How STRONG is Asta?

[@Fireheart310]

Actually Tabata sensei supervised the film, and it is actually canon to the Black Clover story-line! Apparently he wanted to include this in the manga, but decided against it but it later was used as the film we have today. Canonically, it takes place between Vol.23 and Vol.24 - the end of the Elf Saga, and the beginning of the Spade Saga, during the 6 months time skip. iirc those who went to see the first screenings of the film got Vol.23.5 which contains the backstories for the 4 previous WKs.

[@arturocardona140]

This is a really solid 'well ackchually'

[@el_th0r546]

Yup, it even shows things like Vanessa making Asta's new and improved headband, and newer techniques like Death Thrust aren't used at all in the film, and there's nothing at all really that contradicts things in the anime or manga anyway. I really like how they handled it, putting it in the time skip before asta first goes to the spade kingdom, during that period where he was still getting buff. One of my favorite things was that Conrad's appearance in the movie was actually written in well and again, poses no contradictions in the story that I'm aware of at least.

The film was still honestly amazing and a part of my plan.

​@@el_th0r546It does fit but with some minor plot holes. As Asta has his demon arm which happens in the Dante fight meaning both William and Yami should be captured. But it actually fits rather well besides that minor thing. And also that Nacht is shown in the film giving power. So there are some contradictions but very minor.

yes but no. Yūki Tabata literally said: "its a "why didnt you do this in the manga" story. So in a way its non-canon to the manga while being canon to the universe. So tbh at most i'd say its more along the lines of semi-canon. its possible that both the events might be true but the story may be exaggerated for the movies sake.

[@GB-kw8vg]

Tabata was giving out 23.5 volume at the theaters in Japan as a token of appreciation to his fan base. He stated that the plot is meant to fit into the manga canon. Not that it is canon, he wanted continuity to hold true but its still a anime original. A google search of his comments on it is all it takes to inform yourself.

For black clover it's really easy to give high ranking mostly because of Dorothy lol. She is just casually summoning moons and her dream dimension which was stated to be infinite by Luck and somewhat reafirmed by elf possesing Dorothy at the time, got destroyed by Yami's dimension slash. Also Salamander's feats from the databook make it easier to give very high scaling.

Another fun fact about anti magic, it seems to have the ability to memic the properties of magic. Many of asta's abilities, are all simply anti sword magic, or an anti magic version of Licht's spells. Particularly everything Asta does with the demon dweller sword, is something Licht can do with it.

[@phantom9831]

Well...for the dweller sword, it's mostly because it's how the sword "works" it can share the power or abilities of its holder with the ones who are bounded with him, explaining why Licht could use the reincarned elf's magic, and why Asta was able to share the anti-magic properties But you're right, Asta tried mimicking others magic with his own magic (well at least when he could, like the spirit of zephyr and Licht's sword magic inspired him the Black Divider, or the mana skin becoming an anti-mana skin), because even if it negates magic, it seems to work mostly like a regular magic, a magic that negate other magic, and requires physical strength and not mana

[@JDWalker495]

This may be a stretch but you could probably calc asta's attack power higher since the black clover world, due to being full of mana, has evolved to be somewhat magic resistant. So the power to destroy a continent in their world using mana, may be significantly higher than it would be in our manaless world.

[@Infinite8blue]

Same case in series like Solo leveling and Bleach environmental damage is dependent if the world have natural resistance in which a captain class shinigami is threat to the world of the living but in in the soul society and Heuco Mundo which is made up reishi they never have worry too much about collateral damages and in Solo leveling the Rulers need to slowly imbue the human world with mana so it can survive the upcoming battle otherwise the planet would be completely destroyed. I just noticed in at of cross battles they never take this into consideration.

Which was calculated between multi continental or small moon level!

Broku72 is somewhere rolling around on his bed, screaming in agony. The downplay of Asta is crazy. SPOILERS If we assume that Demon Licht was going to wipe humanity with his Energy, and Demon Licht understood that he gets outscaled by Zagred, then Zagred is continental to Multi-continental, as he'd need to wipe all life on the planet solo. Asta kills him before he gets Berserker Asta. That means that Black Asta should insta-kill Lucifero, despite Lucifero being the strongest Devil in Hell. It makes more sense that Lucifero is Planetary, since his presence transcended all power in the verse until that point. He was stomping amped Captains, yet still lose to TDU Asta.

[@thedeadmemetrain8757]

Between Salamander's Ocean Vaporisation feat being calced at 80% of moon level (so high-end multi-cont) and the energy of Demon Licht *walking* being put in multi-continental ranges as well (combined with the fact that Reve was able to make a fake Dorothy who was casually creating moon-sized objects alongside an actual moon), you can pretty easily get Zagred to planetary. And that's if you don't use Reve creating and infinite sized realm for High-Uni part 1 BC (which gets even more solid in part 2 and with the movie).

[@Hmmmmmm929]

Slight correction (I’m only four minutes in, but whatever): Arcane Stage mages aren’t necessarily above the Zero Stage.

Or the fact that Hell is confirmed to be a separate timespace from the material world (arguably, each layer of hell is a separate timespace considering the diagram we see of Hell in Yami vs Dante is taken directly from an interpretation of Hell in irl Jewish Demonology that has each layer of Hell as a separate timespace), with Lucifero fusing with the Qliphoth tree that connects each layer of hell to the material world, making the Qliphoth (and the Lucifero that fused with it) 4D (Uni+ in Lucifero's case bc it doesn't add an actual extra spacial dimension to his body but still).

[@thedeadmemetrain8757]

@gucciusmaximusi5099 I do have the base Dante calc, but it's a google doc link and putting a link in the comments of a yt video can be kinda dodgey, innit? It's based on the arc that light is bent by the sun and how much force is exerted by the sun's gravity, and then calcing the difference between the Sun's arc and the arc that Dante causes each of Gauche's beams to bend, and then multiplying the force of the sun's gravity bending light by the difference between it and Dante's angle to get the AP. Tho if you want an easier scale to explain (and one that doesn't require me to send any links and potentially get banned from any comments sections): Dorothy is able to create Glamour World, which is an infinite sized realm (Luck states that it's infinite, Magna replies that "that's impossible" to which Reve responds that "In Glamour World, the impossible is possible"). Later in the Anime Cannon Captains Battle (which is still cannon to the Manga btw) Yami is able to destroy Glamour World with Dimension Slash Equinox, meaning both he and Dorothy are High Universal (sidenote, to destroy an infinite realm, DSE would have had to move at infinite speed, and Dorothy dodges it, so she and anyone who scales to her would have infinite speed). We also see that Edward can reduce his surroundings to Absolute 0 (which requires infinite work), Princia is stated to be able to make infinite soldiers in the Light Novel for the movie (Volume 23.5), and Dante creates a Black Hole (which requires infinite pressure). Dante also has 3 seperate Infinite Mana statements, so... Yeah: High Uni Black Clover XD And that's not even getting into Zennon creating Hyperspace or Lucifero fusing with the Qliphoth (a 4D construct), OR the Paladins moving in Yuno's Neverland (that stops time) and Conrad moving in an Astaroth-amped Julius' time-orbs which stop time inside AND nullify power (aka Inaccessible speed).

Strongest new gen is crazy since shinra right there

[@cuzoh7007]

the bluth frozen banana playlist crazy

[@japanda2395]

You should a video like this about Deku, & Tanjiro

[@farb6780]

it is canon because there is a light novel for it that came out alongside the movie. and tabata was the one who came up with the original idea for the movie

[@baritone4538]

Finally more black clover

[@zenone9698]

You should do video on Black Clover inspirations.

[@apindakut]

For all those wondering, the movie is canon to the manga and would be under volume 23.5

[@anime_world_order]

Hi Nick, how about doing a video about Yuno and his star magic 👌cause it's hella confusing 😓

[@rannytatu]

if asta could have controlled the abillity to use magic with his sword, he would be just too OP because he would be able to use all of yuno's spells, noelle spells and etc... and with gauche abillity to also clone things, i think he would clone asta and each asta will fight a different cloned lucius, and asta and yuno will fight the original lucius, and great video btw you realy explained everything and showed proof and stated FACTS.

[@bvisneaujr]

The defeat of a ancient demon size of the clover kingdom, one hit K.O

[@heathdavis8658]

Pls do more black clover content

[@groudon1326]

Movie is canon and takes place days before the spade arc as per the time in volume 23.5 written by tabata himself

[@cochino9429]

Asta is not to much faster than lite, being 500+x faster than is insane statement

[@fuffythegreat]

Well Asta is Faster than Licht during the elf arc. Licht is faster than light. In the spade arc the Dark disciples are many times faster than this asta. However by the end of the spade arc , Asta is at least 100,000 times stronger and faster than the dark disciples. And current Asta is at least 20 times stronger now. So thats probably how.

[@S-_-KING]

When you said Yami Echika I was confused then I realised I forgot Tami just the family name.

[@olisaiweanya7527]

Talk about dark triad next.

[@mandod.7882]

If there is someone I can truly believe in making pretty accurate vs videos… is The weeb comander! I hope he does a series.

[@sasukethelast9515]

It's not accurate at all lol

[@WarFox7012]

Pretty dang strong let’s just get that out of the way first.

[@vincerafaelcastro5778]

What I think the reason why Asta was getting bodied by Ichika is because Asta lost to Lucius making him unable to protect Sister Lily, this gave him insecurity which Ryuya later pointed out to Asta. Asta was doubting himself which basically nerfs him.

[@ayastia3755]

Everytime I thought you were done saying 'how hard he punchy'...

[@brandon9801]

You're saying to give the kid with multi-continental attack power, massively FTL+ speed and multi-continental durability a gun. I'm sure that's a bad idea, even for his allies. We trust the kid but I'm still worried about what would happen if he missed.

[@rannytatu]

btw just saying massively FTL+ is just MFTL+ and yeah thats not a good idea to give a kid a gun, he is already strong enough.

[@jams1070]

Honestly…i knew it all along at the spoiler lol my heart

[@gamersunite3555]

Nick can you make a video on ranking the black bulls or have you already done it?

[@davidadetun8029]

Could you talk about Kingdom? Not the anime, the manga. Its legit a top5 all time contender.

[@TheKitchenSponge]

Depending on how you take some feats Asta can go from planetary to more the high universal

[@unstabl-3]

I feel that they tried to place it in between the manga and anime so what they show can be used since asta is way stronger now than he was in the movie.

[@kevingoss8559]

Wish the movie was canon cause lord knows when the show will start again

[@AgSenpaii]

why is this guy twitching so much

[@Chikara_Ketsugo]

Asta using anti-bullets is crazy 😭😭

[@eddieblile6318]

Asta, use your Antimagic-Antiaircraft and win this fight for us!

[@barbarianbijuu]

Asta sensing gokus ki would be funny

[@Primerival09]

Since Dorothy alone was able to create an infinite space with stars literally And was backed up even further when she opened a rift in this same infinite plane that contained another universe in it And she goes ahead to recreate this infinite dimension multiple times as it got destroyed by people stronger than her Julius at base was able to wrap pocket dimensions that was supposed to trap him And this even goes further When manifesting lucifero was able to fuse himself with the world tree to holding multiple dimensions in it and asta was able to use infinite slash to separate him from the tree and destroyed the tree in the process Lucius plan is to fuse the world with the after life and the under world once his transformation is complete which literally puts him at low multiversal (low balled) Yuno on the other other hand was powerful enough to beat Lucius (clone) who scales higher than 100% Lucifero which puts him a low (universal ) Each paladin were stated to be relatively stronger than 100% lucifero Asta was able to beat two of them with trying which relatively scales him at base to ( low universe) at base literally With infinite speed on par with never land I don't know where all this low ball is coming from but asta is definitely onshoting natsu Which his time hax was literally based on emotional amp And it's literally irrelevant in a versus battle and The speed and power and power scaling in black clover is broken I see many people around tryna low-ball all this feats But it doesn't count since it has already been started mutiple time in the anime,manga and even in the databook

[@phillipfrost6770]

I swear there are so many people who downplay just how strong asta is Especially when people imply that he is only powerful during his 5 minutes Despite of the higher ends he can scale way past star level in base...

[@thedeadmemetrain8757]

Base Dante's (casual) lightbend feat against Gauche has been calced at low-end Solar System level, and we know that even 1% Devil Power is more than their base thanks to Noelle referring to a 1% increase as "phenomenal" against Vanica, so bare minimum 100% Devil Power is 100x Base. Base Asta after his fight w Naalith is able to neg Devil Lolo's self-destruct, which we know is fuelled by curse power of the one using the Exploding Life spell (Vanica states that outright when talking about detonating her Dark Deciples), so that Exploding Life from Devil Lolo should scale to Megicula - the same Megicula who revived 100 Dark Deciples and brought each of them to "the lowest level to be considered a Supreme Devil", the same language used to describe the 100% Triad. Aka, a fatigued Base Asta from mid-way though the Spade Invasion is bare minimum 100x the baseline for Solar System level. And this a lowball that misses several other amps and doesn't go over anything post Megicula.

[@micealwebstermusic]

Now do a vid scaling asta vs yuno. Who has the best shot at wizard king right now?

[@Archetype_Earthy]

Hmm interesting

[@sasukethelast9515]

Clearly Yuno does asta hasn't done anything

[@JrockProject1]

"they are going to give asta a gun at this point" so you mean asta is gonna have a blasta
