Actually I think the more intelligent(no offence intended) responses do not have as much issue about him being defeated this chapter(it had to happen right? We even thought up theories as to how he would use some bullshit to defeat him) but more with the way Mashima worded things and ultimately left mere conjecture for the power-up.

Bottom line, this chapter was bad if you look at it in that way.

Of course, if you can explain the Jutsu Shiki portion perfectly without coming up with personal theories, then it would be quite alright. :P Still, as Wrath said, the mere fact that we have to come up with explanations to an event that will likely be forgotten after this battle, says something.
