Black Clover

Seeing the number of recs between these two is unsurprising.
After finally starting Fairy Tail recently, I was constantly met with the parallels to Black Clover. While I'm sure it is more accurate to say it the other way (with BC taking the inspiration), the order I watched these series in caused me to make those connections backward I guess.
These are both adventure shonen, focused on magic, mages and a magic based world/society. They both heavily feature guilds, with the guild/group the main character is part of being central to series.

Both series are centered on friendship and have the same "never give up" motto. The main protagonist is in a guild\squad where there are a lot of people very different from each other. Both shows give the same vibe of "i will do anything to protect my friends" and "everyone can understand each other". Friendship, rivalry, fights, life or death battles. Different past story plot but both enjoyable

-Both are anime in which the main element is the guilds
-Both have elements of magic and wizards.
-Many people may find the Black Clover protagonist boring at first but he gets more serious over time. I will not disagree that he is really boring in the first episodes but only in the first.
-If you like emotional moments in fights Fairy Tail is the anime for you. It emphasizes the importance of friendship to beat enemies and you end up liking the unique characteristics of each character.
Black Clover is essentially a better version of Fairy Tale. Both are Shonen centered around comradery, fighting, and magic guilds. The character archetypes of the cast are also fairly similar in both shows.

Both are set in worlds where magic is the dominant force and mages are banded together into guilds. Natsu and Asta are also fairly similar in that they are both hot-headed and determined. Both shows are just a ton of Shounen fun!
Magic, Meet new people that will be close to you, Similar Male Character

Did Fairy Tail tickle your funny bone? Then get ready for Black Clover - a similar group of magical idiots but with fewer dragons and just as much shouting!

- power of friendship
- similar motivation for the male MC
- both male MC’s are obnoxious, loud, fit, and OP
- female MC dealt with loss
- male MC’s have an animal companion
- both deal with magic
Based on first 10 episodes I see this anime very similar with Fairy Tail. Black Clover has Magic Knights, Fairy Tail has magic guilds. Both share world filled with different kinds of magic and very unique characters.
I have finished whole FT anime and it was the first one that came to my mind when I started to watch BC. If you like colorful characters and magical powers, this anime is for you.
When I first started to read Black Clover it reminded me so much of both Naruto and Fairy Tail.
-The magian's guild is crazy like Fairy Tail.
-Both stories are about a magical world
-Both anime have similar characters, including magical/power fights,a lot of funny moments and scenes that touch people emotionally .
-The main characters have never give up attitude .

It is very much reminiscent of Fairy Tail for most of the characters. Asta and Natsu both are very head strong and impulsive, and really are only 'smart' when they are in a middle of a life or death battle. There are multiple connections to characters that are similar or about the same character style, not just Asta and Natsu. But the whole 'friendship is power' and 'I will never and cannot give up' attitudes in this show are EXTREMELY similar to Fairy Tail.

The Magic is very versatile in both worlds and is being used for combat and the daily life of its inhabitants. Also the Mc joins a crazy group of outcasts and fights against whatever evil is attacking their city/kingdom alongside them.

Fairy Tail and Black clover are both shounens with mediocre animation and a heck load of episodes. I AM NOT HATING ON EITHER. I happen to love both of the series very much and love all of the characters. Both series have very high-strung protagonists who train to build up their magical powers. Black clover has a very interesting story and goes into the backgrounds of every character one by one so you can really see who you like. It's like how fairytail went into seperate story arcs that tied into the backgrounds of our main mage squad. I highly recommend Black Clover to Fairy

Both have team work, Boy with special power. Lot of comedy and fighting
They are very similar in the aspect that both of these worlds revolves around Magic, but in my personal opinion, Black Clover is better.
Very similar premise and the main character has a very similar team/guild dynamic to what is in Fairy Tail.

If you love Fairy Tail for the guild and fantasy setting with magic then your gonna love Black Clover. It takes a bit longer to introduce the Black Bulls but they are just like the Fairy Tail Guild in that they are misfits that all fit together. If you like the "power of friendship" moments in fairy tail Black Clover also has it's take on that where they have moments where they "Go Past there limits" as a team in order to overcome powerful enemies.

The characters are practically the same. The MC is loud and obnoxious but with a big heart. There is a girl who likes the MC but won't admit it. And the rivals are hot, powerful guys.

both have an element of magic
both have some sorta sense of belonging in a "guild"
- black clover have more teamwork
both have "Nakama" power kinda but black clover is more logical and has better power scale, so they use tactic and teamwork to fight whereas fairy tail use "I need to protect/is being protected by Nakama" power-up
Black Clover is Fairy Tail + classism/discrimination. A world where magic is everything & you follow a guild & it's members as they defend the kingdom & grow. You've got the loud & dim protagonist who's always yelling, basic guild member clichés: guy who say's "real man", a drunk mostly naked witch, & more. The plot will 100% be about overcoming your limits because of friendship. Your enemies will become your friends.... And you will witness epic fights.
Honestly both shows are great in their own separate ways, but there is no denying the similarities. If you like one, you should almost certainly love the

Both are about magic, both have amazing fights. Both have well-made stories. Both will make you want to watch more and more. Both have amazing music(openings, ost). Both are masterpiece and deserve to be in top 10 of all time. After reading that recommendation don't ever think it anymore- just go and watch them if you haven't yet!
Both anime are about magic. Both MCs have got a plot armour and are OP when their friends are in trouble. The good side always wins, that is just the rule. :D

Both are shounen and have similar ideas although vary in many ways however I think if you like either of these, chances are youll also like the other. For eg, if you like Fairy Tail, its possible youll like Black Clover too. This is the case with me although it varies, however they are both guilty pleasures of mine especially Fairy Tail. Hence would recommend.

Both are shounen anime with similar worlds where (almost) everyone has magic abilities that they use in their everyday lives with different attributes. The Fairy Tail guild and the Black Bulls magic knight squad are similar "family" type groups of magic users that fight villains together and compete with other similar groups. Both have similar power of friendship and never giving up themes.

- Both have a main character that never gives up
- they both have some good action pack fight scenes
Similar world building where magic plays a huge rol(from fighting to every day use like cooking or cleaning), similar MC(both are very loud and stubborn), in both shows the power of friendship is the most important thing and the story is the same in every story arc the MC helps one or several squadmates(or guild members for Fairy Tail) to solve their problems. The story of Black Clover can be a little bit darker than Fairy Tail, but overall, in my opinion, both are the same... I personally doubt that if you like one you will dislike the other.

Like Black Clover, Fairy Tail involves the main character heavily influencing everyone in his team(In BC, that'd be the magic knight squads and in FT, team would be guild). Both anime have the aspect of "my team is my family I must protect" kind of thing. As you may know, both these anime have similar genres as well; action, fantasy world, over powered main character(if that counts as a genre), etc. It's just really similar, I wouldn't be able to understand why if someone told me they liked one of them but not the other.

Black Clover is set in a fantasy world where magic is an essential part of people's daily lives. Magic guilds, sorcerers and various magic types are all elements that are shared among Fairy Tail and Black Clover. Both series retain a light-hearted, comedic tone that can become dark at times. The main cast are also very similar in terms of personality, but each one has their own goals and dreams to achieve, including each series's protagonist.
While Fairy Tail's main focus is on the importance of friendship and bonds to face the hardships of life, Black Clover also emphasizes the fact that no matter your status,

Like Fairy Tail, there are a lot of similarities. A world filled with magic, a hilarious loud-mouthed protagonist, and plenty of action to keep you on the edge of your seat.
If that's enough then consider this: What would happen if there is only one person in a world of magic, who can't use magic?
