@Sane Lunatic. Whoops sorry. Every time I see Erza's Flame Pants, I'm filled with rage that screams BS on every fight she's involved. At first when she used it against Ikaruga and Jellal, I didn't mind.

In fact, it was meant to be symbolic that Erza is no longer hiding behind her armor due to the demons of her past, namely Evil Jellal and his madness. I respect that, no really I do.

But when it was repeatedly used over all armors in almost every battle too much, I was very upset. Sure, Erza has the right to wear that but she had forgotten the true value of armor which was worn by warriors for a reason.

I've seen plenty of armor that had numerous capabilities and weapons that are a LOT more powerful than just flame pants and a samurai sword even if they're BS like Nakagami Armor for example.

She just underappreciated their use, used them rarely, and preferred the Flame Pants above all else in battle. I blame Mashima for that.

As for the Guild Master position, Erza is truly qualified to be Makarov's successor if only she get her act together and grow up. She is strong, confident and smart but she wasn't mentally prepared for the responsibilities that Makarov had endured and persevered for 40+ years.

She just needed to accept it and can still eat Strawberry cake while being Master. It never stopped Makarov from doing his hobbies (Sorcerer Weekly photospreads) while on the job.

Laxus will potentially be her successor or even Makarov's too if he had the heart and spirit of his. He's just too grumpy yet cares for the guild in his own way.

Lucy have the potential to be Master since she may (implied) have invested on studying economics and the works of a business back in the Heartfilia Konzern if Jude was too busy to notice her. Why else she knows about the rent money specifically lol?

True, she doesn't have the qualities to become Master but Lucy does have the heart. But then again, she will have serious migraines whenever the guild causes unnecessary destruction while out on Jobs or brawling inside the guildhall lol.

Natsu as Master... Hell no. Pun intended for E.N.D. He will drag the whole guild down with him for all the destructive antics at Guild Master Meetings or slacking off important duties.
