I didn't make it very far with this anime. The fact that Meliodis is constantly all over the princess disgusted me. And I can't stand females who are clueless and weak. I know I'm one of the minority when saying this, but I hated it and only made it 3 episodes in.

I cannot express in words how much I adore the Seven Deadly Sins. I've watched the anime (both seasons) so many times. I've read the manga twice. I love the characters. The author's drawing style is incredible. Who's your favourite character?

Hi and thank you for your recommendation. I have recently gotten back into the manga scene & wanted to read all of the hot ones, & Seven Deadly Sins has been one of them. I'm glad it's easy to follow.

Haven't read the manga, the anime is great though. 2019 had a lot of fantastic anime releases and Seven Deadly Sins is on my top 5. Can't wait to see what they had in store for next season.

This is one of my favorite anime shows. I love the characters.

Is the manga available in English?

I always find this type of thing disconcerting in anime. There's no point to it. I feel like I'm desensitized to perverted crap like this in anime since it's so prevalent, but I wish it would just stop. This show is one of my favorites, would have just been that much better if they kept it classy.

I absolutely love this series. Meliodas is my favorite character. He's always so comical and pervy except for when he's angry. No one should ever get this guy angry.

While I have not read the original manga, I loved the Netflix series. I can't wait to see more and I am looking forward on finding the manga.

I totally agree! I do watch the show but I've never really liked Elizabeth because of how passive she often is.

I saw some of it on Netflix and have been interested to read it too, still on my list of things to read though at the moment.

Elizabeth’s clueless act, Meliodas behavior towards her and the clothing style many of the female characters wear annoy me a lot, it’s just unnecessary fan service. Still, i quite enjoyed the fantasy aspect of the show, the world building (the level of destruction doesn’t make any sense though), Merlin and Escanor.
