What Is The Sword Of The Wizard King?
The movie was in the making for a long time and now finally had a release date. The movie was delayed due to COVID-19 and was supposed to release in March 2023. However, the new and updated date of release is June 16, 2023. The movie is going to be released all over the world at the same time on Netflix which is an online streaming platform.
It may be difficult for fans who do not have a subscription to watch the movie, but there are alternatives. They can wait for the movie to release on other platforms. They can also watch the movie on sites like GoGoanime, which are free but have a lot of pop-up advertisements.
The plot of the movie is going to center around Asta, Yuno, Yami, and Julius Novachrono. The four heroes are going to battle the previous wizard kings. The major antagonist of the series is Conrad Leto. Conrad was the wizard king before Julius. He lost all respect of his people when he revolted against the clover kingdom. He plans to revive the three most feared wizard kings of the kingdom and rule over the kingdom.
What Is The Surprise For The Fans?
The fans were surprised when the studio announced that the ‘Black Clover’ series will not only have a movie to appease the fans but will also have a light novel. ‘The Sword Of The Wizard King’ will have a light novel based on it which will release soon. The light novel is set to release on June 9, 2023, a week before the release of the movie globally.
This news is quite shocking and a little unusual. Mostly, anime films are based on light novels. Light novels are generally the base for any anime and sometimes contain a further story from the manga. The unusual thing, in this case, is that the light novel is set to adapt after the movie and not the other way around. In most cases, it is the movie that is based on the light novel. But for ‘Black Clover’ it is the exact opposite. This however has delighted many fans. Fans who like to read manga or fans who cannot afford the subscription can easily figure out the movie plot by reading the light novel. This is why fans are very happy with this piece of news.
