It’ll be one of the bigger series that FUNimation has dealt with in recent years that’s new, but the company has announced that they’ve picked up the remainder of Fairy Tail for license that runs through episode 175. They recently kicked off another 24 episodes in two collections in July and August of this year and the results from that and the previous four collections they released have done well enough to merit getting the rest, which is largely owed to the fans following through on promises to pick up on the releases. No scheduling at this point, but it’s expected more will be fast tracked.
Series concept: In the Kingdom of Fiore, powerful wizards make their living by joining magical guilds and contracting out their services to become “wizards for hire.” Harnessing the forces of Dragon Fire, Ice, Weaponry, and the Zodiac, four young wizards of the infamous guild Fairy Tail team up to seek their fortunes.
Growing stronger with every mission, they travel the countryside helping people and battling rival guilds, but with personalities as different as their magic skills, this team may end up doing more damage than good.
