The Seven Deadly Sins, Vol. 25

七つの大罪 [Nanatsu no Taizai] #25

by Nakaba Suzuki

Trip to the Past

The Seven Deadly Sins may have ended the tyranny of The Ten Commandments for now, but that doesn't mean all is peaceful in the kingdom. Separated from the rest of The Sins, King and Diane strike a deal with former Commandments Gloxinia and Drole, and agree to undergo special training--which sends them to a Britannia 3,000 years in the past, right before the end of the Holy War! Can the pair navigate this strange past--and a threat more powerful than The Ten Commandments?

Este volúmen me gustó más que los anteriores, creo que la trama se está convirtiendo en un misterio.

[Rereader]

Congratulations, Seven Deadly Sins, you have redeemed yourself for the past 2-3 volumes that have made me want to bang my head against a wall. Switching over to Diane and King, especially since their relationship has strengthened considerably over the last few arcs, was refreshing and the current arc has an interesting concept. I am not surprised at all to see that the Goddess race is littered with phenomenal assholes, but seeing all four races work together and get along thanks to Drole, Gloxina, Elizabeth, and Meliodas was pretty touching. The fight scenes were good and seeing the Goddesses duke it out with the Demons was entertaining. I'm still confused how a race titled "Goddess" would be weaker than literally any other race, but honestly I'm done asking stupid questions like that. I'm curious to know what this "right decision" Gloxina and Drole were talking about is and am hoping for some backstory on Gowthur, but I'm very satisfied with this volume for reminding me what I like about this series.

4/5 Stars (%76/100)

It was really good, much better than the previous volume at the very least. This volume focuses on the beginning of the Holy War, 3000 years ago. King and Diane are trained by the previous Kings, Gloxinia and Drole. They relive the war as Gloxinia and Drole. Many characters are introduced as well, mostly from the Goddess clan. Learning more about the Holy War, Meliodas, Elizabeth and the Commandments is actually more interesting than I thought. I'm curious to see what happens next.

[Consumidor de Historias]

Como no podía esperar a que terminase de salir toda la tercera temporada de “Nanatsu no taizai” he decidido seguir con el manga por donde acabó la segunda temporada del anime aunque sea para apaciguar un poco mi sed.
Siempre he pensado que el fuerte de este anime-manga es su historia y el carisma de sus personajes (aunque Elisabeth sea el peor personaje femenino que he visto en mi vida), y en el punto donde nos sitúa este tomo las cosas se ponen muy interesantes y ya estoy leyendo el siguiente.

[Honeypie]

Finally, the cover that matches the volume!

This volume wasn't as action-packed, but it was sooo good!

New characters are introduced, and I'm not sure I'm liking them (or their portrayal) very much. It makes me think if the Demon Race are the real villains? Naguguluhan na ako, pero naaamaze pa rin ako sa storyline. Haha!

Deep down, nobody wants this war.
- Elizabeth (as a Goddess)

[Alessandra Ceravolo]

Con l’arrivo degli arcangeli che hanno delle vedute ristrette la situazione precipita e la battaglia incombe non risparmiando nessuno anche se Elizabeth cerca un modo per risolvere tutto in modo pacifico dimostrando una gran forza d’animo e coraggio. Le tavole presenti all’inizio del capitolo 200 e 206 sono quelle che mi hanno colpita di più per la loro bellezza.

4/5 stars


I love this arc bc we get a glimpse of what happened previous to the start of the series.
However, even if I get why Drole and Gloxinia are doing it, it just seems like a plain bad choice

[El Mehdi]

the memories of the Holy war are very interesting

[Steph]

WHoa I took too long of a break between the first 8 chapters of this volume and the last one. Oops.

[Francesca]

Questa nuova parte è bellissima!
Non vedo l'ora di leggere il prossimo. 😍

[Ofori Canacoo]

Nice to get an insight into the Holy War.

[Nightray]

3,5⭐️

[Khari]

え？！どういうこと？！え？！妖精王と巨人王は仲間？敵？！分かんない！って言うか元妖精王とゲラードは兄弟！？！？！とてもその雰囲気ではないよ。

でもでもでも。。。やっぱりこの巻の展開は速いよ！分かんないよ！これから同になるの！？！？

[Sanyukta Thakare]

Finally got to seem some serious stuff about the holy war and what actually happened. trippy but i always like Golxina.

[Andrea Herrera]

3.5

[Fabio]

Ignorante ma sempre divertente.

[Soobie has fog in her brain]

L'ho letto ad agosto, lo inserisco adesso. Ma urge rilettura visto che ormai non ricordo nulla dei volumi letti finora e la serie sta per finire...

[Phantom_Redux]

Finally got to see the glimpse of how Holy War happened. Intrigued where it goes from here.

[DonutKnow]

This feels like filler… 😅😭😭

[Libby Jones]

Felt like a fever dream what is going on

[Emma]

A certain someone is a snake.

[Tesutamento]

3000 yıl önceki savaşı sonunda detaylıca görüyoruz. Hikayede şu noktaya kadar iblsiler saf kötü gibi bir imaj çizilse de aslında onların da kendi haklı sebepleri olduğunu öğreniyoruz. Belki biraz zorlama da olsa tarih tekerrür ediyormuş.

[The Book Dragon]

King and Diane have been kidnapped by Gloxinia and Drole. The two commandments offer to help them, but first King and Diane must pass a test.

Let’s go way back to 3000 years ago, when Britannia was still home to all five races. Goddesses and demons as well as fairies, giants, and humans. The true tale of how the demons were sealed away and how the goddesses lost their material form. But even more surprising are the familiar faces.

I gotta admit, this is a good way to show the reader the backstory without it being just another flashback.

This series has 41 volumes.

[Claude]

This section is the best of the best that nanatsu no taizai has to offer. They create an intricate backstory that sets up all the character motivations perfectly. We come to intimately understand the position of most of the commandments and their place in the conflict. I love how it’s presented and it hooked me harder than any other section of the series.

[Eric]

We finally learn a little more backstory on the first Holy War.
