Netflix is listing the fourth season of the Black Clover television anime for release in India on June 24 and is listing the live-action series of Moyashi Fujisawa's Burn the House Down (Mitarai-ke Enjō Suru) manga for release in India on July 13. The streaming service is also listing the second season of Baki Hanma, the anime of Keisuke Itagaki's Hanma Baki - Son of Ogre manga, for release in India without a release date.

Netflix began streaming the Black Clover anime in India beyond the first season in February 2021. The Black Clover anime ended in its 170th episode in March 2021.

Netflix describes the story:

Asta heads to the Forest of Witches to meet with the Witch Queen. He learns that the forest is coming under attack from two approaching armies.

The anime premiered in Japan in October 2017. The show was originally listed with 51 episodes, but it continued into a new season with episode 52 in October 2018, and continued on again into a new season in October 2019. The show went on hiatus starting in April 2020 due COVID-19, and resumed in July 2020 with episode 133.

Tatsuya Yoshihara (Monster Musume, Yatterman Night, Muromi-san, Long Riders!) directed the anime at Studio Pierrot. Kazuyuki Fudeyasu (Is the order a rabbit?, Tantei Opera Milky Holmes, Yatterman Night) supervised the series scripts. Itsuko Takeda (Ristorante Paradiso, Level E, Blue Drop) was the character designer, and Kumiko Tokunaga (Kingdom) was the sub-character designer. Minako Seki (The Silver Guardian, Kingdom) composed the music.

Netflix began streaming the Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King (Black Clover: Mahо̄tei no Ken) anime film in India on June 16.

The live-action Burn the House Down series will debut worldwide on Netflix on July 13.

Yūichirō Hirakawa (live-action ERASED, Rookies, The Promised Neverland) is directing the series, and Arisa Kaneko (live-action Orange, Helter Skelter, Densha Otoko film) is writing the scripts. Takeshi Kobayashi (Ai to Makoto, Love Letter) is composing the music. Office Crescendo is producing with Netflix.

Kodansha USA Publishing began releasing the manga in English in June 2022, and it released the eighth volume on January 24. Kodansha USA Publishing describes the manga:

Shizuka Yamauchi, 25, housekeeper. Makiko Mitarai, 46, amateur model and perfect housewife. Though strangers on the outside, the two share a past—one Shizuka feels she needs to set right, to bring her mother justice. But Makiko has secrets of her own, and Shizuka will need to tread carefully if she's to get to the bottom of it all…without getting burned.

Fujisawa serialized the manga in Kodansha's Kiss magazine from 2017 to 2021, and Kodansha published eight volumes in Japan.
