I think you guys are being too optimistic with God Serena potentially living. It's quite clear Acnologia is here to hunt "dragons" (Dragon Slayers) and put them out of commission permanently. And his last quote before the chapter practically said "One down, seven more to go". Quite sure there will be no August healing for God Serena having Wind Dragon Slayer Magic doing such. Too much optimism. XD I could be wrong though.

And what's with this need to compare Gildarts to the newest powerful character every time? Like why are you going to compare God Serena's one-shot to a "fight" we haven't even seen, mind you the circumstances are different. If I recall, he toyed with Gildarts and here, he went 100% serious predator mode on God Serena and is not up for fun and games. And I don't see why him being in human/dragon form is drastic of a difference. I want to see Gildarts thrown down just as much but these comparisons are silly coming from a character Hiro Mashima barely pushes into the picture.
