Chris Hansell Cultured Vultures 10/04/2019
7DS is a big, chaotic adventure that admittedly manages to change things up often enough to keep the story fresh. It's all fairly surface-level stuff though, so don't expect any deeper meaning or complex characters if you dive in. Go to Full Review James Hunt What Culture 05/08/2019
It has all the typical hallmarks of a solid anime series, from its animation style to character archetypes, and admittedly it doesn't do a great deal to reinvent that particular wheel. It does, however, offer up a good version of it. Go to Full Review Matt Dorville Syfy Wire 05/08/2019
This is a show that is old fashioned fun and brimming with charm and humor. Go to Full Review Robbyn Mitchell Tampa Bay Times 05/08/2019
Nothing about this story is fresh or original, and yet it's the most fun you can have without actually suiting up for your own quest. Go to Full Review Dave Trumbore Collider 05/08/2019
[The Seven Deadly Sins] does tend to get a bit gropey and pervy at times, and it doubles down on the fan service, but if you look past that, The Seven Deadly Sins is a solid action series. Go to Full Review Sean Aitchison CBR 05/08/2019
There are tons of great fights, interesting and endearingly strange characters, and the animation and designs of the series are brilliant. If you're looking for a great gateway anime, Netflix has provided a basic, but exciting answer in Seven Deadly Sins. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Calvin O @Caltus Dec 19 A great and fun action anime. I like the second opening of this season 1. I like the characters, the animation and the action sequences. I suggest 14 and up. If mature enough 12 and up. The English dub is pretty good for the most part. If you like shonen anime, give it a shot. 24 of 30 See more Joshua H @SnoopySoup11 Jul 30 5/10 Male characters were sick, some of the best characters ever, Escanor, meliodas, and ban stood out. However, plot just repeated itself every season, dialogue was typically anime conversations, over sexualized the females and made them sound cringey. See more TronenqaCat_CHAN Jul 15 It's a good series, as the seasons progress, you discover a lot about the life of each deadly sin, what each one represents, and why it's important, telling us the story of an impossible love. It's very beautiful, and if you really look at every detail, you'll realize many things that aren't shown in the series. I recommend this series if you don't know what to watch on Netflix. See more The Cursed Legion @GAVINSISEMORE 01/21/2025 The story is well made and well animated the characters are really enjoyable and fun. Some times the show gets a little overbearing and silly, it's hard to tell if it was made for a really young audience or adult animation. See more SomeWhatKindofly 0 @tvperson19 02/27/2024 The manga is a lot better and even though both this anime and manga are at most a 4/5 for some reason I just love it. Very entertaining, good characters, decent plot, and it gets much better when the ten commandments get introduced. See more Arch O 01/04/2024 Quite creative and inventive. Very entertaining.
