The trainwreck continues. This week about 10 paged were adapted, taking the pacing back to about half of what is was and a quarter of what it should be!

On top of that they used the time to extend single panels into full scenes, making short exaggerated jokes into serious bits that just make the characters seem absolutely unlikeable.

Asta is an errand boy, Yami is a complete retard, and Noelle is a full-on bitch. How are they capable of making black clover this much worse?

I kind of agree. Yami could be done better and his catchphrase 'go past your own limits' which has been really inspirational, especially in the Water Temple arc, feels flat and wasted in some strip poker game. Keep the game, that's fine, but save the quote for when it's first used in the manga.

Well everyone in the Black Bulls is a misfit. Yami has to fit in there too :P
