​@@Thatfan864 i think it was really great. Land of The Sun arc was a lot more focused on the introspective aspects, because Asta was at a pretty low point in this arc. He got rejected by sister Lily, sucked it up like a trooper, but then got told to off himself by her literally minutes later. She even nearly killed him. He was then landed in some foreign country where he understood absolutely nothing. During the arc, the focus was mainly on Asta dealing with his own inner thoughts and ultimately overcoming his greatest fear at the end, and then clearing up the sky with Zetten, which can be interpreted as Asta finally cutting down the cloud in his mind. if you look at from that perspective, its not that bad of an arc. Besides, its just the build-up for the final arc, which I think it does a fairly great job at doing.

One thing some people don't point out too much is that even though Tabata kinda fumbled Morris towards the end of the Spade Arc, he had Lucius bring him back which showed he still had plans for him and ever since he came back, Morris has been great. Really shows why Lucius is the GOAT and I can't wait to see what else he does going forward.

What exactly were you expecting from a 3rd grade character like Morris? He was the pawn of the dark triade and now is the pawn of the next antagonist. Scientists are often just used and abused.

Lucius is the Gojo of Black Clover. The best parts involved him, making him too important in a show with hundreds of characters.

What I like about this a lot is that Julius' first battle in the story made him appear like a villain, too. The members of the Midnight Sun returned to their base with a kidnapped Asta and Julius appeared out of nowhere, which made a lot of people (including me) think he was in on it with them and betraying the Clover Kingdom, even if just for a moment.

Its true even just his look sometimes I felt like he was in on something that the wizard king shouldn't have been doing. The way he blocked off communication as well to sneak off and look around the kingdom now makes it seem like it was part of it. Like both Yami and Vangeance were shown to have been recruited by Julius. And I think they are the only ones, I don't think that it is a coincidence either. So many more things make more sense and other things seem to go deeper. The reveal is definitely amazing.

Well, if Lucifero had won thousands of times already simply using his gravity presence and brute force alone at another timelines but that's changed and make it never happened because Astaroth's time manipulation, I think it's pretty understandable for Lucifero to not use any spell. "Of course I'd win this easily (I already did thousands of times already), why would use any spell if I can win by simply punching them" or something along those lines. I'd be confused as hell too if something like that happens. In the end, Lucius know Lucifero is cocky af and that ultimately bring him to his demise. Being the ultimate strong makes him not using his "battle IQ" fully. With changing to Jump Giga, Tabata sensei have more prep time and I faithfully believe that he will deliver peak.

Lucifero is a trash villain written in anime history. Bad writing.

From a narrative standpoint it was a genius move by Tabata to introduce us to Lucius Zogratis. Instead of introducing a completely new character to be the final antagonist he used a already established character Julius and opened a new facette on him. That way he avoided a Kaguya Otsotuki situation. It's the other way around. Aizen is for years regarded as one of the best Shonen villains. I wouldn't compare them by any means. Nobody has ever heard of Lucius Zogratis. It's Julius design with inverted colors. Maybe an anime adaptation can deliver a menacing and unique demeanor to Lucius one day.

Geez Broku, I missed your Black Clover videos so much, Im crying 😭

For the 3 "L's" that appeared, all of them are explained logically. 1. Gaja not dying made sense for multiple reasons. 1st. Rill's Twilight Valhalla spell was still being kept active and literally prevents death. Gaja "died" while the spell was still being effective, but since he couldn't die until the effects we're over, he was still able to hold to "life". 2nd. Mimosa came after the fight, and Rill was not unconscious. Sure, he may have been weakened and running low on Magic, but was still trying to make sure he didn't pass out. Then comes Mimosa to heal Gaja (which was always foreshadowed but dumbasses don't know what "paying attention" if you explained to them what 2+2 is), and since Gaja was still "alive", he could be saved. 2. Morris not being a "true villian" wqs just some hype build up by a small portion of the fanbase. Him being "fumbled" was the equivalent of expexting an Elite Rank villan being top dog, when their Generals and Bosses are much, much more stronger and more of the bigger threats. So I have no fucks about him being defeated. Though him beating Dorothy off screen was a major fumble. 3. Lucifero repeated stated that Devils are the superior beings, and have no need to use Grimoires. So him not using one made sense. Megicula barely used her Grimoire and Zagred only used his because he just felt like it. Lucifero, being the prideful Devil that he is, wouldn't stoop the level of "humans". Most of these stem from people not paying attention or not being happy with the stuff THEY wantedto see. Not every story, no matter how similar it is to 100 other stories, are ever going to be the same.

I loved chapter 331. I think it is on of the best chapters coming from a shonen jump series and I always found Tabata to be really underrated regarding his foreshadowing. Also the plotpoints about Yuno having two souls in his body was so well foreshadowed that it's almost criminally overlooked in the shonen community.

Hey you pretty much hit the nail on the many issues of the Spade Arc but also Black Clover as a whole. The world building in Black Clover feels almost completely empty or non-existent especially they haven't given a one full arc or exploration on the Diamond Kingdom or the characters in it. They don't even explore the devils or their origins or just how they even came to be or the magic in the BC world. They don't explore the side or supporting characters deeply themselves or go in-depth in their personality or mindset. I think Black Clover doesn't try to go too deep in its world or its lore, mostly because of Black Clover manga's fast pacing and go through everything in the story a mile a minute which becomes a detriment to the series narrative wise.

I'm not watching this video cause spoilers but the beginning part makes me very happy. I remember all the hate near the end of the spade arc a while back. Now that I actually watched the anime, all that hate made me worried. Have more hope now

That's a great twist, but not enough to convince me to read Black Clover again, I just don't care about it, there's something about Asta and some of the characters that I really don't like, making reading it not enjoyable Also the feeling of knowing that nobody is going to die is just boring, or maybe I just don't really care about shonen manga lately, the only shonen manga I'm reading right now is onepiece and then nothing else 😂 I guess I'm more into seinen now?

Hell yeah dude this chapter revived the excitement i had for the series, great video. Also i think part of the Mimosa problem is not only the lack of at least a single death (it could have been Rill tbh even if he hadn´t gotten to make his masterpiece as it would have made it more tragic overall) but it was the wording used by Noelle when she says something like "with magic we can do anything" or something like that wich pretty much kills any anticipation regarding the fate of those 3 characters

I get he was the scapegoat for the real threat but still wish there was something more to Lucifero. After megicula’s acknowledgment of humans and Lucifero admitting they were dangerous, I really expected a more dignified end for the king of devils.

when i first read/watched black clover, julius always came off as weird in how he acted, in an almost sociopathic way, a good example is when he killed the mages to save asta, he was like "ooops they died, oh well, im gonna let one live and you get too choose who", like i know they were his enemies but it was almost like he was having fun toying with their lives. also, on a side note, i usually saw his seiyuu, morikawa toshiyuki, typecasted inyo characters who play the good guy farce only to stab you in the back, such as ashiya douman (fate series), shagia frost (gundam x), naraku (inuyasha), etc, wich also made me even more suspicious of him lol.

First of all, I really like Black Clover and I would never consider it Disney Clover or whatever, and I admit that the new saga is really good and waaay better than the Spade Saga. Moreover, the reveal that Lucius was the bad guy all along was cool, even tho a bit predictable, but I don't think it excuses ALL the errors of the Spade Saga; just saying "it was all Lucius plan all along" is still not good writing honestly, and many plot points of the Spade Kingdom Saga were just bad. I'm happy tho that Black Clover is back on the right track right now

This chapter was crazy. In my country, JJk, one piece always trend on twitter. Suddenly, Black Clover and Julius are trending which makes me so nervous and excited for the potential. This chapter blew my expectations

Even if lucifero was a fumble I believe that moris can be saved, I believe in his comeback 💪

Magna vs Dante was a 1v1 bare knuckle brawl that was actually one of the most hype chapters

I like Black Clover as a series and I am actually happy that u mention that "we have our very own aizen" but the only problem that I have with that is that I hope he is not defeated so easlly or out of pocket random magic like the fight with Lucifer and Asta he was extremely ingered to the point were I was worried that Asta was not going to come out alive because of those engerys but I also feel like Lucifers entrence was wasted he was strong don't get me wrong but I feel like he had more potential to give out I am disappointed at the fact that only half of his power was manifested and I feel like the auhtor had more potential for Lucifer but know that we have a villan like Aizan present in Black clover we have to see were the series goes from here and what are his plans for Lucia's I hope it does not end to quick cause black clover has introduced villans and all but we need a villan in the series that is like Azian I know I am comparing two different animes but I feel like we do need a better villan but how things are looking is find in my opinion we would just have to see were the aughtor takes his series from here.

let's believe in Tabata-sensei!!! I believe in him, that he will deliver peak fiction, But even if he doesn't I will still love Black Clover.

In my opinion Black Clover needs the TYBW treatment, it needs better production quality, better animation and for part of the spade kingdom to be redone in the anime.

Awesome video man

I think Lucifero embodied what it means to be the King, he can always plot again bcus he can reincarnate into any main devil and if he a devil doesn’t submit and goes back to the underworld he would torture them, any win for a devil is a win for Lucifero and I think Tabata understands the long lived aspect and esoteric meaning to a personality who doesn’t experience death

black cover heavily slept on for sure.

Tabata cooked with Lucius’s reveal, I audibly gasped so hard I was genuinely flabbergasted.

Tabata, a really good Kubo disciple.

I think Morris got his retribution in the final arc . Paladin Morris vs 100% Mareleona , bruh that was an awesome fight . Really elevated Morris as a villain in my eyes

If the time devil rewinding time until the crew won is actually a canon thing, this implies that there is a random variable that applies while dealing damage with magic because otherwise the first scenario would just repeat again resulting in everyone's death. That means yeah, Lucifero lost because of sheer luck. Justice for Lucifero

Honestly never had any issues with spade

also the fact that I think people is too busy rushing to call it bad before seeing it to the end, also the point about how some should have died I think was explained the reason why many don't is due to when we find out Asta influance in the world is bring them to the best outcome, a future not even Lucious can see@@Br0ku

I hope we don't have to wait to long for the black clover anime series to return

Personally for me, BC is my favorite series of all time, but I do have issues with it, which makes it that much greater

Bro even after this plot twist the lack of high stakes in the final battel(the battel against the counter part of julius novachrono) really messed up the story again. By high stakes i mean the lack of death because when the magic knights were on the verg of death the story always introduced a ass pull that defied the plot its self eg. the asta demon sharing power up .

8 deaths were set up during the saga, 2 from the very midpoint of it, and STILL no one died LMAO. Even if people jumped back from that single episode, the damage was already done and everyone left midway of the next arc as they had enough

Nah bro black clover still trash💀💤, 331 weren’t even a crazy plot twist, who didn’t see that coming

This guy is giving black clover justice!

I swear if we get an entire chapter monologue of Lucius recapping his master plan while beating the hell outta the MC's Ima lose it. Ima need to touch grass gotta get back to reality it'd be too much peak.

i was once called a clown, a disney clover meatrider. but i never lost hope 🗣

Just wait till it’s revealed that he’s been rewinding time over and over just to get the outcome he wanted during the devil arc

I will never forget when we beat the Disney Clover allegations🙏 there are still a lot of mysteries to unravel like Asta's dad for instance

I WAS THERE WHEN IT HAPPENED!

I remember 2020 when I was watching black clover anime ending song 10 and seeing zenon and asked my friend who read the manga showed me zenon face panel and I was like “dude Julius is alive and joined with spades bad guys ?” He was laughing

I hope The anime does Do some changes and additions And a prolog before the time skip or in the Time skip Sidenote yuno Was is Done much better in the anime In a lot of people will actually like the reveal of his Star magic better

Hi Broku, it's Shelly here. I remembered I had posted a theory on Julius is the eldest brother, on Reddit, but Julius Stans got pi**ed at me and banned me for it on Reddit. But That had turned to be truth...I hope you have a beautiful Thanksgiving.

Imma be honest, i read spade saga sarcastically as I didn't have a single doubt any characters would ever die, and it's one of the reason i don't like Black Clover, there is genuinely no stakes Not once have i stopped and ponder what would happen if they lost because i know they would never, Asta could be shown getting cut in half, blasted, reduce to ashes disintegrated, everyone knows he will come back with some random magic as has been shown multiple times in the manga. Also the reveal of Julius being a devil really made me conflicted rather than hyped, I mean come on the main evil being the secondary personality of the most powerful good guy is very specific, and yet has already been used with Licht, using it twice seems first of all cheap, and second of all easy to fix, rather than creating a secondary personality just make the guy turn out to be evil. I know he wanted Julius to stay a good guy, but that plot twist is weak Also, I'm really tired of the whole "NO tat wasn't the main evil, the main evil was plotting this whole time and is rather XXX" which happens every single arc But i think it's just that this type of manga isn't for me, it's just a manga to show off cool fight, and i shouldn't really expect it to do anything but it's job

I think Gaja's death would have been a great character development for loropechika. But sadly it didn't happen.

I dont why many people expect morris will be the final villian??? Morris is like Kabuto (from Naruto) they have potential to be threat, But overall they are just pawn to the Real final boss of their series.

Damn, i remember reading that chapter when it just released. Shit was super hype and mindblowing because it comes full circle, at that time I legit thought "Daaaang Tabata, you legit pulled out an Oda twist" lmao. Twitter was on fire that day and every KZread video about Julius' fight from years back got commented again by manga readers.

They better make Lucifero a Menace when the manga receive an anime adaptation 💪

This Chapter is the ONLY reason i started reading manga! One of the best decisions i ever made!

The way you frame Black Clover as going down is just wrong. It stayed fairly constant until it went on the current trajectory. Black Clover has always been really good.

@Br0ku

8 ай бұрын

It’s not wrong. I think black clover has always been good. But as someone who was engrained into the fandom during the Spade Saga, this is what went down.

So are we gonna casually ignore the fact that noelle became a SEA GOD'S Jinchuriki in a SINGLE PANEL!?

Its funny because from the very beginning I thought he had a very villain esque character design

Also speaking of Lucius grimoire being a Four Leaf Spade version I wonder what Four Leaf version of a Heart and Diamond grimoire symbol look like Would it be like similar to the Spade by having two Kingdom's Symbol together but unlike the Spade which is on top of each other maybe the other Kingdom symbols would face the same direction the kingdom are located on the map Tabata once drew of the Four Kindoms?

I get it, there’s flaws and could’ve been better especially with how Yuki treated Morris. But MAGNA vs Dante, still is the most hype I’ve EVER had when reading a shounen panel (I literally can’t wait to see that scene adapted, that’ll probably be my favorite moment out of all the series). Besides, I always loved how Yuki always manages to give each side character their own spotlight even when it come to the main boss fights, and that’s one of the major reasons I’ve stuck with BC for so long.

I will never forget the day I read the chapter for this first time, talking to everyone about it was a fever dream
