Well you heard it. Mega has confirmed it, so that's good enough for me. In my opinion, just because Faust and Makarov are counterparts doesn't mean that Makarov and Jellal are linked. Like the Grandeeney/Porlyuscia counterpart, it shows that peoples relations can be different. Grandeeney is a dragon from 400 years ago, while Porlyuscia is a human likely no older than Makarov. Also remember Jellal's last name is Fernandes while Makarov's last name is Dreyer, so that alone proves no relation. Also they share no resemblance (though neither do Faust and Mystogan/Jellal but whatever).
