You mean like Erza putting on her flame-pattern pants and bandages and pumps all her power into offense, while leaving nothing for defense?

Considering that 2nd release stage (or whatever she did when she determined that Mira has to be wiped out) that does make sense.

Though I'm disappointed in the way Lisanna and Elfman just learned their Take-Over magic in the guild.
 * 1) Who taught them? We never heard of anyone else with the magic.
 * 2) Don't they need to actually take-over something before they can turn into it? Since it was never explained how animal soul works, I can let that slide, but Elfman very clearly was stated to take over beasts he defeated, or at least whom he got into skin-to-skin contact with (like Rustyrose's arm).
 * 3) Since when are bears and giraffes beasts?
