Black Clover fans are eager to find out what's in store for Chapters 379 and 380. But before we dive into the potential twists and turns, it's worth revisiting everything that happened in the intense Chapter 378 .
Black Clover Chapter 378 , titled Friction , delivered another battle featuring Asta and Yuno joining forces against Lucius Zogratis . Even after absorbing the magical powers of the Dark Triad brothers—Body, Blood, and Bones—Lucius was unable to stop the Clover Kingdom duo's advance.
During the confrontation, Lucius was surprised to see how Asta and Yuno, despite representing opposing forces, worked as a perfect team. This synergy allowed the two to surpass expectations and even Lucius's prophecy. Asta managed to sever the villain's arms, and Yuno finished off the attack with the powerful Saint Spirit of Boreas . However, even after the combined blow, Lucius appears not to have been completely defeated.
What to expect from chapters 379?
Everything indicates that Lucius will return to action in the coming chapters. There are also signs that he may have a new trick up his sleeve. In previous chapters, we saw Lucius absorb magic from his brothers, accompanied by the sound of a heartbeat—an element that reappeared at the end of chapter 378.
This raises the possibility that Lucius will yet again resort to the powers of the Dark Triad , making the battle against Asta and Yuno even more intense.

As announced, chapters 379 and 380 will be available on May 2, 2025, on MANGA Plus . The publication will feature a total of 48 pages, including a special color page—and once again, Asta and his allies promise plenty of action.
