00:00Threatened by a ruthless demon, humanity was on the brink of destruction.
00:12All seemed lost until a lone mage stepped forward and took up the fight.
00:23After his triumph, he was hailed as the Wizard King, and his story became legend.
00:30Asta and Yuno have arrived at the royal capital of the Clover Kingdoms.
00:36The magic knights are revered throughout the land.
00:39The exam to determine who is worthy enough to join their ranks is about to begin.

02:42Just a minute and you can get it while it's hot.
02:44Oh, that looks so good!
02:46Wow! Awesome!
02:48Check out all these swords and stuff!
02:50Oh my!
02:52This place is a far cry from the village, huh?
02:58Hey, is that where the Wizard King lives?
03:02Probably the country's king, too.
03:05Pretty nice!
03:06Especially since it's gonna be my castle someday!
03:09My castle, you mean?
03:11Nah! I might let you live there, though!
03:15If you're lucky, I'll let you live there.
03:19Hush! You're alright, sweetie, don't cry!
03:22Come on, we need to hurry back and get the shop ready.
03:25It reminds me of everyone back at the church.
03:29I feel sorry for them.
03:30It's gotta be really lonely without me there.
03:34Yeah.
03:35Hey, wait up!
03:36You know!
03:40Peace and quiet at last.
03:46Things sure are nice around here with Asta gone.
03:49You don't mean that, Nash.
03:51What? Of course I do!
03:54They'll be arriving at the Royal Capital about now.
03:56I feel so nervous for them.
03:59I hope the exam goes well.
04:01Yeah, me too.
04:03Huh?
04:04I didn't say anything!
04:07Asta?
04:08You know?
04:09Good luck, boys.
04:11So, where's this exam happening, anyway?
04:19Over there, I think.
04:21What is that?
04:23Grilled violet steak on a stick!
04:25It was super cheap!
04:27Come and get your grilled violet steak fresh off the fire,
04:30raised humanely and sourced responsibly.
04:33You want a bite?
04:34I'll pass.
04:35Chock full of nutrients that'll keep you going!
04:38Yeah, sure.
04:39Come on.
04:40It's this way.
04:40Mm-hmm.
04:41Good luck on the exam!
04:59The global kingdom's rising stars!
05:02The future of the kingdom is right, Aaron!
05:05You can do it!
05:06I won't let you down!
05:07Don't worry!
05:08I don't know him.
05:09I don't know him.
05:10There we go.
05:16You're number 163.
05:18Well, next?
05:20Name's Yuno.
05:21From Hajj.
05:23Yuno from Hajj, alright.
05:25And your grimoire?
05:28Four-leaf clover?
05:30What?
05:30You've heard the rumors, right?
05:32Hey, look.
05:33It's that grimoire.
05:34No way!
05:35A four-leaf clover?
05:36Oh, wow!
05:38Right.
05:39You're number 164.
05:40Next.
05:42I came here from Hajj, too.
05:44I'm Asta.
05:45And here's my grimoire!
05:46Ah, not really in great shape, is it?
05:50Are you sure that's a grimoire?
05:53What?
05:53Of course I'm sure!
05:54Come on, take a good look!
05:55There!
05:56See?
05:56See?
05:57All right, back off, please.
06:01You're number 165.
06:02Yes!
06:05Woohoo!
06:05Coming all this way from some no-name village.
06:10Quite motivated, aren't they?
06:19Starting to get nervous now.
06:21Hey, what's up with these crazy birds?
06:23Anti-birds.
06:25Mainstays of the exam hall.
06:26What, these things?
06:28Everybody knows the lower your magic power, the more birds you attract.
06:32Yeah, whatever.
06:33Hey, look.
06:35See that guy?
06:36There are no birds anywhere near him.
06:39Yeah, it's that guy from before.
06:42Which one?
06:43He's from this podunk village called Hajj or something.
06:46I don't know how he got a four-leaf clover, grimoire.
06:49What?
06:49No way.
06:50You're kidding.
06:54Ha ha ha!
06:56One of us is gonna be the wizard kid.
06:58This is where our legend begins.
07:00Right, you know?
07:03He's not really serious.
07:05Is he?
07:06I've been training for this the last six months.
07:09Wait till you see what I can do-
07:11Why are they trying to kill me?
07:15What the hell?
07:17Poor schmuck.
07:18Not the nicest welcome to the big city.
07:21Get the hell away from me!
07:23AHHHHH!
07:27Phew, guess they finally had enough.
07:29Hey there.
07:30Sorry about that.
07:32You got a death wish, boy.
07:33Who is this guy?
07:35He's got the eyes of a killer.
07:38That neck?
07:39He's just gonna have necks, that thing?
07:40And the way he carries himself.
07:43How can we be the same age?
07:44Wait, hold on.
07:46No judging a book by its cover.
07:48Just be nice and friendly to him.
07:51Wow, you look really old for your age.
07:54Must have had a rough life, huh?
07:56Ha ha!
07:56Looks like I was right about that death wish.
08:03AHHHHH!
08:04This book's got the right cover!
08:06Finally, there you are.
08:08What are you doing out here anyway?
08:10Right now, getting ready to wring this kid's neck.
08:13Ha ha ha ha!
08:14Hey, is that who I think it is?
08:16Yeah, it's him.
08:17That's Finrail Rulacase, wielder of the rare spatial magic.
08:21And who is this lovely lady?
08:24The womanizer who spends more time flirting than doing his job.
08:28And that's Gordon Agrippa.
08:30He's a hex magic expert.
08:32Word is that he's got some issues with communicating.
08:35Plus, he's scary.
08:36Hey now, stop!
08:39That won't do it all.
08:41A squad captain can't kill an examinee.
08:43Why'd you even come down here in the first place?
08:46Went to take a dump and got lost.
08:48Wait, he said squad captain.
08:50Which means that guy must be...
08:53Ten.
08:53Yami Sukihiro, God of Destruction!
08:56What are you counting down to?
08:58The end of your little life.
08:59Ha ha ha!
09:00Yami!
09:01The captain of the Black Bulls!
09:02I've been in the squad of scoundrels who do more harm than good.
09:07Those Black Bulls!
09:08There's not a single person on that squad who doesn't have a screw loose.
09:13One's a shameless flirt.
09:14One's mute.
09:16What are the rest of them like?
09:17Man, I hope I don't end up on that squad.
09:21Why did I pick the wrong guy to run into?
09:23My head's gonna explode!
09:25One's a
09:33Three, two, one.
09:38Well now, look at that.
09:40The exam is about to begin.
09:42Two.
09:45That was a close one, boy.
09:48You got a second chance at life.
09:50Better do something with it, or I'll come back and kill you.
09:53See you later.
09:58I wish the captain would just kill me instead.
10:05That was a whole lot of not fun.
10:09Is your head feeling alright?
10:11Uh, yeah.
10:12Confronting Captain Yami of the Black Bulls without warning like that?
10:16I can't say I envy you.
10:17Oh, I'm Seke, by the way.
10:19Seke Bronzatsa.
10:21It's nice to meet you.
10:22Yeah, same to you.
10:24I'm Asta.
10:25That's Nozell Silva, the captain of the Silver Eagles.
10:47Like one of them.
10:51A real Magic Knight squad, Captain.
10:54Interesting hairstyle.
10:55How does he see with that thing in his face?
10:57Fuegolion Vermillion, Captain of the Crimson Lions.
11:04As his name suggests, he's a Flame Creation Magic user.
11:09Wow.
11:11Jack the Ripper, Captain of the Green Praying Mantises.
11:16Wait, what's a praying mantis?
11:17That long, thin, green bug.
11:19Captain Jack can rend the very earth in two with his severing map.
11:23Whoa, that's awesome!
11:25Praying mantises, though?
11:27Seriously?
11:27Who wants to be named for a bug?
11:31Next, we have Miss Charlotte Roselay, captain of the Blue Rose Knights.
11:36Just look.
11:38She's so beautiful.
11:40Eh, she's got nothing on Sister Lily.
11:42Go there, Poizot.
11:45Captain of the Purple Orcas.
11:47That's all you got?
11:48The shabbier ones don't interest me.
11:52Dorothy Unsworth.
11:54Captain of the Coral Peacocks.
11:56Is she sleepwalking?
11:57She doesn't do anything but sleep.
12:00How'd she become a squad captain, then?
12:02She must have some incredible power that's invisible to the eye.
12:07Ril Beaumontier.
12:09Captain of the Aqua Deer.
12:12Isn't he kind of young?
12:14A bit.
12:14Captain Ril is 19 years old.
12:1619, really?
12:18Just four years older than I am.
12:20Yeah, I'll be the Wizard King before I know it.
12:23The Wizard King, huh?
12:25Now that's dreaming big.
12:27But as for the person next in line...
12:29If you take a look up there, you'll see.
12:33That's the Front Runner.
12:34Captain of the Golden Dawn, said to be the mightiest Magic Knight Squad, William Von Gens.
12:47He has his squad members' complete trust.
12:53I hear it was Captain William who took the enemy general's head in that battle a while back.
12:58Man, it would be awesome to get into the Golden Dawn.
13:02That or the Silver Eagles.
13:04Don't be an idiot.
13:06Rils and Elite Nobles are the only ones who ever get into those squads.
13:09Let's get this over with.
13:16The sooner we start, the sooner we'll be done.
13:19This exam is going to decide these youth's futures.
13:23You really shouldn't be taking it so lightly.
13:26You take it seriously enough for all of us.
13:28All the captains here in one place.
13:34Each of the Magic Knight squad captains is said to be more powerful than a hundred mages combined.
13:41From their illustrious ranks will come the next Wizard King.
13:45And the Wizard King?
13:47Like he would bother with something as pedestrian as an exam.
13:51Just getting all the squad captains in one place is miraculous already.
13:55Attention, examinees.
14:00Thank you for waiting.
14:03I will be administering this year's entrance exam.
14:09Magic Tree's Descent.
14:25Surprise, surprise, surprise, amazing as usual.
14:40Right now, this man is the one closest to becoming the Wizard King.
14:47You've waited long enough.
14:49The time has come.
14:50Let the entrance exam begin.
14:52In just a few moments, we'll begin the first in a series of tests.
15:04The nine Magic Knight captains will be serving as your judges.
15:08And when the exam is complete, we will choose the individuals we want on our squads.
15:13If chosen, you are in.
15:15If more than one squad chooses you, you will decide which you would like to join.
15:19However, if you are not selected by any squad, that means you have been deemed unqualified to join the Magic Knights.
15:27That won't happen. I will be chosen.
15:30And now for your first test.
15:32You must use the brooms you've been given to fly.
15:35To fly?
15:36I've never done that before.
15:38A mage who is in control of his or her magic power can do it on instinct alone.
15:42It is our most basic way to get from one place to another.
15:46If you can't fly on a broom, then you are not worth our time.
15:50Enough talk. Now begin!
15:52This test is an excellent way for us to gauge the examinee's basic abilities.
16:06Seems we have a number of promising candidates this year.
16:14Hard to believe a guy from some backwater village could do so well.
16:18He was chosen by the four-leaf clover.
16:20What's going on there?
16:29Even if he doesn't have any significant talent, he should still be able to float.
16:35If you'll excuse me for a moment.
16:40Can you believe this guy?
16:42That's one down at least.
16:45Why did he even bother to come?
16:47Hey, what are you doing?
16:48This is supposed to be the easy part.
16:51Try relaxing your muscles a bit.
16:53See? It really couldn't be simpler.
16:55Wow! Man, that's so awesome!
16:57Don't tense up. Let it come naturally.
17:00Right, got it.
17:01You're a good guy, you know?
17:04Nope, still not happening!
17:11Right.
17:11What are you doing?
17:12What are you doing?
17:14I just... I mean...
17:17Don't play dumb with me.
17:19I've told you royalty need not undergo the same tests as common folk.
17:23Yes, but...
17:24Enough. Where you'll go is already decided.
17:28Stop this pointless nonsense.
17:30Yes. Of course, Nazal.
17:32Although, if we're being honest, your very existence is pointless.
17:36It's fine. Try to relax.
17:53Shake it off and keep going.
17:56I'm not done yet!
18:02Well, what's next?
18:06Nope! Still not giving up!
18:09On to the next test.
18:16The final and most difficult.
18:18A display of combat skill.
18:19Prepare to duel!
18:24You will break into pairs and fight each other!
18:27Use your grimoires to attack and defend!
18:30I bet losing will tank your chances of being chosen.
18:33Better to choose an easy partner.
18:35Someone weak.
18:36As knights, battle is our business.
18:38We want to see everything you're capable of!
18:41The test will end when one combatant either surrenders or is unable to continue.
18:46We have mages wielding recovery magic standing by for the injured.
18:49So don't hold anything back!
18:52The last test?
18:54I've done nothing but shout this whole time!
18:56The best way to show up now is to pair off with someone strong.
19:00There's gotta be someone who'll agree to fight me!
19:04What do you say you and I pair up?
19:07You really mean it, Seke?
19:09You're willing to take on a charity case like me?
19:12Oh, absolutely.
19:14You really are a good guy.
19:17We're ready for the first bout.
19:19Let's go.
19:19We're coming!
19:21Ha ha!
19:26We're both working for the same goal.
19:28So we'll have a fair fight, but nobody pulls any punches, okay?
19:33Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
19:36Stop trying so hard.
19:37It's almost getting painful to watch.
19:39You're just a grubby little gutter rat who's way out of his depth.
19:42I guess I should thank you for sticking around and making me look good.
19:46Once I'm chosen by a squad, I plan to kick up my heels and enjoy the ride.
19:50It's going to be so much fun.
19:52No.
19:53Let's get this over with, shall we?
19:55Then you can scurry on home to the garbage heap you came from and get back to whatever pitiful excuse for a life you have left.
20:03Ha ha!
20:04Man, he had the right idea.
20:09Picking the weakest partner to duel.
20:11Oh, Seke.
20:12Okay.
20:13Now, beacon!
20:15No pulling punches, remember?
20:18Let's do this, Asta!
20:19Ha ha!
20:20Bronze creation magic, Seke Magnum Cannonball!
20:31What do you think of this, Captains?
20:34The bronze magic power I've crafted is dual purpose.
20:37It protects me and attacks with magic bullets.
20:40It will fend off his pathetic attack, showing off my skills at defense.
20:44Then, the second he's exhausted, I'll go on the offensive and shoot!
20:48That seems like some fairly high-level magic for an examinee.
20:52He looks like an insect, though.
20:54Big spiny bull bug.
20:56Come on, don't get shy on me now.
20:58Ha ha!
20:59Good.
21:00Watching him struggle should liven things up.
21:04Okay.
21:05Here we go.
21:15Oh.
21:16Ah!
21:18Unlike you, Seke, I'm not joining the magic knights just so I can slack off and have a little fun.
21:36I've got a much bigger goal.
21:38I'm gonna be the Wizard King!
21:40I'm gonna be the Wizard King!
21:50I'll take a long time for the Wizard King!
21:53This is so wonderful!
21:54Alright.
21:55I'll take the long time for this year.
22:00I'll take the long time for the Wizard King!
22:04Today, the main character is shining.
22:11I'm looking at my eyes, and I'll close my eyes.
22:18I've been thinking a lot, and I've been thinking a lot.
22:25It's strange, isn't it?
22:27If I'm laughing, I'll be laughing.
22:32I am going to be able to ask you what I want
22:39I am going to be the same morning
22:46I am going to be the next day
22:50I am not going to be the same day
22:55Tohade no bokura wo
23:25Wait, stop, what do you think you're doing?
23:28No way, let go
23:30Ah, you know
23:32Bye, Asuka
23:34Oh boy
23:37I don't have much of a track record
23:39That's not gonna stop me though
23:41I'm gonna pass this, just watch
23:44Black Clover, page 5
23:46The road to the Wizard King
23:48My magic is never giving up
