Noelle Silva

Noelle Silva is the tritagonist and main heroine of Yuki Tabata's Black Clover. Born from a highly arrogant royal family, she is the second and youngest sister of Nozel, Nebra, and Solid Silva, as well as the fourth and final child of the late Acier Silva, who gave birth to her shortly before the latter was killed from the curse by the devil Megicula. Since childhood, she was abused and blatantly disregarded by her siblings, due to her lack of controlling her Water Magic inherited from her father and (according to Nozel) being "responsible" for killing Acier after giving birth. Unlike her siblings, especially her late mother, she ended up to become a member of the Black Bulls instead of her family's Silver Eagles.

Why She Rocks

 * 1) Unlike her siblings:
 * 2) * She holds a great amount of magic power, which is the reason why she was unable to control her magic until she can in later episodes.
 * 3) * She only sports cute pigtails (or "Tsundere Tails", due to her personality) instead of an ugly, frizzy hairstyle.
 * 4) * she was greatly influenced by her teammate and crush, Asta (who inspires others with optimism and positivity). He is the reason why Noelle changed her perspective on people who are far from royal (or "peasants") and was defended by him against her abusive siblings' unjust opinions.
 * 5) * She is willing to admit her failures to the Black Bulls after creating an uncontrolled water spell that nearly put her into unconsciousness.
 * 6) * She was greatly influenced by her teammate Asta, who inspires others with optimism and positivity (see WSR #4).
 * 7) She finally surpassed her own sadistic brother Solid with her Sea Dragon's Roar against his Sea Serpent Twine during the Royal Knights Selection Exam. TAKE THAT, SOLID!
 * 8) As of the Elf Reincarnation arc, she finally proved all of her siblings wrong that she controlled her Water Magic and summoned powerful spells such as the Valkyrie Armor inherited from her mother.
 * 9) Of all members of the Black Bulls, she has a great relationship with Asta despite her hostile tsundere tactics against him.
 * 10) * He is the reason why Noelle changed her perspective on people who are far from royal (or "peasants") and was defended by him against her abusive siblings' prejudiced opinions about her.
 * 11) Her Valkyrie Dress, a defensive spell inherited from her mother, is more powerful compared to other Water Creation Magic spells.
 * 12) As the series progresses, she has a great character development from being an arrogant and weak noblewoman to a courageous and powerful fighter.
 * 13) Her tragic backstory made the audiences change their initial views on Noelle, as she was a vain girl who almost declined her membership to the Black Bulls in her debut. This also made them oppose her mean-spirited siblings' discriminatory viewpoints.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Despite that she has a crush for Asta, her tsundere tactics often make him treated like crap at times.
 * 2) Prior to her character development, she was an example of A Mean Popular Girl (although she is not popular but only mean to those who are far from royal). Nevertheless, Noelle is not as loathsome as Solid and Nebra.
 * 3) The frequent uses of her catchphrase (see her quote in the infobox) can be annoying sometimes.

Trivia

 * Aside from Nebra's Mist Magic, which is a derivative of both Water and Air Magic, Noelle is the second child of the Silva Family who inherited only Water Magic from her father, the first is Solid Silva.
 * Her zodiac sign is Scorpio.
