What to expect from Black Clover Chapter 358?

Yuno vs. Lucius battle continues

Black Clover Chapter 358 may reveal the aftermath of Yuno's attack on Lucius in the previous chapter. The battle between Yuno and Lucius continues in "The Final Slash," and although Yuno manages to cut off Lucius' horn, it's unclear if the horn will regenerate. Fans may also get more information about the same stage and its effect on body part regeneration.

Mereoleona's fate hangs in the balance

Another significant development that fans can expect in Black Clover Chapter 358 is the fate of Mereoleona, the Former Crimson Lion Interim Captain, who was last seen in a perilous situation. In the previous chapter, Mereoleona was preparing to face Paladin Morris with her brigade, but she lost her left arm towards the end of the chapter. Fans speculate that Fuegeleon and his Fire Spirit Salamander may come to Mereoleona's aid, leading to the possibility of a new Saint Stage.

The consequences of Jack the Ripper's final attack

Furthermore, fans may also witness the consequences of Jack the Ripper's final attack, where he slices the ground in half before passing away and his grimoire vanishing. It's unclear what impact this event will have, but it's likely to have consequences for the characters in the upcoming chapter.

Leopold's return

Finally, there's the possibility of Leopold's return to the manga, which fans have been eagerly waiting for. There's a lot to look forward to in Black Clover Chapter 358, although it's difficult to predict what will happen precisely.

The spoilers and raw scans for the chapter are expected to be available on April 20, 2023, which is usually a few days before the release date.

What happened in Black Clover Chapter 357?

In Black Clover Chapter 357, Yuno and Lucius continue their battle, which is titled "The Final Slash." Lucius easily stops Yuno's Spirit of Zephyr attack and knows that Yuno cannot maintain his Neverland spell for long. Despite seriously injuring Lucius, Yuno cannot harm him as long as Lucius remains expressionless. Yuno manages to cut off Lucius' horn, but it is unclear if it will regenerate. The same stage concept seems to work on Lucius, making it difficult for him to regenerate. In other events, Jack the Ripper uses his most dangerous attack before passing away, causing his grimoire to vanish. Mereoleona is also shown to be in danger.
