Based on Yūki Tabata’s popular manga, Black Clover is a well-known Japanese animated series that captivated viewers with its gripping plots and memorable characters. Fans have been eagerly awaiting the return of the anime, even though it concluded its 170th episode (commonly referred to as the end of Season 4) in March 2021. As of late 2024, there has been no official announcement regarding a new anime series. This article explores the facts and the speculation surrounding the potential continuation of the anime.
What to Expect from a Potential New Season
In March 2021, the final episode of Black Clover aired, marking important turning points in Asta’s quest to become the Wizard King. While the anime took a break, the manga has continued to release new chapters, providing a wealth of material for adaptation.
Fans’ hopes for a new season were rekindled with the release of the film Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King on Netflix in 2023. This has fueled widespread speculation, but as of late 2024, the makers have not yet formally announced plans for a new Black Clover anime series. Any reports of a new series or a specific release date for 2026 are currently based on unsubstantiated rumors and fan speculation.

The Story Arc After the Anime’s End
The 170th episode of the original Black Clover anime, which covered a large chunk of the Spade Kingdom Arc, is where the next anime series would likely begin. It would delve into the tragic Zogratis family saga and their deep relationship with devils. The plot might go more deeply into the ascent to power of the Spade Kingdom and the royal family’s fight against the influence of the underworld.
Crucial events from the previous anime series included Asta developing a strong bond and cooperating with Liebe, his devil companion, in defiance of the underworld’s norms. As Asta and Yuno continue their unrelenting quest to become the Wizard King, fans can anticipate fierce combat, complex character arcs, and exciting events when the series eventually returns.
