Review of Episode 11 of Nanatsu No Taizai: Fundo No Shinpan


 

Review of Episode 11 of Nanatsu No Taizai: Fundo No Shinpan In the previous episode, it was shown that Meliodas escapes from the cocoon before Merlin stops its time and appears as New Demon King before everyone. According to my expectation, Meliodas should have retained his emotions and should have lifted the curse from Elizabeth. But an unexpected thing happened which blew my mind. I couldn’t understand what was happening for a second. Demon King, father of Meliodas and Zeldris occupied Meliodas’s body. He even mocked his son Zeldris when asked him to fulfill his promise. Demon King started to show his wrath which was overwhelming power even Archangels and Seven Deadly Sins. King gets exhausted and returns to his original form. Demon King announces that he would lift the curse of Elizabeth and would kill her afterward. His reason was he wanted to see Meliodas’s reaction after knowing that after these years of struggle, he couldn’t even see Elizabeth in her final moments. He began attacking seven deadly sins. 

When despair and disappointment were engulfing Nanatsu no taizai, then Ban comes for rescue in the pinch moment exchanges in physical combat with the demon king. Everyone gets surprised at how much stronger Ban became. But still, that much power is not enough to defeat the demon king. Ban asks his captain, Meliodas whose emotions are entrapped in his body and who is struggling against the spiritual form of demon king to finish the task and come out quickly. 

With that hope, Meliodas began rising against the spiritual demon king and on other hand, Ban is engaging in physical combat with demon king. It was a wonderful scene because I never expected such a twist in the final moments of war. I was rather expecting a normal conclusion but on the other hand, we got more suspense. When I thought that there might be a chance that demon king will be defeated, the demon king plays dirty and says to Meliodas that Elizabeth is dead and he won’t able to see her again. After listening to this he gets disappointed and he slips into despair. Demon king sees the opportunity and defeats Meliodas.  

Even Ban got overwhelmed in physical combat. Then Gowther makes a plan to help them and with his power he and other members of seven deadly sins enter into Meliodas mind to aid him fighting against the spiritual form of demon king. 

I think the next episode will be the finale. To be frank, the outcome is crystal clear but I looking for happy moments after the battle. I know many hate this series but I differ in opinion. I really enjoyed all the seasons and movies of this franchise. Though I won’t be able to get more episodes after this season but I am forward to the upcoming movie.
