Synopsis

The Seven Deadly Sins, along with Elizabeth Liones and Hawk, have won the Kingdom of Leones back from the Holy Knights. At long last, it's their time to indulge in the peaceful lives they fought for. From inedible meat pies, overdue battles, unexpected stalkers, and the butterflies of first love, the Sins are accompanied by their friends in their carefree, fun-filled time together. However, the calm is broken with the premonition of a new threat, bringing upon the signs of Holy War and threatening to shatter the peace of the Sins' easygoing days.

The Seven Deadly Sins: Signs of Holy War


To clarify, these OVAs are the transition from Season 1 to Season 2, where you can see the little events in between, including the introduction to the 10 Commandments. And to be clear, the title has no relevance. The topic of the holy war is dealt with in just 5 minutes during the 4 episodes, presented piece by piece at the end of each episode. The rest of the episodes are simply small fan service, the everyday life of the characters, and comedy.


Which honestly makes it better than the first season. In these 4 episodes, there was ...

Mixed Feelings
<Potential Spoilers>
I can only acknowledge the pointlessness of this season.

While signs of holy war are simply serving the purpose of being a filler arc, the arc is still somewhat enjoyable. Only it has no effect on progressing the story and very few characters experience any development. The animation is decent but feels awkward at times and there's nothing to comment on in terms of sound design.

The stories that take place during this season are minor considering the large scope that this world presents. Comparable to Naruto filler episodes where characters would have mini journies that don't progress the main story. While these are enjoyable, I ...

I went into this with mixed expectations after feeling conflicted about the first season of the show. The potential to be good is still there, and the first season of the show made a pretty decent job in making me want to know how the story continues. I was a bit confused to find that the sequel of the story is listed with only 4 episodes and was even more confused when I got through them.

This "season" basically consists of four episodes, which resemble four OVA episodes because nothing interesting or noteworthy happens. Skipping these episodes wouldn't result in missing out on much. The only ...
