1
00:00:02,297 --> 00:00:04,017
The Clover Kingdom.
2
00:00:04,507 --> 00:00:06,477
In this kingdom where magic is everything,
3
00:00:06,477 --> 00:00:09,877
there is one boy who can't use magic.
4
00:00:10,307 --> 00:00:12,537
His name is Asta.
5
00:00:13,177 --> 00:00:15,907
With guts and hard work,
he made it into the Magic Knights,
6
00:00:15,907 --> 00:00:18,747
and he never gave up,
despite how much he got hurt.
7
00:00:18,747 --> 00:00:21,617
He continues to diligently
aim for the top!
8
00:00:23,147 --> 00:00:24,717
Even if you are a peasant,
9
00:00:24,717 --> 00:00:26,557
or even if you're poor...
10
00:00:26,877 --> 00:00:29,307
Anyone in this world can still shine!
11
00:00:29,307 --> 00:00:31,727
He's working hard to prove that,
12
00:00:32,137 --> 00:00:34,817
and to become the Wizard King!
13
00:00:37,667 --> 00:00:39,537
Asta and the others arrived
14
00:00:39,537 --> 00:00:42,367
in the Heart Kingdom to learn
more about the devil's curse,
15
00:00:42,367 --> 00:00:45,267
but Asta was taken away, and Noelle, Mimosa,
16
00:00:45,267 --> 00:00:48,867
and Finral were forced to fight
the Spirit Guardian Gaja.
17
00:00:49,537 --> 00:00:52,387
Meanwhile, Asta, after being taken away,
18
00:00:52,387 --> 00:00:56,667
was forced into a fight with
the Water Spirit, Undine.
19
00:00:56,977 --> 00:01:01,027
I'm Undine. I'm one of the four
Great Spirits, and I'm contracted
20
00:01:01,027 --> 00:01:02,957
to the Queen of the Heart Kingdom.
21
00:01:03,617 --> 00:01:05,177
Undine and Gaja...
22
00:01:05,177 --> 00:01:07,657
Asta and the others were
forced to face one of
23
00:01:07,657 --> 00:01:10,557
the four Great Spirits as well
as a Spirit Guardian, but...
24
00:01:10,557 --> 00:01:12,557
Sealing Magic: Inverse Release!
25
00:01:13,357 --> 00:01:17,277
Sorry, but we can't just back down
after you did all that showing off!
26
00:01:18,107 --> 00:01:21,347
Pardon me! I'm coming in!
27
00:01:40,237 --> 00:01:44,737
{\an8}The Devil Megicula
28
00:03:01,187 --> 00:03:02,507
A doll?
29
00:03:02,507 --> 00:03:05,427
But I could've sworn I felt
a person's ki in here.
30
00:03:10,747 --> 00:03:12,307
Uh...
31
00:03:12,837 --> 00:03:13,787
Hey.
32
00:03:14,877 --> 00:03:16,267
I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!
33
00:03:16,267 --> 00:03:20,267
This thick-pelted beaver just
felt so good on my skin!
34
00:03:22,877 --> 00:03:24,657
What the heck was that fo—
35
00:03:28,197 --> 00:03:30,527
Glasses... My glasses....
36
00:03:32,287 --> 00:03:35,787
Goodness... What are you doing, Loropechika?
37
00:03:36,197 --> 00:03:39,627
I told you to hurry up and
change out of your pajamas.
38
00:03:39,627 --> 00:03:42,157
{\an8}I'm sorry, I'm sorry...
39
00:03:39,627 --> 00:03:43,707
Loropechika
40
00:03:44,837 --> 00:03:47,837
So she's the queen of the Heart Kingdom?!
41
00:03:53,177 --> 00:03:56,977
I might've been in trouble if
my technique hadn't defended me.
42
00:03:56,977 --> 00:04:01,687
It appears that she was holding back.
What a magnificent talent.
43
00:04:01,687 --> 00:04:03,357
Now, as for them...
44
00:04:11,517 --> 00:04:12,907
He's way too fast!
45
00:04:14,117 --> 00:04:15,907
I do apologize.
46
00:04:16,417 --> 00:04:20,917
I forced you into a fight in order
to assess your magic stages.
47
00:04:21,507 --> 00:04:22,537
Huh?
48
00:04:22,997 --> 00:04:24,907
Magic stages?
49
00:04:24,907 --> 00:04:27,817
The stage nine, eight, seven thing,
50
00:04:27,817 --> 00:04:30,087
where the smaller the number is,
the stronger you are?
51
00:04:30,587 --> 00:04:35,347
Yes. Mages fight not with force of numbers,
but with how powerful their magic is.
52
00:04:35,787 --> 00:04:38,117
There are cases where dozens may attack,
53
00:04:38,117 --> 00:04:41,917
and they would be no match for a single mage.
54
00:04:42,467 --> 00:04:48,857
That's why, in wars between magical nations,
power is measured by magic stages.
55
00:04:48,857 --> 00:04:53,357
In other words, a kingdom's power
is determined by how many mages
56
00:04:48,857 --> 00:04:55,617
{\an7}Stage Zero
Stage One
Stage Two
Stage Three
Stage Four
Stage Five
Stage Six
Stage Seven
Stage Eight
Stage Nine
57
00:04:53,357 --> 00:04:55,617
it has that are near stage zero.
58
00:04:55,617 --> 00:04:58,497
And if you're dealing with a devil,
59
00:04:58,497 --> 00:05:01,247
no one lower than stage one will
be able to keep up with it.
60
00:05:01,247 --> 00:05:04,577
A devil... That's right!
61
00:05:04,577 --> 00:05:08,547
We came here because we detected
a huge curse signal here that may be
62
00:05:08,547 --> 00:05:09,717
the work of a devil!
63
00:05:10,827 --> 00:05:14,347
Why do they know something that
only a Spirit Guardian should know?
64
00:05:14,347 --> 00:05:17,597
Do you know anything about devil curses?
65
00:05:17,597 --> 00:05:19,637
You don't hold back, do you?
66
00:05:20,177 --> 00:05:23,557
It's too bad for you, but no one's
going to talk about them.
67
00:05:23,557 --> 00:05:27,747
Oh, that's me... I got cursed by a devil.
68
00:05:27,747 --> 00:05:31,447
If nothing is done, I'll die in about a year.
69
00:05:31,447 --> 00:05:32,607
Huh?
70
00:05:32,607 --> 00:05:33,697
Huh?!
71
00:05:33,697 --> 00:05:34,697
Huh?!
72
00:05:35,037 --> 00:05:36,917
Huh? Why did you tell them?! What?
73
00:05:36,917 --> 00:05:37,467
Huh?
74
00:05:37,467 --> 00:05:38,117
Huh?
75
00:05:38,117 --> 00:05:39,337
Huh?
76
00:05:41,737 --> 00:05:43,907
Honestly... What am I going to do with you?
77
00:05:43,907 --> 00:05:46,547
That side of you is adorable, too.
78
00:05:47,517 --> 00:05:53,397
That's right. The reason we brought
you here and measured your magic stages
79
00:05:53,817 --> 00:05:56,557
was so that we can defeat Megicula,
80
00:05:56,557 --> 00:05:58,677
the devil that cursed Loropechika.
81
00:06:00,557 --> 00:06:03,897
I'm sure this interests you, too.
82
00:06:04,227 --> 00:06:08,077
Citizens of the Clover Kingdom,
please join us in—
83
00:06:09,627 --> 00:06:10,687
What's wrong?!
84
00:06:10,687 --> 00:06:14,287
I forgot to water the poplatatta trees!
85
00:06:14,287 --> 00:06:15,697
D'oh!
86
00:06:15,697 --> 00:06:19,337
I'm pretty sure we were in the
middle of talking about something
87
00:06:19,337 --> 00:06:20,977
really important just now!
88
00:06:20,977 --> 00:06:24,457
Is it okay for the queen of
a kingdom to act like that?
89
00:06:43,797 --> 00:06:45,787
Holy crap!
90
00:06:45,787 --> 00:06:48,597
There you go. Have some water.
91
00:06:53,287 --> 00:06:55,947
I see the zozo squirrels
are as lively as ever today.
92
00:06:55,947 --> 00:06:59,777
Hey now, Michely. Don't run too fast.
93
00:06:59,777 --> 00:07:03,367
Old man Kakalasa's cough seems
to be better. That's great.
94
00:07:03,367 --> 00:07:06,957
Oh, the totohl fruits grew so splendidly!
95
00:07:09,097 --> 00:07:11,207
She's watering whole forests at once!
96
00:07:11,207 --> 00:07:13,827
She obtained information from all
around the kingdom in an instant.
97
00:07:13,827 --> 00:07:16,587
And she's controlling the water everywhere.
98
00:07:17,097 --> 00:07:19,737
An all-encompassing benevolence
99
00:07:19,737 --> 00:07:23,517
combined with delicacy that
doesn't miss a single thing...
100
00:07:23,957 --> 00:07:27,077
So this is the magic of
the Heart Kingdom's queen.
101
00:07:27,717 --> 00:07:29,517
Now, now, Loropechika...
102
00:07:30,017 --> 00:07:32,777
Go and get changed into
some proper clothes already.
103
00:07:32,777 --> 00:07:38,277
The current queen has inherited the
power of most of the previous queens.
104
00:07:38,947 --> 00:07:42,277
The guardian deity of the beautiful
and peaceful Heart Kingdom...
105
00:07:42,277 --> 00:07:43,837
The all-knowing priestess...
106
00:07:44,787 --> 00:07:48,537
Someone who cannot be lost to a devil's curse.
107
00:07:49,297 --> 00:07:51,797
There is no one else like her!
108
00:07:57,297 --> 00:08:01,987
See? You're beautiful when you
actually clean yourself up.
109
00:08:01,987 --> 00:08:03,767
But it's so hard to move in this...
110
00:08:08,347 --> 00:08:09,437
Why, though?!
111
00:08:10,307 --> 00:08:11,957
For crying out loud, Loropechika...
112
00:08:11,957 --> 00:08:15,937
I get it! Her insane klutziness must
be due to the devil's curse, too!
113
00:08:15,937 --> 00:08:18,547
Oh, no. That's just me.
114
00:08:18,547 --> 00:08:20,297
What?!
115
00:08:20,297 --> 00:08:25,287
Curse... The loathsome devil that
cursed my beloved Loropechika...
116
00:08:25,607 --> 00:08:28,667
Megicula is in that kingdom.
117
00:08:28,667 --> 00:08:32,037
Diamond Kingdom
118
00:08:34,497 --> 00:08:38,497
We came to scout the Diamond
Kingdom just in case, but...
119
00:08:38,497 --> 00:08:39,677
This is...
120
00:08:45,637 --> 00:08:48,937
He managed to defeat all those
Diamond soldiers on his own...
121
00:08:48,937 --> 00:08:51,997
Some of them were as strong as our captains,
122
00:08:51,997 --> 00:08:53,317
yet he defeated them so easily.
123
00:08:58,267 --> 00:09:00,407
Don't you dare get any stupid ideas, Luck!
124
00:09:00,407 --> 00:09:04,077
I hate to admit it, but I've
never felt like this before.
125
00:09:04,787 --> 00:09:05,947
I actually...
126
00:09:06,717 --> 00:09:08,257
don't want to fight him.
127
00:09:14,037 --> 00:09:18,007
Heart Kingdom Royal Palace
128
00:09:18,757 --> 00:09:22,007
The Queen's Chamber
129
00:09:23,107 --> 00:09:24,047
Hey, guys!
130
00:09:24,047 --> 00:09:25,317
Asta!
131
00:09:24,557 --> 00:09:26,037
Hey!
132
00:09:25,317 --> 00:09:27,557
Thank goodness you're okay.
133
00:09:27,557 --> 00:09:30,197
You get kidnapped way too often.
134
00:09:30,197 --> 00:09:32,307
Give it a rest already.
135
00:09:32,737 --> 00:09:34,807
The queen has arrived.
136
00:09:45,937 --> 00:09:48,057
She's so majestic and beautiful.
137
00:09:48,057 --> 00:09:51,117
And she possesses vast, immeasurable magic!
138
00:09:51,747 --> 00:09:54,627
So this is the queen of the Heart Kingdom?
139
00:09:54,627 --> 00:09:57,477
She's so beautiful!
140
00:09:57,477 --> 00:10:00,877
You are truly a goddess who
has descended upon this land!
141
00:10:00,877 --> 00:10:04,787
Damn it! You know better than that, Finral!
142
00:10:04,787 --> 00:10:07,757
You! Are! Going! To! Change!
143
00:10:08,157 --> 00:10:10,837
What the heck's going on with Finral?
144
00:10:10,837 --> 00:10:11,637
Who knows?
145
00:10:12,237 --> 00:10:14,417
Citizens of the Clover Kingdom,
146
00:10:15,237 --> 00:10:17,717
please lend us your strength.
147
00:10:21,977 --> 00:10:22,777
Wait, why?!
148
00:10:23,277 --> 00:10:27,507
Come on, Loropechika!
You need to act like a queen!
149
00:10:24,637 --> 00:10:26,667
{\an8}Ow...
150
00:10:27,507 --> 00:10:30,657
Oh, your nose is bleeding...
But you're so cute!
151
00:10:33,597 --> 00:10:35,077
Wh-What was that?
152
00:10:35,077 --> 00:10:37,247
I got some blood on my dress.
153
00:10:37,247 --> 00:10:39,877
Okay, okay, just a second...
154
00:10:40,707 --> 00:10:44,347
This is why I said she shouldn't
meet them in person.
155
00:10:47,827 --> 00:10:51,177
Why do you need our help?
156
00:10:51,177 --> 00:10:56,947
Doesn't the Heart Kingdom have many
mages who are stage one or higher,
157
00:10:56,947 --> 00:10:58,727
including the Spirit Guardians?
158
00:10:58,727 --> 00:11:02,897
I mentioned earlier that everyone
needs to be stage one or higher
159
00:11:02,897 --> 00:11:04,857
to keep up in a fight with devils,
160
00:11:04,857 --> 00:11:06,747
but even if one was stage zero,
161
00:11:06,747 --> 00:11:09,407
they would not be able to finish off a devil.
162
00:11:10,837 --> 00:11:16,577
The Spirit Guardians borrow some power
from natural mana to use powerful magic,
163
00:11:16,577 --> 00:11:18,417
but they still cannot defeat devils.
164
00:11:19,147 --> 00:11:24,177
Unlike us, the Clover Kingdom has
created types of magic that are not natural,
165
00:11:24,177 --> 00:11:27,107
such as chain, steel,
and the eccentric spatial magic,
166
00:11:27,107 --> 00:11:30,337
in exchange for giving up the
divine protection of natural mana.
167
00:11:31,147 --> 00:11:33,697
Some of the irregulars who were born
168
00:11:33,697 --> 00:11:36,727
in that environment have the
power to defeat a devil.
169
00:11:38,637 --> 00:11:42,687
For example, the Wizard King who
uses time magic, Julius Novachrono,
170
00:11:42,687 --> 00:11:47,387
or the Captain of the Black Bulls,
Yami Sukehiro, who uses dark magic.
171
00:11:48,547 --> 00:11:53,197
Though it appears that Julius
has lost most of his power...
172
00:11:54,357 --> 00:11:55,927
She even knows about that?
173
00:11:55,927 --> 00:11:58,747
Just how much does she know?
174
00:11:59,317 --> 00:12:00,587
And...
175
00:12:01,137 --> 00:12:02,817
Asta and Nero.
176
00:12:04,757 --> 00:12:07,427
In terms of combat magic alone,
Nero is about a stage six,
177
00:12:07,427 --> 00:12:11,097
but she has ancient sealing magic
and has used forbidden magic.
178
00:12:11,897 --> 00:12:13,457
And Asta doesn't have any magic,
179
00:12:13,457 --> 00:12:16,517
but he was able to obtain
anti-magic because of that.
180
00:12:18,097 --> 00:12:23,777
People with inexplicable powers such
as yours are known as arcane stages.
181
00:12:23,777 --> 00:12:27,647
Stage Zero
182
00:12:25,507 --> 00:12:27,647
{\an8}Arcane Stage
183
00:12:27,647 --> 00:12:29,987
Arcane stage...
184
00:12:30,397 --> 00:12:34,417
I'd like you to lend us your arcane
powers to help defeat that devil.
185
00:12:34,837 --> 00:12:38,747
In exchange, I'll offer you any
information that is available to me.
186
00:12:39,377 --> 00:12:42,397
We can't make decisions like that.
187
00:12:42,397 --> 00:12:45,337
I'll use a transmission magic item
to ask Captain Yami!
188
00:12:46,337 --> 00:12:48,337
I'm taking a dump right now!
189
00:12:49,137 --> 00:12:52,197
What? You've got something
really important to tell me?
190
00:12:52,197 --> 00:12:55,197
Well, what I'm doing right
now is really important, too.
191
00:12:55,197 --> 00:12:57,927
This might be the biggest dump in history.
192
00:12:57,927 --> 00:12:59,427
Call back later!
193
00:12:59,427 --> 00:13:00,937
What?!
194
00:13:01,287 --> 00:13:02,777
Pooping is indeed very important.
195
00:13:02,777 --> 00:13:03,937
She agreed with him?!
196
00:13:04,417 --> 00:13:07,297
You mustn't use such vulgar words, Loropechika!
197
00:13:08,447 --> 00:13:11,587
Um... I figured something
like this may happen,
198
00:13:11,587 --> 00:13:15,957
so I borrowed a magic item that lets us
connect with Marx's transmission magic.
199
00:13:15,957 --> 00:13:17,087
Good job, Mimosa!
200
00:13:17,087 --> 00:13:18,457
Way to go, Mimosa!
201
00:13:18,457 --> 00:13:20,207
All right, I'll go ahead and connect.
202
00:13:21,627 --> 00:13:24,207
Mimosa? Did something happen?
203
00:13:24,207 --> 00:13:27,037
Wait, is that...
204
00:13:27,037 --> 00:13:31,467
You must be the queen of the Heart Kingdom!
What kind of magic do you use?!
205
00:13:31,467 --> 00:13:34,607
Please don't just pop up
like that, Master Julius!
206
00:13:34,607 --> 00:13:36,817
You're small right now, remember?
207
00:13:36,817 --> 00:13:38,037
People will find out.
208
00:13:38,037 --> 00:13:41,477
Well, yeah, you did just
call me "Master Julius."
209
00:13:43,457 --> 00:13:45,927
Don't worry. The queen already knew.
210
00:13:45,927 --> 00:13:46,727
Huh?!
211
00:13:48,317 --> 00:13:52,227
And so, in order to defeat
devils, we need to be...
212
00:13:52,227 --> 00:13:54,577
at the arcane stage, or something.
213
00:13:54,577 --> 00:13:56,037
Of course, that's fine.
214
00:13:56,037 --> 00:13:58,997
You all might get something
amazing out of this, too.
215
00:13:58,997 --> 00:14:01,947
To tell you the truth,
I'd prefer to be over there myself.
216
00:14:01,947 --> 00:14:03,457
You absolutely may not!
217
00:14:03,457 --> 00:14:07,377
It's settled, then. Thank goodness.
218
00:14:07,377 --> 00:14:12,087
But in your present states,
all of you will be killed so easily.
219
00:14:12,087 --> 00:14:14,467
Wow, she's honest!
220
00:14:15,067 --> 00:14:18,597
So the Spade devil is that strong?
221
00:14:18,597 --> 00:14:22,977
Yes. Stronger than the devil
you fought, I believe.
222
00:14:22,977 --> 00:14:24,707
Stronger than that guy?!
223
00:14:25,357 --> 00:14:26,567
During that fight,
224
00:14:26,567 --> 00:14:29,127
we only managed to win because we had help
225
00:14:29,127 --> 00:14:33,857
from incredible people like the first
Wizard King and the leader of the elves.
226
00:14:34,257 --> 00:14:37,657
The scar Gaja has is the
work of that devil, too.
227
00:14:38,557 --> 00:14:41,447
Him? The guy we barely
stood a chance against?
228
00:14:43,577 --> 00:14:48,927
That Spirit Guardian fellow fought
me in the past. He's quite skilled.
229
00:14:48,927 --> 00:14:50,127
He fought you?!
230
00:14:50,467 --> 00:14:55,637
A devil that can't be beaten by
someone the Wizard King praises...
231
00:14:57,547 --> 00:14:59,787
We don't stand a chance right now...
232
00:15:00,197 --> 00:15:02,387
We have to get stronger.
233
00:15:02,907 --> 00:15:06,347
The devil Megicula is
haunting the Spade Kingdom,
234
00:15:06,347 --> 00:15:09,917
using its citizens to amass power...
235
00:15:11,187 --> 00:15:13,977
in order to invade and
conquer the Clover Kingdom,
236
00:15:13,977 --> 00:15:16,537
the Heart Kingdom, and the Diamond Kingdom.
237
00:15:20,237 --> 00:15:24,627
As things stand, I will
also die from this curse.
238
00:15:25,147 --> 00:15:29,917
I'd like to invade the Spade Kingdom
before my power weakens.
239
00:15:31,627 --> 00:15:33,417
We have half a year.
240
00:15:34,117 --> 00:15:36,427
We'll need all the combat
power we can get.
241
00:15:37,537 --> 00:15:41,427
Please gather those who stand
a chance in a fight with a devil.
242
00:15:41,797 --> 00:15:46,687
I'd like you to get stronger and
fight alongside us in six months.
243
00:15:46,687 --> 00:15:48,437
Right! We'd also appreciate...
244
00:15:48,437 --> 00:15:49,947
...your help!
245
00:15:57,137 --> 00:16:00,157
Master Julius, are you sure
you're all right with this?
246
00:16:00,507 --> 00:16:04,977
The Magic Knights are still exhausted
from the battle against the elves.
247
00:16:05,427 --> 00:16:07,477
Though we have half a year,
248
00:16:07,477 --> 00:16:10,947
if we fight alongside the Heart
Kingdom to defeat a devil,
249
00:16:10,947 --> 00:16:12,727
we may face even greater casualties.
250
00:16:13,547 --> 00:16:17,177
I'm sure you heard what our scouts said.
251
00:16:17,757 --> 00:16:20,657
With the Diamond Kingdom in its current state,
252
00:16:20,657 --> 00:16:23,927
our only hope is to have the
Magic Knights get stronger.
253
00:16:24,267 --> 00:16:27,937
I'm sure the Queen of the Heart
Kingdom understands that, too.
254
00:16:27,937 --> 00:16:29,707
Master Julius...
255
00:16:29,707 --> 00:16:33,627
Marx, gather all of the
Magic Knights Squad Captains.
256
00:16:33,627 --> 00:16:34,937
Yes, sir.
257
00:16:38,197 --> 00:16:41,237
Munchy, munchy, munchy, munchy, munchy...
258
00:16:41,627 --> 00:16:43,987
When's the captain gonna show up?
259
00:16:43,987 --> 00:16:46,367
We have a super important announcement!
260
00:16:46,367 --> 00:16:48,867
Shut up, you stupid shrimp.
261
00:16:48,867 --> 00:16:52,587
If you don't quit yappin', the captain
won't be able to finish his business.
262
00:16:52,587 --> 00:16:54,197
He's taking a dump again?!
263
00:16:55,877 --> 00:16:57,127
I won.
264
00:16:57,127 --> 00:17:00,037
Wait, have you been in there ever since then?!
265
00:17:00,037 --> 00:17:01,827
This isn't the end.
266
00:17:01,827 --> 00:17:04,617
As much as I want to celebrate my victory,
267
00:17:04,617 --> 00:17:07,137
the next battle is just around the corner.
268
00:17:07,137 --> 00:17:09,347
That's seriously enough about that.
269
00:17:09,827 --> 00:17:13,217
Right. Let's hear what the group that
went to the Heart Kingdom has to say.
270
00:17:13,217 --> 00:17:14,357
Oh, right.
271
00:17:14,357 --> 00:17:17,187
Actually, I'm not sure where to begin.
272
00:17:17,187 --> 00:17:18,737
Me, me!
273
00:17:18,737 --> 00:17:22,817
The one cursed by a devil there
is the Heart Kingdom's queen!
274
00:17:23,257 --> 00:17:26,837
And because of that curse, the queen
only has about a year to live.
275
00:17:27,477 --> 00:17:30,107
The queen is the most powerful in the kingdom,
276
00:17:30,107 --> 00:17:32,177
and a mage chosen by one
of the Four Great Spirits.
277
00:17:32,737 --> 00:17:35,417
If they lose someone like that,
the Heart Kingdom will...
278
00:17:38,747 --> 00:17:41,517
This goes without saying,
but keep this on the down-low.
279
00:17:41,517 --> 00:17:45,347
So, did you find anything out about this devil?
280
00:17:46,237 --> 00:17:48,347
The devil's name is Megicula.
281
00:17:48,347 --> 00:17:51,307
And they're in the Spade Kingdom right now!
282
00:17:51,307 --> 00:17:52,497
Spade?
283
00:17:53,067 --> 00:17:56,067
Then maybe that explains what we saw.
284
00:17:56,417 --> 00:17:59,297
Huh? What are you talking about?
285
00:17:59,297 --> 00:18:04,447
Apparently, they saw a Spade mage near
the border of the Diamond Kingdom.
286
00:18:04,447 --> 00:18:05,527
A Spade?!
287
00:18:06,547 --> 00:18:09,787
He was no ordinary mage.
288
00:18:10,497 --> 00:18:12,147
He managed to
289
00:18:12,147 --> 00:18:16,377
single-handedly finish off hundreds
of Diamond soldiers in an instant.
290
00:18:16,797 --> 00:18:20,017
And that cold, dark magic...
291
00:18:20,017 --> 00:18:22,377
Everything would make sense
if he's possessed by a devil.
292
00:18:24,637 --> 00:18:29,597
It's very possible that the guy
we saw was Megicula himself.
293
00:18:29,597 --> 00:18:33,017
Th-Then the Diamond Kingdom...
294
00:18:33,017 --> 00:18:36,837
They're pretty much done for.
All because of that one guy.
295
00:18:41,857 --> 00:18:43,117
Mars...
296
00:18:44,277 --> 00:18:49,297
It was clear just from being near him
for a little while... We stood no chance.
297
00:18:49,977 --> 00:18:54,037
Even if we had acted, we would've faced
the same fate as the Diamond soldiers.
298
00:18:54,577 --> 00:18:56,817
Yeah, as you guys are right now.
299
00:18:56,817 --> 00:18:58,347
If we can't defeat that devil,
300
00:18:58,347 --> 00:19:01,717
both the Heart Kingdom and the
Clover Kingdom are gonna be finished.
301
00:19:01,717 --> 00:19:03,507
In order to stop that...
302
00:19:04,047 --> 00:19:06,047
We're gonna have to get stronger.
303
00:19:06,707 --> 00:19:09,217
The queen gave us six months.
304
00:19:09,717 --> 00:19:13,167
In six months, the Heart Kingdom
will attack the Spade Kingdom.
305
00:19:13,167 --> 00:19:15,587
We Magic Knights of the Clover Kingdom
306
00:19:15,587 --> 00:19:18,827
need to train as hard as we can for
six months, get super strong,
307
00:19:18,827 --> 00:19:22,317
and defeat Megicula along
with the Heart Kingdom!
308
00:19:22,317 --> 00:19:23,877
Question.
309
00:19:23,877 --> 00:19:25,317
Sure thing, Zora!
310
00:19:25,627 --> 00:19:31,557
So this devil's actually
beatable if all we do is train?
311
00:19:31,557 --> 00:19:33,187
We won't be able to keep up in a fight
312
00:19:33,187 --> 00:19:35,727
against a devil unless we're
all stage one or higher.
313
00:19:35,987 --> 00:19:38,757
For perspective, that would
mean we'd all have to be
314
00:19:38,757 --> 00:19:41,537
as strong as 1st Class Senior Magic Knights...
315
00:19:41,537 --> 00:19:44,717
no, we need to be above that,
or we don't stand a chance.
316
00:19:44,717 --> 00:19:50,387
So you're telling us to get to a
vice captain's level in six months?!
317
00:19:50,387 --> 00:19:52,267
You sure make it sound easy.
318
00:19:52,587 --> 00:19:56,617
And currently, the only ones who
stand a chance against the devil
319
00:19:56,617 --> 00:20:00,017
are the Wizard King, Yami, Asta, and Nero,
320
00:20:00,017 --> 00:20:03,027
who all belong to a group
called the arcane stage.
321
00:20:03,027 --> 00:20:07,817
Though I don't plan on giving up even
if I'm told I don't stand a chance.
322
00:20:08,897 --> 00:20:12,787
Because Megicula is the
one who killed my mother.
323
00:20:13,187 --> 00:20:15,927
Come on! Pull yourself together, Luck!
324
00:20:15,927 --> 00:20:18,607
Lady Noe just said she wasn't gonna give up!
325
00:20:18,607 --> 00:20:21,857
We're her seniors! We can't chicken out!
326
00:20:23,117 --> 00:20:24,737
I wasn't being myself.
327
00:20:25,267 --> 00:20:28,887
I don't have time to be scared
when our friend's life is at stake.
328
00:20:29,627 --> 00:20:31,137
Friend's life?
329
00:20:31,907 --> 00:20:35,087
Of course, I'll do everything
I can to become a stage one.
330
00:20:35,087 --> 00:20:37,937
In order to protect my bestest friend, Asta!
331
00:20:37,937 --> 00:20:41,867
That's right! I need to do
something about Megicula,
332
00:20:41,867 --> 00:20:43,707
or I'm gonna be sentenced to death!
333
00:20:43,707 --> 00:20:45,317
How could you forget that?
334
00:20:45,317 --> 00:20:47,777
Guess we don't have a choice, then.
335
00:20:47,777 --> 00:20:52,327
True Magic Knights can't just
let devils do whatever they want.
336
00:20:52,327 --> 00:20:56,507
I-I have no idea what I can do...
337
00:20:56,507 --> 00:20:58,287
But I'll do my best!
338
00:20:58,677 --> 00:21:01,777
I'm gonna use these six months
to become even stronger
339
00:21:01,777 --> 00:21:03,977
and defeat this loathsome curse!
340
00:21:05,307 --> 00:21:08,377
So that I can become a man
worthy of Miss Finnes, as well.
341
00:21:08,757 --> 00:21:12,267
After we defeat Megicula
and our curse is broken,
342
00:21:12,267 --> 00:21:14,117
I want to talk to Nozel again...
343
00:21:15,257 --> 00:21:17,017
about Mother.
344
00:21:17,587 --> 00:21:20,707
Anyway, we just need to kick Megicula's ass!
345
00:21:20,707 --> 00:21:24,857
Then I might be able to find
out more about my devil, too!
346
00:21:24,857 --> 00:21:28,047
For the sake of their futures and this world...
347
00:21:28,047 --> 00:21:30,617
I can't let another devil
have its way any longer.
348
00:21:32,307 --> 00:21:35,307
So that means for the next six months,
349
00:21:35,307 --> 00:21:37,567
the Black Bulls are free
to do whatever they want.
350
00:21:37,567 --> 00:21:41,117
You can go wherever you want.
You can team up with whoever you want.
351
00:21:42,077 --> 00:21:45,177
You have one mission: to become stronger.
352
00:21:45,177 --> 00:21:47,517
We're dealing with a devil
and the Spade Kingdom.
353
00:21:47,517 --> 00:21:49,397
You need to train like your life depends on it.
354
00:21:49,397 --> 00:21:51,807
If you don't, I'll kill you.
355
00:21:51,807 --> 00:21:54,517
I always tell you to do this in the moment,
356
00:21:54,517 --> 00:21:56,887
so if you have six months,
that should be plenty of time.
357
00:21:57,257 --> 00:21:59,887
Surpass your limits!
358
00:21:59,887 --> 00:22:01,107
Right!
359
00:23:36,987 --> 00:23:39,027
It's not just the Clover Kingdom.
360
00:23:39,027 --> 00:23:40,947
This is a life-or-death situation
for the Heart Kingdom
361
00:23:40,947 --> 00:23:41,907
and Diamond Kingdom, too.
362
00:23:42,317 --> 00:23:44,617
Next time on Black Clover, Page 130:
363
00:23:43,247 --> 00:23:51,177
Page 130
The New Magic Knights Squad Captains' Meeting
364
00:23:44,617 --> 00:23:47,167
"The New Magic Knights
Squad Captains' Meeting."
365
00:23:47,167 --> 00:23:50,997
We must become stronger in order to
face that devil and the Spade Kingdom.
