The 16th issue of Weekly Shounen Magazine of 2020 announced on Wednesday that Nakaba Suzuki's Nanatsu no Taizai (The Seven Deadly Sins) manga series will conclude in the next issue. The manga will end its seven and a half year run in the 17th issue on March 25.

Suzuki began serializing the adventure fantasy manga in Weekly Shounen Magazine in October 2012. Kodansha published the 40th and latest volume (pictured) on February 17. Nanatsu no Taizai has a cumulative 33 million copies of its compiled volumes in print.

A-1 Pictures adapted the manga into a 24-episode television anime in Fall 2014, which was followed by a four-episode television special titled Nanatsu no Taizai: Seisen no Shirushi (The Seven Deadly Sins: Signs of Holy War) in Summer 2016. The second television anime season, Nanatsu no Taizai: Imashime no Fukkatsu (The Seven Deadly Sins: Revival of the Commandments), premiered in Winter 2018.

The Nanatsu no Taizai: Tenkuu no Torawarebito (The Seven Deadly Sins: Prisoners of the Sky) anime film opened in Japan in August 2018. Nanatsu no Taizai: Kamigami no Gekirin (The Seven Deadly Sins: Wrath of the Gods), the third season produced by Studio Deen, began airing in Fall 2019.

Netflix acquired exclusive streaming rights for the anime and released each broadcast installment after they had finished airing. Funimation licensed the anime for home video release and shipped first anime season in two Blu-ray and DVD volumes in May and June 2017.

Kodansha Comics licensed the manga in English in 2013 and published the 37th volume on March 24.

finally. about time. been waiting for this manga to end. nakaba's been milking this series for too long instead of letting it end a year ago. the final arc is a dumpster fire.
nanatsu no taizai is the perfect example for a great series turned into complete crap. i still remember when this series used to be really good. very sad and disappointed with how it's going out.
welp nakaba can finally rest now, that he has achieved his freedom, and plan for his next series :)

You're wrong, the sparks have already started 3 years ago, should have ended it at that point.

Should have ended long ago. This is one of the worst endings I've ever experienced, such a shame because I used to really like SDS.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

As an anime-only, I have no comments regarding the final chapters. But if the third season is anything to go by, then I can't help but sigh. I used to really like this show, y'know ;-;

Everything about Season 3 is poor after all, story and plot-wise included alongside the obvious animation flops of course.

So can someone spoil it if Diane x King and Ban x Elaine had a good ending? I'm rooting for these guys.

At last this anime ends. Without offending but nanatsu no taizai is one of the worst shonen that exists has been declining since its second season came out so there are no surprises with this last season.

It's been a ride, but it was about time. I honestly thought they should have ended it a bit earlier considering that the final boss was very underwhelming (at least in my opinion). Can't say I didn't cry at the latest chapters though.. Thanks for the journey, it's been a good one!

I remember having this manga in my favourites three years ago. What a disaster... I think that's the worst shounen manga I have ever read.

Damn, I heard stories but can someone enlighten me on why it's considered so bad? What happened to the story? (Anime-only here but I'm okay with spoilers)

The manga was just really poorly adapted.

Wait, you mean you don't like Kaidou flying drunk for 22 minutes?

Total off topic aside, this show has really hit a meh area for me since halfway through S2. Used to be one of my favorites. It's really a shame what has been happening.
For manga readers, can you explain exactly what is wrong with the later chapters?

The final battle was horrendously dragged out by dozens of asspulls and deus ex machinas--every time we thought it was going to end, something else popped up out of nowhere to extend it.


It's so much worse than Naruto's ending.

Based on the name Tristan & Lancelot, i believe they will serve arthur in the next chapter.

Well maybe you all already know, 7 Deadly Sins based on 13 knights of the round table.

I hope the ending not bad for us.
