Actually in that sense laxus only has borrowed magic. Lightening dragon slayer is not his magic. Its a foreign object in his body, whicb most likely can be taken out.
By that logic, so is Erza's magic.She takes out armour from another dimension where she stores them.
Laxus can access Lightning Dragon Slaying magic anytime he wants, the same way Erza can access them anytime she wants.
Erza cannot access Gray's and Natsu's powers before enchanting them beforehand.
Yes she can. Natsu nor gray were there, nor was wendy. In the end erza did not use fire and ice sword when she was serious.
Natsu's and Gray's powers were enchanted before hand itself, for later use.
So was likely Wendy's. We know for a fact that Wendy is the source of Dragon Seal. If Erza can activate it indiscriminately, at any point she wants, she's basically a Dragon Slayer now.
Yes you are right red lightening mode laxus was matching non serious erza.
Who was buffed anyway.
Everone and their mothers know
erza alverzec feat >>>>>>>>>>> laxus feat alverzec.
Laxus basically defeated rufus of that arc with severe plot nonsense
Meanwhile erza fuked up jura of that arc with same amount of nonsense
Jura hype was bs. Gmg jura was around gmg erza level. Gmg erza without SO defeated WS tier monster plus 99 Other monsters, meaning that erza was around 7 ws tier atleast. SO erza would be 4 or 5 ws tier easily.
You say Jura hype was BS, but takes Eileen hype to be legit? Lul
Unlike Eileen, Jura proved that he was worthy of his hype in the arc by feats (one shotting Ogra, the strongest member of Sabertooth in physical stats; smacking down Laxus; fight with Jellal etc).
Eileen needed extreme diff to beat injured Erza + Wendy.
And you're conveniently forgetting that Erza beat Ajeel with extreme diff, while Laxus was about to end the guy lol. Erza lost to Neinhart. Laxus killed Wahl. Both of these feats put Laxus above Erza.
Erza didn't beat a WS tier monster lol. It was an 'S class' monster. God knows what that means, since even the fodder Sting and Rouge were 'S class', so were Mira and Erza 3 years before the series began.
Yes keep on comparing wrecked erza with a full fresh laxus, because thats the best laxus got.
It's entire team Natsu. And they were enchanted by Wendy. Ended up utterly fodderized. Laxus gave Hades mid diff at the very least.
If we're going that route, Natsu faced Zero the same way lol. He was not doing any worse than when Zero first wrecked him, Gray and Lucy; this was before he got powered by Jellal
Dude, due to this non stop erza downplaying you got here. I saw comment of yours, i think in this chapter or maybe previous chapter spoilers thread, where you talked about WS tier in the beginning of the series. You said.i think markariv gildarts laxus and jellal were all ws or above ws tier from the start of the series. You have already forgotten erza was also ws tier in the start of the series as well.
Another commentor talked about allowing team natsu on this 100 year quest after gildarts fail. I seemz to remember, i think in edolas arc markarov actually asked erza if she wanted to go on this 100 year quest.
As of now, we have some facts that are cannon now
1) erza held back for majority of the fight
2) erza didnt need fire and ice sword when serious
3) erza was shocked that laxus can output power equivalent to her own
4) all laxus feats you know of, happened around erza or she must have heard of um, except wahl one. And she still considered laxus below her.
How is saying Laxus > Erza downplaying her lol? I judge based on feats and give it more value than hype, which is why I always have Erza > Mira as well inspite of them being portrayed as rivals. Laxus always had better feats and portrayal.
Erza may have been WS tier, it's debatable. Jellal did hint at that, so I can see it being true when combined with her feats.
When did Makarov say that? I don't remember.
