100YQ Chapter 208 - Gray's dialogue (raw breakdown)

It's been quite awhile since I did one of these! I just wanted to touch on some aspects of the chapter, mainly Gray's inner thoughts on the first page, and final pages. In regards to the structure of chapter 208, it’s not that Gray suddenly “realized” how much he loves Juvia in that moment because she was about to die again. No. Everyone knows Gray has loved Juvia for a long time (including Gray himself) as supported by the manga/official content.

Using the official translation, Gray’s full reflection (in this chapter) is: “It was normal to have them by my side. I’ve been supported by Ur… by Lyon… by Fairy Tail….and by Juvia. I never…noticed… I took it for granted that she was always by my side… so I never noticed… how I feel… That I love her this much…”

Gray is the narrator of this chapter. It’s from his POV. During the final pages, he was actually finishing a thought he had already started from the first page. Let's break it down starting with page one.

そばにいるのがあたり前になっていた → “Them being by my side had become something normal.” なっていた = past progressive This is clearly past tense, describing a state that had already become true.

支えられ… / 支えられてきた “I was supported…” / “I had been supported…” (by them, and by Juvia) 支えられてきた = “have been supported up until now” (past → present continuity) This is past-oriented narration, specifically: Past state (なっていた) Ongoing past into present (〜てきた)

So it’s not a sudden realization — it’s Gray reflecting on something that had already been true for a long time.

気付いて...なかった... → "I hadn't... noticed..." (past negative)

そばにいるのがあたり前すぎて… → “I just really took having you/her near me/by my side for granted…” (present form いる, but describing a continuing state in the past context)

気付いてなかったんだ… → “That I hadn't noticed…” (past negative) 自分の気持ちに… → “My own feelings…”

こんなに好きだって事に… Konnani suki datte koto ni… → “That I love you/her this much…” (好きだ / I love you/her = present tense, but here it reflects a realization about feelings that existed already)

Even though the Japanese raw uses some present forms (いる, 好きだ), the main verb 気付いてなかった (didn’t realize) puts the whole statement in a past realization context. So yes, it expresses a realization in the past about feelings that were already there. At the beginning of the chapter, Gray is reflecting on the people who have always been by his side, and he specifically ends that thought with Juvia. The final pages simply complete that same reflection as everything unfolds. So this isn’t a brand-new realization—it’s a continuation.

Again, the manga has shown that Gray has loved Juvia for a long time, repeatedly. What this moment does is highlight just how deep those feelings are, NOT introduce them for the first time (obviously). Furthermore, Gray using こんなに (konnani) “this much” can also be translated as “to this extent”. Essentially, he loves her SO MUCH IT HURTS and didn't realize his feelings were to this extent until now. Which is backed by his “she’s my power to live” statement from the Aldoron arc. In Japanese, that means “because there is you, I am living”. I see where the confusion comes in because Mashima structured the chapter in a way that can make it seem like Gray is only now realizing his love, but in reality, he’s putting into words something that’s been there for a while. And since the chapter ends on an ellipsis, it feels like Gray hasn’t even fully finished expressing those thoughts yet. Hopefully Mashima expands more on them next chapter. Bonus: The chapter cover is adorable!! And the title...... 氷の愛 (Kōri no ai) Ice Love ....is perfect. :)

Gajeel falls on top of Juvia after loosing balance from the window they were looking through. Levy sees them and Juvia says she’s not a love rival because she only thinks of Gray-sama. Touka is known as the white mage who stole the water dragon god’s power. Chapter 25: Team Natsu goes into “Fairy Nail”, a guild where alternate versions of themselves are celebrities. Gray (Glen) is a pole dancer and Juvia (Juvina) is a topless dancer. Real Gray scolds Natsu for imagining Juvia topless.

He then says “romantic love huh…”, with a soft smile and blushes, thinking of Juvia calling his name. Confirming that once again, Gray loves Juvia.

Chapter 26: Gray goes on a date with Juvina (who is Juvia’s counter part) from Fairy Nail, and she teases him about his love for Juvia, that includes saying Gray didn’t deny he loves her. Juvina told Gray that her and Glen aren’t a couple in order to get information out of him by giving him Juvia’s perspective, but in reality Glen and Juvina are together which Gray finds out later. Gray said Juvina and Juvia might look alike but they are different and that Juvia has a scar because of him. Juvia is special to Gray but he thinks he is not good enough for her right now. So he will become a man who can protect her, and then go get her no matter what. After the date, Gray is thinking about Juvia on the train. Juvia then appears! Gray accidentally calls her Juvia-sama. But is it the real Juvia? Gray blushes for Juvia (and Juvina) constantly throughout the chapter. Chapter 27: Juvia hangs out with Team Natsu, but they can’t tell her about their quest due to the contract. Juvia asks if Gray will really come home and he says of course he will eventually.

Controlled Bixlow then pops out of no where and says they are being lovey dovey as usual, and he’s jealous. Gray tells Juvia to hide while Gray takes on the raijinshuu. Chapter 32: Juvia is hiding, while Gray fights the raijinshuu. She comically declares Evergreen a love rival but cannot move from her spot because she cannot use magic. Juvia cheers Gray on from afar. Chapter 41: Gray and Juvia meet up with Lucy and Cana. Juvia asks Gray if he would like to take advantage of the confusion to touch her breasts. He freaks out. Chapter 49: Juvia praises Gray after he defeats Mirajane and Elfman. She holds onto his arm when the ground starts shaking from Aldron’s orb being destroyed.

Chapter 50: Juvia still holding onto Gray. She also wished she had her magic to protect Gray’s ears from the loud noise. She gets her magic back and a water bubble appears around Gray’s head. Chapter 55: Start of Gray and Juvia vs. Metro (God Seed of Aldoron) Chapter 57: “Power To Live”. Gray and Juvia continue to battle Metro, they reach for reach other but Juvia gets absorbed by the tree. Metro asks Gray what this girl (Juvia) means to him and if she is power. Gray states that’s right, she is his power to live. Juvia starts blushing, boiling, and steaming due to what Gray says and even repeats it to herself. *Chapter cover matches with Chapter 58′s cover. See note below.* Chapter 58: “Ice and Water”. Juvia is still boiling, but Gray comes up with an idea to use Juvia’s body as ice to set her free. He comes up with a series of attacks called Juvia Freeze, Juvia Geyser, and Juvia hammer. Juvia herself is enjoying this. Once she is set free, her and Gray do a unison raid called Ice Wave to defeat Metro. Gray asks Juvia if her body is okay, and she replies saying she never imagined she would be frozen in a block of ice. She continues to be her silly self while pointing to her lips saying it hurts there and to have Gray give her CPR. That shows Gray she is fine after all, and Juvia continues to tease him asking him what she was to him again (aka his power to live), and keeps pushing for him to say it. Gray blushes and hides his eyes until he finally looks at her and tells her to cut it out because their friends are in trouble. Juvia becomes disappointed, but then Gray puts his hand on her head and yanks her towards him, hugging her. Gray tells Juvia he’s glad she’s safe, and they both blush. They then go off to find the others. Juvia follows after Gray, picking up his clothes. Meanwhile, their guild mates realize Metro has been defeated by the pair. Elfman states Gray and Juvia together aren’t too shabby, while Wakaba and Macao state that is the power of love. *Chapter cover matches with Chapter 57′s cover. See note below.* NOTE ABOUT THE CHAPTER COVERS: The chapter covers of Fairy Tail 100 Years Quest 57 and 58 match on purpose. Chapter 57, titled “Power To Live” (referencing Gruvia; as Gray states she is his power to live in the chapter), depicts beautiful Juvia in a dress with petals around her. Chapter 58, titled “Ice and Water” (also referencing Gruvia), shows bashful Gray holding his hand out, implying he is asking Juvia to dance, as other couples are dancing in the background. The same petals from chapter 57’s cover are also present. The matching covers are also confirmed by Atsuo Ueda, the artist helping Hiro Mashima with the 100 Years Quest sequel. He states on twitter while posting both covers: “By the way, I made the perspective of this cover opposite from the other one.” (Opposite perspectives, as in they are facing each other) Chapter 63: Juvia calls Gray’s name, Gray instantly whips around asking if she called him (while naked). Juvia hugs him and says she’s glad he’s safe, Gray hugs her back while blushing/smiling saying “you too”, being super affectionate so everyone in the guild is shocked.

Chapter 64: Brandish shrinks the girls. Tiny Juvia is looking for her to change them back to normal size but finds “giant” Gray instead. She jumps at him while losing her towel, so Gray “eats” her to hide her from Elfman.

Chapter 65: Team Natsu gets sent to Edolas after 9 years. Edo Gruvia is married and has a son named Greige (who looks like the son Mashima-sensei drew for Gray and Juvia in the past). Chapter 66: Greige asks Gray why he doesn’t wear clothes, Wendy wonders if Gray and Juvia had a child if the child would be like him, and Gray is blushing covering his mouth saying Greige is too cute. Greige blushes shyly at Nasha, Natsu scolds him, and Gray yells at Natsu grabbing his shirt to not be loud so he won’t scare Greige. Chapter 67: Natsu makes a comment about taking Nasha back to earthland, and Gray says they will only take Greige back. Chapter 71: Natsu and Gray encounter Hakune in Elentir who makes dolls out of the women sleeping in the depths of men’s/their hearts. Juvia appears for Gray, and he wonders what she’s doing there while blushing. Juvia is hugging on him and saying it’s because Juvia is Gray-sama’s. Hakune says the women in their hearts soak up their lives. Eventually Natsu and Gray destroy the dolls because they aren’t real. With a smile, Gray mentions the real Juvia is crazier anyway. Chapter 74: Gray thinks of Juvia, saying her name out loud to himself. Wendy, who has transformed into a monster cat, appears in front of him. She teases Gray about being concerned for Juvia. Chapter 81.5 (Volume 9 omake): This bonus chapter takes place right before Gray/Team Natsu gets transported to Edolas/Elentir arc. Juvia and Gray are alone in a room sitting on a bed together as Juvia wraps her water body around him to soak up his “nutrients” since she can’t see him during the 100 Years Quest. Gray apologizes for putting her in danger during the fight with Aldoron, while Juvia responds with teasing him about him saying she’s his power to live. Gray is blushing furiously. Juvia starts thinking to herself how Gray might not come back alive, but knowing she can’t think that way, she comments to herself she fell in love with Gray-sama who fights. But also notes Gray-sama who lounges around all day is fine too, showing her delusion of him asking her for food on the couch while drinking, and she holds the clothes. Juvia says if that happens she will be the provider, and Gray is confused at what she is saying. With a determined look and blush, Gray then says “I promise. I will definitely come back. When I come back….” Then he disappears before he can finish his sentence, and Juvia is left crying comically due to the horrible timing. Chapter 84: Gray vs Hakune rematch, Hakune makes Gray fantasize the blissful life he wants/envisions, which includes being with Juvia and their son, Greige. In this dream, Greige pulls Gray by the hand and says everyone is here, meaning Ur, Ultear, and his dad Silver. They are all together to celebrate Gray’s birthday. Gray keeps saying it’s a dream. He says he wants to stay there forever, but can’t because it’s wrong. It’s a dream. He breaks out of the fantasy and says he doesn’t want to be happy, he wants to make JUVIA happy. Chapter 90: Gray and Juvia reunite and happy to see each other. Watching them, Warren and Max note that Gray’s personality has changed (since he’s more open with Juvia now). Chapter 91: Team Natsu parts from the guild once again to continue on the 100 Years Quest. Juvia clings to Gray’s arm crying not to go, he says he has an important job to do.

Chapter 113: Gray fights Sai of the Gold Owl Alchemist guild, the alchemy “LOVE BOND” was used, resulting in Gray taking on the appearance of the woman he’s in love with. Likewise, Juvia at the guild took on the appearance of Gray, shocking everyone. Juvia comically thinks it’s from loving Gray too much. However, it’s revealed Sai did this thinking he could crush a woman, believing women are weak. Gray tells him not to look down on Juvia. Sai is shocked that Juvia is a mage, and Gray asked if he considered the possibility the woman he swapped with would be stronger than him. Of course Sai did not consider that, so Gray called him an idiot. Gray then states he will use Juvia’s powers, and show Sai how strong she really is. Chapter 114: Gray (in Juvia’s body) uses her magic to beat up Sai, he also pictures different versions of Juvia calling his name (mostly fangirl/comical, but one of her loving smile) trying to remember how she uses magic. Sai changes Gray back to the person Gray thinks is weakest, which is himself. Gray then wins the battle using cold slicer. Volume 13 omake: Takes place while Juvia is in Gray’s form, she is having a dream of their naked embrace. She also wonders if she turned into Gray due to her immense love for him and says she will never let go. Chapter 123: Team Natsu returns to the guild, Juvia hugs Gray and mentions her form transformed into his, he remembers the love bond and blushes, trying to explain himself but mumbles. Chapter 124: Gray and Rogue challenge each other on who can step on their opponent’s shadow first, to which Juvia reminds Gray that Rogue is a shadow user. Chapter 125: Gray is looking for books on “how to treat a woman”, “rain woman”, and “being hit on”. Chapter 126: Sai spots Gray on the street, commenting he used love bond on him with a more gloomy blue haired girl (meaning Juvia), yet is giving Wendy a cute/dopey face and gets outraged saying Gray goes through girls like underwear. Gray was actually commenting how cute Frosch is, hence the look. Chapter 138: Team Natsu gets shown an illusion of the guild possessed. “Juvia” hugs Gray saying she is real. Chapter 139: Fake Juvia continues to tell Gray she is real, but Gray doesn’t think so. But he gropes her chest and realizes she has a real body.

Chapter 206: Gray encounters Anchor of the Calamity Bloods, Juvia saves him. Chapter 207: Gray is about to slip up and call him and Juvia a couple, but caught himself and changes his comment to duo. Chapter 208: Gray’s inner thoughts revealed. How it was normal for Juvia to be by his side, how he took that for granted and due to that he never noticed his feelings. Crying, Gray finally reveals he loves Juvia (”That I love her this much…”) as she is torn apart by Anchor. Chapter 209: Gray cries holding Juvia thinking he couldn’t protect her, Juvia reforms and apologizes to Gray for tricking him, they get engulfed in poisonous water, Gray says he swears he will protect Juvia this time and kisses her. Chapter 211: Beautiful chapter cover of Gray and Juvia hugging with the text “feel the love in silence”. Juvia wakes up, splits Anchor’s water (saving her and Gray), begging and crying for Gray to wake up, kisses him, he wakes up and the two defeat Anchor. Juvia asks if it was the power of love and he admits it.
