It was a nice chapter.

As for the change of plans to deal with Acnologia, it could be due to Mashima being given a time frame to end Ft and his original plan might not have fit in the given time-frame or a simple Retcons to make the story flow better than what it was before.

I actually found the original plans of the dragons to be stupid. When the face was activated it had no effect on them, so ethernano levels should affect the dragons. Igneel should have killed him when acno was temporary down.

whether the current plan to deal with acno works or not is to be seen.
