Vanica is the bitch I REALLY want to see get taken down.

Lolo's flashback, Noelle power up
https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1009390 -
We knew if Yuno got a wind spirit, then Noelle was going to get a water spirit. Undine or something like her would appears somehow.
So we've got Wind, Water, and Fire, but where's Earth?
-
Do they even have an earth magic character in the main or secondary cast?
-
Sol from the Blue Rose is the only one I can think of who uses Earth Magic. I suppose you could think of Charlotte's Briar Magic as a type of Earth magic, since plants grow from the earth.

I forgot about Sol. But she seems a tad too weak to be given a spirit.

Vanica Stab count: 3
https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1009391 -
Maybe it's because she's a mom, but man Acier has some big boobs. And I just noticed Noelle has a halo.
-
Damn, I'm jealous of those boobs!
I always enjoy Noelle chapters. Obviously I just enjoy seeing girls who get to be fighters and also have their own character arcs and rivals but her personality is so much fun and it feels like I'm being called out by her tsundere-ness. :lol:

Powerful demonic homoeroticism
https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1009392 -
I admit, I didn't picture Megicula being a loli (and what a fitting end for Vanica. Bitch.).
That color spread of Noelle at the beginning struck me as being kinda like a slutty-looking Sailor Moon.
-
It's cute girl chapter this week, wow. I hope Noelle gets to get this win. I'm so hyped by her arc so far.
-
This manga pleases me greatly. I can't think of too many recent shonen series where the lead girl feels appropriately equal to the main guys. And also where side characters get to shine. Still feeling happy about Magna's fight.
Vanica was probably the most annoying villain. Whole lotta nothing with these 3 Spade royals so far.
-
I really like that aspect. Of course, I just like seeing girls do different types of things but I also believe that it is important for kids of all genders to see women in roles of coolness.
-
Ouch. That looked like it hurt.
-
Hmm….De-powering suddenly worries me. As in, will Noelle get a double win? Or is someone gonna have to save her.
-
Well we haven't seen Patry ever since he arrived with the other mages

Gaja chapter
https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1009394 -
Gaja used hyper beam. It was super effective.
-
Despair and then Asta
https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1009653 -
Mmm…not sure I like Asta butting in on Noelle's fight. Hopefully this at least leads to their relationship developing.
-
Noelle was about to get killed. Hadn't Asta shown up, she'd be dead, Lolopechka would have exploded and the demon would be resurrected. Though yes, maybe that could be preferable development.

It was written that way. Just…don't write it that way.
-
maybe Noelle will team up with Asta in the fight
-
Best case scenario at this point is Asta giving Noelle the opening she needs to deliver the critical blows to win.
-
It was written that way. Just…don't write it that way.
She was already running by fumes before curse started eroding her body away. Maybe she could have awoken some new ability, but the point was to show her stubborness un willingness to keep fighting in spite she being in completely hopeless situation with no way out. If she had any chance to survive that then it'd take away from that strong character moment.
-
You can still not write a female needing a male to save her in a magazine historically edited by misogynist cis men.
-
C'mon, my chicken wings almost can't handle that level of trolling.
-
If Magna could have a win, then Noelle too. Or at least make it more a team effort instead of having her losing and Asta getting there to save her.
-
Noelle just needed a boost. If she doesn't beat Megicula then we are seriously robbed.
-

She just destroyed Vanica a few chapters ago.
-
I'd stop reading if she had just beaten a devil of the highest order on her own, even if she were fresh.
-
To avoid Megicula to fully manifest we need to remove the curse in Lolo, Asta can remove curses. So he was needed.
One of the strong suits of BC is that Tabata is not afraid of do team battles and he really does them well. So I expect Noelle and Asta to fight Megi, while I patiently wait for Gordon to come with his family's secret reverse curse magic to weaken Megi. -
I hope asta can only keep lolopechika in check and nothing more. Leave this win to noelle.
-
I expect her brother to join the fight as well.

Conviction and [hide]Confession[/hide]
https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1009662 -
Ooh. I like this outcome. I was a bit worried there.
-
Please Tabata, give this poor girl her confession next chapter. :wub:
-
She probably won't say or do anything about it till after the fight since that might distract Asta. It would be funny since as far as we know he's still dead set on marrying that nun.
-
I'm assuming that the fight will end in #303 or #304. I just hope Tabata doesn't drag their feet…
-

Better for her not to say anything until the final battle is over and done with. And better for Asta to just get over the nun since she has repeatedly told him she's not interested.

Big bro join's vendetta
https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1009663 -
Finally a brother and sister battle team.

-
Damn, this is some best stuff I read in a while. This chapter had it all and so well executed.
-
The bitch is dead
https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1009664 -
I didn’t tear up but the good, watery feelings were right on my lap. That’s the good shonen shit alright
-
A general comment about the last few chapters: Tabata is solidifying himself as the best action scenes artist in Jump right now.
The amount of details in some of those spreads and the overall way of drawing some clear choregraphy even though plenty of things are going on at the same time is impressive, especially for a weekly manga.
BC might be one of the rare cases where I don't constantly go "I need to wait the anime to figure out WTH is going on in this battle scene". Biggest culprit being MHA.
