Lol who even said that a guild master needs to be in the guild 24/7? Is Sting always in his guild? No. Also why tf would Erza need to protect the guild in the first place if no ones there? Lmao.

Imo Erza would be a better choice than Laxus even if he was there. Erza was loyal to the guild ever since she was a child while Laxus was barely ever there. He was never present when the guild needed him and caused more problems for them then he solved. Erza was always protecting the guild and acted like a mother to everyone. Yes, Laxus has changed, but that change happened way too early for him to be rewarded with being a guildmaster. I think he should be the guildmaster at the end of the series, but not now.
