I'm aware that this manga is derivative shit, but for some reason I'm enjoying it.

Chapter straight-up confirmed Yuno is the reincarnation of Licht's kid, and Four-Star Grimoire users that fall into despair have their grimoires turned into five-stars. Good chapter.

What a stupid way for a 5 leaf clover to be created.

What remains to be seen is if new demons are born from 5-leaf grimoires or what happened when Licht fell into despair that Asta's demon started dwelling inside Licht's grimoire instead of the Lonne demon.

And what would you prefer?

????

>dark elf gets revealed
>it's not a half naked big titty monster
Dropped.

While these are important chapters for the plot and infodrops, I need more Charmy in my life.

I think of it as a negative emotional power up. Also sets up Yuno's UchiGOD mode.

Yuno is not Licht's kid's reincarnation.
Licht's kid is inside of him.

Anyone who enjoys Black Clover and doesn't realize it's mostly derivative is a bit of an idiot.

I think it's safe to assume that this guy's not gonna be defeated in this arc. So is he gonna start by taking over Clover or is he gonna fuck off to some other kingdom and come back later?

That's gay.

Last chapter did that. MS fucked up that line in the translation last time though, but the other two got it right.

DWARF

So... fairy tails 2.0

HALF dwarf

Now she unmasked the wolf inside her, how soon will she rape Yuno like a wolf instead of waiting like a sheep?

Well demon confirmed that yuno is some kind of destined hero and that asta is a literal who.
Makes me wonder how they ended up at the orphanage together if their origins are not linked in some way.

>Relaxing around a Dark Elf
Asta is lucky he didn't lose an arm here.

Asta confirmed Not-A-Dwarf. Dwarfposter btfo.

negro elfo

More like a combination of Naruto and Fairy Tail

Asta is so fucking generic and yet I like him so much? Why? How?

Nozel is here. Time for niisama to save the day.

The world could be going to shit and some evil bad guy could be ranting about philosophy and you know that Asta is just going to rush into action while keeping conversation to a minimum.

the same reason you like black clover despite how generic it is.
you dont need a unique premise if you have good execution.

failed anime axed soon

>failed

I assumed he has some relationship to the elves besides just that. He’s supposedly loved by Mana, despite not being a descendent of royalty that stole the elves mana.

Didn't even notice the unfinished Yuno here

So, who is saving them from that Patri's move? Pretty sure not Asta, because when Liar tried that, he stopped him pretty quickly, this time he was paralyzed. I would say Yami 3d slash could save them, but then, rip William.
Why does the demon even need a book? he's already broken.
Where the fuck was Yami? I hope Tabata show where he went and what he was doing.
Why is Tabata wasting time with the necrofag again?
Buffed Patri can't harm Yuno/Asta, making Julius look even more like shit.

>I need to hurry and steal his body before he dies
>Leaves him to die
What did the devil-kun meant by this?

Being derivative doesn't mean its bad.

>What did the devil-kun meant by this?
My bet is a shit translation

When will the anime take a break?
I seriously don't want to see the climactic elf arc shat on by studio clown. At the very least they should take a 25 weeks long break before adapting it.

Longrunners don't get breaks

tell that to Dragon Ball Super

Dbs source material isn't currently running weekly
BC anime is also a money maker for Pierrot

Can't wait to see what kinda shit Clown pulls for the first filler arc. Hopefully Tabata at least outlines the story for it

Probably Yuno filler rounding up the magic knights in the kingdom.

So when the elves are corrupted they become dark elves, which is what was going to happen to the others Asta saved with the third sword earlier. But I guess the devil grimoire corruption can happen to any four leaf grimoire. Having said that, what happens to like diamond, heart, or spade grimores?

We've never heard of the equivalent to a 4 leaf grimoire from other nations

Do they even have leaves?

We've only seen diamond grimoires and well, they have diamonds.

Maybe Clover's grimoires are special?

>Mimosa tagged along to do literally nothing

>Ace grimoire
>Joker grimoire

everything is derivative

She's Tetia's reincarnation, wait

Right?? I fucking bummed at this revelation.
>INB4 Yuno somehow get his 4 leaf clover to turn into 5 somehow without turning evil

Are you retarded? That means the holder succumbs to despair. It's not a powerup if you lose yourself.

This is shonen manga idiot, the rules always bend. It's really not hard to see him temporarily falling into despair and being brought back with talk no jutsu.

Because Asta's talk no jutsu ALWAYS works huh

I'm glad Tabata continues to reinforce that Asta is in fact just some fluke genetic weirdo orphan and not some mysterious eugenics-made godchild.

Asta isn't that good at talk no jutsu yet, he first had to beat the shit out of Mars and Ladros to turn them "good"

Maybe Asta's parents dumped him because of his inability to use mana. In a world where magic is needed for basic jobs, Asta was fucked the moment he was born.

>harboring the grimoire that should have been mine
what did the Virgin Demon mean by this? do demons use grimoires as well? are there demons in Spade, Heart or Diamond grimoires? was this grimoire supposed to hold him instead of AMDemon? how did AMDemon end up there? fuck I got so many questions, this is real storytelling

She's going to be a devil's new sexy succubus body. It's why her clothes are already coming off.

Soon, best boy after this fight will get laid

Charmy didn't grow THAT much

WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH NERO WHERE IS HE AND WHY THE FUCK DID HE GO THROUGH THE PORTAL WITH YUNO

He is preparing god sekke to fight giganto demono

Nero didn't, he was on Gauche's head

fuck I dropped this manga approximately 2 years ago(about 80+ chapters I think) and I regret to have undropped it. Damn I'm so fucking curious who is this demon and what is his relation to Asta's demon in his 5clover grimoire

So we understand how 5 clovers come but how did Asta get Licht's?

She´s just a womanlet

the grimore was waiting, hoping for a genetic fluke like Asta to show up.

Wow. Good luck finding a satisfying, non-asspull/PIS way of defeating this guy Tabata. I know Kishimoto sure couldn't.

Yuno is basically captain tier now right?
Will Finrel's little bro be Golden Dawn's new captain or Yuno?

He instantly healed Asta's wound, by simply speaking the word. I don't see him going down without a deus ex machina(think of the anti-quincy arrow that just so happened to counter ywach's powers in bleach).

He’s beyond captain tier now, are you fucking kidding me.

But we don't know the full extent of Asta's demon. For all we know this dudes full power could be negating all magic within a certain area near him which would be insane for Asta since he is all strength

Just clean your toilet bro

Is that why the elves couldn’t use magic when they got kristallnacht’d?

Demon could fly out of it's radius.

Not if it’s wings are made of black MANA.

Asta just follows him

>yuno gets handed power ups like candy on Halloween

demon even confirmed that he is some kind of destined hero,in any other manga he would be the protagonist.

You'd think the wings would be apart of him, if it's just mana that not only ruins the concept of demon, it also makes him look like an edgelord dressed up as one.

Sure he could use his "magnet ability" but that's super risky. The demon dude could punch him, since he looks pretty strong.

>but that's super risky.
When has Asta ever cared about something being risky?

Oh do shut up. No one complained when Charmey got her dwarf powerup, but when it's a non-waifu character that gets something good, everyone starts complaining? Unlike charmey we at least got some glimpses of Yuno's development. He went from losing to Mars, to where he is now through training. He deserves this more than anyone in this manga period.

Call me a brainlet but I still do not understand where Devil guy comes from and why or how he needs a "real body" or how he gets it in the first place.

No he never had a body

Licht just didn't fall into despair at that moment and they defeated the demon or another demon took it and he just fucked off

My best guess is bad translation

Patri is super duper powerful right now but he's gonna burn himself out quickly.
Yuno is a filthy half-breed and another series special snowflake protagonist.
Hahaha oh wow this nigga has no magic lmao but the fucker took my book I'll take his body later before he gets killed for being a magicless manlet fuck I'll be a manlet too.

But wasn't he going to steal Patri's body?

Also won't william have some complaints about a new person?

Either the demon can use his words to teleport just himself and Asta away just like how he teleported Patri and himself when he was Ronne, or Valtos can come in and teleport everyone away or just Patri away and die beside his master's side.

>His tail has 3 hearts
why do I think that's going to be Devil power rankings

I'll admit you have a point, but remember that demonChad's magic isn't ordinary. When he summoned those blades that he used to attack Asta and Yuno, Asta quoted that some of them where real actually real. So I don't think he'd be completely helpless if Asta were to pull something like that.

Nice catch, that's probably it with the King being the highest authority and the ace being their strongest. Asta's demon is a wildcard since it eating up all the magic can both fuck over everyone in the process in a world full of magic, which is why his demon is codenamed Hungry Joker

>which is why his demon is codenamed Hungry Joker
That fucking hack better not.

>someone with less depth and character than a Dragon Ball character
>deserving any kind of powerup

Not explained where he came from but it's likely some spiritual world so he cannot come into the real world without a body.

He's got as much as depth as Asta, as they both have the same goal.

This one makes more sense. It's inconsistent, though. Why is he leaving if he has to steal Asta's body before he dies? Maybe he knows that the dark elf will do it for him somehow.

Attached: makes_more_sense.png (896x1300, 252K)

Maybe he recognized that it's a suitable body for a fellow demon?

I had a really hard time picking up BC when it was newer as a manga. But I powered through and watched the anime and damn is this show fun. Also has a cast where you can find something cute or interesting about nearly every character. The ride has been fun so far and worth it.

so far it feels like Bleach+Naruto+Berserk to me which is why I LOVE it

the Julius powercreep is the only fault I have with BC so far.. it doesn't make sense unless it's somehow explained Julius was only using 25% of his power because of the dual body issue and how Julius is ultimately good

I imagine he was holding back to try and save William but was ultimately beaten

He didn't go in with Asta but then went in when Yuno did.

he doesnt want Patri's body, just his grimoire, why he suddenly wants Asta's body is a mystery.

prediction: the little bird will turn out to be a demon jailer or some shit and will ultimately banish the demon

You sly bastard user

Damn, Tabata's a good dude.

absolute chad

No, you dumbass, it's confirmed that he's got some sort of dumb magic destiny and that licht's half-human kid is the soul in that body although Yuno's memories/personality are in control

lol what is this writing

The guy only had 1 spell in his entire grimoire, so he acquired another spell. What is wrong with that?

Up to this day, this is my favorite meme'd-to-reality shit we ever did.
Don't meme to reality zombie julius please

Based

Yuno is alright. Maybe it’s because I’m a huge poorfag but Yuno is inspiring in the same way Asta is. Not to mention, each and every double spread Tabata has made of them has been god tier so far.

Just use an olg mechanic from RPGs, silence spell.

It was already established that grimoire "logic" can change due to the needs and/or wishes of the user. The less developed the more it can change.

Couldn’t Rades save Patri doing this? Technically his soul was “sacrificed” in order to create the five leaf. Maybe after Asta purges him with the Demon Destroyer?

>sister Lily dies
>Asta becomes like this
When will Tabata evolve to TABATAAAAAAA?

Why would he? Even though the elves were being manipulated they intentionally sacrificed him.

So does Fana have offensive spells yet?

The thing about BC is that O MY moments are a built in part of the power system. Being pushed to extremes can can give you a power up ultra instinct style

Because he is subverting a lot of tropes while playing some straight. Thus far the entire subversion of him being a literal who has been refreshing. Also his entire hard work ethic and not having gained any bullshit magic powers. He has gotten the bullshit antimagic powers but that’s acceptable. If he ever gains mana or is revealed to have been a super secret eugenics project to create the ubermensch I’m going to drop and rage

Maybe because Rades has actually matured a bit and sympathizes with Patri. I read this panel as a “I AM LICHT, LICHT IS ME” sort of deal.

O MY ONE PAGE!

Ok so I just literally finished the available chapters of BC for 3 days. IT'S SO FUN. I love the characters and how the action just keeps on happening. So many funny moments as well. Now it's not the best, but it's really really good.
I havent seen the anime yet, is it ok? Or should I just skip it?

The anime is slow but has its moments.

>O MY DEMON REINCARNATION MAGIC
>AFTER I'M DEFEATED
>RETURN RANDOM CHILD #3 TO LIFE
>GIVE HIM LICHT'S APPEARANCE
>WHILE REDUCING HIS IQ BY HALF
>AND FILL HIM WITH HATRED FOR HUMANITY

Maybe, but for what reason? Patri has been technically deas for 500 years now, he's only "alive" because of a devil's plans, you don't have much reason to "save" Patri, only to let him die again when Will comes back.

The sad part about this is his new spell is not even a new spell, is a different way to use the only one he had.
This guy is forever a pagelet.

Patri is already a goner but Rades will be able to save William.

It's a rollercoaster of quality with most of it being bad quality, they apply themselves at the cool moments though

I think he was always stupid, that's not the demon's fault

When you idolized someone and put him in a pedestal, you stop figuring him out and people will abuse your ignorance to use you, which is what happened to Patri.

Fanboy failed to see Licht as a person and it cost him.

I’m a bit confused, is there a reason why Patri looks like Litch?

Pure, raging homolust

The real reason is probably that Wevil did it to stroke Patri’s ego as Licht’s “chosen one” and hero of the elves, as well as use Patri’s raging homolust for Licht to stop Patri from doubting anything or asking too many questions

There are ways around this.
1. Behead him or otherwise kill him so quickly that he doesn't have time to heal.
2. Injure his vocal cords so he won't be able to speak anymore, thus negating his magic.
3. Stab him with an anti-magic sword so he will no longer be able to activate his magic properly.

>2. Injure his vocal cords so he won't be able to speak anymore, thus negating his magic.
I only see this happening. Since he can fly it seems unlikely that he will be blitzed or stabbed.

Just jam the anti magic sword inside his mouth

Jack is turning her hate into love, if you know what I mean.

Sekke is the Apostle of Wisdom, the wisest elf in existence. The devil manipulated the elves, but it's Sekke that manipulated the devil.

>He has eye spells
>He looks at demon boy and melts him
But this is the actual demon's power. Do you think they actually need to say something to use their spells? Not a single character needs, they "do it" because it's a manga, it's better to read if they're saying what they're doing.

You're right! I guess that opens up the gate for theories on what the demons magic is since it can't be word magic.

Don't be gay.

> implying sekke is a stupid elf.
Sekke was around long before the elves and the clover kingdom.
He created the the entire clover continent with a mere gaze, and is only known by an enlightened few who worship him such as sister lily.
He manipulates the demons as a way to stress test the clover kingdom and naturally select the strongest into creating a country full of SSS tier mages
Praise Sekke

Certain types of magics can only be activated in a certain way. Licht probably wouldn't be able to cast a sword magic spell without wielding a sword first, Rila probably wouldn't be able to use painting magic without summoning his brush first and I doubt the devil can use word magic without speaking the words first.

Well, that's what I meant if you're a good interpreter.

>saying words arnt a prerequisite for using word magic
>Other mages have prerequisites for their spells so it makes sense that words are a prerequisite for word magic

Stfu user

Licht gets his swords from the grimoire and Rill's paint brush is not part of his grimoire.
