Black Clover (ブラッククローバー)

It appeared as though humanity would be destroyed by the demons.

But a single mage saved them all.

He was called the Wizard King, and he became a legend.

The One I've Set My Heart On

Finral Roulacase, a member of the Black Bulls Magic Knights Squad, was troubled.

It was a very important matter.

What do I do? What should I do?

Finral's troubles had nothing to do with a mission...

...about tonight's mixer?

A mixer, meaning a gathering between men and women.

It is a dinner intended to help men and women get acquainted.

When I set this up, three girls agreed to come, and that's great!

The more girls, the merrier!

But the problem is who else I'm going to bring.

Asta's a delight, so I'm bringing him for sure. I just need one more...

Hup!

Flame Magic:

Exploding...

Fireball!

Home run!

Didja see that?

This is what truly makes a man!

Yeah, no. I know there are girls who like delinquents, but...

Pleased to meet ya! My Crazy Cyclone's on fire!

This is what truly makes a man! Brr-r-r-rm, brr-r-r-rm!

Magna's too much of a delinquent. He'd just scare them off.

Almost... I'm almost done

with my life-size statue of Marie.

Ah, Marie. It feels like you're right next to me!

My beloved little sister, Marie!

Ah, you truly are an angel!

Yeah, no. Even if I took him to a mixer...

Marie's more of an angel than any of you.

I want to have a mixer with a hundred Maries.

Yes. Marie was already an angel before she was even born.

Ugh... A sister complex?

Really?

He'd definitely scare them away!

I heard that you were having a mixer.

You want me to come with you?

Yeah, I have no idea what Gordon's thinking, so that's not happening.

No, really. You don't need to hold back. It's not as if I don't like girls.

It might be fun to bring Charmy along, since she's sort of like a mascot character.

But...

Munchy, munchy, munchy, munchy...

This is so yummy, too!

Excuse me, could I get seconds?

I do apologize. It's only been five minutes since we opened,

but we're out of ingredients, so we must close for the day.

D'oh!

The mixer'd be over in five minutes!

At least, that's what I assume would happen.

Maybe I could take Vanessa...

But she's a woman!

Let's not.

Now this is paradise.

Maybe I could go all-out and invite Yami...

I'm sure there are girls who like older guys.

Yami does hate gaudy types, though.

Why the hell are you three dressed like that, huh?

Aren't you showing too much skin?

What if you catch a cold? Put something warm over your stomachs!

Uh...

Not happening.

So overbearing.

Maybe not.

Basically, that leaves...

A mixer? Yeah, sure.

Great! Thanks for agreeing to come.

Well, Luck looks decent, so I'm sure things will work out.

So, what's a mixer, anyway?

Will this actually work out?

All right, it looks like we're all set.

Should we go dressed like this?

We have to make sure they know that we're Magic Knights.

Magic Knights are the most admired figures in the Clover Kingdom, after all.

Got it!

Are mixers strong? I'm so excited!

Yeah! I'm excited, too!

Well, let's go.

Come on. Hurry on through.

Got it!

Can I go, too? I promise I won't get in the way...

City in the Common Realm: Nean

Hup!

I-I'm in the clear.

Sneak... Sneak, sneak... Sneak, sneak, sneak.

When I heard they were going to a mixer,

I was so worried, I ended up following them.

I can't believe this. Why are they going to a mixer?

This is the problem with lowly fools.

I-I mean, it's not as if I like that muscle-brained shrimp or anything!

I don't care who he hangs out with or what happens after that!

Wait, who am I even making excuses to?!

I'm pretty sure it was somewhere around here.

Oh, there it is!

Pub Mibawau

Okay! Looks like we all have our drinks, so let's get right to the introductions!

I'll go ahead and start.

Finral Roulacase 21-Year-Old Member of the Black Bulls From Touta

I'm 21 years old and from Touta!

I'm Finral Roulacase, the spatial magic user from the Black Bulls!

Nice to meet you!

These are freshly picked moon blossoms.

Please take them as a token of our friendship.

Wow! They're beautiful!

These only bloom at night on Mount Anahu, right?

They smell so nice!

Thanks...

Hook, line, and sinker! I'm finally going to get a girlfriend!

But for that to happen, I need both Asta and Luck to do their best.

Go on, introduce yourselves.

Introduce myself...

Am I just supposed to say what I like?

Okay.

Luck Voltia 18-Year-Old Member of the Black Bulls From Ibon

I'm Luck Voltia, and I'm 18 years old. I'm from Ibon and belong to the Black Bulls.

My hobbies include fighting tough enemies in bloody, mortal combat!

Isn't "fighting for your life" a wonderful phrase?

Introduce myself... A manly man should probably talk about his dreams.

Right...

Asta 15-Year-Old Member of the Black Bulls From Hage Village

I-I'm Asta. I'm fifteen. I'm from Hage Village. I'm a member of the Black Bulls!

Um... my dream is to become the Wizard King someday!

The Wizard King?

That'll never happen. He's just a kid, anyway.

These two seem kinda...

How d'ya like these biceps?

...sketchy.

I mean, I heard they'd be Magic Knights,

but they just had to be Black Bulls, the lowest of the low?

And if he's from Hage, isn't he a peasant?

Like, a total peasant?

I'd never go out with any of these guys if they didn't earn more than me.

And if they're younger, shorter, and socially beneath me...

Not happening.

Crap... This seems to be going south.

Okay! We've introduced ourselves, so now it's your turn, girls!

Let's keep things rolling! Yeah!

We're passing the baton to you!

Um... We're friends.

Rebecca Scarlet

Helene Barbary

Erika Sitate

I'm Erika. I work at a dressmaker shop.

I'm Helene, and I work as a hairdresser.

Rebecca. I work at a restaurant.

They're clearly losing interest!

Wow, so you all have solid jobs. That's great!

Say, I'd love to hear about your work.

I'd love it if you made some clothes for me. What do you think would look good on me?

Maybe you could cut my hair sometime.

I've been thinking of changing up my hairstyle.

Could I eat at your place sometime?

No reaction whatsoever! I need to think of something they'd be interested in!

W-Want to hear about the Magic Knights?

Yeah, tell us!

I'd love to!

Bingo!

That's great to hear. Well, I use spatial magic to go to all sorts of places.

Something I've done recently at my job...

Yes?

Crap.

Hey. Send me to the john.

Yes, sir.

Hey. Send me to the bath.

Yes, sir.

Hey. Send me to my bed.

Yes, sir.

I don't think I've done anything lately other than move Yami around.

Luck! You've been working hard! What have you done recently?

Me?

Tell them something interesting you've done at work lately.

Helene and the other girls really want to know.

Work, huh? Let's see... Oh!

The other day, we ran into a group of ten bandits...

Yes, and?

...and I beat them all to a pulp!

It was so brutal! And so much fun!

I could've easily killed them all, but I just broke three of their bones.

It completely backfired!

Oh, and when I fought this mage, I—

Right. Thanks, Luck!

Now, go on and eat up, my boy!

Oh, I'm done?

I'd love to hear what Asta's been up to!

You protected the people of the royal capital, didn't you? Great job!

Y-Yes! I did!

Oh, you mean the incident the other day?

When the capital was attacked?

Yup! Asta worked really hard and got promoted!

Really?

Hey, this is going well. We just need to keep taking the conversation in this direction!

You must be amazing!

Well, I didn't manage to protect myself. They put three holes in me.
