Did you like the twist?
Black Clover
no way tabata planned it.
editors probably swooped in to save the shitshow
Is Julius the Aizen of this generation but written better?
Stop seething, Jeremy.
Is it another Vengeance situation? Haven’t followed it since anime ended.
BC has been shit since the whole demon shit started
The first one was good
Tabata has done so many "long cons" in the series that I believe he probably had this planned from the start.
Julius aka the Wizard King was actually Demon Ruler Astaroth.
heh
realy liked it and opens up a whole bunch of new questions and sheds a new light onto a whole lot of the story.
I wouldnt be surprissed if he had planned it from the start.
can someone explain the twist to someone who doesnt read BC
Unironically
K I N O

Hokage turns out to have been the final villain from the start, with huge implications.
A twist done pretty good imo, not even an asspull
Holy shit what an amazing chapter. Rest up well Tabata
can you give me an example of the foreshadowing? i want to see if its worth reading or just overhyped
no one spoonfeed this nigger
lol what a normal reaction to a question surely this doesnt make you seem retarded
The user making the foreshadowing charts PLEASE make a detailed one with pics of clocks AND the context of each clock. I'll help if you need help
It is worth reading it. Fast paced, solid shounen.
It doesnt try to be anything else tho, so dont expect more then a shounen.
But this latest twist, and some rather big ones earlier are pretty damn well executed (think black zetsu but done right). Also most of the side characters get a good amount of screentime, character development and moments to shine.
Just give it a try, without spoiling yourself anymore
also character design
i got nothing better to do so i guess ill try it out. i never really liked how all the fights ive seen from this manga end in "my friends" or strong emotion but i guess if thats how it works cant do anything about it
reddit.com
It has all the necessary information and this was made a year ago without all the clocktower hints. It's very well put together just from research even outside black clover.
I still don't understand, so julius and astaroth are the same person?
Lucius means light in Latin btw
the "my friends"-part is true, tho it often is also quite literal because they utilze actual planned and thought-through teamwork in the fights
hope you have a good time reading
No, Julius was probably getting manipulated from within his own body the whole time. Lucius reemergence was probably set on a timer, hence why he says “time’s up”. Lucius probably has a contract with Astaroth, which somehow led to Julius being able to use Time Magic or something. The specifics aren’t clear yet, anyone else’s guess would be as good as mine.
Dude you anons are so fucking smart
going through the previous threads now
> THIS IS WHY THAT MOTHERFUCKER RECRUITED YAMI AND WILLIAM
DAMN MY MIND IS BLOWN BY YOU FAGS EVERY WEEK WTFFF
>That STILL wasn’t even his endgame
Will Lucius be Aizen-tier?
*lux means light in latin
time seems to be the magic of the devil Astaroth, Lucius probably has (or had) some type of body related magic. I guess nerve magic. But since he was sitting in some kind of wheelchair in the flashbacks, he might have lost it (or traded it?). Perhaps he accomplished something like a complete merger.
Seems neat I'll grab the nyaa chapters
& Lucius is derived from that, semantics are irrelevant
did you vote for the man who will end the deck of cards continent today?
shonenjump.com
Yes but I love the clock theory even more.
I wonder if HxH will STILL be on hiatus after BC comes back in three months
That character had no purpose sitting out the major arc conflicts. It's good use of his overpowered time ability.
100%
Black Clover will finish before HxH ends it's hiatus
Tabata: We have Aizen at home
it was really good, but the way people reacted, well, lets just say there was an overreaction.
So.. Tabata did an Aizen twist?
I like because it makes the movie more appealing to watch now. Like how are they going to incorporated the reveal in the movie, with subtle clocktowers in the movie?
>Julius was being controlled
>He's still a good boy
Why is Tabata like this?
The movie is almost certainly not going to adapt this. It's just way too far away, Unless you think it'll be a trilogy of movies each as long as the LOTR films or titanic or something
he prob didn't have his power until some of the gates opened bro
How are the clocktowers of significance? I remember the post about how it's always 6pm, but I fail to see how it relates. Have autism plz be patient
can someone make a clock + the context chart?
so far we have the following list
>Just checked the chapters and rereading them with the implication that Julius is rewinding time every time a tragedy happens makes me view everything differently.
>274: Ancient Demon shows and wipes everyone out immediately. The clock is show three times so this would be this happened thrice.
>279: The Twins appear and murder Natch and Jack immediately
>280: Natch fails to dodge the twins attack and dies. The Heart Kingdom Squad fails to arrive on time and the lesser demons kill many. The Ancient Demon gets back up and Mereoleona is killed. The dark triad achieve 100% and murder their respective opponents. The ancient demon arrives at the Clover Kingdom and Asta fails to finish his training in time.
>284: The Heart Kingdom Squad possibly fails to arrive on time again and many are killed by the lesser demons. Pic related happens and Natch dies again
>289: The Twins fuse and drops the sun on everyone. Asta fails to have his flashback.
> first chapter after hiatus
> asta's anti-magic cancels this reveal and julius is back to normal
post yfw
>adrammalech probably saw asta die a hundred times until he finally won
The anime ended with them getting ready for the invasion. They might rush the movies and do a long adaption when the TV anime returns like how Demon Slayer made 8 episodes out of the movies.
Alot of shit did happen so I do see what you mean, but where else would the movie end? Asta using Yami's katana to slice the demon kaiju and not show Lucy at all?
Are these all the threads so far or did I miss any?
>nostakes clover? more like keikaku clover
time keeps changing erratically and even Luci looked to it. It implies that Julius kept messing with it until the party won.
AIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE STOP IT TABATAAAAAA
IS THIS HOW IT FEELS WHEN YOUR ENTIRE REALITY IS CRUMBLING AROUND YOU
YAMEEETTEEEEE TASUKETEEEE
Pretty good twist, I hope oda has some good explanation, at this rate all other shounen will end up having better reveals, though he did admit that he makes things up as he goes so maybe he did make a huge mistake
24/7 BC threads is a nice feeling actually, i thought the bump in shitposting would be way higher.
> disney clover bro lollll
> within weeks: KEIKAKU CLOVER
what other redemption arcs can match up to this?
>Started from legolas and now we're here
>oda
there's gonna be a dry spell for 3 months, but we went into hiatus hell with a mindbreaking bang, both chapter wise and threadwise
FINALLY, TIME BEGINS TO MOVE
I can't read analog cuz im a brainlet, what time is it?
You schizos can't stop seething about this imaginary Jeremy
7:30
> it's still here
so why is it a hour whole after the meme time (6:36-ish)
does spade have different time zones?
did the reverted time get stockpiled and released all at once? (kinda is like how we jumped from the victory aftermath immediately to yuno seeing his mother, asta sitting on top of a building, etc or maybe I'm bullshitting lol)
