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! :super

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!

Next should be either Gildarts or Irene. With all the haters there's a possibility of Natsu coming next too.
I still don't understand why people consider Natsu not at the top... He still has DF, doesn't he? He vaporized FH Zeref, and FH Zeref > anyone not named Acno.
So.... how could base Irene be stronger than Natsu? :huh:

Yeah, I know I'm starting to sound like a broken record here, but there's absolutely no way that Human Irene is one of the Top 3 Mages in Earthland.

In dragon form, she might be. But in her human form? That's completely ridiculous.

If Irene didn't turn into a dragon in her fight against Wendy and Erza, she would have been the one to eventually lose (via DS-enchanted sword slash).



Irene is probably the most overrated character in the series to be honest. Acnologia would be the one next to follow.

Based off of her embarrassing/mediocre performance, she definitely doesn't deserve the credit that she's getting.

I have to agree with this. Human Irene is very powerful for sure, and deserves top 5, but Laxus should have been higher than her. Any top tier character wielding DS Magic should decimate Irene, considering how her fight turned out against Erza and Wendy.

Being able to beat someone doesn't necessarily mean you're stronger than them. This isn't a tournament, we aren't judging match-ups here, we are judging individual power levels, which means DS advantage really should be irrelevant here. If Wendy wasn't literally Irene's perfect counter she and Erza would have gotten stomped.

This was the conversation
Request: Reveal of FT's mysteries!
In one of Magnolia's cafe:
Lucy: Hello everyone!
Mira: Puru puru pupipiiiin!
L: What?! What are you doing?!
M: Imitating one of your Spirits - Plue!
L: No no no, you don't sound like it at all!
M: Ok then, let's do our best today too!
L: O-ok, let's start with the first question.

Q: I love Brandish-chan! Please, make her happy!
M: Brandish from Spriggan 12 is very popular, isn't she?
L: Irene or DiMaria, who was so cruel for me, are popular too.
M: Whole females' party is popular.
L: As for males' party it's God Serena.
M: What? But he's... you know...
L: I wonder if he's so hopelessly cute.
M: Author is fan of Jacob.
L: Oh yeah, Mira-san, you're fighting with him right now, aren't you? Do your best!
M: Sure! But I don't know why he's fighting with his eyes closed all the time.
L: What?
M: He's capable warrior with no doubts, but thanks to that I can fight with him on par.
L: Mira-san, may it be that you're barely dressed right now?
M: Oh my, shame on me.
L: Let's... go back to the topic. Brandish, I want you to be happy too!
M: You're right. It would be wonderful, if everyone could be happy.
L: Yeah... but lately, with this development... I'm not so sure about it.
M: Let's see next question.

Q: What really happened in chapter 503 in volume 59, when DiMaria was stopping time?
L: Oh, that time... Thanks to that I was saved, but something strange happened with Natsu...
M: And DiMaria was so frightened, it wasn't normal at all.
L: Natsu was moving although the time was stopped?
M: So, let's see what happened step by step:
1. DiMaria stopps the time.
2. Natsu wakes up and knocks out DiMaria in the same time.​
L: Wait the second! How could he move when time was stopped?!
M: Isn't it because of END's power?
L: But Natsu was tied up too.
M: With END's power something like that is not a big deal.
L: And he was suffering from this tumor. (not sure about this line)
M: END's power!
L: Very useful...
M: Let's see what happened next:
3. Natsu notices Lucy (he sees her breasts).​
L: Don't look at them!
M: Now it's too late...
4. Natsu releases Lucy (he sees her breasts again).​
L: You're looking too much!
M: Natsu is a guy after all.
5. Because Lucy's not moving, Natsu thinks, that she's dead.
6. He awakens his END's powers.
7. He strikes at DiMaria again.
8. And rushes to Zeref's place.​
L: So something like that happened.
M: Natsu is a guy after all.
L: Let's change the topic.

Q: When will you perform Star Dress: Capricorn Form?
L: Well, maybe I'll perform it in Fairy Tail Second Film, or maybe not...
M: Hm? So will you or not?
L: I can't tell you yeeeet!
M: Puru puru pupipiiiin
In this volume, the significant mystery about Dragon Slayers was revealed, did you enjoy it? Right after the reveal, some people were saying: "That's great setup!", the others "He came up with this plot recently, it's not fair" and others just "Hmph!". As for "coming up with plot recently" - if you by that mean, that some development wasn't decided even before 1st chapter, then almost every plot may be clasified as "recent made-up". One editor was saying "The story is a living thing". Different factors are included in it and it grows. There's no way, that full story can be decided from the very beginning, so with the story flows I will complement it little by little.

Irene being mother of Dragonslayers was decided before she appeared in manga. On the other hand, her connection with Erza wasn't set at all. That's why she and Acnologia couldn't talk about Dragon Slaying Magic during their confrontation, it because "her connection with Erza wasn't set yet". I should've been more careful with this one.

Speaking about "recent made-up", I remember I wrote it before, but almost everything related to Erza is recent made-up. When I introduced her into the story, her magic, relationships with Jellal and Natsu weren't decided yet. It was like starting the bus before all passengers are on board, but as if she was a proof of "The story is living thing", she showed her growth and became one of the most popular FT characters.

I'll definitely add some "recent made-ups" in the future chapters. Well, not showing it too much is also professionals' job.
Now Seven give me huge bucks for my effort in finding it among so many posts.

Irene would've stomped them in human form. Only reason Wendy and Erza are alive is because PIS, and Irene's sentimentality for Erza. Irene would've curbed otherwise.

Irene is the top dog in the tournament.

If Wendy wasn't literally Irene's perfect counter she and Erza would have gotten stomped.

I don't exactly know how people would define "power level".

Clearly, Erza and Wendy had sufficient power to take down Irene had she not transformed into a dragon. So would that be considered greater power or less power than Irene?

If Erza and Wendy did not have enough power, they wouldn't have been able to severely damage Irene.

Again, feats take precedence over any hype.

So I don't see how Irene has "greater power" when all it took was Erza + Base Wendy power to take her down.

Yeah, I heard PIS many times. It doesn't help that it applies to almost every single villain in this series.

I don't see how Irene would have "stomped them" if she remained in her Human Form.

The only magic she has is enchantment magic. And Wendy was able to cancel out all of her enchantments, rendering her magic useless.

Without PIS, Human Irene would not be able to use any magic and Erza would have defeated her with a DS-enchanted sword slash.

Unless you consider the fact that Irene probably wouldn't have been hit by most of those attacks to begin with had all her enchantments been essentially useless. Wendy literally had the power to completely nullify Irene's main magic, and she had DS magic as well. The matchup was stacked against Irene from the very beginning.

Feats only take precedence when all the factors are taken into account. We don't place Brandish below Cana for getting knocked out in a single blow. We don't place Natsu below Invel for getting instafrozen. We don't place Larcade below Sting for getting beaten by him. The same goes for this feat as well.

END powers is equal to normal current Natsu's power, Is that what you're trying to say?
Oh no, this was not the point I was trying to make. However, to answer your question, technically speaking, be it when Natsu is in his regular personality, or his END persona is dominant, he should not have a difference in terms of the power he possess.

The difference between the two is the form of combat utilized. Magic or Curse. Though, magic and curses are eventually two of the same, as curse is birthed from magic itself, only taking a different route as it is mainfested from negative emotions. The root source of power they run on does not change.

The point I intend to bring across was the reason why Natsu could remain unaffected by the effects of Dimaria's Age Seal, is due to the considerable difference in power between the two. This power being Natsu's physical attributes, namely his strength and speed. As opposed to the erroneous belief that Natsu, while in his END persona, develops an immunity to the effect of time stopping which Age Seal grants.

There is a precedent in the choice of words used by Mashima during Dimaria's interaction in the story, which serves to indicate a target can overcome the effect of Age Seal, if he/she is outright stronger than Dimaria. And the evidence supporting this argument far outweighs the claim of END capable of nullifying Age Seal just because he is END. But of course, one can always agree to disagree.

Personally, I don't see any shame in that. The number of characters in the story who stake a claim to fall in such category is a very select few who are beasts in their own right. The list would likely be counted with only two hands.

So far I am liking this discussion because it shows that people care. And I am glad Mari has her fans who stand by her. However, that aside, I hope others remember not to take this too seriously. Afterall this is not a competition. It is for our entertainment. :verily

So I have reread the chapters about END breaking Dimaria's age seal, and I have noticed something, to explain it I need to explain the chronological order of things with the important panels (from chapters 503 and 504) :

1-Dimaria one shots Brandish, then takes Natsu and Lucy prisoners in a house. Dimaria tries to take out Lucy's eyes and the scene stops there

2-The scene shifts after some time has passed since the "Stab" sound, and Lucy wakes up with blood on her face and notices her chair is broken. She doesn't find Natsu, but instead finds a roasted Dimaria screaming something about the one who broke her Age Seal.



3-Now after Dimaria keeps saying "Its a monster!", Lucy says that END did this, but that is only an assumption that Lucy made, she wasn't awake when that stuff happened so that makes her statement of it being END up to debate.


5-During chapter 504 in the fight between Gray and partial END, a weird flashback was shown about Natsu's transformation,

now things to notice in this flashback is that Natsu was holding Lucy with blood coming from her face ,the chair was broken and Dimaria is nowhere to be seen, which is exactly the same scene that Lucy woke up to. And Natsu wasn't in END form yet.The only conclusion we can come to from this info is:

-Natsu managed to break out of anti magic handcuffs, walked through Age Seal and plugged Dimaria to the wall(which is why she's not in the scene), Natsu sees Lucy not moving and assumes she's dead, which leads him to transform into END.

Based on that conclusion, that shows us the limit of Age Seal stopping at FDKM Natsu (and I'd like to note that FDKM Natsu did surpass the power of a "God" which is Ikusa-tsunagi).

Another thing I'd like to add is about Natsu's and END's hands :
END's claws are focused on in the 3rd panel :


The hand of the Natsu that walked through Age Seal
There is clearly a difference between END's claws and the hands of the one that walked through Age Seal, which leads me more to believe that Natsu did walk through Age Seal.

Another thing too, is that during the times Age Seal was used with Natsu around, he was always in an unconscious state, which leaves him unable to react during the time Age Seal is used, so we have no proof of Age Seal stopping time for Natsu.

The only things I see standing in the way of this being true is the visual effect of the flames in the panel where it shows his hand and an assumption made by Lucy who was unconscious during the event.
I think that the reason for the visual effect is because Natsu was using FDKM because it leaves marks of black around the fire :


So those black marks around the fire could be a FDKM move instead of END.

Feel free to respond to this, I could have missed something
Thank you. You brought up some excellent points.

@Gryffindor @~Charging Lightning~ Well done on the write ups. I had fun reading through them. :hee

Jellal-Mashima as the worst relationship has to be spot-on. At the end of the day, I believe Jellal and Laxus are pretty much equals. Overall, Laxus had the better presentation. But in Jellal's defense, his platform to showcase his abilities never failed to lack stability. The Jellal who fought Acno is when it finally seemed like there were no factors that was holding him back from performing to his fullest capability.

Larcade ending up just below Laxus and Jellal is appropriate as the guy has both the style with his hax curses, and substance with his durability and reflexes. I would place him slightly lower than those aforementioned two due to his lack of feats in travelling speed and endurance.

Keep up the swell job guys! :super

I doubt human Irene would have lost to Wendy and Erza.Don't forget the fact that she was the one who had defeated Sting and Rogue in the North.

In her human form Slaying advantages would be less.

Unless you consider the fact that Irene probably wouldn't have been hit by most of those attacks to begin with had all her enchantments been essentially useless. Wendy literally had the power to completely nullify Irene's main magic, and she had DS magic as well. The matchup was stacked against Irene from the very beginning.

Feats only take precedence when all the factors are taken into account. We don't place Brandish below Cana for getting knocked out in a single blow. We don't place Natsu below Invel for getting instafrozen. We don't place Larcade below Sting for getting beaten by him. The same goes for this feat as well.

The fact that Wendy was able to disenchant Irene's enchantment spells show that their "powers" are relatively the same. In order for Wendy to completely nullify Irene's magic, she would need equal power and skill.

It's not like you give enchantment magic to Nab, and all of a sudden the dude can cancel all of Irene's magic.

Irene also has enchantment magic. So it was fair game that Wendy could disenchant Irene's spells because Irene could always reverse it herself if she was the better enchanter.



As far as we know, DS magic wasn't a problem for Human Irene.

Wendy's enchantments + Erza's slashes were already enough to make Human Irene bleed and complain of pain.

There is no evidence that suggests Irene has the power of Top 3 in Earthland, based off of what we've seen from her.

I have to agree with this. Human Irene is very powerful for sure, and deserves top 5, but Laxus should have been higher than her. Any top tier character wielding DS Magic should decimate Irene, considering how her fight turned out against Erza and Wendy.
Stop.Overhyping.Laxus. He was pitifully knocked out by a casual swipe from Acnologia like an insect. At least Irene was actually praised for her magical prowess when she faced off for him. Laxus is absolutely not stronger than Irene. Her fight against Erza and Wendy was simply PIS and POF. Like Laxus vs Wahl might I add.

Irene didn't defeat them by herself. She had Bloodman and Larcade with her.

It was mostly Bloodman doing all the work in the North actually.

If Irene didn't turn into a dragon in her fight against Wendy and Erza, she would have been the one to eventually lose (via DS-enchanted sword slash).
Wait, you're making it sound as if Wendy + Erza is a weak combo. Erza literally has one of the best offences in the series, and Wendy was boosting that even more.
Wendy + Erza >> Laxus
That's practically a fact by now. So Irene having difficulty in a fight like that WITH PIS involved isn't as pathetic as you make it seem...

Acnologia never praised August who is stronger than Irene in fact August was mere insect for Acnologia.... so where is the logic or any sense???

Besides "Getting fired up" seriously bro, I thought natsu was eliminated. but came here to see laxus gone.His catchphrase should be lord of lightning or something
That was the point bro :cheez @BluePegasus and I came up with the idea of trolling people into thinking Natsu was getting eliminated with that "I'm getting fired up" quote. Laxus did say that quote tbf and judging from your response our trolling seems like it worked :kappa

The logic is that they both actually fought him and one was praised while the other was slapped to the ground. When did August fight Acnologia again ?
