Yeah, the whole "it's really Matrona" thing didn't make sense to begin with and it makes even less sense now.

Things are coming together.

Double post.

So does anyone think some of the other Ten Commandments are going to get involved or if it'll just be these two?

Triple post, man I'm doing this a lot lately.

But anyway, if the goddesses turned out to be evil, how would you like the idea of them having an elite group called the "Seven Virtues", because apparently that's a big idea people have.

Personally, setting aside my thoughts on just assuming the goddesses are super evil that would just seem like a retread of the Ten Commandments to me, only worse because it would create some questions I don't think would be answered.

I think all the races will turn out to have some sort of point.

I could see an elite group of Goddesses called the "Seven Virtues", but I'm not sure they'll be evil. A conflict would probably happen because Humans are harboring Demons and have befriended them (after the Commandments and the King get the boot).

So the new chapter's pretty good. Hopefully Diane meets up with the other Sins. Also Tentacle Girl & Four-Arms look to be pretty cool guys. Especially Four-Arms doing a bad-ass pose there.

Read it. Was pretty good. Octololi seems nastier than I expected her to be.

So I just notice but when Galan was petrified you can tell even the faces on his knees are scared. Seriously, go compare them in the panel with him turned to stone to any other close up and you can tell the difference. That's a nice touch.

So, think this tournament is going to be an important thing or just a detour to get rid of two more Commandments?

[up] The latter and if two more go down expect this to be a pattern for the demons dying two at a time...

Eh these 2 seems "smarter" then Galan & Mera so they might not make epic blunders.

You know, I never had any delusions that any of the Sins were going to die during this or that most of the Ten Commandments were going to stay alive, it's more about execution than anything. As long as that's good, I won't complain. That's why Merascylla being dead would really bother me.

How many of you want Escanor, Gowther, and Merlin to have just straight up did whatever they were accused of? I get you don't really want your heroes to be terrible but the whole "horrible misunderstanding" bit has sort of gotten old. What happened with Diane was really pushing it for reasons that were discussed when that gaiden was over.

At least Meliodas actually was responsible for his crimes & I get the feeling Escanor & Merlin really are guilty too.

Escanor is Pride the worse and greatest sin of all. Him not doing the crime would honestly be disappointing.

Every accusation by the GOP is ALWAYS a confession.

[up][up]No he wasn't, he destroyed Danfor but he didn't do that until after Fraudrin killed everyone somehow. And even then the place was already wrecked going by Meliodas' vision of what happened. Still need to find out what happened there.

[up] Wait I dont think Fraudin killed everyone just Liz which made Meliodas totally lose it & obliterate everything killing a lot of innocent people in his blind rage. His sin would lose impact if he killed no one after all.

[up]But that's how it happened. Everyone was already dead when he lost control.

As for it losing impact, that's what I've been saying. It's not like Ban, Diane, or King actually did what they accused of either.

Wait when was it stated that Fraudin killed everyone in Danafor?

Meliodas has said he wasn't the one killed everyone. We saw during his trial to get his power back that when he lost control Danfor was already in ruins and everyone was dead. It wasn't flat out said Fraudrin killed everyone but the implication is obvious.

Edit: All of this is reason why Meliodas says his sin isn't destroying Danafor but that he couldn't protect everyone in it.

Well he probably killed the remaining survivors. I cant really believe even if Fraudin being powerful demon that he systematically eliminated every human in an entire kingdom. I mean theres a surviving knight walking around.

Cain is walking around because he wasn't there. And, yeah, realistically Fraudrin probably couldn't have killed everyone but that's how the story is treating it. At the very least most people were already dead when Meliodas blew it up.

We also still need to find out what happened with Elizabeth.

Spoilers.

Diane keeps working on the dance,and is starting to sense her surroundings.As she's getting a hang of it,she senses a "rockslide",which was a demon.

The demon attacks the kids,Matrona takes it out,but the kids are at a critical condition,so she figures the tournament's their only hope.Barbarian brings Gideon to Diane.

Cut to Four Arms and Octololi.Turns out he's Balor/Dolor.

I figure Escanor and Gowther are probably 'guilty' and feel no guilt. Hell, what Gowther did to Guila alone was pretty terrible and that was him actually trying to help. I don't know about Merlin.

Considering her sense of morality & current actions Merlin's crime was probably more the "I did what I had to do kind of thing but I dont regret it cause it was necessary."

Regarding the spoilers Four Arms being either of those would be really weird but I don't see how they could mix up the names, yeah, they're written mostly alike but the first characters would be noticeably different.
