Final August vs Irene

[Demon Hunter]

Got me there, but you can't deny Erza headbutting Irene and causing her to spit so much blood...is not really a good durability feat.

considering that she was already badly owned and slashed out of her dragon form, I would say its decent.


way better than Cana' cards.

 

[Invel > Zeref]

I am voting for August but I just realized that he suffers from plot induced retardation more than any other character in FT. Why the hell did he go from owning Gildarts to committing suicide? August was a complete idiot because:::
1. Zeref's goal was to extract Fairy Heart from a living Mavis and not to just kill her or everyone else
2. If he wanted to help Zeref defeat his enemies and obtain Fairy Heart, why the hell would he choose committing a suicide spell instead of simply copying the magics of Dimaria, Brandish, and other Spriggans which would literally enable him to solo Fairy Tail in seconds? This dude has a magic which would have allowed him to win the war before it even started but instead chooses to be retarded.
3. Why would he begin to cast a suicide spell if he wasn't emotionally prepared to kill his mother?
4. Why would he stop the suicide spell upon seeing Mavis? Wouldn't Mavis just regenerate after her blood had dissolved because she has the same immortality curse as Zeref?
I'll give August the benefit of the doubt by not putting PIS in the tournament, but I find it interesting how Hiro turned this wise old man into one of the biggest idiots in FT.

Erza hit her in her human form and in an open wound. That's like August not spitting blood if someone punched him in the big whole Brandish made with her dagger lol.

 

[**Silver**]

Can't believe people are voting for Irene Belshitrion. Totally not baiting @Belserion

Then again, both are trash.

EDIT : Also to all those saying August needed to dodge Cana's cards...seriously ? Dude tanked Gildart's strongest move and only had blood trickling down his beard and people are saying he can't take on Cana's attack .

yeah Natsu one-shotted Enchanted Neinhart casually Nienhart---->Erza Wendy, and the same Natsu who one-shotted Neinhart was shitting bricks when Melt spell was unleashed...

and Irene is not even immune to magic only resistant.. and yeah Melt is mostlikely stronger than Erzas sword.. August can even Fly in the air and spam meteors and nukes so Irene is probably tanking all the attacks good joke right bye bye Irene

 

[Orgastthemage]

One page later bruh...

This is all while she having an inner turmoil in herself because she doesn't want to actually kill her daughter.

August also had inner turmoil while fighting Gilfarts and Cana. Still came out better than Irene who took a beating from an already injured Erza.

 

[Belserion]

One thing with this is that she has used Enchantment without her staff before, and that each time she does it the magic doesn't go through the staff and it doesn't come from the staff itself, look at Irene preparing for U1, you can see the magical aura around her. When she was attacking Acno, the magic is coming from her hand.
Enchantment was also used before by others , like Zeref and Wendy, so Enchantment is caster magic.

She uses both her hands and her staff. In this fight her staff would be better used because August wouldn't be able to copy her magic then.

100% Baited

EDIT : Also to all those saying August needed to dodge Cana's cards...seriously ? Dude tanked Gildart's strongest move and only had blood trickling down his beard and people are saying he can't take on Cana's attack .

But he did dodge her cards because Cana's magic was his weakness. I was disappointed with that revelation as well but all the same, holder magic is his weakness and we all know how scared August gets when faced with something beyond his ability to counter That same attack he tanked from Gildarts and what does he do after? Go all suicidal lol The irony of me laughing at August going suicidal

 

[Orgastthemage]

I'm so confused by the community. We already decided on spriggan rankings through BluePegasus's averages.

We came to conclusions of Irene s human form being even weaker than Gildarts.

Are we shafting our own consensus?
FT is a shounen. Natsu has proved that time and time again. The longer the antagonists lasts in the decisive arcs the more powerful and valuable they are.

August was the last spriggan standing.

Least injured amongst the 12.

He gave that whole speech about being the last of the 12 during the chapter entitled"the strongest wizard"!

He didn't care as to Irene' s defeat. It didn't bother him.

He is the child of Zeref and Mavis.

Don't ya think Mashima is telling us something? He rushed the fights so much he just narrated the scaling to us. He even made Irene state her being the strongest FEMALE SPRIGGAN.

Why are we even considering Irene as the new strongest spriggan? It goes against every ideal we had going into the tourney.

It goes against the portrayal in the manga. Of a shounen. Come on guys.

August also had inner turmoil while fighting Gilfarts and Cana. Still came out better than Irene who took a beating from an already injured Erza.

His inner turmoil was from an answer he already knee lol.

Also their durability isn't in the same class.

Base defenseless Irene took this to the head and receive no damage.

Base defenseless August got severely hurt by this.

This attack wasn't even going to scratch her scales.

Spoiler

August durability is not Irene's level. All the attack he was hit by weren't that strong, and the actually strong attack he were hit by were nullified when he copied the magic. August would've got his body cleaved in two by those slashes.

 

[NeoChrome]

she was amped by Wendy's DS magic and some light from Makarov.

mage of Erza' caliber gaining DS magic with a full speed piercing attack would pretty much cut any dragon.

way better than running away from Cana' cards

No. Just no. Being granted DS magic from an injured base Wendy shouldn't affect any dragon. "Mage of Erza's callibur" this literally holds no weight, she couldn't even beat Ajeel in a proper fight ffs, shall I also not the fact she was extremely injured?

Any dragon that can be damaged this way is just a disgrace. But forgot about all this, she didnt even have the capacity to dodge or counter attack, says a lot about her intelligence and reaction speed.

Base defenseless August almost got severely hurt by this.

This attack wasn't even going to scratch her scales.

August wouldn't even get hit by those slashes. Irene is sloppy compared to him

 

[Hermit]

Enchantment was also used before by others , like Zeref and Wendy, so Enchantment is caster magic.

But isn't that like First Generation and Second Generation Dragon Slayer stuff? The Second Generation use Lacrima, the First were trained by Dragons.
So in that case you can say Irene is an Enchantress who uses the staff as a medium to cast her spells. It's still an item to charge the magic through, just like how Gildarts can use Crash with both his natural arm and his prosthetic.
Meaning August shouldn't be able to copy any enchantments cast via the Staff. Normal enchantments yes, but the staff exclusive ones? No.
EDIT: @MLG Bradman I think this should also clear up what you quoted me about.

 

[Jko]

August wouldn't even get hit by those slashes. Irene is sloppy conoared to him

It's not the point of dodging its the point of tanking which he can't (not in the same way Irene could). Irene was sloppy bcs of PIS. She could've curbed the two girls but PIS kicked in to extend the fight. Also August got tagged by Cana, and Gild so he was sloppy in his fight too.

Wasnt that tourney before we found out how lame Augusts magic was? :v

Anyways August being the strongest is self-hype which suprise suprsie Almost every single sprig did

Also Did August ever fight Dragon Irene and curb stomp her?
No,so itd be best to assume he meant hes stronger than her im human form
I really doubt he even knew she was a dragon too
As u can see That statement of his has quite a few flaws

No. Just no. Being granted DS magic from an injured base Wendy shouldn't affect any dragon. "Mage of Erza's callibur" this literally holds no weight, she couldn't even beat Ajeel in a proper fight ffs, shall I also not the fact she was extremely injured?

Irene literally just stood there and took the attack,she didnt move or anything,same as the attack to the head
She took Erzas enchanted DS slash because she was wondering wtf her daughter was doing
She was getting motherly feels or whatever u call it and u could see she was even hesitating against erza afterwards

U think this wouldve happened if this was against August?

August overcame his PiS up until his pointless suicide. He's a superior character to Irene.

 

[Belserion]

August wouldn't even get hit by those slashes. Irene is sloppy compared to him

Not really considering she stood there on purpose. She wasn't actively looking to dodge. This was when she had her "truth about enchantment" epiphany.

Dude. Your statement is flawed too because we don't know if August knew about her dragon form or not you can't just assume that, August hype came from multiple sources not just self-hype, and August' s magic is the most hax and useful in this manga not lame at all.

I was thinking of her inability to dodge Erza' s sky slash that reverted her back into her human form.

 

[Doughboy]

Yeah I'm taking Irene. In order for August to copy magic, the caster must use it first. Irene can go Dragon form and just go on a rampage on August who should be at least evenly matched with her, if not Irene stronger. She doesn't need to use magic to beat him. August has mommy issues so Irene can take a shot at his family or something too

 

[M3J]

We all know Natsu is the strongest charc in FT

I'd love to read your fan fic where that's true

Voted for August but as far as I recall, he sustained the least amount of damage and seems to have little to no weakness in general. Though, he's not a dragon slayer, so Irene wouldn't have weakness against him either. Otherwise this fight is so hard to tell.

Isn't it still the same thing? She still wasn't actively looking to dodge. She was shocked at Erza's actions which is understandable. I mean I was annoyed that she just stood there but the fact remains Erza and Dragon Irene didn't actually have a fight. Erza pulled out her plot armor and Irene just stood there. Irene had more than enough time to swat her away (again) as she was approaching with the sword but the minute she asked "what is my daughter doing?" we all knew where it was going

Not really
Assuming August didnt know abt it is more believable than if he did :/

August and Irene didnt seem close AT ALL :v
Why tf would she even tell him :v
And i doubt Zeref would bother to tell August either,dude seemed to give more shits abt Irene than August

Also like i said b4 August has no basis to claim hes stronger than Dragon Irene which is why i assume he meant human Irene and that he didnt know abt her dragon form with that statement of his :v
