    Nanatsu no Taizai/The Seven Deadly Sins

    http://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/8/65409l.jpg

    The "Seven Deadly Sins," a group of evil knights who conspired to overthrow the kingdom of Britannia, were said to have been eradicated by the Holy Knights, although some claim that they still live. Ten years later, the Holy Knights have staged a Coup d'état and assassinated the king, becoming the new, tyrannical rulers of the kingdom. Elizabeth, the king's only daughter, sets out on a journey to find the "Seven Deadly Sins," and to enlist their help in taking back the kingdom.



    This is probably my favorite of the new shows so far this season. I am getting a huge retro fantasy anime feel from it and I'm loving it. The premise may seem a bit simple, but obviously it's not cut and dry as it seems. It has funny and goofy characters. And I really like the main character.

    The fights so far have been pretty ridiculous and I've heard they get to DBZ levels later. Can't wait for more! Also really wanna meet the other Deadly Sins.

    Yup, you'll pretty much need to read the manga, to see the "waaay far into the anime" fights where they literally blow up mountains and cities with some attacks. I'm sure the 2nd episodes 1 attack destroying half a town gives you an idea of how crazy things can get

    Loving it. DBZ-style over-the-top battles without the flying and charging up.

    Seems like not a ton of content for an anime atm though. It's really not that far into the manga.

    Hoping it gets up to where the manga is with that one guy as the demon guy. its listed at 24 episodes, so it may not get that far ;/

    The manga itself seems like the arc might soon be over so I can see the anime just following that.

    What chapter are they on? 90something? The could easily get through a ton of that as most of the first few chapters literally did almost nothing over a few chapters. I can see them drawing out some of the fight scenes. But I wonder if this is going to be the final arc or if they're going to try and Naruto/Bleach this manga.

    Britannia and over the top DBZ fights?

    So. How long before Norio Wakamoto shows up?

    As well as anything that could involve King Arthur and Merlin.


    The current arc looks to be ending which could be where the anime stops. But there are enough little tidbits tossed in to continue the story. Not to forget they still haven't found every sin

    They also still need to go into the inevitable flashback.

    Spoiler: show
    In which Meliodas practically erased the previous kingdom he was with.

    Very enjoyable episode this week. Some nice character development for Meliadoul. Can't wait to see his actual wrath unleashed, whenever that happens.

    I am late to the party but if this is from the same manga that someone posted in the manga thread that has super crazy fights, then I am going to enjoy this.
