Black Clover Story
Black Clover, created by Yuki Tabata, stars Asta – a young orphan boy with no magical abilities, in a world where nearly everyone possesses them.
Asta is lifelong friends with Yuno, a boy from his orphanage who has an incredible talent for wind magic.
The land they live in is known as the Clover Kingdom. The kingdom has a powerful wizard, the Wizard King, as second in power next to the real king.
Asta and Yuno eventually become rivals, dreaming of becoming the next Wizard King one day.
Unfortunately, Asta lacks the magic he needs to take the position- until he discovers a mysterious five-leaf grimoire that grants him the ability to use powerful “anti-magic.”
Asta and Yuno become Magic Knights, and their journey to Wizard King begins!
The Black Clover manga is ongoing and is published in Weekly Shonen Jump in Japan. Thirty-two volumes are available currently, and the series is licensed by Viz Media in North America.

After wrapping up the latest intense arc of the manga, the creator Yuki Tabata announced the series would enter a short hiatus to prepare for the official final arc of the manga.
In an official letter, Tabata stated: “I personally wished to keep going without taking a break, but after discussing things with the editorial department, we decided that I should take a long break to give me more time to create the final arc.”
The manga began publishing again in August 2022, but the final arc is in full swing! Fans should hang on tight for the wild finale of Black Clover!
