Nanatsu no taizai

Sate Sate Sate...

A shounen full of loli and explosions.

In the first three seasons, this anime was not too bad. It definitely presented itself as a typical shounen anime. However, many characters had great charms, making the show refreshing enough to be fun. The characters were not bad either, especially the side characters. I liked Ban the most with his touching and sad backstory that I can feel for. Other sinners like Diane and King were pretty good also.

However, about season 4 until the end, the story became messy with mostly crazy strong characters one up each other and explode stuff. Then season 5, the last season came and the series just became silly. The second half of the last season was completely pointless and random. With its big array of characters, many were out of place and should not be in the series in the first place. The most annoying character of all was the pink pig Hawk, with its sole purpose of being useless and screaming throughout.

The animation in an anime usually should not be a detrimental aspect to the judgement of the whole series, but in this instance it is. I cannot take the show seriously as everything looked like kid toys and angry children.

Overall, it was painful watching the later end of the series. Rating of each season: 7/10, 6/10, 7/10, 6/10, 4/10. As a whole, 5.5/10.

Beautiful first 3 seasons, both in cinematics and the progressive evolution of the story, one piece at a time. Character presentation is the best point of the series, together with battle cinematics.

4th season is absolutely to forget, terrible with obscene drawings and pointless developements in the story.

Last season got better with drawings but still levels under the first 3. Storytelling is quite good this time but the ending turnt out to me pretty hurried and banal.

I loved the show! ...until the last two seasons.

I binged the first three seasons in a week! The animation was great, loved the story and the characters (except the pig).

Season four was OK. Liked some of it, but it wasn't great. But it's WAY BETTER THAN SEASON FIVE!!!

Season five is bad. Really bad. I'm disappointed. The animation by this point is also not good... at all.. I had to skip to the last episode, because it was incredibly boring and I wanted to se how it all ended.

Would recommend the first three seasons, because they are great! Maybe the 4th too. But it was such a waist waiting for the last season.

Would give 8/10, but season five happened...

A great and fun action anime. I like the second opening of this season 1. I like the characters, the animation and the action sequences. I suggest 14 and up. If mature enough 12 and up. The English dub is pretty good for the most part. If you like shonen anime, give it a shot.

The anime is fantastic, the start is a bit strange at first, but you would love it later. The story is one of the best i have seen. The animation is decent. The thing i love most about it is the characters. Everyone of them is so special and different (especially the Main character). If you want a postitive anime with a great story, awesome fights and adventures, and last but not least funny moments, than thats what you are looking for.
