Lol... yeah... like you said, it wasn't a bad chapter, but an empty chapter. Everything was sort of "uh, alright what next". I'm still waiting for Brandish to do something outright unexpected by the Spriggan 12. That, however is becoming less of a reality... Mashima is sort of easing her betrayal in, which is a big no. I'm also kind of surprised Invel said nothing as she casually walks in and takes some people... As for Juvia and Gray... yeah I'm not really that interested. It will probably be an internal conflict- battle. Just look at the length of their chain thing lol, how are they supposed to actually fight each other?
