For Fraxus fans, let’s compare this ship with the BIG4 and see how there are a lot of similarities.
Here we see panels in which they fight against each other. For Gajevy and Gerza (and also Gruvia) it happened in the beginning when they were still enemies, while Gray and Juvia, Natsu and Lucy, and Freed and Laxus, were forced to fight against each other.
Here we see panels where they not only fight side by side, but also do some great teamwork. Here the Gruvia is the most evident because they do a Unison Raid, while the Gerza the least evident because they only fight side by side. Gajevy, Nalu and Fraxus, on the other hand, do a good teamwork.
For those who say Fraxus is just a joke… oh well, because other couples don’t have funny moments, right? This doesn’t make the couple less valid, on the contrary, it only makes it more valid from my point of view.
They care about each other. Note that in ALL these panels one is worried because the other is dead/nearly dead. Levy sees Gajeel being sucked in front of her, Juvia sees Gray die, Erza sees Jellal throw himself at Acnologia, Lucy thinks Natsu is dead even after rewriting the book, Freed sees Laxus pass out in front of him after ingesting Magical Barrier Particles . They are all so worried about their loved ones.
In these panels we see how, after one enemy has hurt their loved one, the other gets worried and pissed off swearing revenge and fighting. See how similar the expressions of Gajeel, Gray, Jellal, Natsu and Laxus are.
Some are more evident such as Gajevy, Gerza and Gruvia. Nalu and Fraxus are less obvious.
I could also add Elfever and show how they too have all these moments (in a less evident way than BIG4 because they are secondary characters).
All this to say, I know that Fraxus is not canon (and that it is treated more like a strong friendship) and I know that it lacks developments that other couples have had. But if this development started, it would not be forced at all. They already have many moments. Yes, you can interpret it as platonic (because for now it is), but the bases to make it canon are there!
