Looks like Mashima is really trying bring that 'Nostalgia' feeling back :P. He's including a lot of stuff from arcs, or even spicing up the 'common' things; Wendy getting motion sickness as well. The kid's expression to Team Natsu lol. Like you said, it was nice to see Lucy attacking the guards, I honestly thought she was going to stay at the back and let Erza, Gray, and Natsu do stuff... very nice change! more progression for one of my favorite characters ;). Anyways, while it was mainly a transition chapter, I liked it, the balance between information given and not given, as well as the story itself was nice. (+the character progression from Lucy; really looking to see her fight now, that alone actually gets me quite hyped up to see what more she has gained throughout the timeskip :P).
