| The show is still a bit dull but I got excited when they introduced all the group leaders. Funny how they time-skipped over the majority of the exam where it would have been an entire arc in something like Hunter X Hunter. |
| Still a bit boring, but Asta sure was cool at the end. |
 |
 Well done Asta, you've become self-aware. Now do something about it and calm your ass down. |

It's not that big of a spoiler. Should've already been pretty obvious where they end up though when the squads were introduced. Yeah but the way it's going (slow paced) I feel like they're going to have fights the next 2 or 3 episodes (I might be wrong) and then join the teams and it's giving me DBZ chills |
| I thought the episode was nice. I think I'll be able to stick with the series from now on. |

| well this episode was kinda funny and it was better than the previous episodes |
| "We could make the world better, but it's easier to just shut our eyes." ~Blackwall |
| This episode was so good mannnn. ~ Yes, that last scene was epic. Asta showing what he can do. :) |
  |
| While this episode was better then the others it still was really meh. Hope they will keep Noelle as good as in the manga. Loved here character so fcking much. |
  |
| that ending brought back my love for this show |
| General magic exams done fast.. Knight group leaders revealed and asta rekts the show off guy. |
 |
| As predictable as it was, Asta crushing that guy in one hit hyped me up quite a bit. I was actually disappointed that we have to wait till next week to see the wizard knight leaders (?) reaction to the whole thing. I will say I thought it was kinda dumb that they used dirty as a way have the check in guy not notice the 5 leaves. |
| Asta wrecked Sekke. That was good to watch. Yep, Asta will join the Black Bulls. Definitely his type of group "Crap! All I've been doing so far is yelling" Pretty much sums up the first three episodes. This episode was actually better. |
 |
| I mean isn't the five leaf clover as rare, or even rarer than the four leaf, so why did the admissions guy not say anything? Even if he did just dismiss Asta as soon as he saw him? Also silver retard hair seems like a douche, but his little sister seems cool and judging by the opening she's gonna play a major role in the show |

| Cljfnenficfenoicndiofn iOS omg this anime is so drawn out.... wtf I still love seeing it animated... but pick up the pace Good episode all in all |

| It was good :) Asta was expectedly ridiculous during the exams but it's not his fault, it's not because he's bad after all, he has no magic in the end. But he perfectly did the job in the fight, he's powerful and won't be mocked from now on ^^ I didn't expect these exams to be done so fast! |
Stark700 said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Welp, as expected Yuno is the hot attraction when he arrived. Asta looked like a fool and even the birds hate him! Pretty much another build up episode as they introduced a bunch of new characters. I have to admit, seeing Wililam Vangeance was kinda bizarre. Finally, they also showed some of Noelle Silva. About time. Also, Sekke animated... Asta looked really pathetic this episode until the end lol Yeah, that Hit from Asta was SO satisfying for me in the end. Yuno's face made it even better.  |
| Well at least his attack animation didn't look like complete crap. These character designs remind me too much of Berserk characters. |
| I really liked this one. Yuno must have thought something like "now the others will think twice before laughing about him again." About Sekke: He's a douchebag, but not a bad guy. It's cool that he explained who those important mages are to Asta. I can definitively see him (if he is not a 1 episode character) as someone who explains different magic types in the future. Every hero needs someone in his group who explains stuff xD I might be completly wrong about this one though, since I haven't touched the manga yet. |
| I really think most people will completely forget about Asta's voice over the time, and he'll probably evolve anyway so his yelling is likely to go down somehow. From now on people are gonna like it :) |
| Starting to get a bit more interesting now with more characters introduced but Asta is still annoying af with that voice even with my volume set to low. TheFreycook said: I mean isn't the five leaf clover as rare, or even rarer than the four leaf, so why did the admissions guy not say anything? Even if he did just dismiss Asta as soon as he saw him? I thought that too but he did mention that his grimore was dirty so it might have not been very visible. |
| I don't understand why people think this anime is going slow 8'D This isn't slow at all? If it went any faster, it'd be super rushed and I'd likely have dropped this on episode two. Even then, episode 2 had me dangling on the edge with that flashback. I don't really get a lot of hate for this series, as it's nowhere near as bad as other things I've seen. It's generic shounen, sure, but it's also doing a lot of things that many shounen aren't doing or haven't done (like from what is seems, the rival character is a genuine rival character and isn't there to be the angsty edgelord) o - o / still gonna stick with it. TheEnhancedExe said: Which is why manga like Boku no Hero Academia and Black Clover are really fast paced for the first 115 chapters (BnHA)/100 chapters (Black Clover). I haven't read Black Clover's manga, but I have read BNHA's and it's not fast-paced at all? Or if it is, it's doing a very good job at not seeming fast-paced. People are saying that the anime here is slow-paced, but if people think -this- is slow, compared to the manga, I really fear how terribly paced the manga must be 8'D |
 |
| i think lot of people misunderstood something, 5 leave grimore is unheard of for magic knights... not even sorcery emperor know about asta grimore (which will showed later)... that thugs showed in first episode more possibly get information on the black market than when he become magic knights... |

| I'm a sucker for underestimated Protagonists so that last scene was hype af for me :D |
| It still progressing pretty slowly, at least they went to introduce the characters. The only thing I can say so far is that the animations for the battle is the best thing. |
| Episode 4, but I still can't cope with Asta's voice. Now, even the non scream voice irks me. Lmao. |
 |
| Oh god this show is so paper thin, it's trying so hard to follow the shounen tropes but it's barely hanging in there. |
 |
| The best episode so far! I'm really loving this anime now that I've gotten used to the VA. |
    |
| Pfffahaha, I was just thinking the other week that this show just needs a princess like character bound by her glided cage to hit cliché bingo. This show is just MEHDAA DAAAAAAA!!!!! Not bad enough to be good either. |
 |
| Wtf. That's it. Come on. I want more of the actions. Hahaha. What a cliffhanger 😂 |
 - barely alive - |
| It's really nice episode, unlike other 2 last episodes, which is full of filler and stuffs. and shorten his yelling length than other episode which is good. Still half filler-half canon this episode. 4/5 Because of the half filler (Not Marco plz, no more memes) 4/5 Greater than other episodes (what I mean is lessen/shorter yelling length, which is kinda annoying if that's longer) |
| Finally a good episode . And Asta finally realizing that he yell all the time . And with the studio releasing good news on the anime it finally get back on track.(http://comicbook.com/anime/2017/10/23/black-clover-just-upped-its-animation-game-big-time/) See haters dont just judge on an anime early on when it like 50 episode left . |

| I am almost sure Asta will join Yama and the Black Bulls. Of course base on this episode Yama will issue a challenge to Asta in the sense: if you can touch me you are in. beat Asta to a pulp but Asta manages to hit him and gets accepted. A bit cliche but is k. It would be nice to see Yama drag Asta on the ground after accepting him in his squad. If anyone read the manga ahead he can confirm or infirm this. Just put spoiler for those that do not want to know. |
| the animation during the fight when asta took out his sword is amazing, it's way better than the manga. also...  lol so asta know it too lolol |

| I just noticed, from the start of the visuals of the ED, the black 5-leaf clover just looks like 5 pieces of scrotums interconnected together in the center?! lolz! wow i never expected that Asta would be able to win against his opponent! nice! I thought he has a really hard time materializing his magic? 4/5. |
