some of the most jaw-dropping fights in Black Clover. Most magic types are more than they appear to be too, giving characters a chance to break through their current limits and defeat their enemies in style.
Magic types define their characters in Black Clover. If a character has a weak magic type, they probably won't be able to do much in battle. With a strong magic type, however, certain Black Clover characters can start wars by themselves, or in Julius Novachrono's case, save the lives of everybody in the Clover Kingdom.
10 Gravity Magic
Gravity Magic Devastated the Black Bulls
Gravity Magic is a straightforward magic type in Black Clover. It allows its , Dante Zogratis, the ability to manipulate the surrounding gravity. He uses it with brutal proficiency when he goes to capture Yami. Dante's Gravity Magic allows him to cast spells like Heavy Infighting and Heavy Infighting Gladiator, two spells that allow him to both increase and decrease his own gravity while he fights. When he throws a punch, he lessens his own gravity to increase its speed. Just before it lands, however, he increases gravity so that the blow lands with even more power.
Black Clover Did Not Copy Naruto, It Improved It For Modern Times
Although it's often called a Naruto copycat, Black Clover and characters like Asta would foretell today's most prevalent themes and mechanics
Gravity Magic makes Dante look like the king he wants everyone to think he is. One of Dante's signature spells in Presence of the Demon King, where the Spade Kingdom leader increasing gravity so much, his opponents can't help but bow.
9 Kotodama Magic (Word Magic)
Strong Enough to Stand Against Licht and Lumiere
Zagred's Kotodama Magic was strong enough to fight Lumiere, Licht, Yuno, and Asta all at once. Even without his Grimoire open, Zagred was able to dominate his enemies with nothing more than a couple of words. Kotodama Magic works by giving its the ability to make their speech come true. While Zagred can't command his enemies to simply die, he can use Kotodama Magic to throw them around a room like a ragdoll. Zagred also used his magic to summon a trident while fighting the first Wizard King, severing his arm in the process.
Zagred can also use his magic to summon a magic-absorbing field, negating all the attacks that come his way. If it wasn't for the unison of the strongest Magic Knights from the past and present, Zagred and his Kotodama Magic wouldn't have been stopped for a long time.
8 Blood Magic
An Incredible Offense and Defense
Both the Witch Queen and Vanica Zogratis use Blood Magic, and they're two of the most powerful women in Black Clover because of it. Blood Magic is unique in that it's great for both offense and defense. While Yami's Dark Magic really only allows him to be on the attack, the Witch Queen used her Blood Magic to break Asta's curse. She was also able to manipulate his body like a puppet because of the spell as well, giving it a third layer of utility. If it wasn't for Asta's Anti Magic, the Black Bulls would have been at the Witch Queen's mercy.
Vanica uses Blood Magic menacingly. She can summon her Red Beast to dominate battles quickly. Because it's made of blood, she can heal it before her opponents have a chance to deal real damage.
7 Thread Magic
Vanessa's Magic Rewrites Reality
Thread Magic is one of the most exciting and unique magic types in Black Clover. It's used by one of the Black Clover, Vanessa Enoteca. Her Thread Magic gives her the ability to rewrite fate itself. If one of her allies is about to be beheaded, she can use her red cat, Rouge, to gently tap them, changing the situation as if it never happened. She uses her ability perfectly against the Witch Queen when her former leader was controlling Asta.
Even outside changing reality, Thread Magic is useful in all types of situations. Vanessa can use it to capture her enemies sneakily, give her allies somewhere to land if they fall, and she can even use it to control people, just like the Witch Queen's Blood Magic. Vanessa is still learning how to use her Thread Magic, but once she masters it, she'll easily be one of the strongest characters in the series.
6 Spatial Magic
Zenon Uses Spatial Magic Ruthlessly
Like Thread Magic, Spatial Magic is more than a set of offensive spells. Spatial Magic is one of the most commonly used magic types in the series, with each character putting their own spin on their set of spells. Some of the most popular characters to use Spatial Magic include Zenon Zogratis, Finral Roulacase, Langris Vaude, Galleo, Rhya, and Valtos. Finral's Spatial Magic specializes in transportation. He's able to manipulate both his and his opponent's positions on the battlefield to create advantages for his allies.
10 Best Fights In Black Clover
Black Clover is one of the best shonen manga in the current era, owing its popularity partially to extraordinary fights.
Langris, on the other hand, uses his Spatial Magic lethally. He's able to teleport anything his Spatial Magic touches out of existence entirely. Zenon Zogratis uses his Spatial Magic in tandem with his Bone Magic to teleport across the battlefield and defeat his enemies before they even knew he was coming.
5 Spirit Magic
A Magic Enhancer and Strong on Its Own
Spirit Magic stands out in Black Clover as it's both its own magic type and an enhancement of a character's current magic type. There are only three spirits currently in the series: Sylph the Spirit of Wind who serves Yuno, Salamander the Spirit of Fire who serves Fuegoleon, and Undine the Spirit of Water who serves Lolopechika. Each of the spirits gives their hosts new abilities and can combine with their hosts to create powerful combination spells as well.
Some of Yuno's most powerful spells are when he uses Sylph for assistance. He can cast Sylph's Breath to send a massive wind bullet toward his opponents or use the Spirit of Zephyr to summon a giant two-handed sword that can cut his enemies in two. Lolopechika and Undine combine for Ludic Sanctuary, a powerful Spirit Magic spell where the pair traps their enemy in a huge body of water, diluting their opponent's magic.
4 Light Magic
Fast and Strong in Equal Measures
Light-based abilities are usually some of the strongest in any series they're in, and Black Clover is no exception. There aren't many characters in the series who can manipulate light, and the ones that can are some of the strongest. The most notable of Light Magic in Black Clover is the first Wizard King, Lumiere Silvamillion Clover. He uses his Light Magic both offensively and as a means of transportation, making him one of the fastest Magic Knights in history.
One of Lumiere's signature Light abilities is the Lamp of Avior, where Lumiere concentrates a huge amount of light around himself before sending it straight at his opponent. It's powerful enough to stop entire tornadoes from moving. Patry was able to use Light Magic when he reincarnated as well, and was able to use it well enough to kill the current Wizard King, Julius Novachrono.
3 Dark Magic
Yami's Magic Cuts Through Dimensions
Yami Sukehiro is one of the coolest characters in anime, and his Dark Magic abilities only make him cooler. Out of all the magic types in Black Clover, Dark Magic might be the most versatile. Yami can use his Dark Magic offensively, defensively, and even supplementary. It's at its most powerful when Yami is at his limits however, as the Captain of the Black Bulls is always able to sur his limits for his squad. Yami's Dark Magic is so powerful it can cut through entire dimensions.
One of Yami's most powerful Dark Magic spells is his Dark Cloaked Dimension Slash: Equinox where Yami uses the surrounding mana to increase his Dark Cloaked Dimension Slash even further, slicing everything in this reality and the next in half. He can also use his Death Thrust to almost explode his enemies with Dark Magic.
2 Time Magic
Julius Can Beat His Opponents Before the Battle Begins
Time Magic is easily one of the strongest Magic Types in the series in concept alone. Julius Novachrono, the sole of Time Magic, can end battles before they even begin. His Time Magic is so fast it can even capture Light Magic. Julius hasn't put too many of his spells on display because he hasn't had to. By using his Chrono Stasis spell, he can capture anybody is a ball of time itself, freezing them from doing anything. When Patry tried to use his Light Magic to kill everyone in the Clover Kingdom, Julius stopped him with a single spell.
15 Best Anime Series Every Black Clover Fan Needs to Watch
For their fantasy setting, magic system, and protagonists who seek to sur themselves, these animes are a must-watch for every fan of Black Clover.
Time Magic is so powerful that Julius used it to cheat death itself. He stored so much time from fighting his enemies that after he died, he was resurrected as his 13-year-old self. Time Magic is the only magic in the series proven to beat Light Magic and death, and who knows what else the Wizard King will be able to do with it going forward.
1 Anti Magic
Asta's Anti Magic Can Negate Every Type of Magic
Asta's Anti Magic is the strongest magic type in Black Clover. Even if his opponents use Blood Magic to manipulate his body, Time Magic to freeze him, or Light Magic to attack him, he can negate it all with a single swing of his sword. His Anti Magic beats all other types of magic in its very nature. Asta best uses his Anti Magic through his demon swords. His Demon-Slasher Katana, gifted to him by Black Bulls Captain Yami Sukehiro, can send flying slashes of Anti Magic towards his enemies and their spells.
The Demon-Dweller Sword, formally used by one of the best elves in anime Licht, can absord spells and send them towards his enemies. While all of his swords allow Asta to use his Anti Magic, none are as exciting as the Demon-Slayer Sword. It's a greatsword so big, Asta can use his Anti Magic to fly on it. He can also grow the sword tremendously in size, bringing it down on his opponents in one-fell-swoop just like his Captain would.
