Nanatsu no Taizai

Well, if I recall things correctly, his commandment is 9th among the 10. So if his power is in proportion to that...

Well, he may be arrogant during the day, but I'm sure he was okay during the day time so long as no one tried to fight him. And his power grows a lot until he peaks at noon... so considering he obliterated the vampire king who was somewhere north of 4,800 in power level while only barely peaking, then it wouldn't surprise me if Escanor could fight one of the TCs on relatively equal footing.

New chapter is out. Turns out it was speculated correctly that Gowther modified Galan's perspective into thinking he killed the Sins and Threader but they still suffered hefty wounds. Merlin's out of action for a while since her body is still petrified but she can still communicate through her Sacred Treasure and having Gideon kicked back into her head probably gave Diane amnesia since she doesn't recognize King.

We'll be getting a training arc but the story's gone on long enough without one so I am fine with it. While the Sins didn't go unchallenged before the Ten Commandments were unsealed, they (The Ten Commandments) are from a time where war was all that each major race knew.

I don't doubt that Elizabeth is the reincarnation of Liz.

Yeah... still, Galan wrecked them damn hard for them to have to undergo training now.

Well, I wasn't denying that. He's a monster even by demon standards but it was fortunate the killing blows were just an illusion. If Gowther wasn't there, they probably would've really died.

King came back but I wonder if Ban will return as well. Also, since Elizabeth is going to undergo the training and she's likely the reincarnation of Liz, I wonder ig she'll start fighting like her.

Too true.

Probably. He doesn't plan on being the Fairy King, after all and with the TC running around, looking for a way to revive Elaine wouldn't be too practical. And as for her, I can't quite say. At any rate, she'll most likely learn how to channel her power.

So Diane's memory loss is a combination of being struck on the head and Gowther's Lost World spell. She mentioned the name 'Matrona' as she was running back; maybe getting hit on the head and the spell resetting her mind unlocked something in her mind she had forgotten about? The closing text also mentions demons are attacking the giants' home. Hopefully the other giants will be as strong as Diane.

Seems that way. Honestly, it's amazing how things are going now.

Also, notice how out of all the sins, Gowther is the only one that lives up to the whole 'being made up of the worst criminals' thing surrounding the formation of the Sins?

Gowther's indeed acting more 'sinful' than the others. Fortunately Merlin has him restrained with that bracelet but who knows how long that'll last.

Saw some color pages of the gaiden and according to the translators, Matrona is the leader of the giant clan. The gaiden will also be a two parter.

Mhm. Especially since he's still just as emotionless as ever.

I see. And we'll be seeing Matrona in the coming chapters as well...

Read the first part of the gaiden yet? Matrona might look hot but her heart is cold. I don't blame Diane for punching her.

Yep. But at the same time, Diane must still really respect her considering she used her name as an alias back during that tournament arc.

I made an error in my last post but I can't edit it now. I mixed up how Diane had to pass through Edinburgh where the Ten Commandments are to get to Megadozer by thinking the demons were attacking Megadozer when their location was just on the way.

Anyways, I am glad the new chapter is out. Galan doesn't realize his mind was toyed with and Diane's memory loss saved her from being petrified by him. She still can't get a hit on him but it turns out Matrona is still alive and she intervened just in time.

Yeah though I wonder how that is possible given her injuries at the time of her supposed death.

The color spread for the new chapter is pretty sweet. Galan's green armor makes him look even more like an Evangelion, Derriere's (Funny name choice considering her verbal tic) orange hair matches her wild appearance, the other soul eating girl's pink hair and leg stockings fit her youthful look, Zeldris wears red instead of black like I thought he would, and the light green tentacles make the other demon girl look like Cthulhu's daughter. Estarossa's gray hair I didn't see coming at all since he resembled Meliodas so much.

For some reason, Matrona knocked out Diane without saying a word. Luckily her earth manipulation got them away from Galan's onslaught although he got a few nicks on her. It was also amusing how Monspiet's Purgatory Flame Bird went so far and did so much destruction in its path only to be eaten by Hawk Mama!

So Meliodas's power that Merlin took is in the land of the Druids. I can't imagine they'll be happy to see him.

To be fair, time was of the essence since Galan broke free of the rock prison on the next page. Diane was in no condition to be doing much fighting so it'd make sense to KO her and run for it.

Which only raise the question on how she is okay after swallowing such a destructive attack.

Oh yeah, but I guess we'll soon be seeing Meliodas at full power.

King and Mel are having a rift brewing between them. King does have a bad habit of jumping to conclusions so he really needs to get a hold of himself or he'll keep straining his relations with the other Sins.

Yeah. What makes it more frustrating is that King has known Meliodas now for at least a decade or so and yet he is so quick to judge Meliodas now based on the fact he's a demon. Never mind that if Meliodas had truly intended to do any harm, he'd have done it years ago back when he still had his full power available to him.

Yeah, King's attitude is really agitating. Meliodas's question to him also makes you wonder if he's even a full blooded fairy.

Wow, Meliodas getting his power back was practically a natural disaster!

King was definately way out of line, but I love how Meliodas wasn't rattled in the least.

Attitude was kind of like "Kings just being King".

Agreed. Wonder what his power level is now that he's got it all back. And on a similar note, just how will the others grow in power? As for King's lack of wings, I think it means that he's yet to fully develop his abilities. So when he obtains his wings, his power will likely increase to a level where he can go against the TC.

I suppose it's fitting given his child-like appearance that he'd act rather childish in a sense.
