Fucking savage
>>140199975
>Elizabeth is going to stop him cause muh killing is wrong
Mark my words
>>140202016
Elizabeth is nothing more than Meliodas' cumdump who has no say in anything.
>>140202113
havent kept up with the series. Is she really that bad
>>140199975
I swear Meliodas looks so angry despite having controlled his wrath.
>>140202926
Her main roles so far is emotional support and being a portable first aid. Doesn't help that she has no personality other than being a background cheerleader
>>140199512
There's been like three color pages in 4 chapters. Nakaba is a monster.
Wait, the fairy king's hair isn't black after all?
>>140199512
Oh hey look, the announcer dude is fine. Escanor's aim is on point.
>>140202016
Have you even read the manga? She was the once to convince Mel to kill Dale.
>>140199864
and
>>140199922
made no sense, might be missing a page.
>>140205563
This is the in-between page: >>140199975
Pay attention to the page number.
That's how you kick ass. Escanor a shit.
>>140208456
Meliodas is only attacking now only because Escanor gave him a good chance.
>>140199975
Oh neat he actually doesn't have an eye.
>>140208640
>A good chance
He could have done so if he wanted. He's the one who agreed to go to that festival.
>>140199512
He's got RAINBOW WINGS!!
>>140208640
They didn't dodge Escanor's attack because they were taken by surprise to begin with. Mel had obviously planned to do this since the beginning. They were not able to read his thoughts when all of this happened.
>>140208750
Mel isn't the planning type, I think he just took the oportunity.
>>140202016
It is more likely for it to be the a certain giant cause she wants her family members to be healed.
This ends up with the two giants siding with dolor .
>>140208998
but King and Elizabeth can cure the kids
"The time has come"
Meliodas was waiting for a chance to attack.
His real intention wasn't seen through by anyone,
and he cuts off Dolor's two left arms in the attack.
When Dolor manipulates the earth in an attempt to crush every survivor out here,
Meliodas, just like earlier, cuts off his right arms as though he went for a beating to death.
Gloxinia shows up, turning Basquias as his armor but the spirit alone is enough to make it fall apart quickly.
[TN: Yep, not very clear.]
End texts: "The darkness announces it. The name of the strongest man. The hero rises. The name of that man is Meliodas!!"
To be continued in chapter 172 / To you, who were once my friends.
Fuck, I don't know if I should like, when Nakaba gives the usual shonen routine the middle-finger or not.
>>140208659
Probably he reason why he normally wears a paperbag on his head.
>>140199512
pretty wings
>>140199922
i think he misdrew his extra arm on his punching side
So much for the impatient complainers who couldn't wait moaning about "yet another tournament" and why Mel and company would play along. They, well, Escanor and Mel, took advantage on the 2 commandments' hubris and played along until an opening presented itself. Balor and Glox were probably on guard about Mel, but didn't expect on of them lowly humans to suddenly turn around and wreck their shit.
>>140199512
>>140199637
I like how Escanor spared the announcer. Dude must be scared shitless. Well, more than he was already.
>>140208659
Merlin literally stole his eye. what a bitch
>>140199512
So glad it wasnt' a tournament arc
>>140210088
So Escanor did 99% of the work but Meliodas gets all the glory.
>>140211580
What the hell are you talking about, everyone already got a sun boner with the last chapter, more like Mel is just finishing the work.
>>140210948
No. It's his lower arm pulled back for a follow up punch.
TRANSLATION WHEN!!?

Who will she end up going for?
>>140212077
No one, she'll die alone.
>>140212077
Arthur, Nakaba loves his /ss/.
>>140212222
he should grow pretty quickly tough, except if Nakaba ends up making him like Saber and Excalibur gives him eternal shota mode I guess.
>>140212892
Maybe he'll be like Meliodas and look forever 12. I can't imagine Arthur as an adult.
>>140211580
>So Escanor did 99% of the work
kek no he didn't.
>>140212077
Merlin doesn't see any of them like that at all, Escanor's especially. She is the independent woman type. Arthur will have his girl in his own series, Merlin is his mentor.
>>140213075
We already have 6 eternal shotas (Mel, Zeldris, King, Gloxinia, the vampire one and Helbram) for far in the story, might get a bit redundant. I like more the idea of a never aging Merlin staying by the side of Arthur for his whole "normal aging" life.
>>140212077
she doesnt even have a body
I like it. Nakaba literally shat on shonen tropes with this tournament arc. Of course people who where bitching about powerlevels (shonen trope), will ironically bitch at this too.
MELIODAS MY MAN! I never doubted you, you are the best.
Which other battle shonen protagonist would have acted like Melodias, just screwing the tournament and taking his chances?
>>140214423
Still Negima has plenty of undisturbed tournament.
>>140214565
Because there is no serious threat in them. Rakan or Sanders were not antagonists.
>>140199791
Shiny pokemon brah.
>>140214423
Meliodas didn't give the tournament the finger, based Escanor did. Meliodas sat there and did nothing while midnight Escanor and his talking pig fought Gowther.
>>140215761
>Triggered Escanorfag
All of this was Meliodas's plan.
>>140215895
>Still not knowing that Hawk is the Sins' mastermind and came up with this plan
Step it up fampai
Escanorfags/Sunfags are the cancer of the Nanatsu no Taizai fandom. Can't wait for Estarossa to kick the shit out of him.
Also, Meliodas >>>> Escagay.
>>140215761
Goku for example would give both a Senzu bean, since he wants a good fight.
Lufy would probably do something similar.
Melodias gave it the finger since he now attacks his weakened opponents. I am not sure if other portagonists would the the same.
>>140219517
>Lufy would probably do something similar.
No he wouldn't. Especially if it's someone who hurt his friends, it's especially unlikely if the characters are assholes who force his friends/comrades to fight each other.
By your logic, Luffy would have stopped fighting Doflamingo after Law hit him with the Radio Knife.
Melodias going for the kill, after an attack that was probably planned ahead of time, is on par with Goku decapitating Perfect Cell shortly after Cell explains his 'core' is in his head or Vegeta, Kuririn and Piccolo all taking advantage of the fact that Freeza couldn't sense ki, on Namek, by using Dende as a pocket-healer; it's literally the characters taking advantage of an opportunity, which is nothing approaching unique to Nanatsu no Taizai and the DB examples is probably where Nakaba drew inspiration from, since he's a notorious DB fan.
Meliodas had to remind to readers who's the boss. That's the Dragon Sin for you.
>>140205442
It was pink originally.
>>140199512
I was kind of hoping for the festival to continue for a few more rounds, but it makes sense to attack them till they are weakened. So all the new characters won't be introduced and forgoten, or introduced later?
>>140222320
No, Brown
>>140208659
Maybe he keeps an extra eye in his pocket. He has a magical eye and he even used it, so it has to be somewhere.
>>140208679
King will take his wings and Elaine will take his spear. Ban can cook something nice from the remains.
>>140210088
So, in the end the Ten Commandments are not even that big of a threat. Either Estarossa and Zeldris are leages above the rest, or we get the Demon King as this arcs last boss.
>>140213104
>Arthur will have his girl in his own series
Guinevere. I bet she will be introduced in NnT though. I can't wait for Ban and Elaine's son to NTR him.
I figured King would end up beating Gloxnia.
The whole thing where Meliodas reflected his "Status Promotion" or whatever back at him caused his back to hurt where his wings should be.
I was figuring something would happen where King would have to nearly kill himself and his wings would suddenly pop out.
>>140222721
It's hard to say.
There's still some inconclusiveness to each of the Commandments' deaths so far.
> Galan - nobody smashed the fucking statue, Merlin will presumably find some way to get her body back, so why not him too
> Meriscylla - Galan also survived bisection, body never shown after falling
> Gloxinia & Balor - still not killed on-screen
If anything I expect the Commandments to recover/regroup and force the Sins to evac via Merlin teleport or whatever.
It's overtly dissatisfying for Gloxinia and Balor to be defeated at this time by someone other than King/Diane.
The only thing making me lean towards accepting it is that Matrona's kids need Vasquez's healing juice ASAP, and I can't see Nakaba just ignoring that or letting them die.
>>140221104
>the characters are assholes who force his friends/comrades to fight each other
Gloxi and Dolor didn't really force anyone.
>>140223126
I fully expect Galan to return and knock Mel around for a bit. Nakaba DID say that he was his favourite.
>>140223144
it's not like the rules (or even the teams) were announced before everyone arrived, nor did they allow anyone like Escanor to drop out.
that's pretty much forcing them, with only the tiniest bit of tentative partial consent.
>>140202113
>>140202926
>>140203905
She's way better than alot of other shounen heroines though
>>140223305
I want this Elizabeth back.
>>140223305
She even got Mel to kill Dale when he was in full shounen protag "I won't kill anyone" mode
>>140221104
>By your logic, Luffy would have stopped fighting Doflamingo after Law hit him with the Radio Knife.
Well Lufy WAS holding back all the, time. Even risking his own death, until Law was down until muh gear 4
>>140223230
Galan and Merlin will get back their bodies, whenFraudrinrevelas he is the Demon King and takes back all the commandments. Probably right after Zeldris and Estarossa finally go down.
>>140222721
The haven't really done anything yet (outside of four we haven't been following).
Glox and Dolor, especially, have so many cards up their sleeves it's too soon to count them out. We don't know what their commandments do, we haven't seen Dolor's eye or Glox's power. Glox's spear loads of forms we haven't seen and Dolor still has yet to show us the extent of his power (crystal skin and the dance).
>>140223305
> Elizabeth's only badass moment ever
>>140224319
Come on, she saved everyone against Hendricksen, and saved Diane in the labyrinth. Plus she is with the sins, no one looks badass next to them.
>>140224020
And we have Silver too. Probably Gloxi and Dolor will fight back, maybe even defeat Mel, and then Silver revals he isZarathrasand wrecks them.
>>140199512
Escanor has an amazing aim.
>>140225361
More like Tazoo has amazing luck.
Is it possible Mera's spell brought back Zarathras, but he needs the armor to hide, because his body, unlike Elaine's, is all rotten and skewered? Maybe he can't use Purge, because that would send him back to death.
Holy shit, Escanor did the actual smart thing this whole arc and Meliodas actually followed up on it.
Thank god this whole tournament isn't continuing.
>>140222392
You can see it's pink/red.
>>140226050
Because he was disrespected.
Would it be better if Elisabeth's personality was replaced with Liz'? counting that she keeps the heal cheat.
>>140223230
>knock Mel around for a bit
Kek no.
>>140226050
He wanted to do this since the beginning, Escanor gave him the opportunity to.
>>140226641
Wasn't Liz a druid too? Or reincarnating as a druid was just by chance?
>>140226390
>But can you defeat Madara
Get me every time.
>>140217761
Finally an /a/non with refined taste.
Estarossa will BTFO all these Escabore fags.
>>140229816
I know. Can't wait.
