> even the other characters can't believe how something so bullshit could happen

What the fuck is even going on in this manga? All the commandments get BTFO one by one. They are no threat, they are the biggest bunch of jobbers you could imagine.
I can already predict the next chapter.
>King and Diane defeated the giant king and fairy king
>They defeated them 3 weeks ago while Mel was sleeping and nothing else of importance happened
>The fucking end

>>146976155
You just know Nakaba is going to pull a Sprigan 12 and have everyone get resurrected.

>introduced and fodderized in two chapters

Guess that's why Nakaba put Merlin on stone for almost the entire arc.

>>146976155
Nakaba already planned long ago that the series would be at least 40 volumes long, with 3 major arcs.

I'm not sure what he's trying to do by humiliating all the commandments like that but they're most probably not done yet.

At least Meliodas vs Zeldris, Diane vs Dolor and King vs Gloxinia should be proper fights and not curbstomp battles.

>>146975863
>>146975912
>>146976016
>>146976077
Kek. Hendricksen proves ones again that he is best villain

>>146976336
>h-he planned everything all along
I'd rather read improvised bullshits than this ``planned'' bullshit.

>>146976283
So why didn't she could do that against Garan? She was clearly totally overpowered by the latter.

>>146976459
He clearly did. Before talking about bullshit it would be more wise to wait for how it's gonna continue. It's not Bleach.

>>146976519
>pulling bullshits out of your ass then retcon
Alluka was less of an asspull than this

>>146976461

difference in physical power
magic here is reliant on at least some movements, so she got *teleports behind you* by galan, in addition to the fact that she didn't know about his commandment

>>146976155
I dunno man, I kind of like it. In almost any series characters this strong on the heroes side would have to be either written out or contrived to otherwise not be useful. It's kind of refreshing to see the OP side character-types actually walk in and be exactly as powerful as you'd think they'd be.

Now whether that makes for a good story is another thing, but hey it's got me guessing as to what's actually going to happen after this so it's doing its job I guess.

>>146976519
Remember when the sins were jobbing against the likes of Guila and Jericho and Gil and then stronger than them again and then jobbing against the likes of them again and then job some more and win some more without any actual change in their power in between?
This Merlin's bullshit is just classic Nakaba, I'm only surprised he didn't do this sooner and had The Dynamic Duo (tm) steamrolled half of the commandments first.

>>146976519
>It's not Bleach.
No, it's even worse. It's turning into fucking Fairy Tail.
>These enemies are the strongest ones you can imagine
>Oh no, we really struggle against them
>LOL, just joking, time to one shot everyone and everything
>Oh no, they came back
>You fell for it again, we will just one shot them again, aww yeah

>>146976155
He's weeding out some of the commandments that are more widespread terror than individualized threats so the actual fights will pack a bigger punch.
I mean, look at that one re-dead chick. And Greyroad's literally just a huge stalemate enthusiast.
I just want to see Dark Shadow Edgelord Brother Mel get his stupid face punched in already.

>>146976016
So basically Grayroad lost because she does't have hands and couldn't grab to anything unlike Fraudrin.

King is the best sin.

Yeah, gonna have to join the crowd here. This development doesn't feel rushed, it feels shit. A few chapters ago those guys were the strongest group present in the manga and now they are just being humiliated for no reason. It would be okay if it was a joker character like Escanor but if everyone does it them what is the point? Not only that the whole Azure stars hunting Gowther lost a lot of impact after Dezel died like a bitch. I hope Nakaba is doing this to kickstar the TC development into more mature warriors otherwise it is just shit.

In fact, the text says 反則級 which means "rule-breaking level" but I went with "cheated".

I mean, in the first place, 4400 for a very old comrade of Meliodas just doesn't fit.

Also, what if she just have the ability to lock it away but not really kill it?

>>146976461
Because she trained after this faggot speedreader.

>>146979238
It's not DB, you don't get 10x stronger in one month. It was clearly shown with Gil's and Hauser's body that could "just" gain like 2000-3000 after training a lot.

>>146979279
>you don't get 10x stronger in one month
Special Snowflakes do. See how strong Eli got in a month and King probably either mastering his true spear, getting wings or both soon.

>>146979386
btw did i miss the explanation of why he has no wings or it's still not known?

>>146979386
Merlin is one of the older characters of the series. She sure as hell already unlocked all her potential. Meanwhile Elisabeth barely learnt to use her powers before the timeskip, and King's wings are his big lifetime power up. They all have limits. It's not DB where you constantly get 100x stronger.

>>146979564
He wanted to tell Jericho, but was stopped. In a recent omake he calls himself a half-man, suggesting that he isn't a real adult yet, but it may as well be that Nakaba just revealed like that that he's a Hybrid.

>>146978369
Night one is 7/10.
Day is 3/10.
His fags are shit. Gowther best Sin.

>>146979564
Him and Elaine just aren't "grown-ups" yet for some reason. That' at least what it means when you have wings.

At the very least the two only members of the "fairy king" family doesn't have wings, it must mean something.

>>146979611
>Merlin is one of the older characters of the series. She sure as hell already unlocked all her potential.
We literally don't know as we never saw her go all out against anyone until now. She never fought Galan, she was stoned right away. This chapter was also not a fight, but just her memeing them. We have no idea how strong she is and what she could have done against Galan if she wasn't stoned.

>>146979709
She tried to teleport him and that totally failed. So yes, she did try something. Then she added or they're completely overpowered. She began talking with him because she knew they wouldn't win in the first place.

He doesn't call himself half-human he says he's still half a man, meaning not fully grown.

>>146979789

Sauce about what?

>>146979769
She could have teleported them instead of him. She could have put everyone under perfect cube depending on who gets attacked etc etc. You can't really call that a genuine fight.

>>146979802
*but everything

>>146979778
yeah, Elaine too is way stronger than the other fairies even though she doesn't have wings either.

>>146979802
The fight was really bad in particular because it made it looks like Meliodas was the faster one and Ban was the more powerful one when it should be the opposite.

>>146979820
About Merlin having unlocked all her potential.

>>146979815
I didn't say half-human. Reread the post. Half a man obviously implies that he isn't an adult yet, yeah. But it wouldn't be to unbelievable if it later turns out that he was refering to his race and thats why his wings are growing late.

>>146979802
It's weird, as in it feels like really filler and not something written by Nakaba. The powerlevels didn't make much sense, and the amount of blood splattered was beyond stupid. Everything felt really slow and forced.

>>146979895
> Merlin is one of the older characters of the series. She sure as hell already unlocked all her potential.

>>146979802
Nakaba wrote it. It's canon. There is even stuff like the Sin laws.

>>146979900
I should have worded it better. I meant that it doesn't have the same connotation in English that he could have possibly meant it any other way but that he wasn't grown.

>>146979968
So I guess that means he wrote the story (not even storyboards, just wrote the importants stuffs that should be in the episode) but they just handled it onscreen poorly?

>>146979966
Galan could have killed her easily and her PL was 4710. She had unlocked nothing. She became OP in a month and mafubaed Gray Lord.

>>146980046
Probably.

>>146979968
>>146980046
I'm pretty sure he didn't drew storyboards for 4 fucking episodes. If anything he told them what he wants to see in the special and they stretched it with filler too 4 episodes.

>>146980056
See >>146979198

That what makes the most sense. Her "body" is still supposed to be petrified after all.

>>146980046
He probably drew it. That Meliodas spin was very Nakaba-like. It can never be as good as the manga though. Nothing surprising.

>>146980218
Do you realise how long it takes too make a single proper storyboard? He never even went on hiatus with NnT to be able to do that.

>>146980282
Nakaba said it takes him like 30 minutes for one.

>>146980282
And he drew the Edinburgh specials. He was excited for the anime too. You are underestimating him.

>>146980358
Anime storyboard /= Manga storyboard
There's a difference when you have to plan for 20 minutes and not 20 pages. A proper storyboard would even need reference sheets and shit, like I doubt he'd do that.

>>146980597

While is true that the 10C are losing fast, none of them are dying.
Estarossa, Zeldris, Derriere and Monspiet "vanished" and Graylord is captured. So maybe they're the ones that they're getting a training montage.

>>146979986
Indeed, the English expression poses an issue.
In Japanese, 一人前 means "full-fledged man", "adult", etc. while 半人前 refers to the half of what we saw, i.e. half a man, a not fully grown man, etc.

Thus King's line should be more something like "I call myself a king but I'm far from being fully grown and I haven't even grown the wings yet."

>>146980702

Yeah, animation is basically Toei level.

What exactly 'this' is?

>>146976771
>Remember when the sins were jobbing against the likes of Guila and Jericho
You mean when King defeated both of them in, like 10 seconds? Don't forget that Mel and Ban were having an all-out battle against each other during the tournament a few hours before. Diane and King totally dominated their enemies.

>>146976948
Skill =/= powerlevel, which in itself indicates nothing. Just look at your pic related and Dolor's labirinth and hand shaped arena. The difference is proportionate to the difference in numbers.

>>146977830
>ultimate powerhouses
Yeah, 9 of them needed to kill Mel, and they almost died.

>>146982610

Because he had something dumb like RC in the first place.

>>146977830
We know since the beginning that the Sins are the strongest, they just needed a little training to ,show the 10com who are the best. Mel warned them but they didn't listen.

>>146976771
>Gil and then stronger than them again
You mean like when Mel pulled out his enchanted seal sword with no effort and caught his long range spear attack and returned it to him and then later pretendd to lose on purpose to find out were Ban was? Because he never really fought any of them 1 on 1 after that.

>>146982675
How is that dumb, and how is that changes the fact that he almost soloed the whole group.

>>146982188
Why would you use a cherrypicking site for your example?

>>146983098

because other than the fact that it was asspulled in the hendy battles, the fact that it combined with his natural tankiness makes almost any attempt to kill him meaningless unless it's an hax ability

>haha I'm vastly stronger than you
>oh no I'm so defeated
>u're ded
>merely pretending now all my accumulated damage will be sent to you times 10

It always feels like fights in this manga are one sided, be it in favor of the heroes or the villains.

Nice mafuba ``homage'', Nakaba-sama.

Everything makes sense.

>>146987754
Merlin was in the hyperbolic time chamber. Mel was training with King Kai during his ded time. Bretty sure Estarossa and Zeldris are on Namek now.

>>146976155
Mel warned them early on, after regaining his power. They ignored that warning and went on to underestimate everything except Mel.
And the 10Cs are still formidable to everyone that isn't the Sins, but if Nakaba lets them rampage all of the side cast would be dead. They also can't be beaten as a group, due to hax commandments, which is why Mel wanted them to split up to make them easier to handle. Although if Mel knew they would split up so easily he probably wouldn't take the effort to go and make them split up.

>>146976016
Oh hey, there's a glimpse of Graylord's mutated body under that darkness. It's just a stubby lump of meat.

>>146979386
King won't get stronger because of his wings. The wings will just allow him to channel more magic into his body so he can keep Chasti in it's true form. Then the real power-up will happen - Helbram will act as a conduit to channel his Link power into King. He'll ask the fairies and maybe the rest of Britannia to channel their power into King spirit bomb-style.

So, I only watched the anime. Do the characters keep pulling powers out of their asses?

>>146989666
Depends on what you consider
>pulling powers out of their asses
The Sins already have those powers to begin with.
They just don't use them because of circumstances, personal or not.

>>146989952
>They just don't use them because of circumstances
That's just a cookie cutter posthoc excuse for showing characters pulling things out of their asses. But then again I've already seen a lot of excuses in this line in this thread alone.

>>146980517
Additionally, Merlin's magic covers everything, while Graylord's are entirely debuffs and status effects.
