Premise

edit

The Seven Deadly Sins are a band of knights in the land of Britannia(ブリタニア,Buritania)who had disbanded ten years earlier after being framed for plotting a coup against the Liones Kingdom(リオネス vương quốc,Rionesu Ōkoku),the Holy Knights who sequestered them before taking control in the wake of a rebellion they organized. Liones' third princess, Elizabeth Liones, finds the Seven Deadly Sins' leader, Meliodas, before they track down his comrades so they can clear their names and liberate Liones from the Holy Knights, who were manipulated by a demon named Fraudrin into unsealing the Demon Race from their prison.

Production

edit

The Seven Deadly Sinsbegan as aone-shotthat was published inKodansha'sWeekly Shōnen Magazineon November 22, 2011.[3]Nakaba Suzukidrew more than twenty versions of the pilot chapter. One of these manuscripts, "Chapter X", was released in English onKodansha USA's website in 2015.[4]For the series, Suzuki borrowed the names of characters from tales aboutKing Arthur,but used his original ideas for their personalities and the story itself.[5]The relationship between Meliodas and Elizabeth was decided on from the beginning, but the author thought up everything else weekly as he went in order to keep it unpredictable.[6]In order to surprise readers, he purposely made the appearances of some of the titular group of knights very different from their wanted posters that appear in the first chapter and had others look the same as their poster, but gave them "horrible" personalities.[6]Although it was decided to make the protagonist of the series a "child", Suzuki struggled with designing Meliodas' profile because the character is actually an adult. He said the most difficult part was his hair; ultimately deciding on "fluffy" hair like a boy from a foreign country, which he had never done before. In the pilot chapter, the character had long, straight hair, which the author said was not as cute.[6]Suzuki said he always made sure to show the subtly different relationships between the members of the titular group of knights. For example, he said that while Ban is Meliodas' best friend, King is only a teammate with whom he does not talk. All seven have such relationships, which the author called realistically human.[6]

Jordan Richards ofAIPT ComicscalledThe Seven Deadly Sinsa must read for fans ofmedieval fantasyand traditionalshōnenaction series.[101]He felt the "unique" art helps set it apart from other series in the later category.[102]However, he did note it was hard to tell exactly what happens in some moments.[103]Rebecca Silverman ofAnime News Networkgave the first volume a B grade, calling the art interesting and the story a "neat take on the basic knights-in-shining-armor." She saw influence fromAkira Toriyamain Meliodas and 1970sshōjomangain the female characters. However, Silverman felt the art had issues withperspectiveand commented that Elizabeth lacked character development.[104]Richards noted that Elizabeth's characterization improved in the second volume.[103]He strongly praised the art, character designs and the panel layouts, particularly during action scenes; "Everyone looks so distinct and some of the shots are just phenomenal".[103]Although noting he had said it more than once before, Richards found volume nine of the series to be the best so far, with strong characterization and growth, action and drama throughout, and one of the best double-page spreads he had ever seen in any series.[105]Silverman felt that the plot of volume 14 comes off as darker when compared to the substantial changes made in its anime adaptation.[106]

In a brief review,Jason Thompsonclaimed that the series follows commonshōnenmanga elements, making its plot twists and dialog predictable. He did however like the art and the series' European setting.[107]Both Silverman and Danica Davidson ofOtaku USAwarned that Meliodas' perverted actions towards Elizabeth, which are used for comedic relief, could possibly be misinterpreted by some readers.[104][108]Richards found the English translation's retaining ofJapanese honorificsto be "kind of jarring", given the manga's heavy use of British and medieval themes and elements.[102]

Anime

edit

Reviewing the first anime forAnime News Network,Theron Martin felt that the series has a slow start with typical action fare but the storytelling picks up significantly in the second half. He had strong praise for the music and enjoyed the main cast and their interactions, but not the common archetypal villains. Martin noted that the art has a "semi-cartoonish look" that one would expect in a series that "skews a bit younger," butThe Seven Deadly Sins'graphic violence and minimalfan serviceprove it's "anything but a kiddie show."[126]Martin largely comparedRevival of The Commandmentsto the anime's first season and toDragon Ball Z.He was positively surprised by the amount of character development within the main cast, but again found the arc's titular villains far less compelling, although he did note the powers they possess make for lively fights.[127]

The first DVD volume of the anime debuted at first place on the Oricon's Japanese animation DVD chart with 3,574 copies sold.[128]With 32,762 copies sold of the five volumes released at the time,The Seven Deadly Sinswas the 30th best-selling animation in the first half of 2015.[129]In their first weeks of release, the first and second DVD volumes ofSigns of Holy Warsold 1,194 and 1,004 copies for fourth and second place, respectively.[130][131]In October 2017, Netflix revealed thatThe Seven Deadly Sinsanime was the fourth mostbinge-watchedshow within its first 24 hours of release on their platform.[132]
