That's the main explanation but I still find it dumb how they specifically cut out Gildarts' foreshadowing but included a bunch more... I'm not gonna mention any of them cuz spoilers, but yeah, odd that they handpicked Gildarts mentions IMO

iirc The anime started with the first 48 episodes and they didn't know if they were going to be adapting the manga past that point. That's why Gildarts isn't mentioned in the Anime until after the Battle of Fairy Tail. They didn't know if Gildarts would even appear in the Anime until they needed him.

Gildarts was mentioned a bunch in the manga before actually being introduced, which they cut out of the anime so the first time they ever actually name dropped him IN THE ANIME was right before he came.
If I remember right, in the manga during the Battle of Fairy Tail arc when Laxus and Mystogan fight and Laxus goes "I wonder who's the strongest Fairy Tail Wizard, you or me", I'm pretty sure Mystogan replies with "Gildarts". And since Gildarts was gone on a 100 year quest for over 3 years Laxus replied with something like "the old man's never coming back". His name was dropped a couple of times way back then in the manga, sucks that they cut it out of the anime

Gildarts was on a 100 year quest, which means it hasn't been completed in a 100 years. :D
