Mashima had asked peminat-peminat in March to wait until he can announce some "good news" since the first Televisyen Anime adaptation of Fairy Tail ended that month. Mashima added on Twitter at the time, "It's actually not over yet. I can't say lebih than this, but I hope anda watch the rerun starting in April and wait for the hari I can announce some good news. […] Anime is not the end. Don't stop believing." The series concluded with a "To Be Continued" tajuk card.
Mashima also asked peminat-peminat in English on June 7 to "please wait until seterusnya week. anda will be surprised." However, that time he was not teasing good news, but talking about not discussing the spoilers in the following week's chapter.
