Before the grimoires were opened and the battle for the Wizard King title took the world by storm, there was a single chapter that started it all. Journey back to 2014 with the original Black Clover prototype that first lit up the pages of Jump NEXT! and witness the raw, unrefined energy of Yuki Tabatas breakout vision. This is the origin story where we first meet our loud-mouthed underdog and his stoic rival in a world where mana is everything and having none is a death sentence for your dreams. Packed with the high-intensity action and gut-busting comedy that defined a generation of shonen, this one-shot captures the pure heart of the series before it grew into a global powerhouse. Whether you are a long-time veteran or a new recruit looking for the roots of the legend, get ready for a pulse-pounding blast of magic that proves that being born with nothing is the best reason to fight for everything.
