I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Can't wait to see what this original story is going to be. :) |
| well..I kinda thought A-1 will replace FT 2014 by a long runnig adaption of NnT..:/ I will watch it thou.. |
| Kind of disappointed that it isn't a direct sequel, but maybe they're waiting for the manga to make more progress. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| I see I see, that makes a hella of a lot more sense now We still need that Magi season tho, A-1.. |
 |
| Holy shit! I called it! Atleast got the part right that it wouldn't be a sequel. Lol http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1482680 |

| NOOO WHY !!!! T___T |
| Ahhhhh for fucks sake!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So dissapointed T^T |
| Disappointing news. I was looking forward to this. |
 |
| No way I was so looking forward to this thought it would be a season 2 ah well that sucks I will still watch it though |
xaos12 said: Lmao here everyone thought that there will be a 2nd season. xD Except me. XD but on a serious note, nanatsu no taizai will probably gets its sequel in 2017. |
| wait what "mini"??? the fuck REALLY? |
| welp LOL there's always the chance that they will announce s2 when this mini story ends since there will probably be enough content by late 2016 or early 2017. |
| So sad :( Man 2016 is still looking amazing but damn I wished for another adaption of the manga. Hopefully in 2017. |
 |
malki said: But this doesn't even have enough material for 2 cours, does it?well..I kinda thought A-1 will replace FT 2014 by a long runnig adaption of NnT..:/ I will watch it thou.. I bet we'll still get S2 eventually later. |
 |
| I'm glad that it's not a second season. Not because the series is bad, but because that will give A1 Pictures more time to adapt properly the manga unlike the rush of the first season. |
 |
| Better than noting From what I heard the 1st season adapted around 100 chapters. Maybe they will wait for another 100 chapter before making 2nd season |
| Quite disappointing but oh well : / |
| Damn that sucks...But hey, at least it's better than nothing :/ |
 |
| Expected an original story due to the weird alternate ending they gave the first season. Not sure what to expect since it's an original story so I'll go in with low expectations. Also, I completely skimmed over the "4 episodes" part. What the heck lol |
    |
| Just think of this as a low budget Nanatsu no Taizai movie, and like all other shounen movies it has nothing to do with the manga. It makes sense to do this, especially if Arslan only needs 8 episodes to finish off the current arc. It keeps Nanatsu no Taizai in anime viewers mindspace, will give a small boost to manga sales and give enough space the manga to get enough material for season 2. Which could air after Iron Blood Orphans 2 in Spring 2017.... if it did that would be over 110 chapters before it even aired.... |

| At least we got 4 episodes. There's not enough to adapt another 2 cour yet anyways. |
 |
NotThisShitAgain said: Magi season 3 maybeSo it's just 4 special episodes, more likely OVA I think. With these announcement, still curious what A1 project in FALL season, hhmm maybe Granblue Fantasy and Eromanga Sensei. |
| Sup... |
| I'm kinda disappointed at how this is not a full second season... but since I love Nanatsu no Taizai I might watch eventually. |
| Is this a joke? It wasn't April Fools yet. Damn it A1 Pictures! EDIT: Why Wikipedia got 2 seasons of Nanatsu no Taizai this 2016? Could be the 2 Season would air in Fall 2016? |
| Haters always gonna hate. |
| There goes the hope for the 10 commandment arc...for now! |
 |
| Cool, I guess. No, no really. |

And it's not just Wiki but also ANN, so read the link below.
