I liked the Magic Dance Ball and The Terror of Invisible Lucy too, but they aren't apart of the arc. The first Jiggly Butt Gang episode is related to the arc, but not exactly apart of it.

It felt half-assed to me. The middle part of this arc in particular felt as if they half-assed it. The fight choreography was really bad (Natsu vs Leo using pretty much the same moves in a stalemate) and fights had no tension whatsoever. And the writing team put no effort whatsoever in trying to explain anything and make sure things made sense. I feel as though they could've put a lot more time, effort and maybe resources into this arc to make it better. With the kotts arc, aside from more budget and some minor tweaks to the story here or there i don't see too much room for improvement.
