Okay, after reading this fight again, I can say I like it. Magna needed that victory after spending most of the series playing second fiddle to other characters and gettins so cucked with things like the Royal Knights selection or the Heart kingdom training, and the fight was very Magna-like with some raw as hell panels and a nice fist fight. Felt very inspiring in a way.
That being said, it also killed any credibility it could have about Dante being a competent antagonist. Dude had it rough by losing against Asta, but this has turned him into an absolute clown. I felt bad for him at times because I know he wasn't gonna win, that would have ruined Magna's glorious moment, so he had to be sacrificed for that.
I am impressed by the fact the author sacrificed the main antagonist of the arc like this, but I guess Dante was a red herring all along, Lucifero will possibly take that role from now on.
Also, I'm disappointed Jack didn't manage to do anything by the end, his big power up ended up being useless and then he had to stay down so Magna could fight Dante. In a series where team fights are used a lot and characters who wouldn't perform well in 1 on 1 fights can shine thought teamwork it's a shame a captain of all characters had to be the one getting robbed of a satisfying fight, but it is what it is.
That said, let's continue with the rest of the volume. In expect great things from Noelle this time.
