The Seven Deadly Sins

This show starts off pretty slow for a couple of episodes as it sort of staggers when all the main characters start showing up. The show is very good. The music is amazing, and always changes every few episodes, while keeping the same feeling. The characters are extremely memorable, they all are different aspects of the 7 deadly sins, and thus creating very differing and interesting dynamics between the characters. The story, while sometimes admittedly cheesy, is extremely good and has lots of meaning to it. I was severely depressed before watching this show, but this show really portrayed the beauty of life, the grimness, and the silliness all in a perfect balance that really keeps things interesting throughout every single episode. I would highly recommend giving this show a watch, it's truly something special.

Beautiful first 3 seasons, both in cinematics and the progressive evolution of the story, one piece at a time. Character presentation is the best point of the series, together with battle cinematics.

4th season is absolutely to forget, terrible with obscene drawings and pointless developements in the story.

Last season got better with drawings but still levels under the first 3. Storytelling is quite good this time but the ending turnt out to me pretty hurried and banal.

A great and fun action anime. I like the second opening of this season 1. I like the characters, the animation and the action sequences. I suggest 14 and up. If mature enough 12 and up. The English dub is pretty good for the most part. If you like shonen anime, give it a shot.

Sate Sate Sate...

A shounen full of loli and explosions.

In the first three seasons, this anime was not too bad. It definitely presented itself as a typical shounen anime. However, many characters had great charms, making the show refreshing enough to be fun. The characters were not bad either, especially the side characters. I liked Ban the most with his touching and sad backstory that I can feel for. Other sinners like Diane and King were pretty good also.

However, about season 4 until the end, the story became messy with mostly crazy strong characters one up each other and explode stuff. Then season 5, the last season came and the series just became silly. The second half of the last season was completely pointless and random. With its big array of characters, many were out of place and should not be in the series in the first place. The most annoying character of all was the pink pig Hawk, with its sole purpose of being useless and screaming throughout.

The animation in an anime usually should not be a detrimental aspect to the judgement of the whole series, but in this instance it is. I cannot take the show seriously as everything looked like kid toys and angry children.

Overall, it was painful watching the later end of the series. Rating of each season: 7/10, 6/10, 7/10, 6/10, 4/10. As a whole, 5.5/10.

Loved watching this one. It had a good mix of fantasy and action. The storyline always kept me entertained. I wish it was longer! I need to find another show to fill it's place.

They do over sexualize some characters, but you will find that in a lot of animes.
