# Black Clover Black Clover is a Japanese manga and anime series about Asta, a boy born with no magic in a world where magic is everything, who aims to become the Wizard King[1]. Created by Yuki Tabata in 2015, it built a loud online fandom around Asta's shouting, meme edits, and constant Naruto comparisons[2]. ## Overview Black Clover is a shonen manga and anime about Asta, a boy born without a drop of magic in a world where magic decides everything, who trains to become the Wizard King[1]. The setup is deliberately Naruto-shaped, an underdog with a loud mouth, a rival with natural talent, and a lifelong dream shouted at maximum volume, which fans openly joke about[4]. The series is recognisable for Asta's screaming voice, his black anti-magic swords, and the Black Bulls squad of misfit mages[3]. Reviews were split, ComicsAlliance recommended it to shonen fans as a solid classic-style story[2], while MyAnimeList users landed at a mid 6.7 and IMDb viewers sat closer to 7.7[3][4]. ## How It Spread Black Clover built a large online fandom fast. The dedicated subreddit r/BlackClover crossed 11,400 members in the early anime run and the main Facebook fan page passed 210,000 likes, alongside a big community wiki[5][6][7]. The show became a meme magnet for two reasons. Asta's screaming voice in the Japanese dub was so divisive that hating or defending it turned into a running joke, with Urban Dictionary entries openly calling him out for being the loudest character in shonen[8]. At the same time, fans kept meming the Naruto comparison, one Urban Dictionary definition just calls the manga "Naruto but with magic"[8]. A console game tie-in, Black Clover: Quartet Knights, launched in Japan on September 13th, 2018 and one day later in the West, which pushed the property further into gaming spaces[1]. The anime paused in 2021 after episode 170, and the 2023 Netflix film Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King brought a new wave of clips and edits to TikTok and YouTube. ## How to Use Black Clover fan content typically leans on a few recurring bits, Asta screaming "I'M GONNA BE THE WIZARD KING" over unrelated clips, fight edits set to hype music, and jokes comparing any new shonen protagonist to Asta or Naruto[8]. Reaction images of Asta, Yuno, and the Black Bulls captains are common in anime Twitter and Reddit threads, often paired with captions about grinding, underdogs, or having zero talent but max effort. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is Black Clover?
