The Seven Deadly Sins (Nanatsu no Taizai)

The most interesting powers? Gowther or maybe Ban. Merlin is just a generic wizard while Meliodas just stabs stuff, beamus and reflects things.

Meliodas' fighting being standard is why I was hoping he would just stay in demon mode from now on.

I knew it wouldn't happen but, hey, that should be his natural state, and it would be interesting for the hero to constantly be using powers that everyone in the cast perceives as "evil".

So anyway, these two new characters have apparently already appeared in that video game that came out in Japan like a month or so ago. Assuming they're going to be the same, they're powers are already known, but I don't know what they do.

Apparently Arden's is "無駄 (Bane)" don't know what an English translation would be, and Deldrey's or however you spell it power is called "Love Drive". Again, assuming they're the same as the game, which I don't see why they wouldn't be except for minor tweaks her and there because of the different medium.

Bane sounds like a Terrify ability,while Love Drive seems like a buffing power based on the Power of Love .Maybe like Pepe's.

Spoiler delivery service.

Dreyfus appears.Girl uses her ability to make her fall in love with her,and tells him to be her shield.

Boy shoots arrows at her,Dreyfus shields her,the arrows sap his strength,and transfer it to the boy.

The two fight,till the girl says that she prefers the boy,and he strikes Dreyfus down with his sword,Marriage.

Ban and Jericho go at Ban's hometown,the city of thieves.

So either these two are really good or Fraudrin just sucks. And why was he alone when they were specifically told to go in at least pairs?

City of thieves huh? Well, that just makes me think even more that the pair Ban and Jericho are going to run into are going to be Derrierie and Monspiet. A red light district sounds perfect for a place like that.

Wow, Ten Commandments threat level seems to be going down the drain at express speed.

I'm guessing those two are more in the "not all that strong, but have broken abilities" corner of things.

Fraudrin.

I have been thinking that the reason he's still in Dreyfus' body is because he still hasn't fully recovered and thus is only as strong as Dreyfus (and by extension by far the weakest of them currently), but even then, I'd assume Dreyfus is much stronger than these guys. And that's assuming my little theory is true.

Of course, they had the element of surprised and knowledge, and like Hamburger Time said, probably hax sounding abilities, but still...

Or he's baiting them to take him to the whole group.

Or he's a False Idol,and the kiddies are about to face Commandment backlash.

From the way he sounded before he kinda like his human meatsuit. Sure not enough to care about humanity or anything like that, but he doesn't mind being in it.

Dreyfus destroyed Diane, so he could well be over 3000, albeit she wasn't exactly in the best position to fight back at the time.

There probably is going to be something more to it than they just straight up beat him, but even so...

Chapter. He has to be faking being this awful.

What Arha said. And the other one was just watching. That's suspicious.

Didn't much care for Deldrey's powers. Seem kinda typical. As for Arden, his, I like. Basically forcing you to waste more and more power every time he hits you, though he has to hit you first.

Yeah, he's either faking, or he's being held back by Dreyfus.

Fraudrin's not alone, the creepy shadow mask one is there too. Must mean Galan went off with Merascylla. Wouldn't be surprised if Ban runs into those guys soon at the Bandit City.

Actually, Ban may be one of the best equipped to deal with a Commandment who's only got physical power right now..

I'm betting on Ban and Jericho running into Derrierie and Monspiet. Both because of the similar dynamics and for other reasons.

And most of them should have at least some magic back. Monspiet wasted all of his, but we saw what he could do with what he had, and that was apparently nothing to him.

What the hell? The Commandments were supposed to be such a big threat that all of the Holy Knights put together wouldn't be able to fight them. Now Fraudin is taken out really easily by three wannabes. I mean, what?

There's a rather big chance that he's just faking it, like he did with Gowther or the "oops I slipped" moment in the kast arc.

I think Fraudrin may don't have much abilities besides body possession and manipulation, at least for now. After all, he was nearly dead when Dreyfus found him so he has to regain his power. This may indeed be an act to trick these guys so he and the other commandment can eat them, though.

Liked the chapter but honestly the most interesting thing about it for me was the title page. Could it actually be that there was a point to Veronica's survival?

She'll be the Asterix to Griamor's kiddified Obelix.

So, I wonder if shadow masks is going to follow them or just start eating souls on his own. I doubt the latter seeing how they were supposed to be using the safety in numbers principle.
