![]() ![]() The overarching storyline and subplots all have parallels to other works and the characters all have doppelgangers floating around in some other manga. #DOWNLOAD BLACK CLOVER EPS 28 FULL#The story is bereft of shallow gimmicks and instead opts to stuff itself full of cliches and archetypes. If you've watched Naruto, if you've watched Fairy Tail, if you have even a basic knowledge of writing propensities when it comes to shonen and fantasy, you've already gotten a taste of Black Clover. Now that the technicals are out of the way, I feel I shouldn't even have to harp all that much on the story and characters. So despite my compliments to Tabata's art style, the mediocre animation mostly serves to its benefit. Had the source material been in more capable hands like Bones or Madhouse, I feel that it could've been leaning more towards 'beautiful spectacle' territory as opposed to 'beautifully terrible'. ![]() I have conflicting feelings on the animation though. I feel that Tabata's art style wasn't properly translated from panel to screen. It can be good when it wants to and it can also skimp on its budget when it needs to. The animation is in a middling ground of both extremes. ![]() if you want the genuine Black Clover experience, the voice acting is like icing on that cake. #DOWNLOAD BLACK CLOVER EPS 28 SERIES#Although, as a small caveat, if you attempt to watch this series from the perspective of someone knowing what they are signing up for, the subbed version adds an extra layer of grease to this disgustingly satisfying sandwich. It is probably the only time watching a series that it actually elicited a physical reaction from me. He makes Junko Takeuchi's work as Naruto seem warm and inviting like Morgan Freeman. Asta's voice actor has one setting and one setting only, although that has been covered ad nauseam. The only thing Black Clover is good at is highlighting how by-the-numbers this style of series can get.īriefly touching on the technicals of this series, the voice acting is god awful. Black Clover is terrible, it's like the shonen equivalent of The Room except it gets away with convincing people that it's good. I am utterly convinced that Tabata wrote this as a cheeky retaliation/statement against the higher-ups at WSJ, and no amount of rationalizing or fanboying can change that perception for me. Black Clover is one of the most creatively bankrupt series I have ever had the pleasure of watching or reading. I imagine Tabata's frame of mind when conjuring up the idea for his follow-up was one of both pragmatism and.a cheeky disregard for creativity. Couple that with some pretty unique character models and a good sense of panel-work, it easily had the potential to grow into something much greater than it ever did. While it wasn't exactly a Dostoyevsky or Hemmingway, Hungry Joker on a conceptual level at least had a fun gimmick to play around with. ![]() I'm not attempting to white-knight Hungry Joker or anything, but the politics at WSJ are as murky as the Academy Awards Committee. Hungry Joker had the unfortunate fate of being axed by the higher-ups at WSJ, thus is the fate of most new kids on the block who don't have a proper sense of what they are doing or are given little time to spread their wings. Black Clover, or, Black Clover as the gringos say, is the sophomore effort of mangaka Yuuki Tabata, and it is a far cry from his debut work, Hungry Joker. Let me preface this pre-review by saying this, I am in love with this series, but for all the wrong reasons.

A few days later, the two friends head out into the world, both seeking the same goal-to become the Wizard King!

Though without hope and on the brink of defeat, he finds the strength to continue when he hears Yuno's voice. Asta tries to fight Lebuty, but he is outmatched. However, soon after, Yuno is attacked by a person named Lebuty, whose main purpose is to obtain Yuno's Grimoire. When they reach the age of 15, Yuno is bestowed a spectacular Grimoire with a four-leaf clover, while Asta receives nothing. While Yuno is able to wield magic with amazing power and control, Asta cannot use magic at all and desperately tries to awaken his powers by training physically. However, as they grew up, the stark difference between them became evident. Raised together as children, they came to know of the 'Wizard King'-a title given to the strongest mage in the kingdom-and promised that they would compete against each other for the position of the next Wizard King.
