Fairy Tail Manga Discussion

This might seem harsh but I am never concerned about the out comes of these fights bc they really hold no weight. Honestly, if one of the more powerful members of FT loses, natsu gray or Ezra will beat them. If one of them loses then one of the remaining 3 will step up and win. There's no real consequences to these fights. They just look good. Seems like its been that way for awhile now.
The same could be said for almost any manga but I slightly disagree. If Luffy's gang loses and someone shows up to pick up the slack it leaves slack to be picked up in other areas making certain plot points more interesting. (I.e when people save ussop and nami it impressed upon them to get stronger) Unfortunately there are no definitive limits for the majority of the cast to determine threat level or strength. These current "demons/demonslayers" are as intimidating as flies. The first "godslayer" mages seemed powerful before acnologia showed up because the mages with Hades seemed to require effort to beat. People like guildarts, acnologia and at one point jellal/gerard (or whatever the hell he calls any of his three presences in the manga) have a strong presence but these new enemies seem lame. Hell even the sabertooth guildmaster seemed like a tough guy but then they botched that....these enemies have killed the counsel members. The most lack luster mages presented this far. The only thing these guys have done that was mildly impressive was beat the shell of Atlas flame. Until they say they've tangled with some dragons or something else equally noteworthy to stimulate some coherent growth in the FT gang, it's all kinda moot...
