This episode is pure sakuga at its finest. Even without Pierrot's help, this could still have been possible.

Everyone's plans and goals realized with the conclusion of the Selection Exam arc.

Finally Zora gets his clarification and conclusion about his dad's comrade, the Wizard King himself.

What an episode.

Rill vs Yuno fight was great!
The BGM was nice and the sakuga was decent (for Pierrot's standards XD).
Yuno really went all out since he's facing a strong opponent.
Sadly the fight concluded without seeing who's the better between the two.

Danm, this episode was one of the best!

Bell and Walter's discussion about who woudl win was so funny!

Yuno vs Rill truly had an incredible animation, they are both too powerful, and Yuno's spirit form was so damn cool, and look so powerfull, they had quite an intense fight!

Didn't expect to see Bell's reaction about becoming one with Yuno xD

Noelle blocking both magic with her dragon lair was so awesome!

julios and Zora moment at the end was wonderfull, so Julios was the one that Zara refered about time magic to Zora, really interesting, hope zora decitde to be a magic knighs and list in Black Bulls!

I didn't think pierrot could get to God tier animation -literal God with Rill's (?) Magic, shame that they're going to drop it back next week... we all know it.
Other than that, a nice little inference to Asta's demon crept its way in

What a fantastic episode! wow
Especially that ending! It was kinda obvious that Yuno would win but still, what a battle!
The ending scene was one of the best, gotta love the real king! Also, i really hope that Zora will join the BB.

What an incredible episode, so intense and glad the Captain didn't lose in terms of raw power because it felt too early imo. The end with the Wizard King acknowledging Zora's father was beautiful as well.

I'm also happy to see I misunderstood about the way Royal Knights will be selected: it's not the winning team but those who've been the most skilled on the battlefield so we'll have great fights ahead with the terrorist organization.

I don't know how clsoe to the manga they are but I guess I won't be surprised if tons of fillers show up in the next few weeks ^^

This last couple minutes of this episode animated the first couple pages of chapter 133 and the manga just released chapter 206 this week, but my guess is they are padding the anime out more so the current arc in the manga can finish. Next week looks to be filler, but I wouldn't be surprised if they used the last 5 or 6 minutes to summarize the rest of 133. I kinda like that despite Black Clover's huge episode count it has little filler or recap episodes.

I have a feeling they will end the anime after the next arc though and I kinda hope they do cause huge filler arcs kill anime if they are not done properly.

Awesome episode. The fight between Yuno and Rill was just crazy. Especially seeing Yunos new technique was almost like Asta in devil form. But even that Yuno won I guess Rill is stronger. You could see Yuno was going all out and Rill had absolute no problem to resist.

Poor Asta. I can imagine how he must feel. At least he bounced back and I suspect he will train even more and harder as before.

Let me say this... DAMN. Probably one of the best episodes! The animation is so smooth, also compared to first time Asta showed his demon form, this was on a different level, Id say the animators improved. Damn, i got chills the entire episode, the last scene was amazing too, that concluded the deal with Zora and I hope we get to so more of him in the future. Though I think he’s in Purple Orcas team?? I hope he joins Black Bulls though! Holy shit 10/10

And so the finals are finally here. Still Asta must feel terrible that his team didn't make it. As expected the match is a high level one indeed. Wow Yuno's fairy combo was quite impressive both visually and in combat ability. The contest between the two sure ended with quite the unexpected result. Compared to the wizard king the countries king is acting like a kid lol. Noelle's attempts to deny her own feelings for Asta is as amusing as ever.

I find the fact that Yuno won against a captain after not even a year of being a knight so stupid even if technically it’s the captain who actually break the crystal and not Yuno.
Another things that I find stupid is the fact that no so long ago Asta explain to the nobles how the person that aren’t noble have to work so hard to be able protect the people in contrary of the noble who are born with a lot of power. But Yuno is exactly like the nobles, he is born with a lot of power, he received a book with a four leaf clover whitout especially deserving it as far as I know but because he was some kind of chosen one and after that a spirit chose him because of the power he receive without doing much. So yeah I dont’ Really get the logic behind that.

what yuno is? elabarate



but i have a theory that asta and yuno are both half elves, elves could weild this swords and most have ferry high magic so what asta has mite be a elven disabbility that he has no magic cause elves had high magic this disabbility was more common among them then with humans

Damn....this is the first time ( for me at least ) that I was VERY impressed by the animation team for this show.

It took them 84 episodes, but maybe Studio Pierrot has finally sorted out their scheduling/employment management for this anime. Hopefully more fights are of this caliber.

Great fucking episode

It hurts me to see Asta so down...but he'll be ok. It must have gone down this way for a reason. It would've been awesome to see him fight Yuno but I guess that's a fight for later episode.

Also, I really liked the part at the end with Zora. I like Julius even more because of it. The other king could learn a few things from him... Anyway, I just hope that we'll see Zora again. He's too cool to just never see him again!

Overall, I really like this episode.

i really like this episode, i hope zora is not one arc character. Also i wonder if studio pierrot stop making long running anime maybe their animation will be on the same level with studio bones.
Monster of the week trope is a sign inability of the author to write a good plot so they introduce random ass villain to distract viewer with action.

My English is not good.

I suddenly want to watch Bleach last arc animated after watching this episode. I'm surprised no studio want to pick it up yet when the manga already ended for quite awhile now. Makes me wonder if the last arc was really that bad.

well i know its a shounen and its a standard for this genre and all, but the way the author makes his mc the butt end of all the jokes and abuse even though he shows him to be the hardest worker ever, and makes his rival the all yeesus get all the luck and all the ladies and powers, and that without breaking a single sweat, i mean its kind bugging me and i watched tons of shounens, i dont know if im in a bad mood or what but i guess its because asta gets shit on all the time by everyone from his friends to his rivals to his enemies(even when they joking hes still the butt end of the joke getting beaten and shit), hes practically the equivallent of bwahaha if he didnt have those moments of mcness , and even then he only gets those 30 seconds to shine before yami or noelle or someone hits him to the ground....

still technically speaking, its the best looking episode of the series, not much inpact though since the whole tournement is kind not that important and even then they made the ending even more meaningless , last episode with actual plot point of is he a spy and actual emotional heft since a nakama was hurt would have benefited more of this animation

Holy shit! I could kiss Pierrot after this episode. Can't believe how this episode was handled from start to finish. The sakuga in this one was delicious!

This tournament arc as a whole was handled quite well, and the sweet additions of new ost really added to the experience. Loved it!

Holy this was a great ep! Wasn't looking forward too much to the fight between Rill and Yuno but its intensity is enough to keep me excited. An amazing final battle to end this entire selection. They're both special, one being the wielder of immense picture magic and one being the user of a 4 clover griamore and a chosen one by the wind spirit. They both held up their reputation as an immensely powerful individual well. Yuno has grown so much and so far, it's only right for someone like Asta to be pained and depressed for his lacking ability, but Asta being Asta, he ain't giving up ever.

I honestly didn't expect too much from this fight but damn this was a great fight.

I appreciate that Yuno only won due to the rules instead of outright defeating him by knocking him out.

I'm assuming that Zora is actually a black bull because it's definitely like Yami to recruit a troublemaker like him.

Asta needs to rest a bit if he wants to recover at least with his outstanding performance back there on the battlefield

Damn the animations are back at it again like the one from the past episodes in the forest but this time It's Rill and Yuno who's fighting each other out this really is the battle that stands out, Yuno unleashed a new form as well not only Asta has a new form he's not slacking behind good to see that

And they are the victors of this tournament congrats to them that fight was unbelievably insane although I expected it to be finals I guess they disregarded that good fight to end the arc right there, And Zora's father Zara has been admired by Julius himself by his actions and Zora as well I hope to see him in the Royal Knights.
