I'm guessing the manga is way better than the anime even though I haven't read it. I'm just going by what most of people/my friends say.

No it's just that what this season adapts is the worst part of the 3 parts of the story.

Nah, the manga actually gets quite tedious down the line, it's like the author has no idea what they're doing.

It's because there's no DUB! Usually dubbed series are more popular and the English voice actors in 7 Deadly Sins are better in my opinion

I'd say you have it the other way around.

Popular anime get dubs, not the other way around.

Seven deadly sins is not that unique . I’m a fan of both series but this isn’t that unique . A lot of the arcs are the same .

I can think of three reasons:

The first season ruined the set up to S2 by diverging from the manga. S2 had to waste time fixing the shitty mistakes the first season and the filler made. The filler and wait turned a lot of people off.

Second problem is that the current arc is the longest in the series. So far everything that has aired this season (episode 12 as of now) has just been set up. We got some important characterization but nothing major has happened. The commandments just barely moved from the spot they where for 12 episodes. The set up is all done and the meat of the story will finally start rolling. This is perfectly fine because all this set up and characterization is badly needed for what's about to go down. The problem is shonen kiddies who are more used to crap like Naruto or MHA can't be bothered to wait for actual characterization, or set up, and just want action. Those of us who read the manga know that now that the set up is done shit's about to go down. At the pace the anime is going it looks very likely that it's going to end in THAT scene. S2 is set to end in a bang which will start the hype train for S3.

Third problem is simply people have bad taste in Chinese cartoons and would rather watch garbage like MHA and Boruto then read the much superior NnT manga from the beginning. It helps with the hype from the anime.

I still enjoy the hell out of it and watch it every single week since its premiere in January.

Another issue was at the very beginning, subbed versions were delayed getting out (also happened with Saiki Kusuo S2).

Crazy that quality shows have trouble getting fansubs or picked up, yet we have literal garbage that gets insta-simul-subbed/dubbed worldwide.

The first season of the anime is better, the manga is a borefest!!!!! The first episode of the 2nd season was boring as fuck, so I'm officially done with this series.

It didn't seem like it was advertised properly compared to when the first season first aired coz my boyfriend and I literally just found out it was airing since January and already has 12 episodes out so far... When we found out, we checked Netflix and S2 isn't even on there...

Also, I wish people wouldn't compare though coz both BNHA and NnT have their own charm. If you don't enjoy this one but enjoy the other, it's easy to stop watching.

I’m a fan of the show but if I’m gonna keep it real then this season so far has been boring . Not alot of people are talking about this season or care right now . Black clover , Darling in the franxx , MHA and Tokyo ghoul have more people watching / reacting to than SDS . It’s not a bad season at all it’s honestly good but it’s just not on the level of the other shows in terms of people watching it and hype and to have Black clover ahead of you says alot

I don't read manga. But this season feels slower and not rushed like 1st season.

I personally like 1st season more. If I remember correctly, the 1st 12 episodes in season 1 had more fights than this. So being rushed might not be bad thing for anime only watchers.

They destroyed the plot in the second cour of the first anime season. The way the first season was resolved was lame and uninteresting, same as the transition to the new arc. Also, power levels.
Also, excess of melodrama every episode

As someone said before, I feel the author has no idea of where she is heading, or what she wants to do with the story. To this point, it's completely unbalanced.

Uh, s1 is one of the most popular anime on mal, and in Japan was one of the only anime ever to compete with One Piece week-to-week as far as TV ratings go. AKA it was insanely popular, not sure how popular this season is in Japan, but I'm assuming it's only on mal where the hype has died.

Well, meliodas is just another perverted and ridiculously overpowered MC and elizabeth is a weak and useless female lead common in shounens and neither of them get character development. The villains have shitty motives, the plot is uninteresting and because many of the characters are overpowered, the battles are predictacle. Top it with an uninteresting plot and a setting used over and over again in anime, you get NnT. The art is also ugly and the story becomes worse overtime.

I know you don't watch BNHA because you'd know the main character isn't wimp at all. You'd also know that he has never powered up during a fight. The main character in BNHA gets stronger through hard work and perseverance. The MC in the Seven Deadly Sins gets stronger by asking some people he somehow gave his power to a while ago for it back. It doesn't get any lamer than that. He has never gotten stronger by training throughout the shows runtime.

Maybe because the long wait time between seasons caused the hyped to kinda, waste away? Also, with the rise of series' like MHA, it's pretty obvious as to why this show lost it's popularity. The new generation of shounen fans want something a little more complex, even from a shounen, something which MHA and Youkoso no Neverland offer... So...

^This also explains why the popularity of the manga has decreased(yeah, let's be honest, that astronomical drop in it's yearly sales isn't because of the rise in digital sales.)
