Synopsis

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.

Before I say anything, I must address the far and away number one problem that's sure to hit you in the face like a freight train from the first minute of S4's first episode: the censorship. For whatever reason, be it Deen's decision or the network's, the first cour of S4 features some pretty distasteful censorship. Don't bother trying to scour the internet for a secret uncensored Blu-ray version. There isn't one.

What is censored and how? The violence is censored in two ways. First, occasionally, if there's gore, the gory element will simply be blacked out. There is a scene where Ban uses his Snatch ...

Mixed Feelings

I've been always very surprised to see the rating for this show. I like Seven Deadly Sins, I've watched the first three (four for Netflix) seasons consecutively in two or three months, and recently I've rewatched this third/fourth season to prepare myself for the fifth and final. And, to be honest, this time I understood much better why the rating were so low.

Now, this season of Seven Deadly Sins is about Meliodas' rebirth and his will to save Elizabeth from a curse they share. However, things gets quickly worse after the appearence of several demons who want to bring Meliodas back to the dark side, ... much to the dismay of his comrades.

What I liked about SDS was the fact that it was a very simple shonen anime in a fantasy setting, but that it also gave a lot of space to its characters. The plot is luckily not too protagonist-centric, as after even the first season, you could see a change in all characters. Even members of the supporting cast such as Griamore or Gilthunder grow and become different character from what they were in the beginning. There are some problems, indeed, with the plot twists, that sometimes are a bit too Deus ex machina-ish, or absurd (such as the one with Merlin in the previous season), but for the most part they didn't bother me.
The problem with the third/fourth season is, to me, that it's not only veeeery slow, but also that, unluckily, it jumps the shark.

While making a plot not too linear is the basic of writing a long story, what happens to Meliodas and the death of certain characters are a bit too much. They all seem way too sudden, and it does not seem to matter that much. A character dies? Oh well, ok, he died. A good guy becomes evil? Well, sh*t happens.
It seems like, despite these things, the plot will remain the same. "Despite that dead of an important character, the ending will still be the same, so don't worry about it!", but then, why should I care?
All in all, the third/fourth season seems to be there just to elongate the plot, and nothing more.

While the soundtrack remains superb, way too many times it seem badly utilized, which leads us to the following problem: the direction.
Many are disappointed by the lame animations that Studio Deen provided, but i feel that, instead, the real problem comes from a direction that wants only to give us the scene as they are presented in the manga, rather than give them some strength and impact. The One Piece anime is slow and criticized for stretching way too much its episode, but sometimes they add very beautiful action scenes, with spectacular animations and a lot of frames. Instead, what can we say about this season of SDS? The fight scenes are static and uninteresting, like if they were there just because they had to put them in.

I can only hope that the final season will be better. But this one has lowered my enthusiasm for an anime I was really loving.

Brace yourselves for "The Seven Deadly Sins: Imperial Wrath of the Gods," a season that epitomizes everything wrong with rushed adaptations. This is a series that has managed to turn a promising narrative into a dumpster fire.

Let's talk about the animation. Or, should I say, the lack of it. "Imperial Wrath of the Gods" takes a nosedive in animation quality that makes even the worst filler episodes look like masterpieces. Character designs become inconsistent, movements lack fluidity, and the action scenes, once a highlight, turn into a slideshow of poorly choreographed static images. It's as if the animators decided to take a coffee break and ...
