new wizards along the way while his close friends Erza, Lucy, and Gray help to support him through the uncertain path that they've all decided on. While trying not to rack up too much debt from the clients they help, Natsu must now educate himself, while working together with his team to ensure the safety and security of the Fairy Tail Guild.

1. Naruto
- Episodes: 220
- Aired: October 3, 2002 - February 8, 2007
Naruto is one of Jump's most popular global franchises due to its great story and epic adventures. A huge demon known as Nine-Tails attacks the local village and leaves a trail of destruction behind. To put a stop to the onslaught and save what remained of the village, the fourth hokage sacrificed his own life and sealed Nine-Tails inside the newborn Naruto. The story continues as we follow Naruto Uzumaki, a young ninja that is constantly searching for recognition, and has dreams to become the top hokage in order to put a stop to all evil and become a strong leader for everyone.
If there is one thing that these two main characters share is an extreme loyalty to their friends. The moral behind their action packed adventures is that you can't truly enjoy any experience without the help and encouragement from those around you. Friendship is such an important aspect of all of the anime on our list, but Naruto really emphasizes it a lot throughout the story in a major way. You can't help but cheer for everyone as you watch them battle it out, while always making sure that everyone is on even ground.

2. Groove Adventure Rave [Rave Master]
- Episodes: 51
- Aired: October 13, 2001 - September 28, 2002
Many of us here at Honey's Anime took a liking to Rave Master and so we thought it would make a great piece in our wonderful puzzle of anime which relate to teamwork and adventure. A war had ensued between the forces of dark and light for stones known as Dark Brings, which contain immense power well beyond human ability. In order to seal the powerful darkness, a lone swordsman used the power of Holy Rave to destroy the source of the Dark Brings. This resulted in an explosion known as Overdrive, which destroyed a large chunk of the world, leaving fragments of Rave everywhere. Haru has inherited both the Rave and its guardian, Plue, making him the next Rave Master. With the aid of Elie and a drifter blacksmith by the name of Musica, Haru must scour the world in search of the scattered Rave Stones and put an end to the Dark Brings and Demon Card for good.
Fairy Tail and Rave Master share a great similarity in that they were both created by the same Mangaka, who poured his heart and soul into Rave Master. Natsu and Haru are very alike where they inherit a new power that allows them to fend off enemies, along with the help of team mates to ensure victory. We can’t forget that Plue shows up in both Rave Master and Fairy Tail. Elie is extremely determined to find out more about Rave fragments, and much like Lucy they both have a sharp awareness of their surroundings, using their level-headed approach to solve puzzles along the way. The similarities just don’t end.
3. One Piece
- Episodes: 300+
- Aired: October 20, 1999

Luffy takes us along with him on his amazing adventure as he sails out across the seven seas in hopes to find this sacred treasure that could change his life. Luffy’s goal is not to be a blood-thirsty, money driven pirate, but rather to embark on a journey with a good company of friends to support his passion. Following in the footsteps of his childhood hero, Luffy and the wide cast of comrades that travel alongside him experience crazy adventures, while uncovering dark mysteries and battling strong enemies along the way.
We can't help but stress the importance of having friends close by in order to keep you grounded. Luffy is surrounded by a large group of individuals, all of which have their own unique characteristics that make it such a blast to watch. Natsu and his team are very much the same, where there's never a time that anyone is alone. Everyone ensures that their powers are always combined in order to put a stop to the numerous evil encounters that await them. Luffy is always fired up and ready for something new and the same can be said for Natsu. The two never back down from a challenge, and when confronted with a problem they always do their best to use the right judgment to make it all work for the team.

To win back the trust and admiration of the kingdom, Meliodas must reunite with his team in order to reveal who the true culprit is and to put an end to the evil that's about to be unleashed to the world. Many of the knights have either been exiled or sealed away, so with the help of Elizabeth along with Hawk to lead the way, the mission to put an end to this uncertain terror begins.
This show is nothing short of amazing and its because it invites the viewer into a world full of great relationships that only blossom over time. We get to witness great chemistry between characters such as Meliodas and Elizabeth, while mascot characters like Hawk come in to iron out the more darker moments with some fantastic humor. They're both well balanced in that not one character is truly more over powered than the other, and that everyone contributes to the battle in their own effective way. No battle is ever boring as Meliodas always brings his cheer, Natsu brings his fiery energy, while Lucy and Elizabeth provide the balance to bring it all together.

Fairy Tail, the guild that has found its way inside of our hearts and our imaginations – but what else out there resembles it while we wait for the new episodes? That’s what I would like to take the time to tell you today, because as we all know Fairy Tail is more than just “some shounen show.”
With so much of an adventure and more than enough action, this is one of those shows that carries on the big adventure through more than just the standard 12-14 episodes and completely wraps us in its folds!
Similar Anime to Fairy Tail
1. One Piece
- Episodes: 676 (Ongoing)
- Aired: Oct 20, 1999 – Currently Airing
It’s a pirate’s life for me! Monkey D. Luffy is a pirate and always will be a pirate, with a sole mission in life: to become the Pirate King. Luckily (and also unfortunately) for him, he ate the Gum-Gum Devil Fruit which caused his entire body to turn gain rubber like qualities; although the downside is anyone who eats the fruit can no longer swim in the sea. This makes it pretty bad luck for a pirate, you know, being on the sea and all!
This is just like Fairy Tail in terms of adventure; the entire premise of the show is based on having a grand adventure! One Piece is definitely something to check out if you have yet to find something to fill your adventurers void!

2. Rave Master (Japanese: Groove Adventure Rave)
- Episodes: 51
- Aired: Oct 13, 2001 – Sep 28, 2002
Darkbring will to destroy the world if it’s not stopped, and the only way to do so is by collecting all the Rave Stones. Fifty years ago Darkbringer caused what is now known as “Overdrive,” the biggest explosion the world has ever seen, subsequently destroying 1/10 of it.
While this does seem like your average “collect them all to get stronger” anime, which it kind of is, there’s a full story behind that which is what makes it great. I won’t spoil anything for you because it’s something you just need to see to understand, but Haru Glory is one of my favorite main characters of any adventure anime!
3. Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic
- Episodes: 25
- Aired: Oct 7, 2012 – Mar 31, 2013
Remember Aladdin, and how he found the magical lamp that he used to save Princess Jasmine from the evil clutches of the dark sorcerer Jafar? Well this has nothing to do with that! The main character (or one of) is named Aladdin, except now he is the genie; although there is no magical lamp for him.
In the middle-ages on another world, Aladdin and Prince Alibaba travel around the world clearing “dungeons,” giant spires strewn about the land. At the end of each dungeon is a being of immense power that will grant the one who cleared it with a magical item!
This show goes beyond adventure, especially this season. With the friends travelling to all different lands to get stronger and Aladdin himself joining the country of magic (undercover), there’s more excitement packed into this little package than you would ever expect!

What would you do if your skates had little thrusters on them? If the answer wasn’t “try to fly” then this may not be the show for you! Minami didn’t really want to try riding Air Treck seriously, not until he got completely destroyed by a gang. After having his butt handed to him completely, he found a new pair of skates with a bunch of stickers from a different gang.
Throughout the show he makes friends, gets into territory battles and has one of the best adventures I’ve ever seen. Out of all the anime I’ve seen, this is one story that is not only more believable than the rest, but goes exactly with my own wish to fly. The story is fantastic, the animation and sequencing are top notch and the comedy is also highly entertaining!
