I saw they are up to 126 on Funimation Now, and in that tweet they announced 127 is going up tomorrow. I don't know if there will be marathons for all those days, as Toonami has scaled back marathons (though now they may have to have more again,) but yeah, we may get lucky and Black Clover may not have to take any breaks, or only a one or two brief ones!

Looks like 123-125 are all filler. Boo. 125 isn't part of the recap, though.

Basically, this.

I don't care about ratings so long as they are good enough to keep the show or block I like on the air. If something I like isn't very popular, it doesn't matter to me. But, you can easily see, given its cultural influence and how JoJo stuff, quotes, references, memes, are everywhere, that it is popular, regardless of Toonami ratings. It is probably what Angel said though, as far as why no reruns. Toonami likely doesn't have it in the contract. Why else would they go to Ballmasters?

I just re-watched 119-122. A few things I noticed/confirmed. Yuno did in fact lose the elf markings and ears. He doesn't have the spirit of Licht and Tetya's unborn son in him anymore. It is easy to miss since Yuno is only shown I think once when he loses the elf looks, and once more looking normal. I don't know if he lost any of the upgrades from the elf powers or not. I do think it's odd Yuno didn't show up to help Asta at the trial, or even shown with the other Golden Dawn members hearing about the trial. I saw no indication that Julius set up the trial. Only that he knew it was inevitable, and set things up to get Asta out of it. Also, the braclet is only a tracker and not a killswitch of any kind.

So is this a recap episode, or are we seeing stuff about the past we didn't know before?

Oh hey it's the cliffhanger from last episode that wasn't addressed. So we are just going to replay it and re-cliffhanger it!

That weird chef hat and eyepatch and collar tells me Kishimoto is REALLY running out of character designs.

Wow, that was clever Naruto! Made him hit himself heh.

Pissing, really? And rapping about it? *sigh*

Nope Naruto didn't figure out how to do the beast bomb. Telepathic communication network heh.

Lol those two fangirls again. Now gushing over Naruto.

So, this whole business of using a different number of fingers, and thrust...

Who is HIM, Kabuto? No need to be vague with no one else around. I'm pretty sure that's Todd playing the weird hat and eyepatch guy. The mud comes out of their mouths? Gross.

Now who the hell is this guy? His outfit is terrible. Haha no stronger wind users. Oh Temari. What the heck kind of Rasengan is that?!

Man this thing of the undead ninjas telling how to beat them is so fucking silly.

Thanks for wasting our time with another demented music video, Demarco.

I must have totally missed it was a kill switch and not just a tracker. Asta maybe, but Nero doesn't have a devil inside her does she? She just got the horns from using the forbidden magic.

I somehow did not catch that at all. I don't think it's a kill switch. It's just a tracker. Eeehh, I got some vibes early on that there was something off about the Wizard King and that maybe he could be evil but after a while I became fully convinced he's a nice guy who is just kind of quirky and a magic geek. It's not a way to exercise authority. Wizard King came up with what he could to get Asta out of trouble. I never watched or read Game of Thrones.

Man this show moves way too fast and is way too whacked out to follow.

Why are those threads still pinned anyway?

I'm going to re-watch the last few episodes tomorrow or later in the week so I'm going to look for that. I just remember it being said he had the spirit of Licht's son inside him. I figured it was related to the reincarnation spell. I do think the face markings went away at least.

Yeah I'm dead tired after helping my cousins move today. I'll have to re-watch this episode later. Because what I got out of it was Wizard King helped Asta get out of it with his shenanigans, but not that he set up the trial in the first place.

I didn't get that impression at all. It was the nobles, King Clover and Danatio whatever his name is that wanted to persecute Asta and Nero.

I meant where was Yuno to help Asta at the trial. Yuno isn't stuck as the elf is he?
