Welp, Guila just killed herself. RIP

The episode was good imo since it has great tension and poor Ban. I suppose this guy is very used to getting stabbed by this point. There were some flashbacks of Ban/Elaine again. (I think they adapted that extra chapter or rather the remaining half of it).

Elaine is adorable though since she forms a bond with Ban. Hello to immorality. Elaine's reunion with Ban was nice to watch.

That female Holy knight "killed" herself to get into it. Oh, so that girl in Suzuki-san's character's memory was FukuJun's character's sister. More memory showing that she was killed because he wasn't able to protect her. That female Holy knight appears. She is strong and even the two's skills don't work.

FukuJun's character stoned Suzuki-san's character, but sister unstoned him, just like she did when she was hit then and gave him the water. She also wants him to help out. And because accidentally meeting the princes, FukuJun's character agrees to help out?

lol @ chibi preview part. Back to 17:00 next week.

No. See what A1 cutting scenes make with the interpratations? One more time, they ruined part of the series.

King doesn't know anything about Ban's story. None of the sins knows about other sins.

King only knows what is common knowledge. After Ban killed the demon, he is arrested:

They made it pretty clear that King didn't know though. If he knew, why would he be surprised about What Elaine was saying and stuff? And that last stab was obviously aimed at the white girl.

Fairly good episode imo, still hoping to get some kind of explination about the holy knights though..
Kind of weird to see how much more powerful this white girl is, compared to the ones we've seen previously (possibly except Gilthunder). Hopefully they'll elaborate a bit on that sometime.
Other than that I think the pacing and flashbacks were well done.

Yeah, I haven't read the manga, but that's what I got out of the episode as well: King got the wrong impression, and Ban isn't really interested in setting him straight, since he probably does feel guilty on some level.

I agree with you about King and the last stab
About how powerful the white holy knight, we will get explanation in some next episodes, the same as the manga.

Kids: Kill yourself.

Guila: k.

It was an OK, maybe good episode. The flashback was hype with dat awesome music, even though they skipped a lot of the conversation between ban and elaine.

Is it just me or is the animation quality declining?

@Forever_A...Aren't u being a bit too bitchy <_<...It wasn't as impacting as the manga. That's true and they did skip stuff (Which is unfortunate since I loved their interactions so damn much OTP <3 [Well they kept the "If only he came to steal me" and her Blush when he agreed] but it was still completely understandable even for an anime only viewer. I would've definitely preferred if they made it one full ep instead of cuts and pieces like that though. But the atmosphere and the OST were really good :3

The emotions during Ban closing his eyes after seeing Elaine drinking the youth spring then suddenly feeling her making him swallow it all was really nicely done. And so was the "I'll make u..." then "At least let me continue" when she died before him completing the sentence :*(

Anyway, loved this ep. The fight was fun. Just gotta love how chill they all are while supposedly getting their asses kicked XD Some explanations about each of the Sin's magic was nice too ^^

Diane was cute and lol as usual with how she was happy about Mel being protected by her Oppai :3 And her "I don't think I'm gonna make it captain...can u kiss me" XD
Also Dat "Yada" when Ban asked her to protect him too lol XD

Loved the Elaine kissing Ban scene and poor King as usual XD Being him is really suffering. U gotta feel bad for him not being able to see Elaine while Ban was ^^;
Dat stab doe XD Stabbing Ban in the back to hit Guila lol XD He totally hates this guy XD

Time for some King ass kicking nxt ep :D

I will say that I would have liked them to get every scene of their interactions in there. Still possible they show the aftermath for Ban that was left out early next episode though.

As a whole I thought the episode was fine. It got the best moments with Ban and Elaine and her feeding him the spring of youth was a good scene. Just showed how each wanted the other to get out of there alive if nothing else. But in the end Elaine had enough left in her to make sure Ban was the one who'd survive. The show definitely doesn't hold off on showing some bloody scenes though. Ban's right side almost cut off and Elaine taking that shot through the middle.

Got to feel for King. Shouldering plenty of guilt himself and feeling like his sister just hated him. But that wasn't really the issue. Not so much the spirit showing, but memory and feeling coming together. Maybe King was a bit too focused on his own guilt to see her right away.

And the showdown with the Holy Knight had its own fun aspect. The first time the group really has seemed to struggle against someone since the show started.

Guila is really somewhat Insane....Really who in their freaking Right Mind would strike themselves in chest.
King is wanting revenge, tough I wonder what really happened in the forest who attacked and why Ban, by the rumors, stabbed Elaine. ....So the Demons arrived huh.

Yes Hawk....you are freaking way too close!!! XD Guila is honestly one of the most Powerful and Bad Ass Holy Knights ever...along with Gilthunder....and Hauser, even if he is not powerful he is true Knight and Bad Ass with his own style.

Guila's Seiyu fits her. and Demons just made themselves an Enemy that will grind them to painful bloody mess. Elaine was so self-sacrificing...and Loyal...but that Gave birth of Violent Ban.

and Looks like King will join into Fray....One of the Strongest beings in the World.


@Forever... and any of you checked the ending scene after the credits? there is that you were looking

Awwwn, a romance with a loli ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ
But it's ok, because she's over 700 years old, amirite, guise? Well, who cares, it was cute as hell. Hell, demons, get it?

That other girl on the other hand is pretty creepy with that fucking smile. Gosh I don't think that face ever looked not creepy in the entire history. It's one of those ''rapist'' faces.

I somehow can't believe they can't beat her while being 3 vs 1 and by being almost demi-gods! I guess they are just having fun messing with her or something. Anyway, King entry was pretty cool. He's jsut giving no fuck about Ban. And Ban taking that sword in the throat... It made cringe, remembering Game of Throne/ASOIAF.

Exactly she's over 700 so it's all good :). Plus like with Diane it's all about differing types of beings. Be it giant, human, etc.

I tend to agree that face is always pretty darn creepy and it was again here. I'm kind of glad that someone has shown up that can put pressure onto the Sins. A strong edge may simply be having knowledge of their abilities and how to counter them.

Immortality or not...Ban taking those hits can be uncomfortable to watch. Sword through the throat is going to be unpleasant even if you heal fast after.

So we got some closure on Ban's 'sin', that's a sad flashback.

I'm still impressed by the gore in this series, say what you want, but i like to see blood when it's supposed to be blood.

Wow, that holy knight can take on 3 sins at the same time?! So is she stronger than Gilthunder? Also the way she just killed herself was fucked up and kinda funny tbh, hoping she doesn't get fodderized.

Nice, so there IS magic in this, was kinda wondering why things where exploding out of nowhere like that lol, expecting more details as the anime progresses.

That ending though...this gets me hyped up every week, Soundtrack is remarkable, animation is great, and i have really high expectations for this series.

Another great episode of Taizai, definitely one of my favorites this season

Great episode. It was fun seeing that holy knight kick their butts and they still don't seem that serious.. Can't wait for next episode.

Am I the only one who is annoyed every time Elizabeth starts acting tough. I mean she was just running away from the fight, and when she saw King, she started acting like she was about to go fight with that spear she can't even move. If she had some type of fighting skill I would understand, but obviously she will just get in the way.

Really showed the character of both of them in that moment. Ban and Elaine both wanting the other to drink the water and survive. It's just that Elaine was able to struggle enough to make the last decision about it.

Has to be some whiplash for King. Was so certain that Ban was responsible for the death of his sister and the destruction of the forest. Now not only is that revealed to not be the case, but he also finds out his sister has fallen for this guy XD.

The soundtrack is really amazing, really added to the feels ;_;

Elaine and Ban were so cute together, Ban wanting to make Elaine his and Elaine blushing from that.

Elaine getting fatally injured when trying to warn Ban. It was really quite the scene for her to pretend to drink it then gave it to Ban...

It was quite touching when Ban still said that he will make Elaine his T.T

Guila being that strong and is going against that many of the sins! Can't wait till the sins actually try. Loved how King used that way to attack Guila xD

Feels episode ;_; Really close to crying but can't because my eyes are too dry from this dry weather. Ban is an interesting character and I like how he doesn't care to give any explanations, maybe because he does feel responsible for Elaine's death on some level. Although it's frustrating, can't really blame King for wanting to kill Ban because he doesn't know the truth. Well I don't think think anyone else does anyways. A touching and sad episode.

Pretty well don episode, though it keeps alternating between the plot and the subplot. It kinda makes it a build-up episode with all dem emotions of Elaine and tragic backstory. Makes you sympathize with Ban a lot more as well as King.

Guila seems so badass and I swear when she opens her eyes her ability'll like double or something. love the character!

4/5. It was a good episode, just the alternation between kinda put me off. Of course I'm hoping for an epic fight next episode!

Ban and Meliodas best characters so far. Guila is OP.

Does Guila remain dead for the entire series when they get out of the capital of dead?
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.
