Thank you MAL commentators, would have skipped this series if not for your comments.

Now THAT is how you do an OP scene at the start of a series.


Yay, you're onboard here too. I look forward to seeing what you think going forward.

4/5

Nice really nice, however today I'll be a little stingy with the votes.
Intuition has rewarded me, if in the first episode there was the ignition of the engines, in this second episode the plot begins the takeoff! * _ *
Narration by the excellent flavor fantasy with medieval declinations.
The drawings are well made and animated.
The OST as the opening and ending are cute.
I also expect soon a great beautiful episode.

Oh god. This episode totally reminded me of why I love this series!

Gilthunder was friggin badass with his Emo-boy act. That Spear Throw was epic!
Then Meliodas with that Spear Throw-Back! Hahahahaha! Can you imagine what would have happened if Meliodas messed up his aim and the spear ended up further South by accident? XDDDDD

Some people may not like the animation because it's not sharp lines and more roundy, old-school stuff, ala DBZ and Dr. Slump, but imho this works well with this story, considering it's Middle Ages setting.

It definitely deserves it's rating! Diane up next! Lets go find our Nakamaaa! XD

It's really a shame (and quite a surprise too) that this show isn't being streamed yet. It certainly is one of the better ones this season.

Crunchyroll didn't get it. Netflix did, and they're not really in a hurry to stream it.

The OP-ness level in this series is over 9000000000000!!

The spear throwing scenes were way OP I'd be surprised if the battle between Meliodas doesn't destroy one country each time. Considering there are many holy knights they might as well destroy the planet right then and there.

Loved it :D Meliodas seems to have a little something to his character too, Elizabeth is the classic sheltered child going out into a big adventure so she's gonna develop by default (hopefully). Loving the OST and the animation seems pretty fantastic. The giant pig transport reminds me slightly of howls moving castle lol. The chorus in the ED is so fucking catchy.

lmao, yea.

I came across SDS and it is said to fill the void left by naruto and bleach. The first episode instantly hooks me. Meliodas is such an awesome character. I didnt know that there are only 2 eps out so after the second i flipped out. I havent watched an anime as it was being release hhhm since death note! (I hate the anticipation lol) I'm excited to see what else is in store for this anime 2 eps in and im hooked! Looks so much more promising than fairy tale and others i have seen!!

I hope there's a reason Meliodas looks older in the poster, like he can turn into his older self in some point or something like that.
This is turning out to be pretty good, the comedy, characters and action is well balanced.

It was explained indirectly in the first episode why they are older in the posters.
We know that they looked the same as they were 10 years ago because of something we don't know yet.
So the one who made the posters want to stimulate how will they look 10 years later...

Nice uniform <3 Seriously go die Mel, I hate him now. Elizabeth needs to hit him already. At least the stone hit him right in the face.

Idk I still find this show clumsy and akward here and there.

This episode was pretty hardcore in my opinion with Meliodas and Gil showing off their powers and revealing their magic to the viewers. Love how the plot develops now to find the other Sins and gather power for another coup d'etat.

Thoughts?
Loving the new outfit Elizabeth has.
Meliodas is just like Aladdin (Magi reference) ~so pervy~
I THOUGHT THE BIG GREEN PIG WAS THE PINK ONE. DAMNNN

5/5. The plot and characters develop nicely with a very nice pace. There were some occasional clichés, but I like em still~

"Ok we're going there."

I'm loving this series so far. I'm getting the impression the member of the "Seven Deadly Sins" were somehow framed from some member of the Holy Knights. (btw, I haven't read the manga so don't scream at me for spoiler. At worse I'm foreshadowing). To think that these members didn't die, they just hid under everyone's nose and blended in with the general population.

That spear catch and return now falls up there at most epic game of catch. I can't wait for future episodes as long as they keep this quality up and avoid getting fillers.
What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about?

You know, this show wouldn't have been so SHITTY if they ACTUALLY looked exactly like in their wanted posters.

The only thing that makes me want to continue this shit is the Giant Jessica. (and Gilthunder. Goddamnit LONG have I waited to see actual main character knights in FULL BODY ARMOUR).

And Meliodas/Melodias FAILS as a player. Shit man, leave it to Cobra or Dandy. Kids can't do shit right.

What do I do to myself

Why does this show commit more than 7 deadly sins

Why does it look so appealing yet end up being so shitty

I'm loving the basic premise of this. A bunch of people traveling through a fantasy world looking for a bunch of other people is always fun and the show does a good job of making me curious about the other members.
The details are a little rough on the edges though. The drama with the boy felt fairly rushed and it was just silly how the villagers were tugging at the sword in a 90° angle. No matter how much force they apply this way, it's not gonna move, it's gonna break at best. Anybody should see that -.-.
The stuff with the spear was pretty badass though, nice way to end the episode.
I probably regret this post by now.

Oh Mead, why'd you have to make Gilthunder stab his sword in the ground?
I mean all the villagers couldn't pull it out. Also the two Holy Knights that were watching are dicks.
Good thing Meliodas is there. With Elizabeth in her new outfit.

That was a nice spear throw by Lord Gilthunder.
Too bad Meliodas is badass enough to catch the spear and then throw it back.

Awesome, another member of the Seven Deadly Sins will appear.
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.
