Yes, August has been hyped by the other characters and spriggans as well. But, we all know by now that the hype means nothing. Im not saying that he doesn't deserve being #1 on the Spriggan 12. He will probably wreck everybody and Gildarts would have to come in. However, I'm also speculating that God Serena might even be stronger than him, or if he doesn't have any spells to counter Age Seal, then Dimaria may still have the advantage over him. But, at this moment, he hasn't shown any feats so I will not rank him, yet. I think you're placing Neinhart way too high. We don't know the full capabilities of those Historias. Maybe they operate on Neinhart's magic power, or maybe something else. Who knows at this point.
