Manga Differences

Manga version's off screen implication

Main article: Fairy Tail/Other

The scene is an adaptation to the 106th chapter of the Fairy Tail manga series. In the manga, this scene is off screen but dialogue is heard of Lucy finding out that Plue deflates in the bath. The only part of the scene that is shown in the manga is the off screen implication where we see Lucy wearing a towel in front of the Mirror and Plue being deflated on the sink. Lucy's green towel is white in the manga for the obvious reason of manga being black and white.

Trivia

• In the series this bath scene is part of the "Fighting Festival arc".
• There is an inconsistency between this scene and episode 21 as Lucy took a bath with Plue in that one and he didn't deflate since she first learns he deflates in this one.
• This is the scene in Lucy Heartfilia's Ofuro to have Towel Bathing. The rest of the series, she bathes naked in it.
• This is the only towel bathing scene in Lucy's ofuro to not have a manga scene where she bathes without the towel.
