Even after years of hiatus, Black Clover remains one of Netflix in 2024, proving its popularity remains undiminished. A recent report from the platform revealed that the series ranked sixth among the most-watched anime last year, accumulating an impressive 138 million hours of viewing. This puts Black Clover ahead of current phenomena like Jujutsu Kaisen and Dandadan , demonstrating the charisma of Asta and his crew around the world.

The series, which premiered in October 2017, had a successful run of 170 episodes before going on hiatus in March 2021. Thus, one of the reasons for the hiatus was the accelerated pace of production, which ended up bringing the anime closer to the manga.
Now, with plenty of source material available and the end of the story approaching, the time seems perfect for Black Clover .
What to expect from the return of Black Clover?
The next story arc, titled " Spades Kingdom Raid ," promises to elevate the series to new heights. Considered one of the narrative's high points, this arc features thrilling twists and turns and concludes several previous arcs. Furthermore, animation studio Pierrot has been revamping its production to prioritize quality, which should result in more polished animation and fewer filler episodes.
It's worth noting that Black Clover wasn't the only Pierrot production affected by hiatus. Series like Boruto and Kingdom also faced similar challenges, but the studio appears to be reorganizing to deliver more consistent work. With Anime Japan 2025 approaching, we may soon hear about the return of Asta and the Black Bulls.
