Ok first of all, my mom is now simping for Julius and Morikawa’s voice hehehehe
Second of all, she is highkey feeding my theory that Julius is not human
So first, there’s a lot of foreshadowing in the patry vs julius fight particularly. Patry says, “is he even human” which first of all, sets off a lot of alarm bells in my head. I was like what are yall setting up for??
And then as he dies, he says, “I am glad to see so many humans(ningen).” There is a clear difference between “people” and “humans” in japanese. Now, the elves constantly say ningen, ningen, ningen over and over again(like a slur really asjhdask) and it makes a clear distinction that they are human and elves are not. So when there is another species, and there is a they vs them in every aspect of their behavior including language, why would tabata make Julius say “ningen”(which is the most used word when meaning humans)?
Also, we see Julius use spatial magic sometimes? Like he teleports from the midnight sun hideout to the tower where everyone else is in an instant and you cant tell me that he slowed down time around him and travelled(theoretically walked) to the tower. Like no, that man was not winded by the time he was back. And we also see him change the trajectory of objects like in his fight against patry, he returns patry’s sword, and in one instance, he also throws debris at patry in a completely new direction. But at least time and space are somewhat related, but what about his transformation magic? like that’s not related in any way TvT
And another strange thing is, why is Julius specifically 13 and not 14? My mom was the one who pointed it out in the first place. Like 6 months had already gone by so there’s one and a half year before Julius receives his full grimoire and gets his powers back and ages up but why this long? What’s going to happen in one and half years?
If he was 14, he would receive his grimoire way sooner and story would go as it is with Julius as clover kingdom’s greatest(rather negligent) protector again.
I’ve kept these thoughts to myself but my mom had been feeding them. She and I think more species are going to be revealed at when Julius gets his grimoire.
Right after the spade arc, I’m sure there would be an arc dedicated to the aftermath and possibly an arc in the Diamond kingdom bc that’s very overdue. Then I believe the map expands and new species like dwarves and maybe even angels would be revealed. Bc Spade kingdom is the gateway to the rest of the continent and right now, the story is just stuck on the increasingly small peninsula.
At this point, it’s all really speculation but I’m just putting it out there
Additionally, when I was rewatching the Patry vs Julius fight, I realized that majority of the fight was considerably slowed down for our viewing pleasure but there was this one shot where Clover citizens watch the clashing lights at the castle(Julius and Patry fighting) and my mom pointed out that Julius can go lightspeed. In irl physics, the factor you cannot control is time and so when you go lightspeed, time dilates, but Julius can control time and whenever we see him moving impossibly fast, it’s just him dilating time itself, so relative to everyone else, he is moving super fast. So with this in mind, he can dilate time so much that he moves at lightspeed but when fighting patry, when they are both moving at lightspeeds, it would just seem like they are both moving at the same speed to each other(only). It’s not really related to my theory that Julius is not human but it shows the extent of his abnormal powers
@thoughtfullyrainynightmare pointed out that the dark triad have different blood types when I was talking abt their different eye colors
I forgot my punnet squares but I’m pretty sure they all had different mothers
Dante has B
Zenon has A
Vanica has O
And Julius has AB so Lucius prolly does too because AB means that you may be two faced and look how that turned out
cool theory but unfortunately it seems you indeed have forgotten your punnet squares because look at this:
it’s possible that they all have the same parents. however, they might still have different parents. we just don’t have any proof of that at the moment
Nonono thank you so much for correcting me it’s not mean at all cus I was thinking abt it and I was like hmmm it’s possible(?) Anyways, as much as I love biology, engineering and physics are my specialty thank you for correcting me
I’ll admit that Black Clover has been rather disappointing for a long time now (to me) - but you have to give Tabata this twist:
It doesn’t change my disappointment with the Spade Arc as a whole (I had my fair share of issues with the writing and characters throughout), but certainly raises my interest for the final arc once again.
Admittedly, I’ve never been a fan of the evil-Julius theories, especially since we have been in Julius’ head before, so it didn’t make much sense. But reading the newest chapter, it’s obvious that the situation isn’t as simple as “Julius is evil”:
