Just when we thought that the Spade Kingdom arc is picking up pace with a series of intense battles, the Black Clover franchise shocked us by announcing that the anime will end soon.
The Spade Kingdom arc is also the most recent arc of Yuki Tabata’s original manga series, and despite all those filler episodes, the anime is finally catching up with the manga. So, will this be the end of our favorite anime? Or is this just a well-deserved break for the franchise?
On Tuesday, the official website for Black Clover anime announced that the anime will end on March 30, with its 170th episode. It is also reported that the final episode will have another important announcement.
It has been announced that Black Clover will be ending its current anime run on Episode 170. The episode will air in Japan on March 30, & will be followed by a special afterward & a “big announcement”

The good news is that the manga is still running, and the latest chapters are hinting towards a second phase of battles against the Spade Kingdom. But surprisingly, there’s a place that can serve as a good ending for the anime.
So, it will be interesting to see if the anime chooses that route. All our hope resides on the ‘important announcement’ that is supposed to be revealed on March 30.
It is no secret that Naruto has heavily influenced Black Clover. From having a childhood friend as a rival to a devil residing within the protagonist, there are quite a few similarities.
This makes us wonder if we are heading towards a ‘Naruto Shippuden’ for Black Clover. We may get a second series, which will continue from where the initial anime ended.
For now, fans are focused on Episode 163 that will show us the epic battle between Yami and Dante, and all we can hope that nothing happens to our favorite Magic Knight Captain.
