In the August 21, 2023 issue of Weekly Shonen Jump 38, it was announced that the serialization for Black Clover, a fantasy manga written and illustrated by Yūki Tabata, is being transferred to the Jump GIGA magazine. After the release of chapter 368 of Black Clover, all chapters from then on will be released in Weekly Shonen Jump’s sister magazine, Jump GIGA, starting this winter 2023. [Thanks, Natalie!]

As Jump GIGA releases every three months, this means Tabata will also be moving to a quarterly schedule. He sent a message to fans explaining that he no longer believes Weekly Shonen Jump’s schedule aligns with his own personal writing schedule, so he has made the decision to move Black Clover to Jump GIGA after consulting with the editorial department.

Tabata’s message read:

I’m so sorry for not being able to end the series in Weekly Shonen Jump. But I believe that in GIGA, I will be able to end the series in a manner that matches my current drawing pace and is much better for my health. I will do my best to conclude Black Clover in the most satisfying way possible. I know I am making you wait a little bit, but I promise to return to GIGA in the winter in a powered-up form, so please look forward to reading about Asta’s next adventure. Thank you for everything!

The official Shonen Jump News Twitter publicly revealed the announcement of the transfer during the final arc of Black Clover. The original announcement page plus an English translation of it was shared to the public.

Tabata was recently on hiatus from writing Black Clover in May 2023. It is available to read in Weekly Shonen Jump, and from Chapter 368 onwards, Jump GIGA. The anime is available from streaming services such as Hulu and Crunchyroll.
