First problem is the same cause should have the same effect. Mavis and Zeref already shared a kiss and felt love for each other aaaaand ... only Mavis died.
And here we repeat the scene but we have to accept that both of them die. Why? Same cause but different effect. Sorry no.
Perfectly valid complain, nonetheless the very same chapter gives an explanation for this occurence. One felt genuine love for the other hence, he killed the person he loved despite her immortality, while the other person was a pretender. I assume that with your 30+ years of age you had plenty of relationships in your lifetime with differing levels of affection towards your former girlfriends and possibly your wife, of which some felt genuine love towards you, while you only were interested in some of their other qualitiesl
Ehhh... can someone explain to me why all of you are saying that Mavis DIED back then? Beacuse she didn't, she got into some sort of magic coma/fake death and turned into Fairy Heart, hell Precht kept her underground to try to wake her up and in that state she managed to give birth to August. So no, Zeref kiss didn't kill Mavis so there is NO REASON why her kiss should kill him. End of story. This is pure BS.
On the chapter as a whole: you know a few months (year?two?) ago on a different forum I've written that Mashima is trying really hard to follow in footsteps of Kishimoto-senpai and Kubo-senpai with their horrible last arcs. Well I was wrong, now I think it went somehow like this:
Kishimoto: Well guys, the last arc was a disaster and don't even start me on fight with Kaguya.
Kubo: You call that a disaster? Mine was cancelled so I had to wrap it really fast and kill unkillable character with cheat skill and leave massive amount of plotlines. You can't do worse than THAT.
Mashima: Rly? Hold my beer.
Yeah, trash/10.
