Watching Mereoleona snatch everyone up for training was so chaotic, and seeing Leopold push himself alongside Asta seemed like a good fit for his character. This might be anime original content but the art looks so good, and it feels like they are making progress before the story continues. The news about the break sucks though and I hope everyone stays safe during the hiatus

I thought it was so cool to see Leopold step out of his brothers shadow and show off that massive mana increase against the spider monster
nure_onna_ninja
Noelle having those weird daydreams about Asta in the middle of a literal volcano was hilarious, and her control over her mana skin is getting way better too
gerudo
Mereoleona bursting through the wall like the Kool Aid Man was the highlight for me and she definitely knows how to motivate the squad through fear
lana
Charmy only caring about the food even inside a giant fire mountain is hilarious because she never lets a life or death situation stop her from eating
saix
My heart sank when I saw the news about the hiatus after this episode but at least we got to see Noelle master her mana skin first
lance_328
The art looked even better here than in some of the manga episodes and the volcano setting looked so detailed during the training scenes
dodomeki_dreamer
Charmy chasing that monster just because she thought it would taste good is the most Charmy thing to happen in this entire show
billen
Mereoleona just dragging everyone to a volcano against their will is the most Black Bulls thing ever and she really does not care if they are ready or not
zanjutsu_zealot_474
Watching the squad struggle against the natural mana in the volcano is a great way to show how much further they need to go
majora
That cave exploration part at the end felt like a classic adventure and that weird spider monster was actually kind of creepy for a training episode
lelouch_lamperouge
The news about the indefinite hiatus really sucks but at least this episode gave us some good laughs with Mereoleona being a total beast
elle_hq
the whole debate about this being filler is kind of annoying since the author actually helped with these stories, and you can tell because that spider having weird man-made mana feels like it connects directly to the bigger curse stuff they have been hinting at lately, it was just cool to see the squad training at the volcano again even if Mereoleona is scary

I am actually going to miss this show so much while it is on break because this episode was such a fun way to go out, even if it was just training in a volcano. Mereoleona is easily my favorite captain and seeing her push Leopold and the others while that creepy red eyed spider monster lurked in the back was awesome and I want more
saitama_smasher
I think Noelle needs to get it together because her internal monologues about Asta are getting way too out of hand even for her
uryu_ultimate
Everyone getting dragged to a volcano by Mereoleona was great because her energy is unmatched and she makes these original episodes worth watching
tsundylan
Charmy and Gordon made the group dynamic way more entertaining by tagging along for the training session
abelferrazmiku
The red eyed spider thing in the cave was creepy and it felt like a real threat. Hopefully that ancient curse leads to a bigger fight soon
sephiroth
Seeing Leopold back in the mix and trying to keep up with Asta was the best part of the whole volcano trip
filo_feather_150
Having Asta back to being his loud and annoying self feels right after all the heavy stuff we just went through lately
EPISODE CONTEXT
Coming off 'A New Resolve,' where Asta and Yuno recommitted to getting stronger, this episode translates that determination into action by launching the Black Bulls into intensive volcano training under Mereoleona's command. Sitting at episode 132 of 170, it marks a clear preparation phase for the series' later confrontations. It directly leads into 'The Lion Awakens, Continued,' deepening the training gauntlet and the individual growth it demands from the squad.
