Fairy Tail Creator Shares Special Look Yukino With New Art

By Nick Valdez

The series creator behind Fairy Tail, Hiro Mashima, has put the spotlight on Yukino Agria with some special new art shared with fans! The Fairy Tail original manga series might have come to an end some time ago, but the franchise has been living on in some pretty huge ways with an official sequel series that's even getting its own anime adaptation in the near future. The series has been kept alive by the creator behind the series as despite Mashima moving onto a completely new weekly serialization, he has often used some of his spare time to show some love for the Fairy Tail franchise and its various fan favorite characters.

These special sketches Mashima shares with Twitter highlight some of the creator's favorite characters with special looks outside of the context of the main series. The creator has been on a roll showing love to both Edens Zero and Fairy Tail more than ever in the last couple of weeks, and the latest bit of special art shared with fans on Twitter showcases just how memorable Yukino was as a member of the Sabertooth guild. You can check out Mashima's special new sketch for Yukino below: 

Yukino is one of the few fan favorites from the original series to make their return with the official sequel, Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest. This new sequel series will be launching an official anime adaptation of its own someday, but the potential release date, staff, or production studio has yet to be announced as of this writing. So if you wanted to get a jump start on the sequel before the anime makes its debut, Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest has been officially licensed by Kodansha Comics, and they describe the sequel series as such:

"Natsu, Lucy, Happy, Erza, and the whole Fairy Tail guild are back in action! And they've decided to tackle the '100 Years Quest' – a job no one's dared take on since the founding of the guild more than a century ago. A mysterious town, a baffling spirit, a ghastly new enemy…and a brand new continent to explore. When you're with real friends, the adventures never stop!"
