I didn't find Laxus's lightning negating Tempesta's Curses weird or anything. His lightning is made out of Magic. It's not supposed to act like real life lightning just like how Sting's Laser doesn't work like a real life Laser does (moving at the speed of light and all that).

Curse and Magic are both subcategories of The One Magic iirc, so I believe it's a case of "the stronger force wins". Laxus's lightning was stronger than Tempesta's tornadoes, and that's why he was able to negate them. In the manga, Gray was able to freeze the tornadoes in an instant. Now I'm not a scientist, but I doubt such a thing is possible in real life.

Natsu, Juvia and Lucy were sent flying while they were inside the tornadoes. Laxus and Gajeel were not inside of them.

About Laxus's Jacket not flying away, that's just Anime logic. How is it possible that Trunks's clothes weren't burnt away by Frieza's Supernova which can destroy planets easily? Anime logic =/= Real life logic. It doesn't happen only in FT.

Well, Hiro did say DBZ was one of the Anime shows that influenced him the most, after all..
