Black Clover return date countdown
Since its shift from the main Shonen Jump lineup to Jump GIGA, Black Clover fans have slowly become accustomed to the series' new release schedule, which sees only a few chapters of its final arc debut per year. But that does not make the wait for the manga's upcoming chapter 379 any less unbearable. Here's when the Black Clover manga will return. Table of contents Black Clover return countdown: 379 and 380 release date But when will Chapter 381 debut? Is the Black Clover anime series returning, too? Black Clover return countdown: 379 and 380 release date As revealed on the official Shonen Jump site, the Black Clover manga is set to return on May 2nd, 2025, as part of the Spring Edition of Jump GIGA. The edition will feature two new chapters of the series (379 and 380). You can read the new chapters in English the moment they debut in Japan by heading to the official VIZ website or via Shueisha's MangaPlus. Before you ask, yes, the chapters will be available for free. You can check out the image announcing the series' return below: Image via Shueisha. But when will Chapter 381 debut? As the editions of Jump GiGA are released in three to four-month intervals, its Winter edition is likely to follow last year's example and only debut around August 2025. Black Clover is also not confirmed to be featured in it. Although, if that happens, it won't be a stretch to expect another double chapter release featuring chapters 381 and 382. Is the Black Clover anime series returning, too? Image via Pierrot, Inc. Unfortunately for all of us who are still not over that unholy cliffhanger, there have been no announcements or recent leaks regarding the return of the Black Clover anime. However, I would not be surprised if the series returns in a seasonal format. Apart from a better production value, that would make it easier to keep the series within the constraints of the manga and allow Yuki Tabata (its creator) to continue the story at his own pace without any unnecessary pressure or health risks.
