“Black Clover” (written by Tabata Yuuki), which is serialized in “Weekly Shonen Jump”, is a popular title with a series total of over 10 million copies published.
The magical fantasy, set in a world where magic is everywhere, depicts Asta (voice: Kajiwara Gakuto), the boy who has no magical power, and his rival Yuno (voice: Shimazaki Nobunaga) striving to hold the title of “Wizard King”, which is given to the best magician.
Sakuma Daisuke from Snow Man, the group that sings the current opening theme of “Black Clover”, debuted as a voice actor in the anime as the original character “Maxa North”. He is known to be an anime freak and expressed his love for the series on Snow Man's YouTube channel. Fans were delighted about his appearance and congratulated his debut on Twitter.
