Chapter 380 Recap and 381 Predictions
Chapter 380, “The Brink of Despair,” saw Lucius resurrect Paladins as chimeric monsters while Yuno—empowered by Never-Never Land’s absorption—confronted him directly. Asta’s intervention provided Yuno with the Demon Dweller Sword before being teleported to an unknown location.
Industry analysts predict these developments for chapters 381-383:
- Anti-Magic Mastery: Yuno’s first use of Anti-Magic against Lucius’ time-altering spells.
- Asta’s Whereabouts: Revelation of Asta and Liebe’s teleported location, potentially near healers like Mimosa.
- Paladin Resurgence: Tactical maneuvers by revived Paladins to overwhelm remaining Magic Knights.
Manga critic Hiro Mashima (creator of Fairy Tail) noted in Anime News Network: “Tabata’s strategic escalation—giving Yuno Anti-Magic—could redefine the manga’s power dynamics before its finale.”

Must Know
What’s the Black Clover chapter 381 release date?
Officially confirmed for August 11 (international) and 12 (Japan), 2025. The triple-chapter drop (381-383) follows Weekly Shonen Jump’s seasonal publication schedule.
Where will Asta appear in chapter 381?
Speculation suggests Yuno teleported him near Mimosa or the Heart Kingdom for urgent healing. His return could shift the battle’s momentum against Lucius.
Can Yuno wield Anti-Magic effectively?
As a non-swordsman, Yuno may struggle initially. However, his wind magic combined with Anti-Magic could create unprecedented hybrid techniques against Lucius’ time magic.
Will more characters die in chapter 382?
Given Tabata’s history of high-stakes storytelling (Julius Novachrono’s “death,” the Spade Kingdom massacre), major casualties remain likely as Paladins return.
