That's true, but if you think about it every season focuses on some characters more than others, and this seems to be a Natsu and Gray season. However, Lucy, Erza and Wendy also got their fair share of fights; Lucy was a key player in defeating Franmalth(the strongest of the 9DG so far imo), then fought numerous unnamed Demons and defeated Jackal. Wendy fought a Demon, went into Dragon Force, destroyed a Face that would end her life, then survived, cut her hair and decided to keep fighting.

I think this arc is a milestone for all their characters. All of them grew, and some of them even lost something (Lucy-Aquarius, Gray-Silver, Juvia-thinks she lost Gray's love for "killing" Silver e.t.c.)

That was a long response, but I just love what the characters have been going through during this arc :P even the minor ones, like Cana, Mira, Elfman, or even Warren.
