I don't know... I can't say I felt anything while reading this chapter. Not even the funny part felt funny because it seemed so not like Brandish to me. At least we have a clue on why she treats Marin the way she does, it's all Aquarius fault. The explanation for Aquarius coming back was believable and predictable but along with the explanation of he key already being back now makes me feel like I was cheated at getting the feels back then. I guess it's not that bad for the key to regenerate but if it does it should take about a century or so for it to happen so all that would actually make sense.

I don't know anything about Rave Master so I can't get the context where this was taken from but in this situation it just sems like a cheap way for everything to be explained. I mean, I guess collecting all information about the CS was Crux's thing, now it's like he is sort of obsolet. Also, if all the Celestial Spirits were there all the misteries in the series could have easilly been explained a long time ago. It seems too convenient for the ability to be used just now, and even then there's some information missing about the opening of the Eclipse Gate including what happened to the DS kids. Even better, they may have crucial information on Zeref and Acnologia and even Ankhseram being ancient beings and all.

Zoldeo being the killer was predicted by someone else, not me though, but the reason was a bit crazy, though he seemed completelly crazy there. What I don't get is how does this story go from "Mother never came back from her visit" to "Layla killed my mother because of the key". Zoldeo seemed too obsessed with Layla at that point to blame her so there may be someone else involved in this otherwise this feels just like Hiro is trying to turn Zoldeo in a scapegoat for all of this mess and making way for Brandish's ultimate conversion (something I would find amazing if it didn't happen and she continued to serve Zeref even after that).

I'm guessing that the last thing Aquarius wanted to say was regading Natsu's past, after all she is prone to know about it, him arriving there makes it even more convenient for such a revelation. The title of the chapter may imply that it's Lucy thinking about how he should act when finding out Natsu's true nature as E.N.D. awekening and Aquarius telling her to finish him of (a.k.a. the NaLu shipper's most dreamed moment). Otherwise it's just Brandish's conflicting loyalities coming int play. Also this chapter proved my aproximation of Brandish's age wrong, damn it. Anyway, this is it o/.
