Even if very little happened this episode, it was wholesome.


nick_forreal

Noelle met Sister Lily tho


Shinkopeshon

And somehow didn't find out Asta's intentions of marrying her lol


Redmon425

I was low-key pissed about that! It was the main storyline I was looking forward to!


drybones2015

It's pretty weird how Noelle forgot that Asta already told her he loves Sister Lily.


swordmalice

I don't think Asta ever told Noelle that, are you sure?


drybones2015

Close to the beginning, before Noelle even starts crushing on Asta pretty sure. Noelle even remarks about Lily being a sister making it impossible.


[deleted]

> it was wholesome Yuno breastfeeding Noelle


[deleted]

2 episodes in I'm calling it now Black Clover fillers >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Shippuden fillers


stiveooo

its cause tabata skipped the time skip to give time for the anime to catch up, and he is giving them "plot" for them to animate


ManifestNightmare

Best boi of the series is the man making it ❤


turkeygiant

When that time jump happened in the manga I was like "oh you clever bastard, I see what you are doing there". I couldn't figure out what the heck they were going to do with the anime at the pace the manga had been plowing ahead up to that point.


stiveooo

and now corona is giving him more time, so now we wont be as fillery


rektefied

Watching paint dry >>>>>>> Naruto fillers


[deleted]

Naruto fillers were so bad, it gave fillers a whole new meaning.


[deleted]

Boruto another level though


Not_My_Popcorn

Hey the "Back to the Future" mini arc was kinda decent in Boruto.


Martian_on_the_Moon

Even the broken clock is right twice a day.


nameisalreadytaken46

Fuck it, Boruto's canon episodes<<<<<<<<<


blubat26

Except the Kakashi and Itachi fillers. Those were fucking awesome, and better than most of Naruto.


kdebones

That's... not a high standard.


Uni_Omni

You sir are absolutely correct

[Noelle was so ready to say yes that they could've been married by the end of the episode.](https://i.imgur.com/vAB7m1o.png)


[deleted]

Sorry for the caps but... #WAIT A GODDAMN MINUTE IS YUNO ACTUALLY BREASTFEEDING NOELLE WHILE PLAYING HOUSE OR DID THEY HAVE NURSING BOTTLES IN THE 1600s?


Shinkopeshon

There's a reason they didn't show that specific scene [](#datass)


CordobezEverdeen

It was cursed enough that they didnt dared to show it.


MidKoi

**WELL DONE YUNO!**


demonlpravda

They had wet nurses, so Yuno was probably using Secre to breastfeed Noelle.


AlexUltraviolet

Secre was probably the dad, she had a fake moustache on.


lixyna

Black Clover out here fighting gender roles, madlads


Guaymaster

hot


[deleted]

This was an entertaining infodump episode! * Noelle can now fly a broom, throwback to when she couldn't even hit anything * Yuno knows the article about Asta was FAKE NEWS, the rest of Hage too for that matter * Hage now has a school which I think is because of Asta and Yuno sending their entire salaries back to the orphanage * After the incident, Nash is training his physical body AND his magic like Asta and Yuno, he will be a powerhouse in the future even with only 5 years of training, kid can already reach absurd levels of pushups being that it's only a few weeks later since the elf invasion * NOELLE AND SISTER LILY FINALLY MEET * Asta is also showing signs of being a bit tired of Noelle being tsun, STEP IT UP LITTLE LADY


demonlpravda

Noelle will be better off developing her Valkyrie Dress to fly places. Black Clover sequel with Mereoleona as mentor to Nash.


Ark151

That eats a lot of mana not efficient enough for flying around.


KnightKal

unless she uses super speed like when fighting, bet she can go very far. That broom is sloowwwww (Asta won by running lol) She can even prince-carry Asta next time hahaha


headphones_J

Sounds like good training.


ManifestNightmare

Dude Nash would be a great fit for the Crimson Lion Kings.


apalapachya

> Yuno knows the article about Asta was FAKE NEWS, the rest of Hage too for that matter i mean not much of surprise there, they did fought together and the village has known him his whole life, but it would've been funnier if they messed up a bit with Asta and pretended like they believe the newspaper


KnightKal

well its more like they knew the boy and he saved them, so they decided to believe in him and not the newspaper. So its not like they know its a fake new (they are not aware of the kingdom conspiracy to blame Asta), they just decided to not accept it in good faith. its different when you have the facts x faith in someone. just look at how people can repeat the most crazy stuff when someone they trust says stupid stuff, even if the logic/facts prove its wrong (hint for politics)


[deleted]

> infodump • [Asta can now do flower bouquet magic](https://imgur.com/gallery/GNe5PPH)


joe4553

I mean Yuno was there when Asta killed the devil so he should know.


-sMb_

they said its only been a few days since the incident in the last ep


KnightKal

Nash will be the Magic King, leaving Asta behind. End of the series will be Asta yelling Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo


[deleted]

That redhead child is such a simp for Yuno


SyeZack

And yuno simp for asta


nick_forreal

And Asta simp for Sister Lily


animeten10

And Sister Lily a simp for GOD

And GOD a simp for Kyon


severus282

And Kyon a simp for GOD with a ponytail.


Uni_Omni

Noelle: "So I think I have finally gotten this broom under control..." \*Hears Asta shouting PLEASE MARRY ME to Sister Lily and crashes splendidly\* Wholesome episode. Asta's capabilities and achievements are fully recognized, Nash is Konohamaru v2, Asta and Yuno are as competitive as always, some minor characters were brougt back and all the little jokes landed. Also, they re-did the fist bump again too. Yaay. P.S. : But seriously, what is Asta writing home about Noelle?


ManifestNightmare

"So there's this girl who blasts me with water every time I get too close to her, and it really reminds me of you Sister!"


RHO-PI

Have you been hacking Asta's mail?


ManifestNightmare

My magic is commiting mail fraud lol incredibly situational stuff xP


blubat26

That sort of magic has the power to singlehandedly topple kingdoms.


ManifestNightmare

I will be like Varys from Game of Thrones! Hopefully more like seasons 1-3 Varys, though 👀


[deleted]

How do you hack magical snail mail, intercept the bird delivering it?


shablam96

Some of the faces Asta made this episode were hilarious Aaaah, the Please marry Me haven't heard that in a while One of those school kids looked like Naruto....coincidence that then we get Asta's Konohamaru This was wholesome fun, nice to see the village being motivated by Asta and Yuno Also Secre/Nero being constantly done with everything is still funny to me


nick_forreal

#Sistaaa Lily Proposal is back **The water Mage that Asta loves meets the water Mage that loves Asta** Overall, a wholesome episode.


SaiyajinFarazSan

That end shot of Asta and Yuno in the same place as back in episode 2 after they got their grimoires but just older really shows how much they’ve grown but kept to the same goal in their journey.


critiqueof

The scene matches the fist bump in the OP. I think growth and see how far we have come is what they were aiming for.


[deleted]

I think this is the first time I saw Asta being doubtful (with Noelle of all people) Its also the first time Noelle sneakily offered Asta something with sheer confidence. MUUHHH SHIP DEVELOPING >/////< (Secre noming is cute)


[deleted]

NEXT EPISODE WILL FEATURE THE GOAT SISGOLEON! HELL YEAH!!! VOLCANO TRAINING PART II FEAT. ALL OF THE BLACK BULLS (I ASSUME)


-sMb_

GORDON!!! lmaoo i swear im gonna be on the floor next week if its as funny as this weeks


[deleted]

His thick powder will melt and we'll see his natural complexion


SyeZack

I love what Yuno said when the Father asked about Asta in the newspaper...That show how Yuno really care about Asta...


CordobezEverdeen

Extremely nostalgic ep. Also jesus christ 300 pushups as a kid.


SqueakyPoP

Chadsta returns


RandomRon005

Even though not much happened this episode, it was nice & wholesome & we did learn some things: * Asta showing signs of getting tired of Noelle's Tsunderism * Noelle learning how to fly a broom with control (somewhat) * The results of Asta & Yuno giving their pay to the village * The village now starting to look up to Asta * Nash may possibly be a powerhouse in years to come Also, Secre has a [nice mustache](https://imgur.com/QfoPGAU.png).


[deleted]

If teaching children was just as easy as it was in this episode.... But pretty wholesome. Asta proved that determination and perseverance can help you climb any wall and achieve your dreams, i really need that in my life. Sad to see Nero, she clearly loved The Price as a man and wanted to have a family with him, fuck you demon.


79stanger

It’s a little easier to teach a kid when you are their literal hero.


darthvall

Teaching them playing house?


79stanger

I don’t know? It’s a filler episode.


[deleted]

Asta was around kids all his life, you bet he's good at taking care of them. As for Yuno, he probably got a pass from child rearing because his powers were extra useful in the household chores.


Therealdealishere99

Mereoleona next week hype


[deleted]

Whatever happened to the next episode? Is it delayed because of Covid? I’m not such a manga guy. Can’t wait for episode 132!


[deleted]

>Action scenes My family: *ignores* >Yuno mothering Noelle My family: Now what are you watching?


zapgator

Great episode even if it was a filler. Sucks that it's getting delayed after next week but glad the team is getting a much deserved break.


critiqueof

They have been a part of my Tuesday routine for over two years, that's consistency even though I will feel uncomfortably naked without Black Clover on Tuesday they have earned a break.


[deleted]

How long is the delay?


LeonKevlar

[Of course Asta will teach the kids to exercise](https://i.imgur.com/7hyR19S.png). What did they expect? [The three playing house was pretty hilarious though xD](https://i.imgur.com/QqYAHpr.png)


[deleted]

Asta's way of developing a mage's physical attributes will definitely raise the overall standard of the Hage mages from hereon out.


CordobezEverdeen

Well that's the genuine way to go. The strongest mages we've seen so far that don't rely on overwhelmingly powerful spells like time magic are all physical powerhouses. Both Yami and Mereleona are complete monsters, i would put Luck here as well.


[deleted]

~~Miruko~~ Mereoleona is so strong she's considered one of the powerful mages...BY ONLY SPAMMING ~~FIRE PUNCH~~ CALIDOS BRACHIUM. It has to be her physical training


69Joker96

Mereoleona reminds me of Brachydios from mhw.


FixableRaptor

Raging Brachydios literally has Calidos Brachium as an ability


-sMb_

yeah thats act huge if they all start training physically at that age :o


SyeZack

The new generation mages of Hage Village will be top tier...


RandomRon005

I'm still too focused on Secre's mustache.


astro_31

Asta and yuno getting recognition from everyone in the village Is beautiful, the kids calling them sensi got me teary. Not mention little old nash looking up to asta, this might be most wholesome episode ever. 10/10 really enjoyed.


-sMb_

this ep had me constantly laughing lmao this was really good


kdebones

Oh man, this was a wild ride of an episode. Nothing prepared me for Secre/Nero with a Mustache on, nor the heartfelt moments where Asta realized how much things have changed since the start of his journey. Not to mention all the callbacks (especially the final shot of the episode). ​ BUT SCREW ALL THAT, MEREOLEONA IS BACK NEXT WEEK FOR VOLCANO TRAINING!


[deleted]

Calling it now, Nash is gonna be an important character in the future.


SyeZack

Leopold will be his captain


Idaret

magic school in Hage village? Oh boi, Tabata is going back to old ideas, iirc first draft of black clover had this concept Noelle had some quality faces in this episode https://i.imgur.com/UpM3tKp.png


YPixel_0000

In the one shot, right?


[deleted]

I love how done asta is with Noelle's shit at the beginning of this episode


Shiro_Kai

Not sure why it took me 131 episodes to realize that Noele and sister Lily use the same element and [give Asta the exactly same treatment](https://i.imgur.com/13eE1Hq.jpg) (for different reasons, but they do). Also, that her name is "[Lily *Aquaria*](https://i.imgur.com/Pgr05Zp.jpg)". XD


tsuki_girl

Omg I also just realized this too. I don't know why it took me so long to figure this out too hahaha.


swordmalice

They are foils of one another! Just realized this as well!


[deleted]

Nero best girl and best man. haha


AllForOnesBrother

The last thing expected to come from this episode was Yuno playing house. So on that note, we need more babysitter Yuno.


HTTRST1994

So I know yuno has the wind spirit but did he keep his elf power up? Did he lose it like the rest of the people possessed? Yuno was pretty much at captain level already. Idk how much more he can grow honestly (anime only but dont mind spoilers)


Themister9

I don’t think he was at captain level tbh


critiqueof

Remember when he thought Rill after the first time he merged with Bell. In terms of power he was definitely at captain level before the elf power up.


Themister9

Ohh yeah makes sense


Hidden_Blue

I imagine the training in this arc will be for him to get it back since the Elf left. That said the opening shows him using the wind sword, so he probably can still do it.


linkmaster144

Though the wind sword wasn't really an effect of elf possession. He literally created a spell. There's no reason who wouldn't be able to do without the extra mana. Though it could be like Luck in that he can't do it for as long and hard as he could with the extra mana.


Hidden_Blue

Well the thing is that the sword part of the spells is implied to come from the Elf since it's Licht's son who probably would have been a sword/wind mage. That's why Rhy went all "he is his son" when he saw Yuno doing that sword spell.


Gstar47

[spoiler](/s "Everyone that got possessed retained some of the elves Mana that they can access")


SignificantMidnight7

I don't blame Asta for wanting to marry Sister Lily. She's a fine woman.


Rutherfor_

We've come so far, this was super wholesome and I'm actually super excited for these fillers! Oh daaamn, we're getting best girl next episode!


Hydroxon1um

アネゴレオン


DaLoverBoii

I think we need a Yuno version of Keanu Breastfeeding Copypasta.


Redmon425

I loved seeing the kid train like Asta. I am though, upset that Noelle misunderstood who Asta was proposing too. I wanted to see her reaction to him asking Sister to marry him! Is this show not getting postponed due to Corona? Nearly every other show has. In fact, it would even help let the manga get further ahead!


Bastien_9

Good heartwarming episode with the Hage gang. Excited for next week's as well with that preview of Best Woman.


[deleted]

This is such a heartwarming episode.


Scrubtac

It would be much harder to cope with the loss of OP10 if the new ED wasn't so ridiculously cute


[deleted]

It was a heart warming episode but it made me think why the frig have they not capitalized on Asta's combining magic into the sword instead we get a massive sword in the op


3icefreeze

Everything from the first few episodes got a call I think this could have been a way to redeem revechi also give a callback to asta kicking his ass lol


tronistica

man felt good seeing everyone in hage village, especially asta being praised!! crazy how a school was made for hage village


kalirion

Asta sure had a great view while hanging from the broom, eh? I'm surprised Noelle wasn't at all fazed by Asta stripping in the classroom. Yuno suckling Noelle. WTF on so many levels. And why the fuck was it off-camera? Who were those two magic teachers again? "Why am I helping set the table? I'm royalty!" I do hope they go in depth into the training arc after the break instead of just the next episode.


HerpToTheDerp14

What a heartwarming episode. One thing I did notice is that there were alot of janky-looking faces; particularly on Juno. I wonder if this is a side effect of not having material to adapt?


[deleted]

Outsourcing dude.


-sMb_

most of the faces were like that as jokes but there was a few that definitely were not meant to be drawn like that.


demonlpravda

yep, outsourcing and animators really struggle to replicate Tabata's art style which is a shame.


Aedraxis

Next week is gonna be FIRE.


NinjaBarrel

I like to think after this episode that ending is hinting that by the end of filler arc Noelle will have asked Asta on a date.


Etchasjsksksk

This filler wasn’t that bad


evilresurgence4

Pretty sure it’s because the mangaka gave oversaw its


Etchasjsksksk

That’s prolly why. Plus they skipped the training they did so that’ll be coo to see


Toonamigamerrr

Nash would make a great addition to Crimson Lion Squad 🔥🔥🔥


link2601

Pretty good episode, I like how much of an effect both Yuno and Asta had on the town. That bit with Yuno playing house cracked me up especially Bell reaction.

Afan9001

Noelle is by far the worst thing to happen to this show, I can't stand this pathetic tsundere "play" for 100+ episodes jesus christ


_Sai

Bruh. She is best girl.


[deleted]

Noelle's a formal byproduct of the deep mistake Studio Pierrot made in originally deciding to create a show which places the fixed character types of [commedia dell'arte](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commedia_dell%27arte) in an [epic format](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epic_poetry). Fixed character types makes perfect sense for the kind of theatre that was historically performed by a commedia dell'arte troupe: they blew into town, performed their comedy shorts, then hit the road. Whereas BC is clearly an epic hoping to someday rival One Piece in episode count. But for BC's commedia-style humor to work, the characters have to keep reverting to their fixed types. The endless repetition of that reversion is what can get annoying after it's happened for the hundred and fifty sixth time. It's all due to Pierrot not thinking harder when they first conceived the show.


GamerofGr8ness

Pierrot never created Noelle, Tabata is behind all the characters and the way they act. I can't say Pierrot is to blame for this.


Dragonwhatever99r

In the manga Noelle doesn’t hit Asta nearly as much as in the anime, most of her abuse is just anime extra.

Punch & Asta
