THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Ooh, this new OP song looks good in terms of chereography but I like the previous OP song in terms of the lyrics and quality.

As expected, Elaine isn't herself this episode as she unleashes her rage on Ban. It's actually a side effect of being bought back by Melascula's power. I noticed the anime protrayed Elaine as being even more broken but Ban stops her in time. Kinda disappointed by Ban's reaction to the Commandments though. In the manga, he looked fucking pissed after they showed themselves but the moment in the anime just passed by like in a flash.

The fight is alright. I did enjoy seeing Ban beating a bit out of Galand. Wish they anime extended it as Ban is my favorite character in the show but whatever. The important part is how Ban got saved by Zhivago. Ban's "death" fakeout is almost amusing. Now it makes a lot more sense why they decided to focus so much background story on Ban in recent episodes.

One thing that impressed me about this episode is how Ban is able to take down Galand and even had an advantage over him at one point. RIP Zhivago, you were a good man.

I wish they didn't give screen time to Fraudrin this episode...oh well.

The little fairiy girl attacking Suzuki-san's character and the girl travelling with him waking her.

The two enemies appearing once the little fairy girl fell unconscious from no regrets left. Wow, he's winning the enemy. Thought the female one was able to get the soul out. Oh, it was his god father's soul who was eaten.

Those two new characters appearing in front of one of the enemies and he got attracted by the girl's kisses. lol @ another guy who were attracted by her.

New OP & ED were nice, but not my favorite.

It seems like the final member of 7 sins will officially appear (even though he did appear a bit last ep.) and act next?

That Zhivago sacrifice q_q, Ban was really close to be done for despite being immortal.

Jericho becoming even more bae as the episodes pass, having her around is awesome.

Great epsiode!

New Op and ED were great too, but certainly not the best. Visuals for this Op is freakin’ lit though. Can’t wait to see Escanor in action.

Shockingly, Jericho reveals all her personal feelings about Ban to Elaine but, as expected, Ban was too busy worrying about Jericho to really spare a moment for Jericho. Lol, it was hilarious but that just goes to show how much he loves Elaine. Ban fighting the two Commandments was engaging to some extent but a little more, like the manga, would’ve been much better. I’m fine with it nonetheless, since we got to see Ban knock down Galand repeatedly.
Goodbye Zhivago! Dreyfus was hilarious in the end there though.

Can’t wait to see Escanor in action from next week onwards. Here begins the Escanor Arc(or so I’d like to make it)!

Sadly Ban fight felt a bit rushed which was disappointing.

Dreyfus/Fraudrin got destroyed quickly.

This was a sweet moment.

That Zhivago just came out nowhere.

Ban and Elaine deserved a better reunion.
The episode was splited in two distincts events in two distincts place, probablye at te same time, but couldn't they make it two differents epsiodes then?

Holy shit, the pace was ludicrous on this episode, so many events in so little time... Zhivago appeared out of nowhere, and here I thought that Ban would just develop another soul (if that's even possible)

What the fuck with Dreyfus getting rekt? lol that was so out of place.

The previous opening's song was better, but the visuals of this one are honestly amazing. If only the rest of the fights would be like that...
Also, in the opening,


Now RIP for real, Zhivago. They don't had enough with killing your son, but now they kill you for real. You deserved better ;_; I admit that, looking the scene animated, it looks like a big Deus ex Machina, lmao.

I loved the fight between Jericho and Elaine, it was very funny. Melascula still the best, though.


I still can't believe one of the feared and powerful 10 Commandments got his ass kicked in that stupid way. Deldry is a truly terrible adversary, lol. It was even funnier due Konishi's voice acting. Even more since the scene came out of nowhere after all the drama with Ban, Elaine and Jericho.

Oh, boy, next episode is going to make us all grow an epic mustache.

A smile need to be protect. And how the hell did Fraudrin get his ass kicked that easily.Who are these Pleiades? When the 10 commandment first appear, Galland is so OP even not at full strength and now suddenly they become a joke.Are the Pleiades stronger than 7 Deadly Sins? And Ban did a good job fighting Galand and Melascula.

I liked the first season. Really. But this new season just keeps going downhill every single episode!
In the first minutes of this episode I thought that was going to change but it didn't. Just keeps going down. And down. And down...
I hope this season shifts when the last sin is introduce because there's a lot of hype surrounding him.

Not gonna lie. I feel somewhat disappointed. I believe there were some scenes that should've been extended. and should've adapted more scenes. Such as Ban's Fight and the conversation with Mellascula. Felt too short, but if it had to fit with the number of episodes to show then I guess it is inevitable.

Pretty good episode.

Some of the Ban x Elaine moments were really nice.

Loved the part where Ban totally wrecked Galland.

That Zhivago sacrifice. T.T
To be honest that sacrifice did feel a little contrived but okay. xD

The Fraudrin stuff felt totally out of place and I just don't see how he got totally beat up like that. Were the people he was facing really that strong?

Prefered the first OP to this one. Still a nice OP though!

Jericho's confession of her love for Ban.. Aww man. Poor girl even knows he won't look at her whilst theres a chance of him saving Elaine!

Zhivago saving Ban though.. So touching!

Deyfus looks like he bit off more than he can chew... Quite literally. :p Charmed and harmless in moments.

And if it wasn't already obvious,Jericho is best girl.

This new OP has great visuals, but song-wise, I preferred the first OP.

As for the scene at the end with Dreyfus, I feel like that should have been in the beginning of the episode, as it felt out place after all that happened before it. Plus, in the manga, that part happened before all the Zhivago stuff, so the chronology there was just weird in general.

I liked seeing Ban go up against Galan and Melascula, but as others have said, the save by Zhivago felt way too convenient.

Oh well, let's just get hype for the next episode, real greatness is about to begin!

Jericho X Ban ftw... They just seem so much better together.
I was pretty confused how Zhivago managed to switch with Ban even though he's already dead, did his regrets leave his soul floating about; ehh, let's just go with it.

(Elaine needs to die again)

The anime never gives Ban enough credit, he's my favourite deuteragonist from all the anime I've watched -heck, I find his scenes way better than meliodas so it was a pity to see that he ao has some sort of limit to his power. Hopefully they get rid of that 'cause he can easily take one or two of the commandments.

So we've had the commandments, the sins, does that mean we're gonna get the seven virtues (something like that)
Who are these people of deldrey, they seem kinda cool... The seven virtues 👀, I doubt it
I'm lookin' forward to next week

P.S.
I liked the new OP animation. Covered some nice fight scenes, especially Meliodas's shadow clone jutsu

New OP and ED.I didn't like the music but the visuals were nice.
More Elaine and Ban moments.With Jericho help she returned to normal, but unfortunately she will die soon.
Ban vs Galand was decent, I expected more and longer.Never thought be a fair match at some point.Zhivago redeemed himself switch souls with Ban's. Rip you were a great dad
Fraudin meets himself with some trouble.The girl has some terrifying power.The scene overall wasn't that big of a deal.
Can't wait for the next episode, Lord of the Sun,Escanor is coming!

Not a very good episode for the 10 commandments, Galan could've been defeated there if it weren't for Merascylla hard countering Ban's immortality, the Pleiades vs Fraudrin stuff looked worse than it did in the manga, especially with that low quality animation.
The hype cannot be contained for the next episode, if there was a time when to pour the budget, it would be next episode and one other moment later on in this season as well. A1 better fucking deliver.

yeah i have to agree with you, they butchered the entire fight between ban and galland, but the animation was actually quite nice during the fight scenes, it was just that they omitted great part of the fight and also failed in conveying the impact of certain blows. its sad

Elaine was being a bitch, but she snapped out of it, once Jericho yelled at her.

Nice fight between Ban and the 2 commandments. Galland is honestly the weakest commandment so far. Ban had a ton of fun beating him up, though, even if it was due to his snatch ability. Having Zhivago offer his soul as a decoy was basically just plot armor, but it's honestly, pretty realistic too because of how close they were to each other and their father son relationship.

The part with Drefyus was kind of random, but it'll be finished next week, hopefully, since it ended abruptly.

This shows been feeling like it's kind of just doing whatever without any set of rules. I mean that save by Zhivago was just completely out of no where.

The bit with Drefyus was too silly, not in a good way.

OP was okay, the first line of the lyrics is pretty awful. Wished the fight scenes in the TV series were as quick pace as that.

Decent episode again, but it also felt very quick and I don't really like these Pleiades people at the moment. Ban's fight with Galland should have been longer, but it was still good as it was; the convenient save by Zhivago was kind of annoying, but this is shounen so that's to be expected really.

New OP is not as good as I hoped for after the first one from Flow.

Elaine sure wasn't feeling like herself and Jericho of all people had to bring Elaine back to her senses.

Ban proves me again why I love him so much as a character. He's a force to be reckon with when he uses Snatch.

But damn, Zhivago sacrificied his own soul to save Ban, the real hero this episode!

Was hoping to see Escanor this episode but we'll see him in action next week. Escanor HYPE!
