QUICK TAKES

Asta using Ki to track Valtos felt like such a huge leap for him, and I was so hyped to see him actually pull it off after all that intense training with Yami. That final anti-magic punch felt like a full-circle moment, he absolutely earned that win and it just gets me pumped for what else he'll learn!

You see Gauche finally using his brain for something other than Marie and that mirror reflection trick against Licht was actually a massive play for the Black Bulls
guts_the_swordsman_189
The animation jump during the Yami and Licht fight was night and day compared to the earlier episodes and seeing them clash at that speed was incredible
chaos
My brain still cant process that Yami just stood there and absorbed the light magic and the way he uses dark magic is way too cool compared to how villains usually have it
candice_corona
I never thought light magic would look so scary, but Yami using his dark magic to pull it in and protect everyone was easily my highlight of the episode

Yami's thoughts during his battle with an all-powerful being were so unreal and caught me off guard. He barely cares even when fighting an otherworldly enemy?? The scenes with Theresa were also unnecessarily scary! Allat drama for nothing

Holy peakk, everything going down with Yami and Licht's confrontation. It feels like the series saved their entire budget for the action sequences here. It doesn't even look like the same anime as 3 episodes ago with the kidnapped children thing.

The battle with Asta and the portal guy didn't go in the direction I expected at all! He just flat out punched him in the face, it amazes me sometimes at how indifferent Asta can be to the 'laws' of magic surrounding this world.

Valtos thought he had the upper hand with those portals but Asta just shutting him down with raw physical movement and that new ki sense was a great turn
sado_chadian_492
I honestly didn't think I would ever like Gauche because of the whole sister obsession thing, but his choice to listen to Yami and return to the battlefield really changed my mind. Seeing him use that mirror magic to reflect Licht's massive light spell back at him was such a smart play, and the animation for the Dark Cloaked Avidya Slash looked great
hikari_horaki
Asta watching Yami and realizing how much further he has to go feels so real and learning about ki is going to be huge for his growth
kittan_bachika_188
My heart actually softened for Gauche when he decided to turn back and help Theresa and the kids instead of just running away with Marie
colress
I keep thinking about how Yami just forces Asta to grow by throwing him into the deep end during that Licht fight, and honestly the concept of Ki makes so much sense for someone like Asta, who has zero magic. Watching him finally react to those light speed attacks made me realize how much he is actually improving as a knight.

Yami just staying totally calm while Licht moves at the speed of light is crazy and he makes dark magic look like the strongest thing ever
sk8head
Yami using dark magic to just suck up all those light attacks from Licht was so cool and he really showed why he is a captain in this fight
miyuki_shirogane
Asta using his ki to read Valtos and shut down that spatial magic was smart because he finally found a way to bridge that massive power gap between him and the captains
narutorunner99
Licht really does feel like a massive threat with that light magic and I think his views on the kingdom make things way more interesting than just some bad guy
piko_pixel
Seeing dark magic and light magic clash like that was a visual treat and Yami holding his own against the leader shows why he is a captain
gino_weinberg_176
I was not expecting the animation to look this good during the big fight and those light beams looked so fluid and sharp
kazuma_klever_147
Licht seems way too strong but Yami just standing there absorbing everything with his katana is the coolest thing this show has done in a while
EPISODE CONTEXT
