Is Black Clover Season 3 cancelled?

No, and there was never a Season 3 to cancel. No studio ever announced a Season 3. What happened is that Season 2 Part 2 was labelled The Final Season on 24 September 2026, because Season 2 adapts the manga all the way to its ending. Some outlets shortened that to cancelled, but it is a completion plan, not a cancellation.

When does Black Clover Season 2 Part 2 release?

Part 2 returns in 2027, and no exact date has been announced yet. Part 1, which covers the Spade Kingdom Raid arc, is expected to end around January 2027. This page will be updated the moment an exact Part 2 date is official.

How many episodes will Black Clover Season 2 have?

Season 2 runs for 26 episodes across two cours, adapting the remaining 123 chapters of the manga through chapter 392, including the Judgment Day finale.

Black Clover Season 2 Is the Final Season: No Season 3 Planned

The short answer first: there is no Black Clover Season 3 planned, because Season 2 is the final season. Season 2 adapts the manga all the way to its ending, and its second part carries the official label "The Final Season". To be plain about it, this is not a cancellation. No studio ever announced a Season 3, so there was never a Season 3 to cancel.

The short answer: Season 2 wraps the whole story, so no Season 3 is planned

If you have seen headlines saying Black Clover Season 3 is cancelled, this is where they come from. On 24 September 2026 it was confirmed that Part 2 of Season 2 will be billed as The Final Season. That label is the whole story: the anime ends because the manga's story ends inside Season 2, not because anyone pulled the plug.

What "Final Season" means, and what it does not mean

It means the adaptation is complete by design. Yuki Tabata's manga finished on 1 May 2026 with chapter 392, published in Jump GIGA's Spring edition, with a special chapter following on 4 August 2026 alongside volume 38. Season 2 exists to animate that ending. What the label does not mean is that the show failed or was cut short. A series that returns after a five year break to finish its story properly is the opposite of a cancellation.

The plan: 26 episodes, two cours, 123 chapters

Total: 26 episodes, split into two cours
Material: the remaining 123 chapters of the manga, through chapter 392
Part 1: the Spade Kingdom Raid arc, airing now
Part 2: The Final Season, including the Judgment Day finale

Season 2 returned on 3 October 2026, five years after the original TV run paused. Part 1 is expected to end around January 2027, and Part 2 follows in 2027, which means the anime as a whole could wrap up in 2027 or run into 2028 depending on the gap between cours. No exact Part 2 date has been announced, and we are not going to invent one.

Where the story stands after Episode 6

The full season picture, the watch order and every confirmed date live on our Black Clover Season 2 page.

When Part 2 returns, and when the anime could end

Part 2 is confirmed for 2027 with no exact date yet. Nothing else has been announced either: no movie, no spin-off, no continuation of any kind. If that changes, it will be announced officially first, and this article and the season page will be updated the same day.
