Black Clover plot and trailer

Black Clover is returning with the second season after nearly 5 years since the cliffhanger ending of the first season, and fans are eagerly waiting for its grand return with action-packed fights and magical quests with Asta and Yuno. While the previous season had 170 episodes, you can expect a similar count for the second season as well. The voice cast of  Gakuto Kajiwara as Asta, Nobunaga Shimazaki as Yuno, and Kana Yūki as Noelle Silva return in the lead roles alongside the recurring characters.

For the unversed, Black Clover is set in a world where magic is the center of everything. The more magic you possess, the higher your rank goes. The story of season 1 revolves around Asta and Yuno, two abandoned babies in a church, who grow up to be game changers for their place. While Yuno is gifted with impeccable magical powers and possesses a calm aura, Asta is totally opposite, with a rogue personality and no magical powers. Despite their rivalry, Asta and Yuno embark on the same quest to become the Wizard King.

Black Clover is adapted from Yūki Tabata’s manga series and is directed by Tatsuya Yoshihara. Apart from the anime, there is a movie titled Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King, which carried the legacy of this action and fantasy anime.
