Black Clover chapter 380 recap

Black Clover chapter 380, titled The Brink of Despair, saw Yuno Grinberryall take over the fight against Lucius Zogratis. While Lucius had brought the Paladins back as chimeric monsters, given the development, Yuno needed to defeat Lucius as soon as possible. Hence, he absorbed the Never-Never Land spell back to himself and charged towards Lucius.

During this fight, Asta called out to Yuno, granting him his Demon-Dweller Sword, and assuring him he would catch up to him. Yuno teleported Asta and Liebe away and faced to fight Lucius while wielding Asta's sword. This development saw half of Yuno's body get covered with Anti-Magic.

Black Clover chapter 381, 382, & 383 will most likely focus on the fight between Yuno Grinberyall and Lucius Zogratis. This was the first time Yuno was going to use Anti-Magic. Hence, the manga may shed light on how Yuno's Wind and Star Magic would work when paired with Anti-Magic. Not to mention, Yuno also had the power of the Wind Spirit. Hence, the Anti-Magic could give Yuno a big boost in power.

While the manga did not reveal where Yuno teleported Asta and Liebe, chances are that he teleported them to Mimosa to get them healed. Hence, it could also focus on Mimosa as she does her best to help Asta and Liebe get back to the battlefield.
