Spoilers are out.Estarossa casually stops Meliodas ultra-revenge counter and destroys him
Mel got rekt.
>>141782497
Finally, he's up and doing shit.
Also, Estarossa is hands down the most attractive man in this mango. God damn.
Did the nightmare began?
The nightmare just began
>>141782497
He got fucked
>>141782453
>"Fucking manlets, when will they learn?"
Wonder how Meliodas is going to beat him.
And he's certainly going to beat him in the end of this huge arc.
Akira sent his own brother all around the world with a single punch in KB, given Nanatsu's ridiculous power levels their fight will probably be just insanely over the top.
>>141784677
>When will they learn?"
Never
>>141782453
So I guess Elizabeth is going to save him? I do want Mel out of comission for a while though, so the other characters can get their screentime.
powerlevels
>>141785225
Mel is probably going to get kidnapped since according to the translations, Estarossa is giving off yandere brocon vibes.
>>141782453
>>141782497
Well, I guess he finally woke up.
>>141782453
>>141782497
Kinda let down
>>141782453
so is he gonna be like meliodas' dad or what
or like a Danny Devito/Arnold Schwarzenegger Twins situation or something
Which commandment is he?

So the NTR was for Elizabeth.
I want Merascylla and Derrierie tolook at me in disgust.

But he expected to fail in all of these. All the time he said he would do something he ended up doing so, until now.
>>141789790
>But he expected to fail
No, he didn't.
can't wait to see what bullshit happens to save meliodas after this
>>141789790
No he fucking didn't. Fraudrin outplayed everyone in the Liones arc.
>>141789831
What if big bro let him go?
>>141789588
well, Nakaba is a DB fan.
>>141785104
Messi a cute! CUTE!
Neuer has to be tall, he's a damn keeper. Don't think there are any manlet keepers are there?
>>141789966
It's plausible, since after all no one in this ever dies
He probably wants Mel to return to his senses and rejoin him, that's why he loves him so. I was hoping there'd be that type of dynamic between the brothers.
>>141790095
Why are people so salty about this? It's a battle shounen, this is to be expected.
>>141790095
I was a bit salty about Merascylla, but then Elaine had a point about that being the reason she was still around. I'm okay with that i that sense, but I do think both she and Mera will disappear for good soon.
>>141790144
I think rejoin is more of a literal rejoin of the split body kind. There's even the yin-yang symbolism in that page with those two.
>>141790213
ah yeah good point
>>141790145
Characters surviving when by all rights they shouldn't gets really old, really fast, combine that with the constant asspull fake-outs and ressurections and you get a story that's been spinning on a treadmill for the past 70 chapters
>>141790274
This is completely common to all battle shounen. See Kite and Gon in HxH.
>>141790190
merascylla being alive is probably better than elaine staying inexplicably revived for no good reason, it just inspires the kneejerk response of "not this shit again" from me
>>141789529
>based Estarossa casually stopping that with one hand
Meliodas epic BTFO
>>141789910
But Meliodas didn't set out to get Faudrin, he just wanted to free the kingdom like Elizabeth asked. Heck, in the end he even sound like he wasn't really trying to kill hendricksen.
>>141790274
Characters aren't being murdered left and right, but the series has hardly been "running on a treadmill". It's probably one of the better offerings out of this demographic in the past 10 years.
>>141789831
Clone?
>>141790438
Can't wait for full power Escanor to epic BTFO Estarossa.
Can noon peaked Escanor brush off Mel too?
>>141790493
fuck, that would actually be good
>>141790473
I only just caught up to this shit, and since chapter 100 we've had Escanor finally show up, Galan petrified, and a million fucking useless side characters introduced. Other than that, the commandments are running amok slaughtering nameless peasants. Not much has changed. Was actually refreshing to see the commandments quit fucking around and acting stupid with the heroes.
>>141790576
Not only that, Merlin can teleport him, maybe Mel still is playing around (he deliberatly stalled the fight with the two fags it seems) and seems like Gowther's powers can be very effective on the ten commandments.
>>141789686
All Estarossa did was to finish a tired Meliodas. Yes it's badass but Meliodas is disadvantaged.
>>141790950
see >>141789529
everyone else was scared shitless and he stopped it with one hand
>>141789831
>>141790924
Mel's not going to be saved. He's being temporarily removed from the manga so other characters can be fleshed out.
>>141791293
You head canon and wants aren't going to happen faggot
>>141791311
>Melfags
>>141790340
yeah i totally understand that, i do appreciate that Mera is burnt af and probably not at 100% (probably regenerating though) but yeah I'm glad Inaba didn't just sweep why Elaine was still alive away so easily.
>>141791524
er Nakaba* not Inaba, sorry trying to multitask here
>>141791122
Butt girl clearly doesn't give a fuck.
>>141791122
It's the Revenge Counter of Derrierie's attack.
>>141791293
zero chance the MC gets written out of this, that's just not how these things ever work
(even though I'd cry for joy at an arc based around King and Diane)
>>141790924
>Merlin can teleport him
He'd just teleport back instantly because he's bound to that area.
The only way she could do it is if she used Absolute Cancel, but she needs to physically touch Mel for that to work, and she currently doesn't have a body.
The other magician also said they probably kill him before he could teleport Mel away.
I sure love powerlevels!
That aside though, why does Estarrossa look exactly like Mel's wanted poster?
>>141792395
It's just a coincidence
>>141782453
>>141782497
Is this where the Elizabeth/Estarossa NTR happens? It's been a long wait.
The power creep in this manga is a fucking problem. Meliodas is several tiers above everyone but full power escanor. And this guy seems to be several tiers above Meliodas. It's the classic DBZ problem, everyone's gonna be fucking irrelevant and the amount of asspull required to resolve this situation is gonna suck.
>>141792547
The solution here is as simple as Escanor fighting Estarossa.
>>141792668
I hope you're right, but I don't think they'll let the supporting character with the super time-limited power window to steal the spotlight like that.
>>141792547
Elizabeth has the power of diplomacy i guess? Just solve things by turning enemies to allies
>>141792547
I think the reason Nakaba has introduced so many new characters is because they're going to tag team the Commandments.
The Sins aren't going to radically increase in power, but they'll be able to handle one Commandment with two of them fighting together. It'll make for some cool combined techniques.
>>141792547
The worst part of it is that Meliodas is the least interesting MC
>>141793104
Actually agree. His sexual harassment was funny as first but his supporting cast is way better-
>>141792547
the power creep is just a part of this manga, since this manga is literally a never-ending roulette of who gets blasted the fuck out
god bless this manga cause all i wanted was to see smug characters getting out smugged in a super fast never ending cycle
>>141792739
Hey, it was Escanor who fought the vampire king, not Mel. In fact, Mel didn't fight at all.
>>141793636
In a bonus story, anon.
>>141792473
More like Elizabeth is NTR'd by Estarossa.
>>141793717
Yeah, well Mel has his pick of Fraudrin, Zeldris, Estaross and the demon king. Obviously he won't be fighting all of them and Escanor needs to fight someone he's not going to instantly destroy.
When will we finally get their tragic backstory?
It's such bullshit that Mel was able to fight them at all. He should have gotten stomped.
>>141796103
He did get stomped though.
>>141782453
>that background
>white and black
>Estarossa on the bright side
>Meliodas on the dark side
So Meliodas is a failed clone of Estarossa right? Since Meliodas can do counters, Estarossa should be creation or something.
>>141796656
Wouldn't be surprised if his power was just to cancel attacks altogether.
>>141796713
Probably thou shalt not kill sort of power Mel's attack intended to kill he negated it.
>>141785099
Meliodas is a weird as fuck demon. Why does he have to use a seal to access his powers? If he gets damaged enough, it even turns off like it's temporary. Is Meliodas a demon at all? He's more like a human who inherited a demon's power. Or he might not even be human. He lives longer than a demon, but isn't in demon form at all times. He's probably got some immortal power to him.
>>141782453
>>141789529
>>141782497
>it's another meliodas jobs episode
>>141797742
It ain't jobbing if it's against the strongest guy there
>>141797788
That's exactly what jobbing is, he's getting fucked up to prove how strong someone else it. This is the literal definition of jobbing.
>>141797876
So, get gangbang'ed by 9 people who as strong as him is your definition of jobbing?
What will his power be?
>>141799323
The power to smash Merlin's pussy while Escanor sobs.
>>141799323
Probably something to parallel Elizabeth's powers, considering that they already parallel each other quite a bit. Maybe a nullification power?
>>141782453
I´d actually be fine with Mel dying here, let the other characters have their chance to grow instead of him picking the villains of one by one
>>141798232
They all would've died on the spot if not for Estarossa walking in and slapping his shit.
>>141799323
Fucking the evil out of others.
>>141782453
God, I love this manga. Every week is hype as fuck.
>>141789457
Fucking Uchihas
>>141800355
Nah demons don't let evil brain chakra excuse their actions.
>>141782453
somebody post the raws
>>141799815
That makes it sound like they almost jobbed to him, which makes no sense because they fucked him up hard.
>>141800508
They're not all out yet. Only a few pages have been released, the full thing releases Monday.
>>141795138
After this, King will probably go back to the forest to talk to Gerharde and ask her how she knows Gloxinia. I'd give it about 15 chapters or so.
What are the chances of any of the Commandments becoming good guys?
>>141800740
Zeldris - 75%
Estarossa - 20%
Derrierie - 50%
Monspiet - 50%
Galan - ded
Merascylla - 40%
Grey Lord - ???
Fraudrin - 10%
Gloxinia - 75%
Dolor - 75%
>>141790095
>abloobloo nobody dies!!!
You just don't understand the profound tragedy of NnT. There is no end to the pain. This is why characters are constantly brought back from the dead to suffer in prolonged despair. It's also why reincarnation is a central theme to the story.
>>141800740
1%. elizabeth does some purification druid shit and remove the demons inside the commandments AND then its mel's original army versus the original commandments
>>141799323
being cute as fuck
>>141782453
Is Mel's left arm a fucking bone when he threw that punch?
>>141799323
sword beams
really strong sword beams
So Estarossa is a yandere brocon?
>>141799323
"Knights of Rounds" A summoning power where he summon KoR to fight for him
The cat is Lancelot.
>>141799323
Being a better MC than Meliodias.
>>141801257
Either that or interested in some form of selfcest
>>141801257
The doujins pretty much write thenselves.
>>141800818
>Galan - ded
Nice speedreading, Merlin is dead too then you fucking retard?
>>141800740
Considering this is Nakaba, if you have read Kongou Banchou it's very probable.
>>141800532
That's just meme jobbing.
And the problem with Meliodas here is that for him to win, he had to get beaten up, for Revenge Counter. It's not the most conventional fighting style.
That said, Meliodas getting stomped on by Esta is legitimate jobbing. Meliodas is shown to be able, through SOME means (revenge Counter), to wipe the other 8 Commandments in one blow, but it was used to hype up Estarossa instead.
>>141801281
I didn't know Lancelot was a monster cath.
>>141801683
>meme jobbing
If he could kill them all then he would have done it as soon as he got his power back, and that would make the Commandments "jobbers".
Esta could also be using his own magic to cancel the attack, so no, nobody is jobbing here. Mel got outskilled and tag teamed.
>>141801797
That'd go against his character.
He went there, and warned them. They didn't listen.
In addition, as noted during the battle against Grey Hendy, Revenge Counter is risky. You don't use it unless you have no other options. He didn't have any here, as he can't escape.
He can't conventionally beat the 8 Commandments, but with a specific strategy he wouldn't normally use, he can have a shot at it. Estarossa completely threw it to the trash.
Is there even reason to assume Estarossa has such magic? You can't counter a normal, non magical attack, which is what he did.
>>141801718
Lancelot is many things in japanese cartoons, like a girl, a robot, a sword, a robot girl and more. Monster cath is pretty tame in comparison.
>>141802252
Well, I mean more that Nakaba hasn't taken huge liberties in what the characters are.
Lancelot is what, the greatest Knight Arthur had. Cath Palug is... well, Cath Palug.
What the fuck is Merlin even doing?
>>141802843
Stoned
>Everyone forgetting based Lord Denzel is coming.
>>141789529
>In each other's embrace as they're about to be obliterated.
Love those little things.
>>141789457
>>141782453
I have to admit, when the last page of the previos chapter said this chapter was titled "to my beloved Meliodas", I sure didn't have this setup in mind.
>>141802958
Denzel's squad a best.
>>141801281
Better finish with their ultimate technique Ultimate End.
>>141803139
"Hey guys! There's this invisible fairy in naked stockings that only I can see ever since childhood! Why are you looking at me like this?"
Will we ever see them again?
Fraudrin looks so scared kek. What a faggot.
>>141797583
Maybe he's the child of a goddess and a demon?
>>141782453
I never actually noticed until now that he has literally the exact same haircut.
I've been waiting for there to be some kind of nine tailed/hollow esque power up since day 1. Is that happening now?
>>141804255
Didn't that happen ages ago when Mel got really mad fighting King's fairy friend?
>>141802158
It didn't even kill Hendrickson. And Mel's strong, but Revenge Counter wouldn't have done shit even if it hit the Commandments.
He couldn't have killed 8 fucking dudes who are all around his strength. At best it would have fucked them up a la Escanor's Charge and Fire.
>>141804316
Yeah nah not edgy enough m8. I'm sure he can go harder.
>>141802973
Really hope both of them will survive. They are cute.
>>141802158
>That'd go against his character
This implies that he let all of those innocent people die rather than quickly getting rid of them, which I think would definitely go against his character.
>>141804346
I don't remember if this was explained or not, but, back then he was just returning the damage done to him by knights and the 7 sins, who when compared to the power levels of the 10 commandments are just pathetically weak.
I would assume that revenge counter's strength depends on the amount of damage you take, so wouldn't that mean that the 10 commandment were about to be hit by the combined strength of all their attacks? I mean, considering that Mel got the devil beaten outta him by AssGirl you'd think they'd be pretty fucked.
>>141804539
Yeah, but Mel's had to tank all of those attacks. If he can do that with the damage he had already sustained AND completely letting his guard down, then there's no way it would have killed any them.
Also, if Estarossa is significantly stronger than Mel, then that only confirms it wouldn't do jack. Escanor's Charge and Fire was around Esta's magic level (according to Glox), and that didn't kill the Commandments.
>>141789529
So they didn´t know about Revenge Counter after all.
>>141804452
He doesn't prioritize random people though.
Besides, if he goes to them and warns them to stop fucking shit up, obviously the assumption is that nobody will die afterwards.
They didn't heed the warning, so it's off with the kiddy gloves.
>>141805134
He only "warned" them to make sure they'd split up. He knew they weren't going to quietly back down - and he did that because he knew he couldn't have fought all of them at the same time.
To then go around and say Mel could somehow kill every Commandment bar Estarossa with a single attack seems to be excessively exaggerating the strength of a move that has failed to kill anyone the two times it's been used.
>>141802973
those don't look like "about to be obliterated" faces
>>141805239
But Revenge Counter doesn't have a stable strength, it depends on how much of beating he takes, now that his strength is back, he can obviously take a lot more.
Summary is out.
Looks like Mel tanked two more attacks from Fraudrin and Glox respectively before he Revenge Counter'd them.
>>141804664
He also has to take the attacks in a way that keeps them from killing him individually. If he took them wrong they still could have killed him.
>>141805428
I know that, but when we start talking about what it could have done we're just delving into speculative territory.
It literally did nothing to Estarossa, and if you wan to gauge powers, Escanor's attack is supposedly on his level (and also wasn't strong enough to kill Dolor or Glox).
>>141805608
I could probably make an argument for the released power being directed to a larger area, but you kind of do have a point with the speculative nature of it.
>>141805659
Obviously it would have fucked them up pretty badly a la Escanor's attack, but if he could have casually murdered 9/10 of them I'd like to think he would have done it before they had a chance to regain their magic.
>>141805755
But again, Revenge Counter isn't something you just use in a situation due to how risky it is.
This is a situation where he can't escape, and he can't beat the Commandments at once, so it's the only way he has.
>>141791524
I think Mera can't regenerate, or would have already if she could. Kind of like how Ban can't regenerate from Mel's wound. Izraf said he couldn't regenerate from Escanors attack, even thought it was hellblaze.
>>141791886
Have you played Chrono Trigger? MC dies two thirds in and it's just an optional side quest to bring him back to life. And it's one of Nakaba's favourite games.
>>141806191
I'd like to think she'd at least get to heal up a bit eventually. She's not exactly presentable right now
>>141800818
>Galan - ded
Fucking hell. Nakaba is a RPG faggot, especially of Sakaguchi's. Don't be surprised if Galan is depetrified by a golden needle or a soft.
>>141806244
This battle right here seems very much like an RPG too.
Grey Lord's magic = Can't run from boss battles.
Meliodas losing could be a classic "boss battle you cannot win". Beatrix from FF9 as example.
>>141799380
Since we are RPG already, why not make his power 'deplates both his and his enemies MP, deactivates passive skills and brings both to 1 HP'. Whoever strikes first wins, and he is lucky and quick with his sword.
>>141782453
Friendly reminder that revenge counter has a 0.2% survival rate/99.8% victory rate for Meliodas.
>>141800863
Actually, non-demon Commandments vs full demon Comandments would be nice.
>>141803760
I hope, but probably not. But if we get a training arc for a Mel rescue arc, we might get Diane training with Matrona, King and Ban in the Fairy Forest and Elizabeth in Ishtar training under them.
>>141782453
Did hat Estarossa break Lostvayne or is that some weird angle?
>>141796713
Cancelling attacks is Meliodas's power. Although it'd be plausible for them to have the same move set.
>>141804539
Mel has X amounts of max HP. When he is beaten badly, he sustained Y amounts of total damage, making his current HP X-Y. Revenge Counter is inflicting Y damage in one move. It doesn't matter how powerful are the individual strikes he receives, only the total damage matters. Though this Revenge Counter could be more powerful, if his max HP got higher with receiving his original power.
>>141806547
No. That was the chance of Hendy's survival.
>>141805608
If Estarossa has something like Vanish Counter, it doesn't matter how powerful is he.
>>141806711
Weird angle. His arm looks shorter too.
>>141799380
>Elizabeth is Goddess Apostle
>Arthur will be the Demon Apostle
>At some point he'll be possessed by the Demon King and become the final boss
Screencap this
>>141807596
Doubt it. Elizabeth is Druid, but Arthur is only a normal human. And if the Demons had an Apostole, why wouldn't it help Fraudrin? Arthur's power will be key later that's for sure. Than we get the Arthur spin-off Nakaba promised.
>>141806547
More like a 100% survival rate/50% victory rate for Meliodas.
>>141806908
RPG-wise, the damage should be divided between multiple enemies as well, so it shouldn't have been as effective as when he hit Hendy.
>>141808079
If it's enough to knock them out, he wins.
>Draw a girl
>Call it a boy
>>141806163
I think that's the point.
He ran out of options as soon as he realized he couldn't escape. He was never going to give up and he might've been able to take out one or two, but it really was a last-ditch effort. He wasn't going to walk away from there victoriously.
>>141808542
FUCK THESE CAPTCHAS
>>141803139
After the death of the sins are they became the main cast?
I hope Diane changes her hairstyle at some point to something like this.
>>141789529
>revenge counter
I guess that explains why Mel switched off his demon mode when he got pummeled by Derriere last chapter.
>>141808542
Who will his VA be?I'm hoping Miyuki Sawashiro, she does the whole androgynous thing well.

Nah, she would be more suited voicing Merascylla
spoiler:
"To my beloved Meliodas"
In an attempt to assist Meliodas,
Gilthunder approaches Gilfrost and tells him to teleport to where he is, but the mage declines.
Gilthunder remembers having seen Gilfrost's ring…!?
Meliodas, who had been taking Dreyfus's "Milky Way Jailbreaking Blade" and
the first form of Gloxinia's Basquias "Spirit Spear" in succession,
is about to obliterate every Commandment with his Revenge Counter but
Estarossa stops it with his one hand and there is nothing that can be done about it.
Meliodas, who has collapsed from the depletion of his strength, gets stepped on and his ribs creak under the shoeheel's pressure.
End texts: "Why… why did he go to such lengths!? Does his pure hatred for him come from his love? It is time for the reason to be told…"
"Even his desperate attack did not land. Meliodas has run out of options and is utterly defeated!!"
To be continued in chapter 176 / The darkness talks.
>>141785225
Estarossa will probably make Elizabeth his slave in exchange for sparing Mel.

Like some anon/anons said before, Vivian is too cute.

I think Saki said she'd like to do it, but nothing was confirmed. (Or something along those lines)
>>141810149

90%. And all three brothers will fight the evil goddess clan together to unseal their kind-hearted father.
>>141811224
I wouldn't say that he is a bad guy, but if his Commandments are anything to go by, he definitely isn't a softie.
>>141811352
Nakaba is sure to make previous enemies the new allies like in almost every RPG. He did the same with Kongou Banchou, like that anon said the TC will help with the new enemy clan.

>fraudrin get nuked once by Meliodas
>Mera recently get burn by the sun
>Revenge counter is so bright that remind Merascylla about Escanor

This. Gil should choose Vivian instead of that useless princess.
The only one I don't see becoming an ally is Fraudrin, only because of his relationship with Meliodas.
We saw Meliodas was still trying to stop Dolor and Gloxinia with his words so he's probably positive to their help.
Revenge Counter is by far the most bullshit overpowered ability in the entire manga.
To think he could obliterate all of them if it wasn't for Estarossa.
>>141811578
It's a basic counter ability anon.
Literally even pokemons have something like that, see Wobbuffet.
>>141811548
The only one who I can't see becoming an ally is Estarossa. He gives me the NTR vibe.
>>141811405
Goddesses(if they will be a new enemy) will needTHATto be a more serious threat than Demons on whom they spent most of their powers to simply seal instead of killing once and for all.
When will the other sins get to do something
>>141811952
Now, thanks to the fact that Mel is dead.
>>141802727
>Well, I mean more that Nakaba hasn't taken huge liberties in what the characters are.
Speak for yourself, I don't remember Merlin being a sexy magical girl in my literature books.
Reminder that the only one who can save Melidodas now is Elizabeth.
>>141812038
Doesn't stop her from being best girl, though.
>>141812149
Story of how they met when?
>>141811578
What >>141811645 said. Mel just went for the super tanky build.
>>141812295
When Merlin feels a need to explain.So probably as soon as Escanor finds out about their relationship and gets jealous
>>141810511
Need a thought bubble saying "I'm so going to kick his ass."
>>141811156
If she's that good ad disguises, she should have turned into Gil's underwear.

Can Arthur defeat Escanor?
>>141813208
Eventually. Arthur seems like the type of character who will reveal some crazily OP power at the last possible moment of despair that will enable the good guys to turn the tables. Also rule the land and things like that
>>141813347
Arthur is a canon cuck who accepts being cucked like a total beta. He's shit.
>>141813384
>cuck
Isn't that Escanor?
>>141813719
No, that's the one whos wife is getting fucked by Lancelot.
>>141813146
Me too anon.
>>141813146
That is still my favorite chapter of the whole manga.
>>141782453
>>141782497
>>141789529
Why do we have HQ digital scans, then we get those horrid CancerStream abominations?
Where did you anons get these scans?
>>141813825
That reminds me, when will Guinevere appear?
>>141799363

>>141813146
They were so cute, it makes me miss Galan a lot.
If Mel is getting btfo'd hard (yes I know he's completely soloing the rest of the Commandments at this point) and the other Sins and supporting cast are literally useless - what hamfisted asspull power up is the supporting cast going to get to be on par to just be able to support Mel?
>King and Ban literally standing around jaw dropped like everyone else, spouting nothing but "we can't support the Captain, we'd just be in the way."
There's powerlevels, powerlevel creep, and full on lol powerlevels everywhere bs.
This is just ridiculous.
Now, if the supporting cast does magically catch up with Mel (and they probably will) it'll feel either hollow as fuck or be stretched out to ANOTHER "do this ancient training and get a power-up" bullshit arc.
>>141814306
It's kind of the only option for them regardless, whether or not Mel gets out of this alive. It's just a matter of which scenario ends up more hollow. Mel goes, game over unless super time capsule training arc. Mel survives, training arc either way.
>>141814306
they gotta do a fusion and make a huge mecha that will utterly defeat the commandments.
>>141803139
I fucking love these guys, and hope they actually get significant screentime. Watching normal people try to fight enemies that outclass them so much is interesting, especially when most of them have support-based powers.
>>141814306
What if they actually have to team up with the Pleiades and new dudes with buffs and debuffs? They can probably be taken down, just not one-on-one.
>>141811202
>something that's not season 2
Basically a patch for the first season.
>>141814963
I can only hope it goes in that direction - the only thing we've gotten from these past 3 chapters are :
>hurr durr, Meliodias is super cereal now!
>watch as he solos 2 of the Ten Commandments by pummeling them into mountains and maiming them with pure powerlevels.
>Everyone else literally watching.
>Hawk mentioning fucking powerlevels at least once a chapter.
tl;dr - who needs spells and tactics when you can lol brute force powerlevel your opponents into the ground.
It's devolved so hard.
>>141811493
Or threesome. NnT is full of threesomes that solve everything. Jericho/Ban/Elaine is almost confirmed, Arthur/Merlin/Escanor, King/Diane/Hauser, Slader/Gowther/Guila and we just got Eli/Mel/Estarossa.
>>141811778
Estarossa and Mel will fuse, and that will be Mel's last power-up.
>>141812088
Maybe Estarossa's commandment is the adultery one and he wanted to seduce Elisabeth to fuck her up.
>>141815193
What? The whole point is that Mel CAN'T just lol brute force powerlevel these guys. Gray Lord's support ability absolutely fucked Mel. The whole point of this arc is to demonstrate that sheer strength of one individual (except maybe Escanor, until he loses) is no longer enough to beat these guys. How can you say it's devolving when it's actually approaching these concepts thoughtfully?
>>141814306
You forgot a few things:
>Supports are OP in this manga
>Ban still haven't got his Treasure back and his power is literally stealing stats
>King already has enough power (Awakened Chastiefol) just needs training to use that for a longer period of time plus wings were foreshadowed
>Escanor exists
>Merlin exists
>Gowther's tricks work on Commandments
>We are told Arthur has an OP power, just can't activate it yet
>We still haven't seen Diane's full potential
>Denzel and his squad is coming and Fraudrin noted he has more tricks up his sleeve
There are many ways they can gain the upper hand without asspulls, not even taking into account the possibilities of some of the TC switcing sides. Stop complaining about things that haven't even happened
>>141815193
You are a fucking idiot. Mel had to wait for Escanor's attack to even get a chance to attack Dolor and Gloxi. Even after that, he couldn't finish them off quickly enough. And the fight itself was amazing from a tactical point of view. Finally we got a healer with hax healing abilities who actually spams it, and Mel's priority was interrupting that heal and separating the two so he can finish one off.
Do we get an almostRedhawk translation again, or it was a one time thing?
>>141814306
they're not gonna get powered up, I expect this to follow the genre standard of "main character becomes a god while everyone else is literally irrelevant"
>>141817647
Pretty pathetic god if he can't even stand up to a single human.
>>141818621
>Escanor
>Human
>Not the goddess clan's messiah and the true final boss
Anon...
>its been over 2 years since we've seen this goddess
>>141819129
But Gowther was in the background of the previous chapter.
>>141819303
What where
Can't wait for Escanor to job to Estarossa.
>>141801191
No it's going off into the distance. It's his sword that was blocked.
Also,
When is Ban going to get his treasure? And no not Elaine
>>141821029
You and me both.
>>141821029
If he took Mel's supercharged revenge counter even daytime Escanor won't stand a fucking chance in hell.
>>141821115
I imagine Ban's weapon will literally appear out of nowhere just like Escanor did by being in a cave.
>>141821544
>fighting with 2 Commandments
>shit happens all over the place
>running for their lives
>miraculously stumble in the secret underground bar of one of the only 2 beings capable of defeating a Commandment
Escabore ruined the manga.
If only at least he looked based like in the fucking wanted poster.
>>141812038
I don't think it's entirely made up. I recall Merlin WAS a woman somewhere.
>>141814090
She is yet to be born
>>141811059
seriously
escanor with around 29k is as strong as estarossa (gloxinia said so in Nnt Ch.170)and we saw what escanor is capable of with garans 40k
>>141823880
No he didn't.
The stored energy in Rhitta was as strong.
>>141823968
ok now i hope estarossa and escanor are even and have the fight of their lives
i want to see what happens when full power escanor meets his match
>>141801625
she would be if she didn't transfer her mind to the orb
