Black Clover reveals a way to continue the story after the manga series ends

In the world of manga and anime, it’s not uncommon for fans to speculate about what could have been in a series if the creator hadn’t announced its final arc. Black Clover, the popular manga and anime series created by Yuki Tabata, is no exception. In chapter 351 of the manga, Tabata gave fans a glimpse of what the next arc could have been if he hadn’t announced that this was the final one.

In the chapter, readers are taken on a flashback to another country’s equivalent to the Wizard King, inadvertently revealing how Black Clover could have continued if the series creator hadn’t announced its final arc. The flashback reveals that the shogun Ryu of Yami’s home country of Hino in Black Clover saved his people from a disease that only killed those with weak magical powers. The shogun sacrificed his own magical abilities to obtain an eye called Tengentsu, which allowed him to find the only cure – soul-quickening grass.

This unexpected flashback could have been a form of foreshadowing for a future arc if Black Clover wasn’t ending. Although the series is still ongoing, it’s obvious that Black Clover will likely end with Asta attaining his dream by becoming the Wizard King of the Clover Kingdom. But because Asta possesses little to no magical powers himself, he would be highly susceptible to the disease that Ryu initially cured if it ever resurfaced again. This hypothetical arc could have involved Asta succumbing to the disease, and his friends or the next generation venturing out to find soul-quickening grass.

Of course, the only way for this plot to work would be for Ryu to have either passed away or somehow lost Tengentsu, complicating the search party’s ability to locate and obtain the soul-quickening grass. There would also have to be a reasonable explanation as to why Hino Country no longer has any soul-quickening grass in their possession. This development is actually not so farfetched when taking into account how most manga, including Black Clover, function.

Manga are normally celebrated for going out of their way to foreshadow entire arcs and sagas within their ongoing story to create a sense of continuity. Ryu’s flashback also aligns almost too perfectly with Black Clover’s main protagonist and his own proprietary attributes to the point where not addressing the correlation would be sacrilegious.

Interestingly, such a plot line would draw parallels to the popular Naruto series. In the Naruto light novel “Sasuke’s Story: The Uchiha and the Heavenly Stardust,” Sasuke and Sakura search for a cure to a disease that has only afflicted the protagonist of their world, Naruto. Many have pointed out the many parallels between both series, the latest being when Yami’s past in Black Clover shared a resemblance to Itachi’s in Naruto.

Black Clover adopting a storyline where heroes must search for a cure that has afflicted Asta would continue the conversation. However, it remains to be seen if Yuki Tabata will decide to bring Black Clover back after his final arc or not. Only time will tell.
