Since the fourth season of Black Clover ended on March 30, 2021, fans have pleaded for a fifth. Yuki Tabata has reportedly taken a leave of absence, per sources. With the manga debuting at the start of August, Black Clover season 5 may suddenly become a reality.
Black Clover’s fourth season with the news of a movie
Season 3 has 52 episodes, compared to 51 in seasons 1 and 2. The Covid 19 pandemic, which resulted in 16 episodes being shown, necessitated several delays in the release of Season 4. The manga’s 270 chapters, along with a few pages from chapter 272, are covered in 170 episodes. Instead of announcing the fifth season of Black Clover, a movie announcement was presented to the public at the conclusion of episode 170. In the next months, it was decided to release a trailer and numerous significant stills from the movie. The movie is anticipated to arrive in 2023, despite the lack of a release date.
More chapters than the Spade Kingdom Raid arc, which had 71, are anticipated for the final act. The cast members from season four might also appear in the upcoming season as extras. The voice actors for Liebe and Nacht, Nobuhiko Okamoto and Hiro Shimono, are both well-known in the anime industry and have lent their voices to a variety of well-known anime characters. Pierrot’s assertion that they do not intend to extend their roles in the future does not seem to be supported by their participation in the project. The conclusion of Episode 170 is likewise a little abrupt.
The book’s chapters also seem to be too many to be made into a movie. However, no formal announcement concerning Tabata’s comeback has been issued. Black Clover season 5 is currently a feasible and achievable alternative. It’s probable that Pierrot won’t reveal the fifth season of Black Clover anytime soon because a movie is in the works. The return of the well-known anime will bring an end to the narrative of Asta, Yuno, and the Wizard King, which fans may eagerly anticipate.
Season 5 might happen
Due to the absence of fresh episodes to show, Season 5 of Black Clover seemed unlikely. It was turned into an animated series a few months after chapter 272 was published in November 2020, about the time when season 4 was supposed to be finished. By March 30th, 2021, just 15 more chapters would have been published, leading to 10 or fewer episodes. No, the fifth season of Black Clover couldn’t have been allowed by Studio Pierrot (see more about the studio on Wikipedia). But following that year, 45 more chapters were published. These 60 chapters might be turned into a whole season’s worth of episodes. In addition, Tabata announced a break to prepare for the series’ climax after the important revelation in chapter 331.
