The next two chapters of the Black Clover manga, 372 and 373, are scheduled to be released on Thursday, August 8, 2024. These chapters will be included in the Shueisha’s Jump GIGA Summer 2024 edition, which is set to be released in the near future. As a preview for the upcoming chapters, the publisher Shueisha has revealed a preview nearly a month before the release of the manga’s next installments.
Despite the highly anticipated fight between Noelle Silva and Paladin Acier Silva being the focus of the upcoming manga chapters according to the short preview, it has been over a year since fans have seen a dedicated chapter for fan-favorite character Noelle Silva. This is due to the fact that the manga, which began serializing in Shueisha’s Jump GIGA magazine, has not yet focused on this particular fight since its start.
Please note: The Black Clover manga is discussed in this article and may contain spoilers.
The Return of Noelle in Upcoming Black Clover Manga Chapters
Just under a month prior to the launch of the Jump GIGA Summer 2024 magazine, Shueisha released a sneak peek of Black Clover chapters 372 and 373. These two chapters of the manga will pick up the ongoing battle between Noelle Silva and her mother Acier Silva in her Paladin form.
This is alluded to by the provided description, which can also be translated as:
“Noelle & co. continue their fierce battle against their mother Acier. ..? !”
Although the manga has not confirmed the identity of Noelle’s teammate, it is highly probable that it will be one or more of her siblings, such as Nozel, Nebra, or Solid. Alternatively, she may team up with her Black Bull comrades Vanessa Enoteca and Grey. This is because the two Black Bulls were depicted battling a clone of Lucius Zogratis near the area where Noelle fought Paladin Acier.
However, it remains to be seen whether both or only one of the upcoming chapters of the manga will focus on the ongoing Noelle vs. Acier battle.
Noelle Silva’s last proper appearance in the manga was in chapters 359 and 360, which were released in May 2023. In these chapters, she made a triumphant return and successfully defended her siblings.
Immediately after, the show revealed a flashback in which she appeared despondent after being unable to save Asta from Lucius Zogratis. Shortly after, Noelle accompanied her friend Kahono to the Seabed Temple and forged a pact with the deity known as the “Sea God”Leviathan, gaining her powerful new Valkyrie Armor: Dragon Form.
Ever since Noelle activated this form during her fight against her mother Acier, she has not been prominently featured in the manga. The only times she has been shown were during background fights or when Lucius Zogratis noticed her sudden power increase.
Despite Noelle’s feelings after Asta was teleported to the Hino Country, it is surprising that the Black Clover manga has not yet revealed her reaction to his return. Therefore, it is highly possible that the next installment of the manga will showcase Noelle Silva’s response to Asta’s comeback and her battle against Paladin Acier Silva.
