Before I end this rate officially, I just want to thank everyone who took part in it.

Thank you to everyone who voted, and even to those who didn't, the discussion in this thread has been incredibly interesting and outright entertaining.

Big thanks to my fellow hosts @BluePegasus, @Emperor Spriggan and @Gryffindor, you guys really upped your game in this rating and it wouldn't have been possible without you. The same goes to @Brandish @DiMaria Yesta @Crescent_jinxgrace @Takuan @~Charging Lightning~ and @Belserion, you all did fantastic posts!

And in general I want to thank the mods for making this run so smoothly, I know for a fact that this thread easily could have turned to chaos without their intervention. In particular I want to thank @Brandish for sticky-ing the thread, this thread wouldn't have been anywhere near as active if it wasn't for you.

I hope everyone enjoyed that the rate, as now....

This poster was made by @Valhalla777, big thanks to him!

THE EARTH LAND MAGES RATE IS OFFICIALLY OVER!​

Jellal performed much better against Acnologia then Laxus did.

Jellal did better against Acnologia than all 7 slayers combined in that fight. Cristina did about as well as Jellal. Wall destroyed Cristina. Laxus beat Wall. Irene did better than Jellal against human Acno. Erza did better than all of them when she dropped Acno with a move Irene made fun of. Ajeel nearly beat Erza. Laxus nearly oneshotted Ajeel.

This is FT plot and PL's. So I can't disagree with you. You can pick any point in that small chain of events to put any of those characters listed above the other :P

Imho Jellaxus are about the same, using Zeref's portrayal. I don't mind if one is above the other, just that they need to be close.

Fun fact
In this entire list only one hype is being used. All the others are actual events

Laxus never nearly one shot ajeel. He didnt even scratch him.

 

[Seven777]

You're telling me that i'm grasping at straw, tell that to yourself first. I just showed you how he was transforming and you're still in denial, Everything is suggesting that Natsu was demonzing. It ain't a theory it is a fact. Actually you're the one who create fire claws theory because you can't accept that Natsu was getting stronger by the time.

When Gray goes to the darkness mode, It means that he is using his DeS at full potential which gives him more resistance against demons and more offense as well. He was Equal to the incomplete END because of his demon slaying privileges nothing more, If Dimaria is a demon slayer she would perform better than Gray because she is simply stronger.

Being angry =/= Bloodlusted, Gray wasn't blood lusted is in your dreams maybe. Wake up and buy glasses.

No, what you showed me was Natsu with claws, something he already had at the start of the fight. Besides, those claws are dark magic accumulating around his hands, his hands dont actually become claws

Spoiler: Natsu with claws

Spoiler: Natsu without claws

Spoiler: Natsu with Claws

Spoiler: Natsu without claws

Spoiler: Natsu with claws in one hand, and without claws in the other

Spoiler: Natsu in Dimaria's flashback without claws

They come and go at his pleasure, they werent even there when he beat Dimaria, so i guess by your logic Dimaria was beaten by a significantly weaker END?

Darkness mode means Gray becomes resistant to demon attacks? Show me a panel that says that, or even implies it. Gray's speed and offense were equal to ENDs, was it due to darkness? Probably not, he didnt kill Juvia so he shouldnt have been darkened. But even if he was, that just means he has a legitimate reason for being as strong as he is, and massacring Dimaria as easily as he did Invel.

END was as bloodlusted as Gray was, it was made soo blatantly obvious, a child couldnt miss it.

 

[Woodenstool]

Eh, no way Gildarts is next. Jelly or Laxus, I'll say Jellal.

Honestly Larcade at 6 is fine by me. He's better than the other 12's, he'd give Jellal or Laxus a tough fight. Hax isn't so amazing to me, because half of it's 'power' is that it makes you believe it's stronger than it is by how these powers are written. Larcade's haxes were broken each time by people in direct contact with him.

I mean it's not like hax is anywhere near as powerful as a nakama punch or the FT crest...

I thought Larcade could put people into a enteral sleep with his magic?

Did this person really say Natsu was in an incomplete END mode? Where is the evidence that he was? How do you know if it wasn't his true form?

 

[Seven777]

First she didn't use Chronos against END and she was backstabbed by him. Second Natsu held back against Gray while he was bloodlusted against DiMaria. Third Sherria needed to be amped by Wendy to survive that attack. Either Hiro forgot about Sherria's regen or Sherria's regen just couldn't keep up with the hits DiMaria was inflicting on her.

First: No, she wasnt. She was clearly burned from the front. She was also able to use Age Seal on him which means she was combat capable.
Second: Natsu didnt hold back against Gray.
Third: Cheria wasnt amped, Wendy chucked a barrier around her, same way she protected Erza from Eileen's fireball. And thats not how Cheria's regen works. Cheria doesnt heal as she goes along, she does it all in one go. Wendy knocked her out cold and then she regenerated back to full health. And then at the end of their fight Cheria was banged up and panting in effort, then suddenly in pristine condition.
If Cheria wasnt at least on Dimaria's tier, she wouldnt have been able to casually swipe aside her most impressive attack.

Yes.
There is none.
He doesnt. Though according to him Natsu was becoming more demon-like throughout the fight, so that means END was incomplete.

I think many people are basing it from the movie where natsu fought dragon animus, with a form which many people are saying was his END form and not his dragon form. Either way it is confusing, I think author would come cleam and explain what that form was.

 

[Ebony Maw]

So using your logic, when Dimaria stopped time, Irene and August were the only ones not affected. If that was the case then Jacob would never have gotten a spell to hide under the radar because he would've been frozen and August kept walking.

Wait wait wait....

You think DiMaria is country level? As in, when she used Age Seal it extended so far that Jacob and August were affected in the East?

Spoiler

(If this isn't what you're saying I'm sorry, but I can't see what else you mean. )

Absolutely none of the 'regular' Spriggans are country level. To be country level you have to match August and Irene's Magic Power, and the other Spriggans are outright stated to be dwarfed in power when it comes to comparing them to August/Irene.

And just in case you decide to argue this, Ultear does not prove with wrong. You might say "But MLG Bradman, she affected the whole planet and that was in the GMG" and you would be right. However that only turned back time by 1 minute and she payed for that with the rest of her life.

You have yet to show any scans proving that August or Irene wasn't affected by Dimaria's magic.

Yeah, no. I don't have to prove a negative, you have to prove DiMaria can freeze them. You also need to prove that Age Seal would even affect where they were.

Even then though, it's sheer common sense that August and Irene would laugh of Age Seal, otherwise DiMaria would be the strongest Spriggan. And we know that's wrong because Brandish outright said that while August is the strongest individual among the 12, Irene is the strongest female.

Throw in the fact she specifically said "Only END is capable of this feat".

That's her opinion though, and DiMaria is arrogant AF about "her time". In that statement she simply said that E.N.D was too powerful for Age Seal. This pretty much confirms that Age Seal has a limit, as we haven't seen E.N.D do anything that would hint to him being resistant to time magic.

Brandish and August are near the same level with August being more powerful obviously. You pretend like he's so much higher than every body else when he's not. Brandish told Lucy that the battle ended the moment she stepped foot on the battle field. Lucy questions and Brandish replied she could level the whole city. This city level ++ character was trapped with magic handcuffs or whatever it's called. END doesn't use magic, and that nigga END broke out of them, bounced a shin bone off of Dimarias forehead and smashed her to the edge of her life. It's obvious that some of the spriggan have intel on Natsu being END.

Dimaria freezing time in certain distance wouldn't make any sense. She was written out of the story for a reason.

 

[BluePegasus]

"Starting off, Kagura shows her brave side yet again by cutting through a mountain with Archenemy where Larcade sat on, which truly shows her will to fight him."

I laughed when it said "mountain".

Bring me a superior write-up or don't complain!

 

[Woodenstool]

Laxus and Wahl were both frozen in their battle. Laxus being a guy with the magic power near August. Read that sentence again, I said "magic power, that doesn't translate to he can beat August.

I had to throw that in there because of some people always try to find anything they can to attack my arguments.

--- Double Post Merged, Aug 31, 2017, Original Post Date: Aug 31, 2017 ---

Bring me a superior write-up or don't complain!

Kagura or whatever her name is got cocky and sliced a cliff. Then got her ass whopped by Larcade who didn't use his full arsenal.

 

[CaptainTorch]

How is Larcade out before Laxus!?
I swear if Jellal is out next...

tbf, Meredy is a country level so Dimaria being at that level is not out of the window

Jellal Fernandes
Score: 11.100
Highest Score: 12 x 8(@~Charging Lightning~, @Brandish, @SirSamuel016, @Crescent_jinxgrace, @Star Frost, @Belserion, @Takuan, @Gryffindor)
Lowest Score: 8.5 x 1(@Berty)
My Score: 12/12

One of the only characters in the series who is an actual mage in the truest sense, his spell casting and affinity for magic is some of the best in the series. It’s definitely more than what some so called “magical prodigies” in the series offered. Anyways, despite being a secondary character, Jellal is someone who the entire audience knows from start to finish, beginning all the way back as a kid in the TOH all the way to the final chapter as an adult. We see the struggle in the TOH, the brainwashing, the path of atonement, and all the other stuff in between, but oddly enough we never get to see how he learned magic or the origin of it, oh well, offpanel is the name of the game anyway. Admittedly, top 5 is a solid ranking,he was actually 4th until the final day, and a fair one in my opinion, he gets a lot of crap, but he’s powerful, I’m sure if you ask Hiro he’d say the same. Definitely stronger than Wendy, that’s for sure.

WORST SPELL
None

BEST FIGHT
Jellal Fernandes vs. Oracion Seis

While the fight was sandwiched in between other stuff, in the end, it turned out to be a really great fight. Jellal shrugging off Cobra and Racer before they turned the tables on him, Jellal remembers how to use magic and begins zipping around in Meteor before Midnight steps in. In retrospect, Nightmare is a really cool and underrated ability, Jellal only managed to break free because he knew of Midnight’s abilities, he then proceeds to drop Grand Chariot, but the way it was set up with those cylindrical seals and with the OS seemingly not hit, it makes it seem like Jellal missed, but that wouldn’t make sense, so moving on, he then drops Sema after it had been teased in the GMG. Pretty dope, especially Sema which had considerable hype and anticipation back then.

Jellal Fernandes vs. Jura Neekis

This fight might’ve not had much plot relevance, but I think it’s a really underrated fight, a fun back and forth in what I feel was the final fight that gave importance to the title of Wizard Saint, with a former and current saint clashing head on. The choreography was nice and there was a throwback to Mystogan with Jellal utilizing his notable spells. Unfortunately the fight was cut short, which was a shame, these guys didn’t do much after this in the arc so it would’ve been cool to at least let this fight reach a conclusion with a victor via battle. Looking back on it, this ended up being Jura’s last fight where he got to shine a bit, well technically it was vs. Laxus, but that was off-paneled quite a bit.

Jellal Fernandes vs. Natsu Dragneel

I know that gif isn't from the actual fight itself, but whatever. Another enjoyable fight, which introduced Dragon Force into the story and it had many emotional moments like Simon, Erza willing to sacrifice himself, her dream, and then Jellal finally saving them, plus it was the only time Jellal used Altairis and it was also the only time this bad boy came into play:

Crime Sorciere vs. August

Also a contender for worst moment, Jellal and co. got off-paneled for the 100th time, in what had the potential to be an amazing fight, between mages. Take away lame copy and nullify, and give us some spells, not punches and maybe something good comes out of this. Instead Magic King went on to fight Gildarts in a fist fight. Much wow. And yes, before you guys who think Wendy>Jellal come at me saying he and his team are fodder, CS don’t have to win, just give a good fight and a loss is acceptable.



BEST MOMENT
Jellal Blocks Acnologia’s Attack

Even if people did expect Jellal to come in for the save, everyone expected Meteor and run, but nope, just put up the shield and roll on. Pleasant surprise.

Jellal’s Rage

Dem eyez tho, Hiro plz, almost as bad as the anime draws him.

WORST MOMENTS
The Zeref Subplot

Really Hiro? You set this up over 250 chapters ago, you reiterate it upon CS’ intro in Alvarez in 474 and 71 chapters later, the series has ended and this subplot was just discarded because reasons. Ok. The biggest F U in Fairy Tail.
Again to the Jellal is fodder supporters, I’m not saying he should win, but you know, at least do something with the subplot.

Live

GTFO with this cringe. Didn’t he resolve to live for Erza back on the beach so why does everybody and their mother continue to spout the same crap.

Even though the OS are not in the pic, I’m referring to them as well. The guild of baddies turned good who have decided to atone for their sins by wiping dark guilds off the map. After Ultear aged in the GMG, we really didn’t get to see much from them in terms of bonding , which is a shame, so we really don’t know how they act with each other, probably a mini-FT.

Brandish and August are near the same level with August being more powerful obviously. You pretend like he's so much higher than every body else when he's not.

Brandish and August near the same level? Tell me that when Brandish does anything near the level of casually murking Jelly and co or handling Gildarts whilst not really trying until half-way through the fight. Or, y'know, almost vaporizing the whole of Fiore.

Brandish told Lucy that the battle ended the moment she stepped foot on the battle field. Lucy questions and Brandish replied she could level the whole city. This city level ++ character was trapped with magic handcuffs or whatever it's called.

Spriggans are overconfident.

In other news, Natsu gives Nakama speeches

END doesn't use magic, and that nigga END broke out of them, bounced a shin bone off of Dimarias forehead and smashed her to the edge of her life. It's obvious that some of the spriggan have intel on Natsu being END.

The most we've seen Age Seal trap is a Spriggan tier. Everyone still in the rating has stomped Spriggans or put up a fight against August. Stomping/one-shotting Spriggans would logically require you to have more MP than them.

Dimaria freezing time in certain distance wouldn't make any sense. She was written out of the story for a reason.

No, it makes far more sense for it to be within a certain area. If Age Seal was a spell that covered the country then August should have arrived in Fiore much faster than Jacob. And yet Jacob got there first. Besides, we've only seen country level spells from the likes of August and Irene (the only exception is Meredy, but that was an asspull to defeat Acno), both who dwarf DiMaria in regards to Magic Power. DiMaria wasn't stated to be an exception to the other Spriggans, her MP should be the same as theirs.

#5

Jellal Fernandes
Score: 11.100
Highest Score: 12 x 8(@~Charging Lightning~, @Brandish, @SirSamuel016, @Crescent_jinxgrace, @Star Frost, @Belserion, @Takuan, @Gryffindor)
Lowest Score: 8.5 x 1(@Berty)
My Score: 12/12

One of the only characters in the series who is an actual mage in the truest sense, his spell casting and affinity for magic is some of the best in the series. It’s definitely more than what some so called “magical prodigies” in the series offered. Anyways, despite being a secondary character, Jellal is someone who the entire audience knows from start to finish, beginning all the way back as a kid in the TOH all the way to the final chapter as an adult. We see the struggle in the TOH, the brainwashing, the path of atonement, and all the other stuff in between, but oddly enough we never get to see how he learned magic or the origin of it, oh well, offpanel is the name of the game anyway. Admittedly, top 5 is a solid ranking,he was actually 4th until the final day, and a fair one in my opinion, he gets a lot of crap, but he’s powerful, I’m sure if you ask Hiro he’d say the same. Defnitely stronger than Wendy, that’s for sure.

BEST FIGHT
Jellal Fernandes vs. Oracion Seis

While the fight was sandwiched in between other stuff, in the end, it turned out to be a really great fight. Jellal shrugging off Cobra and Racer before they turned the tables on him, Jellal remembers how to use magic and begins zipping around in Meteor before Midnight steps in. In retrospect, Nightmare is a really cool and underrated ability, Jellal only managed to break free because he knew of Midnight’s abilities, he then proceeds to drop Grand Chariot, but the way it was set up with those cylindrical seals and with the OS seemingly not hit, it makes it seem like Jellal missed, but that wouldn’t make sense, so moving on, he then drops Sema after it had been teased in the GMG. Pretty dope, especially Sema which had considerable hype and anticipation back then.

Jellal Fernandes vs. Jura Neekis

This fight might’ve not had much plot relevance, but I think it’s a really underrated fight, a fun back and forth in what I feel was the final fight that gave importance to the title of Wizard Saint, with a former and current saint clashing head on. The choreography was nice and there was a throwback to Mystogan with Jellal utilizing his notable spells. Unfortunately the fight was cut short, which was a shame, these guys didn’t do much after this in the arc so it would’ve been cool to at least let this fight reach a conclusion with a victor via battle. Looking back on it, this ended up being Jura’s last fight where he got to shine a bit, well technically it was vs. Laxus, but that was off-paneled quite a bit.

Jellal Fernandes vs. Natsu Dragneel

I know that gif isn't from the actual fight itself, but whatever. Another enjoyable fight, which introduced Dragon Force into the story and it had many emotional moments like Simon, Erza willing to sacrifice himself, her dream, and then Jellal finally saving them, plus it was the only time Jellal used Altairis and it was also the only time this bad boy came into play:

Nice write up! And top 5 is a good result for Jellal! Given it's Natsu, Laxus, Gildarts and Irene above him, I'd say it's about where he should be, although you could argue he's above Laxus. Only thing missing was his relationship with Kagura, remember it was her he kissed and not Erza

No Dimaria stop times for everyone.

Don't even bring up the whole Natsu thing, I already told you that only Natsu was able to do that.

Spoiler: Best Relationship

Thanks.
In all seriousness, I was going to include it just for the laughs but decided against it last minute. Jellal and Kagura have a long history because of Simon but I wouldn't say they have a bond, they've only ever interacted in Hargeon, and even though Kagura dropped her grudge, it doesn't seem like they're friends or anything. The bond just isn't there imo unlike with Erza or his CS buddies, so I excluded it.

 

[Woodenstool]

And to all the people who said NLF with Dimaria's time magic, Larcade's magic affected Irene and Zeref. Case closed, if you can't understand this then you're either trolling or too stubborn to agree.
