This was the chapter that really sold me on Black Clover and I'm glad the anime adaptation handled it really well.

Asta not getting depressed is an inspiring scene but the part that really gets me is when he tears up over having been blessed with great friends. The kid who wouldn't cry even when his arms were all busted up was moved to tears because he had something to be thankful for. :(

So this was the moment that changed Gigguk's mind about Asta's character. I can see why. That was really nice to see that Asta realizes now he's been blessed with good friends

I seriously admire Asta's determination. I almost shed a tear when I heard him yell out that he wasn't giving up. That is Asta's thing but I really felt like he was going to give up or fall into despair or something. Honestly, I think that would be one of the saddest sights to see for a character like him...

Anyway, it was a good episode and I liked seeing Asta reflect on his past experiences. I'm curious about Vanessa though. Hmm...

Damn, what a heartfelt episode this was!

I knew Asta would collapse mentally and burst out in tears at some point of the show, but thankfully I was wrong. Almost shed a tear when he came out screaming instead of crying there during the night scene, but I definitely teared up a bit when Asta said “I wasn’t blessed with magic but I sure was blessed with good friends”. God, that was heavy! Looks like the members are off to different parts to find a cure, looking forward to seeing how things pan out from here onwards! Surely, Vanessa is up to something interesting, the Op suggests so too.

I figured that there's more to just broken arms after the fight against Vetto. The cursed arms that can't be healed using conventional methods/magic. Now that does felt pretty forced to the story, but meh...

I like how all other Black Bulls members took the initiative and searched for a cure to Asta's arms, even putting it above things such as food for Charmy and imouto for Gauche.

Never seen Asta cried like that before...

You know he isn’t going to have broken arms for the rest of the series but this episode still has an emotional impact.

I'm guessing Vanessa knows of magic that could break the curse on his arms, I'm guessing she would have to ask I think her name was the Witch Queen...

Yami's impression of Finral was amazing.

It was actually really heartwarming seeing the Black Bulls try so hard to help Asta.

This naked red hair guy came out of nowhere. It feels like we are supposed to know him but I have no idea who he is.

So they just came back from the mission and Asta's arms are still badly injured

Pretty emotional for Asta since the doctor that works under the Wizard King says that it cannot be healed as it is a curse that's pretty depressing since he can't use magic in the first place now he can't even use his only way of combating his swords, although he still doesn't give up that's some dedication right there and a good mindset, The Black Bull members are finding a way on how to fix this curse props to them as well

This was a pretty emotional episode more so for Asta a lot of things happened quite fast, I hope they can focus more on other members too now that Asta can't do much in combat.


(P.C. So Gauche did a test on the book to see if he's a good brother well he got pissed there as well lol, Gordon got sad as well poor Gordon)

Asta may not be blessed with magic but he truly is blessed with some amazing friends who each try their best at searching a cure for the cursed arms.

This was the first episode where things got.... real. I actually felt something, and I may or may not have had a tear starting to form in my right eye. If nothing else, this gives me hope that Black Clover is indeed capable of heavier moments amidst everything else. Asta's unrelenting, fate-defying nature has infected those close to him, and they in turn have become the comrades that he more than deserves.

I like how they utilize Asta's broken arms, when usually you'd probably think it was not that serious of a matter, he'll just get healed later, right? But no, their battle with Vetto still echoes into their lives. What's coming next is labelled as filler, but I see no reason whatsoever to skip them. Although I'm going to guess it's going to come down to Asta stabbing himself with his demon sword lol

This is my favorite episode so far. Even if it was just a little bit, it had the emotion I was looking for. This renews my hope that this anime will indeed get better and better. I can see why it was after this episode where gigguk decided to make his black clover doesn't suck anymore video.

I love everyone from the black bulls so much. The friendship that has developed between everyone is so pure. 
I'm glad that Asta doesn't want to give up his dream and has such great friends who support him in everything.

I have scoured the internet without finding an answer to what Grey would have said at 09:31 however through process of elimination I have been able to narrow it down to a few options:
First of all the M****** is kind of weird a 7 letter word starting with an M is pretty much impossible if it's supposed to be a bad word so for this one I defenitly feel it is more likely a longer word but because more than 6 stars would look weird and excessive they might have called it a day at 6. The 2 most likely option would be Motherf*cker(or a variation on that) or M*st*rb*te(Or a variation on that but honestly too weird and out of context I'd go for Motherf*cka or something.
The second word is luckily a lot easier there's only 4 stars making it far more likely that's the actual length of the word. It ends in xe! which completely narrows it down to one single sensible option: deluxe.
So I'd say she said: Motherf*cker deluxe! (Because he's one big motherf*cker)

Now maybe that was supposed to be obvious and I'm just stupid but yeah maybe some other stupid people will appreciate this comment then.

Why doesn’t he use his sword on his arms to destroy the curse?

Nice to see Asta is not giving up even if his hands are permanently gone. His friends are all trying to find a cure.
