Black Clover filler list: The episodes you can miss
The ultimate grimoire for unnecessary episodes.
For those that are looking to get stuck into classic anime series, the volume of episodes can sometimes feel a bit off-putting.
Thankfully, Black Clover doesn’t reach the level of the thousands, but its current episode count sits in the hefty hundreds. Following the manga of the same name created by Yūki Tabata, fans are still being treated to spin-offs of the story, while speculation for future anime episodes still hangs in the air.
The story follows a young boy called Asta, who has been born into a magical world without any powers. After receiving a powerful grimoire that makes him completely resistant to magic, Asta sets off on a journey with a group of mages to try and become the next Wizard King.
While the series is still a popular favourite for many, not all of the show’s episodes need to be rewatched. Here’s everything you need to know about which Black Clover episodes can be totally missed.

Black Clover filler list: Which episodes can be skipped?
At the same time, not every Black Clover episode is a doozy.
In true anime style, Black Clover has relied on episode recaps and filler episodes to remind fans of the story so far. Some other episodes also don’t tell us much in terms of new information, meaning fans can totally skip them while still understanding the bulk of the plot.
Get ready to fast-forward the episodes listed below:
- Episode 29 - Path
- Episode 66 - The Secret of the Eye of the Midnight Sun
- Episode 68 - The Battle to the Death?! Yami vs. Jack

It’s worth pointing out that Black Clover’s films also don’t need to be watched in order to understand the anime series. However, they do add context to what happens to Asta and the gang after the episodic drama wraps up. You can find a full watchlist for Black Clover here.
