This was another of those chapters already filling this arc.

A set up one.

I mean apart from the reveal about gear 4s weak point, nothing big really happened to prepare for the next few chapters. This would be alright and all, but dear god this comes right after another huge bunch of setups.

The only thing I see as a justification for this is if we see Gear 5 soon. At least that may be enough of a reward for all this buildup.
