Black Clover Main Characters

Asta and Yuno grow up as orphans at a church in the village of Hage, and both dream of becoming the Wizard King, the greatest mage of the Clover Kingdom. At 15, Yuno receives a four-leaf clover grimoire, while Asta, who has no magic power at all, receives a tattered five-leaf grimoire with a devil, Liebe, living inside. Yuno joins the Golden Dawn, the top squad of the Magic Knights, and Asta joins the rowdy Black Bulls under Captain Yami Sukehiro. There he teams up with Noelle Silva, a royal whose enormous water magic rarely goes where she aims it.

The Black Bulls: Every Member

The Black Bulls have a reputation as the most destructive squad in the Magic Knights: their missions often did more harm than the threats they were sent to stop, which left them with a negative star count. Captain Yami Sukehiro takes in misfits no other squad wanted, among them the battle-hungry Luck Voltia, the witch Vanessa Enoteca and Gauche Adlai, who lives for his little sister. Their crooked headquarters in the woods keeps changing its layout thanks to Henry Legolant's Recombination Magic. Once Asta arrives, the squad wipes out its black stars and finishes second at the Star Awards Festival, and it is still the only squad with devils among its members.

The Magic Knight Squads and Their Captains

The Magic Knights guard the Clover Kingdom in nine squads, each led by a captain who holds the rank of Grand Magic Knight and answers to the Wizard King. Successful missions earn a squad stars of excellence, and every year the Star Awards Festival crowns the squad with the most stars. The Golden Dawn usually sits at the top of that count, while the Black Bulls start out deep in the red. Each squad has its own insignia and robe, and royals usually join their family's squad, like the Silva family's Silver Eagles or the Vermillion family's Crimson Lions. The squads, with the captain who leads each one:

Aqua DeerRill BoismortierCalled the Gray Deer under Julius Novachrono, until Rill, the youngest captain ever, changed its color to aqua

The Wizard Kings

The Wizard King leads the Magic Knights as the kingdom's mightiest mage, with military authority equal to that of the king himself. The title began 500 years ago with Prince Lumiere Silvamillion Clover, who defended humanity from a giant demon, and when the story opens it belongs to Julius Novachrono, the 28th Wizard King and once the captain of the Gray Deer squad. Earlier Wizard Kings, among them Princia Funnybunny and Conrad Leto, appear in the 2023 movie Sword of the Wizard King. In the end, Asta's dream comes true: he becomes the 29th Wizard King, the first peasant, the youngest person and the first person with no magic to hold the title.

Asta's Swords and Grimoire

Asta fights with Anti-Magic swords that he draws from the pages of his grimoire without spending any magic. His first, the Demon-Slayer Sword, cuts through spells with its edge and bats them back with its flat. The Demon-Dweller Sword soaks up magic and releases it as a flying slash, and the Demon-Destroyer Sword severs cause from effect, undoing damage a spell has already done. When Yami Sukehiro hands Asta his katana, the Anti-Magic in Asta's devil arm turns it into the Demon-Slasher Katana. The first three swords once belonged to the elf Licht. The more of Liebe's power Asta draws on, the more devilish he looks in his Black Asta form, and the two can fuse in Devil Union.

SwordWhat it does
Demon-Slayer SwordAsta's first sword, a giant blade whose edge slices magic apart and whose flat sends it flying back
Demon-Dweller SwordDrinks in enemy spells to fire them back as slashes, and links Asta to allies to share Anti-Magic
Demon-Destroyer SwordSevers cause from effect to undo a spell's effects, even poison damage and reincarnation
Demon-Slasher KatanaYami's katana, turned into an Anti-Magic blade by Asta's devil arm

Black Clover Devils

Devils are ancient beings from the underworld, a bleak realm of seven levels where they pass the time tormenting each other and toying with humans. Each devil is born into a rank, from low-ranking to highest-ranking, and never disobeys one above it. The highest-ranking devils are tied to the Tree of Qliphoth, and three of them, Lucifero, Beelzebub and Astaroth, rule the deepest level with power over gravity, space and time. A human host can borrow a devil's magic, and only magic of the highest stages, negative mana or another devil's magic can counter their spells. The devils, their hosts and their powers:

NaamahNo host: emerges alongside LilithDevil Flame Magic

The Dark Triad and the Spade Kingdom

The Dark Triad are three Zogratis siblings who rule the Spade Kingdom through fear after seizing it from the House of Grinberryall, Yuno's own royal family. Dante Zogratis hosts Lucifero, Vanica Zogratis hosts Megicula and Zenon Zogratis hosts Beelzebub, all highest-ranking devils. The siblings share part of that power with their Dark Disciples. To open the Tree of Qliphoth, a channel to the underworld, they kidnap William Vangeance and Yami Sukehiro, whose World Tree Magic and Dark Magic the ritual needs. Behind them all stands the oldest sibling, Lucius Zogratis, the host of Astaroth, who has been hiding in the Clover Kingdom using the Wizard King, Julius Novachrono, as his cover.

The Elves and the Eye of the Midnight Sun

Five hundred years ago, Licht, the leader of the elves, was a friend of Prince Lumiere Silvamillion Clover and married the prince's sister, Tetia. On their wedding day the elves were massacred in a plot by the devil Zagred, who imitated Lumiere's Light Magic so that Licht would believe his friend had betrayed him, and who then used Reincarnation Magic to keep the elves' souls from moving on. Centuries later, Patry awakens first, inside the body of William Vangeance, and founds the Eye of the Midnight Sun to revive the other elves in human hosts and take revenge on the kingdom. Its three strongest fighters form the Third Eye.

Black Clover Heights and Ages

Heights in centimeters, with feet and inches, from the character profiles. Asta stands just 155 cm (5'1"), shorter than Noelle Silva at 161 cm (5'3") and well below his rival Yuno at 172 cm (5'8"). Jack the Ripper, the rangy captain of the Green Praying Mantis, is the tallest human here at 197 cm (6'6"), and only the devils Zagred and Lucifero top him, at 211 cm and 210 cm (both 6'11"). Charmy Pappitson, who is part dwarf, is the shortest at 142 cm (4'8"), while Secre Swallowtail measures just 8 cm in her bird form, Nero.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is the strongest Black Clover character?

Lucius Zogratis, the final villain, is the most powerful: as the self-proclaimed Wizard Emperor he taps into the magic of every grimoire tower in the kingdom, and it takes Asta and Yuno fighting side by side to defeat him. Among the heroes, Asta and Yuno finish the story as the strongest, with Asta crowned the Wizard King. Our strongest characters ranking lets you vote for your own pick.

Does Asta become the Wizard King?

Yes. Asta succeeds Julius Novachrono as the 29th Wizard King, and no peasant, no one so young and no one without magic had held the title before him. Yami Sukehiro then retires from the Black Bulls and forms his own Special Reserve Corps, while Nacht Faust becomes the squad's new captain.

How tall is Asta?

Asta is 155 cm (5'1") tall, short for a Magic Knight, and he makes up for it with a muscular body built through years of hard training. Yuno, by comparison, measures 172 cm.

How old are Asta, Yuno and Noelle?

All three are 15 when the story begins: Asta and Yuno receive their grimoires on turning 15, and Noelle Silva joins the Black Bulls the same year. In the finale they are 20. Asta and Yuno even share a birthday, October 4, while Noelle's is November 15.

Who is in the Black Bulls?

Captain Yami Sukehiro and vice captain Nacht Faust lead Asta, Noelle Silva, Secre Swallowtail, Vanessa Enoteca, Grey, Charmy Pappitson, Luck Voltia, Zora Ideale, Magna Swing, Finral Roulacase, Gauche Adlai, Gordon Agrippa and Henry Legolant. The devil Liebe, who lives in Asta's grimoire, counts as a member too.

Who is Liebe in Black Clover?

Liebe is the devil inside Asta's grimoire and the source of his Anti-Magic. Born without magic on the underworld's first level, he was raised by Asta's mother, Licita, until Lucifero killed her, and he swore to wipe out every devil. After the Devil-Binding Ritual, he and Asta become partners on equal terms. Other major devils include Megicula, Zagred and Lucifero, who rules the underworld.

Who voices Asta in English and Japanese?

Dallas Reid voices Asta in the English dub, and Gakuto Kajiwara voices him in the original Japanese. In the Jump Festa 2016 OVA, made before the TV series, Shun Horie voiced him.

Who are the Dark Triad in Black Clover?

Dante Zogratis, Vanica Zogratis and Zenon Zogratis, siblings who took over the Spade Kingdom and host the devils Lucifero, Megicula and Beelzebub. Their eldest brother, Lucius Zogratis, turns out to be the final villain of the story.
