Yes. It was. This chapter made all the possible character development, plot improvements that was placed in the previous chapters to be gone. It was like Mashima was showing a dark and more serious tone, then suddenly in one chapter it became "poof", gone like it never existed. Everything turns good for FT and they start counter attack.
