Synopsis — from MyAnimeList
Meliodas and his friends jump back into action, when the new era of peace is threatened by a powerful magical alliance that could spell the end for all.
Audience Consensus
Audience reception is significantly divided, with strong praise for the soundtrack and animation during action sequences, particularly as a fan-serving conclusion. However, there's widespread criticism regarding the rushed and generic storyline, poor CGI, and inconsistent animation quality, leading to a polarized view on its overall success as a finale.
Strengths
- Soundtrack and music are consistently praised as excellent and fitting.
- Animation and visuals during fight scenes are often highlighted as a strong point, particularly when compared to recent seasons.
- The exploration and evolution of Meliodas and Zeldris's brotherhood is appreciated.
- Serves as a good culmination and wrap-up for fans of the series, providing some fan service.
- Acts as a good epilogue to explain certain plot points or character developments.
Weaknesses
- The story pacing is frequently criticized as too fast, rushed, or generic, with villains being defeated too quickly.
- The CGI, especially for characters like the Supreme Deity, is widely panned as poor and distracting.
- Character development for many characters outside of Meliodas and Zeldris is lacking or feels incomplete.
- Some plot points and character introductions feel underdeveloped or like retcons, leading to confusion.
- The alteration or misuse of established themes and music (like 'Perfect Time') is disappointing to some fans.
- The animation quality is inconsistent, with some parts being good while others are considered wonky or stiff.
