Fairy Tail 206 Discussion / 207 Prediction

[Zatono]

^Agreed. Gildartz could of solo'd every arc in Fairy Tail so far, including fighting all the Oracion Seis.

S classes of Fairy Tail are just so high up through. Elfman beat an S-class mage who's name escape me in Phantom Guild, and Gray also beat Juvia. Elfman's part also beat Elfman himself, so she's in the S-class power for sure. Fried was also S-class for being stronger than her. There already seem to be much mages who is on S-class 'average power' in Fairy Tail. They just haven't be named S-class yet. My point is that anyone, except Levi, can pass the test and still be on pair with S-class from other guild.

You don't know this, period. From what we have seen thus far, this is correct. But we have not seen the top tier of Tartaros, nor Raventail, nor the 3rd member of the Ballam Alliance. Pure conjecture on your part. Also, none of the above you listed were on Jura's level, for being an S-class mage.

Jura's one of ten top mage of the continent. I know the it's from what the counsel 'regonized'. But at least it should be able to set some line for the stronger of the S-class. he's not your average S-class for sure.

We can only look at other mage for now. And the only non-fairytail S-class that we saw are from Phantom guild. So my statement is at least true from what we've seen so far.

that's why I said, "thus far."

I'm not picking on you, it's just that since last week's chapter it seems far too many posters are coming up with assumptions(which they are labeling as truth) for far too many things. Like last week's thread dissolved into posters stating the strength/purpose of the test et al. When all we know thus far has clearly been illustrated for us. The purpose of the test was, once again, clearly laid out by Makarov. Those who are shocked that Natsu didn't have to beat Gildartz to advance simply didn't read the chapter. It is obviously stated in the text.

The big revelation for this chapter is the difference between our run of the mill S-class Fairy Tail mages in Erza/Mira and an SS-class mage in Gildartz. That and Gildartz actually providing a learning lesson for Natsu. Since, as he clearly stated, Natsu possesses the required strength to become an S-class mage, but he lacked the restraint.

Now, whether or not the others possess the strength is a question. Levy clearly doesn't, but as we have seen, other qualities such as "heart" can allow her to move on.

If 3 three chapters coming out next week does that mean that there is going to be a break? I can see a good cliffhanger next week.

[Lee-tyme7]

when will the FT special about Natsu & Happy's home come out? I thought it was suppose to be out the Oct 20 or is it Nov 20?

[LoS]

I can see a good cliffhanger next week.

I'm sure there will be a juicy one, but even if it is anti climatic I will be satisfied if it is the resolution of the first phase of the test. That way the very next chapter is an explanation of the second phase of the test.

[-Ken-]

I'll be surprised if Levy does pass the first round. The only way I saw her passing is that she got the quiet path, which is a bit lame. But 'luck' is a part of S requirement, so it's entirely possible.

On the next week, it'll be one awesome weekend right after the midterm XD. I can't wait already.

[xErzaScarlet]

Mest is out soon , so i cant wait to see him in action .
As for Gildartz , he is super cool . He didnt even move and he has made Natsu cry in front of him . Thats really strong . I wonder if Gildartz appear Orachion Seis chapter , there would be much more of a uproar .

[tobeulp]

I love this great chapter Gildartz really make Natsu piss his pants off... Even Erza,Laxus and Mira combine will be nomatch against Gildartz... I think this arc is for setting up an epic arc next

It is obviously stated in the text.

In their defense, Makarov did say they would need to defeat an S-Class mage to proceed. It was speculated that they'd be holding back, and they clearly were fighting on the defensive. But given the difference in power between Gildartz, and everyone else, it's not all that surprising that the conditions for defeat might be a bit different. In his case apparently just forcing him back was considered enough to pass.

Now, whether or not the others possess the strength is a question. Levy clearly doesn't, but as we have seen, other qualities such as "heart" can allow her to move on.

Personally I suspect that Levi's strength is underrated. We've never actually seen her fight. Her power doesn't lend itself to big attacks, but it does lend itself to being versatile. Her team being surprised and wiped out by Gajeel isn't exactly a big mark against her power, and we later see Elfman berating Jet and Droy for getting knocked out and leaving Levi to finish the mission alone. Other than that, and Fried's barriers we don't have too much to indicate how good she actually is.

[iamtenninja]

I don't remember which page was Levi's guild card but I do remember that she has the ability to write words out and then attack with them. (Writing hot would make the word 'hot' physically appear and also take on the attributes I believe)

Thus I can only hope Levi attacks her opponents with killer vocabulary.

[maravish]

How come Gildartz isnt one of the top ten mages?
