Silva, take it from me, for an anime to be deemed "too lame to read/watch" by me it would have to be complete SHIT, not giving the audience what they want at all. However that doesn't stop me from trying out any good manga I see, as long as it isn't too long. I weight the pros and cons and judge whether that series is fit for other people to watch, and I genuinely recommend Fairy Tail, it may have its bad points, but if you read RAVE, by the same author you will definitely get hooked to his works. RAVE is phenomenal! Sadly, the anime was cancelled but the manga is superb. Keep in mind that while RAVE is romance genre, Fairy Tail is not, so that effectively puts less focus on romantic relationships. Fairy Tail is famous for its "nakama speeches" which get pretty redundant and is one of the main sources for it to receive negativity. Also the author gets full of himself and removes the boundaries he places in the story.

Thankfully you won't notice many of Fairy Tail's faults until you reach at least episode 90.
