We regret to inform you that due to unforeseen circumstances, Black Clover Chapter 339 will not be released to readers this week. While this delay is annoying at the moment, readers can be certain that the next edition will be well worth the wait. Whether it’s through Asta’s connection with Ichika growing stronger or his meeting the other Ryuzen Seven, the events of Black Clover Chapter 339 will certainly move Asta’s training subarc along. However, from the beginning of the series’ final arc, readers have been able to rely on the series creator and artist Yuki Tabata to deliver in every issue. In this post, we’ll take a look at the release data we have so far for Black Clover Chapter 339 and use it to make educated guesses about what the issue will include. The long week between chapters in Black Clover Chapter 339 probably means an intense one is coming.
When it will be out and where you may find it
Official worldwide distribution of Black Clover Chapter 339 is scheduled for October 2, 2022. Instead, the issue will be available domestically in Japan and to select overseas fans in the wee hours of Monday, October 3, 2022.
The issue is available on both the free MangaPLUS service and the premium Shonen Jump+ app, both from Shueisha. The former is an unpaid service that provides access to the first three issues of a series. The latter is a premium service that requires membership and provides access to the complete series.
These are the hours, in the respective time zones, when the issue will be made available:
Time in the Pacific: 8 a.m. (October 2)
Time in the East: 11 a.m. (October 2)
Time in Britain: 16:00 BST (October 2)
Time in Europe: 5:00 p.m. CEST (October 2) Current local time in India is 11:30 p.m. IST (October 2) Time in the Philippines: 11:30 p.m. PHT (October 2) Time in Japan: 2:00 p.m. JST (October 3) There is a 12:30 AM ACST time change in Australia (October 3)
Typical Events (speculative)
There’s a good chance that Black Clover Chapter 339 will keep focusing on Asta’s stay in Hino Country. Tabata may alternatively switch points of view, but it seems extremely unlikely given the fact that there are important issues about the show’s near future that has yet to be resolved. Even if Tabata did change points of view, it wouldn’t be for a significant stretch of time—at least not a chapter. A continuation of Nacht and the Black Bulls’ hunt for Asta is the most likely outcome, although it is quite doubtful that it will occur before Asta begins his training.
Therefore, readers may anticipate that Asta will remain the primary character in Black Clover Chapter 339. As Yami Ichika is now a member of the Ryuzen Seven, the most anticipated events of the next issue will likely involve the debut of the remaining Ryuzen Seven. Fans should anticipate the two to bond and grow closer despite the seeming difficult start because she is the sister of Yami Sukehiro, Asta’s captain in the Black Bulls.
Extraordinary uses of Ki will most likely be elaborated upon or hinted at more for fans in terms of lore and worldbuilding.
Since Yami Ichika didn’t appear to use magic and the designs of her powering up had never been seen in the anime before, many fans have speculated that her latest display of strength was rooted in Ki. And others have speculated that Ryuda’s heightened sense of sight is also a product of his extensive usage of Ki. If this is not the case, then Ryuda must also be under a Devil’s contract, and the Devil’s power would give him the capacity to foresee the future or perceive events that have not yet occurred. Whatever the situation may be, it’s obvious that the series is leading up to the unveiling of a greater force than the new Sorcery power system hiding in Hino Country.
Even while Ryuda’s explanation of his abilities hinted at this, the fact that Ichika appears to be employing a previously unseen talent makes it all but inevitable. Fans may anticipate the next issue of Black Clover to at least further tease this skill, if not really disclose it. Black Clover Chapter 339 will most likely continue the high standard set by the previous issues in terms of both story and art.
