Talk:August

Irene Belselion on par with August
So, in the new chapter (chpt. 483) the strongest female spriggan is confirmed to be Irene Belselion. The thing that I think is stated is that the title of strongest is used by two wizards, August and Irene Belselion. Male and female. However the same person that states this also states that August can be seen as strongest individual.

My point: are we really stating that Irene Belselion is on par with August eventhough August is said to be the strongest individual? - God Serena 19:07, April 25, 2016 (UTC)

Light pillar
I'm curious about Augusts' power in 489. The wiki says that it's a light pillar, but he says Melt right before, so I wonder if it's actually a pillar of fire. Which one is it? Orderorderfruit (talk) 21:42, June 13, 2016 (UTC)


 * In other translations it says 'dissolve into oblivion', so we are not certain either. --Yours truly, The   Dark   Overlord  05:41, June 14, 2016 (UTC)


 * It turns out if was indeed a heat-type magic spell, negated by Natsu. Since we don't really know a name for the spell I've renamed it to Heat Pillar for now.-Yours truly, The   Dark   Overlord  10:37, June 20, 2016 (UTC)

Heat/Fire Magic?
what do you guys think?? Since Natsu said this was a heat based attack, makes sense to put heat/fire magic? thanks :)--73.191.17.103 02:00, June 22, 2016 (UTC)


 * Do you know where we can find the raw version of last chapter? If the raws say Fire we make it Fire, if raws say Heat I think we should leave it this way for now. Yours truly, The   Dark   Overlord  07:16, June 22, 2016 (UTC)

I agree with dark lord, makes sense 11:02, June 22, 2016 (UTC)

raw page 12:39, June 23, 2016 (UTC)

bump, I think he uses fire magic just cause Natsu negated it so add fire magic?-- 16:10, October 26, 2016 (UTC)


 * Do you know what the raws say? I don't speak Japanese. -Yours truly, The   Dark   Overlord  16:15, October 26, 2016 (UTC)

me neither, just asked again for it. Wrath if he sees this can read them too 16:17, October 26, 2016 (UTC)

Lucy: August hit us with something... Natsu: Nope! I managed to get rid of it! Sort of... It being heat-based magic really saved us!

It's a description. It's just Fire Magic on a grand scale. Natsu has always eaten fire. Calling the magic heat-based is just another way to say it's fire. That page should be deleted. 05:41, October 27, 2016 (UTC)

cool, thought it might of been a difference 05:46, October 27, 2016 (UTC)

Bullet Magic or Energy Beams
What you guys think that was what August did in the recent chapter to Mira? I think it's merely Energy Beams which is used the exact and does looked the same way as Dimaria's and that was what was put in her page.Starpower98 (talk) 09:50, July 12, 2016 (UTC)

Well, it looks exactly the same as what Hades did to Makarov, so either both of them are classified as Bullet Magic or both will have to go into the real of simple energy beams. 09:54, July 12, 2016 (UTC)

Didn't Hades did it in a gun-like appearance which that page says that's what the user does?Starpower98 (talk) 10:06, July 12, 2016 (UTC)


 * I agree with Miskos, it's the same as Hades. So, either it is Bullet Magic from both or they both use something else entirely. -Yours truly, The   Dark   Overlord  10:10, July 12, 2016 (UTC)
 * My fault, totally unintentional. Wonder why that be happening.Starpower98 (talk) 10:35, July 12, 2016 (UTC)
 * Nothing to worry about! Now, I've taken a look at Hades' appearance here. I think we can both agree he holds his hand like a gun here. Now compared to August here that's another story, since we can't really see in what position August's hand is at when he fires. -Yours truly, The   Dark   Overlord  10:39, July 12, 2016 (UTC)
 * If you look at the page after that, you can see that it's not that of a gun appearance. It's just how Dimaria did itStarpower98 (talk) 19:05, July 12, 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't like the idea of Hades have his own magic and all others who do pretty much the same only have "Magic Beam". It's all about the hand, isn't it? DisneySeggewys (talk) 19:24, July 12, 2016 (UTC)
 * Well it's not the matter of what you like or don't, it's just how it is. And yeah pretty much about the had which the way Hades held his and of course according to the page, he made his to that of a gun. August a page after he shot Mira shown that he did it the same way Dimaria had.Starpower98 (talk) 22:52, July 12, 2016 (UTC)

Zeref did something similar to August in Chapter 465 when he shot the Book of E.N.D., but i don't see anyone considering that as bullet magic. Why is it different here with August? 00:40,7/13/2016

Exactly my point which a stubborn anon so convinced it is differentStarpower98 (talk) 05:22, July 13, 2016 (UTC)

Slow Magic?
???

He clearly outsped Racer with his own speed, who said he had Slowing Magic...--BDGAF (talk) 22:23, November 8, 2016 (UTC)

Racer uses Slowing Magic. He always has; that is how he appears to move faster than others. August, to outspeed Racer, must also use Slowing Magic to enter that same perception of time. It's common sense. 23:23, November 8, 2016 (UTC)

"It's common sense." lmaooo, what? First of all, I know what type of magic Racer uses. Second, August outsped Racer because his speed was still faster than Racer's even when slowed. Third, "common sense", there is nothing common about what we're talking about, and anyways you were wrong so :/. --BDGAF (talk) 23:14, November 20, 2016 (UTC)

Says who? I believe you just didn't understand what was going on in that fight, August, as a king of magic, was literally showcasing that he's capable of beating Crime Sorc at their own magic. 23:22, November 20, 2016 (UTC)

But isn't it still speculation, since there is no proof? It could be that he too is using slowing magic, it could be that he can immunize himself to the manipulation or it could also be as BDGAF said... we just don't have any proof. Granted the third point is rather unlikely, but numbers 1 and 2 are equally likely in my opinion. What's worse is that we didn't even get to see how he beat Racer, since that happened entirely off-screen. NoNickNeeded (talk) 06:36, November 21, 2016 (UTC)

No, what is speculation is thinking that it was something else, because in that moment, he was using the magics of Crime Sorciere. That is why it is common sense. 10:26, November 21, 2016 (UTC)

Sometimes I really don't get the rules by which such border-line speculation cases are decided. At times the common sense conclusion is rejected due to a lack of proof and at other times you basically get yelled at for pointing out that there is no proof "Because it's common sense." NoNickNeeded (talk) 11:54, November 21, 2016 (UTC)

Admittedly, common sense is just a phrase at this point, so I'd just name it 'reading with comprehension'. I truly don't get why y'all don't see what was happening in that short fight. It's simple. I'm trying to think of how to rephrase my previous statement to make it more clear, but I feel I already made it as obvious as it gets:


 * 3 members of Crime Sorciere threw their main magic at August. August made it obvious that not only he was aware of those magic, he could also make use of them in order to overpower their respective users: he was able to 'hear' Erik to such extent that he could counter his attack, he was able to fire Macbeth's Spiral Pain back at them in a way that it looked like he could use that magic even better than Macbeth. So why in the name of a penguin would it be something different for Sawyer? He used Sawyer's magic better than Sawyer himself, in order to 'outspeed' him.

There truly isn't a tutorial or a guideline on how to decide whether something is a speculation or not, that's why things can only be decided on case-by-case basis. That's why when there is a confusion, all we can do is to debate about it. However, sometimes it seems like some of you are looking at things in a very wrong way, even in cases like this one which is pretty clear imo. 13:36, November 21, 2016 (UTC)

Quote
I like to put in for Quotes, his recent one he said to Jellal, "There is no good or evil in light, or darkness. It does not exist. If there is justice in this world, it may well lie in love, and naught else", MAN that was one deep and one of the most realistic quotes I have heard in Fairy Tail CoolJazzman (talk) 07:50, November 9, 2016 (UTC)

Do you mean the quote on top (which August currently doesn't have oO ), or the quote "collection" further down the article? Because if it's the latter, you can add it yourself. Just take care to follow the formant and put a correct reference in.

In the latter case we'd have to hold a vote and this one seems quite fitting for the top quote in my opinion, since it shows some of his views on the world. NoNickNeeded (talk) 08:21, November 9, 2016 (UTC)

Agreed 08:58, November 9, 2016 (UTC)

To THANK YOU To NoNickNeeded I actually meant for the collection below, but for the top Quote, I think so far, that would the best one to add at the moment, but let see what other people think as well. CoolJazzman (talk) 11:15, November 9, 2016 (UTC)

Age
august age, i think august born a year or 2 year after makarov born based comic. so in x792 august age is around 94 or 95. he is born in x697 or x698. cause makarov born on march 696 and then mavis left the guild, half year later she met zeref and its around august or september when zeref say he spend a special time with mavis (based on chapter 526)

That's a speculation which cannot be added to the article. 13:34, March 14, 2017 (UTC)

Magic
On chapter 526, it looks like he is using Meteor to dash through Gildarts and Cana, which would confirm him keeping magic he copies.  Red Riding Hood赤いず乗りきん頭巾   (Speaketh )  15:23, April 26, 2017 (UTC)

He also seemed to use Lightning Magic against Gildarts on Chapter 525.  Red Riding Hood赤いず乗りきん頭巾</rt> </rp>  (<font color="Black" face="Algerian">Speaketh )  15:23, April 26, 2017 (UTC)
