Black Clover Season 2 Unveils Devil Union Asta Visual

Black Clover Season 2 released a character visual for Devil Union Asta on October 17, 2026, the day Episode 3 aired. The season premiered October 3, 2026, and streams worldwide on Crunchyroll.

The franchise had been dormant since Studio Pierrot's original adaptation ended in 2021 after 170 episodes. Season 2 is directed by Ayataka Tanemura, with Keiichiro Ochi on series composition. The opening theme, "Kienai Riyuu" by WANIMA, accompanies the return.

Devil Union marks a major power escalation for protagonist Asta. Releasing the visual after Episode 3 signals the anime is moving quickly through source material. The original Black Clover manga ran from 2015 to May 2023—eleven years of complete narrative for the adaptation team to work from.

This Season 2 revival follows Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King, which premiered June 16 and is now on Netflix. The film functioned as a soft relaunch, and the new season appears built to sustain that momentum.

Black Clover is back, and the anime is moving fast toward the transformative moments fans have waited for.
