Spoiler are out and the story is moving faster than ever before. Get ready for Meliodas original sin. He is finally ready to share his story.
>>158842399
Pic 2:
What the hell is going on?
*Rub…*
I don't… understand either… Will Elizabeth be all right?
Merlin, you haven't figured out the cause?
It must be the effect from interfering with Zeldris' magic when she dispelled my curse.
Then… Elizabeth has fallen to the curse?
No.
>>158842410
Pic 3:
She's started to regain her memories…
…eh?
Her memories?
You mean… the ones of her previous lives!? That's great!!
Hmm? Previous lives? What's he talking about?
King, it's definitely shocking!!
What!! You said she had reincarnated so many times, forgetting the memories of her previous lives for 3000 years!?
Whaaaat!? No way!?
That's why Elizabeth told us she wanted to regain the memories of her previous lives.
>>158842454
Pic 4:
Watch your language, Diane!!
Wh… what? Why-
Captain's the mean one!!
He purposely ignored what Elizabeth said.
…it's over now. It won't be so long until she gets all her memories back…
Once all her memories are back,
>>158842498
Pic 5:
Elizabeth will die in three days.
>>158842518
Pic 6:
Die…? Eh? You've gotta kidding us… Captain?
That's our destiny.
I don't feel the need to be silent about it anymore.
I'm going to spill everything to you.
Q/A:
Q229: Yada Hikaru-san: Which scenes did you like in Signs of the Holy War?
Nakaba: Perhaps the second episode. I had fin putting the battle between Ban and Meliodas in the rough draft after a long time.
>>158842535
Pic 7: The goal behind my three-thousand-year travel…
Center text: What has Elizabeth been cursed for? The time for the Captain's past enshrouded in darkness to be revealed has come!!
Margin text: His lover Elizabeth dies once her memories return. The overly cruel "curse" that has been tormenting Meliodas for a very long time.
Bottom text: To be continued in chapter 224 / That's the way we live.
>>158842729
A bit surprised we get Mel's backstory before Merlin. Either way, the curse now becomes much more sinister. While it's already shitty that Elizabeth loses her memories upon each incarnation, the fact that she dies when she learns the truth makes sure Mel never gets to tell her everything, for fear of killing her off yet again.
>>158842399
Thanks anon
So is NNT going to end soon or Nakaba is picking the pace because he has a lot more to tell?
inb4 biggest plot twist ever with Gowther just shooting Elizabeth with his memory-erasing arrow, suppressing her memories (and subsequently the curse itself),
prolonging her lives
So what's left? Merlin and Arthur arcs, Escanor arc, Ban's weapon, a chance for Gowther to show off his new power of friendship powers, Elizabeth, Melodias committing genocide, his brother, and demon king. Maybe even the deal with mama pig. What am I missing?
>>158842535
Even Gowther is afraid.
>>158842399
So, I don't read this manga, but I lurk the threads occasionally. I remember like two years ago there was this huge battle where it looked like the MC was going to win, but then some bullshit happened and he got killed instead. Then, every time I'd see new threads, the MC was in bed or floating around in ghost form or there was a flashback or something. Did the story ever progress far past that?
>>158843611
Yes? We're already had a payback arc and moved on to another confrontation.
>>158843535
Or Merlin invents aging spell and Gowther transplants the memories of the previous Liz into the next one.
Or Elizabeth uses her anti-demon shit to undo her curse.
Or they freeze Elizabeth in time or hide her in some weird dimension until they kill the demon king or whoever it was that cast the spell.
Or they find a way into heaven and find all her past selves and put them in the same body.
What I really want though is for them to fail, for Elizabeth to die again, for everyone to turn against each other because of the bonds they've forged (Ban and his loli, Diane and King, etc. already proved they'd turn against Melodias for their respective waifus), for Melodias to die and lose even more of his soul, and for everything to go to shit and have to start over.
>>158842877
So why didn't Zeldris just tell her the truth all along to kill her?
Season 2 when
>>158843187
Can't remember where I read it, but I think Nakaba always planned for 40 volumes.
>>158843714
Depends on whether he knows about that particular detail of the curse. Besides, from their talk he doesn't seem to go out of his way to torment his brother, she just pissed him off in that talk of theirs, so he went "you really wanna know? well, here you go then!"
>>158842729
In other words one is cursed to remember and live forever, the other is cursed to forget and die. They can't even be together.
>>158843187
It hasn't really increased at all. If anything, this flashback slows down the pace.
>>158842877
>A bit surprised we get Mel's backstory before Merlin.
It's not his gaiden.
>>158843187
Second Part will end soon. Third part starts when they defeat Zeldris.
>>158843575
Goddesses returning, 3 gaidens + the last part of Diane's, Indura's, Goddess Queen, Mael, OGowther, the actual sealing.
>>158842399
>Eli dies
>16 year time skip
>New Eli is exactly the same
>Escanor finally looks like his wanted poster
>There's a legit reason why Meliodas has not spilled the beans about everything
I kinda half understand it but half annoyed because it feels contrived somewhat. At least there's a good reason so I can deal with it.
>>158844682
But he could just tell the Sins about it, and then Diane wouldn't have told Eli about Godizabeth.
>>158842399
Elizabeth looks striking in that panel.
On another note, even if Zeldris hadn't sped up the process, Diane already was the initial trigger to murder Elizabeth, thanks to her talking about what she saw 3000 years in the past.
>>158844776
Need to know. Wouldn't have changed a thing if they knew about the curse and would have increased the possibility of one of them absentmindedly blabbling it out. Remember, Mel lived with that kind of shit for 3000 years.
>>158844666
>all according to keikaku
>>158842399
>it's an elizabeth and meliodas chapter
These two are so fucking annoying jesus christ
>>158843774
First season is getting a reairing from July, so second season should start in January 2018.
>>158845965
Will anime onlys belive that Diane nearly killed Elizabeth and that Meliodas died?
So it's probably Elizabeth's mother who cursed her like that, right? That would parallel Meliodas and his papa.
>>158846500
It was probably the "him" that Ludociel mentioned, whoever "him" is.
>>158846719
Him is probably the Goddess Leader, who is actually female.
Elizabeth is an angel and Meliodas is a demon. So perhaps her sin was committing a taboo which was falling in love with Meliodas, or maybe a certaim act of love to be exact.
>>158846888
>falling in love with a demon is one thing, but anal?! No mobile for a week, young miss! Oh, and also curse you!
Knowing Nakaba, the DK will be a tall, bearded and ripped man. But how will the GL look like? Young? Loli? Or mature like Merlin? Old?
>>158847000
I think it's going to be the other way around, i fully expect the demon king to look almost identical to Mel.
that's fucked up
So Elizabeth's brain isn't powerful enough to process all those memories.
>>158842410
Did they show everyone's new rooms already?
>>158848227
No, just the one merlin (now eli?) slept in and the one meliodas and ban wanted. I don't think we saw the others.
>>158842729
>angel priestess supporting a demon paladin in battle
I wanna see this.
>>158842877
It's probably Elizabeth's Gaiden rather than his.
>>158849776
Elizabeth is not a sin. Mel's Gaiden will be a recap of Danafor, not about his life 3000 years ago.
>>158846845
So he's a man(female)?
I wonder why japs love this kind of love stories where lovers are forced to struggle in a cycle of death and rebirth.
Feels like Nakaba played in Xenogears.
>>158847054
But then why does Estarossa looks older?
>>158847920
They should reset her memories every year so she won't dies from memory overdose. Let's hope she won't escape to a city of science though.
>>158842498
Merlin seems to care about Mel a lot even if she doesn't show it often.
>>158851102
Well she was into him before Arthur, so there's that.
>>158849808
>Elizabeth is not a sin
Origin of the currently recognized Seven Deadly Sins ... translated into the Latin of Western Christianity (largely due to the writings of John Cassian).
1 Gula (gluttony)
2 Luxuria/Fornicatio (lust, fornication)
3 Avaritia (avarice/greed)
4 Superbia (pride, hubris)
5 Tristitia (sorrow/despair/despondency)
6 Ira (wrath)
7 Vanagloria (vainglory)
8 Acedia (sloth)
Elizabeth is Despair, the eigth Deadly Sin.
>>158850951
Nakaba said alongside DB, his greatest inspiration were Square RPGs. He even had a shared interview with Sakaguchi where he was fanboying over him the whole time. Chrono Trigger, FF9 and Xenogears were definietly in his head when he came up with NNT.
>>158851124
Merlin is into everyone not named Escanor.
>>158851228
this isn't proof, it's just an unrelated factoid
>>158851228
Nakaba isn't Kubo and Elizabeth isn't a criminal in Liones, so I doubt it.
>>158851228
Cool, I guess we'll get to see the flashback where Elizabeth gets arrested by her father at the age of six.
>>158851000
I bet next time we see him he will be a shota because he got hit with his own commandment after he got sunned by Escanor.
>>158842729
Fucken hell, what a sick page
>>158851318
Wonder if he played in Automata already.
Seems right up his alley with a combination of similar love story and younger boy/older girl pair.
>>158851441
She almost killed Bartra and her sister.
>>158852230
>She almost killed Bartra and her sister.
???
>>158853963
Bartra fell of a tree when he went after Eli. Veronica hurt her ankle. Elizabeth is evil as fuck. If her memories return and she doesn't die, the world is doomed.
>>158854101
lol
>only 7 pages long
Suffering.
Still better than Berscuck and OMRN x OMRN.
>>158854602
You do know it's just the spoiler pages and we will get the proper 20 page chapter later, right?
>>158843599
Why not? He has emotions now.
>>158854670
Actually no, I generally avoid spoiler threads, but this time I caved in.
Good to know, thanks.
Ok this will probably explain the supposed childhood memory loss Elizabeth had where she forgot Mel as a kid, she started remembering stuff back then
I love Elizabeth, she's so perfect.
>>158846719
>>158846845
The leader of the Goddess is confirmed to be female.
Ludociel may have been referring to the fourth Archangel, who we haven't seen yet.
>>158851441
Current Elizabeth isn't a criminal - but original Elizabeth was literally sleeping with the enemy.
>>158855527
Original Elizabeth died before Liones existed.
>>158855421
>the accursed traitor still has nothing better to do than post about his obsession over his goddess slut on 4chan
>>158855575
So? Neither Meliodas or Merlin were considered criminals by Liones when they founded the Sins. They considered themselves to be criminals. (And the Demons definitely think of Mel as a criminal - even if his dad see's him as a sort of prodigal son).
Why were the demons and the goddesses at war in the first place?
>>158855922
>Neither Meliodas or Merlin were considered criminals by Liones when they founded the Sins
Meliodas literally destroyed Danafor and Melin's gaiden is still unknown. He is the Sin of Wrath for destroying an entire state, you speedreader. The SDS are a formation under Liones, not just random guys calling themselves it. Bartra would never announce Elizabeth as a criminal for no reason.
>>158856332
Resources, according to Zeldris.
>>158856661
Go read the Zaratras flashback, they were free.
>>158857009
How does that change that Meliodas got his title because of his doings in Danafor and not 3000 years ago?
http://readms.net/r/sdssd/05/4372/1
>>158851228
That was an old list before the traditional seven was formulated. Tristitia was rolled into acedoa and vanagloria into superbia
Youll notice envy is missing for that matter
>>158857964
The art was pretty good this time, with some very nice panels. Seems the end is nigh though.
>>158855469
Could be, but since Japanese has no genders, so 'him' and 'her' are the same word, I guess translators just went with 'him' instead of 'them' because we didn't know much about the leader back then. It could be Mael too, but I guess the leader makes more sense, then an other archangel.
>>158857964
Elaine's face still looks weird sometimes. Like the eyes are aligned strange. Otherwise good.
>>158857964
Seven Days was a spin off novel at first, right? I wonder if we're getting a spin-off manga adaption of the other novel as well.
>>158851086
You would think they would have figured out a magic to deal with that.
Kind of a bummer that after this huge flashback arc, the first present fight will be the sins ganging up on mera, like nakaba, what?
>>158855677
This page gets me every time.
>suddenly they all appear from outta nowhere
>>158855677
This a sick page, Nakaba´s art can be pretty damn good.
>>158861294
What if Mera brought a few indura's from the Demon Realm?
Also I can see Mera betraying the 10C. Esta tried to kill her and she fears Escanor.
>>158861482
In that case wouldn´t her comandment activate on herself? You know, for losing faith on her kind and betraying them.
>>158861591
Her commandment is about just Faith in general, isn't it? If she has faith in Escanor, would it activate? We only ever see it activated on a random guy who was attacked by the corpse of his wife.
>>158851228
what's the fucking point of this you retard?
>>158862057
>there was an eighth sin, called Despair
>Despair fit Elizabeth's theme
>Elizabeth I had combat powers
>So what if Eli will be recognized as an offical member of the Sins later?
There. Wasn't that hard, right?
>>158862246
>let's put the princess officially into a group consisting of former criminals for absolutely no reason as princess > sin
Okk
>>158855677
Let Mel express himself. No bully.
>>158862342
She is pretty much already a non-offical member. And the Sins were always a highly respected group, even though they were made up of criminals. Some benfits would come too, mainly in the form of a Sacred Treasure.
>>158862595
>non-offical member.
Guess Threader, Hawk and Hawk Mama are the 9th, 10th and 11th sins.
>>158863506
Does Slader travel with the sins everywhere, too? Hawk and his mama are mascots.
>>158863987
>Does Slader travel with the sins everywhere, too?
No, but unlike Eli, Mel actually told him to replace the missing sins for a while.
>>158864095
And? Slader was basically a temporary sin, yes. And he didn't even have a sin. I'm not saying Eli is a sin NOW. I'm saying that if she gets back her powers, she might as well offically join the sins. She even commited a sin similiar to the others.
>>158864269
>And?
And what? Threader was mentioned in a sin context. Elizabeth never was.
>And he didn't even have a sin.
Neither does Elizabeth.
>She even commited a sin similiar to the others.
No she never did.
>>158864348
>similiar to the others.
Do you think Ban really burned down the forest and killed Elaine?
Or that Gowther really raped Nadja?
>>158864541
>implying
Do you think any event that made them a sin, happened before liones was even founded as it is with elizabeth?
>>158864580
The si were made to battle the 10C. That's way greater than Liones. Also other than Gowther, non of the sin's sins concern Liones directly. And I'm pretty sure Merlin's has even less to do with it, since she met Bartra the first time when he had the dream about the sins.
>>158864822
>The si were made to battle the 10C.
Yes and each of them commited a sin under liones' reign.
>Also other than Gowther, non of the sin's sins concern Liones directly.
Yet all of them are connected to Liones. Be it the old man in King's Gaiden, or Ban's trial, Diane getting involved with them or Danafor being Liones' ally.
>And I'm pretty sure Merlin's has even less to do with it,
Both merlin and escanor must have done something the king knows about otherwise they wouldn't be named as their respective sins.
>>158858659
>Seven Days
>ends in seven chapters
it's like pottery
>>158865025
>Be it the old man in King's Gaiden, or Ban's trial
The Fairy forest was every britannian kingdom's ally, not just Liones'. Probably the only reason why Liones did the trials was that they get there first (thanks to Bartra), or because they are the greatest power in the area. The 10C has nothing to do with Liones, assembling the sins was connected to Liones because Bartra, whose power they used, is the king of Liones. Expanding the sins doesn't have to be connected to Liones.
>>158865262
>The Fairy forest was every britannian kingdom's ally, not just Liones'. Probably the only reason why Liones did the trials was that they get there first (thanks to Bartra), or because they are the greatest power in the area.
So what? The Gaiden is still connected to Liones.
>The 10C has nothing to do with Liones
Except they are the archenemy of Liones Seven Deadly Sins Kinght Order.
>assembling the sins was connected to Liones because Bartra, whose power they used, is the king of Liones.
And because Meliodas was quite literally working for him.
>Expanding the sins doesn't have to be connected to Liones.
Expanding the sins doesn't have to be a thing at all.
>>158865383
>So what? The Gaiden is still connected to Liones.
And does that mean your sin has to be connected to Liones to be a sin? What if one of them dies and need to be rplaced? They go look for a random dude in the prison, when Arthur is available?
>Except they are the archenemy of Liones Seven Deadly Sins Kinght Order.
That's backwards thinking. The 10C and Mel existed way before Liones.
>And because Meliodas was quite literally working for him.
Yeah, that too. But Meliodas also has his own goals, which are greater than his work for Bartra. You know, 10C, DK and curses.
>Expanding the sins doesn't have to be a thing at all.
It doesn't have to be. I'm just saying that Despair was considered a sin at a point in time, and this actually fit's Elizabeth's theme.
>>158865747
>And does that mean your sin has to be connected to Liones to be a sin?
Yes, seeing how Meliodas' Danafor sin was counted and not his original one.
>What if one of them dies and need to be rplaced?
That will nevr happen seeing how Bartra predicted that the current order will defeat the TC.
>That's backwards thinking. The 10C and Mel existed way before Liones.
And the SDS after, as a unit belonging to Liones.
>>158865917
>Yes, seeing how Meliodas' Danafor sin was counted and not his original one.
If Merlin's or Escanor's sin turns out to be not connected to Liones, will you not consider them Sins? Also starting the war 3000 years ago affects the Liones of today too. That's as close to Liones as Ban's or King's.
>That will nevr happen
Of course, it's a shounen. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't think logically.
>And the SDS after, as a unit belonging to Liones.
And Mel existed before Liones. The 10C didn't even took the sins seriously, oly Mel mattered to them.
Elizabeth is not a Sin you retarded Elizabethfag.
>>158866232
>If Merlin's or Escanor's sin turns out to be not connected to Liones, will you not consider them Sins?
Why would it happen when all other 5 until now are?
>Also starting the war 3000 years ago affects the Liones of today too.
That's retarded and completely misses the point of the discussion.
>But that doesn't mean you shouldn't think logically.
You're the one using fanfics of them dying to get your point across.
>And Mel existed before Liones.
So what? Mel isn't the King nor is the SDS not part of the Liones knights.
>The 10C didn't even took the sins seriously, oly Mel mattered to them.
Except when Escanor and co embarrassed them.
>Series is called Nanatsu no Taizai
>I think they are Hachitsu no Taizai
wew lad
>>158866440
>Why would it happen when all other 5 until now are?
Only Gowther's is directly connected.
>That's retarded and completely misses the point of the discussion.
How does burning down the Forest directly relates to Liones?
>You're the one using fanfics of them dying to get your point across.
I did say I don't see them dying. I just asked you to think.
>So what? Mel isn't the King nor is the SDS not part of the Liones knights.
The SDS are pretty much their own thing now. Did Bartra order them to save Camelot? Actually, ever since their fake betrayal, they are not really Liones knights.
>Except when Escanor and co embarrassed them.
I did use part tense because of Escanor. Look at this way: Mel's personal goal is defeating the 10C. The SDS's goal, as a group, to defeat the 10C, but the individual member's main goal is different. Liones and Bartra are more like a tool for Mel to achive his goals then a boss.
>>158866365
>>158866754
At least read before you post. And it wouldn't be the first time with a numbered group having more members then it's numbers. Actually Japan loves that.
>>158866754
>Hachitsu
Its yattsu.
>>158867013
>Only Gowther's is directly connected.
No, I already explained to you how the others were connected.
>How does burning down the Forest directly relates to Liones?
How does it not, when Ban is judged by them and damaged the fairy-human relationship once gain?
>The SDS are pretty much their own thing now.
Did Bartra order them to save Camelot?
If the Seven Deadly Sins stopped being affilitated with the King, the story would be much different after Hendrickson's defeat.
>Mel's personal goal is defeating the 10C. The SDS's goal, as a group, to defeat the 10C, but the individual member's main goal is different. Liones and Bartra are more like a tool for Mel to achive his goals then a boss.
You could say the exact same thing about Bartra supporting them to make tools for his cause, what are you on about?
>>158867013
>And it wouldn't be the first time with a numbered group having more members then it's numbers. Actually Japan loves that.
Guess Naruto was actually about Boruto. One Piece is actually about a Two Piece. Bleach is actually about Suicide and Black Clover about a White Clover. Fairy Tail is actually about Saberthooth and The Promised Neverland about nothing at all.
NnT is literally the title. They will never have more members.
>>158867233
>fairy-human
Not fairy Liones. He was judged by Liones because they got to Ban first. That was when Hendy found the demon too.
But we shoud drop this point anyway. You say you have to have a sin connected to Liones in order to be a sin, and I can't fully agree. We presented our arguments on this point and didn't convince the other. Any more would be running in circles.
>If the Seven Deadly Sins stopped being affilitated with the King, the story would be much different after Hendrickson's defeat.
I'm not saying they wouldn't help Bartra anymore, but they clearly don't take orders from him anymore.
>what are you on about?
In short: importance of mission: Mel > Bartra, which means when deciding who gets to join the sins, Mel's word is over Bartra's.
>>158867332
>Naruto was actually about Boruto
You know Sasuke was pretty much secondary MC and his name wasn't in the title.
>Bleach is actually about Suicide
The reader's.
>Fairy Tail, Promised Neverland
How are they numbered, though?
