you know in Black Clover Finral really is an incredibly interesting character because of the way his magic works, especially in comparison to the other members of his family. Finral's family is renowned for their use of spatial magic in combat, with his brother Langris as their little combat prodigy, but Finral doesn't fit in that role. his magic is much more simple, and much more useless for direct combat: all it does is create portals to places Finral has been. It doesn't make any sense at first glance: how could someone with such weak spatial magic come from a family whos specialty is combat using spatial magic? but when you consider finral's personality and the way he uses his magic, everything starts to make a lot more sense.
right out the gate, in the first fight he gets caught in, we're shown that finral is a coward. when he transports Gauche to where Yami and Patry are fighting, his first instinct is to just run away, and this instinct is amplified when the third eye show up. and later on, in the underwater temple, while everyone else is running around picking fights with the mages so that they can get out as fast as possible, Finral is shown just hiding and avoiding combat at all cost. and yet, when Asta starts to fight Vetto, he steels himself and joins in the fight. its in this fight that we see where finral strength lies: not in fighting himself - he's much too weak for that - but in supporting his allies. and a little after this, we're shown the other part of his personality that affects his magic: Finral's kindness. when Langris is insulting and belittling Asta and the other black bulls, finral, for what seems to be the first time, stands up to his brother for the sake of helping his friends. and its from this point onwards that we can see how this affects the way Finral's magic grows. the next spell finral learns how to use is Fallen Angel's Wingbeat, which does nothing more than moving his opponent somewhere else. the first time he uses this spell is against Langris, who, during this fight at least, had the clear intent of hurting Finral beyond the help of any healing magic, if not just killing him outright. and yet, despite being up against this person who hated him and pushed him away and treated him like he was nothing, Finral still can't bring himself to hurt his brother. through flashbacks, we're shown that through their entire childhood, Finral kept trying to reach out to and befriend Langris, despite the way Langris treated him. Finral even says it himself when fighting Langris: he doesnt want to hurt his brother, he just wants to save Langris from what he's going to become. this kindness goes even further than that, because after Langris is taken over by Latry, Finral says he felt guilty and partially responsible for the way Langris ended up, because even though Finral knew Langris was lonely, he left Langris behind. thats why instead of letting jack and yami take down latry by force and potentially let them hurt Langris, Finral instead takes latry out himself, and reaches his hand out to Langris one final time - and Langris finally accepts.
idk man I think abt this stuff a lot and this probably doesnt make any sense but I need to write it down so I dont forget. anyway the point is that Finral, despite everything his family put him through, remained so kind and gentle, and instead of it blowing up in his face and ending up with Finral being labeled as the naive character, it pays off with Finral and Langris finally reaching an understanding, and with the two having the type of relationship Finral tried so hard to have with his brother for so long. I just think thats great.

who are your favorite top ten black clover characters & ships? talk about them! ~tat
Ooh this will be fun. I'm not sure I'll have as much to say as some other people who have been asked this question, but I hope it's ok!
Top 10 Black Clover Characters
1. Mereoleona Vermillion
Tumblr media
I could rant for hours about how much I love this woman. She's very strong and doesn't give a damn about status, which I love about her. Like almost all the females in Black Clover, she isn't overly sexualized or dependent on a man in some way. I love her character design, her magic, and everything. I think I'm a little obsessed with this woman honestly.
2. Noelle Silva
Tumblr media
A typical female shonen character that's part of the main guy's harem. What I love about Noelle is her development. She goes from a royal who hates commoners to a strong female lead that accepts anyone for who they are. I haven't watched all the anime in the world, but from what I've seen, she's gotten the best development of any shonen female. If there's another one out there, please let me know. I love that Noelle's character development isn't over. I can't wait to see where she ends up by the end of the series.
3. Asta
Tumblr media
Our gray-clad hero. A typical shonen protagonist with a never give up mentality. I really love that about Asta. Asta's mental strength is off the charts. He was able to dealing with people bullying him his entire life over something he had no control over. And yet, he continues pushing onward to change the dynamics of the Clover Kingdom. What a brave boy. Of course, with mental strength like that, it makes sense his brain can't keep up in other areas. I love how much of a simpleton Asta can be. It makes him more endearing. Asta's character even inspires me to push past my own limits and never give up on my dreams.
4. William Vangeance
Tumblr media
A sweet, quiet man with a deadly secret. I love his origin story and how it has affected his life to this day. The main thing I love is how complex his character becomes. From a top captain to a man struggling living with another soul in his body that defies the ideals and people he believes in, William is complex. I couldn't imagine living with another soul in my body for about 15ish years. Dealing with this all alone without going insane marks William as another mentally strong character. Choosing between the mentor that saved you and gave you a new life and the best friend who's shared your body for longer than you've know your mentor must be a very difficult decision to make. I'm not surprised William wasn't able to choose between them. I hope both William and Patry get a good redemption arc.
5. Finral Roulacase
Tumblr media
A typical playboy character. He's cute, funny, and relatable. I tend not to like playboy characters, but Finral is different. He believes all women should be worshipped and treated like princesses, and he actually has a backstory. Having a sibling who is better than you in all ways reminds me of Zuko and Azula from Avatar. Despite dealing with his parents disappointment and his sibling's sneering his whole life, Finral never turned evil or tried to get revenge. At first, he ran from his problems, but with the help of the Black Bulls, he conquered his fears and grows stronger each day. I really love this boy.
6. Nozel Silva
Tumblr media
LOOKS AT HIM HE'S SO FUCKING CUTE DJJSJDJAJJS! Ok rant over. As a royal, I never expected Nozel to have a reason for treating Noelle the way he did. Granted, I don't approve of it at all, but I love that he's working to change. He's also very stoic and strong. Nozel has a cold exterior that can be broken over time. That's what Asta did to this Silver Eagle. Now, Nozel is rivals with 2 commoners. I love that he's changing to be better with Noelle. I can't surroort how he treated Noelle before, but I love that he's working to change his relationship with her. Also, his braid is so majestic. I had a dream and the whole dream was me staring at Nozel's majestic braid flowing in the breeze. I love this handsome man.
7. Yami Sukehiro
Tumblr media
This man. Thiiiiis man. He is glorious. He's funny, smart, grumpy, and strong. I love him for all the reasons everyone else does. The main thing I love about Yami is the vibe he gives off. When I see Yami, I see a shonen protagonist who has completed their journey and gives advice to the newest generation of protagonists. He's such a well-rounded character. I would live a spin-off series of Yami's adventures when he was young. That would really sell.
8. Fuegoleon/Leopold Vermillion
Tumblr media Tumblr media
THEY'RE BOTH SO PRECIOUS
Fuegoleon: I love this man. Such an inspiration. Just like his other siblings, he doesn't care about status. My favourite line if his is: "There isn't any shame is being weak. The shame is in staying weak." This line can really apply to anything in life. He also inspires me to do better.
Leopold: BABY. Ahem. I love his spunky personality. He's makes me think of Asta had he been born into a royal family. I love that, even though he's a royal, he has his own issues to deal with: making his own way in life and not having to live in his siblings' shadow. He's just a precious bean that requires protection.
9. Klaus Lunettes/Julius Novachrono
I RAN OUT OF PIC SPACE
Anyway, I love these boys. So good.
Klaus: Mom friends are the best kind of friends. I love that he changed because he witnessed Asta and Yuno's abilities and decided these boys were strong. They weren't cheating in any way. He was the first noble to change his ways and believe is Asta and Yuno, and I really love him for that.
Julius: A man working to change his country. We love that. I love that Julius is working towards a country where everyone tears each other as equals. That's a hard task to take on, yet Julius didn't hesitate and took the challenge head-on. Also he's hot...
10. Dorothy Unsworth/Yuno
I love these babies so much.
Dorothy: Hot, short, and powerful. My spirit animal. She's hella strong and shows us that you don't need to be a big strong man to be a powerful leader. Also, she sleeps a lot, which is something I desire more of in life.
Yuno: UwU baby. Hot, strong, and stoic. What more do you need? I love his HEALTHY rivalry with Asta. It's such a joy to watch him grow side-by-side with Asta. I love him so much that I'm not even sure who I want to become the Wizard King in the end. Can we have them both be Wizard Kings?
I don't have a top 10 list of ships, but I do have ships. I'll just talk about them in no particular order.
Mereoleona x William
I love this ship because opposites attract. But if someone tells me they ship William and Patry, I'm not going to argue. Overall, this ship would make both these characters even better than they are now.
Dorothy x Nozel
I get Hinata/Kageyama vibes from this ship. A small, eager baby with a tall, stoic and distant partner. The main reason I ship this is because of the fact that Dorothy knows about what happened to Acier. Nozel wouldn't tell just anyone about that. He must trust Dorothy a huge amount for her to know that information. A royal wouldn't share his darkest family secret with a lavender-haired witch from another country. Also, after the time skip, they both changed a part of their outfits for feathers of the bird corresponding their squad. They got feathers together!
Finral x Vanessa
After the seabed temple arc, I shipped these two. They have such a wholesome relationship that makes them better people. They're so cute together! What else can I say?
Asta x Noelle
I love how much they help each other become better. Asta is doesn't realize it yet, but he cares about Noelle more than he realizes. Noelle fell for Asta because he was the first person to ever say anything good about her magic. I just love these two. They're so cute!
Yami x Charlotte
I get the same vibes from this as I get from Asta x Noelle. A tsundere and an oblivious protagonist. I love this ship for the same reasons as Asta x Noelle. I won't repeat what I said before, so read the reasoning for Asta x Noelle. I love these two as well!
Grey x Gauche
I love the reasoning for Grey loving Gauche. I totally see Gauche being as protective of Grey as he is with Marie. Grey might help Gauche loosen up a bit with Marie. These two are just really cute, ok.
I can't think of any more ships, but yeah. Those are my favourite black clover characters and my favourite ships.

First: congratulation for the milestone & keep up (y) ! Second: who are your top ten favorite black clover characters and ships (platonic or romantic)? talk about them! (yes I already sent you this ask earlier this year but you were behind in the anime and I thought you may enjoy answering this again)
Hello again! 🥰🥰 I'm glad to hear from you again! I hope you've been well! ❤️
My top ten are obviously affected by those characters that we have seen more of recently. That's why some characters have dropped off the list in favour of new characters or have dropped further down / gone further up. (Sorry Mimosa and Noelle, I still love you!)
It became a little long, so I put it under a readmore!
1. Mereoleona Vermillion
Mereoleona continues my strong favourite due to her passionate way of living, fiery attitude and absolutely chaotic nature! She is strong, encouraging (though not always in kindest way) and she steals my heart away.
Honorary mention: As I like Mereoleona, so do I like Fuegoleon, and their dynamics together. Fuegoleon is the charismatic leadertype, and I'm glad they let it show in the manga/anime!
2. Charlotte Roselei
Especially now that I've written for her, Charlotte has a special place in my heart. I really think she is an amazing character, and her slowly modifying and overpowering her own curse is just - badass. I quite like my own headcanons for her (her being a perfectionist / really caring for the girls in her squad and being protective of them / having a tendency towards wanting to be in control) and they've solidified my image of her.
3. Finral Roulacase
Finral is such a sweet and caring boy, who is really growing to his powers. The recent chapters where he fights alongside Langris got my really excited: I really liked them and would've liked to have seen more! I am a sucker for "I'm good for nothing" characters starting to believe in themselves and prove others wrong and for sibling dynamics.
Honorary mention: Langris has really started to grow on me as well. What an arrogant, sweet boy. Stop insulting your brother and tell him you love him too.
4. William Vangeance
There's something about tragedy that compels me. William made horrible decisions in his life while trying to still be kind and do his best for the nation. It's fascinating to me how he thought this would work out. I like to imagine that he really is a gentle soul, but just horribly, horribly mistaken about some steps he took in life. Like...a lot of them.
5. Nacht Faust
See above: there's something about tragedy. He is such an edgy character and reminds me of a friend I knew once - never believed in good in people, but believed that people can do good things. Maybe that's why I like Nacht.
Honorary mention: Morgen, Morgen, Morgen, I loved you and I wish you were still here. He would easily be at the top of this list if he just...you know, appeared.
6. Grey
Grey is another one of those characters who are slowly growing on me. She is so adorable and sweet, and she is slowly coming out of her shell. It's amazing! I can't wait to figure out what's going on with her powers.
7. Gadjah
He is dutiful, he is almost deadpan, he is protective and just...a good person. I really like that. He is loyal, and I like loyalty. His good looks definitely add to the picture as well...
8. Dorothy Unsworth
I'm a little sad that we haven't gotten as much from Dorothy, but I am hoping it is still coming...maybe? Please? She is intriguing with her bright persona in dream-space (and sometimes out of it), and I really like her design. She is so fluffy!
9. Vanessa Enoteca
Vanessa is given the flirty stereotype, but I am so glad she was given so much more than that: she is resourceful and independent despite her origins (where becoming dependent on other people could've happened very easily!). I wonder where her story will go.
10. Marx Francois / Magna Swing
I have a soft spot for Marx, but also for Magna. Both are hard-workers who I feel are not always appreciated as much as they should be. They are very different characters, but this one part really endears them to me. Go Magna! Go Marx!
Then to relationships. These are a little more difficult for me, and majority might be platonic! I didn't quite have 10 that came to mind, so have 8 instead
1. Platonic Finral & Langris
The brothers are slooooooowly bonding! I talked about this already at Finral's place, but I just really, really like that they are slowly reconciling the trauma their parents gave them.
2. Platonic Finral & Vanessa
They have great synergy whether just joking around or actually fighting. I've loved the composition of them for such a long time. I can just imagine them complaining to each other while lying on the sofa, or Vanessa teasing Finral, or her giving him tips to style his hair - the possibilities are endless!
3. Platonic Mereoleona & Fuegoleon
They butt heads, they argue, they protect each other, they care for each other. A truly feisty sibling dynamic, but one that still lets it shine through that they like each other. They grew up together and had normal sibling rivalry and jealousy and stuff. It makes me feel bad a little for Leopold, who had to grow alone with older siblings. It's hard to catch up to them.
4. Platonic Nacht & Morgen
I'm not sure what to say or why they are this high up - I like sibling dynamics, maybe because my own sibling dynamics are a burning dumpster fire. They are so different, and yet they are close to each other. It's such an interesting relationship and I wish Morgen appeared more so we could've seen more of it.
5. Romantic (?) Grey x Gauche
They encourage each other to be better. I could easily see them as platonic or romantic, but lean slightly towards romantic. They have already history of helping each other, play well off of each other, and the recent events have really cemented their connection. They are the "intimidating partner and shy partner" trope all over.
6. Yami x Charlotte (romantic):
They are kind of a cute pair, aren't they? In my headcanon, it's like a waltz: Yami is leading, though he doesn't quite know the steps, and Charlotte follows along uncertainly, because while she knows the steps, she is trying to figure out where Yami is leading this dance to. The result is a mess.
7. Platonic (?) William & Yami
I put a "?" because I could also see them romantically, but for now, I will discuss them mostly as platonic buddies. They've risen in the ranks together and clearly care for each other: Yami didn't feel much hesitance in asking William rather sensitive questions, and he didn't mind answering them. They are so opposite in some ways, it's a fun dynamic.
8. Romantic Gadjah x Lolopechka
They are a canon couple now, but I've seen relatively little of them, which is why they are so down here. They are cute, I think!

Who are your top ten favorite black clover characters and ships? Talk about them.
YOU’VE BEEN WAITING FOR A LONG TIME AND I’M READY TO DELIVER 1/2 OF YOUR REQUEST! I’ll post my top ten ships on your other ask~! <3
Sorry for the long text! I kind of went overboard with my explanations!
My Top 10 Favorite Black Clover Characters!
1 Asta
Before I got into Black Clover, I always heard a lot of negative comments about Asta as a character. “He’s too loud” “He’s extremely annoying” “He’s just a generic character”. After hearing so many of these types of comments, I was curious to see if what people said about him was true. And now that I’m up to date with the manga and seen every episode of the anime (except the recent filler episodes), I can confidently say, “WHO THE HELL WERE THESE GUYS REFERRING TO AGAIN???”. Like… hello?? I don’t know if maybe I’m just not that critical as a person, but I found Asta’s character to be quite endearing! People hated his voice but I thought it was pretty fine! It may be because I watched the dub, but even his Japanese voice isn’t that bad. Asta is just seems like an overall solid character to me! He’s not generic because he has a lot of quirks that makes him unique. One thing I noticed about his character was how family-oriented he was. You can tell by how he played around with other kids or comforted them that he has a lot of experience with kids! It’s honestly adorable how great he is with kids! And even though he grew up in an orphanage, he was able to find happiness as a peasant. I liked how he dreamt big even though he was starting from the very bottom. He didn’t have magic at all but he still had the determination to fight against all odds and strive to be Wizard King. Do you know how inspirational that is? And he’s not just doing it for himself,  he’s doing for his family back at the orphanage! He said it himself, as Wizard King he’ll fix up the church and spread the message that it doesn’t matter if you’re a peasant or orphan, anybody can be Wizard King. Asta truly has a heart of gold because his goal isn’t just full of self-interest. I also like how he wants people to be held accountable for their actions. Asta is a very fair person and isn’t one to automatically kill the opponent to save the day. No, Asta wants these bad people to serve their time and make up for what they’ve done. Like??? Wow, Asta, you have a lot of mercy for a shounen protagonist. I think that’s what I love about Asta’s character. He represents hope for other people. And I’m a sucker for characters who fight for what’s right and not because of some heroic prophecy or selfishness. 
This is where I list out random things I like about Asta’s character: Asta’s crush on Sister Lily is hilarious because it truly represents ‘fighting against the odds’ in a comedic way. Asta’s short stature is so cute, I hope he remains short for the rest of his life and grows to be proud of it. I really love Asta’s character design. He’s short, his ash blond messy hair is cute and unique, his sharp green eyes are beautiful, his shoes are two different shoes sewn together, and his fashion sense is simple yet nice to look at!  A very distinct design! And his anti-magic and demon possession is a cool addition to his character! I’d gush more about him but I think this is already too much lmao.
2. Fuegoleon Vermillion
I’m going to push aside my thirst for this man and actually talk seriously about what I love about his character. I’m going to first talk about his character design. I really love how Tabata designed Fuegoleon. For one, I really love how he’s wearing eye makeup. I think it’s a unique family tradition for each of the kids to wear this distinct eye makeup no matter the gender. His eye makeup and burned symbol on his forehead really made him distinct from other characters! It’s subtle but visually pleasing! And ‘subtlety’ is a good word to summarize Fuegoleon despite how ironic that word is. When we look at Fuegoleon’s hair in comparison to his other siblings, his smooth hair tells us he’s more orderly and responsible but his curly bangs tells us that he isn’t completely cool-headed. His red eye makeup could also tell us that he has a fierce side to him, as if his eyes are glowing red with fire. And comparing his face with Nozel’s (both are around the same age), Fuegoleon looks older with his eye wrinkles, telling us that he’s more of an old soul and matured fast for his age. That and he probably overworked himself with a lot of responsibilities. His color scheme is also very attractive! He has a balance of warm and cool colors which makes him look… balance! 
Now as a character, I really love the trope he represents! He’s the mentor figure for Leopold, Asta, and Noelle! For a character who isn’t part of the main cast, I find it impressive how impactful his words of wisdom was to the major leads. But it makes so much sense after all the things we’ve learned about Fuegoleon as a character! Fuegoleon has a lot of strengths as a character that I couldn’t help but fall for. Firstly, his debut of a character was short but memorable for me. During the Magic Knights exam, he was the only captain who passionately yelled about the rules of the next test. That was such a character defining moment because those few seconds perfectly described how intense and serious he is. He could’ve calmly announced the next test but the fire within him told him to jump up and yell those words with all his heart. The next time we saw him, we finally got to know him a lot better as a character and man did he win a lot of respect from me. Despite being a royal, he stood up for Asta when no noble did. He was the first noble to treat Asta fairly right away. In comparison to other nobles we’ve come across, Fuegoleon was a breath of fresh air! He wasn’t discriminating or condescending, which made him a lot more likable! I liked how he came from a privileged background but his sense of justice was still a 5/5. You just can’t hate this guy! His visuals are not only attractive but also his personality! He charmed me even more when he was the first to act and became a temporary leader for the other captains! His leadership, inspirational words, and fairness makes him an overall respectable character! I found him even more endearing when we saw his socially awkward personality. Serious + awkward are perfect combinations for a cute character. I also find his fire magic, salamander, and fire arm to be cool as well! He’s just a great character to me!
3. Finral Roulacase
Okay I’m going to try and not write too much like I did with Asta and Fuegoleon lmao. I need to chill-. Finral is the type of underdog character I always loved in anime. The character people don’t think much of at first but then they undergo a lot of character development! I liked how we saw subtle changes within Finral throughout the series and the resolve he gained as an older brother to Langris. His character arc was overall satisfying to me, especially during his final clash against Langris! Finral just has that good amount of light-hearted times (mixers, casanova wannabe personality, cowardly moments) and family drama! I would never expect a lot of depth in Finral based on his character trope but here we are. Finral is such a likeable guy. I just can’t hate him. I also like how he isn’t a perverted character. He just wants LOVE. Also his spacial magic? I love how unique it is! He’s a walking taxi but the fact that he developed a new magic spell to use it during combat is amazing! I also love how kindness is a big part of his character! A very peaceful libra~! I think what made him above Noelle was that I found his character to be charming ever since the very beginning! That and the fact that he can be considered the ‘underdog’ of the Black Bulls!
4.Noelle Silva
Oh Noelle! You beautiful and frustrating character! I’ll be honest, I had mixed feelings about Noelle when I first got into Black Clover. I was never a fan of overly exaggerated tsundere characters and so I would get frustrated with her tendency to act this certain way in the beginning. It was the true definition of slow burn but it’s through this gradual liking toward Noelle that made me feel strong and positive emotions towards her today. Slowly but surely, Noelle began finding her worth as a person and magic knight. All her life, Noelle was put down by those she called family and other noblemen for her lack of control over her magic. And it’s through this understanding of her backstory where I truly get why she wears that tsundere mask with other people. She can’t take a compliment normally because not only had she never been complimented before, but she grew up in an environment that taught her how she should act as a royal. She was bound to be unlikable at first, but it’s through a lot of character development and understanding where I found my love for Noelle. Noelle to me is how most shounen female leads should be. She has a crush on Asta but that’s not her entire character. She has internal struggles outside of her love interest and went through so much development that she became one of the most powerful young magic users in the series. Like the power ups she went through?? HOLY SHIT. The fact that she made me forgive her tsundere tendencies shows how great her character was.
5. Magna Swing
Man, I’m also a sucker for characters like Magna! I just love the delinquent with the heart of gold! Magna appears like your everyday punk but he really is such a good guy! It’s fun to see characters that subverts expectations and Magna is no exception! It’s small actions from this guy that makes him so likable! I really love how aggressive and uninviting Magna was in testing Asta only to heart warmingly accept Asta into the squad once he passed! He does this again when he makes fun of Asta for having a very small room but then tells Asta to send letters back home so that his loved ones aren’t worried! LIKE HELLO?? Why are you so lovingly contradicting?! Magna really tries to uphold his tough guy image but does sweet things right afterwards!! Magna’s character said never judge a book by its cover! I also find his loyalty toward Yami to be so sweet! He’s willing to gamble his clothes for this man and I call that DEDICATION. Magna is that ride or die friend that I’d love to have in real life. His interactions with other characters are also hilarious and his presence always brings a smile to my face! 
I know I keep talking about character design but I can’t help it since Tabata’s character design is GREAT! Magna’s design… I LOVE IT!! He has the cliche leather jacket and skull motifs to bring his delinquent look together! And Tabata had to give him blue shades!! The perfect accessory to complete the look! I also love his hair style and color! Magna is this close to having a pompadour but stuck with a Mohawk look instead! I also like how his hair has two different colors! It tells me right away that people dye their hair in this world! Interesting information for subtle world building! Light gray and black is such an nice color combination, too! I like how he becomes more of a pretty boy when his hair is down! It’s a nice surprise~! And his most iconic character trait. HIS SMILE! I love anime characters with toothy smiles! We can literally count how many teeth they have- LDKAFJSA. Reminds me a lot of Totoro! 
I  JUST LOVE HIM SO MUCH.
6. Klaus Lunettes
Klaus… Santa Klaus… I think I may have a type because in my top three characters I’d date, he and Fuegoleon are up there together! Both are serious and high strung characters with a dorky side to them. These two truly captured my heart-! Klaus is overall a great character! Klaus is the straitlaced character who wants to be respected by others. Sadly nobody gives him that respect and I find that hilarious! I love how short-tempered he is despite how cool and collected he wants to appear to others! Everything about him is contradicting! His hairstyle and earrings are punk rock but his glasses clash with it. He seems disciplined and mature, but is the first to crack and get overworked by emotions. Klaus acts stern, but can be very protective and nurturing. His character did a literal 180 after Asta and Yuno saved them all from Mars. And when he gets worried over Asta and it always warms my heart!! Klaus is lowkey a tsundere but is actually subtle about it- wow! He’s so… comically dedicated. He doesn’t half-ass anything! Overall, he’s a solid character to me! I hope to see more from this nerd!
I’m just going to list out other things I liked about Klaus: I love how his character quirk is him readjusting his glasses. Like get some new glasses if they don’t fit you nerd. I bet he does it to look cool or something. Smh. I also love his outbursts! I mentioned that he reacts quickly and emotionally and I find these traits to be very charming! I like how he doesn’t make his worries towards Asta obvious. We only know this side of him through other characters! That’s so cute~!
7.Julius Novachrono
I deadass thought this man was shady af. I'll have to blame OP 3 and Tabata for clowning me like that but despite the initial suspicion, I really enjoyed his character! I really love how dorky and childish he is! I can never get tired of his fanboy moments in the anime! He's literally the strongest mage in the series but still gets excited over rare or unique magic! I also love how humble he is! He doesn't let his title give him a big head. Despite this quirky side to Julius, I liked how realistic and competent he is as well. He isn’t one to give hopeful answers to other characters. When he said in order to be Wizard King you must have merits, I respected his honesty. Having good morals isn’t all you need to be Wizard King and Julius made that very clear. When he killed off a few members of the Eye of the Midnight Sun, that’s when his character became more real to me. Julius has the experience needed to be a well respected Wizard King and his support towards Yuno and Asta made me like him more! Julius just has a lot of depth and I really appreciate that in a character! I found the path Tabata put Julius in to be very interesting to me! I’m actually glad he’s still alive but as a kid! The series isn’t ready to lose their Wizard King yet and there’s still a lot from Julius I’d love to see in the future! Julius truly brings a lot of humor and epic moments in Black Clover which is why he’s in my top 10 favorite characters!
I also love his character design! I think the short and blonde hairstyle with the royal king aesthetic is pleasing to the eye! He could’ve been a total snob like King Augustus but he strayed away from that trope! His name is similar to Julius Caesar in which represents his leadership and powerful authority as Wizard King, but subverts negative traits associated with Julius Caesar! Clever Tabata~!
8. Vanessa Enoteca
I’m going to have to shout out Vanessa’s arc for making her character be in my top 10. Like if it weren’t for the witches’ forest arc, she wouldn’t have made it in my top 10. I thought Vanessa’s character was a given for a shounen series where we have at least one sexy female character for fanservice, but I’m pleasantly surprised at how deep her character was! Who would have known that there was an actual reason for her to have a revealing design! I think it’s fine to have a character who wears revealing clothes for the heck of it, but I feel like Tabata went the extra mile to be pretty thoughtful about it. For one, she was always caged in (literally and figuratively) ever since she was a child. This backstory indirectly tells us why she wears such revealing clothing. That’s because it symbolizes her freedom as her own person. She went from the modest dress she wore when she was caged in to a sexy dress! I really understand this mentality!!
As a character, I found her lack of freedom to be very relatable. I also felt sympathetic towards her character when she didn’t receive healthy motherly love. I felt a lot of emotions for Vanessa and that made me appreciate her character more! I feel like her character started to leave a positive impression on me when she acknowledged Asta’s strength and determination as well as her helping Noelle as a proper older sister figure! Her arc solidified herself into my top ten when she gained the powers of red thread of fate because of her love for the Black Bulls. That power up shows how much she values the Black Bulls and it always makes me feel soft just thinking about it! Her magic ability is also pretty cool. Thread magic? There’s a lot you can do with that magic! I like how she had a prominent role of maneuvering Asta during the Veto fight, too. Vanessa is another female character with an incredibly strong magic power. It became so useful in so many moments in the series! 
Other comments I’d like to say about why I like Vanessa is her sexy witch aesthetic. I think she looks very pretty and her color scheme is beautiful!
9, Charmy Pappitson
OH GEMINI QUEEN. I love you so. What I like about Charmy was how many times she surprised me. When I first saw her, she looked like she’s a kid but she’s actually 19 years old. What? Then when I saw that she was the glutton, I thought she’d be selfish with her food but then she shares it with others. Huh? Then I assumed she was a harmless character but then she knocked out that witch when she mistaken her for stealing her food with her sheep magic. Oh? And just when I thought I saw everything I needed to know about Charmy, it’s revealed that she was a dwarf and has food magic. HELLO? Like what else am I going to learn about Charmy?! She’s such an unpredictable character and that’s what makes her so fun to watch! The thing is, she still remains the same after all these reveals! She doesn’t really go through a lot of character development but these surprises make up for it! Charmy is overall a feel good character. She’s not one to be taken seriously all the time and that’s okay! She’s just there to have a good time! She radiates good vibes and I like how light-hearted Charmy is! She’s also pretty badass, too, so great combination!
10. Gordon Agrippa
And finally we have Gordon. Gordon. is. such. a. good. boy! There’s no bad bone in this man! He’s so dedicated and loyal to his friends! And it makes me feel bad that he doesn’t get the love he deserves in the canon story! Everything about him is so pure and soft! I love how he’s very quiet and mumbles a lot but the words he says are very sweet! I’d love to listen to his friendship speeches all day! Gordon is the type of guy I’d definitely want as a best friend. His quiet voice and my deaf ears aren’t a great combination but I don’t care! Gordon’s personality is perfect to me! I really hope we get to see more from him in the future!
In terms of character design, I absolutely love it! His goth aesthetic contrasts so much with his actual personality. I love the Marilyn Manson inspiration behind Gordon’s design. His character design is so distinct from other characters which makes him stick out like a sore thumb. This is random but I love how thick his lips are. The black lipstick and eye shadow also looks great on him! His nose is also cutely big! 
Gordon is one of the best boi. No question!

Yo there! Oh all those spindas in the background are making me dizzy haha (one of my fave pokemon actually, love them). Okay, sooo that's pretty random ask but what are your top ten black clover characters? :D
Ah, a tumblr user of taste, I see. Glad you could get past the vertigo to send me an ask, I really appreciate it! Next time you can save your eyes a little stress and ask my interest blog @thespiralgrimoire instead!
Top 10 Favorite Black Clover Characters
1. Nozel Silva
Tumblr media
There are a lot of reasons I absolutely adore this unhinged bedazzled train wreck of a man. I thought my love for him couldn’t swell any bigger when I watched the anime, and then I started reading the manga, and he only gets better.
First and foremost, he’s pretty. In an extremely conventional way, but hey, it’s conventional for a reason. Even with his stupid hair, he’s just nice to look at. This is despite the fact that he literally never smiles, which is usually an important feature to appearances to me. But coming back to the braid thing, he KNOWS it’s stupid, and you know  he knows it’s stupid, because he literally threatens the lives of people who criticize it. The boy made a bad aesthetic decision once when he was like 19 and said, “Oh shit. If I don’t own this, I will never live this down. It’s time to do or die.” And he owned it. He is doomed to look this stupid for the rest of his life or face an endless assault of naysayers. His pride will not allow it.
Which brings me to the next thing I love about him: He’s such an arrogant twat. Everything about Nozel screams “I’m better than you, and if you disagree with me, I will throw myself on the floor and cry.” He will not allow anyone to even entertain the idea that he’s not perfect. Even himself. Even when it’s glaringly obvious that he’s a hot mess. During the star festival, when he hears that the black bulls came in second, He Mcfreakin loses it. He gets so mad that when he can’t make Yami feel ashamed for being himself, he literally STOMPS OUT OF THE FESTIVAL.  It’s chapter 104. Look it up. I’m not exaggerating.
Finally, I’m a slut for siblings, and the Silva Squad is an endless goldmine. That dynamic is what gets me through the day. I could live off sibling dynamics. Nebra and Solid worship the ground he walks on, and Noelle can’t help but look up to him, even if he’s been a huge douchenozzel to her her entire life. At this point it’s all conjecture for how that relationship will develop, but got damn, I’m in this for the long hall.
2. Fuegoleon Vermillion
Tumblr media
Again, this man is so pretty. They really got their royal aesthetics right in this show. I am a simple person, with simple desires, and pretty men that I can make fun of is about all I need to be happy.
That being said, Fuegoleon is a nice guy. Despite having every reason to have the Higher Than Thou attitude that Nozel has, he’s respectful of everyone. This, charmingly, extends to how he treats people for better or worse. My home boy ain’t walking around pretending everyone is deserving of hand holding and forgiveness. He’s beating everyone over the head when they do something stupid. NO ONE is immune to a Teachable Moment.
Which is probably the funniest thing about him. This man is incapable of not teaching. The entire city is being overrun by zombies and he stops in the middle of defending citizens to give Noelle a pep talk and magic lesson??? Bro. Time and place, my dude. I love you.
Actually the funniest thing about him is that despite obviously being the most reserved of the Vermillions, this guy has no chill. If he’s not screaming passionately about something that someone needs to learn, he’s squaring up. He has no off switch. Sure, he’s not running around with his fists up like Meoroleona and Leopold, but if you think he’s going to be any slower to throw a punch than they are then you and I are watching different anime. He may canonically be the most intelligent of the captains, but that doesn’t mean that he’s not a meathead. And I think that’s beautiful.
Okay the ranks get harder after this because these two are so easily my favorite LOL
3. Meoroleona Vermillion
Tumblr media
I could say a lot of things about Meoroleona, but to save some space, I’m going to refer you to #2, and also show you my favorite character from Steven Universe. You do the math.
Tumblr media
4. and 5. Nebra and Solid Silva
Tumblr media
These two are such bitches. At this point in the series, they only exist to a) be Nozel’s hype men and b) be the bane of Noelle’s existence, and as a writer, I respect that. There’s not a lot to them in canon, but that hasn’t stopped me from designing their entire lives and backstory. I love them so much; not only for what I’ve made them out to be, but for where they could go as characters. We’ve already seen this a little bit with their asses being handed to them in fights, and I just hope that their asses continue to get handed to them until they come around to have some respect for anyone but each other and themselves. In the meantime I’ll continue developing their personalities on an interpersonal level.
Okay I’m not done. The REAL reason these guys made 4th and 5th is because, like I mentioned before, I am a slut for sibling relationships. Black Clover does them s o well. Even with the little we’ve seen, it’s so easy to tell that their love for Nozel and each other is so deep and sincere... even if it might be just a tad bit dysfunctional. There’s so much ground to cover with how the death of their mother affected them and pushed them closer together. But I can’t imagine that they wouldn’t have been super close had she stayed alive. You can just tell in everything they do that they live for each other. They’re EVERYTHING to each other. You get the impression that these two probably don’t really know how to be people separate from their siblings, because all they’ve ever had is each other. It’s such a great dynamic to grow and explore and if we don’t get more Silva interaction in the future I’m gonna throw a fit.
6. Ladros
Tumblr media
Okay this is the point where this list starts getting a little wonky because I like almost everyone else in the series just about the same but---
I have feelings about Ladros Ladros. I don’t even know what it is about him. His design is impeccable. Every time I see him I want to scream. What emotion does he instill in me? Love? Hate? Lust? Disgust? I really don’t know. I just know that there’s a lot of it. Look at his little black eyes. Look at his smile. His hair. His barrel chest that doesn’t fit his twink face. What a man. I sure do feel about him.
Also, he’s my preferred brand of Little Shit.
7. Zora Ideale
Tumblr media
Everything that applies to Ladros applies to Zora in exactly the same way. Priddy and meen. At least his face fits his body.
8. Finral Roulacase
Tumblr media
He’s such a sweetheart, and I like his new haircut. I wish he was real so he could be my friend. And I cannot stress this enough: I feel that way about NO ONE else on this list. The rest of these assholes are better off fictional, but the world needs more Finrals.
9. Henry Legolant
Tumblr media
Unlike every other character on this list, I actually don’t think that Henry’s design is all that pretty. What I love about Henry is that his whole personality is “My fragile heart is overflowing with love and care for all my friends... and if you so much as think about hurting them, I will pound your bones to dust.” And he follows through. King.
10. Dorothy Unsworth
Tumblr media
There is no way that glitzy baby doll Dorothy wasn’t going to end up on this list BEFORE I found out that she and Nozel have feelings jams in Glamor World. Once we see more of her I’m sure she’ll fly up the list.
So, there you go! Thank you so much for the ask! This was really a struggle to put together after #5, but I had a great time doing it.

Introduction and F/O List
Hey all! I'm new to the self shipping community and I'm a little nervous but also  really excited to meet some new people and to follow some cool new blogs! 
You can call me Britta! I'm a nice person so feel free to message me anytime  whether it be about me of my fictional others, any message is welcome. I do  have really strong social anxiety though, so I might be a little awkward to get  to know, sorry ^^;
I do like to draw and hope to share some of my drawings with all of you. I might even take requests from time to time c:
I don't mind sharing my f/os because I know that they make others as happy as they do me. I understand though that some people are sensitive about this though and that's perfectly fine! If we share one or more of the same fictional other and you're okay with sharing then please feel free to message or follow me! You don't have to be afraid to like or reblog anything of mine either as it's completely fine with me
I'm still working on ship names and the like and my list is steadily growing (and I have more that I'm sure about sharing at the moment), so I might update it every once and a while
I'm actually really excited to be starting this! For the longest time I've held back because I had it in my mind that I'm weird and things like this aren't normal, but seeing so many people openly share the same feelings and thoughts as I has cast a little bit of that doubt aside. Self shipping has helped a lot with my anxiety and depression, and a lot of the struggles I have in life and it's not something I can share offline, so having a little corner of the internet where I can do just that is like a breath of fresh air
Do not follow me if you're racist, homophobic, support maps/pedophiles or whatever the hell they call themselves -- if you're a garbage person, just stay away and do not interact with me
Here's my list of fictional others!
I'll keep rambling if I don't stop now lol
(Is it weird to have more than one f/o from the same series? I've seen a lot of people do it but I get paranoid and anxious really easily)
Edit: I’ve added some new f/os [*]
Main Fictional Others
Sebastian Michaelis [Black Butler] [Romantic] [Main] [Ship Name: Contracting Hearts/Fatal Attraction]
Summary: If you can't tell from my blog I am very, very, attached to Sebastian. I love his character so much and I feel so strongly for him. Sebastian helps me deal with a lot of things going on in my life and I always find comfort in him. The relationship I have with Sebastian is very complicated and grey, but it's oddly the one that brings me the most comfort
Warning: This relationship is very nsfw and has dark themes to it. My attachment to Sebastian and the relationship I have with him is one that most wouldn't consider healthy with strong yandere and dark themes. It's more of a vent relationship if anything. When something is SFW it will be tagged as "Contracting Hearts" and anything that goes against that will be tagged as "Fatal Attraction". Please be warned of this. I love Sebastian dearly, but I could never see a relationship (between him and I at least) being sunshine and rainbows
Gray Fullbuster [Fairy Tail] [Romantic] [Main] [Ship Name: Permafrost]
Summary: I love Gray with all of my heart. He's one of the first characters I really ever got attached to and care so much for. Even if I'm not attached to the series anymore I still love the characters and setting very much! Gray was my favorite character from the moment he appeared on screen and he's always going to be very close to my heart
Natsu Dragneel [Fairy Tail] [Romantic] [Main] [Ship Name: Heatwave]
Summary: Natsu is hard not to love. He's one of those characters that warm their way into you heart and never leave, and why would you want him to? He's such a sweet guy who cares about his friends and family so much and his goofiness leaves me with butterflies
[Polar-Fire]
