"The Seven Deadly Sins": That's what the Netflix anime is about
Like many other animes, "The Seven Deadly Sins" is based on a manga of the same name that was drawn and published by Nakaba Suzuki between 2012 and 2020. The story takes place in a fictional world that is similar to European countries in the Middle Ages.
And in fact, “The Seven Deadly Sins” is about knights, kings and princesses: the focus of the story is Meliodas , who, as the leader of a former group of knights, is supposed to liberate the kingdom of Liones from the new rulers. Together with Princess Elizabeth of Liones, he goes in search of his former allies in order to fight with them against the tyrannical Holy Knights.

Accordingly, the Japanese fans will see the 5th season in January 2021 . The international broadcast on Netflix is therefore expected to take place at the end of 2021 .
