Nanatsu no Taizai: Kamigami no Gekirin

After saving the Kingdom of Liones from the 10 Commandments, Meliodas and the Seven Deadly Sins are enjoying their time off. However, things aren't as peaceful as they seem, as the Sins are put through various trials to become strong enough to defeat the 10 Commandments and to overcome their past trauma.

With help from past figures, the Sins are tasked with defeating the 10 Commandments and putting an end to their evil plans that began ten thousand years ago. The Sins begin to uncover the truth about each other, as well as those who stood before them. With this knowledge in hand, the battle against the 10 Commandments has only just begun.

Nanatsu no Taizai: Kamigami no Gekirin continues to follow the Seven Deadly Sins and those that they meet on their journey. Through their adventures, they realize that their actions have had greater consequences on the present than they could have ever expected.

Writing this review just because the rating of this anime has surprised me a lot.Most of the people rated it very low from the very start just because of the animation. Animation of course is important but it is not everything as long as I can make out whats happening and it is clear I am okay with it. Additonally, the animation wasn't even that bad it slowly got better although the while blood was retarded.Rating an anime solely on animation is very stupid.Lets get into my honest review now.

Story 10:The plot of Nanatsu No Taizi is easily a 10 without even thinking about it ... the way the writer reveals and creates new mysteries at the same time is insane.He also connects all the plot points perfectly this season.Everything makes sense and you get surprised , and shook from the secrets revealed.

Art 6:As I said was okay still not berserk level.Had some cgi but for the most part it wasn't that bad specially after the beginning.

Sound 8:Now the soundtracks in Nanatsu No Taizi are always amazing from emotional ones , to the exciting fight osts.They are used frequently throughout this season with new ones created for important moments.

Character 9:Character in Nanatsu No Taizi is a very strong point each character is built and progresses very nicely power and character wise.Each representing a sin carries out their role perfectly in the story.

Enjoyment 9:Enjoyed this season a lot even though I had read the manga I was wishing that I didn't read the manga so I could experience it truly.

Overall : Easily an 8 with good art I would've made it a 9 it will still never reach the 10 mark because an anime has to be truly perfect to get a 10.The ending of this season was not it ending in the middle of an Arc is just not smart to do.There were better endings the last episode felt like a normal episode and not a finale.If you wont finish the arc dont start it or atleast put a better ending.

Mixed Feelings

(no spoilers)
So, for people scared by the 1 out of 10 reviews; no, it's really not that bad. Is the animation a little disappointing? Yeah. Does it totally ruin watching the show? No. So, that being said, if you liked the last seasons, you'll definitely like this one.

With that out of the way, time for the review!

So to get started with the story, it develops really quickly in this season. Strangely though, I find myself still bored throughout this season. I think there is just something off with the pacing that makes it feel so slow.

About the animation, I have already lightly touched on ... that. It definitely is disappointing to see the animation quality go down, but that was honestly not a big deal for me. If animation is really important for you, especially in a shounen anime, then yeah, this might be a problem for you. That being said, I personally care more about story than the artwork.

This is where I'm going to be talking about some spoilers for this season, so if you are planning on watching it, definitely stop reading because these plot twists are honestly the only good part about this season.

I was really surprised at Elizabeth's awakening. Did not really think she was the cursed reincarnation of a goddess. That being said, how is it still possible that she literally does nothing this whole season combat wise? The first season, I understood that she probably wouldn't kick ass yet and that she needed some more character development. But in the second season, when her powers first start showing themselves, she still did nothing. And finally, when she is a literal GODDESS!! she still does absolutely anything except for one move she pulled on Meliodis' brother in the final few episodes. Please, creators, I'm begging you; can we ppllleeeaasssee see Elizabeth kick some ass???? Thanks :)

Next on to Meliodis. I actually really enjoyed him kinda "turning to the dark side" and losing his emotions; the only thing willing him to move forward his sworn promise to Elizabeth to break this curse. They have a very interesting dynamic this season, with them both wanting the same thing in the end, but both having very different ways of getting there. Although they are technically on the same side, they still fight each other. Very coolll writers.

All that said and done; was the animation disappointing? Yeah. Was the story a little iffy sometimes? Yeah. But if you enjoyed the last seasons, you'll definitely like this one and it for sure won't ruin your enjoyment of prior seasons. Happy watching!

I expected nothing and I am still let down.

This truly is dreadful show. My expectations never were high since Seven
Deadly Sins is truly a super mediocre show. But oh man it was far worse than I expected. White fucking blood? Ah, yes finally the enemies cum after being killed. Of course the censoring is also horrible. Well, they did eventually stop using white blood somewhere around the middle of the show.
The animation sometimes feels like watching a PowerPoint slideshow. It feels like their budget is super low. They are not even trying to animate it properly. Why in the hell would they hire such incompetent ... people for this. The director and series compositioner is also bad at their job. Finally a show that rivals Fairy Tail.

Starting off with the story: It continues straight from the last season with mostly filler hooray I know. Then in the second episode the story actually starts, King and Diane and strolling around the fairy forest and meets Drole and Gloxinia who train them by sending them back to the past that takes place about few hundred years in the past duh. They must get stronger and escape said simulation by doing something they originally did not do. Well, finally in the 7th episode the Sins are back together and ready to take on they demon king. We then follow Gowther on how he lost his memories or something and in the end he get emotions, quite shocking I know. As the sins are back far stronger they go and attack Zeldris and the other wanks. And now we are met with the most horrible animation the world has to offer. I had read the manga and I said "Oh Meliodas vs Escanor is a good fight, I hope they do justice for it in anime" they did not. It was horrifying. They couldn't make still images look good. Then Elizabeth is going through a phase where she remembers everything and is soon to die. So now it is a race against time, they need to defeat the demon king so the curse on Elizabeth will be lifted.

Characters are the same as last season but we got to know more about Elizabeths past, Meliodas, Gloxinia, Drole, Gowther and even Oslow. None of them have changed since season 2. Then we get few new characters who are Zeldris' companions or something. One of them is Meliodases teacher and one is just forgettable. Also few arc angels arrive onto the scene. Of course Meliodas is stuck in his assault form which just looks stupid mostly because the animators can't draw for shit.

The soundtrack is still pretty lit so I gotta give them that. There is that one theme that comes in every good fight. But if anything at least they got a good composer for the music department. Then the openings. The first one is just horrible. The song "Frontier" was kinda bad. The music wasn't the greatest and the clips were not good at all. I can't remember anything cool happening in that opening. Maybe the T-posing. And then the second opening. This one is actually good. The song "Delete" is a very catchy and a great song, Thank You SID. The animation in it looks good. The visuals are actually cool looking. There was Escanors The One and lots of cool fights.

Again, the animation is beyond horrible. It looks like it was done in paint or then photoshop or powerpoint. They just kinda fly around looking like absolute dog shit.

I have not enjoyed this show and probably never will. Only thing I have gotten is laughs mostly because of the shit animation.


Would I ever recommend this? Hell nah son. You should honestly just skip Seven Deadly Sins fully. Or if you want then read the manga.
