Character Analysis: Asta (Feat Felicia)

 Asta Character Sheet



Background

  • Age: 17

  • Gender: Male

  • Height: 5'1" / 155 cm

  • Species: Human (bonded with a demon)

  • Occupation: Magic Knight, Royal Knight

  • Background: Asta is the child of Licita, a mysterious woman who was born with a magic ability that made her passively absorb others’ magic. Fearing for her child’s life, she had to abandon him near a church in the village of Hage, located in the Forsaken Realm. Licita went on to raise a demon child because he had no magic. Said demon, named Liebe, would later go on to bond with Asta. During his childhood, he grew up alongside Yuno, another orphan, but unlike other children, Asta displayed a complete inability to use magic. Despite this, he trained his body day and night in order to become a Magic Knight so that he could eventually be the Wizard King, a goal he shares with Yuno. Not long before the Magic Knights exam, Asta discovered that he possessed the rare power of anti-magic, the ability to negate all kinds of magic. His sketchy background and surprising strength attracted the attention of Yami Sukehiro, leader of the Black Bulls, a section of the Magic Knights formed by a lot of chaotic magic users who didn’t fit in with the rest of the Magic Knights.


Magic Mechanics in Black Clover


An important aspect that will help determine the results of this fight is what constitutes as magic in the Black Clover world, given that a liberal interpretation of Quirks could lead to misinterpreting them as magic. In BC, magic is formed by Mana, which is supernatural energy that exists in the air and inside most people. Spells are performed by expending one’s mana or occasionally pulling it from the environment.


There exists an element separate from Mana that Asta has a better understanding of, called Ki. Unlike Dragon Ball’s version of Ki, this is a proper depiction of life energy that exists within all physical elements and people. It doesn’t make you shoot beams, just understand your environment better in order to predict attacks and even minimize damage from non-magic attacks.
