Black Clover is one of the most popular new-gen manga series. It is an exceptional manga that takes readers through a magical world. Due to its complicated schedule, fans are always on the lookout for updates regarding the manga's return.

In a recent update, it has been confirmed that Yuki Tabata's Black Clover will return on May 2, 2025, with two new chapters. While some fans may be disappointed with the speed, they must understand that the author needs to take care of their health. Black Clover switched to Jump GIGA so that Tabata could spend more time with his family and take care of his health. If he decided to overwork himself again, it would undo all the progress.

When Will Black Clover Anime Return?

One of the biggest questions on the minds of fans is regarding the anime's return. It went on hiatus after it had caught up to the manga, which is why the studio decided to stop the production indefinitely. If Studio Pierrot had continued producing new episodes, they would have been categorized as filler, and fans would have lost interest in the anime. Given the current pace of the manga, it is hard to make a guess about the anime's return. There needs to be a healthy gap between the two, which is why the studio will wait for longer.

Black Clover did release a film in 2023 called Sword of the Wizard King, and it received positive reception from viewers. It quenched the thirst of most fans, but it had the opposite effect on some. After seeing their favorites in action, they wanted the anime to return as quickly as possible. At the time of writing, there is no news regarding the anime, but fans can expect an update by the end of the year.

Asta of Black Clover

Black Clover is written and illustrated by Yuki Tabata. The manga began serialization in the Weekly Shonen Jump in February 2015. It continued its run in the magazine until 2023, after which it switched to Jump GIGA. The manga has performed well in terms of sales. According to reports, Black Clover has sold more than 19 million copies, making it one of the best-selling manga series of the last couple of decades. These numbers would have been higher if the manga had been released on a weekly basis or if a new season of the anime had started airing.

Black Clover's anime adaptation was announced at Jump Festa 2017. It was revealed that Studio Pierrot would handle the production. The anime was eventually released in October 2017. Aside from the anime adaptation, Black Clover also has spin-offs, novels, and video games to its name.

Black Clover is available to stream on Crunchyroll.
