Holy shit, the new and improved Jericho is awesome...

A bit on the evil side but that's okay. Elizabeth grew back although I have to say that she is in a bit of a predicament. Pretty brutal episode. Hawk was brave but it looks like someone else takes the collateral damage. Those Holy Knights show almost no mercy D:

In order to not be involved in sudden attack, they revealed that they are Nanatsu no Taizai and let others evacuate. Inoue-san's character's new power has ability to block immortality? Wow, FukuJun's character is stronger than KajiKaji's character and Suzuki-san's character, who were defeated.

KajiKaji's character got caught, though, by using of a soldier who is very close to the princess (sister?). Everyone, even that soldier very close to princess got defeated, but KajiKaji's character caught out in monster's form?

Special show on January 4, 2015. Next ep. with new OP and ED on January 11, 2015.

Was a bit disappointed about the animation and overall pacing of this episode. They went through 5 chapters the first 6 minutes (skipping important conversations and messing up animation and characterization).

Could handle it last episode (due to it being mostly senseless fighting), but this time it ticked me off ALOT

Another episode with skipped/rushed dialogue, A-1 proving AGAIN that they can't adapt good Manga right. The animation/music overall wasn't bad, but was it just me or was the scene of Elizabeth screaming "Meliodas" @22:03 badly synced? her mouth was closed and she was still screaming. If so someone needs to fire/replace these animators. Anime only watchers might enjoy it but for Manga readers it's hell to see this happen

So... where's Diane and her hammer? She should have her original height by now, maybe she's stuck in that gorge.

Poor Elizabeth, as soon as she see back her sister, she dies. I'm beginning to think that Elizabeth is a walking badluck charm.

Those evil knights really are truly evil. Goddamnit, don't they have no shame? Jericho really have lost it. Somehow, I just knew Ban wouldn't remember who she was xD

We're somehow supposed to give a damn about spectator Veronica's death when they skipped her mini introduction arc.
And what's worst is that it seems they're doing the same with Gowther, one of the NNT.
Also is it me or is Griamor's voice actor really terrible this episode?

I think she's referring to when he stole her armor in episode 5, thus getting a look at her feminine figure and exposing it to the other soldiers. Funny, it didn't occur to me at the time that she had actually been pretending to be a male, I just thought that she was using the masculine pronoun to appear tougher.

7 chapters :O?? Why so rushed D: But still pretty good tbh...after lowering my standards a bit.

So they decided to rearrange some of Elizabeth meeting Veronica's dialogue about Mel being a "Bakemono?" (Shouldn't it be Demon?) til this ep? And the necklace was integrated pretty well too I guess.

I don't get why they didn't let Diane's size grow back while she was destroying Meliodas. More Fanservice so they should've used the chance right away XD Oh well, it's pretty much the same either way. Her fight with Mel was pretty damn awesome but unfortunately not as intense as the manga. They made us feel how OP they are in the manga by showing the audience all saying they're scared and Hawk wondering if he can still remain alive after this, also Hauser thinking she really was going easy on him after seeing this XD Lol'd at her "I didn't do it" when Hauser told her she's a traitor XD So cute :3

Loved the scene when the Sins just sensed enemies incoming and Mel immediately played the big baddy. He fits as a bad guy XD And so does Ban when he took Veronica hostage. Looked BA in that scene :3

Jericho sure got stronger and quite more feminine :3 Ban got pretty owned there if u can say. Him and Mel just keep getting owned don't they XD King being friggin BA destroying both of them so easily was EPIC! His chill fighting style is really awesome to watch ^^ Slapping bitches left and right with his arrows with that chillax face XD Looking forward to his fight with Helbram.

RIP Veronica...I guess :P And Dat Mel demonic release was awesome. Too bad they didn't end the ep with


I'm still enjoying this a lot and I'm sure anime only viewers are too. It's a shame they're rushing it this much though as a manga reader. What's the F***n rush T^T

Another rushed episode with skipped dialog, and lame fight scenes when compared to the manga. Seriously, the King ownage scene was much better in the manga, mostly every fight is. I mean, you have Sawano doing the OST, and you can't even give us some actual fights, A1? And they handled Veronica terribly. They skipped her mini introduction arc and now, in this episode she was pretty much introduced and killed off right away. Now that's some Akame ga Kill level shittery. In the manga, she had much better characterization and you could tell that she actually gave a shit about Ellie. I was really heart broken, but I felt nothing in the anime. A1 ruins a character, they might ruin Gowther next. Why would A1 even pick up this if they didn't give a shit? If this was put in the hands of Madhouse, they would've actually did this great manga some justice. Anime only watchers might love this, but as a manga reader. I think it sucks. Sorry, rant over

Eh, I dunno...as a manga reader this was certainly rushed I agree, but I still found it very enjoyable. Ideally would I prefer it not rushed? Sure, but this was still pretty damn great. After reading week after week about how all the anime I've watched this season without being familiar with the source material have been ruined by being rushed whether it be Grisaia, Vanadis, or what feels like several other series at last I can claim to know why everyone is so upset with this one. Still I'd say it's fine. :D

Wow. Lots of things happened and that was a lot of chapters covered for sure. :o With this pacing, does this mean the anime would still completely cover the

Hawk got roasted like ham but at least he's still fine. :'D

Hmmm, as an anime-only viewer, I enjoyed this episode a ton. Seems like a lot of content was crammed into this one episode though. King's moment of dominance was instantly stopped by Helbram.

Frankly speaking, it was hard to really empathize with Veronica when she died since she sort of just showed up and hardly had any backstory besides caring dearly about Elizabeth.

Dat Meliodas cliffhanger tho... I'm expecting Diane to join the fray as well.

Jericho and the other girl come back all powered up.

Jericho embraced her feminine side and kicked Ban's ass.
Melioda's was beat up by the other girl too.

Poor Hawk being roasted.

Veronica died trying to protect Elizabeth.
Meliodas releasing his hidden demonic power.

Can't wait for the next ep.

They skipped an arc and are now trying to put a truncated version of it inside of the current one. It doesn't fit that well.

I wouldn't really call it an arc. It was just a couple of chaps. But yeah skipping that mini arc did have a negative effect making Veronica's death meh

Lol, Diane is so Pouting...looks hilarious..serious fight but Diane is pissed off that it is funny!
=) Meliodas...guys...T.T acting like bad Guys to save the city and it' people...so called 7 Deadly Sin's are the most chivalrous and true Knights...more than so called Holy knights!

Jericho...is quite Sadist ain't she? lol...almost sounded like she was going to marry Ban! XD

Tough King Harlequin shows us once again why he is Bad Ass...competently kicking Guila's And Jericho's asses for a while...would have won if not for his Old Friend.

Tough damn that New Generation is damn strong. LOL!!! WHAT A WAY VERONICA AND ELIZABETH MEET!! MISUNDERSTANDING AT it's Finest!!! XD

Hendricksen eyes already looks like one of the Monster...what he competently is utter and Manipulative monster...and his new Generation is same....heartless monsters...or is that Demon blood that makes them so?

And Que The Pissed of Sins after what they did to Eli and her Sisters.... let the slaughter begin

I can definitely feel that the pacing for this episode is rushed even for a non-manga reader. Nanatsu no Taizai is one of my most anticipated show weekly and I will be sure to pick up the manga along-side with Tokyo Ghoul, Zetman and those that the studio has failed to adapt properly in the new future.

Yello, just a quick question, I wanna start reading the manga now because I saw the episode and realized that it was a bit tad rushed, especially Veronica's death which came outta nowhere. I wanna know a good chapter to start on that's not too early. I wanna start probably before the meliodas and ban fight in the town and not too early or too far from that point. Thanks

Wow. That escalated quickly. Those were some epic battles all around and the drama with Elizabeth and Veronica was the icing on the cake. That was a solid death right there for Nee-sama but it looks like it awakened Meliodas 2.0. He's about to go ape shit.

It was a good episode. Im sure theyll reveal another member of the team. (Previously shown for like a minute) and princess veronica (currently dead) will be brought back alive (maybe) by the new member. And theyll be indebt to them (again) and everyone will be happy. Just my thought
