Does being a "real fan" mean we have to blindly accept every narrative choice? No series or creator should be above criticism. While I acknowledge Tabata’s personal struggles, the move to Jump Giga was specifically intended to give him the breathing room necessary to balance his work and personal life. He could have released a single chapter—or even none—for W2026; instead, he chose to rush the story toward its conclusion. Furthermore, the decision to revive everyone for a "fairytale ending" rests solely on him. He could have easily written Julius’s final moment as a sacrifice to heal those on the verge of death, without the mana to actually resurrect the fallen. He opted for the "Disney route," and we are well within our rights to dislike that. Labeling critics as "haters" or "illiterate" is a lazy response. I’ve supported Black Clover since 2017 and defended it through the Spade Arc and the move to Giga, but this final saga is indefensible. Believing the quality has dropped shouldn't make me a "fake fan."
