But the thing is though, that he didn't really fuck up anything because these stats were from Jason's POV. Not from Hiro's as an author.

Hiro did say he doesn't plan every detail in his arcs beforehand, yes. So? Are you saying Hiro put Sting above Natsu at first? I seriously doubt it. He said he planned Jura and Laxus to fight on the first day of the GMG and have them tie. Which means he already had a pretty good idea of where everyone should be at Power-wise.

Again, there's no way in hell Rogue is above Kagura and that Beth is faster than Gray. Therefore, these stats are simply BS.
