Black Clover Fans Are Still Blown Away by Its Latest Episode

Black Clover has found its stride. The hugely popular anime stands as one of the biggest in Japan, and it fanbase overseas is thriving. Its charismatic leads and storylines have kept fans hooked even in its valleys. They know the peaks are worth it, and the most recent episode of Black Clover proved as much to fans.

Over on social media, you may have seen fans talking about Black Clover's new release. The anime put out episode 118 earlier this week, and the episode has yet to quiet down. In fact, fans are calling out the episode for its stellar pacing, and many have ranked it amongst Black Clover's best yet.

As you can see in the slides below, Black Clover certainly left an impression on fans. For those caught up, you will know the epic episode began one of the series' best fights. The anime has been on-point with the Reincarnation arc, and the week saw a revenge plot head into action. The Elves learned the first Wizard King was not behind their betrayal, but it was instead a twisted devil of sorts. Now, that First King is slated to fight the devil for their transgression, and fans learned the demon was none other than a mutated Licht.

Of course, the twist caught everyone by surprise, and it turns out the fight was done just right. Episode 119 still has to bring out the battle's climax, but fans are confident Black Clover will not let them down with this long-awaited feud.

Yuki Tabata created Black Clover in 2015. The popular series follows two boys named Asta and Yuno who are growing up in a world where magic is everything. Asta, unfortunately, seems to have been born without magical powers while Yuno is a young prodigy whose magical powers rival that of the strongest magic users in the Clover Kingdom, the Magic Knights. The two young boys now strive to become the strongest wizard in the Clover Kingdom, The Wizard King.
