A new pre-broadcast visual for Black Clover season 2 centers on Asta and the Dark Triad: Dante, Zenon and Vanica Zogratis. Voice cast comments accompanied the visual, including Rikiya Koyama as Dante, Tatsuhisa Suzuki as Zenon and Yui Ogura as Vanica. Advertisements for the season are on display in Ikebukuro Station's central passageway through Oct. 4. Ayataka Tanemura returns to direct.
The new visual puts Asta next to Dante, Zenon and Vanica Zogratis, the Dark Triad members named as the season's major antagonists, and the campaign around it runs beyond online promotion. Advertisements featuring Asta, Yuno, Noelle, Yami and Nacht occupy the central passageway of Ikebukuro Station in Tokyo through Oct. 4, according to the anime's official X account, with messages about their determination to never give up. The three antagonist voice actors also recorded comments for the release. Ayataka Tanemura, who directed episodes 153 through 170 of the original TV anime and the 2023 film Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King, returns as director.
