I just had to say this. NOBODY is thinking of what Natsu is capable of with Wendy (buffer) and Chelia (healer) working together??
You don't have to play tactical RPGs to see this is an unstoppable formation. It's far scarier than just monster tier Natsu. This is an army-killing machine capable of staying at full health and stamina while pouring out damage for a lonnng time.
It's monster Natsu times 10, 20 or more.
Most people think with battle Shounen logic mostly when reading this series and don't use JRPG logic which is a shame since Hiro is a big video game fan and has said that his favorite is Dragon Quest 3 a RPG. I'm a Final Fantasy fan and played other RPGs like Kingdom Hearts and you can feel the influence in the abilities, world, etc, I would says yeah you kind of have to play some RPGs to see what buffs can really do, I was playing FF 10 and cheer and focus alone make such a big difference.
That being said will they be fighting together? The Sky Sisters will probably fight the monster tamer while Natsu takes on Bluenote and will Natsu even need the buffs and healing, people are hyping Bluenote to Gildarts level while he is very strong opponent it was clear Gildarts was hugely superior. In the fight Gildarts only had a problem when Azuma took control of the Tenrou tree and made quickly work of him after it was back.
