Anime Review: The Seven Deadly Sins (Nanatsu no Taizai)

I just like noticed that I have never really done an anime/manga review before even though I have practically ranted and raved on and on about TV Shows and Movies. So recently a friend suggested The Seven Deadly Sins to me because since my circle of friends are made up of anime obsessed people not knowing about the latest is sought of a bore during hang outs. You become the odd one out. So I took a dive and watched episode 1 in which turned into episode two then 24. It was an epic adventure I tell you.


  • The "Seven Deadly Sins," a group of evil knights who conspired to overthrow the kingdom of Britannia, were said to have been eradicated by the Holy Knights, although some claim that they still live. Ten years later, the Holy Knights have staged a Coup d'état and assassinated the king, becoming the new, tyrannical rulers of the kingdom. Elizabeth, the king's only daughter, sets out on a journey to find the "Seven Deadly Sins," and to enlist their help in taking back the kingdom.
  • The Seven Deadly Sins were once an active group of knights in the region of Britannia, who disbanded after they supposedly plotted to overthrow the Liones Kingdom. Their supposed defeat came at the hands of the Holy Knights, but rumors continued to persist that they were still alive. Ten years later, the Holy Knights staged a coup d'état and captured the king, becoming the new, tyrannical rulers of the kingdom. The third princess, Elizabeth, then starts out on a journey to find the Seven Deadly Sins and enlist their help in taking back the kingdom.
Now I am a huge skeptic when it comes to anime, it took extreme boredom for me to actually google this. I have also learned that it is never good to judge a show from someone elses description. When she described it to me it sounded so 'One Piece' and I hate that anime. This anime to me isn't really something of a man's anime, I consider a girls show. The entire centered around love anyway, they protagonists all came together because of love and I think that link is what made the show so alluring.

As you know I am a romantic at heart so my gushing at this show has basis. I always thought that having a show centered around a strong bond for someone makes it more interesting. The couples were all matched perfectly.

Not only that but I think that the fight scenes were epic-ally done. Also the comedy was spot on so you know I was wholly entertained.

Have a look see and tell me what you think.
