Storyline

Asta and Yuno were abandoned together at the same church and have been inseparable since. As children, they promised that they would compete against each other to see who would become the next Emperor Magus. However, as they grew up, some differences between them became plain. Yuno was a genius with magic, with amazing power and control, while Asta could not use magic at all, and tried to make up for his lack by training physically. When they received their Grimoires at age 15, Yuno got a spectacular book with a four-leaf clover (most people receive a three-leaf-clover), while Asta received nothing at all. However, when Yuno was threatened, the truth about Asta's power was revealed, he received a five-leaf clover Grimoire, a "black clover". Now the two friends are heading out in the world, both seeking the same goal.

User Reviews

Fun

I like the plot and I like the protagonist, Asta. I especially admire his determination to push his limits and be better, training hard and never giving up.

There are, however, a few things bothering me:

***in dialogues (or narration) they often point out things that were already pretty obvious from whatever was happening and then keep on discussing it for no reason

***battle scenes are often interrupted by people talking, explaining what they were doing, chatting etc, and the attackers don't seem to mind and don't attack until the other guys are done talking (most of the time) which is a bit annoying

I still recommend it though. Ignoring all of the above problems kind of grows on you. It's pretty charming and I do like the charachters and their development. I do hope there will be season 2.
