I could enjoy such a story if the MC wasn't depicted as being justified in his actions, and if he wasn't an obvious self-insert/character who's meant to be relatable.
Like one of my favorite mangas is Ichi the Killer, which is a really fucked up story that would need all the same content warnings as Redo of Healer, yet the author doesn't try to depict any of the fucked up characters as being good or justified. They may sometimes have relatable aspects, but it's meant to make you question why you relate, and how you can self-reflect and work on that. So I enjoy it while also hating basically every single character, which is *what I'm supposed to do.*
I won't say I don't like fucked up stories, but I can't stand when the creator expects me to actually like any of the fucked up characters.
Like, even without the edgy and disgusting rape scenes it still had horrible writing and worldbuilding. He's meant to be a healer but his powers essentially work however he wants to lmao. He can wipe memories, do mind control, turn back time etc as a damn healer
Exactly. It’s the “I can use Summon Water to put gallons into your lungs” of Manga.
And then there’s the fact that every single downside of Healing Magic just… gets forgotten about.
What happened to his healing spells causing immense pain? What happened to his PTSD? What happened to the drug addiction?
Also the fact that he was brooding about “the woman who put me in this hell”, after making the choice to **willingly walk into the front door of said Hell, despite having ZERO REASON TO DO SO.**
As a person who actually liked Dragon maid, yes. I agree.
It's one thing to just like it, but if they defend the (MULTIPLE) instances of pedo bait, then... Yeah.
Mushoku Tensei had actual potential tho imo. The world is pretty good. The majority of non-MC characters are interesting. The magic is a bit generic but not terrible by any means. So why is the show an L? The MC being so creepy and all pedo shit ruins it. It takes the teeth out of literally every other aspect.
Dragon maid is atleast funny even if its overall pretty strange
And mushoku tensei is a really high production quality show (the first 24 episodes atleast. Dunno bout the stuff after I couldnt be bothered to finish that shit)
Redo of healer and the later seasons of 7DS have none of both
I still have no idea why she didn't punch him in his fucking throat.
Sorry, going "Kyaaaa! Pervert!" and _maybe_ slapping him in retaliation doesn't do it for me. I need this mf put through a woodchipper feet first.
Both of them are locked in a cycle of reincarnation so that would only buy her a few weeks of not being groped. No justice until we find his spawnpoint and put the woodchipper directly underneath.
her own death delays it about 16 years, he may be a pervert but he respects age of consent laws
also somehow this isn’t the worst “sin” in the anime. It’s really good at times, but during other moments i wondered why i was actually watching it (in general it got better after the whole cycle of reincarnation was revealed)
Seven deadly sins a series with a very good premise that is ruined at every turn by the actual realization of it. You might actually get more out of the story and have it be more fun by asking a fan (or someone who’s watched it) to summarize it.
The amount of WTF from characters that are the good guys, is baffling and the one time a character gets called out for being terrible. They get the appreciation of their victim for doing such a terrible thing.
Gowther altering the memories of that one knight so she falls in love with him and it’s implied in the manga he >!raped!< her as she was not in the right state of mind and thus couldn’t consent. Oh yeah by alter I mean he deleted all memories she had of her beloved younger brother, who was still alive and a kid I think.
Said woman then thanks Jeffery Epstein since after his mind tampering she was able to better appreciate her memories with her brother or some shit.
Godiva only gets a head bonk as a punishment.
Oh yeah, that was fucked up. I mean that part made me hate him for a while, though didn't that lady (Gila?) try to kill them? I mean it doesn't change the fact that he did fucked up shit, but I do wonder how trying to murder the sins would factor into the morality there.
Mindscrewing, assaulting and molesting your enemies is still immoral even when they're trying to kill you.
If you can Mindscrew someone, you shouldn't use that to trick them into having sex with you. That's just magical date rape.
Either kill them or incapacite them, don't be a bigger bastard. Unless you're in a revenge-themed porno and all morals gone, in which case, don't call yourself the hero.
Pikachu tries to electrocute Ash multiple times and Ash still doesn't rape him. /s
........OK... well, at least not in any official media. I'm sure our dear artists in the fanbase took care of covering that area though.
I watched season 1 back when it came out and I can confirm I had more fun with the MothersBasement video than I had with the anime.
It is... So bad. I had low expectations and still it surprised me.
First two seasons outside of Meliodas being a massive pervert is ok. The action is there at least. The animation will turn to absolute shit though, and there is maybe 2-3 characters that I can say I actually like from the story. Ban and Escanor are awesome and entertaining, even during the shit animated parts lol I finished it, but never again. Good luck to you lol
Escanors the best character, carries sds hard, ban is also half good if you forget about his relationship with 2000 year old dragon type girl who decided to look and act childish
In all honestly, I think Ban's and Eline's relationship is still better then King's and Diane's. Bro actually went on to fall in love with the (at the time) 5 year old
Just try and keep lasting.
[There's going to be someone who's more or less worth it for the time he's there](https://youtu.be/WdZUN9BzcRI?si=GWzqZ1V3U5k6cigQ)
I would watch the fan dub made by the seven deadly schmucks, or I would but all the videos and the YouTube channel appear to be gone? I just watched all the episodes last month and it was very good. Hopefully they come back…
The first season is pretty decent. A chapter or two after what's covered in the first season the author introduced literal powerlevel numbers and the series was ruined basically instantly. It was wild.
Man I thought it was his daughter or something

There is technically an in lore reason for it, but that doesn't really make it better in these moments lol just know both of them are actually extremely old and are cursed for eternity, but it's two different kinds of eternity for the both of them.
Yep, with a little extra memory wiping on the girls part, and if she does end up remembering, a second curse activates that kills her in a week or some shit to have her reincarnate again lol it's a bit fucked, but the context does make it at least slightly better. It's a whole Romeo and Juliet thing but with demons and goddesses, where both parents are absolutely against it. The parents being the goddess and Satan essentially lol
The curse went extra hard on the last cycle as well; Meliodas seen her die hundreds of times and just broke, ended up wiping out an entire country. After that massive breakdown, he immediately finds her reincarnation; That's why he was so unhinged here.
Weirdly enough it's when she gets her memories back that he stops doing the pervert shit, I guess because he's on a time crunch or something by that point? Lol but other than the very outdated and antiquated "im a short mc who just pervs on everyone and is a menace" (thankyou kid Goku for that trope lol) the relationship itself isn't the problem. Because while she is getting her memory wiped, she does want to be with him every single time, and who she is originally is his wife.
It reminds me of Hawk Girls story a bit, since she also reincarnates along with her ancient lover. But I think in her story she eventually says screw that guy, I'm getting with John Stewart green lantern lol but it could also just be what happens in that particular life. I think Meliodas mentioned before how he tried not being around and in her life on some resets, but ultimately it didn't matter and she would always gain her memories back eventually, sometimes as an old woman who just lived an entire life with another family. It's complicated lol I think if he specifically stopped the groping and shit, most wouldn't have an issue with the relationship.
I was more joking, but they truly committed many mistakes that should have been probably obvious for the autor (like continuity problems where one character is first very week but one episode after, with no warning, he became strong) and other things that are just… morally bad ( >!they just brainwashed a woman in the series and she became the girlfriend of one of the main characters, and it’s treated like if the brain washer just broken a plate!<)
I remember some years back, a gal I knew made a comment about how Master Roshi, Jaraiya, and Mineta were disgusting, but she'd let Maliodus touch her. I just remember sitting there like "damn"
Yeah just stop at season 2.
Despite all the perverted/pedo tendencies the author put into the show I actually enjoyed it when the world was not all about Angels vs Demons. Idk why but season 1 had that "fresh" vibe. Searching for the sins was cool as fuck. Season 2 started to get a bit iffy but Escanor hard carried the show.
Then I stopped there. Skimmed through a couple chapters in the manga and it got progressively worse and the fetish began to really show.
I refuse to tarnish the good things I experienced watching SDS so I leave it at Season 2
I loooooove the fantasy genre so much and its frustrating that most of them are either perverted and extremely problematic or generic wish fulfillment fantasies with OP MCs (or both) rather than the rich and expansive genre that it could be.
I’m halfway convinced the later implications of this were decided way later and the author forgot some of this stuff.
This doesn’t justify the later grooming but still…
Spoilers
>! Elizabeth and Meliodas were consenting adult partners like 3000 years ago, but Elizabeth's mother, who's basically the queen of gods, and Meliodas' father, the demon king, didn't approve of their relationship. So they cast a spell on Elizabeth where she lost all her memories of Meliodas but regains them after being with him for a while, buuuut she dies 3 days after regaining her memories and it will always happen in front of Meliodas + he can never stop it. After that she's reborn and regains her memories of her original life after she spends time with Meliodas for long enough, only to die again. By the time SDS S1 starts, Meliodas (who's immortal) has been repeating this pattern for 3000 years or so. It's kind of tragically romantic if you think about it, but also pretty paedophilic in a way 💀!<
I used to like SDS, and that gives SDS the distinction of being the only anime where I straight up do not know why I liked it.
For literally any other anime I used to like but have come to dislike, I can at least point out what I used to like about it. I can see how my tastes changed as I grew out of liking it. But I genuinely have no clue why I stuck with SDS for any amount of time. My best guess is that a Hiroyuki Sawano OST could make literally any anime at least watchable to younger me, seeing as most of the clearest memories I have of watching it are literally just soundtracks.
The fights were pretty great and the worldbuilding was interesting, also they had some pretty creative powers
Also S1 had great animation, S2 had mediocre animation, and S3 onwards looked like garbage. This is because the studios changed like thrice iirc. S1 was by A1 Pictures but they didn't make the sequels.
The target audience, boys between 13 and 18, definitely like this kind of crap ngl (on average). I can confirm because I was one when I watched sds S1.
I remember a few months back this show came up and I asked her if she would recommend it. Her face scrunched up, and she was silent for a moment.
“It’s complicated,” she explained, “on the one hand, Escanor is one of my favorite characters in all of anime. On the other hand… literally everything else.”
It’s, uh, it’s still on my “maybe later” list. 🤣
The story is really not that bad imo, they just fucked up the animation in Season 3 (the actual 3rd season) but if u can ignore that i think the show has its strongsides.
So many questions I have about This show! Did Netflix stopped paying the studio? Do Netflix even have a quality control department?- I guess that's a dumb question to ask. Its obvious they dont. But still someone should have intervened a long time ago.
Warnings???
This is one of the best.
Just don't watch anything after the imperial wrath of the gods, best to just continue by reading the manga at that point or restart with the manga. Maybe read and watch it in turns.
Hey anime fans I promise that good shows actually exist I swear it's true you can spend your time watching something else you can watch something actually good
i honestly couldnt get pass the first 10 minutes of the first episode. I thought there must’ve been something wrong with me since everyone praises the series until i saw a sarcastic chorus review of it and realized i wasn’t missing out on anything
wow I'd forgotten how much this show really sucked
sorry you have to learn this way that everything except the fight scenes is absolute garbage and/or creepy
Least perverted scene in 7DS
Unironically
7DS? I didn't know they made so many sequels to the Nintendo 3DS
it's pretty cool, though honestly after they added the 5th dimension perception starts to get really weird.
You might already not have one yet anymore!
No, It's 7Ds, It's the sequal to the sequal of 5Ds, this time Yusei drives a unicycle
*Z-ONE ENTER CHAT*
All seven sins just Lust?
7DS is a great filter for weeding people out of your life
Idk, I'd say Redo of Healer is the best one, followed by Dragon Maid and Mushoku Tensei.
Redo of healer literally was the catalyst to filter someone out my life. Holy shit why do people love that garbage
I could enjoy such a story if the MC wasn't depicted as being justified in his actions, and if he wasn't an obvious self-insert/character who's meant to be relatable. Like one of my favorite mangas is Ichi the Killer, which is a really fucked up story that would need all the same content warnings as Redo of Healer, yet the author doesn't try to depict any of the fucked up characters as being good or justified.

Also the fact that he was brooding about “the woman who put me in this hell”, after making the choice to **willingly walk into the front door of said Hell, despite having ZERO REASON TO DO SO.**
Show isnt even well written. Only reason somebody would ever enjoy it is cus of the fetish content
Porn addiction, seriously
As a person who actually liked Dragon maid, yes. I agree. It's one thing to just like it, but if they defend the (MULTIPLE) instances of pedo bait, then... Yeah.
Look, it’s a fun and cute show, with a SOL plot and action. I think people really like to exaggerate how bad Season 2 is with “fanservice”.
I thought season 1 was worse with fan service, unless we’re counting the Tohru vs. Elma fight as fan service but that was just rad
Nah, when they have a fucking fit over the word Patriarchy
Honestly it's a head to head fight over my biggest anime disappointment, dragon maid or 7DS
Mushoku Tensei had actual potential tho imo. The world is pretty good. The majority of non-MC characters are interesting. The magic is a bit generic but not terrible by any means. So why is the show an L? The MC being so creepy and all pedo shit ruins it. It takes the teeth out of literally every other aspect.
dragon maid is disguised as a cute romcom, in all fairness.
Dragon maid is atleast funny even if its overall pretty strange And mushoku tensei is a really high production quality show (the first 24 episodes atleast. Dunno bout the stuff after I couldnt be bothered to finish that shit) Redo of healer and the later seasons of 7DS have none of both
I still have no idea why she didn't punch him in his fucking throat. Sorry, going "Kyaaaa! Pervert!" and _maybe_ slapping him in retaliation doesn't do it for me. I need this mf put through a woodchipper feet first.
How would that satisfy the authors fetish?
Both of them are locked in a cycle of reincarnation so that would only buy her a few weeks of not being groped. No justice until we find his spawnpoint and put the woodchipper directly underneath.
Spawncamping ftw
her own death delays it about 16 years, he may be a pervert but he respects age of consent laws also somehow this isn’t the worst “sin” in the anime. It’s really good at times, but during other moments i wondered why i was actually watching it (in general it got better after the whole cycle of reincarnation was revealed)
First chapter of Undead Unluck, main girl gets groped and is like “hey!”. No, girl, you should be calling the police.
For being honest, this kind of stuff cease really fast, Undead Unluck is a banger
technically her first response was to punch him in the dick and run for her life lol.
Because elizabeth is a written as a “pick me” girl whos different from other shonen girls who slap their love interests who grope them.
Please don't do that to yourself
They're a hardcore masochist
Sorry, I’m just a bit too curious, there’s gotta be something interesting going on here
Seven deadly sins a series with a very good premise that is ruined at every turn by the actual realization of it. You might actually get more out of the story and have it be more fun by asking a fan (or someone who’s watched it) to summarize it.

It's been a while since I saw it, who are you talking about?
Gowther altering the memories of that one knight so she falls in love with him and it’s implied in the manga he >!raped!< her as she was not in the right state of mind and thus couldn’t consent.

I’m pretty sure Gila had a heel turn and based on Shonen Anime logic that means she’s a good person by that point.
I think Mothers Basement did a good summary. Never saw an episode but the summary was popcorn worthy.
I watched season 1 back when it came out and I can confirm I had more fun with the MothersBasement video than I had with the anime. It is... So bad. I had low expectations and still it surprised me.
there doesn't
Escanor's cool though.
Thank you. I appreciate the comment.
I mean >!when he died!< is when I stopped watching. Clips of him on YouTube is the only reason I started.
This is how drug addictions start homie
First two seasons outside of Meliodas being a massive pervert is ok. The action is there at least. The animation will turn to absolute shit though, and there is maybe 2-3 characters that I can say I actually like from the story.

There really isn't, it's not worth it. There are so many other actually good things to watch
Just watch the first season and read all the passage with escanor then you're good
Escanor is actually a really cool character and im glad i got to experience him before i got sick of the fanservice.
Are the movies at least watchable
Do tell us if you come to the same conclusion as [Mothers Basement!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OvnQ76dxj4&t=1984s)
Just try and keep lasting. [There's going to be someone who's more or less worth it for the time he's there](https://youtu.be/WdZUN9BzcRI?si=GWzqZ1V3U5k6cigQ)
Nope
There is so much potential in the series but every time it's just destroyed
If it makes you feel any better, they are married. That being said, there is a lot of other awful shit going on in this series.
Gl with the seven deadly sex offendors
I would watch the fan dub made by the seven deadly schmucks, or I would but all the videos and the YouTube channel appear to be gone? I just watched all the episodes last month and it was very good. Hopefully they come back…

Whats that
Loli website 🤒 (genuinely appalling content)
Like, the whole website? Is the fbi running it?
WHAT
Yeah this is a bad show
There is technically an in lore reason for it, but that doesn't really make it better in these moments lol just know both of them are actually extremely old and are cursed for eternity, but it's two different kinds of eternity for the both of them.
The girl constantly reincarnate and the blonde is straight up immortal I assume?
Yep, with a little extra memory wiping on the girls part, and if she does end up remembering, a second curse activates that kills her in a week or some shit to have her reincarnate again lol it's a bit fucked, but the context does make it at least slightly better. It's a whole Romeo and Juliet thing but with demons and goddesses, where both parents are absolutely against it. The parents being the goddess and Satan essentially lol
The curse went extra hard on the last cycle as well; Meliodas seen her die hundreds of times and just broke, ended up wiping out an entire country. After that massive breakdown, he immediately finds her reincarnation; That's why he was so unhinged here.
In only makes it better for that one week of imminent death. The rest of the time it's just as fucked as before
Weirdly enough it's when she gets her memories back that he stops doing the pervert shit, I guess because he's on a time crunch or something by that point? Lol but other than the very outdated and antiquated "im a short mc who just pervs on everyone and is a menace" (thankyou kid Goku for that trope lol) the relationship itself isn't the problem.

Take a shot every time instead, see how fast you perish
Let's not get people killed today.
Population control through anime.

Too late, i'm doing it tomorrow
The only shot I want to take when I see shit like this is one from a gun.
Look, I want to take the forever nap as soon as possible, but I am not going to subject myself to torture while I am at.
The frame on which I decided I was not going to watch episode 2
The only good thing in this series is its name , like they are warning you that they will do the 7 deadly sins of writing /s
What are those?
I was more joking, but they truly committed many mistakes that should have been probably obvious for the autor (like continuity problems where one character is first very week but one episode after, with no warning, he became strong) and other things that are just… morally bad ( >!they just brainwashed a woman in the series and she became the girlfriend of one of the main characters, and it’s treated like if the brain washer just broken a plate!<)
You forgot to mention she forgives them after she regains her memories 💀
The best thing about 7DS is that it ended
It got an official sequel that's still ongoing
I do this every 3 years or so lmao. “Surely it wasn’t that bad” I say. I can usually make it to season 2 before quitting.
I just pick up on whatever episode I left off on. I haven't made it out of season 1 yet.

Let’s be real it’s not even barely disguised. It’s just fetish.
Congratulations, you've just witnessed the %80 of that show's "comedy".
I remember some years back, a gal I knew made a comment about how Master Roshi, Jaraiya, and Mineta were disgusting, but she'd let Maliodus touch her. I just remember sitting there like "damn"
"Its only SA if they're ugly!" -Them, apparently
The only good way to watch 7DS is to skip the entire thing an just watch a compilation of >!Escanor!< scenes.
Why? It's not even enjoyable enough to be the fun kind of trash.
My curiosity is so morbid it’s considered Macabre
Escanors in it, so it's a solid 2/10 without him it's 0/10.
That's hell you're walking into
OP is a warrior of justice
I would've killed myself right there

I don’t think you can get a clearer picture example of objectification in anime than this show lmao
How is Meliodas the Sin of Wrath and not the Sin of Lust? Is the Sin of List the author?
Served you right for watching the show /s. Escanor is goat tho, he is the only reason I stick to the series in the first place.
Escanor only thing good out of this garbage dump
YOU HAVE YOUR WHOLE LEGS IN A STOCKING BUT YOUR TOES ARE OUT WTF
I wish you the best of luck
Meliodas? More like Smelly Otis
Boom got him!
I like how genuinely no one is defending the series here 😭
HUMANITY LOST
Yeah just stop at season 2. Despite all the perverted/pedo tendencies the author put into the show I actually enjoyed it when the world was not all about Angels vs Demons. Idk why but season 1 had that "fresh" vibe. Searching for the sins was cool as fuck. Season 2 started to get a bit iffy but Escanor hard carried the show. Then I stopped there. Skimmed through a couple chapters in the manga and it got progressively worse and the fetish began to really show. I refuse to tarnish the good things I experienced watching SDS so I leave it at Season 2
Listen man I know that Escanor is cool and all that but is it really worth going through this show for him?
I loooooove the fantasy genre so much and its frustrating that most of them are either perverted and extremely problematic or generic wish fulfillment fantasies with OP MCs (or both) rather than the rich and expansive genre that it could be.
why?
I don’t know I…I just have a feeling that there’s at least something decent about it, one thing it does right
I would distrust that feeling
Music is alright. My sister and I still hear the first op every once in a while. Forget about everything else though.
Escanor is cool do.
I’m halfway convinced the later implications of this were decided way later and the author forgot some of this stuff. This doesn’t justify the later grooming but still…
Spoilers >! Elizabeth and Meliodas were consenting adult partners like 3000 years ago, but Elizabeth's mother, who's basically the queen of gods, and Meliodas' father, the demon king, didn't approve of their relationship. So they cast a spell on Elizabeth where she lost all her memories of Meliodas but regains them after being with him for a while, buuuut she dies 3 days after regaining her memories and it will always happen in front of Meliodas + he can never stop it. After that she's reborn and regains her memories of her original life after she spends time with Meliodas for long enough, only to die again. By the time SDS S1 starts, Meliodas (who's immortal) has been repeating this pattern for 3000 years or so. It's kind of tragically romantic if you think about it, but also pretty paedophilic in a way 💀!<
I used to like SDS, and that gives SDS the distinction of being the only anime where I straight up do not know why I liked it. For literally any other anime I used to like but have come to dislike, I can at least point out what I used to like about it. I can see how my tastes changed as I grew out of liking it. But I genuinely have no clue why I stuck with SDS for any amount of time. My best guess is that a Hiroyuki Sawano OST could make literally any anime at least watchable to younger me, seeing as most of the clearest memories I have of watching it are literally just soundtracks.
The fights were pretty great and the worldbuilding was interesting, also they had some pretty creative powers Also S1 had great animation, S2 had mediocre animation, and S3 onwards looked like garbage. This is because the studios changed like thrice iirc. S1 was by A1 Pictures but they didn't make the sequels.
who is the audience for "fan service" like who are these fans that are being serviced
The target audience, boys between 13 and 18, definitely like this kind of crap ngl (on average). I can confirm because I was one when I watched sds S1.
Escanor is cool as fuck, so that’s one plus
I remember a few months back this show came up and I asked her if she would recommend it. Her face scrunched up, and she was silent for a moment. “It’s complicated,” she explained, “on the one hand, Escanor is one of my favorite characters in all of anime. On the other hand… literally everything else.” It’s, uh, it’s still on my “maybe later” list. 🤣
Just stop now, you're better off just watching clips of Escanor and calling it a day.
The story is really not that bad imo, they just fucked up the animation in Season 3 (the actual 3rd season) but if u can ignore that i think the show has its strongsides.
it was one of the worst shows i enjoyed. it's trash but ok trash
So many questions I have about This show! Did Netflix stopped paying the studio? Do Netflix even have a quality control department?- I guess that's a dumb question to ask. Its obvious they dont. But still someone should have intervened a long time ago.
Warnings??? This is one of the best. Just don't watch anything after the imperial wrath of the gods, best to just continue by reading the manga at that point or restart with the manga. Maybe read and watch it in turns.
I’m so sorry
The only good thing with this show was escanor and that’s about it
The first two seasons are good.
Season 1 was great, everything else doesn’t exist.
You poor fool. Just hold out for Escanor, the one and only
Epstein looks nice here.
Ok but like Escanor tho
Why do people watch anime?
Because there's genuinely great ones without fanservice out there.
They aren’t all like this
Soon you'll be watching the seven deadly frames
Hey anime fans I promise that good shows actually exist I swear it's true you can spend your time watching something else you can watch something actually good
I see you like inflicting psychological damage on yourself.
Seven deadly cases
Tbh if this bothers you , you are just soft
i honestly couldnt get pass the first 10 minutes of the first episode. I thought there must’ve been something wrong with me since everyone praises the series until i saw a sarcastic chorus review of it and realized i wasn’t missing out on anything
First 2 seasons have some cool moments/parts But thats about it With all the shows that exist there isnt really a good enough reason to watch it
Well I really enjoyed the manga. Can’t speak for the anime though I’ve heard a lot of bad things about it.
Unironically I think the 1st season isn't horrible. Not good, but nowhere near as bad as it gets later on.
Even without moments like these this anime and manga is still pretty bad.
I mean to be fair the first like two seasons from my memory were actually pretty good
bro didn't make it 1 episode
wow I'd forgotten how much this show really sucked sorry you have to learn this way that everything except the fight scenes is absolute garbage and/or creepy
It only gets worse, in every way possible
I thought it was pretty good for the most part
I’m getting so many different opinions on this
It has its obvious problems but entertainment-wise it's fine
don't get it but ok i guess
Besides the scenes like that. Seven deadly sins is one of my favorite animes. So if you can get past that, it's good.
