Appearance

Gray's most prominent feature is his spiky black-colored hair. He has dark blue eyes, and his body is toned and very muscular.[4]
After the Galuna Island mission, he gets a scar on his forehead above his left eye that is only partially covered by his hair.[5] His member stamp is below his collarbone on his right pectoral muscle and dark blue in color.[6]
Unlike almost all other characters, Gray does not consistently wear the same type of clothes (that is, when he is wearing some), though he is often shown wearing some kind of white coat.[7]
Still, his most consistent piece of clothing is his necklace, which looks like a sword with a stone in it (this is similar to the Rave Stone in Rave Master), and a metal bracelet and similar chain attached to his pants.[8]

Personality

Gray has a laid-back personality, but he will often get serious when the time calls for it.[9] He and Natsu have a friendly rivalry, and while they can often be seen fighting one another verbally or physically,[10] they are actually concerned about each other.[11][12] Gray was quite obstinate and reckless when he was younger.[13] Over time, he has attained a more cautious attitude towards life, and deals with problems carefully. He is really concerned about his comrades and is truly loyal towards the guild, but tends to trash talk every now and then.[14][15] Also, he has a disturbing habit of unconsciously removing his clothes at inappropriate moments.[16][17]

History



Ur trains Gray

Gray was from a village up in the North, but the entire village was destroyed by the demon Deliora. Gray's parents were killed in the incident as well. Lyon, along with Ul, a powerful ice Mage who Jellal claimed could have been one of the Ten Wizard Saints, came investigating Deliora's destruction, and found Gray alive among the ruins.[18] Ur took Gray in as her second student and taught him and Lyon Ice Make. Gray accepted the training in order to eventually avenge his deceased parents by killing Deliora using her unorthodox methods.[19] Gray also inherited the unusual habit of stripping unconsciously from Ur.[16]


Erza and Gray - hard start

When Gray heard of Deliora's current location, he decided to challenge it, ignoring Ur and Lyon's warnings.[13] Gray collapsed from battling Deliora and woke up to see Ur battling it. Ur told him to take Lyon and run. Gray carried Lyon and saw that Ur had lost her leg and replaced it with ice.[20] Suddenly, Lyon woke up and tried to cast Iced Shell, but Ur stopped him by freezing him. She explained to Gray that Iced Shell was the only thing that would beat Deliora, and was surprised to know that Lyon had tried to do what she planned. She then used Iced Shell which caused her body to be destroyed. Before turning into ice, she made Gray promise to tell Lyon that she died and told him to step into the future, since she would seal his darkness. The next day, Lyon woke up and discovered Deliora covered with ice and Ur's sacrifice. He blamed Gray for killing Ur.[21]
Following Ur's advice to find strong wizards in the west, Gray arrived at Fairy Tail and asks the master for a way to reverse the effects of Iced Shell. Makarov, however, tells him that the only method that can possibly reverse it would kill Ur in the process.[22]

Synopsis

Macao arc



Gray knows how to make a first impression.

Gray first appears when Natsu and Happy bring Lucy Heartfilia to Fairy Tail. He is sitting in his shorts - he forgot to wear his clothes - and he immediately gets into a fight with Natsu.[23] He stops when Makarov orders them to do so and he gets scolded by him about his accidental nudity during his missions.[24]

Daybreak arc



Gray fighting one of the Mages.

Gray finds out the reward for Natsu's latest mission and he quietly wishes him luck, saying things were going to be interesting.[25] Later, he was attacked by Natsu, when they were coming back from a job. He tells Natsu, Lucy and Happy that Erza Scarlet was coming back, which made them uneasy. They decide to head back, when they are ambushed by a band of Mages that want to eat Happy. Gray and Natsu defeat them and hear one of them mention "Lullaby".[26]

Lullaby arc



Natsu and Gray bicker behind Erza's back

Gray is about to get into a fight with Natsu yet again, but hearing about Erza's return from Loke makes him stop.[27] Later, he is forced to go on a mission with Natsu, Erza and Lucy, much to his chagrin, but he goes anyway.[28] On their way to their mission, he shows Lucy his abilities as an Ice Mage. Lucy then mentions that Gray's ice abilities and Natsu's fire abilities are probably what causes their quarrels.[29]


They forgot about Natsu.

When they get off the train, they continue to discuss the mission, only to realize that they forgot to bring the motion-sick Natsu with them.[30] After they are reunited with Natsu, they learn that Natsu had a confrontation in the train with a member of Eisenwald named Kageyama. Natsu states that he had a strange kind of flute. Lucy then pipes in at this moment, saying that she had only heard about it in books, but that it might be "Lullaby", the flute of death.[31]


Rayule appears

Eisenwald takes over the Oshibana train station and the five of them force their way in, quickly encountering Eisenwald and fighting him.[32] Erigor, however, has other plans and flees the scene with Gray and Natsu in hot pursuit.[33] However, the two decide to split up and Gray runs into one of Eisenwald's elite members, Rayule.[34]


Gray vs. Rayule

While the two are fighting, Gray learns about the plan to kill all the guild masters at their regular meeting. Gray promptly freezes Rayule's face, ending their fight.[35] He then informs Erza of this and they go to find Kageyama, so he can dispel Erigor's wind wall.[36] Kageyama, however, is stabbed in the back by Karacka, a fellow Eisenwald guild member, before he can help them.[37]


Gray loves being a man

After Lucy summons her new Celestial Spirit, Virgo, Gray compliments Virgo for being cute and as they escape, Gray is the only one to notice that Virgo and Lucy's skirts are flying up due to the wind. They then realize that Natsu and Happy are missing again.[38] As they chase Natsu and Happy with Kageyama, Gray gives him a speech about life and death, but the atmosphere is ruined when Lucy yells at Gray to kill Kageyama after he harasses her.[39]


Gray before Lullaby's true form.

They catch up to Natsu and Happy, only to see that Natsu has beaten Erigor. Gray, as usual, insults Natsu for having difficulties in the battle and insults him for his choice of clothes. As Erza congratulates the group for a job well done, Kageyama grabs the Lullaby flute and uses the Magic Four Wheel Drive to get to Clover Town, much to everyone's surprise.[40] Chasing after him, they arrive and see Kageyama with Makarov, and are about to go to him, but are stopped by guild master Bob and Goldmine. They then see that Makarov has persuaded Kageyama not to use the Lullaby's Magic. Suddenly, the flute itself starts to talk and transforms into a giant demon.[41]


Gray, Erza and Natsu vs Lullaby

Gray teams up with Natsu and Erza to defeat the demon. When the demon attacks Natsu, it misses and heads for the guild masters instead. To protect the guild masters, he uses Ice Make: Shield, and is complimented on how fast he can create the shield. He then proceeds to attack the demon with his Ice Make: Lance. With the three's combined efforts, Lullaby is defeated. However, they manage to accidentally destroy the Guild Masters' Meeting Building in the process, forcing the team and Makarov to hastily escape.[42]


Gray the intruder.

When they return, Gray arrives in Lucy's apartment, much to her dismay, to remind her that Natsu and Erza are about to begin their fight. As he watches, he is shocked to hear that Erza is to be arrested for property damage by the Magic Council.[43]

Galuna Island arc



Gray found them...

Gray waits for Erza's verdict like everyone else, but he learns that it was all a hoax and he voices his displeasure about that. Gray then falls prey, like everyone else, to Mystogan's Sleep Magic as he walks in.[44] After Mystogan leaves and lifts the Sleep Magic, Gray explains to Lucy about Mystogan's actions.[45] When Natsu, Happy and Lucy take the S-Class request to lift the curse of Galuna Island, Makarov orders Laxus to go after them, saying that he is the only one who can force them to come back. Gray stands up and volunteers to get them back instead.[46]


...but they are unstoppable

Gray catches up with the three in Hargeon, who are looking for a boat to take them to the island. Gray tries to persuade them to go back, but when Natsu resists, Gray tries to use Magic. Bobo, the boat owner, then spots them using Magic and tells them that he will take them to the island. Natsu sees this as an opening and knocks Gray unconscious, ties him up and brings him along. On their way to the island, Bobo shows them the island's demonic curse.[47] Bobo then vanishes, and although Happy checks to see if he had fallen into the water, he is nowhere to be found. All of this is rendered irrelevant when a large wave hits their boat and washes them ashore. Gray, now agreeing to help, goes with Natsu, Lucy and Happy towards the the island's village and meets its mayor, Moka, who asks them to destroy the moon.[48]


Gray's Fairy Tail mark
Deeming such a task impossible, they instead investigate the island's forest, getting attacked by a gigantic mouse which they defeat and in the process, locating an abandoned temple. Natsu, commenting on the decayed floor, begins to slam it with his foot, causing it to crumble and hurtle them downwards into a cavern, also making Happy almost swallow a bone he had found. Lucy saves him from choking by pulling it out his throat. In this cavern, they discover the frozen demon Deliora along with three Mages: Sherry, Yuka Suzuki and Toby. [Gray explains to the others what Deliora is: an immortal demon that destroyed Ishban 10 years ago, and was sealed by his teacher, Ur, at the risk of her life.[49]
First battle belongs to Lyon
The group decides to wait for the moon to come out to see its involvement with the frozen demon. Lucy brings out her Celestial Spirit Lyra to pass the time. Happy wants her to sing a fish song, but Lucy tells Lyra to sing anything she likes. When night arrives, they discover that the moonlight is hitting the demon via the ritual Moon Drip which would melt the ice. As the team is hiding, Reitei Lyon, Sherry, Yuka and Toby arrive. Retei Lyon inquires about the Moon Drip ritual, and orders the other three to obliterate the village.[50]
Natsu takes Gray with him

Enraged by the order given by Reitei Lyon, Natsu jumps out from hiding and attacks alongside Gray. Natsu is frozen, and Gray tells Happy to escape with Lucy while he continues to fight Lyon.[51] After Happy and Lucy leave, Gray kicks Natsu down the hill to protect him from Lyon's Magic. Gray then argues with Lyon about their motives, saying that Ur died to seal Deliora and that he is trying to destroy Ur's legacy. Lyon then asks him how he can live with the knowledge that he killed Ur.[52] The two then battle. While battling, Lyon reveals that he will resurrect Deliora in order to surpass Ur, and that he would defeat the thing that killed Ur. Gray tells him it's impossible, but Lyon reminds him that that was what they said to him, but he challenged Deliora anyway, resulting in Ur's death. Overcome with grief, Gray loses the battle and falls into unconsciousness. When he wakes up, he sees Natsu who carries him back to the village. On their way to the village, Natsu comforts him for losing, saying that they are from Fairy Tail, a guild that doesn't know when to stop.[53]


Gray chooses to continue fighting despite Erza's threat

While returning to the village, Gray falls unconscious again.[54] When Sherry, Yuka and Toby arrive at the village, the villagers take Gray, and leave Natsu and Lucy to fight them.[55] The next morning, he awakes to find Erza, who had come to return them to the guild. He tries to tell her the severity of the situation, but she states that she didn't care. This causes Gray to insult Erza for making him sick. He then tells her that he will save the people of the island, whether Erza likes it or not. After his lecture, Gray storms off to find Natsu.[56] While running towards the ruins, Erza, Lucy and Happy catch up with him, Erza now agreeing to help. He explains Lyon's motives, and reveals to the group that Ur is still alive.[57]


Gray ready to sacrifice his life

They see that the ruins are tilted, thanks to Natsu. Suddenly, they are attacked by Lyon's helpers, survivors from past attacks made by Deliora. Erza tells Gray to go while she, Lucy and Happy would hold them off.[58] Gray arrives at the ruins, and tells Natsu to stand back. He then confronts Lyon and tries to use Iced Shell.[59] Gray begins to use Iced Shell, but Lyon thinks he's bluffing, so he stands his ground. However, Natsu, knowing what Iced Shell would do to Gray, punches Gray, causing him to stop. Then the two bicker: Gray says that he is willing to die to stop Lyon, but Natsu tells him to stop running away. Suddenly, the ruins begins to retilt to its original position, thanks to Zalty. Angered, Natsu runs after him, leaving Gray to deal with Lyon. Gray tries to persuade Lyon to stop fighting, by telling him that Ur is still alive as the ice. However, Lyon stabs him with his sword and says that he knew it all along.[60] Gray falls to the ground and looks at Lyon, with eyes full of hatred and anger.[61]


Gray beats Lyon

An angry Gray then attacks Lyon, saying that he gave up on trying to save him. Lyon is surprised by the amount of energy Gray has left, and counter attacks by using his Ice Make: Dragon. Lyon says that Deliora will be revived soon because of Zalty, but Gray tells him not to underestimate Natsu.[62] As the two continue their battle, the ruins start to shake. Lyon tells Gray of everything they did in order to achieve this. Gray thinks it’s pointless, and when Lyon chastises him for playing in some guild, he simply counters by saying he followed Ur’s advice of finding more powerful opponents in the west. He then tells him of his first day at Fairy Tail, when the master told him that Ur’s condition was eternal. He then proclaims his disgust at Lyon’s actions, who can only see his ambitions. He attacks, but Gray disarms him, and blocks his Snow Tiger using his Ice Make: Prison. The tiger cannot release itself; Gray explains that it’s because Lyon's creatures are out of balance, having been created with one hand. He then uses his Ice Cannon to finish Lyon off. As he does, a cacophonic noise fills the air. Deliora is free and Gray’s only apparent choice to defeat it is Iced Shell.[63]


Punishment...?

Gray is face to face with Deliora. Natsu tells Gray that they should take it down, but Lyon interrupts, saying that he will defeat it to surpass Ur. Gray knocks him unconscious and starts to cast Iced Shell again. However, Natsu steps in front of Gray, stopping Gray from continuing the spell. As Deliora is about to attack Natsu, it starts to crumble into dust, much to everyone's surprise. They realize Deliora was long dead due to Ur's efforts, and Gray cries, thanking her for sealing his darkness.[64]
Back at the newly restored village (thanks to Zalty's Time Ark), Erza explains that the villagers' transformation into demons was false. She clarifies when she gets Natsu to help her "destroy the Moon", but what they really do is destroy an amnesia-causing barrier around the island that made the villagers think they were humans, when they were actually demons.[65][66]

Phantom Lord arc



Nice... Oops... I mean, I'm sorry.

When returning to the guild, everyone but Lucy is displeased at Erza for not letting them accept the reward of 7 million jewels. Lucy's exclusive happiness is due to her receiving the gate key of one of the Zodiac Celestial Spirits, Sagittarius, a reward for lifting the curse of Galuna Island. Happy suggests that they should sell it, to which Lucy disagrees. Erza then reminds them of their punishment, believing it will surely be "that" although what "that" is, is not explained. That's soon put out of their minds when they discover that the guild has been attacked by their long time rivals, Phantom Lord.[67] The team then confronts Makarov about the damages, but after hitting them on the head, Makarov tells them to ignore it. Gray and the others surprise Lucy when they welcome her to their own apartment, with Erza telling them they have to stick together in case anyone gets attacked. However, this has already happened to the members of Team Shadow Gear (Levy McGarden, Jet and Droy) who were injured and pinned to a tree. When Makarov discovers this, he proclaims war against Phantom Lord.[68] Gray attacks Phantom Lord alongside most of Fairy Tail, but they are forced to retreat when Makarov loses his Magical power.[69]
Back at the guild, Gray and the others are surprised at the revelation of Lucy's history and comforts her while she is depressed.[70] Just then, they feel the guild quaking and rush outside to see what the commotion is: the Phantom Lord Guild is literally walking towards them on six legs.[71] It attacks with its Magical Convergent Cannon - Jupiter, but Erza narrowly stops the powerful bullet from obliterating the guild, rendering her incapable to fight. Jose Porla calls out, demanding that they gave Lucy to him, but receives an adamant refusal. In response, he tells them to quiver for 15 minutes as Jupiter reloads. Rather than wait to be destroyed, Gray and Elfman follow Natsu and Happy to destroy the walking guild.[72]


Juvia's vision of Gray

In retaliation to the sabotaged cannon, Jose orders the guild to enter its more powerful form: Super Mage Giant Phantom MK II. Gray and Elfman arrive just in time to save the motion-sick Natsu from Totomaru, one of the members of the Element 4. Happy flies outside to see what's going on, and returns to tell them that the guild has become a gigantic Mage that is beginning to cast a spell called Abyss Break, which would destroy half of Magnolia. They then decide to split up to find the moving guild's power source.[73]
Gray goes to the roof where he meets Juvia Lockser, one of the Element 4, who shows an immediate romantic attraction to him. She begins by declaring her loss to him and leaves. However, she changes her mind and attacks Gray with her Water Lock. He quickly freezes his way out, but not without opening his wound from Lyon in the process. Gray strips as usual, causing Juvia to think that their relationship is going too fast. Gray then uses his Ice Make: Lance on her, but is surprised that the attack went right through her. As she tries to convince Gray to stop and hand over Lucy, Gray announces that he'll never give up a comrade, even if it means death. Juvia takes this the wrong way and believes that Lucy is Gray's girlfriend.[74]


Gray saves Juvia

She then gets angry at Lucy, confusing Gray, and attacks him with boiling water. He tries to freeze her water and he succeeds, but in the process, he accidentally grabs Juvia's breast. He quickly lets go and apologizes to her, which surprises her. She then tries to confess her love for him, but he mentions how the rain is depressing before she can say it. This sends Juvia into a rage and she attacks him again, but Gray prevails and defeats her, stopping the rain around her in the process.[75]
Later, he tries to fight Phantom Lord leader Jose Porla alongside Erza, Elfman and Mirajane, but given their already weakened states, Elfman, Gray and Mirajane are easily defeated while Erza tries to fight alone.[76] Makarov then reappears, and Gray leaves with Erza, Elfman and Mirajane to let him fight Jose.[77]
After Phantom Lord's defeat, Gray helps rebuild the guild, almost noticing Juvia spying on him. He then becomes surprised when he gets a lunch box from Juvia, not knowing that it was her who gave it when he said that he was hungry. Fearing what it could be, he gives the lunch box to Natsu. When Loke gives them Lucy's keys, Gray, together with Natsu, Erza and Happy, goes to Lucy's house, only to find a note saying I will go home. The team then goes after Lucy.[78] Upon arriving at Heartfilia mansion, they find Lucy leaving her house and are surprised to hear that Lucy's family owns the place. The team then returns to the guild.[79]
A few days later when the guild was accepting job requests again, Team Natsu becomes official and decides to take their first mission as an official team.[80] While doing the request, they manage to destroy half a road.[81]

Loke arc



Gray acting as the bad guy

Noticing Lucy worrying over her little amount of money, Mirajane suggests they do a simple acting job at a theater. Happy is given the task of carrying a dragon suit that Natsu is in, and they are given a week to rehearse. Their show is atrocious, makes little sense and they eventually destroy the theater, but despite all this, they are hailed as a success to the point that they're kept there for another week, doing three performances a day.[82]
They go out on another job and chance upon Loke after swiftly completing it. Seeing how they completed it so quickly, they decide to stay the night in Balsam Town. Natsu, Erza and Gray have a pillow fight.[83] Gray wins, but Natsu is being a sore loser about it and they both ask Lucy to back them up. An agitated Lucy silences Natsu and Gray's bickering, a feat only Erza could do.[84]
Later, when Lucy goes back to her apartment, Gray suddenly barges in, saying that Loke had left Fairy Tail. After hearing this, they all go to look for him.[85]

Tower of Heaven arc



Gray and Juvia meet Simon

Shocked by the announcement that Loke is a Celestial Spirit, Lucy explains to Natsu, Gray and Happy that he is actually Leo the Lion, leader of the Zodiacs. Considering how he can no longer spend long periods of time in the human world anymore, Loke gives the four of them, as well as Erza, a ticket to a fancy resort.[86] Juvia follows them and secretly spies on Gray. She then approaches Gray in the casino.[87] While chatting, they are attacked by Simon, a tall and ruthless Mage who specializes in Darkness Magic, who asks them for Erza's whereabouts.[88] Gray is able to escape the ambush with Juvia's help, by being hidden inside her water body.[89]
With Erza and Happy kidnapped, the team plus Juvia decide to rescue them using Natsu's nose to track Erza.[90] As they get to the island on which the Tower of Heaven stands, they find Erza and she explains her past to them.[91] After Erza finishes telling her story, Simon and Sho arrive and join the team to stopJellal Fernandes.[92] When Jellal activates the Heaven's Game, Sho traps Erza in one of his cards in order to protect her and runs off, wanting to fight Jellal himself. Simon leaves the group to follow Sho, leaving Gray, Juvia and Lucy to find Natsu.[93] But Gray goes after Sho, and entrusts to Lucy and Juvia the task of finding Natsu.[94]


Gray attacked by Fukuro's Dragon Roar (from Natsu)

Later, he runs into the Death's Head Caucus Guild's Trinity Raven member, Fukuro, who had absorbed Natsu and begins using his flames on Simon and Happy; the two begin to battle.[95] Gray is able to withstand the heat of Natsu's stolen fire attacks and is able to freeze the flames, though Gray comments that Natsu had a stronger fire. Soon, Fukuro tries to absorb him, but Gray manages to freeze him enough to make him withdraw.[96] In a fit of rage, he then uses Ice Blade: Seven Slice Dance to defeat Fukuro and free Natsu.[97] During the fight, Gray takes a fair amount of damage and Simon asks Happy to take him outside the tower to recover.[98] They flee the island on a boat along with Juvia, Lucy, Wally and Millianna, and watch as the weaponized satellite Etherion strikes the tower.[99]
Thinking that Erza and Natsu might have died, they are all highly relieved when the two of them arrive on the shore.[100] They recover in a hotel where Natsu sleeps for three straight days and wakes up after Gray belittles him - but this is only for a moment.[101] He eventually stays awake and they socialize with their previous enemies, before sending them off with a fireworks display.[102]

Fighting Festival arc

When they return to the guild, they find its reconstruction complete and Cana Alberona shows them around. Makarov startles them with the introduction of two new members: Juvia and Gajeel, their previous enemies. After settling down, they sit down for a a song from Mirajane; this calm state doesn't last long, however, as the two Dragon Slayers soon cause a large brawl.[103] A reporter comes the next day to write about the guild, and asks Gray why he was always undressing to which he angrily replies that he is not a pervert.[104] The master also instructs Gray to accompany Juvia on a mission, since she is a new member.[105]
During the Miss Fairy Tail Contest a week later, Gray is seen watching the girls showcase their talents until a member of the Thunder God Tribe, Evergreen, appears and turns all the girls to stone. Soon, the other two members, Bickslow and Freed, make their entrance along with Laxus. Laxus proposes a game to find out who is the strongest in Fairy Tail, and Natsu replies with much enthusiasm.[106] Laxus holds the girls as hostages and threatens to smash them if they don't participate or break the rules. With a time limit of three hours to find and defeat them before the girls crumble to dust, the members of Fairy Tail rush out and the Battle of Fairy Tail begins. However, Makarov isn't able to go through the door because of Freed's runes. Gray then leaves to find Laxus, promising to beat him even if he was the master's grandson.[107]
Gray goes and fights Bickslow and quickly starts to overpower him. However, Bickslow starts to use his dirty tricks and traps Gray in one of Freed's enchantments, where no one is allowed to use Magic; this leaves Gray with no other choice but to try to attack with his fist. Since Bickslow's Magic allows him to attack from the outside, Gray is defeated.[108]


Gray's anger
Gray and Juvia on Fantasia Parade

After Laxus activates his Hall of Thunder, Gray manages to recover and find Warren Rocko. Using Warren's Magic, they are able to explain the situation to the other recovering Fairy Tail members. After initially bickering, the guild members are able to get along and destroy Laxus's Hall of Thunder spell and save the town. However, due to the Living Link Magic Laxus put on them, which causes the spell to counter attack with a lightning strike, all the guild members take more damage, but manage to live through it and are happy to survive.[109]
After Laxus is defeated, the guild still decides to participate in the Fantasia parade.[110] During the parade, Gray and Juvia perform on the same float as the king and queen of a frozen kingdom.[111] Gray, along with the rest of the guild, also signals to the excommunicated Laxus that they will always be looking out for him.[112]
A few days after the festival, Team Natsu decides to take a job: to capture the escape convict Velveno. Gray is seen surprised when Lucy suddenly leaves to head to Acalypha.[113] Gray, along with the rest of Team Natsu, follow Lucy to the LOVE & LUCKY guild and are surprised to learn that she defeated the Naked Mummy Guild by herself; they also inform her that because she ran off, they cancelled the mission.[114]

Oración Seis arc



They aren't the "coolest"...

Gray assists Lucy in paying the rent by helping her at a restaurant, and when they return to the guild, Mirajane explains about Dark Guilds and their power over the Magical underworld.[115][116] Makarov then arrives and announces that an alliance of guilds are going to take down one of the strongest three dark guilds, Oración Seis.[117]
Makarov chooses Gray together with Natsu, Erza, Lucy and Happy to act as their delegates.[118] At the meeting place, Gray is surprised to see his former training partner Lyon, now a member of the Lamia Scale Guild and also one of its delegates, and is even more surprised when Cait Shelter Guild's delegate arrives, which happens to be a 12 year old girl named Wendy Marvell.[119][120] Her talking cat also appears and tells them that despite her appearance, Wendy is a powerful Mage.[121] After the matters are settled, the group discusses who the Oración Seis are and their plan to stop them; after they are done, they then head off to find them.[122]


Gray beats... Gray?!

When the alliance unexpectedly finds their target, Gray tries to aid his allies against the six Mages by fighting Racer and Angel, but he ultimately fails like the others.[123] When Brain spots Wendy and grabs her, Wendy tries to reach for Charle, but grabs Happy by mistake as the two are kidnapped. After being saved from death by Jura Nekis and Ichiya Wanderlei Kotobuki, the group notices that Erza has been poisoned, causing the members to argue amongst themselves on how to handle the situation. Charle, however, is the one who calms everyone down, revealing that Wendy is the Sky Dragon Slayer and her healing Magic could fix the problem. But to rescue her, the group has to work together to achieve their goal. The others agree and rally together, before splitting up to find their kidnapped comrades.[124]
Gray goes with Natsu and Charle as they explore the area, Natsu taking the time to ask Charle about Wendy's Dragon Slayer Magic before the three are ambushed by members from the Naked Mummy Guild (one of the dark guilds under Oración Seis).[125] While Gray and Natsu are fighting the guild, Charle hangs back to watch.[126] After all guild members are defeated, they try to interrogate the members about the location of the Oracion Seis' hideout.[127] Later, they reach an cave entrance to the Oración Seis base, but come into confrontation with Racer. Gray holds him off while Natsu and Charle enter the cave to look for their friends.[128]


Gray on a motorbike from Dead Grand Prix

While Gray and Racer are battling, they notice Natsu, Happy, Wendy and Charle flying above them. Racer attacks them, causing them to fall and knock Wendy, Happy and Charle unconscious. Natsu carries the three and runs off. Racer tries to go after them, but Gray manages to stop him by using his Ice Make: Rampart, giving Natsu the time to run for it and angering Racer.[129]
Racer taunts Gray and activates his Magic, Death Grand Prix, causing multiple motorcycles to appear and charge towards Gray. Racer then hops on one of them and attacks Gray himself. Gray also hops on a motorcycle and the two start a race. While Racer is attacking Gray, Gray is having trouble attacking back since it is difficult to drive and use Magic at the same time. While racing, Gray spots Lyon and Sherry, and asks Lyon to hop on as well. With Gray driving and Lyon attacking, they are able to destroy Racer's motorcycle, thus ending the race. Racer counter attacks and knocks them off their motorcycle as well. Gray and Lyon attack Racer with their Ice Make Magic, but Racer easily dodges their attacks and attacks them. Lyon then whispers to Gray that he found Racer's weakness.[130]


Once again, Gray and Lyon team up

After whispering something in Gray's ear, Lyon freezes him much to Racer and Sherry's surprise. Lyon then calls Sherry to help him, saying that Lamia Scale will take the glory. Lyon and Sherry then attack Racer. However, Racer easily overpowers Sherry, causing Lyon to run away, but Racer easily catches up to him, attacks him and pins him to the ground, pulling out a knife and threatening Lyon's life. However, Lyon smiles and reveals his and Gray's plan. Gray unfreezes and shoots Racer with his ice arrow from a long distance, defeating him. As Gray makes his way to Lyon and Sherry, saying that they had won, Racer gets back up in an attempt to kill them, along with himself, with a bomb. However, Lyon tackles him down the cliff before the explosion activates in order to save Gray and Sherry.[131]


Gray beats Racer

After he and Sherry watch in horror, Gray decides to go look for Lyon, not believing that he is dead.[132] While Gray searches for Lyon, Sherry, having been completely turned to darkness by Nirvana's activation, attacks Gray from behind with her Wood Doll, seemingly knocking him unconscious.[133] Gray later regains consciousness and manages to stop Sherry who was attacking Natsu and Lucy, in order to avenge Lyon's death. He pins her to the ground when Lyon suddenly arrives, heavily wounded, but alive. Upon seeing Lyon, the darkness leaves Sherry and she is returned to the light.[134] Later, when Nirvana's second stage is activated by Brain, Gray, Natsu and Lucy are seen climbing one of its legs.[135] When Nirvana starts to move, Natsu's motion sickness kicks in, causing him to fall off, but Happy is able to save him. The team then decides to split up, with Happy and Natsu going in first while Gray and Lucy follow.[136]


Gray tries to stop Sherry

As Gray and Lucy enter Nirvana, they meet up with Jura and the Nirvana-affected Hoteye, who explains to them the power of Nirvana; however, as they leave to assist Natsu, Midnight appears and attacks them. Hoteye is able to save them and tells them to leave while he fights Midnight.[137] Gray, Lucy and Jura manage to find Natsu as he is being dragged off by Brain, who was planning to make Natsu one of his new members after seeing him defeat Cobra. Brain then reveals to them his plan of attacking Wendy and Charle's guild. Jura asks him for the reason and attacks Brain when he does not answer, causing Gray and Lucy to comment on Jura's strength.[138] Jura then continues to attack Brain and effortlessly defeats him. Charle and Wendy arrive just at that moment, and Wendy's Sky Dragon Slayer Magic cures Natsu and Happy's injuries and also casts Troia, which counters Natsu's motion sickness.[139][140]
Wendy rushes away, Charle with her, and the rest of them receive a message from an enemy who is now their ally, Hoteye, via telepathy. He tells them that the strongest of the Oración Seis, Midnight, is directly below them and that his defeat will stop Nirvana. They rush downwards, but at the last moment discover it's Brain's trap.[141] The group is saved by Jura's timely intervention who is heavily damaged by the ambush and rendered unconscious.[142] As they try to make sure he's okay, Brain's staff, Klodoa, laments about Brain's pathetic power, and that he should just defeat them himself before being captured by Natsu and slammed around. He frees himself from Natsu's grip and tells them of their plan: to destroy the Cait Shelter guild so Nirvana can never be resealed.[143][144]
Klodoa begins to bash them, but abruptly stops when he feels that the Six Demons have all been defeated and that this will herald the arrival of Brain's split personality, the vastly powerful and bellicose Zero. Sure enough, Zero arrives and easily defeats the team.[145] Nirvana then arrives at Cait Shelter and Zero orders it to attack. The powerful blast from Nirvana is, however, stopped with another strike from the combined efforts of the other alliance members who managed to get the Magical bomber ship Christina up and working again, which was shot down by Oración Seis beforehand. Hibiki Laytis, piloting the ship, telepathically details how to stop Nirvana: destroy the six lacrima crystals within Nirvana's legs that serves as its power source simultaneously. Zero interrupts, using telepathy himself, saying that their plan is futile as he stands in front of one crystal and will prevent anyone from trying to destroy it. The other alliance members desperately call on Natsu, Gray, Lucy and Happy to get up and they comply.[146]


Gray destroys one of the lacrimas

Using the map that Hibiki had downloaded into their heads, the group decides on which lacrima they will go to. After choosing, Happy reminds them that if they find Zero, they will have to take him down themselves and that they have no backup.[147] Gray manages to destroy one of the six Lacrima while Natsu manages to defeat Brain, stopping Nirvana once and for all.[148]
Everyone is then re-united when the New Magic Council's law enforcer Rahal shows up to arrest Hoteye for being part of the Oración Seis, and Jellal for his crimes in the past.[149] As Jellal willingly gives himself up to the Council just like Hoteye, an enraged Natsu starts attacking the Council and tries to bring Jellal back for Erza, and so he could join them as he was already "one of us" when he helped defeat Brain. Gray soon joins in and this convinces all the other Mages to help fight to get Jellal back, while Jellal and Erza can only look on painfully. As the Council fights back, ordering them to arrest every single Mage rebelling against them as well, Erza suddenly yells for everyone to stop. With that, he is taken away and everyone looks on sadly.[150]

Edolas arc 



Gray in Juvia's tears

Gray returns to the guild amid the celebration of Wendy and Charle's induction into Fairy Tail. He is especially greeted with enthusiasm by Juvia, who almost drowns him and a few other Fairy Tail members with her waterfall tears as she expresses her worry.[151] A few days later, the bells chime, signaling the return of Gildarts Clive, Fairy Tail's strongest Mage under Makarov.[152] When Gildarts arrives and explains that he had failed the job, Gray is seen surprised with the rest of the guild.[153] A few days later, Gray teaches Juvia how to eat some Caramade Franks while Alzack and Bisca watches them, wishing that their relationship was like theirs.[154] Gray, along with the rest of the guild and Magnolia town, is then sucked into Edolas by the Anima.[155]


Gray and Erza join the fight

Gray re-appears just when Erza Knightwalker is about to kill Happy. He and Earthland Erza beat up a few guards and declare Erza Knightwalker an enemy of Fairy Tail.[156] Although a few soldiers mistake him as Gray Surge, he does not care and demands to know where all of their crystallized companions were, while he attacks the soldiers of Edolas and Erza fights her Edolas counterpart. After hearing Wendy's scream, Gray frees Lucy of her handcuffs and proceeds to where the Dragon Slayers are held captive.[157] While running, Gray reveals that the Lacrima that was at the center of the Capital was trapping both him and Erza, and that Gajeel was the one that released them from the Lacrima state, stating that Dragon Slayer Magic has the ability to release their trapped companions. With that, he asks Happy to support Gajeel and release their trapped companions near Extalia. Arriving at the room, Gray, Lucy, and Charle fin both Natsu and Wendy unconscious on the ground. Gray immediately feeds Natsu and Wendy some X-Balls, a medicine that allows Earth Land Mages to use their Magic in Edolas. After Wendy wakes up and Natsu runs to stop the King's plan, Wendy explains to Gray, Lucy, and Charle that the Royal Army is trying to use the Giant Lacrima stationed near Extalia as a bomb to destroy the Kingdom of Extalia.[158]
Natsu runs back to the group after seeing Erza battling Erza Knightwalker. At first, Natsu is confused about the situation until Lucy and Wendy explain that Gajeel, Gray and Erza showed up. Now cleared up, the group splits into two: Gray traveling with Natsu and Lucy to find the king, while Wendy and Charle go to Extalia to warn the Exceeds.[159] Gray and Lucy suspect that the king is in some important place, but Lucy starts to wonder since the courtyard and prison were in such strange locations for a castle. Natsu and Gray then say that in short, the place has a strange layout. Lucy responds by saying she wouldn't be surprised if there was an amusement park, and to their surprise, her prediction really came true a few seconds later. However, Sugarboy and Hughes are inside the park, and they prepare to battle the three.[160] Hughes starts the battle by sending a viking ship straight into their path, but Gray blocks it with his Ice Shield. As Natsu then flies off to battle Hughes, Sugarboy traps both Gray and Lucy by making the ground soft, sinking them waist-deep. Gray then uses his strength to throw Lucy up, freeing her to help Natsu. He then creates two grappling hooks and escapes, before making a giant death scythe to attack Sugarboy. However, his Magic proves ineffective because Sugarboy's weapon, Rosa Espada, makes anything limp and soft, which includes ice.[161]


Gray creates a duplicate of the key

Later, when Sugarboy steals the key from Coco and slides away, Gray reappears while riding a motorcycle and begins chasing after Sugarboy.[162] Sugarboy tries to stop Gray using Rosa Espada on a section of the ground, but Gray merely dodges it and continues. As the chase continues, Gray asks how Sugarboy could keep sliding, to which the latter has no idea as well. He then asks the purpose of the key, to which Sugarboy explains that it's meant to activate the Dragon Chain Cannon. Gray then freezes the ground, which causes Sugarboy to slide out of control as Rosa Espada can't change the properties of the materials that it softens. With Sugarboy stopped and distracted by the motorcycle that he threw, Gray takes the opportunity to grab and freeze the key, hoping it would shatter, but to no avail. Realizing that it wouldn't shatter that easily, Gray decides to freeze it so that it can never be used. Sugarboy says that he can just soften the ice to get the key, but hesitates to do so when Gray explains that he may limp the key as well. The two begin to fight again, but when the key begins to crack, Sugarboy tries to stop their fighting. Gray doesn't stop, as it concerns their companion; Sugarboy then tells him that the cannon can return their friends back to normal if fired on the lacrima itself. As Sugarboy tries to buy some time, Gray shatters the key. Angered by what Gray did, Sugarboy attacks Gray with Rosa Espada, but is defeated with Gray's finishing technique, Ice Blade: Seven Slice Dance. While Sugarboy yells at him for Gray's recklessness, the latter creates a duplicate of the key using Magic.[163] Natsu later catches up to him and learns that Gray can make a copy of the key. He then explains that they need to use the cannon and fire it on the Lacrima instead of the island it is floating on, so that the Dragon Slayer Magic will transfer to the lacrima and destroy it, thus releasing their friends. Suddenly, Erza arrives with a plan. She ties them up and brings them to the king.[164]


When the two Grays meet...

Upon entering the royal chamber, the king asks where the key is, and Erza tells him that Gray can make a copy of the key with his Magic. Erza pretends to threaten Natsu's life, giving Gray the chance to try to change the course of the cannon to save his friends, but fails to find where to change it. Erza then releases Natsu, who attacks the guards, while she grabs hold of the king and threatens to kill him if they don't change the target. The plan almost works, but Erza Knightwalker arrives and attacks Erza, causing her to let go of the king. With the king safe, the guards fire the cannon. Lucy then arrives with Coco on her Legion. Gray, Natsu and Erza climb on, and they try to stop the island from crashing into Extalia.[165] Gray, along with the Fairy Tail members and the Exceeds, manages to hold the lacrima island long enough for Mystogan to send it back to Earthland, saving everyone. Just when everyone thinks it is over, the Edolas Royal army arrives.[166] After the arrival of Dorma Anim, he, along with Erza, Lucy, Coco, Happy and Charle helps to save the Exceeds from being turned into lacrima.[167] While riding on her own Legion, Erza Knightwalker shows up and blasts Coco's Legion, sending it to the ground. Happy holds onto Lucy, and Charle holds onto Gray and Coco as they see Erza fight Erza.[168]
Lucy, Coco, Gray, Happy and Charle fall into a forest and Lucy gets upset for Happy dropping her, but he says she is heavy. Edolas troops show up. The troops spot Charle and Happy and aim to turn them into lacrima since they are the only two left. Gray attacks and protects them.[169] Lucy summons Loke while Charle and Happy dodge the beams of Magic, but Charle jumps in front of one to protect Happy. They start to lose when even more reinforcements arrive, but Edolas Fairy Tail comes to the rescue and helps them fight.[170] When Mystogan starts taking all the Magic away from Edolas, the troops lose their Magic weapons and retreat. Everyone panics, including Edolas Fairy Tail.[171] Finally, when all the Magic is gone, all the Earthland Fairy Tail members start being sucked into the Anima and return back to their home. Gray tells the Edolas Fairy Tail that they can still be a guild even without Magic.[172] They all say goodbye to Edolas Fairy Tail and Coco.[173]
After the Exceeds leave, Pantherlily arrives in his new smaller form, and everyone is shocked to see that he has captured Lisanna.[174] Everyone is confused about Lisanna's reappearance, thinking that she is the Edolas Lisanna. When Lisanna sees Natsu, she hugs him and Happy tightly, and tells Gray and Erza that its been a long time. Gray then asks if she is Earthland Lisanna, to which she answers yes, much to everyone's surprise.[175] After clarifying everything, Gray, along with the others, helps Lisanna get back to her mourning siblings and watches their tearful reunion.[176]

Tenrou Island arc



Gray and Loke team up

While the guild is celebrating Lisanna's return, Gray and the others tell all the guild members about Edolas and their counterparts. During the process, he can't stop thinking about Cana's counterpart and how she dressed, to the point where he tried not to laugh.[177] Shortly after, he enters into another battle within the guild and ends up overexerting himself, and falls asleep with the rest of the guild.[178][179]


Gray vs Mest

A few days later, he, like several other guild members, started taking up numerous jobs to gain recognition for the annual Fairy Tail event.[180] The next day, the master appears alongside Erza, Mirajane and Gildarts to announce the start of the annual S-Class Wizard Promotion Trial. Gray is announced as one of eight candidates who will be participating.[181] After the ceremony, he is seen talking to his friends about the contest. At first, Juvia wants to quit the trial because she wanted to be Gray's partner; however, Gray tells them that he already has a partner, Loke, who shows up and tells Lucy that their contract is cancelled during the duration of the trial.[182]


Gray Secret Technique: Dried Plume Attack!

A week later, Gray, along with the other participants, head towards the island and complains about the scorching heat despite it being winter. He strips so much that he even removes his underwear, much to Juvia's enjoyment. After the master appears and tells the teams about the first trial, he becomes trapped in Freed's runes, along with several others. After the runes are removed, he freezes the ocean to make a path and slide to the island.[183] Gray and Loke manage to choose a battle path and face off against Mest and Wendy. Their fight ends somewhat quickly as they had managed to knock out Mest, and they go on ahead.[184]


Passed!

As they were walking through, they start talking about Mest. They both mention that although Mest came close to winning last year, they expected him to be stronger, but Loke says that they also had gotten stronger. They later wonder who his partner was last year, but neither of them seem to remember. When Gray and Loke meet up with the others, the master arrives. When the master announces how Cana and Lucy defeated Freed and Bickslow, and how Natsu managed to clear Gildart's barrier and passed, he expresses great surprise. He later asks master about how Juvia is doing, and is somewhat disappointed when the master says they met up with Erza and lost. They realize Elfman and Evergreen are the only ones left, and that they had to have met up against Mirajane and lost.
However, Elfman and Evergreen appear and the master says it's time to start the second trial. Shortly after, Natsu comes to terms with what Gildarts told him, and he challenges Gray and the other remaining contestants to see who will be the new S-class Mage. Gray simply replies that Natsu is the only one he doesn't want to lose to and that he accepts his challenge.[185]


Monsters are all around

When the second trial to find Mavis's grave begins, Gray and Loke get chased by vicious birds. With a scared expression on his face, Gray brags that the challenge isn't hard yet if it means becoming an S-class Mage. Loke just remarks on how Gray is acting tough.[186] Later, Gray is seen with Loke overhearing what Lucy says about the second exam being about intelligence, and thinks that she figured out where the grave is. Then they decide to follow Cana and Lucy, with Gray telling Loke that the second exam is also about greed.[187]


Gray and Loke vs members of Grimoire Heart

While following Lucy and Cana, Gray and Loke notice the warning signal that was launched by Erza that indicated that the exam was on hold, and that everyone must prepare for battle against an enemy. They first emerge from their hiding spot near Cana and Lucy, and are seen scolding Cana for wanting to continue the exam, and telling her that they should head back to the emergency meeting spot together.[188] However, bubbles arrive from the sky containing numerous Grimoire Heart Guild members, whom the four mostly dispatch with ease.[189] The remaining Grimoire Heart members are suddenly transported away by Caprico, who has come to fight them.[190] Right at the start of the fight, Caprico pummels them all with powerful kicks, prompting Gray to comment on his strength.[191]
The group then questions Grimoire Heart's goals, and as everyone prepares to fight again, Loke tells the others to leave so he can fight their opponent one on one. Gray says that all four of them are having a difficult time fighting their opponent, but Loke explains that their opponent uses Human Subordination Magic, which weakens the battle and Magic power of humans (but not Celestial Spirits). He then tells them that their opponent is the Celestial Spirit Capricorn, surprising Gray. Loke then yells for the others to go, and though Lucy is reluctant to leave his side, Gray and Cana persuade her to trust him and the three depart.[192]
As the three walk together, Cana suggests that they split up. Although he is reluctant to, he agrees and walks off alone.[193] While walking, Gray states Cana has a bad sense of humor, and he then realizes that he has never seen her drink since she entered Tenrou Island, making Gray wonder if she is just sober. Suddenly, he senses someone's presence. He hides behind a tree and notices Ultear walking past, speaking about Zeref. He at first mistakes her for Ur, but realizes that she is not, but a member of Grimoire Heart, and wonders who she is and why she resembles Ur.[194]
