After episode 277 (counting from the 2014 restart, around episode 102), there
are no listed episodes in list of Fairy Tail episodes [on
Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Fairy_Tail_episodes). It's
due to have some new OVA as well, but the anime did not give a clear
indication like the last time that it is going to hiatus.

My questions are:

  1. Is it on hiatus right after episode 277 (counting from 2014, episode 102)?
  2. Did Hiro Mashima gave some indication (like last time) that it will be back and when it will be back?

Did Fairy Tail go on hiatus again after episode 277 (or episode 102 after the 2014 restart)?

  1. **Yes, _Fairy Tail_ is on hiatus after episode 101**

  2. **Hiro Mashima didn't gave clear indication that it will be back or when it will be back** , but fans speculated a 1-year long hiatus just like the previous.

One of the reasons that may have caused it is the fact that the anime is close
to the manga and in order to avoid changing the story (see _Fullmetal
Alchemist 2003_ and _Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood_ ), they've chose to let
the manga go ahead in order to have the original source material.
