Emails in the inbox are displayed normally, however when I try to open an email, it is as if there is nothing there.. print screens below:

Are you using Adblock Plus?

There's an ABP filterlist that is blocking too much in Gmail. Disable ABP at Gmail to verify that is the problem.

EDIT: Disabled all filters with mail.google and still nothing.. I'll try unticking anything with google now

EDIT: Deleted subscriptions and added new ones. Now it works:

I've got: - EasilyList - EasyPrivacy - Malware Domains

Since you don't know what is it I doubt you use it, and I doubt it is the cause of your problem.
