This chapter was surprisingly good. I can't ecen remember the last time I had so little to complain about one chapter. My only issue with it is that Neinhart actually got one shotted last chapter. I mean, what's the point of sending him to battle if he's gonna get one shotted again? At least there's the possibility of his historias not vanishing because of Eileens enchantment.

I liked that Natsu is down again and that Lucy could hold her own against Brandish for such a long time even though it was obvious that she was holding back. What I don't liked that much is that she can use Aquarius power's without the key.

My biggest surprise was when Dimaria just slashed Brandish right there instead of being talked into conversion. Surely Brandy isn't dead but well played Hiro. Now Lucy needs to be saved because even with everything she's shown I'd find it hard to believe she can take down Dimaria alone. The problem is that when I think about someone helping the only one who comes to mind is Erza. And before moving on, I dont think I like Dimaria's new outfit and I can't stop thinking Hiro changed something in her face and hair.

I'd like it if Hiro finished this subplot before moving back to Mavis but whatever. Did Zera reached already? I hope not, that would mean Zeref's guard is flawed. I hope this is more of a flashback episode with Zera talking to Gajeel.
