So I've become the enemy of many by downgrading Black Clover's speed, lovely. But, there is some silver lining (hopefully), as there is an upgrade to be found in all this. Specifically, for the final arc. Let's talk about it.
This is a calc I put out some time ago that was recently accepted. This CRT is intended to implement it onto the profiles. However, I know there is a question that'll be on a number of people's minds, given how high the result of this calc is:
"Is this calc an outlier?"
The short answer is: No, it's not. The long answer, though, will require us to go through each of the guidelines of the Outliers page, which is exactly what I will do now:
1. Is it a big jump or drop in speed?
Yes, but that's not a dealbreaker on its own, especially given that this point later goes on to say that if the character in question has very few feats/calcs, this point can be discarded.
2. Is it a unique or exceptional incident?
Yes, but like with point 1, Yuno lacks speed calcs (the verse does as a whole, really) so this can be skipped as stated in this very point.
3. Is the event unexplained and unjustified?
No, it is very much explained and justified via the fact that this is after a 15 month timeskip, wherein everyone improved vastly, with Yuno even achieving the title of Grand Magic Knight (literally one step away from becoming Wizard King). Even the likes of Yami are also astounded by his growth in this time period
4. Does the event break the previously established power-scaling?
No, as the 15-month timeskip puts everyone at a significantly greater level than before. The only one who could potentially scale that isn't in the final arc is Complete Lucifero, who himself has no scaling to anyone else. (Edit: He doesn't even scale anyway as of now, supporting this point even further)
5. Does the event break the narrative of the work?
No. Although I've mentioned the cap of light speed for Black Clover, this is only relevant until the Elf Arc. Afterwards, such a cap doesn't appear to exist, as evidenced by Lucifero being FTL, Demon Light Magic literally being FTL itself, and the lack of light speed being stated or even hinted as an ultimate level of speed in the Spade Arc onwards.
So, I believe that with each guideline having been gone through, I can safely come to the conclusion that this feat is not an outlier.
With that done, I'd now like to go over who scales to this calc. The characters that scale are as follows:
And with that, I've said all I've needed to say. Feel free to discuss!

- Judgment Day Base Yuno + Spirit Dive Yuno
- Sacred Power Lucius
- Judgment Day Base Asta + all higher forms
