Chapter cover was nice. Fan service for everybody. ^__^

The beginning of the chapter had me laughing my ass off. I know that was supposed to be a serious moment, but all I could think of was Star Wars. >:D Anyhow, even though Silver says he's Gray's father, there is obviously something more to that story. So I'm not going to comment on that just yet. Meanwhile, Natsu and the others face off against their respective opponents and it looks like the Demons have the upperhand. Elsewhere, Sting and Rogue are still facing off against Mard Geer... and getting absolutely nowhere. Meanwhile (I'm going to be using this word a lot), Erza, Minerva, Frosch, and Lector meet up with Lily and Happy. Minerva immediately rips the mushroom off of Happy's head recognizing it as Franmalth, and I literally laughed my ass off for ten minutes straight. Elsewhere (going to be using this a lot too), we discover what was off about Silver. He's not really Gray's dad... he's Deliora!!!! Awesome!!!!! Anyhow, Deliora says he's going to kill Gray, but Gray goes all batshit crazy and charges at him.

Okay, this was an awesome chapter! Most of the chapter was just filler nonsense, but the Silver/Deliora/Gray thing was awesome! Or at least I think it is. Frankly, it's 4 a.m. here and my brain is fogged. I might find some issue with this reveal in the morning, but as for right now, I am pretty damn stoked about it. On another note, I hate that Mashima is using Gray's struggles as motivation for Juvia again. We get it. She's in love with him. That doesn't mean her entire life has to be defined by him. Umm... let me see... what else... Oh yeah, I hate Mard Geer and his extremely feminine face and demeanor.
