While Water Magic’s status as an exceptionally strong magic had already been cemented by users such as Juvia and Aquarius, the series’ 100 Years Quest sequel has introduced an even stronger user of this magic, consequently adding on to the list of powerful water spells in the series. These spells prove that even the four basic elements can turn into a cataclysmic power in the right hands.

7 Water Pillar

Aquarius' Primary Water Spell

Aquarius Water Pillar

First Appearance

Episode 182, "The Burning Earth"

Users

Aquarius

As the Water Bearer Spirit, Aquarius is an all-powerful celestial being with complete mastery over the element of water. With her magical urn, she can channel water into all sorts of devastating attacks, and Water Pillar is one such spell in her arsenal.

By swinging her urn, Aquarius siphons a tsunami of water and strikes her target from below by erecting a pillar of water. As the strongest Zodiac spirit, it comes as no surprise that Aquarius’s water magic spells are some of the most potent ones in the series. However, her powers still pale in comparison to other water mages.

6 Water Lock

Suffocating Enemies In A Sphere Of Water

Water Lock Juvia's Spell

First Appearance

Episode 21 "Phantom Lord"

Users

Juvia Lockser

Water Lock was one of the very first water spells to be revealed in the series, and while it was easily countered by Gray’s Ice Magic, it still showcased immense potential as an offensive spell. With her Water Make magic, Juvia can form a sphere of water, trapping her victims inside and suffocating them.

Escaping Water Lock is no simple feat, as most mages would normally succumb to the sphere and drown. Ice Magic is one of the few magics in the series that can counter this spell by freezing the entire sphere, a technique that Gray employed to escape.

5 Water-Make: Blood

Blood Transfusion Through Water

Water-Make: Blood Fairy Tail

Users

Juvia Lockser

Since Juvia is one of the two actual water mages in Fairy Tail, most of the series’ strongest water spells can be found in her arsenal. Water-Make: Blood is one such spell that holds immense value for Juvia, even saving the life of Gray on one occasion.

The Fairy Tail universe has unveiled a variety of intimidating demons. These are the strongest of the bunch.

Water-Make: Blood allows Juvia to control the water inside her blood, in turn allowing her to transfuse her blood into another person’s body. While this spell can save her allies from blood loss, using this spell comes at the price of risking her own life.

4 Unison Raid: Maguilty Water

Juvia And Meredy's Fusion Spell

Maguilty Water Juvia and Meredy

First Appearance

Episode 301 "Fighting Spirit"

Users

Juvia Lockser, Meredy

Unison Raid is a type of fusion magic that allows two mages with mutual trust to merge their magic power for a devastating spell. Maguilty Water is a similar power that stems from Juvia’s Water Magic and Meredy’s Maguilty Sense power, resulting in a flurry of sensory and water blades that impale their opponents.

Since Unison Raid combines the magic power of both mages, the strength behind Maguilty Water’s blades is rather intense. This is evident from the fact that Maguilty Water was able to defeat Zancrow and Keyes, two dark mages who possess Fire God Slayer Magic and Curses, respectively.

3 Aqua Storm

The Power of Aquarius And Scorpio's Star Dress

Celestial Spirit Mages possess the ability to acquire their spirits’ magic powers by placing the gate key in question on their chest, which then grants the user their spirit’s Star Dress. Wielded by Lucy Heartfilia, Aqua Storm is a water spell that stems from a mix of Aquarius and Scorpio’s Star Dresses, meaning the spell comprises both Water and Sand Magic.

With Aqua Storm, Lucy can create a potent swirl of water and sand, which then lashes her enemies with a devastating blow. The spell was strong enough to rip through a wood golem, showcasing the intensity and force behind this seemingly simple spell.

2 Aqua Aera

A Potent Spell That Allows Interdimensional Travel

Aqua Aera Fairy Tail

First Appearance

Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest, Chapter 65 "Elentear"

Mages vary in power in Fairy Tail, and these S-Class mages stand out for being the strongest of them all.

Faris was able to travel from her home world of Elentear to Earthland through Aqua Aera’s power. Aqua Aera has no direct offensive capabilities, yet it still stands as one of the strongest spells in Fairy Tail, largely due to its ability to grant users interdimensional travel. The spell can still be used for offensive purposes, such as trapping opponents in another world indefinitely.

1 Water Dragon’s Roar

The Strongest Water Spell In Fairy Tail

Mercphobia's Water Dragon's Roar

First Appearance

Fairy Tail 100 Years Quest, Episode 6 "Lineage of Fire"

Users

Mercphobia

Fairy Tail 100 Years Quest has introduced all manner of powerful characters, and out of these new additions, Mercphobia is arguably the strongest one. Known as the Water Dragon God, Mercphobia wields the rare Water Dragon Slayer Magic, meaning his water spells are naturally some of the strongest in Fairy Tail.

His strongest water spell is Water Dragon’s Roar, which allows him to gather a large volume of water that he can thrust at his opponents. Mercphobia’s Dragon Roar was able to overpower Natsu’s Fire Dragon Roar, a feat that clearly indicates his superior power and the potency of Water Dragon Slayer Magic.
