* HypocriticalHumor: Asta tells the Anti-Magic Devil that he doesn't want to get his butt kicked by someone as short as him, despite being around the same height and [[PintSizedPowerhouse having beaten up enemies throughout the entire story]], many of whom have underestimated him ''because'' of his short height.

Asta tells the Anti-Magic Devil that he doesn't want to get his butt kicked by someone as short as him, despite being around the same height and [[PintSizedPowerhouse having beaten up enemies throughout the entire story]], many of whom have underestimated him ''because'' of his short height.height.
** Asta several times throughout the series considers Yuno hot and more attractive to women than he is, but as time goes on Asta seems to become far more of a ChickMagnet than Yuno ever was and never realizes it.



** If his swords have been dropped or something is disrupting his ability to return them to his hand, as happened during his fight with Dante, he's completely helpless unless he either can get into a state to retrieve his weapons or finds a another compatible sword to absorb into his grimoire.



* StrongFamilyResemblance: [[spoiler:Asta's mother is basically a female version of him, even having the same IdiotHair.]]

* LightDarknessJuxtaposition:
** With [[LightIsGood Yuno]], despite neither having powers directly relating to the above. Asta is a member of the Black Bulls (with the appropriately coloured uniform]], has a black grimoire and wields demonic looking AntiMagic in contrast to Yuno's white Golden Dawn uniform, bright grimoire and his more ethereal Wind Magic, especially once he gets Sylph. The contrast becomes greater with their respective {{Super Mode}}s, as well as Yuno [[spoiler:Gaining [[StarPower Star Magic]] at the climax of the Spade Kingdom arc]].
** With [[LightOsNotGood Lict/Patry]], who wears [[GoldAndWhiteAreDivine gold and white robes]] and wields the rare [[LightEmUp Light Magic]], in contrast to Asta's darker clothing and more ominous looking AntiMagic.
** To Conrad in ''Sword of the Wizard King'', especially [[spoiler:once the latter goes OneWingedAngel. The former Wizard Kings rainbow aura wings and white sword contrasting against his opponents darker aura and batlike wings]].
** Finally, [[spoiler:to [[BigBad Lucius Zogratis]] in the final arc, Asta's Devil Union armour having a black and red colour scheme, {{horn|edHumanoid}}s, HellishPupils, [[PowerGivesYouWings bat like wings]], clawed hands and more prominent fangs in contrast to the BigBad's white, feathered wings, antlers, UnusualHalo, and overall angelic appearance.]]



** While he can NoSell damn near anything magic related, against ''physical'' objects his swords are effective as any other, letting cannier opponents get around his defenses by chucking existing, nonmagical materials at him.



* MagicEnhancement: In the final arc [[spoiler:he learns the art of Zetten from the Land of the Rising Sun, and how to imbue his ''allies'' with AntiMagic, raising their offensive potential to the point they can defeat Lucius' [[LightIsNotGood Paladin and Guardian Angels]].]]



* PersonalityPowers: With Liebe, they weren't chosen by mana, what with being born without any magic whatsoever, and as a result resolve to make their own choices. [[spoiler:Their power together while wielding the Demon-Slasher Katana in Devil Union represents this, ''choosing'' what it cuts and not those it wants to protect.]]

to:

* PersonalityPowers: Each of his AntiMagic swords reflects an aspect of his personality.
** The Demon Slayer is his first ([[{{BFS}} and largest]]) sword, reflecting his unyielding will, sheer physical might, and it's ability to [[AttackReflector knock back magic attacks]] reflecting how he lets any discouragement bounce off him. Not to mention it's Black Divider (making it even ''bigger'') coinciding with his own growing strength and refusal to be left behind by [[TheRival Yuno]].
** The Demon Dweller is his second sword, it's lighter weight and ability to [[EnergyAbsorption absorb magic]] meshing with his great speed and rapid advancement in skill from watching other swordsmen fight as the series continues. [[spoiler:Learning Zetten lets him use it to empower his friends, perfectly fitting for someone who [[TheParagon inspires those around him]].
** The Demon Destroyer is his third sword, and possesses the ability to [[DispelMagic undo magic that attacks internally (like poison) and acts on a larger scale]], letting him function as an impromptu CombatMedic. This befits his determination to help his allies as well as his empathetic nature, wanting to spare even his enemies the pain of a prolonged battle.

Added DiffLines:

* RedHotMasculinity: His AntiMagic has red outlines that become more prominent in his SuperMode, and is the most obviously [[MusclesAreMeaningful muscular and physically powerful of his squadmates (barring Yami)]], befitting TheHero of the story.


Added DiffLines:

** Downplayed given there's less personal investment on their part, but even Magic Knight Captains like [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Nozel]] and [[TheAce Fuegoleon]] consider him and Yuno competition for the title of [[TheArchmage Wizard King]].


Added DiffLines:

** Frequently plays this with the rest of the Black Bulls, their more traditional magic making for excellent support to the offensive capabilities of his AntiMagic, whether it be through mobility ([[ThinkingUpPortals Finral]] and [[MasterOfThreads Vanessa]]), counters ([[TrapMaster Zora]]), or general combat support ([[MultiformBalance Nacht]]).

Added DiffLines:

* CloseRangedCombatant: His fighting style largely consists of getting close to his opponents and beating them into submission with his AntiMagic swords, his lack of ranged options making this a necessity. Becomes increasingly downplayed as he adds more swords and skills to his arsenal, willing to [[ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks throw his weapons]] and becomes capable of {{Sword Beam}}s.


Added DiffLines:

* ColorMotifs: Prominently black and red, in both his uniform and his AntiMagic.
** The former is prevalent on his Black Bull robes reflecting his darker powerset, yet also fits as a colour symbolising power, protection, and comfort, which describe him to a tee.
** Red befits his HotBlooded nature, becoming excited very easily and having a determined and courageous outlook befitting TheHero.


Added DiffLines:

* ElementalMtoifs:
** Is strongly associated with Darkness, his AntiMagic taking on dark colours and {{No Sell}}ing any magic similar to actual users of Darkness Magic. Him gaining his grimoire has an ominous shadow appear behind him, and his captain and vice captain wield Darkness and Shadow Magic respectively. Befitting the abilities it gives, he can be a surprisingly ruthless and pragmatic fighter, quickly cutting down his foes defenses.
** Has a less prominent association with fire, having initially tried to cast a fireball spell before learning of his UnSorceror status, and his first use of [[SuperMode Black Asta]] occurs against Ladros wielding Fire Magic. Quite fitting for someone that is so warm and encouraging to his companions, yet utterly relentless towards his enemies in battle.


Added DiffLines:

** To his squadmate Noelle. Asta is a poor orphan, [[UnSorceror has zero magic]], wears casual clothing, and despite his situation remains absolutely determined to become the Wizard King, rarely backing down from any obstacle put in his way. By contrast, Noelle was born into royalty, suffers from ''[[UnskilledButStrong too much]]'' [[UnskilledButStrong magic]], dresses elegantly, and (initially) has serious self esteem issues. Asta starts out as a CloseRangeCombatant who overwhelms his opponents with his physical might and AntiMagic, and retains the same basic approach even as he gains ranged options, while Noelle starts developing as a LongRangeFighter, she eventually shifts to a balance of it and MagicKnight as the series continues. [[spoiler:Both even get a NextTierPowerUp in the form if a FusionDance, Asta gaining a more demonic appearance while Noelle's evokes the image of an angel]]. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Finally, while they both have silver coloured hair, Asta's is short and spiky while Noelle's is long and held in pigtails]].


Added DiffLines:

** Acts as the finesse to [[spoiler:Liebe's]] force during their fight. [[spoiler:Liebe remotely controls their arsenal of {{BFS}}'s to relentlessly attack Asta, while the latter skillfully wields [[KatanasAreJustBetter Yami's katana]], managing to deflect and dodge everything his opponent throws at him, showing just how much [[MasterSwordsman sword skills have grown]] in the process]].

* BloodBrothers: Due to growing up in the church together, Asta and Yuno consider each other as family and more connected than people who're related by blood.



* InconsistentSpelling: Another unfortunate case due to Japanese phonetics. Asta or Aster? Though the latter would make more sense in the context of the English language, Asta is currently the official accepted translation.



* ParentalAbandonment: He was left at the orphanage's doorstep. Asta shares this aspect with Yuno, who was left there along with him. They grew up together and became each others' rivals, and thus the two are like BloodBrothers in the absence of actual blood relatives/family. [[spoiler:His mother Licita left him at the church because of her condition that absorbed the magic and life of those near her.]]

* BattleAura: In his most determined moments, his enemies see him with a dark aura in the shape of a devil, [[spoiler:more specifically [[DarkIsNotEvil Liebe's shadow form]]]].



* TheBigGuy: Quickly becomes this for the Black Bulls after joining, with the combination of his [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower absurd physical abilities]] and AntiMagic [[CoolSword swordss]] making him one of their heavy hitters. And he only gets stronger from there.



* ForceAndFinesse: Asta, a magic-less, muscled fighter who wields large anti-magic swords to cut through magic, is the Force to Yuno's Finesse, a gifted mage who uses his finely trained magic to condense wind into weapons that he can fire with great precision.

** [[MaleMightFemaleFinesse Also forms this with Noelle]], being a [[MusclesAreMeaningful muscular, physical fighter]] whose primary weapon is a {{BFS}} in contrast to Noelle's development into a [[LadyOfWar graceful and elegant fighter]] that wields finely crafted [[MakingASplash water armaments]].



* MasterSwordsman: Starts out with a rather rough fighting style thanks to being self taught, mostly using his {{BFS}} AntiMagic properties and sheer weight to beat enemies into submission. As the series progresses, he accumulates enough experience fighting against and alongside straighter examples to greatly refine his skills, reaching a level of skill comparable to Yami. [[spoiler:Best demonstrated in his fight with Liebe, where despite being down an arm and using Yami's katana (which he just obtained) he quickly managed to overwhelm his opponent while skillfully deflecting the devils own assault with the rest of his swords.]]



* SwordAndSorcerer: Asta is the Sword to Yuno's Sorcerer whenever the two team up together. Asta is the only person in the setting who cannot use magic, and wields giant anti-magic swords to fight up close and cancel enemies' magic. Yuno is a gifted mage blessed with a four-leaf clover grimoire, and casts ranged spells such as gales and blades of wind from afar.

* TeensAreShort: Fifteen years old, yet not much taller than the younger children at the orphanage he lived at. It's especially noticeable when he's standing next to his friend and rival Yuno, who stands head and shoulders above him despite being around the same age. They were even the same height as children. However, he has a lot of muscle to make up for his height.

dewicking Senpai Kohai


* SenpaiKohai:
** Because Asta's enthusiastic and one of the youngest and newest members of the Black Bulls, he often refers to the older members as sempai, especially Magna. PlayedForLaughs when Zora takes advantage of his sempai status towards Asta when he reveals that he's a Black Bull.
** Is this with Mars due to them both having trained under Fanzell, who notes that Mars technically has superiority as his older pupil when the two work together to save Fana.

Asta has way more than just two swords now.


To compensate for his crippling handicap, Asta has trained extensively since he was 5, granting him [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower superhuman strength, speed and stamina]]. Asta also wields the Demon-Slayer and Demon-Dweller Swords, mysterious artifacts containing a form of energy known as Anti-Magic that is able to nullify and cancel out magic abilities. As a result, these blades can deflect magic projectiles, cut through spells or cancel them out completely, allowing Asta to level the playing field.
