The seven deadly sins is an epic fantasy anime that revolves around a band of seven knights each named after the seven sins- wrath, pride, gluttony, Greed, Envy, Lust and sloth . Adapted from Nakaba Suzuki's manga of the same name, the anime has a medieval setting in a world of magic, mythological creatures and adventure . It kicks off with the third princess of lioness Elizabeth searching for the seven deadly sins to return order to the kingdom years after disbanding and on the run due to being falsely accused of plotting a coup to overthrow the monarch.
Princess Elizabeth eventually runs into meliodas , a simple tavern owner who makes terrible meals but is actually the leader of the seven deadly sins. After saving her from knights who were trying to return her back to the kingdom, Meliodas ( the dragon sin of wrath) decides to reunite the group once more setting off to bring back Ban ( the fox sin of greed) an immortal who chose to stay in prison, Harlequin the fairy king ( sin of sloth ) who blames Ban for the death of his sister Elaine, Diane the giant, Merlin the mage, Gowther whose unusual character is completely different from the human nature. After a series of adventures the knights restore order to Liones, defeating the corrupt grand master Hendrickson who is responsible for the coup to overthrow the kingdom. They also learn that Hendrickson was working with demonic powers which pose a threat to the kingdom.
The story progresses with the battle between good and evil within liones just beginning. It turns out that the cause of the conflict within the kingdom was just a plan to awaken the seal on the ten commandments, an elite group of demons from the demon clan led by Zeldris Meliodas younger brother to reignite the Holy war( a war between the celestials, demons, humans, giants and fairies). The group of knights soon learn that Meliodas was once the leader of the ten commandments but betrays the band to protect the human race.
They search for Escanor who is the final member of the sins and arguably the strongest to assist take down the commandments. it is later discovered that Elizabeth is also a member of the angel clan but was cursed together with Meliodas by both leaders of their clan for falling in love. The story has a romantic undertone of Meliodas trying to break that curse that plagues him from being with the woman he loves after she has died countless times in his arms and also end the Holy war permanently with plans of absorbing the Demon King's power which ends up turning him into a tyrant.
The fourth and final season kicks off with the sins trying save Meliodas from the Demon King's influence. They face off with Meliodas in the demon king form and after a heated battle they are able to weaken the demon King's influence saving Meliodas from his country. With Meliodas finally, the sins work together to defeat the evil Demon king, break the curse set on the two lovers, end the war completely and restoring peace to all of Britannia. The series ends with the sins going their separate way, Escanor dead after he sacrificed himself to protect everyone and the two lovers ( Meliodas and Elizabeth) getting married and eventually becoming rulers of the kingdom.
The anime has low romantic tones with the love stories of Meliodas and Elizabeth, Ban and Elaine, King and Diane contributing and adding depth to the plot.
