Not that we have been shown or told.

How about when Tempesta attacked 8 Island Restaurant? My memory about that is low

Well, Laxus seemed to have difficulties with finding his way back to the restaurant, but they were in port Hargeon then, which is not the town where he grew up, so it's not necessary for him to know the way there. On the other hand, Freed and Bickslow seemed like they wouldn't find it surprising if he got lost... but that's just speculations.

Read through this thread because I am a Laxus fan, seems there's a range in opinion with his strength, some overrating and underrating going on.

What has been going on with him during Alvarez assault so far he didn't lift a finger yet. Mashima probably hiding him like he did Natsu against Ajeel. Even so Laxus could have gone out and beat up some fodders like the others did (I get it trying to set up Wahl fight so can't have him with Raijinshuu).

I am interested in just how strong he is. He dispatched Sands of Death with ease and his casual nuke gets Ajeel wrecking hype but would love to see what his capabilities actually are, because those 2 feats are to me AoE displays which outdo his previous level. He don't even use DS magic yet. Wish he roared at Ajeel that would be more comparable to older feats than a huge dome of lightning. I put him Spriggan level for now but could drop (or go up) depending on feats.

Also his role this arc, he is a side character so he won't get Natsu/Gray/Erza/Lucy attention but I am thinking there will be a moment where he establishes himself as the successor of the guild by doing something that saves everyone in a very big way, like beating a really powerful Spriggan that is on FT doorstep. I just hope he doesn't play the sacrifice again like on Tenrou or Tartarus.

He is probably going to be one of the new Heavenly Kings with Jura, Jellal and Natsu EoS

I seriously don't understand why in almost every arc Laxus is handicapped.
Fantasia: His feelings are in the way.
Tenrou: He doesn't get the power Fairy Tail does from the Tenrou Tree.
Tartarus: The anti-magic particles ect.
Alavarez: He got cancer.

Not really that bad. At Tenrou he didn't get extra strength, no need to handicap jades, plus he didn't want to be the one to finish hades.

Tartaros, he killed tempest the first time easily, without breaking a sweat. Second time he was handicapped, but killed tempest anyway. He makes no excuses.

That was because back in Tenrou, Laxus did not bear the Fairy Tail crest due to his being ex-communicated from the guild, so he was not considered a member and did not get the power-up from the tree. In Tartaros arc, in the manga, the one who finished Tempester for the second time was Gray. In the anime, it was Laxus.

By the way, did anyone notice changes in the designs of Dimaria Yesta's character?

Did anyone give you a reason to think that we don't know why Laxus didn't get power up? I did say he didn't want to be the one to beat hades. He did say a ft member should be the one. I didn't know I had to explain that too.

Grey killed tempest? Ok I didn't start the manga until the anime went on break.

In the manga Gray defeated Tempesta pretty easy. In the anime, Laxus fought Tempesta. Personally I'd like the way it went in the manga more.

Also the Tenrou tree was down during the fight vs Hades so no one got a power up in that fight. I take Laxus' word for it that he wanted someone from FT to beat Hades. I do see your point about Laxus possibly thinking about the Tenrou power up, but the tree was down (he might not have know this).

I see. Read it and Gray used one attack to win. For me I still think Laxus is stronger, not based on performance. A gut feeling tells me so.

 

[Shiki-No-Ryū]

This question has been bothering me for a while now: Who is Laxus' mother and where is she now or what happened to her?
I don't recall her ever being mentioned in the manga or the anime, so I bet she died somehow. (I wouldn't be surprised if it was Ivan who killed her, that guy is a psycho)
Anyways, I really hope Mashima will clear things up concerning this, it's quite a big deal, imo.

EDIT: Though I guess if Laxus dies, he doesn't need to explain it anymore? That would mentally break me..

We know only one female in a whole Dreyar's family--Yuri's wife--we don't know Makarov and Ivan's wife. In my opinion "female part" of Dreyar family is simply not important, so Mashima wouldn't introduce them. We got Gray's and Lucy's parents, because there're plot-imporant, but we didn't get Dragneels' parents, because their only role is to die...

I also wondered about it. As we know for now, Makarov, Ivan and Laxus are all only child and Yuri's wife died because of Mavis' Ankhseram curse - what if now all the women in Dreyar family are cursed and dying during childbirth like Rita?

And as we're in this topic, I really can't imagine, what Laxus' mother saw in Ivan, seriously...

Yeah, you're probably right. I guess I am just curious. Not having a mother or losing her at a young age has quite an impact on one's choices and stuff and because I'm a Laxus fan I'm really interested in his character development and his past.

That would be cool, but it was Mavis who was cursed, so unless she somehow passed it on the Dreyar family, that's not possible. I guess that would also mean that if Laxus is ever to get married and get children his wife would die. (I don't want that to happen, poor Laxus!)
Anyways, I guess Mashima already told Laxus' story and won't suddenly continue it now (though I'll still hope he will)

If we follow Mashima's trend, most likely we will have Laxus' story again in some next chapters though it's probably a little story.

 

[Crimson Ice]

Really? The nuke hit Laxus? It's not a rock that Wahl launched at Laxus. It was an explosive one. Did the attack blow up on Laxus? Or do you count being able to dodge an attack the same as taking it? Tell me how I haven't addressed what you have said?

Yes August did say it's painful to lose comrades. Go to the next page where Ajeel tells August he is getting old if he thought an attack like that would have killed him. Then go to chapter 452, where Zeref and the spriggan were having a meeting. Ajeel was angry demanding that he be the only one to fight fairy tail. Claiming that if Serena is SUPPOSED to be the strongest in that shitty country so it should be easy for him alone to fight them. I emphasis supposed because Serena was, past tense, the strongest there before.

One thing you got right in correcting me is that August is on another level to the other spriggan. The rest of your stuff make no sense.

I never said it hit him head on, it skimmed him are you just lat out ignoring what I said in my last post. And yes you did, your last post was literally just talking about the nuke.


You realize that was mostly just Ajeel talking tough. LOOK AT HIS FACE, when he first gets saved he looked like he had just shit on himself repeatedly. Then you bring up Ajeel wanting to go alone, you do realize that's Ajeel overwhelming arrogance right? Have you not noticed Ajeel is an extremely cocky character, if he went in by himself he would of got slaughtered regardless of what anyone thinks.

You never said it hit him head on? Yet you say he took the hit from that attack. What was your point behind that? Please explain. Since you keep saying I keep ignoring what you're saying. Because to me you can throw a grenade as hard as you can at someone's face, but unless they are within the explosion, the attack doesn't count, which you said it did if you did not edit your previous comments.

Second to clarify everything else about Ajeel. He was sweating. The attack surprised him. But I can say the same for Laxus when he was standing on the roof because he smashed Wahl through the house, Wahl launched a nuke that also got Laxus surprised which you can see Laxus had a bit of sweat and big eyes looking behind him to see the power of that blast.

You keep saying he got like that because of the magic particles. The magic particles weren't behind him in that explosion that Wahl released. It was right after that you could see Laxus look down, holding his body, with that painful expression. You you yourself should look at Laxus face.

All tough guys that talk a lot and don't mean it, back down when they know for sure that the other is stronger than them. Therefore that huge blast that Laxus launched only proves it was strong. It's not difinitive whether Ajeel would have been killed or badly injured. But if facial expression is all the evidence you have, you'll need more than that.

At the end of the day it might have or might not have. No proof for a difinitive answer. You think it would have killed Ajeel, I do not. That's fine. Many of us watched the anime first, and when we couldn't wait any longer we come to the manga. From here we are current with the manga and have no other way to know more of what will happen. It users like you that push your opinions on others. You say that I'm ignoring what you say, but what you actually mean is that I'm not agreeing with you and that you become agitated when the world doesn't think the same way do you, especially with insufficient evidence to back up your theories.

 

[GodOfDestruction]

So I was reading the new chapter and I noticed something. Wahl almost shoots Laxus 28th an Etherion Canon

What do you guys think?. Would Hiro allow Laxus to go Dragon Force?

No because he'd be too OP, if Hiro wants to go the 7 DS vs Acnologia route then I'd like to see Laxus access Dragon Force then, now that would be great to see.

 

[Brandish μ]

Dragon force is possible. Or at least through DS magic it's possible. I am on the fence as to whether we'll see DF Laxus, maybe like @Stormsfury said it could happen v Acnologia.
