#Zeldrus

"Demons eat dragon!?" Gilthunder blinked at them in confusion before shrugging and guiding them to the hunting lands. He didn't remember his idol eating dragon but then again... he didn't exactly kno2 Meliodas was a demon either. Actually nobody seemed to have known, not even the Sins, so that's new.

Estarossa snickered at the lines on Zeldrus' face as they passed,

"He sure got you good there, brother."

Zeldris glared at his brother before frowning. Really he deserved those scratches, reacting in anger like that when Meliodas hadn't known him, and he felt immensely guilty about it. He felt guilty about the way he handled that interaction for a lot of reasons... perhaps if they'd been released sooner his brother wouldn't be a shell of his former self.

The Commandments hunted maby dragons and, while disappointing st the quality of meat, brought back plenty for Straw when he woke and explained to the castle cooks and apparently Ban as well, what the demon diet consist3d of.

"CAP'N HAS BEEN EATONG LESS THAN HIS FILL THIS WHOLE TIME!?"

Ban was very upset to learn of Straw (and Meliodas') dietary needs not being met. King was giving him pointed looks th3 moment he found out.

"'Don't worry too much, King. He'll tell us I'd something is wrong, King.'" The fairy mocked, "I told you we should be worried!"

Ban shoved the fairy in retaliation.

When Straw woke up sometime in the evening, he was presented with a whole banquet of dragon meat, perfect for his growling stomach.

The Commandments were also in the same room, undoubtedly expecting him and wanting to discuss things further.

Another deep growl from Straws stomach made it clear though that food came first and Zeldris and Estarossa had already agreed that they weren't gonna let their eldest brother go before he had eaten enough.

Rhetorical Ink Reviews: Seven Deadly Sins, Season Two/Three

** SINFUL SPOILERS BELOW **

My younger brother and I continue our journey with “sibling streaming” and watching the Seven Deadly Sins. My brother convinced me to skip the four OVA’s that Netflix refers to as “season two,” because he said they were mostly filler, and knows I’m not a fan of filler anime. So, with that said, we dived into the next season! Here are -- 

My Top Ten Thoughts on Seven Deadly Sins, Season Two Three: 

10. Okay, so right off the bat -- if you had told me Hendrickson, the main villain of our last season, was immediately going to be back in the show, AND turn heel and join forces with the SDS and Holy Knights AND be a relevant part of the show...I would not have believed you. It’s one of the aspects about the season I do enjoy -- little surprises like that. I also like, despite being confused as to how it happened, that Hendrickson is placed in charge of Dreyfus’s son, who’s mysteriously reverted to a child-like state. It’s a nice visual and connection for those two characters, especially since Dreyfus has been possessed and unleashed arguably the best part of the season:

9. The Ten Commandments. I find it interesting that normally anime pit player vs player on even terms; though here, its 10 vs 7 really. I am a big fan of the weird designs of these characters. I’m not a fan of “little miss resurrection” above, but her plot line does lead to some interesting moments (detailed below), but I DO get a HUGE laugh out of her being charred for a short period when she returns later on in the season. It was a very satisfying moment. 

In terms of my favorites, the pairs of Estarossa and Zeldrus are very cool, especially being Meliodas’s “brothers,” but probably my favorite duo is the Jesse/James “Team Rocket” equivalent that is Monspeet and Derieri. Monspeet’s suaveness is sooo deliciously villainous, especially in contrast to his counterpart’s aggressiveness. The group proves to be menacing as a whole and a nice villainous “squad” to take on our  SDS group.

8. Ban’s utter devotion and love for Elaine has been one of my favorites in the series, and this second season has really upped the ante for how much I love their characters. King’s return to the Fairy Kingdom and Ban’s protection of Elaine was beautiful, and then we have “little miss resurrection” trying to revive Elaine and use her against Ban -- and yet, their love triumphed. It was so sweet to see them back together, and I appreciate that the anime, especially being a Shonen, lets them kiss and be a couple. 

Of course, it all comes to a head when to save his best friend from losing his soul, Ban has to basically sacrifice the faux-revived love of his life. He vows to get her revived permanently, though, and I think I’m with the fandom in that I want this to happen so bad. If there’s any couple I root for in this show...it’s Ban x Elaine...well, them and: 

7. Uh, yeah, so I hardcore love Diane and King in this show. I love how King’s character has gone from being a snot-nosed brat the first time we meet him to actually revealing his utter love of his friends and family. Diane and his relationship is SO SWEET and it’s been heartbreaking this season with all of the near-misses and moments where you think they’re going to be together, only for it to be completely upended. Besides Ban and Elaine, I’m really hoping these two characters can end up together. I mean, Merlin’s magic has made it to where Diane can be “human sized,” so why wouldn’t it work?! I love, though, that King loves Diane for who she is as a person, not by any definition of her physical self, similar to Ban’s love for Elaine. Maybe that’s why I ship them so hard, because the parameters of their relationship are so similar. 

6. Oh, hey, remember in Season One, when I said Gowther was one of my favorites of the Seven Deadly Sins? Yeah, he was...until he basically wiped the memories of Diane (HOW DARE HE) and Gila’s little brother, and on multiple occasions nearly ruined the entire plot.

I love that Gowther’s character, along with Meliodas, turn out to be two former Commandments -- it makes sense with Meliodas being of the demon race himself, and Gowther’s basically a puppet, so of course he’s going to be on whatever side is controlling him more. Gowther is such a neutral, chaotic character -- but in the quietest, most subtle way possible. It’s something we don’t normally see, to see the chaos from a character being created in such a simple, cool fashion. Still, Gowther...you got some catching up to do before you’re back in my good graces after all the havoc you brought this season!

5. Then we have Escanor and Estarossa -- two seemingly invincible forces. I feel there’s going to be more with Estarossa in the next season, so I’ll wait to talk about him, but Escanor is both delightful and OP as all get out -- at least, when it’s noon, he’s nigh invincible. I love his little doting crush on Merlin -- two of the most powerful SDS’s, though they aren’t quite a couple like Ban x Elaine, Diane x King, or Meliodas x Elizabeth.

Still, it was impressive to see Escanor hold his own against Estarossa...rematch?

4. Speaking of couples, I would be remiss to not talk about Meliodas and Elizabeth. Yes, Meliodas is still sticking his head where it doesn’t belong...except, now we know he’s a demon...so I guess...that...excuses it points to why he’s like that? At least we get more of his backstory and of COURSE Elizabeth is a reincarnated goddess child that he keeps encountering and falling in love with...I’d say their coupledom is the most “creepy” to me, since he’s watched her since she was a kid...then again, she keeps reincarnating...so....what do we do with that?

I at least still like the angel and demon motif that’s set up between them.

3. Honestly, Meliodas’s confrontation with the Ten Commandments and then his later fight against Zeldras and the demon possessing Dreyfus were two of my favorite parts of this season -- I like that we’re seeing the always confident and smooth Meliodas literally confront his demons, and FINALLY, we get some confirmation that each time he’s brought back to life -- he’s cursed with immortality, kind of like Ban only worse -- he loses more and more of his compassion and “human-like” self and regresses back to his former demon state. 

It’s an interesting twist, and one that I’m really glad the show made at the end of the season; the tension between Meliodas, Gowther, and the other SDS’s definitely made me want to see where it goes next season!

2. Oh, by the way, if you told me that I’d be ROOTING for Hendrickson at the end of season one, I would have said you were crazy. Yet, somehow, I was. I am honestly amazed that they took a main antagonist and did a complete 180 with him...and it worked.

What also worked VERY well was the moment that the demon Fraudrin, once separated from his host Dreyfus, realized that he was actually upset that Griamore wasn’t recognizing him as his father anymore, since he’d “played” the part for ten years. That scene was incredibly well done, and I actually felt sorry for the demon...of course, Meliodas ended up wiping him away, but it was one of the more well-executed (no pun intended) scenes in the season, and a great lead to the climax. 

1. All in all, this season had higher highs than the last, especially towards the last three to four episodes, which I thought the last two were the best of the series so far.

That said, I still have problems with the show: It takes sometimes FAR too long to explain certain plot points -- nearly half a season later -- and some of the reveals seem a little forced or weakly explained. 

My main critique is that no one’s death really feels “final.” Heck, Gustav, Jericho’s brother, was one of the only characters that legitimately died in the show so far that we’ve spent any time with. Yes, I know a lot of people, my brother included, were sad that Zhivago, Ban’s “Father” died, but I couldn’t find it as emotional because we spent so little time and buildup with him. It’s probably my only major concern with the show and getting invested, but I do still enjoy the characters and am curious to see what they will do in the season to come. 

So, with Season Four about to be released on Netflix, it seems like good timing that I started catching up with this series!

 Despite my frustrations with the series at time, the characters and their shenanigans do make me want to come back and see what happens to them! I’m sure it’s only going to get zanier from here -- let’s hope, anyway!

For the meme thing one of them said that meliodas was an abusier was that in reference to how he treated zeldris or something else and if it was because of that what are you reasons for saying that I’m genuinely curious

Hi, yes of course I’ll answer this, but I’ll quickly say that if anyone didn’t act then it is fine, this is my own interpretation.

Abuse can come in many shapes and forms but I think that by far meliodas was verbally abusive, we even see a moment where zeldris walks up to him to talk where the mere look In Meliodas’s eye makes zeldris shit up, meliodas also admit that he did these things on purpose because he was too tired to talk or care for zeldris and therefor the only thing he could ever do for zeldris was reach him How to wield a sword, and even then we see a single panel in the manga where meliodas is in the action of hitting zeldris.

And while i know there is not much demon brother content to base this on I can’t at all imagine that this wasn’t a daily assurance.

While I am sure meliodas didnt intent to reflect his fathers abuse into zeldris in think that’s just eat he did, and although we see him regret it there are many signs that zeldris hasn’t gotten over the way his brother treated him.

#some might also just call it neglect #which it also is #but I would personally call this abuse #mostly verbally #he literally made zeldrus feel like he was all alone #that nobody loved him #nanatsu no taizai #nnt #seven deadly sins #sds #the seven deadly sins #zeldris #meliodas #ask #anon

Meliodas how often does Zeldris visit you in the castle and do you have sleepovers a lot?

Meliodas

It depends a lot.

Zeldrus and Gelda dont process time me and Elizabeth do, And thats because they reside in the demon realm.

Sometimes they come with 1 Monty in between, sometimes it’s 7.... there was even one time when I didn’t see him in 1 and a half year. But when they come they stay a while, like... they can stay up to a month.

We sleep in different rooms but we do have a lot of fun before going to bed *whispers* sometimes we don’t go to bed at all.

It just generally a good time

Hey meliodas, What was your reaction towards zeldris when he was a baby and what was your mom like?

Meliodas

Unfortunately I was very indifferent, I was there in his little room only because I had to...but then he started gurgling and reached out for me. Despite not acting any different I must admit that I felt a tug inside of me, back then I Of course had no idea it was due to my love towards him....

Now...for my mother, you see, I don’t revenge her that well...my mother was murdered by my father right before my eyes shortly after zeldrus was born...professionals ice talked to later in love has told me that that experience made my brain cut off all fire and memories regarding her, kind of like “you can’t miss what you never had”

But I do remember a few this...I remember her voice although it’s faint, as if it’s far away, and I remebfer the feeling of being safe when I was with her... but that is all

#meliodas thanks you for your ask #nanatsu no taizai #nnt
