Do you watch Black Clover? I tried watching it, and the story interested me, but Asta yelles SO MUCH. I couldn't deal with it. I thought Naruto yelled a lot 😆
Yeah, I watch it on Toonami. It’s honestly not that bad of a show, but I think that they chose the wrong studio to animate the series. SP does the show justice at certain points like when it comes to certain fight sequences, but other than that, the series comes off very lackluster for me. The anime could be better, but then again I’m at the beginning with the water temple arc.
Asta does yell A LOT and at first, that was a major turn off for me, but he’s actually one of the few redeeming characters for me in the series. Captain Yami is actually my favorite character out the entire series with Noelle being my least favorite. She’s honestly as bad as everyone makes Sakura out to be in Naruto since you brought him up lol.
Now I know you didn’t ask for all this much info, but I just need to vent about the show since you asked about it lol. While I like the series so far and some of its characters and the story, there are many things I also dislike about it aside from Asta’s constant unnecessary yelling. One thing I don’t like that’s kind of major but also insignificant is that most if not all of the characters that are given a character personality or something, they overplay that trait to a T. For instance, Noelle is a tsundere towards Asta and everyone she meets. They take the definition of tsundere and crank it up to 100% and make her out to be unnecessarily mean towards people and Asta for no reason other than she’s the disgraced royal, granted she does have her nice moments. She does to others what her family does to her with no thought whatsoever. Another example is the Eye of the Midnight Sun guys. Each of them represents Despair, Rage, and something else, and instead of giving them personality, they make them repeat what they represent over and over and make them a machine that defines the meaning of the word they are characterized around. If you are going to make a group of villains, give them actual personality and not just one trait. If you are going to make characters with reasons why they are the way they are, give them more personality than just that one thing. It’s an irritating thing when you know that there are other anime and shows out there that don’t make their characters as one dimensional as Black Clovers.
Now since this is getting longer than I thought it would, another thing I don’t like about the show that I’ve already mentioned above is how lackluster things seem to be. For example, when Asta, Noelle, and Luck are sent to that cave in search of treasure indirectly along with Yuno, Mimosa, and Klaus, they end up having this big blowout with a rival kingdom or nation and the big baddie there is supposed to be wicked powerful. When they have him bust out these big moves that at first make you go wow, they somehow find a way to kill that little spark of amazement in mere seconds. When Magna Asta and Noelle save the village and Noelle does her first semi-useful and awe-inspiring thing in the entire series, they have a way of killing the excitement again and make the win so lame. So far, the first and only good fight that I’ve seen in the entire thing was when Yami went up against Licht before the other captains arrived. That was an exciting fight to watch and the runner-up (barely) is when Asta started to fight the Beast dude that overplays and says the word Despair from the Midnight Sun in the water temple arc. But anyway, my point is, if this show is trying to keep the buildup going, they need to do more for their action scenes instead of just pulling a Dragon Ball Z and have them do the same thing over and over until an asspull supposed to be flashy win happens after all of your excitement is drained away.
Now I know I may have made the show sound way more unappealing than it actually is, but I honestly think you should give it another try and try to push aside Asta’s mouth. You get used to it after a while and it actually makes him quite endearing when the purpose serves. And judging from what’s being posted on here right now on the Black Clover tag, it looks like things are getting more interesting and Noelle’s character is actually starting to pull her own weight and grow from a part one Sakura. I’m actually looking forward to seeing more, so I hope you get back to it. Let me know what you think if you continue! Thank you for reading my long ramble over such a simple ask! Lol
