not sure what people are discussing anymore.
all I see is that some people can't cope with the fact that Suzaku is flat out stronger than any Spriggan.
the best argument I heard is "well Erza will have round 2 with him which means his feats he get before are overwritten so he gets stomped by Spriggans".
based on that logic, Natsu is the strongest character since chapter one since we knew he will end up being the strongest at EoS (end of series) and everyone he beat later on and the ones who beat him are fodders (Jellal, Laxus, Hades, Future Rogue etc).
those are some heavy mental gymnastics.
at the end of the day, Hiro said fights are for kids to find it cool.
Hiro can literally have Brandish going country size and finger flick 2 Dragon Gods in the next chapter just because it would
look cool.
however, unless Hiro and Ueda retcon Brandish' power to be DG level, she gets stomped here so far.
the shockwave of Suzaku's one shot destroys the rest of Alvarez lol.
