Black Clover season 2 is confirmed officially. This was verified when a listing for the show was spotted on Shueisha's official website. Studio Pierrot will be returning to the helm for the second season of the anime series. The first anime consisted of 170 episodes and it ran from 2017 to 2021.

This series has finished the Elf Reincarnation arc, and then it was put on hiatus not due to negative overanalysis but because of catching up to the manga. Rather than relying on filler, Studio Pierrot chose to maintain the story's quality by going on hiatus.

This decision preserved narrative integrity and gave the manga time to progress. Even though there is no scheduled release date, some industry experts are of the view that season 2 may not air until 2026 since Pierrot is currently occupied with other major projects such as Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War.


Fan reactions reach peak excitement

Social media reactions to the news put Black Clover on the trending list all over the world in just a few hours. Fans tweeted their happiness about the long wait and called it the best news of the year.
