Thought this would be a calm after the storm type of episode, but damn, they're using the momentum, I see. Really hyped for more.

I thought the episode was going to end with Damnatio saving Sekke and king Augustus Kira, but they jumped at the trial after that. I'm guessing we are going to have filler content in a few episodes.

Chibi Julius is so moe, I love him. For once I'm glad a character that was practically dead survives in a battle shounen.
I was guessing Toshiyuki Morikawa was going to keep voicing him with a high pitched voice, and I was not wrong.

Noelle's faces through the episode were gold.


Also:
Julius: Be careful Asta, the Parliament may use you as a scapegoat for the elf crisis because your demon-like magic.
Asta: Proceeds to fall into the trap of the Parliament and become a scapegoat after some fancy words from a fishy hooded man.
Sasuga, Bakasta. The scene where he saves Marie in his Black Form looked sick tho. Loved how clean the episode looked in general.


+ 1 to everything, especially so glad to have Julius back <3

And this wouldn't be a battle shounen if "stupid" decisions didn't lead to some badass moment xD

Politics do suck. Poor Marie I won't blame Asta to be in his black form just to protect her. The series is catching up with the manga. I'm hype how things will turn out.

Just as the problem is solve another one pops up Immediately can't the captains Testify against all this or is there influence in the Kingdom not enough? I mean they have the most powerful Royal Families in there side like the Silvas and the Vermillions.

There's a reason why only Asta and Nero are there, and no one who can testify on their behalf is. As Asta said, they've made it loud and clear how they operate. Asta's a scapegoat and nothing more. The trial is just a facade and merely window dressing.

I'm wondering if we'll get anime-canon arc, I just don't want it to stop now. Whatever they make, I'll watch, that's how much I like Black Clover.

Yeah, since one particular part of the manga got skipped over, whenever everyone thought we'd see some incredible training montages and we instead got absolutely nothing, the manga readers have surmised that when the time came, we'd get that in the anime instead. We're still figuring that's going to be the case. Given what we got post time skip, there should be at least 10-15 episodes worth of training montage for various characters.

Guess Black Clover will end with filler after all.
Jeez Pierrot/TV Tokyo just end the anime already...
The show barely has any manga material to adapt minus the LN stuff.

Besides that good episode and the female reactions are pure gold :)

Nobles and royalty, at the start of the series we already saw a clear discrimination towards non-royalty, but these guys at the magic parliament are something else. The guys are such assholes for even trying to convict Marie... Honestly can't wait to see them get their asses handed to them. But seems we might get into filler territory soon.

That cliffhanger again though, Asta sure didn't make things easier for himself!

Almost at the endgame where the anime will catch up to the manga. As usual...

Great to have King Julius back...albeit in chibi form. It's just so funny and amusing to see him the same, but with all the magic gone, he's ready to move into the next phase. Most importantly, without a leading figure, Clover Kingdom would be dead.

Asta will end up dying? Heh that can't be...jokes aside, what his anti-magic power will contribute is still a mystery at this point.

Three Problems, with the Diamond and Spade Kingdoms known, will cease Clover Kingdom...but the most important, is going back to the discrimination between nobility (which has existed since the start of the series).

The Magic Parliament is one to fear, starting with Damnatio, the loyal servant of the current king, and Asta is the common enemy (knowing the devil within that stands trial). And the courthouse sham trial, clearly it was a trap to lay blame on the Devil within Asta in the face of nobles (BTW, this is a much bigger, more focused issue than the first few episodes of Black Clover when Asta and Yuno first received their grimoires).

To bring one of the affected and reincarnated, Marie stands no chance, but Asta knows that this is a battle that must be won not with words, but actions. The cliffhanger is interesting!

Back to form, and onto the next arc!

Love having Julius back, with his starry eyes as he fanboys over interesting magic, lol. His body actually kinda fits his personality now, hahaha. It was interesting to learn about the star on his forehead - I always wondered about that.
Yami cracked me up with his comments to Asta - “Sucks to be you, kid. Namu”, and “A devil? Wow, talk about creepy. Gross. Back off, man.” That whole conversation was gold.
These nobles are total a-holes, and Asta was awesome going to save Marie like that.
The other kingdoms sound very interesting - I want to know more about the Heart & Spade kingdoms!

It's not waving it off.
Supposedly it's a choice between saving the Kingdom (by keeping the Magic Knights in action) or saving Asta by keeping quiet about Devils.
Why not save both? what is the downside to the Nobles and public not knowing about the Devil and just thinking that an extinct race used a Forbidden spell to control Magic Knights and get revenge on humans?
Elves get a nasty note added to their encyclopedia page and a Forbidden spell gets more forbidden?
Hell, I'd be happy if they put Paltry on trial for it and Vangeance on trial as his accomplice -The innocent Elves are already dead again and the Devil is also dead, Vengeance and Paltry are the only main participants 'getting away with it'.

I wasn't really sure where this eps might go as last week I watched the last five in order and stuff got seriously wild and I wondered where they might go from here.

I figured there might be some back patting and everyone feeling good about themselves, chilling relaxing, having some barbecues. But no. The battle has just started!

I loved it because it's realistic. Rich protect rich no matter what. They would kill an innocent child just to prove their point. It's extremely frustrating but it's realistic since even today corruption and power thirst is everywhere.

That still sounds like a rather convenient way to more or less keep the status quo to me, and just blaming it all on the elves is counterproductive to the themes of acceptance this series pushes.

Damn, I really liked this ep. Damnatio's logic is true, even if he's twisted. I think I'll really like this upcoming arc

We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths.
As death comes to embrace you, you will realise what you are.
That's what death is, don't you think?

Wait!? What!? Really?!? This episode is 22 chapters behind the Manga? oh god! never expected that at all! i hope they DO take a break because they (staff) deserve it!
I hope this doesn't go Bleach route and let the future episodes be original content because weekly content of Manga obviously cannot complete with weekly airing of the Anime...DAMN! I HOPE NOT!

I agree that it is not in keeping with the 'Kumbaya' theme of the show but given (IIRC) that -Julius is alive, all the Magic Captains are alive, all the noted Royals/Nobles are alive; in fact I don't think any notable characters, not 'already dead' (like 1st Wiz King, elves) actually died.
So aren't they trying to keep the show's status quo more or less intact anyway?
I'm anime only; so I have no idea what's going to happen but if I were to guess -it will probably go a Naruto-ish/Eren-ish route...which would probably be kinda boring imo.

Aye, true enough, but at least it keeps with the theme. Personally I would have liked to see the Magic Knights that got possessed get accused of making it up as an excuse for a failed coup, but gotta scapegoat Asta instead.

That would have been pretty cool -Golden Dawn could have been 'cleared' and returned to duty but would be outcasts and The Black Bulls would be heroes for saving the kingdom.
Could have been some interesting knock on effects from the role reversal -Alienated rich, powerful and entitled Royals/Nobles could cause a lot of problems; lol maybe even stir up and support a peasant revolt against the other Royals/Nobles -forcing The Knights (especially the 'moral' and commoner knights) and Julius to choose between being Knights and fighting people who are being oppressed.

Julius is such a genius. But what a coincidence, without Neros and the first wizard kings magic tool he would definitely be dead. I'm just glad he's still alive even if he's younger as Asta now haha.

Yami was absolute hilarious this episode. Julius and Asta were mainly his target :D

After all what happened it's true that Clover is very vulnerable for attacks from his neighboring countries. Juluis also knows about Astas devil, even if I didn't undertstood what he meant by Asta will die.

The magic parliament huh? Damnatio is pretty strong, but I don't like him. Asta is way to naive ost of the time. He's the perfect target to blame for everything what happened. I got pretty pissed when these magicians were firing their magic at Marie. And now with Asta in his demon form he has a big problem. Hopefully Julius and Yami can help him.
