Seven Deadly Sins is off this week

 Dr. Stone 126

As Moz acts like the hooded warriors are too strong, the setup for the Kingdom of Science to take the petrification weapon when Kirisame throws it seems perfect, down to the location and all the methods they have. But Ibara, having gotten Kohaku’s earring, has seemingly heard things about the plan and advised Kirisame in some way as the chapter concludes with her throwing the weapon

We Never Learn 132

Nariyuki and Uruka meet up thanks to the dog from before that she’s taking care of. The dog gets away from them and they meet the foreigners from a while ago and, thankfully, the dog finds its owner, Nariyuki and Uruka going on the rental boat they used again to talk about the future

Fire Force 193

Shinra and Burns both reaffirm their vows, to be a hero and to be the lion of Sol, clashing as Burns increases Voltage Nova to Stage 5

My Hero Academia 247

Deku, Bakugo and Shoto all explain their goals in the internship: Deku to better control his output with the new Quirk manifestation, Bakugou to discover his limits as a Hero and Shoto to become his own Hero apart from Endeavor’s influence

One Piece 959

We flashback to 2 days before, the groups all planning for the invasion of Onigashima, but we also see how Orochi sabotaged the routes to Tokage Port, also destroying many ships (including the Sunny), so they couldn’t travel. In the present, Kinemon and the others still want to fulfill their lord, Oden’s, wishes to open Wano and flashback to 39 years, before Oden became daimyo, seen as a notorious thug.

Black Clover 225

As the group meets Gaja of the Spirit Guard, we learn about how powerful the queen is, the country having survived for over a millennium under the abilities of the water spirit that the ruler contracts with as a priestess. Asta is taken away to meet the queen, while Noelle, Finral and Mimosa confront Gaja, who uses magic from a grimoire that appears to be based in runes rather than how the Clover Kingdom’s grimoires function
