Wow, long post again. I'll just go through the points I want to reply to in sequence.

The thing with Zeref's power you clearly got wrong. This was about the texture of the magic if you will, not the powerlevel. And what's more important: What Jellal felt wasn't F-Lucy's magic, but the remnants of the magic of the Eclipse Gate that stuck to her. But since Jellal could only feel F-Rogue for a short time, I'm pretty sure those magic remnants quickly disappeared.

We very clearly heard Lucy thinking that the Urano Metria during the GMG was weaker than the one that defeated Angel. Size isn't everything. Either the anti-angel Urano was compressed better, the different viewing angles were deceiving or (most likely) the anime team decided to re-design it for some reason (like feeling lazy, since the first one looked a lot more detailed and overall better in my opinion).

That there was only one magic circle under both Lucy and Yukino, to me, hints at them doing something like Unison Raid where their magic power was combined. And with neither of them saying anything, we can only guess who provided how much magic power and will never know for sure. With 2nd Origin Lucy probably provided more, but I'm very sure she did not provide all of it, since both Celestial Mages were exhausted afterwards.

There is no indication at all that Celestial Spirit Magic can't be learned like any other magic. Just look at Everloo... do you really think he had a special connection to the stars? Or Angel and Karen, who abused their spirits? Seeing as how the Spirits and even the Spirit King consider Lucy an exceptionally precious Spirit Mage because of the way she fight with and cares for her Spirits, I'd say that such a deep connection is the exception rather than the rule among Celestial Spirit Mages.

That Shinagawa messed the summoning up is no argument. He wasn't even a mage at that point and it was his very first attempt. We have no idea what happened when Lucy made her first try to summon a spirit and since we never saw any of the other FT Mages even attempt it, we also can't tell if they could do it or how many tries they'd need.

That Bora threw her keys out the window just means that he didn't know how to use them, not that the same applies to every other mage as well. That he'd throw golden keys away, instead keeping them to sell later shows what a moron he is. With there only being 12 golden keys in total and seeing as how even a Canis Minor already fetches 20.000 jewel, those keys must have been worth a forture if sold, possilby even more than the entire shipload of potential slaves was.

Hibiki might not have found the spell in the archive yet at that point (it was three years earlier) or he might have held it back to make it a gift for the right occasion (like a marriage proposal for example or something).

Yep, much easier to read and reply to. Thanks for the effort.
