My first impression after watching the first season was that the anime was amazing but I couldn't wait for the second season so I decided to read the manga and at the time the new arc was barely just brewing and it was amazing, I was reading this, One Piece, and Bleach (which was barely finishing) and in the past it was the manga I was the most hyped up about once a new chapter came out.... After a few years a bunch of chapters came out and that hype died away by a lot and it's just sad because this series started out sogreat but it just turned into another pathetic shonen manga. Like seriously... the second arc was and still is a great arc even with all its flaws and it was even preparing the ingredients to concoct the next arc to be great also... Then the supposed Holy War Arc started and all it did was ruin everything, unneeded swerves, unneeded power ups, unneeded characters, unneeded revivals, unneeded moments, useless plot points, two not one but two useless end villains, plots points that never got explained, story became so complicated, the same fucking Shonen Friendship Trope, and the list just keeps going on and on. You know it's sad when I didn't even know that this manga had just ended and that's pathetic and I swear to God that someone else had authorship and created the Holy War Arc because it had so so so so much hype behind it but all it did was become another sad manga. When this manga was still on its second arc, the community score for this was an eight and my score was a high nine for it but now it's around the seven range and my score is also a 7 and I would've given it a 6 or 5 but the beginning is still some of the best reading anyone can get into... will not everybody but still! I keep this short Story (7): I already gave my point on this and up to this point I still scratching my head on how it became so convoluted... Art (10): Sorry for my cursing but I fucking love the art here, with unique looking characters and some of the scenery it's just downright gorgeous. Sometimes the art looks kinda wonky, especially til the end but that doesn't deter my score at all! Character (6): Out of the Seven Deadly Sins, I love Meliodas, Escanor, and Ban, I meh King and Dianne, I just don't care for Gowther and Merlin. Everyone else I really don't care about them other than Elizabeth who is just fine as a good character and I absolutely fucking hate Hawk. One more thing before I move on, I really did like Arthur Pendragon at first but as the story progress he basically became a useless plot point up til the final few chapters! I never been so disappointed in anything ever and hope the sequel does him some justice but I highly doubt that. Enjoyment (5): It would've been a 10 at first but again I stopped caring about when a new chapter came out and didn't even know that ended a few weeks ago. Plus I went on to read better manga Overall (7): You can skip out on this if you want to because you'll end up like me and many others, disappointed... Then again you'll be missing out on some of the greatest fights that involved Escanor, Ban, and Meliodas.... so again, it's up to you!
In a world where injustice prevails, the Holy Knights of Britannia protect their homeland with their unparalleled magic and strength. Their most sought-after targets are "The Seven Deadly Sins": a group of criminals once regarded as the strongest of Britannia's Holy Knights. Their supposed conspiracy to overthrow the Kingdom of Liones led to their defeat at the hands of the Holy Knights, but rumors persist that the seven infamous knights still live. Ten years later, the Holy Knights ironically stage a coup d'état themselves and capture the King of Liones, installing themselves as the new rulers of the kingdom. Elizabeth Liones, the third princess of the kingdom, sets out on a journey to find the Seven Deadly Sins and request their aid when she stumbles upon a bar owned by Meliodas, the Dragon's Sin of Wrath and the former leader of the disgraced knights. The pair sets out to find Meliodas' old comrades, but will it be hope or despair that awaits them in their travels? [Written by MAL Rewrite]
As a guy who mostly reads/watches shounen its's a 7 but for those who dont like the generic shounen stuff would probably not like it. So if u like shounen and u dont know what to read/watch i would recommend it. If u want something new (in terms of story) then this aint for you. I forgot to mention that it has very good characters so if u are a character driven person this is for u. This is also my first review so pls like it so i can be a liitle happier. I actually dont care i just want to write a review butMy anime list says that it needs to be longer so i am filling this with random stuff.
This review may contain spoilers!!! . . ok, so i didn't dropped this because i already had advanced a lot on the history but I wish i hadn't picked up this Manga, when I first saw the anime it didn't looked that bad but the animation was horrible we already know that so i read the manga, my first problems with this was: 1. With the power of love I realize you!!! : this was so cringe, it was awful how every villian was later like uwu I'm good demon actually, and all of the sudden everyone has a beloved one and that love is what saveseveryone, man that's was just so cringe for me. 2. Sizes: I noticed that the more power you have, the more adult you look, but why is it that almost everyone have to look like a kid in here, i wasn't that annoyed on how Meliodas looked but after seeing his "more adult form" i couldn't help to think that i would have enjoyed this love and romantic story if everyone looked more adult, even Merlin who real form was a kid, i couldn't take this seriously, it's even laughable!! 3. The art: at first it was like "oh how cute the art is", but seriously, it's not like it was sooo bad, but there was always an arm more big than the other lmao, it was so ugly to look at 4. The ending: it was so f***** boring, the author just added more and more fights and for what?? even Meliodas brother was "uwu i luv my brother and I have someone I love" and his more powerful form of course is an adult too, the author just started to add more characters but they didn't make me feel anything, nor sad or excited, it was really bad, the only villian design i really enjoyed was the demon king, if the story had ended with Elizabeth dead that could have been a more a good impact imo. Final: tbh another reason i just kept reading was for gowther how i really liked, Jericho who imo was better than that Elaine, and for Derieri and Monspeet, because this two story was more interesting and likeable than all the 3000 years story of Meliodas and Elizabeth. I gave it a 6 because sometimes I did enjoy the story but I just couldn't enjoy it ALL of it, i really wish I didn't read this, but at least I enjoyed the few characters that I liked
I genuinely liked nanatsu no taizai for a long time, first 100 chapters were a silly and fun battle shounen worthy of praise (even with the problematic way that Meliodas treated Elizabeth), but from then on it started to get lost. Even with the arrival of Escanor, a character that worked very well for being the essence of what the manga should always have been, the author was unable to maintain the level of the first arcs, leaving aside everything he had done right, opting for a narrative more and more convoluted and uninteresting, trying to be something bigger and more epic than it should. What startedas a fun reading ended as a pretty bad experience and a lesson on how not to write a battle shounen.
A pretty good story that went on for too long and ended poorly. There was one point where I thought oh this is the ending, but then it continued on for at least twenty more chapters. Then when everything seem concluded and was finally ready to end, they created a side storyline that seemed to come out of nowhere and then didn't even finish explaining it. Overall it wasn't a bad manga. Art is hard to understand sometimes but not badly done. Characters are fairly interesting and parts of it were a fun read, but the ending was severely disappointing. It honestly felt like theauthor didn't care enough to properly end this series. Story 5/10 Art 6/10 Character 6/10 Enjoyment 6/10 Overall 6/10
