Man, Black Clover fans have been holding out for this moment forever. After that brutal cliffhanger back in 2021 with episode 170, the wait finally paid off big time at Jump Festa 2026. Late December 2025 brought the hype with a brand-new teaser trailer, slick key visual, and solid confirmation – the series drops in 2026.
Black Clover Season 2 Release Date Speculations
Jump Festa 2026 nailed it down: premiering sometime in 2026. Studio Pierrot’s back in the director’s chair, and Crunchyroll handles worldwide streaming, just like the original run. No pinpoint month yet, but anime drops usually hit spring, summer, fall, or winter slots. That early tease from Anime Expo 2025 got everyone buzzing, and now it’s locked in official.
The hiatus made sense – gave the manga room to stack chapters, dodging any rushed filler or catch-up drama. Teaser footage already looks crisp, promising bumped-up animation that fans deserve after the long break.
Black Clover Season 2 Expected Cast
The lineup sticks with the classics, keeping that raw energy intact. Standouts include:
- Gakuto Kajiwara screaming his heart out as Asta, the anti-magic powerhouse who never quits
- Nobunaga Shimazaki as the chill rival Yuno with insane wind magic
- Kana Yuuki nailing Noelle Silva’s water spells and that fiery personality
- Junichi Suwabe laying down the lazy-cool vibes as Yami Sukehiro, Black Bulls captain
Pretty much the whole Black Bulls crew, other captains, and Dark Triad baddies return. Voice actors hit the Jump Festa stage, getting everyone pumped for the same chemistry. English dub news hasn’t hit yet, but Crunchyroll’s pattern points to subs first, dub following quick.
Black Clover Season 2 Potential Plot
Picks up exactly where it left off – the Spade Kingdom Raid arc kicks in hard. Dark Triad snatched Yami and William Vangeance for their twisted devil ritual, and things explode from there.
Asta grinds with Liebe to nail Devil Union, Yuno powers up massively, and the Magic Knights launch a full invasion. Expect wild battles, shadow magic from Nacht, devil lore drops, and the Wizard King race heating up like crazy.
This arc cranks the intensity with character upgrades, rescues, and underworld twists. Manga’s got tons of material, heading into its endgame, so the adaptation stays true without stretching thin.
Quick note: That 2023 Netflix flick, Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King, was a fun original side tale – doesn’t link to the main story here.
