Among so many mages around the world of black clover, spreading across all 4 kingdoms, who might be the strongest mages? Well find out here. This is based on anime only content so far.

Black Clover

Black Clover is one of the most beloved next-gen anime and manga series. It amassed many fans from all over the world with its beautiful stories and awesome characters. The story of Black Clover takes place in a magical world, so it is only natural it boasts many strong characters, many of whom have gained a following since making an appearance in the series.

5. Asta

As someone who was born with no mana, Asta was looked down upon and shunned from a young age. However, his lack of mana did not stop him from training relentlessly to improve his physical strength, becoming one of the strongest characters on the show as a result. Asta possesses anti-magic, which he can use to dispel magic. Despite not having any mana, Asta is an Arcane Stage mage due to the mastery of his Anti Magic energy and the rarity of this ability in and of itself.

In addition, Asta can use Ki, a sixth sense, to detect and respond to originally undetectable threats and people. By controlling his Ki, Asta can also focus Anti Magic in his arm and quickly release it with a downward slash.

4. Yuno

Yuno is Asta’s rival, also wanting to become the Wizard King to cement himself as the most powerful mage in the Clover Kingdom. His talents are undeniable as he quickly rose in rank in his Magic Knight squad, eventually becoming th vice-captain. Many argue that he is more powerful than Asta but what is certain is that he is a better mage than Asta. Yuno has unreal levels of mana which he demonstrates in the early parts of the manga and anime.

Yuno is proficient in wind magic, creating and controlling wind gusts even before obtaining his four-leaf grimoire. He can use his magic to create whirlwinds that incapacitate his opponents and fly through the air. In addition, he can summon the wind spirit Sylph to help him in fights. When he and Sylph achieve 100% resonance, they move to the Saint Stage, a powerful state that only a few Magic Knights can contend.

3. Yami

The first captain of the Black Bull team of the Magic Knights, Yami Sukehiro, is a member of the Yami Clan from the Hino Country. Yami can create and control the element of darkness using his dark magic ability. He primarily uses his katana to channel his magic. His dark magic can attract other types of magic, specifically Light Magic, absorb it into the darkness, and even impact other dimensions.

Yami is classified as an Arcane Stage mage because his Dark Magic has a natural ability to influence other dimensions. Only extremely powerful Clover royals, the toughest elves, and high-ranking devils surpass Yami in terms of magic power. When Anti-birds become aware of his existence, they flee, and even a small display of his power can frighten even the strongest.

2. Licht

Licht is one of the ten Apostles of Sephirah and the head of the Elf Tribe. He was married to Tetia, a royal human, and was the brother-in-law of the first Wizard King, Prince Lemiel Silvamillion Clover. Licht decimates the Clover Kingdom after the Massacre of the Elf Tribe. Licht, after being betrayed, transforms into a demon and decimates the Clover Kingdom after the kingdom's royals massacre his tribe. The first Wizard King eventually kills him.

However, the Eye of the Midnight Sun successfully resurrected him centuries later. Due to him being born as an elf, Licht has a great deal of magical power. Licht can elevate himself and other people by concentrating incredibly enormous amounts of mana. Licht’s powers are so vast and dangerous that he has no trouble intimidating any opponent.

1. Julius Novochrono

As the 28th Wizard King of the Clover Kingdom, Julius is the strongest mage in the entire kingdom. Julius controls time using his time magic. He can speed up, slow down, stop, and reverse time. He is able to achieve this feat by stealing time from those he battles. He has saved up his stolen time as reserves, which he can draw upon whenever he pleases.

Furthermore, he can cast a spell that encompasses the entire Clover Kingdom thanks to his incredibly high levels of magic power. He can also "cure" wounds on himself and others by turning back the flow of time. Since Julius's Time Magic is erratic, his potential as a mage is immeasurable.
