Interesting. For a change, I liked this chapter, considering the fact that I am more of a guy who likes chapters full of twists and turns and this chapter had nothing of that sorts. Would like to give it 4/5.
Things I liked:
-Erza as a seventh guild master is a good choice, IMO. Also, her rape face on that panel was epic.
-The chapter started in typical fairy tail way. The usual madness and Natsu barging in Lucy's house. Maybe some things never change.lol
-Also, Mest Gryder got a nice entry in the last panel. It is interesting to see how we get to see more out of Mest Ryder and Makarov and their 'relation'. Yeah, their relation, because Makarov was the one who revealed the entire Mest Ryder past and now Mest Ryder is the one who is going to tell us about Makarov. Interesting isn't it?? I doubt if Makarov is on the dark side, but rather I think he is up for some quest, just like Erza and Grey were.
Things that I didn't quite like:
-Middle pages could have been made more interesting. Not much info about new powers of Elfman, only the normal FT stuff.
-Also, no info about Gildarts's location. In last chapter, Cana said that she was on quest to find Gildarts, so what happened to that??
Also, in this chapter she talked about Gildarts as if she knows where Gildarts is. So, I was expecting it to be revealed. Same can be said about Laxus and all. Though I am expecting it to happen in next chapter as Mest is here.
Overall, I liked this chapter.
