Oh boy, that Estarossa background story. They even added the dog like from the manga. We also got him fighting against the archangels again but in his second form.

Animation quality is still mediocre but hey, at least they are faithful for the battle. And....that's it. It's over this season. Thank goodness.

That majin also liked Goddess when he was young. Goddess not remembering the memory w. him, though.

He seems to have the memory of KajiKaji's character (from the past), too, with those souls he absorbed even he knows the secret place. Then he changed back to himself.

The powers getting repelled and he's berserking, w. his feelings towards goddess and his own brother.

She agreed to go with him and cured everyone else.

That child-liiking angel showed female form. She borrowed her as well as sick boy bodies.

FukuJun's character, angels, and the female majin flying to save goddess.

Some members to the castle.

KajiKaji's character in the space w. huge figure (his father?)... He seems to still be himself (not under his majin personality). He is still thinking about the one he loves.

Announcement video to 4th season aired.

The last few episodes weren't that bad including this one but still below average.

One of the worst anime adaptation to date. They messed up almost everything. Glad this is finally over. Also why tf they are making a new season ffs.

That's it. And now that it's over i'll say: What the flying fuck. This season doesn't exist. MAL could even delete it from the database if possible.

See, i know that the animation was absolute garbage. But i had a huge problem with the story since the 2nd season. The 2nd season was still a good show, BUT THIS.. It was... so ridiculous and nonsensical imo, i didn't even know what i was watching anymore.

1st season: 8/10, 2nd: 7/10, 3rd: 3/10. 4th one? Who cares, the hype is dead, and deen will continue to stain this series even further.

Certainly not the worst episode of the season but that really isn't saying much, I'm afraid.

About time for Estarossa's backstory and it is quite tragic indeed. Elizabeth and Meliodas both "betraying" him leading to the split-personality and identity mess was handled fairly well, to my pleasant surprise. But god, those terrible battle sequences...

Anyway, looks like things have been set up for the next season. Hopefully, we'll get to see more of Ban's endeavors in Hell. He must be having a horrid time, lol. Kind of reminded me of his first appearance with the long beard.

Meliodas, meanwhile, is starting to put his plan into action now too. What even took him so long to get started? Quite the teaser after the post-credit scene too.

But sadly, I just can't feel myself engrossed enough to care much. It's been a poor season across all departments (except for the Sound Department) imo. Even the VA felt a little choppy at times, you won't see me saying that often.

Seasons 1 and 2 were really fun to keep up with but, by the latter half of Season 2, we were getting indications that the story is slowly falling apart. And that, it certainly was. Moreover, the under-par animation quality and questionable directing just made things even worse. I can only pray that Season 4 (or Season 5, however you will) will be better than this...

Sorry, but no more than a 3/10 from me. For those interested, the score of this on Bilibili is a mere 4.6/10. I've seen worse but I can assure you not many.

I still managed to enjoy this season despite the decline in quality(production and storywise)

Dunno if I will be able to say the same about the next season, because we're going reach points where things have gotten shit for real in the manga.

Ban long hair is so sexy!! Though he should shave his beard. But I don't root for him because he's not a virgin.

Howzer is very shining in this episode! He helps attacking a demon that has much more power than him, very brave. And he control an army that is very loyal to him. Plus he's a virgin!

Can't wait for the final season. I also want the story to continue even after manga end!

Its finally over,i'm so happy.

There were some good things about this season,(Gowther's backstory,Diane and King's arc conclusion,the 3000 year backstory)

But the rest was a mixed bag with some average to bad content,the power level system was even more broken than in s2,the deadly sins all felt weak and useless,i absolutely hated what Meliodas became,all that mystery for this really? and an average conlusion teasing tons of shit i don't really care about

kay now for the animation i'm gonna get a lot of shit but i found it decent thinking about the circumstences,a small studio was given a big license,they had tight schedule to do it and TWO seasons (so 48 episodes),yes some parts looks awful,yes the censor was bad,yes there was cgi but judging objectively it was just below average,most of the scenes looked clean there were almost no cgi(i'm glad cause the cgi they use is awful),the characters were nicely drawed and the landscape too,some scenes were even better than average (i loved that tornado and ocean attack scene from episode 23,looked awesome),overall i'm probably the only one that's going to say this but grats to Studio Jack for making something that looks almost decent with all the pile of garbage they had to handle

Overall i'll absolutely never come back to Nanatsu no Taisai and its not because of the animation.

Damn this episode in the looks department was absolutely horrendous, budget must of been running on fumes.

All in all this season compared the the previous and first series has fallen off a cliff, kinda sucks for Studio Jack being the fall guy in this regard.

Thank god that's finally over, congrats to those of us that made it through 6 months of this lol.

Unfortunately, the rest of the story that's left to be adapted is just.....a total dumpster fire, so even if everything that was bad in this season is improved for the next, it won't be able to make up for how terrible the story will be.

Estarossa's backstory...it's hard to think that his transformation has been misaligned by the old Meliodas, the former leader of the Ten Commandments. And the rest is history.

But yet, Elizabeth has no recollection of her memories with him, which irritates him to surpass Meliodas in power and strength as his acknowledgement from her, the love he so dearly missed that the younger brother stole away.

In the battle for love, Estarossa has gone insane, and Elizabeth gave in to Estarossa's lost soul, to save what was lost. With that, the four Archangels and the Seven Deadly Sins attempt to save Elizabeth, with the debt-owing Derieri in stead.

What happens after that...is left to Season 4 in October. Not sure whether I'll be able to finish this, but since the years of adaptation in finishing the manga in full, not expecting much since animation is getting worse, but just have to resent myself to finish both the manga and anime.

Maybe it was just the trauma of the Escanor x Meliodas fight, but the animation seemed a lot better after ep 13. Before that they were drawing distorted faces in fucking static frames, but in the last 11 eps things were more stable. At least it was watchable. It's almost as if Studio Deen got afraid of loosing clients for letting their biggest anime come out a complete dumpster fire and decided to start animating themselves instead of paying that small studio they contracted to do it. There's only so much Deen can do anyway, so it's not like it was good in the end. Besides, the damage was done to the first half, that contained just the biggest dramatic reveal and the most hyped fight of the series. So yeah, 4/10 being nice, even tho I love Nanatsu, it was always a 6-7 show even in its best days. I had given up on the anime after ep 13, but when they announced season 4 (shocking, btw) I decided to check out the rest of it and now I have hope that it will be at least watchable.

Well to be fair most Anime shows (especially the shounen ones) tend to highlight the romance aspect toward the final episodes while the shows themselves do not possess romance as a main category/focus.

Sure; the animation quality improved mildly over these last 3 episodes but it is still mediocre at best. The narrative over this season was a complete mess and even though I haven't read the manga, it definitely feels like crucial plot points were either quickly thrown in or outright omitted from the story. It makes no sense to me why Estorossa's backstory needed to be hastily thrown into the final two episodes of the season when there was more than enough room to build the hype for this final battle across the latter half of the season.
Maybe I just didn't pick up on it soon enough but I really didn't get any sense of split personality from Estorossa until 3 episodes ago and DEFINITELY didn't get any sense of love triangle between himself, Elizabeth and Meliodas until this final episode. This seems like a drastically important bit of information for Estorossa's character development and it was not mentioned at all until the last episode of this god awful season.

Well, I was really dissapointed with the way Estarossa was visually depiced in these last few episodes, but psychologically they did a pretty good job.

Overall.. well not the best adaptation to say the least. It's a shame, because this season had a lot of potential.

Guess we'll see how they handle the next season, which - imo - will be the hardest season to adapt.

We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths.

Compared to the previous seasons this one was more action wise and focused on the main mc's.

It was nice to see some backstory and further character development.

I personally did not mind the common faults most people are complaining about and also liked the general flow of this season, that a fourth season is already confirmed is quite good at this point if you aks me, mainly because this last episode or rather day this season was pretty much just a whole ride of buildup towards the conclusion.

I'm not familiar with the source so I personally lack the knowledge of knowing of this adaptation was good or bad compared to the source. But I can say that of a pretty general standpoint I did quite like this season in general and I am looking forwards to the next one as well!

Deen really choose to animate the worst of the seasons anyways, since the plot in the manga at this point was a shit. But the fact that they rreuined it more with the animation is a plus to give this shit a 1/10. Nice job

Let's not forget that they skipped a lot of the manga content.

I had big expectation for this series but it turned out sux. Hopefully the next season will be better

Estarossa's VA did a great job. Oh hey Ban is finally relevant again.

Overall the story this season is as good, though the direction it took was questionable. However the animation just straight up sucked throughout.

-1 for bad animation and pacing
-1 for ruining Meliodas v Escanor fight

so overall 5/10
