Fans of the series can easily watch it on Crunchyroll with English subtitles while Funimation released an English dubbed version. The series might be compared with other shonen anime because of its premise but fans do not agree with that. In fact, here are 3 reasons anime fans should consider watching Black Clover:
1.Worldbuilding
From the synopsis alone, fans can get the idea that Black Clover will be set in a magical world but it didn't mention that it will be in a medieval setting. The world of Black Clover has a power system that affects everyone in their class. Even better, there is a world outside for the characters to explore. Aside from the social system, there is also a magic system that consists of different types of magic.
2. Pacing
Unlike other shonen series, the pacing of Black Clover is perfect. No unnecessary fillers and no long irrelevant scenes to waste time. The story continuously moves at the right pace, giving fans the information they need before going forward. The twists and turns are given at the right time. Issues are solved immediately without dragging the story. Fans won't feel the need to skip any part because if they do, they will miss something important.
3. Characters
Black Clover has a large cast. Sometimes, shows can get overwhelmed with this and not give each character a chance to develop. That is not the case with Black Clover. Each character has their moment to shine, to grow, and to be recognized. All scenes with the characters are still relevant to the story so there are no added fillers.
These are just some of the reasons Black Clover is worth watching. Fans will also notice that Black Cover's comedy is entertaining as much as its other aspects. Want to look for more series like Black Clover? We prepared the list for you.
