Time stuff is always a big risk and I always feared that it would destroy EZ's plot
But I think that Mashima has planned it and we’ll get a good explanation
Mashima's weakness was always his execution
For example, the plot with E.N.D, the Dragon Slayers, the death of Lucy's mother and Natsu and Zerefs relationship were all connected and made perfectly sense
Only his execution of E.N.D was wasted and bad
Rave had also some time travel stuff and was handled fine. It even lead to one of the most iconic and legendary moments of Mashima's career.
EZ is more complicated though so there’s a bigger risk that he could fuck up
I’m more concerned about the execution and pacing though.
