Fairy Tail Chapter 305 Discussion

Whoah, hold a sec. Just holding him off would be enough to mean she surpasses him and Gildarts?



Also, I must explain the image I have in my head. One scenario that I have in my head is her sword being cursed and he who wields it suffers from some kind of plague(hence Kagura's blodd cough we saw back then). The reason she took up that sword was to slay Jellal, and therefore she wont draw until she meets him (possibly meaning that she might seal her death if she were to draw). So basically rather than putting her over Jura and Gildarts I assume that her individual abilities are just equal to Erza and her sword of legendary status is what might put her above Jura when drawn. In short:

-When sheathed she is equal to Erza (and therefore able to hold off Jura without meaning that she stands above him)

-But when drawn she might truly be top5.

Of course the above are all my opinion and only a theory.

it really wouldn't be exaggerated

Erza defeated 100 monsters alone (and the strongest alone was appearently at saint level), Natsu defeated the twin dragon slayers without using his full power, Laxus single handedly owned Raven Tail with barely any effort

THOSE were exaggerations

compared to that, Laxus defeating Jura seems reasonble



and it wouldn't diminish the title of wizard saint because Laxus extremely strong, probably among the top 10 we've seen so far



There's a difference between top 10 and top 5. I think that the list I gave before is correct, if you have any objections feel free to say so. As for the examples you gave: we have seen many times many different mages (among them Natsu/Gray and Sting/Rogue who are not of FT) taking on entire small dark guilds. Which means that Laxus vs Raven wasn't THAT much, especially since Raven Tail weren't given a chance to retaliate. The momment they were hit they were arrested. Maybe they are fodder, maybe they just weren't given a chance. But none of them is SW level to compare it to this. We have seen what the 10 are capable of and I insist that it is far more an exageration.

As for Erza, allow me to quote myself:

^Firsth things first, (and most importantly) you gotta realise that not everything that is mentioned by each and every character is the absolute truth and that these things should be considered based on the character that tells these things.



Meaning that the pumpkin was merely showing off the quality of the matches. There is no way in hell that that monster was equal to an SW. What did you expect the presentator to say for his own show? "Just some monsters in here, like a walk in the park, no biggie". Besides the actual sentence was that "not even an SW is guaranted to slay it". Simply impliying a high risk. That's all.

I would like the idea of Laxus getting moar attention but I still think he's a bad choice for Jura. Anyway, I like your idea about the cursed sword, I have explained it to myself in a similar way also.



Well, all what's left is to see it.

This whole cursed sword talk just makes me think of the slasher from Durarara! haha.



I've had high hopes for Kagura for a while, but all this talk has amplified it ten-fold. Please don't troll us again Mashima.



Now wait a sec. Don't use "troll". It's just me saying stuff

( mostly inspired by the thousand depictions of "the cursed Kusanagi sword").

Kagura's disease and the sword might as well be irrelevant. Let's not get hyped again only to feel trolled later XD.

^ I like that theory, and now I understand a little better what you were saying. Also, not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but what if Erza fights Jura? With her earth empress armor, or whatever she would call it, she could quite possibly beat Jura.
