Well, the worst that could’ve happened in Black Clover has happened: Licht, the leader of the Eye of the Midnight Sun, has slain Julius Novachrono, the Wizard King.
The fighting here is fluid and fierce, which is a staple of Black Clover: The animators really do throw everything they have at the battles that count.
Licht brings them down in a Light Magic: Arrows of Judgment attack, and Julius remembers the rampant classism in the Black Clover world where the elites hate both the commoners and the weird Magic Knights.
