<p>I've watched up to episode 120 of the Fairy Tail anime and want to start to read the manga, while I finish the anime. I'm quite new to reading manga and know how to read them, it's just working out which one is the first one I find difficult.</p>

<p>I would really like to get the first manga (in the story) for a Christmas present but I don't know which one is first.</p>

<p>I started to read what was listed as the first one on a manga website (Labelled as Fairy Tail 465 - 400 Years) to check if it was and ended up reading the spoiler:</p>

<blockquote class="spoiler">
  <p> That Natsu is Zeref's brother!</p>
</blockquote>

<p><strong>Can someone please help me by telling me which manga I need to read first and what is the order of the others?</strong></p>

<p>And</p>

<p>If possible, <strong>Can someone explain the labelling "Fairy Tail 465 - 400 Years"?</strong> so that I know what to look out for in the future, to prevent spoiling it for myself.</p>

What order should the Fairy Tail volumes/chapters be read in? And how to read labelling "Fairy Tail 465 - 400 Years"?
