Episode 124: Nero’s Memories Part 2 Release Date: March 3, 2020
Episode 123 and Episode 124 most probably will be fillers to make some gap between anime and manga before it heads towards “Visit to Heart Kingdom Arc”. As the title suggests will episode 123 and 123 will explore Nero’s orgin and the adventures she had with first Wizard King Lumiere before the whole Elf massacre tragedy. Also the staff will be getting help from Tabata for writing these fillers. Or they might be recap episodes.

Written and illustrated by Yuki Tabata, Black Clover is Japanese Battle manga published in Weekly Shonen Jump since February 2015. Viz Media publishes the English translations digitally and also in print.
The manga inspired a event original episode screened in Jump Festa 2017. Later Studio Pierrot adapted a Black Clover anime which is currently ongoing.
“Asta and Yuno were abandoned at the same church on the same day. Raised together as children, they came to know of the “Wizard King”—a title given to the strongest mage in the kingdom—and promised that they would compete against each other for the position of the next Wizard King.
However, as they grew up, the stark difference between them became evident. While Yuno is able to wield magic with amazing power and control, Asta cannot use magic at all and desperately tries to awaken his powers by training physically.
When they reach the age of 15, Yuno is bestowed a spectacular Grimoire with a four-leaf clover, while Asta receives nothing. However, soon after, Yuno is attacked by a person named Lebuty, whose main purpose is to obtain Yuno’s Grimoire.
Asta tries to fight Lebuty, but he is outmatched. Though without hope and on the brink of defeat, he finds the strength to continue when he hears Yuno’s voice.
Unleashing his inner emotions in a rage, Asta receives a five-leaf clover Grimoire, a “Black Clover” giving him enough power to defeat Lebuty. A few days later, the two friends head out into the world, both seeking the same goal—to become the Wizard King!“
