Black Clover’s Anime Is Allegedly Eyeing a New Season
The Hit Anime Went Off the Air Back In 2021
After endearing fans worldwide during 2021, theBlack Cloveranime ended its annual run with an abrupt ending. Audiences watched as Asta brought his journey to a close before the manga’s final war even began. The cliffhanger led fans to believeBlack Cloverwould continue one day. After all, the show did not cover every arc available in the manga, but those hopes soon languished as years went by without any updates.
Now, after a 5-year wait, Asta and his friends are causing commotion among anime fans. It would put things lightly to say the return ofBlack Cloverhas been long demanded by netizens, and the fandom is not quiet about those demands. Ever since Yuki Tabata’s hit series went off the air, fans have been asking for Asta to return, but Pierrot has kept busy with projects likeBleach: Thousand-Year Blood Warinstead.
If this report is true, well - there is good reason to be excited. Black Clover’s comeback would set up Asta for a timeskip that manga readers know well. When the anime left off, the mage had yet to master his demonic powers, but that is not the case in later arcs. The return of Black Clover would put Asta and Liebe center stage with Yuno, and their fights would be a true joy to watch. But alas, no official confirmation has gone live to put fans (and their hopes) at ease.

The Spade Kingdom Raid Arc Is Asta’s Next Quest
During the original run ofBlack Clover,the anime adapted story beats all the way up to the Elf Reincarnation arc. The series has shown no interest in diverging from the story created by Tabata, so the anime’s return would follow Asta through the Spade Kingdom Raid Arc.
For many fans, this action-heavy arc is consideredone of the best in the entire franchiseas it features some of the most exciting battles in the manga. The presence of Black Asta makes the arc a highlight, and with proper animation, Pierrot could do something special with the arc. But as for when fans will get to see this transformation on the screen, that is anybody’s guess.
