All right. For the plot summary's introduction, should we phrase it as "One year has passed since the defeat of Zeref and Acnologia, and Natsu Dragneel and his team from the Fairy Tail wizard guild – Lucy Heartfilia, Happy, Gray Fullbuster, Erza Scarlet, Wendy Marvell, and Carla – embark on a "century quest", a guild mission that has never been accomplished in over 100 years since its posting"? Or is it unnecessary as per MOS:PLOT? As usual, I'm opening up a discussion on this page WP:BRD in an effort to avoid edit warring. Any ideas?

To give a better explanation for why using notes to say "As depicted in the original Fairy Tail series" is unneeded, I shall use the MCU itself as an example: unlike Fairy Tail, the MCU is a large series consisting of many smaller, interconnected subseries (the Iron Man series, the Thor series, the Avengers series, etc.). When each article uses a note in its plot summary to provide additional plot details outside what is depicted within the film, it is only ever used to denote films outside the subseries that article's subject is a part of. For example, the plot summary for Thor 3 only uses notes for relevant events in MCU films that are not Thor 1 and Thor 2. With simpler, direct sequels such as 100 Years Quest, using a note to describe to establish events for the series it's a sequel to is unnecessary, because the article already establishes this as a direct sequel to that series, and thus the note adds nothing that doesn't already speak for itself.
