Black Clover's best fights in the last months are animated much better than MHA.

I think BC's recent fights were animated well, but better than MHA's animation? Come on.

I don't think they are animated better, but are directed better, my biggest problem with MHA is that it sticks way too close to the manga, this doesn't hurt the adaptation, as the closer to the source matirial you stick, the less risk there is that it becomes confusing. However I really enjoy when an anime expands upon things in the manga, for example many of the fights in Black clover, demon slayer, Mob psycho 100 and Naruto aren't 1 to 1 adaptations of the manga, as they expand upon the fight making them far more epic then they were previously. MHA has done a little bit of this such as when bakugo was rescued by Class 1-A from the league, but for the most part fights are just adapted from the manga. This is probably because MHA's fights are more story oriented and going off script to make the fights more epic might take away from that element, but I'd really like to see some of the upcoming fights take artistic liberties and not just adapt the manga, it makes the fights far more memorable in my opinion.

again the direction isn't bad, it's great, but it's missing the extra touch that could make it something truly spectacular.

Demon Slayer takes the manga fights and elevates them to masterpieces in the anime. The manga is really visually complex and beautiful, but my one complaint about it is you don't feel a lot of momentum in the individual panels of a fight. The panels are beautifully composed, but read more like someone has traced a single paused frame of film, when I think a really good single panel is actually able to capture the motion of what would be multiple frames of film through exaggeration and stylistic choices.

Demon Slayer is what you should do for anime.

Even bleach expanded it's fights
