I agree with you about Gildarts, but my assumption with August is that when DiMaria activates Age Seal, August will just copy it. And because August is so far above everyone here, August's Age Seal should freeze DiMaria herself. Either that or when she activates Age Seal it freezes everyone bar August (and maybe Gildarts), leaving her fighting two opponents superior to her.
The problem for her is that August's magic lets him perform copied magic better than the original user though, and it seemingly gives him all of the knowledge about said magic, so he should know the nuances of Age Seal at least as well as DiMaria. And tbh it could be worse for her if he just doesn't copy it because that will leave her to face either August or Gildarts, with the former stomping her and the latter beating her.
Well I always saw August´s copy magic as just that, copy magic. I don´t think it provides him with all the information about a certain kind of magic. Rather, I believe that he has educated himself with regards to numerous magic spells, skills, types, etc. So I do agreee with you, August should know the nuances to the spell all the while having a far more juiced up version of the same spell. But the thought of Dimaria being a time magic utilizer lingers with me. I can´t help but feel she should have a go to plan once someone uses age seal against her. She can´t do the same for someone countering age seal because she doesn´t know how that even is possible. Age seal,on the otherhand is something she is very familiar with and is very skilled in using. This is going with the assumption, however, that mages, especially those of spriggan caliber, have a way of countering their own magic in dire situations due to their splendid mastery over their magic type)similar to how Dragon Slayers counter their own elements or how Gray bends and molds ice from other ice wizards, or even how Gildarts cancels his own spells(however a different mechanic might be needed for theses situations, hahaha)).
Born with tremendous white magic(something along those lines, I think). We never even get to see that tremedous power.

END had the strength to move through Age Seal, anyone with comparable strength should be able to do the same, which possibly includes Gray and those stronger than him.
1. Etherion is a power up. It is not Natsu's power.
It was not strength that let him move through it. Gray isn't END he has never had hype of END so why are you using END feats for Gray? Gray has already been shown to be affected as did everyone in Hargeon. Gray's offense is not on partial END's lvl. Natsu actively held back the entire fight, and second a bloodlusted Natsu beat a base DiMaria with a back stab and she was still conscious. She was beat mostly from the fear of who END really was. Wendy's buff countered Irene's meteor, and DiMaria destroyed it so her offensive skills is higher than Bradman. MCBs couldn't even kill Levy and his strongest attack was swam out of by base Gajeel. If strength could break Age Seal then Hiro wouldn't of went through the trouble of having Ultear or END appear. A bloodlusted Gray and partial END didn't even beat Erza (they attacked at the same time at that) lol, and you think their strength was off the charts or something? It wasn't. Really hax-y magic (like ts, transmutation, mental attacks/manipulation, spatial manipulation, reality manipulation, ect.) can only be countered by hax not brute strength and END is gonna be anti-hax, which is how he's going to kill an immortal, and break a hax af curse. Even Acno (which I've said from the get go) has counters to hax magic (it's not bcs of MP or brute power like most try to make it out to be). This is the same for many other action type fiction as well. END doing it means END can do it you can't scale that to others bcs it has nothing to do with power levels. Hiro has even said this in afterword on hax magic. END has not even one notable mention of MP either.
Gray was effected by Brandish's Command T so he isn't going to resist Age Seal.
Gray fought on par with END, and in terms of offense he was proven END's equal. Speculating that he could possibly do something that END did is not unreasonable.

So was August, yet we know he has more MP than Neinhart
1. Etherion is a power up. It is not Natsu's power.
2. ...
3. Natsu losed to Gajeel while Lucy bring him fire.
4. And Cobra was still in perfect condition and was going to kill Natsu.
5. Natsu didn't beat Franmalt without Lucy, even didn't scratch him. And Natsu did nothing to Mard who was not beaten after their fight. Zeref killed him.
6. You want demon who is dragon calibre? Deliora himself. And why you talking about that? I never said that demon = dragons. I said being slayer is nothing.
August allowed Brandish to cure himself.On the other hand on Gray got effected by Brandish's magic.But she could not use the same magic on END.She even said,"It's power surpasses her's".
That's pretty wrong.Slayer advantages doesn't mean a weak fighter will be able to do the same thing like Gray did.
1. Yes, can. But for using such power as Etherion you must have ability to consuming this power and spill out. DF is not powerup, is just state which consuming more power than base. Like Mira's souls. Stronger soul consuming more power. Natsu did not have enough power to use DF himself and Etherion (and Jellal's flame) get him this ability. He didn't fight with his power, he fought with Etherion power.
- Etherion triggered DF. You can't just eat etherion an power up. Why didn't Jellal or Erza do it. If Natsu ate etherion and he just became powerful in his base form then what you're saying would be true. But he activated DF.
- ...
- Can you please post the page where Lucy attackes Franmalth, thanks. And yeah Natsu didn't scratch him he killed him. also
- Deliora... LOL. Is that a joke?
