^Exactly. I feel like Hiro doesn't even really try anymore as far as action goes. He's rushing the action part of this Manga so hard without realizing action is one of the things he needs to focus on the most. At least 70%, if not 80%, of this Manga is just about action.

6 one-shots in just one chapter is an achievement (Kagura one-shotting Simon makes sense and is actually a good thing tbf to her so I won't count it in). Even for Hiro. In contrast, the three chapters so many people had problems with, chapters 320, 321 and 322 combined, had only 5 one-shots. Actually, I'm not sure you can even call those last hits one-shots since Minerva, Orga, Lyon and Chelia received damage before they got defeated and Laxus and Jura fought for a while but we only got to see half a chapter or so of it. So all in all, that makes this chapter's action even worse than those three combined o_O

The Anime has the potential to pick up the pieces and make this arc enjoyable when it returns of course, but usually, if a fight or an arc turns out to be bad in the Manga, it will most likely be so in the Anime as well. This is definitely one of those "I hope I'm wrong" moments but what can I say, man... Ever since the Anime's version of the GMG, I just can't get hyped for it anymore. :/
