Black Clover Gets Ready for Judgment Day With the Final Arc's Holy War

By Nick Valdez

Black Clover is now reaching a new phase of the final arc of the series, and the newest chapter is gearing up for a final holy war as Judgment Day is set to begin! The final arc of the series kicked into high gear pretty much immediately as the missing Zogratis sibling, Lucius, had officially made his move on Asta and the Clover Kingdom. Some time has passed since the end of the fight with Lucifero, and Lucius has made his necessary preparations to begin his new grand plan of taking over the world and rewriting it in his new holy image.

Black Clover kicked off the final arc with the first major fight between Asta and Lucius, and although Asta's anti-magic makes him the perfect foe to face down the villain, there is a huge difference in power between the two of them. It becomes immediately clear that Asta won't be enough to take down the foe this time, but thankfully it's also not the final opportunity to do so. Lucius announces to Asta and the Clover Kingdom that "Judgment Day" will begin in seven days time and with it will be the final holy war for humanity as the series heads closer to the end. 

Chapter 335 of Black Clover picks up after Asta takes a fatal looking blow from Lucius, and then the brainwashed Sister Lily completely removes him from the equation by taking him out of the area with her spatial magic. While this certainly looks bad for Asta, it's even worse for the rest of the Clover Kingdom as Lucius delivers his warning. Lucius declares that Judgment Day will begin in seven days and declares it will be "humanity's final holy war" in order to establish is world of complete control and "peace." 

He's quite confident in the outcome of this final war as he reveals that his power has already shown him the future, but he knows that the Clover Kingdom won't go down without a fight. As the chapter ends, Lucius and the brainwashed Sister Lily hole themselves up behind a barrier around the former Clover Kingdom castle and now the series is gearing up for a bigger war than ever seen in the series before.
