I just saw the review for the new Shonen Jump Weekly manga called Black Clover. It is an interesting series with a good first chapter, however, the characters and it's feeling is very similar to Naruto's. It's about a young boy who wants to become Wizard King (Naruto) who is the rival of his adopted brother, who is smooth, cold, and very much like Sasuke. The monster in the legends that the Wizard King fought is obviously Kaguya. Read it and decide for yourself.

Just read. The link is on top of the paragraph. You'll see.

The first chapter and Asta are sort of a rip off of Naruto but the dream of being the top guy is in many mangas.

Very similar to Naruto, One Piece, and other mangas. Typical mangakas that lack inspiration when it comes to the main chars.

and naruto ripped of dbz and hxh. what's your point?

I know. I've been trolling some Naruto fans on my G+ page. A lot of them say that HxH will never be on Naruto's level of greatness XD

Very similar to Naruto, One Piece, and other mangas. Typical mangakas that lack inspiration when it comes to the main chars.

And that is why I read Berserk.

Berserk, Kingdom,Magician, Vagabond, Vinland Saga, Claymore, The Breaker, Re:Monster, Akira, Death Note..

Luckily for the rational manga critics there are decent mangas out there.

if you wanna piss off narutards, say:
Naruto's war arc is shit
Naruto Doesn't have a villain
all naruto villains are anti-heroes
call madara a very poor version of Aizen
it is worse than fairy tail

But aizen is uninteresting, ''as planned'', pretty boring in my opinion after a time

This Is Very Good , A Series I Could See Myself Following. However I Did Notice The Similarities. That Thief, I Could See Him Becoming Something Like Orochimaru .

Wizard King - Hokage
Asta - Naruto
Yuno - Sasuke
The Nun - Slightly Mirrors Sakura
Thief - Kind Of Like Oro


Asta Is Also An Underdog & Looked Down Upon By Everyone Else . He Isn't Gifted & A Natural Prodigy Like His Rival, So He Extensively Trained For Power, in an Alternative Way & Received It . He Ultimately Found A Way To Be On Par With His Rival.

Alot Of Similarities , But Im Thrilled To Follow This Story

Why did you capitalize all the words?

Is this going to be a monthly or weekly release?

No OP those are just archetypes existing since the dawn of Shonen writing an MC fighting against or has a rival or is fighting for a goal it just Black Clover appears too generic, almost all shonens are similar in this respect.
If you want something unique try browsing through Seinen series.
