Ah, yeah, I was thinking maybe the "God" prefix stuck with Serena because he was the first god of Ishgar, but not entirely sure.

Laxus I hope gets some type of improvement to him. Not necessarily an upgrade in power, because he's always been strong enough --though, I won't be surprised if we see a Dual Element mode with him, or possibly even dragon force during one of his clashes-- but what I am really hoping for out of him is an increased role. He's always been cast aside, and with good reason, because having him be apart of all the fun would just be considered cheating, just like if we were to throw in Gildarts into the equation (who I doubt will be apart of this arc, unfortunately).

Finally, there are some meaningful opponents who can legitimately give Laxus a fair fight!
