Fairy Tail is popular with the values of friendship as its theme. The manga has shown a lot of tear-jerking stories of good friends fighting each other off to death and reconciling afterward. The upcoming Fairy Tail Chapter 501 will show not just one but two huge battles between comrades Dimaria against Brandish, and Natsu Dragneel against Gray Fullbuster.
During the previous chapter, Gray learned about Natsu's true identity as the "Ethereal Natsu Dragnel" or the "E.N.D." Fans have speculated that a battle between the two is inevitable as the author, Hiro Mashima, is reported to be setting up a Natsu versus Gray finale in Fairy Tail Chapter 501.
With this recent development in the story, as per report of Yibada, some fans are led to believe that Gray would confront his friend in a battle, fulfilling his goal of destroying the E.N.D. However, fans are hopeful that the two will eventually make up as the show reveals a bigger and more powerful enemy in the form of Acnologia. To compensate for the immense power of this common enemy, Natsu and Gray will set their differences and team up.
Another fight, which is more deadly and most likely to happen in Chapter 501, is between Dimaria and Brandish. It can be recalled that in Fairy Tail Chapter 500, Brandish spared the lives of Natsu and the rest of his friends. Dimaria was upset by this act and considered it as a betrayal towards emperor Zeref. Game N Guide reports that if Dimeria lets her anger rule her and summons the god Chronos, she might end up killing her old friend.
Apparently, more epic battles will be seen in Fairy Tail Chapter 501 which is set for release on September 14. Stay tuned to see who lives for another chapter of Fairy Tail!
