In BLACK CLOVER, Asta is a young boy who dreams of becoming the greatest mage in the kingdom. Only one problem–he can’t use any magic! Luckily for Asta, he receives the incredibly rare five-leaf clover grimoire that gives him the power of anti-magic. Can someone who can’t use magic really become the Wizard King? One thing’s for sure–Asta will never give up!

“BLACK CLOVER offers an exciting story packed with magic, adventure and a cast of memorable characters that manga readers are going to love,” says Alexis Kirsch, Editor. “Born without any magical abilities, Asta is a hero readers will root for as he fights against the odds to fulfill his dreams.”
