New Gen Shonen Is Finally Coming To An End After 11 Years

by

As a long-time reader, I’ve noticed some big changes happening at Shonen Jump, the most popular magazine for action-packed series. Just last year, we said goodbye to major titles like My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen, and it looks like a few other ongoing series are also heading towards their conclusions.

The popular manga series Black Clover is nearing its conclusion. The upcoming chapters, scheduled for early 2026, are labeled ‘Super Climax,’ which, based on the endings of other series like Jujutsu Kaisen and My Hero Academia, signals that the end is close. While the exact number of remaining chapters is unknown, 2026 will definitely be the year Black Clover finishes its run. Fans are both eager to see how the story wraps up and sad that Asta’s journey will be over. However, there’s good news: the anime is returning soon, which is sure to generate renewed excitement for the series.

Black Clover Manga Approaches Its End

New Chapters Labelled As The Super Climax Of The Story

Black Clover was once a hugely popular manga in Weekly Shonen Jump, rivaling series like My Hero Academia. However, its popularity and sales have declined recently. This is largely due to frequent breaks in publication. The author, Yūki Tabata, experienced health problems that slowed down his work, and the anime adaptation also paused because there wasn’t enough material to animate. Despite these challenges, Tabata is committed to finishing the story. Black Clover is currently in its final story arc, and the concluding chapter is coming soon.

The next chapter of Black Clover will appear in Jump GIGA Spring 2026. The recent release on January 5th strongly suggests the story is nearing its end. This next edition will likely be the final one, meaning fans don’t have much longer to follow Asta and Yuno’s adventures. Similar to how My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen ended in 2024 with chapters labeled “Super Climax,” this indicates that Black Clover is also concluding.

Black Clover’s Manga Will End In 2026

There’s no confirmed end date for the Black Clover manga yet. Although the current arc is called ‘Super Climax,’ similar labels were used for releases planned into 2025. Because Black Clover isn’t published weekly, it’s difficult to predict the ending date, unlike series like My Hero Academia or Jujutsu Kaisen. However, it’s widely expected that Black Clover will conclude in 2026, potentially in either the Spring or Summer issue of Jump GIGA.

Black Clover’s Anime Will Return in 2026

Although it’s disappointing that the Black Clover manga will end in 2026, this doesn’t signal the end of the Black Clover story. In fact, the manga’s conclusion is good news for fans of the Black Clover anime.

The Black Clover anime will be back in 2026, and this time, the animation studio can adapt the entire manga storyline without rushing. Fans are eagerly anticipating what Studio Pierrot will create for the next season of this popular series.

Shonen Jump Takes Big Hits As Many of Its Big Series End

The finale of Black Clover signals the end of another popular manga series from Shonen Jump. While its popularity waned over time, Black Clover was still a significant title. Coming about a year after the conclusions of My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen, this ending adds to concerns about the magazine’s future. With other long-running series like Sakamoto Days also nearing their end, Weekly Shonen Jump is now facing the challenge of finding new hits.

It looks like Weekly Shonen Jump is really focusing on Kagurabachi and Ichi the Witch right now, hoping they’ll become as popular and successful as One Piece and help carry the magazine forward.
