Black Clover chapter 376 recap

Black Clover chapter 376, titled Suhne (Atonement), saw Yami Sukehiro fight his former partner Morgen Faust. Just as the Black Bull Captain started struggling, his sister Ichika Yami prepared to join the fight. However, before joining the fight, she spoke to Nacht, encouraging him to join the fight and not let his Captain struggle by himself.

Thus, moments after Ichika and Sukehiro joined forces, Nacht Faust joined them with his newly attained four-way devil union. While Morgen Faust remained confident about his strength, Nacht managed to slip behind him using his Shadow Magic and dealt a decisive blow.

What to expect from Black Clover chapter 377 & 378?

Black Clover chapter 377 & 378 will most likely showcase an exchange between Nacht and Morgen Faust. This should help Nacht put an end to the torment of having killed his brother in the past.

However, considering that up till now the manga has immediately switched to another fighter after a Paladin is defeated, there is a high chance that the manga will switch its focus to other characters. With several Black Bull members still fighting the Lucius clones, the manga could switch its focus to them, namely Vanessa Enoteca, Grey, Gauche & Marie Adlai, Gordon Agrippa, Finral Roulacase, Secre Swallowtail, and Zora Idealle.
