Thankfully, Gray didn't do a thing in this battle; everything was handled by Gildarts. Most of the chapter was just Gildarts kicking ass. Nice little chapter. Though, like FTGM, I'd've thought that Gray would have more of an emotional reaction when he sees Gildarts, but, then, doesn't mean much. You know, look up to from afar kinda thing.

Zero was okay; for a monthly, it's quite slow. Liked the Eclair and Monmon cameo, shows that the events in The First Morning span years rather than just a few days. Also liked Precht's badassery; he's awesome. \(^_^)/ But disappointed that Zero is quite childish, more so than FT. I had hoped it wouldn't be and the first chapter was great, but the last three chapters show otherwise. Zeira's reveal could change this, but, if it's done in a very "Think about the future, not the past." or something kind of way with Mavis just crying and then moving on, I'd find it extremely disappointing. Mavis' illusion was awesome, but the flawed magic circle just reenforced the 'childish' part, so not that thrilled with it. So a meh chapter for me, but just a personal opinion.
