Waited a bit too long, but Black
Clover seems to have a solid status in WSJ, so I’ll be adding it to the lineup.
Eventually, Fairy Tail, Magi and Bleach will end, so I need something ongoing
to add and there’re a lot of potential and awesome events this week for the
premiere of it in the blog
One Piece is on break this week
Black Clover 54
We start a new arc after meeting a
significant antagonist, right under the leader of the organization that led an
attack on the Clover Kingdom, calling itself the Eye of the Midnight Sun.
Asta, our protagonist, is asked by
the Wizard King’s assistant to use his sword, which has antimagic properties,
gifted to him by his rare black 5 clover grimoire, to help them investigate
more into the whereabouts and plans of the Eye of the Midnight Sun.
They have 2 prisoners in custody,
Asta using his sword on them and Marx, the Wizard King Julius’ assistant,
starts to interrogate them after they’ve broken seals on them.\
Meanwhile, most of the Magic Knight
Captains, serving right under the Wizard King, are waiting to start their
meeting, since the Golden Dawn’s captain, William Vangeance, hasn’t arrived.
Yami, leader of the Black Bulls and
Asta’s superior, is bickering with various other captains before Vangeance
arrives, apparently always very busy, since he wasn’t present when Asta’s
rival, Yuno, was at a ceremony to be promoted in rank or when the kingdom was
under attack.
Marx contacts the group, telling
them to meet the Wizard King at another location.
As the Magic Knights arrive, they
ask what they found out, the major revelation being that one of the Magic
Knight Captains conspired with the Eye of the Midnight Sun, the chapter
concluding as this revelation will be postponed until next week
Boku no Hero Academia 83
We see everyone regrouping after the
Villain attack, Uraraka and Asui finally meeting up with Deku’s group, All
Might’s disciple still in anguish at the utter defeat they suffered.
By Vlad’s reports, about 15 of the
students were injured, ambulances arriving about 15 minutes afterwards. Ragdoll
is missing (some speculating she may have been taken by the Noumu, since what
looks like her helmet was in one of its hands last chapter), Bobtail in
critical condition after the head wound. The Villains only had 3 defeats, all
of them apprehended while the rest got away.
The next day, Yuuei’s administration
is discussing how this development truly has shown them how soft they’ve become
with the peace All Might created, not even considering that Villains could
still be organizing under their noses.
Bakugou acting wild as he did in the
Sports Festival may have been the catalyst to the Villains regarding him as a
suitable target, his capture showing that Yuuei is taking them too lightly.
Present Mic brings up the legitimate
concern they’ve had for a while: that there’s a traitor among the Yuuei faculty,
possibly even a student. The others say they need to be cautious in making such
accusations, Nedzu agreeing that they need to investigate such things.
All Might gets a call, leaving the
meeting to talk to Tsukauchi, the lead investigator in the Villain cases. He
says that they may have found the Villains’ hideout, Dabi’s description
matching someone that one of his subordinates discovered through inquiries in
the area.
The #1 Hero responds that he’s not
going to take this lying down, that he’s out for revenge, to payback the
Villains for what they did to his students.
Meanwhile, Deku spent about 2 days
recovering, the rest of the class, minus some students still recovering, enters
his room as he awakens.
Deku curses himself for not being
able to save Bakugou, Kirishima saying that they’ll save him, since he and
Todoroki overheard a conversation between Yaoyorozu and All Might. The Creation
Hero says she put a transmitter into the Noumu with Awase’s help, giving All
Might the tracker device. They’re hoping to get another one and go after them
as well.
Iida says they should leave this to
the professionals, but Kirishima says he wants to do something, since he felt
so useless before. He can’t call himself a Hero if he doesn’t act to save his
friend.
The others are mixed in their
opinions, Kirishima telling Deku he still has a chance to help Bakugou as the
chapter ends on this decision point.
Seven Deadly Sins 167
Diane thanks King, saying she saved
him because he was willing to protect her even though she doesn’t believe they
have any prior relationship.
The giantess summons her two golems,
Fillet and Sirloin, but Dolor’s clone easily smashes both of them. She wonders
why they’re so much more powerful, King saying that the Ten Commandments have
immense magical strength, but that her own golems are weakened because they’re
just imaginary friends she made when she was alone in the world.
In order for her golems to be the
strongest they can, she has to have a solid belief and form in mind for who
they take the shape of.
Diane tries again, making 3 golems,
one resembling Matrona, another Meliodas and the last Elizabeth (a tiny Hawk
golem is there as well).
King thinks it makes sense, since
Meliodas is special to Diane, but we see that she made a 4th that took King’s
form.
He’s so touched that he’s crying,
Diane a bit confused at that.
Each golem shows some strength, but
Dolor defeats each of them after they make their attacks, slowly wearing it
down.
With only King’s golem left, he
thinks they can’t win, but the Harlequin copy smashes through Dolor’s clone
with one strike, the match concluded with that.
King wonders why Diane made him so
strong, still not confident in his own strength. But Diane responds that she
really sees great power in her friend, the chapter ending on their victory.
World Trigger 136
HQ is staying cautious, both because
they think Galopoula could be doing a covert operation and because the Planet
Nation is still in orbit near Earth for a month. They’re a bit ambiguous on
whether they can defend against such an attack again, but they also have Jin’s
Side Effect to thank
The major concern is whether they’ll
attack the city, but they think they can prepare with Jin’s precognition.
Meanwhile, we see that Yoneya is
still affected by Koskero’s Trigger, the group bringing it back to HQ for
analysis. Arashiyama compliments the Attackers for keeping the Neighbors occupied
outside HQ, especially Yomi and the Idras Trion soldiers he controlled.
Ninomiya asks Miwa why he cooperated
with Jin when he’s known to hate Tamakoma, but Miwa simply says they decided it
was the best course of action. We see other Border agents pushing Yoneya
around, who’s sliding on his feet as they grab his spear and spin around or the
like, Kako wanting to do similar things with Miwa, which he rejects.
Everyone else is throwing around
congratulations for their hard work, especially Nasu and Kumagai taking out one
of the invaders.
Meanwhile, back on the Galopoula
ship, Reghindetz is getting torn into for his actions. He insists he was trying
to bluff them, but Wen responds that they predicted his actions too easily.
Koskero says it was his fault for giving Reghi control over the Trion soldiers.
The others think there must be some
reason besides Hyuse, an Aftokrator prisoner, that they were able to discern
their tactics so easily.
Yomi reports to Gatlin on
Vassilissa, the Black Trigger having taken double damage in the battle,
Tachikawa’s initial strike followed up by Konami with precision in the same
place, making Gatlin impressed at their skill. They still have the mission to
work on, but they have time, so they’ll wait until they’ve recovered to try
again.
We shift to the Rank Wars, Sakurako
of Ebina squad commentating alongside Tokieda from Arashiyama Squad and Izumi
from Tachikawa Squad. She’s especially giddy because her squad finally made it
into the middle B Rank.
Besides Tamakoma-2, the rookies in
the B Ranks, Katori and Kakizaki squad are somewhat new in their relative rank,
since Katori was pushed down by Mikumo Squad’s rise and then lost to Nasu squad
in the round where Mikumo Squad went down a few ranks as well. Katori is well
known as a squad that maintained a position in the upper B ranks for 2 seasons.
Kakizaki fell down due to losing to
Arafune Squad in the 3rd round, but moved back up in the 4th, persisting and
trying to get past people’s stereotype of them being too cautious. Kakizaki is
a former member of Arashiyama squad, who Tokieda respects as his senior.
Tamakoma-2 is reiterated as being a
rookie squad that had a rise in rank for a while, but then tasted defeat in the
4th round, showing how tough the wall to the upper B ranks is to climb.
The chapter ends as the 5th B Rank
wars are about to start, Jin, Hyuse and Yotaro arriving just in time to watch
them.
Magi 298
Sharrkan wishes to welcome his
student back with a feast, Alibaba distracted by the more revealing clothes of
the people, some women even topless. The king of Heliohapt explains that it’s
tradition for the rulers of their country to wear snakes, which is why he has
them around him now.
But he’s more confused as to why Sharrkan
returned home, noting how the member of Sinbad’s Household was fiercely loyal
to him. Sharrkan responds that he always intended to return back, but Sinbad’s
actions to create a kind of world peace pushed things forward. He emphasizes
that he’s still grateful to Sinbad nonetheless.
Alibaba asks Sharrkan if he thinks
Sinbad is any different, his vassal noting that he’s more impressive to him
than before, having achieved his goal of a peaceful world in a real way.
It makes sense that Sinbad’s closest
allies. who’ve been with him longer, would regard him as being the same, but
Sharrkan does note that he disagrees with Sinbad in regards to his disregard to
nations as having value to people, since Heliohapt is Sharrkan’s home in spite
of the political conflict it’s had in the past
The only thing he feels that he’s
lacking is being able to understand Sinbad’s vision, but he still wants to
fulfill his duties as king to the best of his abilities. Sharrkan agrees to let
Alibaba make a teleportation circle and establish trade with Heliohapt and the
Kou Empire, since it’s very isolated from Reim and Parthevia.
The next destination is Reim,
Sharrkan calling someone, but his junior hanging up.
It turns out it was Masrur, who has
joined the Fanalis Corps and has 2 wives, likely approved by Mu, the captain.
Alibaba asks why he’s not with
Sinbad, the Fanalis saying he wasn’t needed, someone else at his side besides
Jafar (probably Hakuei/Gyokuen?).
The Dungeon Conqueror asks Masrur if
Sinbad should really be seen as admirable in making all these decisions. He
thinks that it’s better for the people to make the decisions themselves rather
than just leaving them up to people like Sinbad.
Masrur says Alibaba shouldn’t be so
harsh on Sinbad, directing the Amon King Vessel to meet Reim’s Magi, Titus.
The chapter ends as we see him, Mu,
Ignatius and what I imagine is Sphintus from Heliohapt, welcoming Alibaba
Bleach 667
As Gerard’s arm flies down, Ikkaku
is in disbelief that Kenpachi has arrived on the scene.
Meanwhile, the Miracle regenerates
his arm, Byakuya explaining that his ability seems to be improving and
regrowing any part of his body that’s damaged, making it stronger than before.
Kenpachi moves to cut up Gerard even
more, Toushirou stopping him. He reminds the reckless Soul Reaper that if
Gerard becomes any stronger, his size would mean that if he was defeated and
fell, Seireitei would be obliterated.
But Kenpachi doesn’t seem to care,
pushing Gerard’s mass away after he tried to step on them, managing to stop the
blow with his amazing physical power.
After he tries to slash through the
Quincy’s shield, Gerard pulls out his Hoffnung blade to defeat Kenpachi.
Kenpachi releases his Shikai,
Toushirou and Byakuya thinking this means that their theory that his Zanpakutou
remained in perpetual release state was wrong.
The Miracle and Kenpachi clash,
Kenpachi’s Nozarashi pushing Hoffnung back.
The chapter ends as Gerard says he’s
not taking that laying down, noting how Nozarashi nicked Hoffnung, the two squaring
off again.
Toriko 364
We find out that it isn’t Appetite
Energy that Don Slime is creating, but a star, condensing an immense amount of
mass into it so that the resulting supernova will wipe out the planet and
everything within 7 light years.
The resulting explosion is eaten by
NEO to Don Slime’s shock as he reverts back to his smaller form.
We flashback to Don Slime finding
Ichiryuu’s soul in the Back Channel. Ichiryuu rejects Don Slime’s offer to be
resurrected, focusing on something he found in the World of Spirits, something
gestating, an unimaginable amount of appetite.
Since time is infinite in the Back
Channel, Ichiryuu’s been contemplating evolution and how it connects to
appetite. That drive pushed people to evolve in his perspective. He just hopes
he’s changed the world so that the next evolution will make things better for
people, to allow happiness where everyone is equal at the dinner table.
Ichiryuu notes that NEO is something
radically different, not from their world.
ANOTHER’s preparation is complete,
pushing Don Slime out of the Back Channel.
In the present, Don Slime is still
in shock, NEO in the midst of eating him.
The Blue Nitro PAIR appears, noting
that the reason why NEO is called that is because its Gourmet Cells are so
radically different.
Don Slime is consumed by NEO, the
Gourmet Cell Demon demanding to know when GOD is arriving.
To sate his appetite for the moment,
PAIR says that NEO should help the Blue Nitro defeat Jirou, who is powerful
enough to keep them occupied while the lone Blue Nitro arrived here to send the
message.
The chapter ends on this building
conflict, Jirou’s power more than we could’ve imagined.
Fairy Tail 478
Natsu punches Jacob, the Assassin Mage counter-attacking,
the two exchanging blows for a bit, before Jacob grabs Natsu and slams him into
the ground.
He disappears, Natsu unable to counter him as he attacks
from seemingly nowhere. Mavis thinks this is a complete Stealth Camouflage
magic.
The Spriggan explains he can even see those things which are
normally unseen, like Mavis’ spirit form.
Lucy unleashes Loke, thinking that he’s just invisible, but
Jacob still pushes the Stellar Spirit back.
He then initiates multiple attacks, revealing that his magic
is focused on invisibility, making himself unseen and his attacks and also
seeing that which is unseen.
Natsu continues to assault him, but Jacob pins him, making
Lucy’s clothing invisible, leaving her in her underwear.
He taunts Natsu, thinking this is punishment to the Dragon
Slayer, but Natsu thinks this is nothing, since Lucy’s always in revealing
outfits, so he’s used to it. Jacob himself is unable to look at Lucy, thinking
it indecent to do such things, the magic a double edged sword for him.
Lucy and Natsu make a quick plan, Lucy making to take off
her clothes. As Jacob continues to close his eyes, we find that Lucy changed
her Stellar Dress Form, she and Natsu taking advantage of an opening and
simultaneously hitting Jacob with a kick and punch to the face.
The chapter ends as Jacob is fuming mad and ready to fight,
while Mavis has somehow discerned a way to defeat Zeref from the battle so far.
