It seems what I've learned from reading so many Chinese series is that the peak of the cool aesthetic in Chinese comics seems to be series 1-3 high tier Yu-Gi-Oh monsters, just a s*** ton of skeletons and horns and dragon pieces and claws and metal armor vaguely in the shape of people.

It would be so funny if any series like this just had somebody full send and just kill the villain immediately like "what? he was guilty! I don't want to give him any more time to scheme so I started blasting!"

He stands on business in the most literal sense, he's literally constantly standing to get his business up.

And every single time it starts to evolve into "well I have to kill all those innocents, they know the guilty people, and I can't look weak" which, to be fair, was sort of the mentality of the various Chinese governments through most of its history. But is always such a weird thing to see in anything set in any type of modern times.

So many of these protagonists would avoid most of their problems if they just f****** explained literally anything to anyone they travel with instead of just hoping they obey them on the faith that they're just the best. That of course won't solve the problem of "muscle head stubborn asses that don't listen" which is the first type of enemy in any one of these series, but it would very quickly solve the problem of the "obey the strong bully the weak" type enemies which are the second type of enemies in these types of series.

The fact that no matter what the series is about or what the setting is a Chinese series will throw cultivation into it as well, dog you already had a power system why are you adding cultivation to it?

That kind of just becomes tyrannids it doesn't it?

How does he know all of that s*** when the first part of the premise was that he explicitly didn't know s*** about the world or who he was other than the very basics? I don't know why I'm asking this s***... it's a Chinese series ...they just do s*** like this sometimes.

I love a detective story that comes from such a petty place.

"Are you doing this because you believe in Justice?"
"Fuck no! that rat bastard stole my work! You want to kill people be original about it you slime!"

Hard disagree vamp lady, short hair looked better,
Hard agree Mc, Ponytail looks good.

Foolish bandits, think with your cock -die by the cock.

(As an aside they kept calling them roosters but they lay eggs and they appeared to be female chickens? I guess magic chickens are just f****** weird? )

"that's my secret...I'm always horny"

Dream Works? wow they've really been hustling since Shrek.

the universal truth that ground grappling just looks like clothes on fucking is once more acknowledged.

Actually going back to it cuz I just realized it, this is the exact plot progression of literally every single Arc of dragon Ball z, everyone's pressed and fighting for their lives the whole arc, a bunch of people die over time - there's horrific injuries and it is all so they can press the grand reset button at the end of the ark and undo all the bad parts minus one villain, I think throughout that entire series the only good guy that stayed dead was Android 16 and Goku and even then he still came back after a Time skip. So I think my brain may be default it Black clover into the dragon Ball category of story where it's mostly just about hanging out with these characters I like while a bunch of predictable rad s*** happens.

I mean we lose the wizard King , he did turn into dust, but I do see your point.

I don't get how they got this far in the series and didn't clock that this is what the series is like, this series has been on the exact same timing since chapter one, there's been no Mix-Ups, switch-ups or counterplay, it has been boilerplate shonen from day one either you're on board or you're not.

I don't understand why people are saying everyone's resolve and sacrifices didn't matter, if everyone weren't locked in this whole time they would not have gotten to the point where they could catch the dub so completely that they killed the evil guy's soul without killing the time wizard that can negate all of the horrific death that has occurred.
More importantly this is Black clover, this isn't Ju jutsu kaizen or chainsaw man where you can expect something better than this, this series opened with a kid saying "he's going to be wizard King despite having no magic" and has functioned on exactly that level and energy the entire time! what next? are you going to get mad at a Godzilla movie for having poorly written human characters and not enough monster fights? listen to yourself! this is shounen! This series was always going to be a b+ at best! I'm not going to begrudge them doing a thing I could predict them doing 30 chapters ago, the series has always functioned on the power of friendship, hype and bullshit powers, I'm not going to damn them just because they combined all three things to formulate this ending instead of having a depressing ass half the kingdom is destroyed ending.

Never get mad at mid for being a mid, especially when it never once told you it could be anything but mid, and as far as mid goes this is perfectly executed.
