Black Clover, Vol. 8 - Yuki Tabata 4 stars

Art for battle sequences was kind of sloppy, but this was still a fun read

full review

The battle in the underwater temple rages on! The Eye of Midnight Sun appeared abruptly on the scene, in the form of Vetto. Part of a group of powerful magic users known as the Third Eye, this guy is Trouble! Can any of our intrepid heroes stand against him?!

And the answer to that is – it doesn’t look like it! This entire volume is one big fight scene. The art for the battle sequences is a bit sloppy, and I had to give extra attention to some panels in order to understand what the heck was going on. There are so many speed lines, and explosive effects, and screen tone in general that the panels are cluttered and difficult to understand. This is the first time in the series that I’ve really felt out of my depth, and therefore distanced from the action.

Getting back to the story, I really enjoyed it. Most of the Black Bulls who traveled to the temple, as well as their new temple priest buddies, are drawn into this impossible fight. Yami and the high priest are trapped by the high priest’s spatial magic, and can’t leave until the contest is over. Oh, noes!! How can the Black Bulls emerge victorious with their strongest fighter, as well as their mentor and leader, trapped outside of the battle?

Things look really, really grim, as one by one, the Black Bulls are defeated. Then Asta, Noelle, Kahono, Vanessa, and Finral make their last stand. And it’s a doozy. Asta’s never say die attitude rallies the troops, but for how long? I was excited to see Noelle’s powers on display, as desperation makes her let loose – finally! Will they beat Vetto? I don’t know for sure, but make sure that you have volume 9 near at hand to find out!

Grade: 4 stars

Black Clover, Vol. 9 - Yuki Tabata 3.75 stars

After all of the magic slinging and sword swinging and fisticuffs at the Underwater Temple, the Black Bulls finally get a little bit of down time. Asta hasn’t come through the battle with Vetto unscathed, and he is nursing not one, but two broken arms. He seems to have taken the brunt of the beating, but he’s still gungho and rearing to go on another mission.

Yami reluctantly allows his injured brigade member to accompany him to see Julius and give a mission report. During the debriefing, they are rudely interrupted with news that Kiten has been attacked by the Diamond Kingdom. And not just any soldiers are leading the skirmish, but three of the Diamond Kingdom’s Shining Generals are leading the charge. This is serious stuff! If the Diamond Kingdom is successful in their attempt to grab a toehold into Kiten, Clover’s border defense system will be in serious jeopardy!

We get a little bit of info about the Shining Generals, learn about Finral’s stuck-up and snot-faced younger brother, and finally – FINALLY – meet up with Yuno again. Hooray!! Don’t think that Yuno has been slacking off, either, just because he hasn’t had much page time. He’s been honing his magic skills and been learning how to utilize his little winged companion’s powers. He’s even more bad ass than he was before!

Volume 9 is a nice reprieve from all of the incessant action of the previous three volumes. Yuno and Asta reaffirm their challenge to do their personal best and become the next Wizard King, Finral stands up to his awful brother, and Charmy gets a yummy snack. The big downer, and the lead up to the next story arc, is Asta and the apparent curse he’s under. Will his anti-magic grimoire be able to help him shake it off?
