With the next round of chapters approaching, Black Clover are eager to find out what's in store for chapters 379 and 380. But before we delve into the possible plot twists, it's worth recapping everything that happened in the intense chapter 378 .
Chapter 378 of Black Clover , titled Friction , delivered another battle, highlighting Asta and Yuno joining forces against Lucius Zogratis . Even after absorbing the magical powers of the Dark Triad brothers—Body, Blood, and Bone—Lucius couldn't stop the Clover Kingdom duo's advance.
During the confrontation, Lucius was surprised to see how Asta and Yuno, despite representing opposing forces, functioned as a perfect team. This synergy allowed them to surpass expectations and even Lucius's prophecy. Asta managed to cut off the villain's arms, and Yuno finished the attack with the powerful Saint Spirit of Boreas . However, even after the combined attack, Lucius seemed not to have been completely defeated.
What to expect from chapter 379?
Everything indicates that Lucius will return to action in the next chapters. There are still 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 once again resort to the powers of the Dark Triad , making the battle against Asta and Yuno even more intense.
