Golem Hearts 6

Noah thinks his performance might have allowed him to pass the test, but Carles tells him they haven’t started yet.

Lily offers to heal people instead of moving on, but the defeated student who was beaten by the massive golem says he’ll do it instead, saying he couldn’t hope to pass and that he’ll try again next year

Inspired by this, Lily leads the group, everyone stopping the troublemaker from before by tying him up so he doesn’t try to following them



Lily and Carles introduce themselves as the students of Friedrich Liszt and Noah as Eir’s student. He surprises the instructor by saying he’ll disappoint him by going beyond his expectations

Lots of people are at the venue, Lily saying over 100 usually apply, but that only one passes most of the time. Noah is confident he’ll be the final one standing, but Carles saying that Erebus, grandson of Methuselah, the number one arcanist, is the favorite to win

Noah rushes up to Erebus, asking him to tell his grandfather that he wants to fight him, since he aims to be the number one arcanist in the world



Erebus’ golem smashes Noah away, people wondering if he’s dead. Erebus tells Noah that he’ll be the one to beat his grandfather, the two of them ready to fight already



But the examiner, Egmont, ranked 14th among federation arcanists, interrupts them, saying it’s time to start. He says they’re all here because they were recommended by people in the federation as promising arcanists, but that they still have to work past this challenge to prove themselves.

Since the federation gets requests for work that covers every aspect of life and the golem arts have become somewhat commonplace, they expect the highest quality of work.



Everyone’s separated into their field of study, including the fine arts, golem research and development and even tailoring, among other things. But most of the participants are military centered and they’ll be getting a special exam by comparison

A criminal organization called Sodom, regarded as dangerous even by the military, has stolen some goods and the task is to retrieve them

Many of the participants are hesitant, worried they might die, but Noah is unfazed by this, saying that if you don’t start with a confident attitude, there’s no way you could be number one, the chapter ending as the test is set to begin








Dr. Stone 39

As Magma falls in the water, Jasper looks at the helmet, Chrome pointing out that he’d already approved its use and it’s his own sweat and tears, the victory accepted, everyone happy that they’re pretty much guaranteed to win now



Gen leaves, saying he’ll wait for the kingdom of science to fully take over the village

Ginrou tells Ruri in secret that they’ll be willing to throw the match, though she says she’ll marry whoever wins, not biased towards Chrome



This makes Ginrou think he could be chief, fighting seriously against Senkuu to his shock. He promises to make the village a great place though he also seems to not realize that he can’t say he’ll have all you can eat ramen or harems for everyone when they can’t make it all the time and there aren’t enough women

The villagers agree that Ginrou should not be chief, Kaseki even saying he might be worse than Magma in some way. Kohaku thinks Senkuu doesn’t have a chance with his lack of fighting skills

But Chrome throws Suika’s helmet in, Senkuu using it as a base for a lever, increasing the force of an attack as Ginrou rushes at him, striking him hard in the crotch, knocking him out




Senkuu is declared the victor, saying he’ll throw the match, Chrome happy at this turn of events.

However, it turns out Chrome has fallen unconscious, the last of his strength used to help Senkuu.

The chapter concludes as Jasper says that due to this, Senkuu is the winner, the new chief and Ruri’s husband.








We Can’t Study 42

After a brief chapter that has a slight collaboration with Yuragi Sou no Yuuna San (which had an anime announced for 2018 recently), we shift to the chapter proper

Yuiga is at Uruka’s swim tournament, even though she said they didn’t have to come since they had prep school as well.

Uruka is being interviewed by a magazine reporter, surprisingly calm in her response as to what her goals are, though she does get flustered when they ask if she has a boyfriend. Yuiga’s amazed at how popular she is, male fans in the audience raucous at her appearance



The match starts, Yuiga remembering how different Uruka is when she’s studying, much more focused when swimming, almost like a different person

Uruka’s resting after her excellent performance in the 200 meter freestyle, the medley relay the last thing for them to participate in. This will be the last thing the third years can do together in the swim club, Uruka inspiring them to do their best and utilize everything they’ve practiced for.



Yuiga’s brimming with excitement as the relay commences, Ichinose Academy making good time. But Ikeda, the second year right before Uruka, gets them disqualified by diving just slightly too early for the 3rd lap. She’s sad at having ruined it for everyone, but Uruka says that she’s counting on her to take over the swim club, letting her vent, but also using that frustration to further galvanize her resolve.



Yuiga’s holding back from calling out to Uruka, but her teammates reveal him to her surprise. They leave them alone as the interviewer comes by, mistaking him for her boyfriend.

More fans arrive, Yuiga taking Uruka’s hand and pulling her away. They get a good distance away from everyone, Yuiga thinking that he can’t really say anything to console Uruka.

But he does tell her that he admires her for being so passionate about this, wondering if she feels regret. Uruka admits she did want to win, but she thinks this experience will motivate her junior to work even harder and she knows that other people are much sadder at having to part ways, like Kawase and Umihara, both crying together

Uruka says she’ll cry when she’s done everything she can, still willing to put in more work to improve further in the future. Yuiga sees her as dazzling now, like when she was swimming in the freestyle before




Uruka realizes that Yuiga was trying to cheer her on, the chapter ending as she invites him to stay with her a bit longer, which makes him embarrassed at what it might mean






Black Clover 137

Zora and Asta are amazed at Mereoleona fighting in close range and using such concentrated magic against Raia. But he heals himself again with the Light Magic he’s copied from Licht.

He manifests another spell, Light Sword of Judgment, wanting to finish off Mereoleona the most, seeing her as the primary danger




But even with the immense speed they have, Mereoleona manages to counter them with her own attacks. Raia uses Permeation Magic to avoid her counter attack and then attempts to strike with a Water Lance, but she turns around immediately, the Copy Mage saying it’s like Vett’s reaction speed


She continues to punch away his attacks, Raia still trying to keep her at bay


Zora notes that her strength may very well be from training in the wilderness, her mana skin getting tougher as she fought wild beasts for meat, since the Royal Capital didn’t have meat in their diets.

Raia’s Copy Magic is noted to allow him to copy any magic attribute and make it stronger in proportion to his own magical power enhancing a weaker Mage’s unique abilities if he copies them

But he can only use one attribute at a time, making it so that Mereoleona’s brute force method makes his varied attacks useless and that he can’t use the Permeation magic along with other magic

Suddenly, Raia pulls out Asta’s antimagic sword, having touched his grimoire before, the requirement to acquire a magic to copy





Raia remembers how Licht told him that his magic was kind, looking at people as they are and accepting them as such. But Raia says he’s a cruel person deep down, wanting to kill every human in revenge for the suffering they caused Licht and everyone around him at the wedding we saw in flashbacks before.

But it seems that his antimagic sword is just an imitation Mereoleona smashing it in two.

The chapter ends as Raia is attacked by Mereoleona’s Mana Zone, consecutive attacks of Calidus Brachium







Boku no Hero Academia 163

Deku and the others arrive at the dorm late at night because of the inquiries from the police and news media. Everyone is worried, but Iida tells them that they shouldn’t assume about what happened



Deku stops Iida, saying that it’s okay. Even with losing Nighteye and Mirio’s Quirk erased, they have to keep smiling. Iida then expresses his worry more explicitly, the others thinking he was the most concerned, as much as he kept up a serious front at first

Ochako thinks to herself about how she felt guilty, since she was the one carrying Nighteye to safety. But Aizawa tells her that now is the time she needs to think about what she wants to do, Ochako saying that she wants to help people as a Hero should

Bakugou and Todoroki go to bed early, their provisional license exam the next day

We see them leave, meeting up with Present Mic and All Might. Aizawa has to stay with Eri for some undetermined reason, so All Might is the substitute

All Might was contacted by Gran Torino, who says that they captured Kurogiri, but they couldn’t deal with Gigantomachia, having to retreat, since his power was such that it was more pragmatic to capture the League of Villain’s source of mobility rather than deal with the destructive force his ally could utilize




Endeavor meets up with All Might after they leave Todoroki and Bakugou to go to the training area, saying he needs to have a talk with the former #1 Hero




Todoroki and Bakugou meet up with Inasa, Camie and Seiji, all of them ready to start the provisional license exam in earnest as the chapter ends.








One Piece 888

We see that Luffy has returned to fight Katakuri, who asks why Luffy would come back knowing the difference in their strength. But the Straw Hat captain insists he will beat the Mochi Man

Meanwhile, Big Mom’s fleet is firing on the Straw Hats, but he cannonballs can’t be controlled because of the erratic state of the Soul Soul Fruit user. Her son Bavarois is irritated, but he’s told that they still have a chance




Carrot sees more ships catching them in a pincer attack, including Daifuku and Smoothie. Perospero says they can destroy the Straw Hats, since Big Mom will still be heading to Cacao Island anyway

The group thinks they have to force their way through, since they’re surrounded otherwise. Chopper is ready to go into his Wild Mode, but Carrot interrupts, saying she can be useful too
Because it’s the full moon, she can transform into a Ceylon (shown as Moon Lion in the Japanese), Jinbe assured by Carrot that she was trained




Her form becomes more mature in appearance, taller and her hair much more flowing and longer than before, as well as her Electro at its peak of power.

She rushes across the sea with amazing agility, taking out the crew on Daifuku’s ship.



To his shock, she rips off the helm as well, the chapter ending as she smiles, having helped the Straw Hats.






Seven Deadly Sins 245

Rueduciel explains that the Goddess Clan had to sacrifice their bodies to seal away the Demon Clan, becoming spirits that resided in relics and waiting for the time of revival. Ultimately they knew that sealing the Demons was only delaying the inevitable conclusion where one of them was completely destroyed in combat. Dreyfus is still skeptical, but Hendricksen says that her power is the real deal

We shift over to Jericho, Guila and Howzer fighting Demons, getting pushed back and almost eaten by a massive demon that resembles the Albion from a while back that King defeated



But they’re saved by people that we saw briefly back when Gloxinia and Dolor were holding their tournament, fighters that were scattered across the giant labyrinth made by the Giant King. They introduce themselves as members of Stigma, offering an alliance to destroy the Demon Clan, healing their wounds as well

Gilthunder is trying to escape from Vivian’s capture, seemingly getting out from a hole in the wall that leads to the outside, but finds that he’s on what appears to be a sky palace. Vivian explains that Merlin found it before, theorized to be made by the Goddess Clan in the past



Vivian tells Gilthunder that they should focus on repopulating, even willing to name a child Margaret if it’s a girl, but she’s stabbed through the throat by Rueduciel, telling Margaret that he’s done what she asked, so she must do his bidding in return.




Hendricksen marvels that the Druid altar connected to this sky palace, Margaret saying that she senses that they’re converging on this location, the 3 Evil Stars, shown as Meliodas, Zeldris and Estarossa as the chapter ends
