04x01 - The Light That Sweeps Away the Darkness

[bunniefuu]

Hey.

Do you know what's going to happen to us?

These guys are going to be fed
to the Demon Clan!

Stop it!

Stop saying that!

No! I don't want to die! Somebody save us!

Divine Cuts!

SEVEN DEADLY SINS, DRAGON SIN OF WRATH
MELIODAS

SEVEN DEADLY SINS, FOX SIN OF GREED
BAN

Come on!

Mission accomplished!

Captain.

You've gotten a bit rusty, haven't you?

Right back at you!

So anyway, where did you guys come from?

We all fell for a trap
in a certain village.

In that village, travelers are…

Right.

We'll talk after we take care
of those guys!

This is a tale of ancient times,

when the human and non-human worlds
had not yet split.

The Ten Commandments,
the Demon Clan's elite troops,

have been released
from a , -year-old seal.

Their rule extends over all of Britannia,
and a dark age approaches.

But there are those who rose up
to challenge this dark power.

The pride of the Kingdom of Liones,
a legendary order of knights.

They're called the Seven Deadly Sins.

This battle was beyond fierce.

The Seven Deadly Sins were defeated
by the Ten Commandments,

and Meliodas was k*lled.

Eventually, Britannia entered a dark age,

and the Ten Commandments' evil influence
closed in on Liones as well.

But due to the effort
of the Seven Deadly Sins,

as well as the revived Meliodas,

Grayroad and Fraudrin were defeated,

and the Kingdom of Liones was protected.

NORTHERN BRITANNIA, THE KINGDOM OF LIONES

A swearing-in ceremony
for the new grand master?

Yes. I hear it will be held soon.

Which means either Hendrickson or
Sir Dreyfus will become the grand master?

That's exciting, isn't it, Griamore?

Come on, higher! Pull it up!

-Old man!
-Be careful!

I'm going to leave it right here!

Sorry.

I can't believe I'm making a Holy Knight
help me like this.

Don't worry about it!

Helping civilians in their daily lives
is also a Holy Knight's responsibility!

Still…

Thanks to Lady Merlin,

the kingdom is back to normal
after being partially destroyed.

No, not quite yet.

What's that supposed to mean?

It's true that the buildings destroyed
in that battle may have been repaired.

However, that doesn't mean the people
have regained their former way of life.

The Demon Clan has cut off trade
from nearby towns,

and this kingdom is suffering
from a food shortage.

The Seven Deadly Sins and we Holy Knights
may be in the process of liberating them,

but there are still numerous villages
under the Demon Clan's rule.

Old man!

Isn't there anything else
I can help you with?

Anything you want, just say it!

Well…

Oh, man, this tastes so good!

Just getting to eat your cooking again
makes it totally worth it to be back!

I'm glad to fight
by your side again, friend.

Yes, me too!

But…

Your strength is back to normal, but it's
nowhere near as much as that day, right?

When I k*lled Fraudrin,

I felt so good.

I'm scared of turning back
into who I was in the past.

But I've got to turn back
into my past self,

or else I won't be able to save you.

It's going to be all right, Meliodas.

No matter what happens,

no matter who becomes my enemy,
I'll always be on your side.

And I'll be by your side…

forever.

Hey, Captain.

No matter what you're burdened with,

it doesn't change the fact
that you're my friend.

You're the Captain of the Seven Deadly
Sins, Meliodas, the Dragon Sin of Wrath.

Thanks.

Hey, Captain, what are we going to do now?

We did what Bartra asked and rescued
the travelers captured by the Demon Clan,

so our next move
is to take back Camelot Castle.

Or that's what I'd like to say.

There's still something
we have to take care of, right?

ORDAN VILLAGE

Hey, Pelliot!

Are you helping your dad again today?
You sure are working hard!

I told you, I'm Pelliotdas,
the Dragon Sin of Wrath!

And this isn't helping, it's training!

Is that right? Well, good for you!

Dad?

ROYAL CAPITAL, CAMELOT

You were att*cked?

TEN COMMANDMENTS "PIETY"
ZELDRIS

My allies were completely destroyed,

and we lost
all of the sacrifices in transit.

Did you figure out who was behind this?

That's enough. Dismissed.

TEN COMMANDMENTS "LOVE"
ESTAROSSA

My brother was wounded in the last battle,
and has yet to regain consciousness.

Galand, Grayroad, and Fraudrin were
struck down by the Seven Deadly Sins,

and Monspiet and Derieri's whereabouts
are still unknown.

Those incompetents!

Meliodas.

Stop it, Dad!

How could you give travelers
to the Demon Clan to gain their favor?

Try to understand, Pelliot.

I'm doing this to protect you, too.

Why? Let's all fight together,
and kick those jerks out of--

What would you do
if they heard you say that?

I'm sorry, Pelliot.

I'm sorry.

You're all a bunch of cowards, Dad!

I'll just defeat the Demons myself!

Here's this week's quota.

Now then…

If you'll excuse me…

Seven, eight, nine…

Looks like you're one short!

Please forgive me!

The rumors are spreading, so travelers
haven't been coming near our village!

Then you'll be the sacrifice!

Anything but that!

I have a family, and my kids--

Stop it!

Why, you…

I'll defeat…

Shut up!

You won't even be a sacrifice!

I'll k*ll you right here!

-I won't let you.
-What?

I'm going to show you right now
what happens to anyone who defies us!

What's the matter?

Try hitting me back!
I thought you were going to defeat us!

-Pelliot!
-Pelliot!

-You mustn't!
-But why?

It's no use.

Pelliot.

My dad.

My friends.

And everyone in the village.

You made them sad,
and I'll never forgive you for that!

I'm the Dragon Sin of Wrath, Pelliotdas!

I will never let you b*at me!

Now I'm bored. Just die.

Are you all right, Pelliot?

Dad.

Sorry, Pelliot.

If only me and the others
had fought them sooner.

It's not your fault.

This is all the Demon Clan's fault!

Foolish Humans!

After we did you a favor
by letting you live!

Everyone.

That's enough!

We're k*lling all of you!

We'll start with you.

It hurts.

That's it! Let's hear more!

Please, stop!

Let me hear more of those screams!

Yes! What a beautiful scream!

Who are they? Hey, k*ll them!

Let me devour your souls!

Souls!

Oh, wow.

What a pain.

Let me devour them!

That's it! Take them all out!

Oh, but let me deliver the finishing blow!

And so, you…

will die!

No, but you will.

What? Why am I hitting myself?

SEVEN DEADLY SINS, GOAT SIN OF LUST
GOWTHER

Who are you?

Pelliot!

It's all right. He only fainted.

Hey, moron!
Cut that out already and help me!

My hands…

My hands are…

That was so-so.

Your shoulder massage.

Random Ball!

Oh, you're converting someone else's
magical power into your own nutrients?

Then what about this?

Purgatory Venom.

Looks like you still have
a lot of room to evolve.

Now then…

Do you want to keep going?

Or would you rather run away
with that dirty tail between your legs?

He ran off.

Making an enemy of us, the Demon Clan,

is the same as making an enemy
of the Ten Commandments!

Burn down everything, even the village!

We gathered together
to strike down those Ten Commandments.

We're the Seven Deadly Sins!

What?

Full Counter!

Remember that!

Take it back with you to hell!

Incredible! They defeated them all!

Amazing!

In an instant, my wound is…

There!

You'll be fine now.

A village that was protecting itself
and its families

by giving travelers as sacrifices
to the Demon Clan?

Where did you hear about this village?

It was when I was out
hunting Demons with Ban.

Did Elizabeth heal you?

Hey.

Why did you save this village?

Because of the Demons,
even Human souls are deteriorating.

It's our job to help you with that, too.

The Seven Deadly Sins!

All right, you herd of swine!

Come and see!

The wait's over!

It's the inauguration ceremony
for the new Boar Hat!

Let's see it, Ban!

Okay, Captain!

That's my job!

It's perfect!

How dare you, you horrible scumbags!
I hope you get run over by a pig and die!

No way.

Don't be mad, Master.

I'll feed you the best scraps
in the world, all right?

Ban's forgiven!

What do you think, Elizabeth?
Isn't the new Boar Hat great?

Yes!

Elizabeth.

It's not like he built it
or anything, okay?

He didn't do anything, okay?

Hey, Hawk!

Who do you think paid
for all the tavern's renovation fees?

The king, right?

So you knew?

Jeez! What am I going to do with you?

I mean seriously!

Peace has been restored to Liones,

but Britannia remains vulnerable
to the thr*at of the Ten Commandments.

Therefore, to prepare for
the imminent battle with the Demon Clan,

I'd like to appoint a new grand master.

The swearing-in ceremony is finally here!

What about it?

One of you will be officially appointed
as the grand master!

Don't worry!

Anyone who complains
will get a b*ating from me!

I'm happy you feel that way,

but we have neither the right
nor the inclination.

And now, I shall appoint him.

The new grand master is…

Howzer!

Me?

Oh, wait,
but I come from a family of commoners.

And what of it?

But…

During the battle to defend Liones,
you calmly assessed the situation,

never stopped encouraging your comrades,
and used your own body as a shield.

That's exactly how
a true Holy Knight Grand Master should be.

Of course, you still have a lot to learn.

So you'll be serving in a deputy capacity.

You couldn't be more unreliable, but…

please do your best, Deputy Grand Master.

Way to go, Howzer!

Let's do our best!

Fix your hairstyle!

It has nothing to do with this!

So what is your answer?

I'll do my best with all of my strength!

Good job, Deputy!

Good luck, Deputy!

Gil's deputy!

-Way to go, Deputy!
-You can do it!

You guys are saying "deputy" way too much!

Meliodas, do you have a moment?

What is it, Bartra?

This morning, I had a vision.

A vision?

When the moon shimmers at noon,
and the low-hanging fog

fills the kingdom,

the Seven Deadly Sins
will gather once again.

King and Diane?

Yes, but I don't see the moon anywhere.

Indeed, the time has not yet come.

THE FAIRY KING'S FOREST

Damn it!

Why?

Why haven't mine grown yet?

Jeez.

I wonder why
I can't get better at dancing.
