I agree with the "mess" sentiment. More specifically, I felt that the chapter was very good in the small details...

Mavis is quite the fashion designer at heart. Awesome dress is awesome (and there you go, my remaining macho-points just vanished). Zeref vs MAvis, both bad ass. "What business do you have staying alive...?" Fck yeah. And of course, Irene automatically wins everything. Everything.

... but as far as the overall plot goes... meh? Irene's magic conveniently placing everybody to where they should be for the story to progress is just plain bad writing. Natsu shrugging another nuke is just... and Gajeel is back, yay. Even Zera is back, double yay. Good think I have Zero (c'mon, it's funny >_<) expectations left.
