Mixed chapter indeed.
Gray one-shotting a Natsu-level opponent and freezing his attack was cool but kinda sudden, though Gray does have demon slaying magic after all. I'm not 100% convinced that Tempesta is out yet but he probably is, wouldn't be much of a point to him considering the other foes they have to fight. Huh, wonder what Natsu' big final fight is gonna be then.
Good set up for the final Erza/Kyouka showdown. Hopefully it'll be even and full of armors.
