My orgin story
I was thinking about it and honestly I had a rollercoast ride of a time with BlackClover.
The only other like long haul anime I was ever into was One Piece but I kind of dropped of in Dressarosa.
So I really started Black Clover after coming home from a party drunk off my ass during Christmas Break in December 2017. Why did I choose then to watch it? During the party I was playing rage cage which if you don't know it's a game that involves a ton of red solo cups, beer and the hard stuff. I won't explain it here because it would take forever but Google it if you care. So basically the loser has to drink from a cup of hard liquor, beer and sometimes juice all combined (I know there are variations idc). So ya girl lost and had to drink the cup. I was already super wasted and my friend's boyfriend who knew I was walking home and honestly probably just didn't want to drive me offered me a deal: I'll split this with you if you watch Black Clover. Fucking deal.
So anyways, after drinking some more I went home and started watching it, the first episodes were meh- I almost stopped but then I met Yami and I was fucking sold. This year of school was really tough for me, I was being overworked, had a full schedule of biology classes, my boyfriend proposed (and I said no) and my roommate had a physically and mentally abusive boyfriend who I obviously hated and they would literally keep me up at night fighting, I had to call the cops on them and eventually she ODed (then recovered) because who how depressed she became dating him.
I am not exaggerating when I say Black Clover was a small ray of light in an other wise bleak year. But I needed to get out of my life a little so I accepted an internship to live in Ghana for three months studying infectious disease. So while I was there I stopped watching Black clover because my internet was shitty most of them time and I could really only watch what I downloaded on to Netflix from the University when I was there for class.
Fast forward literally over a year, I dumped my boyfriend when I got back, moved to a new apartment with a great roommate, switched jobs, graduated and went to grad school!
My first term of grad school was a bit stressful because I moved to a new city literally the first day of class and both of my professors were trash so I thought: "time to watch Black clover again".
The first time around I watched until Asta's arms were cursed so when I came back to it the first arc was the witch arc, then the royal knights, then the elf arc. I forgot how much I loved it and made my roommate and boyfriend (obviously a new one who doesn't guilt trip me into marrying him) watch it all too.
Then finally, a couple of months ago, my boyfriend and I went to a cabin his family owned in the middle of nowhere to do some renovations and with my very terrible wifi connection I decided to start a blog.
So yeah idk I really love Black Clover because it's been with me through some really stressful times and it just makes me happy.
