A lot of badass scenes this episode! Even Asta got excited seeing that fight.

Glad to see Yami, Yuno, and Asta all fighting on the page at once. Nero also adds fuel to encourage Asta from the background scenes. All those battle cries!

BLACK CLOVER SZN, we here! After a very sad past two days and a disappointing Babylon ending I needed something to pick me up and this delivered. They had been saving the budget and time for this ep and it showed. The fight was absolutely amazing. When Haruka Mirai dropped like episode 100 I got goosebumps. Asta's development is second to none.

This is the quality that I wish Pierrot brought to BC consistently. If only BC had a Bones behind it to give it consistent top notch animation or went seasonal, would get so much more love. The story is the best of the ongoing shonen, it just needs better staff behind it.

Secre best girl, we stan.

Very amazing! And thanks that the next episode is not the final episode of the season! I can't imagine a week without Black Clover now!

But one thing I don't like, maybe I'm interpreting too much on symbolism, the scene where Yami's sword cut through Roselei's flower could also mean 'deflower', I just want Yami to stay virgin for me! (Don't care about her at all).

Ayy this is why we need a legendary first op, just listening it in the final moments of a battle makes ur blood boil.

They finally did it, they beat the demon. Asta and Secre's moment was sweet. Yami's Equinox attack was amazing and Asta's final hit too.

Damn, this was just an amazing episode. Loved the heck out of the combo attack and the fact that Yami got a big part of the cake was the ultimate treat for me(+ the first opening). It's overdue, but my man is going to end up in my favs.

5/5

Okay I was ready to talk about how Black Clover been steadily moving forward, and how even though they followed the generic shounen route, it was still amazing. and Secre is the character I've been waiting for..
and i was about to mention how to each OP/ED they had was just phenomenon, especially Black Catcher & New Page ..
Yami though he only appeared at the end of the episode but as usual you can't hate the cool guy with katana.

Yami and Charlotte should get married..

Fantastic episode, 5/5! I would still say Episode 100 was more of a visual feast than this but let's take nothing away from this episode.

Yami, the true MVP of the episode! And leave it to Studio Pierrot at their best to bash it out of the park. Op 1 to hype things up was perfectly placed too, I've seen the whole scene over numerous times and I just love it. Y'know you're in for a treat when they play that Op, lol. Man, the mad-lad didn't even need Captain Charlotte's power to get that over to the devil, holy fudge.

Nero chipping in with some last minute support and, in the process, sharing a bit of the memory to set things up for Asta to capitalize on was incredible! If there's anyone who knows how much he's really worked hard, it's got to be her. Again, Nero best girl yo!

Confirmation for Yuno being the child of Licht too, I wonder if we'll get that next episode. I could see jealous Noelle from the next episode preview, and that too from Nero I'm guessing, so I can't wait to see how that plays out too!

To be honest, I thought the devil would still come back somehow. But I'm glad this huge arc is finally coming to an end by the looks of it. Surprised though I've to say, I was expecting the First Wizard King and Licht to pass away in saving Yuno and Asta and then Asta giving away to his demon to turn the tides or something of the sort but I'm completely fine with this nonetheless.

Please tell me that the first opening starts playing during that scene!


It's certainly above average for the majority of the episode and for a while on par with that of Episode 100.

Yes, that very scene. Yami's moment of rise, that's right. Goes all the way up to the climax of the battle so the timing couldn't have been too bad for anyone, I reckon.

Nice! That's awesome then!
How about the fade in to black and white on a last hit, combined with the opening playing on the background? Does that happen again in the episode?

Seems Haruka Mirai is still Pierrot's favorite opening.

Seems the demon that possess Asta is stronger than the Demon they're currently fighting.

Well I would say now that Asta and Yuno are strong enough for a Magic King.

As for Yami there's a chance a demon is watching over him.

The new intro with the events of how Lemiel killed the Demon as how they really happened was welcomed. I again wonder if the are going to stop showing it or are we going to stick with this version for the rest of the anime.

Episode started normal and I was scared it wasn't going to be as good as the previous one, but when the second half started you could tell the huge quality jump. Thank God.
Through everyone in the battle was excellent, the star of the episode has to be my man Yami, surpassing his limits as always. As soon as Haruka Mirai started playing (I'm thinking you cannot end a hype fight in this anime wihout playing it) I knew things were going to get lit, and boy they were. That they added the flashback with Julius before that only made it even better ;_;

"The Final Blow" is the title of the episode, and what a glorious final blow it was (brilliantly accompanied by Secre's narration, as all the moments she had with Asta were shown before he gives the slash to the heart of the Devil). We just started 2020 and I already have one of my favorite fights of the year.
I have said this many times, but I'm so happy to have followed this series since the beginning. It may not have the best first impression, but the pay-off easily compensated that.

They dropped hints previously, but I think now it is confirmed who is the elf possessing Yuno.

DAMN, masterfull episode without doubt, i am completely crazy right now!

It was truly a epic episode with epic fight, i almost have no word to describe how i feel right now!

Asta and Yuno figth against the demon was really awesome, Yuno managed to evolve and get a wind sword, it was beautifull, also Yuno teasing Asta to encourage him was so damn good!

The epic moment in the last blow when first OP starts at background and Yami send his empowered blow to hit the demon was so epic, i was so much crazy, hyped and excited singing the opening, the openign turned it even better that it already was, and when Nero encouraged Asta to do the finish blow it was just so good, i loved everything of it!

I am so fuckin crazy right now! What an epic episode!

Looking foward next episode!

The episode was amazing!! it doesn't have that very wonderful animation like in episode 100 but definitley surpassed it in terms of the emotion the episode brought. The difference between this episode and ep.100 is that in ep.100, when you heard the OP plays you get hyped up but here it's different, when those Asta flashback (Our boy really have gone so far T_T) played with the OP it hits on my kokoro. :')

So much action this episode. Though was hoping the visuals would be a bit better. Asta and Yuna fending off the tentacles was probably the best part visually, and Yami's slash was pretty cool but looked really lackluster when going through walls of debris.

Damn that was insanely good! Yami, Asta and Yuno all surpassing their limits, for sure! So hype!
I wonder if Licht & Lumiere will be able to stick around. It will be interesting to see Yuno’s reaction to meeting his dad, and vice-versa. Asta’s comical reaction in the preview is likely to be from finding out that Secre is Nero, which should be fun. :)

What a bad ass episode! Yuno and Asta teaming up again and also help from Yami from way further down, due to his excellence in Ki.. Can't ignore Licht and Lumiere either, without their support it may not have been possible! What a ride this has been to be honest!

The battle is over, the Demon is gone! I was honestly expecting better Animation for the final attack, but overall I can't really complain with this episode!

Now I can't wait to get to see some of the reveals/truth delivered to some of the main cast XD

Probably every elf that isnt the Sunrise trio is going to die.
And those 4 survivors will probably die too since they are using forbidden magic to stay alive (Fana said she uses forbidden magic to revive her body parts when they are chopped).

It's ridiculous how much this show has improved since it started. It's started at like a 6 (maybe even as low as a 4) yet has become almost a 9. It's criminal that more people didn't ride this show out and give it the score it deserves on MAL.

What a freak awesome episode !!!!!!!!

that was one heck of an episode, not superb by any means, but it was really something, way up there among those other episodes with great Yuno+Asta combo attacks.

The other best part was Yami Ultimate attack, that was awesome aswell.

The only reason why this episode lost a little shine on Yuno+Asta combo is that there were too many main and side characters that was taking up screen time.

but the combination of Yuno+Asta+Yami was pretty awesome.

Man this episode is great in so many levels, just wish they would have taken more time to focus it properly like in previous episodes where Yuno + Asta were the main.

But for all 3 to evolve and surpass their limits again that was pretty amazing.

I liked how towards the end in there they finally showed that dark demon inside Asta.

I ponder if in future episodes story line Asta might slowly become losing himself as the Demon takes over then it'll become a Yuno vs Asta arc, and that also means Magic vs Anti-magic.

That would be an interesting season to watch if the anime ever develops into that direction.

I dont know why i love this terrible and amazing anime...but I do.

Great action in this episode. The happy ending we all love. Yami is best man. Everyone surpasses their limit. Yuno is a true king of elves. Asta smashes the demon king with his anti magic.

Now i just need Licht to tell Yuno and Asta that they are both part elf and brothers, and the other Wizard King needs to be resurrected (or healed if he isn't completely dead).

Happily ever after.
