First thing first, let’s recall and remember what Black clover anime has offered us. Just like any other anime it is directly inspired from a Japanese manga series, beautifully written and illustrated by Yuki Tabata.
“Even if you weren’t chosen, even if you weren’t wanted, even if you aren’t forgiven, you need to stand your ground no matter how pathetic you are!”
Asta.
The story is set in an unknown world where every individual is born with some sort of magical power. However, the story is about the main character named Asta, who was born without any magic power. He was raised in an orphanage alongside his fellow orphan Yuno.
Unlike Asta, Yuno was born with immense magical power and the ability to control magic, he desired to become a great Wizard King. On the other hand, Asta didn’t lose hope and focused on building physical strength.
“Quit giving up! What you’re doing right now is running away! You just stopped thinking and locked yourself up in darkness because it’s easier that way!”
Asta.
Later, Asta along with his fellow mages aims to become the next Wizard king, and as Yuno also had the same desire eventually they developed friendly rivalry. Black Clover’s main cast includes Asta, Yuno, Owen, Silvamillion Clover, Marx Francois, Julius Novachrono, and Lumiere.
As the story progresses, they fight against various devils with frightening magical powers, uncovering mysteries from the past and keeping up the adventure.
