Black Clover (ブラッククローバー)

It appeared as though humanity would be destroyed by the demons.

But a single mage saved them all.

He was called the Wizard King, and he became a legend.

We will now begin the finals for the Selection Exam.

I Team: Rill, Nils, and Ruben, come forward!

Young Master Rill,

here's some herbal tea that will clear your mind and help you concentrate.

Yay, thank you!

I'm sure the mistress will be pleased

when she hears about all of your ventures this time around.

What? Mother will?

You think so?

But of course.

Then I definitely need to win.

Please show the world why you were able to become

the youngest Magic Knights Squad captain in history.

That's the Captain of the Aqua Deer for you.

He seems so relaxed despite the big battle coming up.

Well, he crushed the other teams in his last two rounds.

We made it this far without doing much at all because of him.

At this rate, even if our team wins,

there's no guarantee that we'll be selected as Royal Knights.

Who were those two again?

We have to stand out more!

Next, P Team: En, Yuno, and Noelle, come forward.

Dear members of I Team, please go easy on us.

I'm gonna crush all of you!

I'm gonna crush you all into sawdust!

Uh, your inner voice is spilling out.

I'm just so excited, I can't contain myself.

Let's do this, Noelle!

My expression is as hard as rock truffles!

Let's fire things up!

Mushrooms double in flavor when you cook them!

You can even dry them or freeze them!

Let's mushle, mushle to victory! All together now!

Mushle—

Shut up.

Huh?

Honestly... I'm already distracted enough because of Asta.

I mean, I'm only worried because he's part of my squad.

It's not like it bothers me that Mimosa gets to be by his side!

Your face is red! Are you finally getting fired up?!

Shut your mouth.

Ugh, you're both so noisy. You'd better not hold Yuno back!

Bell...

We're going full force in the next round.

Yes! It's finally my turn to shine!

What?

You mean he wasn't at full strength yet?

He's so cool.

That's what draws people to him, and makes them admire him...

I can't wait!

With you as my next opponent,

I might finally be able to paint my ultimate masterpiece!

I'll also be able to see just how much I've grown.

Young Master Rill will be the victor.

It'll be Yuno!

It'll be Master Rill.

Yuno!

The young master.

Yu—

The—

Ruben Nils Rill

I Team

Yuno En Noelle

P Team

So it finally begins.

This will determine the winning team.

Though I, the protagonist, am absent, I hope to see a beautiful match.

I'm going to watch every second of this match so I can further my horizons!

The Victors

Asta!

So you finally woke up.

Where am I?

Langris!

You need to lie down.

Yeah, but—

It's over.

That's right. Our team...

How's Finral?

His wounds are quite deep... He's been taken to the castle's medical tower.

What about Yuno and his team?

They had a quick victory again in stage two, la.

They're about to start the match to decide the winning team.

Yuno...

And now, the final match with I Team...

I can't wait!

We'll stand out this time!

...and P Team!

I'll take care of the Captain of the Aqua Deer.

He's all yours.

Begin!

Whoa! Here he comes!

I'm right here!

He doesn't have to call him over!

Hey! Right over here!

As we suspected, that newcomer is heading for Captain Rill.

I said, I'm right over here!

Now's our chance.

Hey!

Wind Magic: Wind Blade Shower!

Picture Magic: Game of the Gods!

What?!

He's definitely not like anyone I've faced before.

That's our number one newbie! I expect nothing less!

Ah, so they just greeted each other with their magic.

By the looks of it, neither of them is even trying yet.

That's what you call a greeting?! Th-They're on a whole different level!

Look!

Bah-ha?!

There's a battle beginning over there, too.

The enemy team's crystal is right in front of us!

Let's do this!

Ice Magic: Ice Needle!

Sandstone Magic: Rock Fall!

They're both attacking at once?!

Leave the ice magic to me!

Noelle, if you'd take care of the fellow with the sandstone magic.

Fungus Magic: Towering Mister Mushroom.

Heyo.

Bring it!

Ha-ni-wat?!

What?!

Water Creation Magic: Sea Dragon's Lair!

Their defense is strong!

Then we'll just have to strengthen our defense as well, and take them on!

No matter what it takes...

We're going to destroy their crystal...

...and stand out!

They split up, just like we planned.

We're going to protect our crystal, no matter what.

So...

We're counting on you over there!

Wind Magic: Tornado Fang...

Plus Crescent Moon Sickle!

Hup!

Here we go!

Bell!

You got it!

Wind Magic: Swift White Bow!

Nice, nice!

Whoa, there!

Oopsie-daisy...

Here we go!

Hup!

One more time!

Maybe I was wrong about you.

I seem to be missing a little something.

Such versatile and powerful wind magic!

I guess we should expect that from the newbie who has the four-leaf grimoire.

He's powerful!

But he's up against the Captain of the Aqua Deer.

He's blocking everything beautifully.

Your little spirit friend is a cutie. This is starting to get really fun!

But this still isn't enough for me to get the inspiration for my ultimate masterpiece!

What's his problem?

He keeps blocking everything with his weird paintings! Ugh!

Bell, we're going to do the thing.

I planned to use it against Asta in the finals,

but I'm up against a Magic Knights Squad captain.

You're a worthy opponent.

In the battle where he lost his five senses,

his concentration was heightened to its peak.

That along with his experience in controlling mana

and the training he underwent to use Mana Skin to protect himself at all times...

Yuno learned to control the excessive amount of mana within his body.

He then refined that technique

so that he could hold the spirit's power within him, too.

This feeling of becoming one with Yuno...

I just can't get enough of it!

Asta...

I'm about to pull far ahead of you with this one move.

I am always the one who will win against you!

Spirit Assimilation: Spirit Dive.

Wh-What is that overwhelming amount of magic?

So beautiful...
