Black Clover Just Unleashed the Ultimate Villain’s Greatest Form Yet

The popular series Black Clover is back, and it’s set to shake up the world of anime once more. In the latest issue of Jump Giga, chapters 379 and 380 have been released, finding Asta and Yuno with scant moments for celebration following their recent triumph over Lucius, the most formidable villain in the shonen series thus far. It turns out that this potential “Wizard Emperor” hadn’t fully shown his true power, as it appears they defeated only another one of his replicas in the previous episode. With Lucius now unveiling his ultimate form and aspiring to become the ruler, he has posed a challenge before our heroes which they may struggle to escape from unscathed.

Attention! If you haven’t read chapters 379 and 380 of Black Clover yet, beware as we delve into spoiler territory. The latest transformation of Lucius is truly a spectacle, bearing a striking resemblance to villains from the Naruto series, like the Otsutsuki. As Yuno and Asta grapple with the shocking revelation that they’ve been battling clones all along, Lucius explains the behind-the-scenes work he was doing to achieve this supreme form.

The replicas took a long time to create yet provided me with valuable time. Meanwhile, as the original, I was able to connect all of the Kingdom’s Grimoire Towers using an extraordinarily powerful enchantment. Throughout human history, the world has been dotted with towers that contain Grimoires. What do you think these Grimoires represent? They are divine knowledge bestowed upon us. These texts amplify our innate magical abilities, making our spells even more potent. That’s what a Grimoire does. When a mage passes away, I wonder where their Grimoire ends up. It returns to the tower that imbued them with this wisdom. By tapping into all the collective knowledge and accumulated spells of humanity, I can access and utilize them all! You can take a look at Lucius’ ultimate form below.

Thoughts on Chapter 379:

Lucius’ stunning response delved deeper into the lore of Grimoires, adding a fresh perspective to past events.

Lucius Goes Too Far

Although Lucius now possesses immense power, this hasn’t deterred him from seeking victory against the valiant duo. As Asta tries to figure out a means to vanquish the antagonist, Lucius employs an underhanded tactic by manipulating the memory of Asta’s mother. Overwhelmed by the sight of his deceased mother, which Lucius can summon with his new abilities, Asta is momentarily incapacitated in a stunning turn of events. With Asta struggling, it falls upon Yuno to step up and take charge.

In the ongoing battle against the biggest villain yet, Yuno pours all his strength into the fight. To ensure Yuno can hold his ground, Asta boosts him with his power. As Yuno appears to be our main hope against Lucius, the latest chapter ends with him displaying an extraordinary transformation. The shonen series, Black Clover, hints that this could be the climactic battle leading to its final chapter.
