Top 15 Strongest Characters in Black Clover, Ranked! (8)

Musyoga Yosua, also known as the “God of War,” is the strongest member of the Ryuzen Seven.

Yosuga posseses immense magical powers, which canwithstand the piercing Ice Magic spells from a Paladin.

He has superhuman strength and even knocked off a giant dragon’s head without effort.

Moreover, Yosuga can easily take down Partial Devil Union Asta, but he still dealt severe blows without even using Zetten.

His swordsmanship and proficiency in Taijutsu are said to surpass Yami Ichika.

7. Acier Silva

Species – Human x Devil

Magic – Steel Magic

Top 15 Strongest Characters in Black Clover, Ranked! (9)

Acier Silva was known as the “Steel Valkyrie,” renowned for her proficiency in magic and unparalleled physical abilities.

Her prowess was even acknowledged by Mereoleona Vermillion, to whom Acier had an elemental disadvantage compared to Mereoleona’s Fire Magic.

She is a noblewoman of the Clover Kingdom’s House Silva. As a royal and former captain of a Magic Knights Squad, she possesses an immense amount of magic power..

Currently, she has been revived by Lucius as a Paladin and will be going against her children in the upcoming chapters, with simmering excitement among fans.

Top 15 Strongest Characters in Black Clover, Ranked! (10)

Lucius Zogratis revived Morgen Faust as one of his Paladins, and he was granted the powers of Lucifugus, a high-ranking devil responsible for his death.

Morgen undergoes a transformative change by harnessing the purified devil power, sprouting four horns from his head and two sets of wings. lines emerge along his neck, extending to his cheeks, while his clothes turn light blue.

With the devil’s powers, Morgen has achieved a nearly immortal body making him invincible in battle!

And the upcoming battle with his former senior Yami Sukehiro and twin brother Nacht Faust is quite anticipated.

5. Noelle Silva

Species – Human

Magic – Water Magic

Top 15 Strongest Characters in Black Clover, Ranked! (11)

Noelle has come a long way from a hesitant and insecure novice who couldn’t even control her Water Magic to a strong fighter served by the Water Spirit Undine herself.

After losing Undine, we all thought Noelle’s overall power would go down by a LOT similar to Naruto after losing Kurama recently. However, Tabata pulled a fast one on us and gave Noelle something better than an elemental spirit.

Noelle is now the host of Sea God – Leviathan and she’s strong as f**k!

Even before Undine, during the Elf Reincarnation Arc, Noelle’s whole Sea Goddess thing showed us how immense her mana levels are.

Her Valkyrie Armor borrowed from one of her mother’s spells and enhanced her offense, defense, and mobility.

Noelle’s battle and victory against Vanica were quite emotional. When Megicula emerged, she didn’t back down either, eventually destroying her heart. Saint Stage Noelle is undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with.

4. Sukehiro Yami

Species – Human

Magic – Dark Magic

Top 15 Strongest Characters in Black Clover, Ranked! (12)

Our favorite, Captain Yami, is one of those characters who entered the show powerful but has only grown mightier since. He is constantly surpassing his limits like his protégé, Asta.

Yami could take on Licht at full power early on. He uses Dark Cloaked Dimension Slash: Equinox to slice the devil Zagred in half.

He is even able to defeat Captain Dorothy and shatter her Glamour World, which is a commendable feat.

Yami is a master swordsman and also possesses the ability to sense Ki, which gives him a sixth sense to perceive things others can’t.

Additionally, after the Qliphoth Advent Ritual, Yami gets a modified body structure comparable to Asta’s devil possession. He is overflowing with magic and is a legend, and I will fight whoever disagrees.

Also, Yami was able to fight the formidable Dante and, despite being heavily injured, deals some blows to the Demon King, Lucifero. None of the other Captains could do this, not even Mereoleona.

Recently, we discovered that Yami apparently massacred the whole of the Yami clan apart from his sister, Ichika.

Yami is supposed to be a samurai assassin in addition to a powerful mage. If he masters Zetten like his sister, his swordsmanship, Dark Magic, ki, and determination are to take him to the top.

3. Yuno Grinberryall x Sylph

Species- Human

Magical powers- Wind magic + Star magic

Top 15 Strongest Characters in Black Clover, Ranked! (13)

Yuno Grinberryall is the deuteragonist, having the role of Asta’s rival, possesses two grimoires, and can deftly manipulate and control the wind. Moreover, he can even enhance his abilities thanks to Sylph!

Notably, Yuno serves as the vessel for Licht’s child.

In addition, he is blessed with the innate ability to sense and analyze mana, the magical energy that permeates their world, which gives him a significant advantage during battle.

Also, Yuno possesses a Four-Leaf Grimoire, which contains a powerful wind spirit named Sylph which enables him to access Spirit Dive, which enhances Yuno’s abilities, like boosting his power, increasing control over the wind, and the ability to use the unique spirit-based techniques.

2. Asta x Liebe

Top 15 Strongest Characters in Black Clover, Ranked! (14)

Asta is the courageous and most persevering character and is driven by the will to never give up on becoming the Wizard King. He has beaten all odds time and time again in a world of magic where he possesses Anti-magic.

The source of Asta’s Anti-magic is a low-ranking demon, Leibe residing within Asta’s grimoire, the five-leaf clover.

Asta and Leibe share a firm bond and portray the central aspect of the series, painting the power of friendship, overcoming personal struggles, and inspiring each other.

Both of them together can access a powerful form called Devil Union Mode. Which significantly amplifies Asta’s strength, speed, and magical resistance.
