Anime Differences

Anime version of this scene

Main article: Fairy Tail/Episode 097

This scene was adapted into the 97th episode of the Fairy Tail anime series. The changes made for the anime version aside from the altered design of Lucy's bathroom are:

• This scene appears to take place in the morning in the manga but takes place at night in the anime.
• The shot of Lucy showering is toned down in the anime focusing on her back view rather than her front view like in the manga.
• In the manga version Lucy is already showing while in the anime she was first shampooing her hair and then turns the shower on to rinse it.
• The anime doesn't show Lucy covering her breasts and crotch when she discovers Cana is in her bathtub.
• In the anime, Lucy is sitting down and leaning over her bathtub when Cana is stretching her leg but in the manga she was standing up in front of the shower and covering her breasts while Cana's head is blocking the view of the rest of Lucy's body. Water is also seen dripping off of Cana's foot in the manga version.
• The shot of Cana standing up in the bath is focused on the front of her body in the manga while the anime only shows her from the backside getting up.

Trivia

• This chapter is part of the Tenrou Island arc also known as the S-Class Exam arc.
• The bathtub is smaller in this specific scene than it is in any of the other scenes throughout the series that it appeared in.
• This is the first time Lucy Heartfilia is seen taking a Shower.
