I watched the DopeSub version and the translation was meh, someone seriously needs to properly translate this show.
Really good first episode, can't wait to see where this is going :)

DopeSubs is subbing episode wrong it seems. any better subs anywhere?
Going to be aired only with 24 episodes worth? that is not going to last to current battle arc in manga.

So Last Sin's name...Lion Sin of (?) name is Escanor huh? I wonder where he is.

So far it followed 1st chapter perfectly. liking this anime already. Love how Meliodas was at the beginning of the show pretty much awesome, Strong pervert. Towards Single Woman's tough.

LOVED how Meliodas and Hawk Screwed with those knights. Great Start to great series Anime version.
Opening was great too!!! We are so going at least see Diana, Ban and King Arcs. well there is going to be at least 2nd opening....so most likely Gowther arc is also going to be seen. I think

Such good. Very nice.

The art is right up my ally. Everything is very clean, and it's clear they had quite the budget. But.. What is it with making tiny characters and adding 100 pounds of muscle on them when they're shirtless? It's so nasty.. Seems to be a trend in anime and really not a fan.

Voice acting is also A+++, in my opinion. I really loved all the voices, and how they conveyed emotions. 0 complaints here.

My only negative would be that the story seems to be aimed at a younger audience but oh well. The boob grabs are also a mood ruin-er.

EDIT: After reading the comments I see a lot of people complaining about subs. Y'all do know KissAnime exists.. right? The first episode was posted (subbed) on October 5th and they are very good at getting subs up ASAP. Since this seems to be a popular series the subs will most likely always be released same day, second day at the latest.

It was a very good episode. Meliodas fondled Elizabeth's breasts and Elizabeth did not mind about it.

Meliodas was so badass.

For all of you that found DopeSubs to be not that dope (or maybe extra dopey?), Chyuu is also subbing it.

Anyway, I'm hooked. This was a great first episode! The house on the pig's back reminded me of Howl's castle.

Great first episode!

I loved the soundtrack so much. The animation reminds me a bit of the old-school DBZ stuff, but at the same time has it's own flair. As a big fan of the manga, I say they adapted this episode very well. I'm surprised that they green-lit 24 episodes for this from the off, but I sure as heck ain't complaining!

Love how Melodias never avoids contact with Elisabeth's erm... "Plot" ... we're gonna be seeing a tonne of that every episode ;)

I can't wait till Ban and King show up, and Gowther and Daina too!

yeah i realize that, but why not just make him look like he should? what does making him a kid add to the story? because the only reason i can think of is that it's to appeal to younger kids more (unless something is revealed later on, story-wise).

don't get me wrong, i really liked this first ep. but i think i'd like it a lot more if he wasn't some midget kid and instead an adult badass. and it would make more sense too. just my opinion i guess

It was ok. Thought I was gonna hate the art a lot, but it wasn't that bad.

Sawano soundtrack was good.

Didn't read the manga, so basically watching for main girl's "plot" right now.

The series is generic anyways. That's all you need to know. He's also a generic main character again. Tired of seeing these happy face main characters. We already have enough of them already. I'll say it again, fairy tale 2.0 people.

All these mangaka are taking the easy way, but I guess the easy way is where the money is at, and also has the bigger appeal.

How about waiting until NnT has an overabundance of mostly unlikeable characters, unreasonable friendship-powerups and never changing arc-structures for year after year before calling it Fairy Tail 2.0?
Because that would actually make sense.

4/5

Despite having a Character Design, not to my taste, I found this anime so attractive looking so vintage, from starting it, not bad, it makes me go back to the old days.
The only flaw, the GC mom Hawk!
The rest is perfect, well-crafted design, atmosphere and animations from old fantasy shonen more than good.
I look forward to the next installment.
The initial rating is 6/10!

Some of you dimmits comparing this to that godawful Fairy Tail series. They aren't alike other than being both Shonen. Manga is great with awesome OP characters both the good and evil characters. Love it.

As for the anime, it was pretty good introduction.

I love the vivid art style, which looks impressively close to the manga. Also digging the soundtrack based on what we've heard this episode.

Meliodas voice isn't a good fit, though. And Hawk's voice was... surprising at least, but works fine.

Off to a good start.

Ahh, this was a lot of fun! Definitely my go-to shonen of the season, unlike the disappointment that was World Trigger. I've been waiting to watch this one(and I've heard good things about the manga), so I'm glad it didn't disappoint.

So how many episodes until this starts deviating from the manga and visuals go to shit? 5? 8?
Hopefully it doesn't but given past A-1 shounen experiences I can't help but be cynical.


Don't like these characters at all but I will be looking forward to the other sins.

Well, I must say that I liked that first episode. It look goofy, with a bit of a serious background, some lighthearted animation and humor. I think that it will be a fun ride.

The main look like a very fun champ. I wonder why they are all chibi, because I asume that the other people in the ED are others Deadly Sins.

I guess we can already say that the reason those knight rebelled is because of that ''conspiracy'' the girl was talking about.

Hawk sticks out like a sore thumb Jesus Christ.

Decent first episode.

Mel was pretty fucking badass.

Elizabeth's got some very nice titties.

The OP was just average disappointingly though.

but an OK episode for 1st episode

but the BGM composer is Sawano Hiroyuki. (That's why it sounds so epic XD)

Your opinion. I really like Akame ga Kill. I look forward to it every week.


They are similiar, but the direction here is smoother. Maybe this will be more plot focused and have better pacing *fingers crossed*
