Yuno’s Better Than You Think

- Black Clover has one of my favorite deep casts in all of shounen, but I actually think it's one of its more visible characters that's truly underappreciated. Yuno in many ways is set up as another mainstay alongside Asta, but I feel as if no one really treats him like an important part of the story.
If anything it's mostly complaints and laments that sum up what I call the "Yuno Problem." That he's unlikable and not a compelling rival because he often powers up off-screen. Personally, I think Yuno is perfect for Black Clover's story and that's why I want to set the record straight about him right now.
This video's a bit more outside my usual wheelhouse, but hopefuilly it can help you learn to love Yuno as well.
EDIT: It's also VERY funny that the Black Clover Manga decided to go all-in on Yuno stuff as soon as I uploaded this video. Maybe it's a sign.

#BlackClover #Yuno #Asta #CharacterAnalysis #blackclovermanga
I totally agree with the fact that tabata could have gone the easy route with Yuno and made him and edgy jerk but instead made him a supportive friend. I really appreciate how he is always competing with Asta and even defending him when others insult him and saying, “don’t underestimate asta, he is my rival”
Yuno’s aloof and cool badass personality is partially a mask, just like how asta’s smiling and screaming confidence sometimes hides depression and despair. I’m not saying that their personalities are inauthentic, but that they’re both clearly trying to be what they want to be instead of what others imagine them as (Asta, weak and despairing over his powerlessness) or what they formerly were (Yuno, a crybaby)
You’re def right and Damn this is actually a banger analysis video idea lol
EXACTLY! THANK YOU!!
Yuno is my favorite fictional character of all time, and the reason for that is how much I relate to his personality. Going from a crybaby kid to an aloof adolescent with major goals is just something that I personally identity with, which is why the hate he gets for "lacking personality" has always bothered me. I believe he is a well written parallel to Asta and like you said, although they take different paths towards their goal...both Asta and Yuno are similar in their drive and equally worthy of respect.
same here🤚💚 I'm a die hard fan of Yuno🍀
I suppose you've been getting out-of-nowhere random boosts, too, huh?
i would like yall to stfu about personally nobody gives fuck
people literally hates becoz of how much goku power ups he gets man
He has plenty of personality, but is quiet and steady. It bothers me, that we don't see more of him on this show.
You must hella boring then dude
Why do people act like Yuno doesn’t train, when he honestly trains as much as asta just cuz u can’t see it doesn’t mean he’s not training and doesn’t deserve his powers. People say yuno’s powers are all aspull yet Asta got a grimoire out of nowhere which should be impossible cuz he has no magic at all yet when Yuno gets a spell or power up it’s an aspull, like how?
its totally explained why he has it or maybe u dont have brain to understand
yuno dosent works hard as asta not at all
mans working since he is a gigachild
and yuno just always good at everything without trying just like bortuo from naruto asupulls power ups like naruto
@@goofyisntretarteduare1826 shut the hell up. Yuno does train u need to rewatch with ur eyes open, it’s showed multiple times that he does train. Stop comparing trash to black clover. Also ur telling me asta got a grimoire just cuz he works hard, if that shit makes sense then so does yuno’s power ups.
Thats a bullshit writing excuse then. Asta worked the hardest in the entire show more than anyone, Asta did more shit than him while the writers is making it seems that Yuno matched him in training when everything is given to him.
@@WinniePooh33what ???? Do you want the anime to be 1000 ep long just so you don’t call it a bullshit excuse?!! What about making long ass boring training arcs just like BNHA ? Not to mention that it’s mentioned more than once that magic knights go on missions frequently and that’s where they get their stars from , also something worth mentioning is that no anime ever shows every single character every single time they trian , that’s called “it’s known so no need to show it over and over again “ my god how stupid can black clover haters get
@@ahmadalghamdi4425 you do realize yuno is a royal who is blessed by mana and asta is an actual peasant who has zero magic and for a majority of the show anti magic is shown not to be op at all sooooo.
I disagree about Asta surpassing Yuno in the start of the Spade arc, because if He hasn't the black bulls with him He would have died in the first attack of Dante (literally the first attack, He only got alive because of Rouge). So the result of Dante's fight was because of the team work, not because of Asta himself.
This is fair! I guess I was more or less coming at it from his power after making the arm trade off with Liebe, but you are not wrong! I think there's probably a compelling argument to make that a healthy Vangeance and Yuno could have given Zenon a run for his money if they weren't trying to protect everyone.
@@BmoreBrass I would also like to add that Dante was defeated. But not even Asta or Yami could take down Zenon. The dude literally kidnapped Yami and William
@@bingecore7422exactly, asta is overrated
@bingecore7422 did you watch the anime or manga, it was very clearly stated that asta was completely out of energy as stated when he got his devil arm from liebe, he said you have only 30 seconds until your body gives out, and yami was also completely knocked out
@@bingecore7422also it is very clearly stated that all dark triad are at the same level of strength very clearly multiple times actually and didn't you notice a stamina deprived asta was able to take down an 80% Dante who was stated to not being able to run out of stamina or get weakened so it's very clear that if zenon attacked yami and asta the same would've happened
I want to see more of Yuno - he is badass...Asta has not surpassed him, Asta would not have done so well in the last battle without Yami and the Black Bull gang. Yuno is caring. However I like your balanced commentary. Yuno is my favourite and feel we could do with seeing Asta less and developing Yuno's role in the series more.
Yuno the more I think about it, is not really a badass - he is just reflective, quiet and measured.
Yuno is shit
He has improved in the Manga
Yes, the last few chapters are making up for lost time.
The problem With Yuno is that Tabata made him an obstacle that Asta needs to overcome, not a person With flaws and strenghts, at least at The begining(we only saw him show emotion in The flashbacks), we dont see him train, we dont really know what he thinks outside being wizard king, we dont see much how he behaves With his squad unlike Asta, and he doesnt have enough screen time, even The freaking black bulls have more screentime than The deuteragonist who is supposed to be Yuno, Tabata needs to let Asta rest for a while and focus on Yuno only, get him and Arc, or a movie in which he learns more about himself and goes to the spade kingdom, we see way too much of Asta and too little of Yuno, thats the problem. Unlike Sasuke who has as much screen time as Naruto, or Todoroki who got a whole Arc about his family which explains the way he acts and thinks and his calm and confident personality balances Deku's pretty well, also Yuno being in a diferent team than asta makes it more dificult
Asta can't overcome Yuno on his own.
Asta need to this a lots of crutches (Light book, Light swords , OP devil that brake balance of BC world, tons of mentors, plot armor of Mc an etc) + Yuno only relies on himself , lol ( 0 help from others).
In reality Yuno is a person that better that you in everything (you can't equate people between whom there is no equality.It's like equating a sick cripple and a healthy person - an athlete)
Some people say he was supposedly going to be killed off in the beginning.
So maybe that would explain his lack of development for a while.
@@gech7634 he isnt better nigga he got all power ups cuz he is RoYaLty this shit is annoying
Agree I want to see more of Yuno and how he develops in the team to get people's respect. Yeah the Black Bulls are funny but Yuno is a Badass and he does not get enough time. Also I hated the stupid little stories they put in - such as the Charmy mushroom dream stuff - they could have focussed on Yuno.
Yes more Yuno time needed.
Does everyone realize The villains in the Baki season have more screen time than Yuno ever had that's sad 😔
Y do people act like Yuno doesn’t train.Heb literally works hard even stated in the last chapter that he trained his ass off for the Zenon fight.Not only that rennet when the were training for the magic knights squad selection Asta and Yuno both were training.
bro he gets powers up outta nowhere wtf u talking about
@@goofyisntretarteduare1826 he train alot most probably as much as asta despite being a genius. Yuno is lucky but asta is the luckiest mf, what would you do to defeat a mf who can negate the main source of power? And yuno is still doing it...
@@goofyisntretarteduare1826he trains to increase his power if you wanna go there we can say the same bout asta he got that grimoire and sword out of no where
@@pkyt2458you have low comprehension
@@VENG-k1d I’m not tryna speak proper English, so calm yourself.
It is hilarious but as character 10% screen time Yuno in Spade arc ->>>>90% screen time Asta in whole manga. He simple has a loses or сhalenges in the story (family, his country, place, guild + he will obvious have personality crisis coz he Spade prince but was educated in Clover and etc) when Asta in the same as stone like the same character from chapter 1-3 (he only become more stronger but as character he has 0 progression)
Okay you should definitely see the manga we see Yuno really struggle so much he started crying spiraled at he surpasses limits but get a new power up
I’m actually excited to see the black clover movie since it’s probably gonna look really good
I like him,he has cool powers,I’m not expecting deep art characters in shonen,he’s just cool
This video was too early because the manga did an AMAZING job with Yuno as a character. I truly didn't give a shit about Yuno but after the last few chapter, damn he grown in me, I like him very much now. I hope he won't be sidelined in the future because he is truly a great character now.
I feel like the whole royal thing is a set up so in the end both Asta and Yuno can be Wizard Kings of their own respective countries but thats just a thought i've had
You know what’s the problem of Black Clover after I finished watching it? It’s not the “bad” animation that most people say . It’s most people of the fandom of Black Clover is commenting or replying their thoughts or opinions in a bad, rude way. Sure everyone has their opinion, but I think most of them take it too far, they doesn’t respect each other … well most of them. Most of them -> are pointing good things of their favorite characters or the characters they like and keep pointing bad things of the characters they don’t like in a rude way , to let the characters they like to shine ( or to change ) or to show other people who doesn’t have the same opinions as them that they’re right -> in a disrespectful, bad and rude way🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️. That’s the only problem I see from Black Clover 😞.
If only you could hear how hard I cackled when you joined me in chanting "but prince"... lol
Yuno is underappreciated. I saw people criticize him for getting so strong without a mentor or training, which is absolutely BS.
Yuno is my favorite character and Luck is a close second. Yuno is a very unique side character and although I would love to see more of Yuno's strength building I understand that this isn't the Yuno show it's the Asta show and even still Yuno is shown a lot in the story, also I know that this video is old and a lot of info that we have gotten wasn't known a year ago but Yuno isn't "naturally talented" Yuno has been practicing and training using magic that isn't even his (wind magic) but is someone else's magic ever since he was a young child, his magic is actually star magic which he is still learning how to master and he's also still learning how to master wind magic as well. Putting out an updated version of this video would be great.
Great video, I appreciate this
My husbando 🥰🍀
Yuno i a strong person and a good rival and with his star magic and wund he will be powerful
The second most nuanced character in black clover with the best thematic fight in the series, William is nthe most nuanced imo, Yuno is just misunderstood.
Don’t pick on stoic people it’s not going to end well for you, and you’re just going to get yourself hurt. The show mainly focuses on Asta and his journey to try to become the wizard King, though Asta rival and considering his stronger every time we see him he’s practicing off camera and on camera. Every time he’s not on a mission or every time he has free time. He’s stoic because of when he was a kid not always wanting to cry every single time that something bad happens, now he’s in control of his emotions and the only time we see him loses his composure, loses his stoicism demeanor is when the golden dawn faced that devil that he couldn’t beat, he didn’t how strong the Devil’s power could be, but he knew and from his wind spirit that this guy was dead serious about killing all of them all.
I honestly really like Yuno, at first I was eh about him but after reading the manga from start to finish (well up to date), I've enjoyed him a lot more. Definitely in my top 15 BC characters
Will you be doing more Black Clover character analysis in the future?
I'd like to! No idea how soon tho.
@@BmoreBrass I'll look forward to content you post in the future
If they don't like him it's their business
If Asta is the Mike Linebacker what does that make Yuno?
LMAO he’s the lanky star wide receiver who isn’t good in fantasy but wins games
0:53
This makes your points even more valid
YES SIR, PREACH
I will just ask one thing? Are you reading the manga?
I’m not at the moment!
I love black clover I really do but the problem with Yuno is that the story implies that he has train but in the mid of a fight always give him some bs power ups that comes out of no where sometimes and the excuse is his royalt or his love by mana like really like for the lates fight in the manga he has two grimoire,yeah it cool but honestly is power that out of nowhere and ik you can say hey asta is the same but not really almost all the fight asta has need help from his team. Just give him more time to master the power he has now instead of always give him power that just comes out of nowhere just so we can see him win think outside the box like that fight with Magna and Dante.
For the two grimoires it actually makes sense but spoilers
Now you are saying Yuno's 2nd grimoire is out of nowhere. But if you are interested I can explain you everything about why he should get a 2nd grimoire and how it's been constructed.
TH-camr Yunami predicted something like that will happen a month before chapter 308 was officially out.
@@suraajgogeta5390 stfu we all read manga and understand and thats why we speak
retarded yunofanby
Astas powers came outta no where in pity what you tryna say huh
i love black clover but ngl yuno is a pretty bad character on a normal basis. As a normal character he's pretty underdeveloped and is a living embodiment of Marty Stue. He's no Sasuke (no matter how much of derivative he is of sasuke) he lacks emotional complexity and his entire goal is a result of something that didnt even com from him, he just took his goal from asta.
Did you read the manga?
And his emotions were shown throughout the series. But less screen time is the reason people don't understand it
@@suraajgogeta5390 I've been reading the manga since 2018, he's a plot convient Mary Sue, with motivations that pale in comparison to the other characters.
@@dhruv9744 yes plot convenient.
He was given the wind spirit in the dungeon and Mars was stopped so that asta can survive.
He's plot convenient he was given elf mana amplification so that he can save asta from Kalus and Hammond attacks in ep 100
He's plot convenient that he got Spirit of Zepher , so that he could carry asta to Zagred so that Zagred could be killed.
He's plot convenient that Zenon attacked golden dawn (folded him and killed half his squad). Something like this doesn't happen with black bulls because of plot Armour.
He's plot convenient because he was needed to remind asta that asta couldn't stop in his journey.
He's plot convenient he got star magic so that finral can survive. Otherwise black bulls would see him dead and challenge devil zenon ( asta can't even use union at that time , undine ran out of mana so no spirit dive Noelle) just to be killed in an instant. This is another plot Armour for blackbulls
@@suraajgogeta5390 almost everyone died in black bulls only survive becoz of that sleepy mothefucker and yami
and was given wind sipirit cuz mans too handsome i guess
and he didnt save asta shit its from elf
he got star magic be coz he is da prince and need to stay on par with asta anybody else could save finral stop the cap again
He’s more boring than u think
Fr
I think that personally yuno has cheats, regardless of the duality the show emphasizes between him and Asta it doesn't change the fact that it hurts when I see Asta struggle against him further more that whole notion that he's a commoner isn't even true... yes Yuno is a Noble bruh and he basically gets cheat menu when he gets 2 grimwares bro...
No-no, bro, you really really much downplaying on Yunos blood. It freaking ruined the whole messag of the black clover: blood is not something that defines you.
For the whole anime everything and everyone puts the thought of Yuno being so powerful while being a peasant through out throats. Too much. And what do we get? He is prince. The purest blood out there. And on the contrast with Magna and Zoro, it is really apparent that blood IS matters, that where did you came from defines you, it ruins not only his character, but the black clover as a whole, as it was its defined message.
And to counterargument your opinion, I will list all the things that happened not because of the fact that Yuno tried, but because of what he was born with:
Instantly loved by everyone in the village
Got 4-leaf clover gremoir
Did not break a sweat in joining golden dawn
Was chosen by the wind spirit
Has connection to mana so strong he can pull of almost anything with his magic
Did not participate in almost any serious elf arc fights but being honored and ranked as he was carrying the entire thing on his own
Was revealed to be a prince
Got second gremoir through the power of crying
And something I didn't remember or didn't get to in the manga
I get your idea of him being a wall to Asta he has to climb but it was so so poorly executed he became a joke. It had the potential to make him a neverending goal to Asta, but he's absent 80% of the anime and not only oppose little to no challenge to Asta himself, but anime just unironically starts praising him like he did so freaking much, like tries as hard as Asta does. And also he is a total diсk to Asta, it goes beyong just jerking with a pal, he's straight up bullying him. And you also belittle his attitude. He's not only cocky, he always arrogant and overconfident to everyone period, not breaking an emotion. So when two of the real and 50 of non-existent golden dawn members die and he rages all you want to say is "you just don't deserve to live"
And see what, even the author himself got that Asta/Yuno friendship suck and just made a demon his friend lol, and you believe in this friendship, it's mutual
Wow so u never took jabs at your friend b4 or they never took jabs at u b4 if u are upset with yuno insulting asta , u sound like some one who is surrounded by yes men , he insults asta a bit and asta insults him back , he supports asta and brings him up , yuno believed asta when no. The whole point of there characters that they supposed to be perfect opposites to each other they represent yin and yang it's so obvious that appalling u don't realize it , asta is short , yuno tall , asta is high spirited and Brutish, yuno is calm and composed , asta is hated by mana , yuno is loved by mana , asta uses anti magic , yuno uses magic , asta is the lowest of the low , yuno is highest of high, asta uses a devil(spirit of the unnatural world), yuno uses a elemental spirit(spirit of the natural world ), asta transformation is red and black , yuno transformation is green and white , asta transformation progresses from his right hand , yuno transformation progresses from his left hand
We literally see flash backs of yuno training with asta , yuno played a major role in defending clover Kingdome from diamond evasion of course he will get love and yuno is most loved by others in his life bc of his magic talent , yuno growth of strength makes sense has literally been stated those who have a four leaf grimore will experience great luck and power , yuno being royal blood doesn't change his character just makes him more of an antithesis to asta , yuno being royal doesn't change the fact that he spent his entire life as peasant and doesn't change the fact he built his reputation as a peasant he and doesn't change the fact that he got acknowledged not bc of his royal background but bc he achieved results , yuno being royal makes more sense than a nobody who got lucky that he was born with high magic power
@@arinzechukwuonyekwuluje2218 so ur saying that the whole Yuno's purpose is not to be a character, but to be an anti-Asta? Because as character he's pretty much failed, you just don't believe him when he's at loss because he got everything without almost any labor. When he lost his non-existent friends in the Golden Dawn or when he's defeated by the bone dude, you just can't be compassionate to him. He loses there because there is a force even more unbalanced than he is, not because of him being weak or unmotivated or any other reason normal hero would have in this kind of situation
@@Akizas28 ???? What do u mean him being anti asta , that opposites I mentioned was to make realize hime being a royal makes sense that anti logic can be used by almost any other main character and their rival but I don't what to go into it, it's kind of hard for u to say he doesn't work hard when he grew up with asta and there flash backs of them training together and they acknowledged each other as rival or when yuno said he will also work hard just as hard asta didn't have magic so he could only focus on physical strength , yuno had a lot of mana so he spent most of his time learning to manipulate . U don't have to feel compassionate towards him for losing his friends, some ppl felt sorry for yuno ,it isn't a most u must feel compassionate towards him , I felt sorry for yuno bc even with all his work, praise of others and talent, he just lost and failed in his duty as the vice captain, ( I think that was suppose to represent someone who always had it easier than others , who continuing climbing up and suddenly just hit rock bottom), just like asta losing the person that believed in him in the beginning yuno also lost that person, even after training and making new technique, he still lost again only won bc of a miracle. But I don't get it what do u want from yuno do u want him to struggle just as much as asta did , do u hate the concept of someone just not needing to work as hard as others , does that bother u or do u want to have more screen time bc he had it during spade arc if don't like the concept of someone not needing to work just as hard I get it , it's less inspiring , than someone who needs to work just as hard as everyone, I like him I think his decently written sure he isn't best written but he still alright , alike his relationship with asta and how they look out for each other and support each other and inspire each other and their relationship but whatever . Tabata was planning on killing yuno off but editors said no
@@arinzechukwuonyekwuluje2218 i don't think he as character are worth so much praise, both black clover and this video, for example, saying that this is really cool incredible character when his development is just almost non-existent, all of his evolution is the same cycle: powerful enemy -> a bit of struggle -> completely out of the blue overpowered ability -> Yuno is the victor
when Asta almost every time risk his life trying all his best, he is the true underdog, who deserved all of the power he got. Yeah, Yuno got really little time on the screen, i don't believe in his power because he just abscent 80% of the arc, comes to save everyone, overpowers eveyone and is lost again. And do you really compare his training as a kid to be the same kind of hardwork Asta did the whole Black Clover?
@@Akizas28 well technically his character development happened kind of, yuno always used his calm and composed demeanor to hide or suppress his feelings of inadequacy,fear of failing and his over emotional side he dealt with a child , in his rematch with zenon in spade arc he was forced to face those feelings and accept his true self thus the phrase of bell his wind spirit "it feels like I am meeting the real yuno" ,plus we haven't heard anything about his relationship with the spade kingdom , so it's likely his character arc isn't over yet
As much u don't like his power gain , again it makes sense, it's stated that those who receive the four leaf grimore will guaranteed success and power , so??? His power makes sense
#justacommentofappreciation
I think people got this take because of how good the black bulls are as a cast, leaving yuno in the dust.
It isn't so much that they are a great cast. Since they are team mates of the main character, Tabata has written them up as lovable, over performing misfits and given them tons of scenery to chew. Outside of some anime only episodes, Yuno and the Golden Dawn are are mostly offscreen. Fans dismiss them as weak because they were decimated by Zenon and his disciples. However, they were the top squad in number of points and seem to be sent out a lot on missions so unless people think Julius Novochromono is blind and/or stupid, I doubt they are overrated.
@BMoreBrass, agree that because Yuno is not on the same team as Asta, as was case with Naruto and Sasuke, it is hard to show more of Yuno. I never thought of it before but you probably have a point that since Yuno is talented and the Golden Dawn squad is accomplished, focusing on them more probably would have made for full story telling. On the other hand I would not have to read so many "Yuno never" or "The Golden Dawn is" comments.
The only Golden Dawn member we get to see a lot of is not Yuno but Asta groupie Mimosa.
Even though Yuno is nominally a rival of Asta, he only shows up for battles. As soon as Leo of the Crimson Lions
decided he was going to be Asta's rival, we started seeing a lot of Leo.
This is what I have always tried to tell the haters when I defended Yuno. It is why I have often said he was poorly developed. He got a very slow start in the Spade Arc. It's finally happening.
Elf boi
He garbage bro
Fax but he’s not terrible though
Sorry but no matter I hate him there something about him that hate maybe because he got everything while our asta got the opposite..
I dropped the anime because of him 🤢🤢🤢
I only somewhat dropped it because I thought that the elf arc was too long
