Story        :

The Seven Deadly Sins were once an active group of knights in the region of Britannia, who disbanded after they supposedly plotted to overthrow the Liones Kingdom. Their supposed defeat came at the hands of the Holy Knights, but rumors continued to persist that they were still alive. Ten years later, the Holy Knights staged a coup d'état and captured the king, becoming the new, tyrannical rulers of the kingdom. The third princess, Elizabeth, then starts out on a journey to find the Seven Deadly Sins and enlist their help in taking back the kingdom.

 

Characters :

 

Meliodas

The leader of the Seven Deadly Sins and the Sin of Wrath with the symbol of the Dragon. He is the main protagonist and owner of the Boar Hat (豚の帽子亭) bar. Despite having the appearance of a child, Meliodas is actually a lot older and very powerful. His most distinctive trait is his Dragon symbol carved at the top of his arm, just below his shoulders. He has demon blood flowing in his veins. He is very perverted when it comes to Elizabeth.

 

Elizabeth Liones

The Third Princess of the Kingdom of Lyonesse who, along with Meliodas, is searching for the Seven Deadly Sins in order to fight against the Holy Knights. She is a main protagonist and becomes a waitress at the Boar Hat bar when she begins traveling with Meliodas. During her adventures with the Seven Deadly Sin captain, she starts to develop feelings for Meliodas and pointed out by Gowther, is in love with Meliodas, much to her embarrassment.

 

 

Hawk

A talking pig and Meliodas's companion. He is introduced as the cleaner of the Boar Hat bar who helps clean the disgusting food scraps. He often scolds Meliodas for his perverted ways.

 

Ban

As the only survivor of the Fairy King's Forest, he took the blame of, and was convicted for, destroying the forest, and killing its guardian saint, Elaine. As a result, he was sentenced to death, and became known as the Sin of Greed due to his apparent greed for immortality.

 

 

King

After supposedly ending Helbram's life, King took on the sentence for ignoring Helbram's mass murdering of humans continuously over the a period of five hundred years which is close to sparking a war between humans and fairies. He was consequently sentenced to an imprisonment for a thousand years, and was recognized as the Sin of Sloth as he ignored the atrocities committed and turned a blind eye.

 

 

The characters above are just some of the main ones, there are more characters are in the anime series. You may watch them in the anime series. OK, let us take a sneak peek of "The Deadly Seven Sins"as below :-

 

 

 

 

Personally, I like this anime series as it is funny sometimes and the talking pig, Hawk is very cute. The Princess Elizabeth is lovely. Another, the giant girl, Diane, she is a girl who likes Meliodas very much. Overall she is a lively girl.

 

Well, the fighting scenes in the anime series are good too. I think it is amazing of the art works. Thus, I think the ladies would not mind to watch such anime series. FYI, The show's first opening theme song is "Netsujō no Spectrum" performed by Ikimono-gakari and the second opening theme is "Seven Deadly Sins" which is performed by Man with a Mission, while the first ending theme is titled "7-Seven" which is a collaboration between Flow and Granrodeo and the second ending theme is "Season" which is a major label debut of Alisa Takigawa.

Different Dimension -- Amnesia

Konnichiwa minasan! I have watched a J-anime series lately which the story is interesting. It could be considered as sci-fi and could be not. Anyway, this anime series is adapted from a visual novel of the same name. The protagonist is a heroine.

The title of the J-anime series is called "Amnesia". In Amnesia, the male characters that the female character can interact with are based on the symbolic suit symbols from a card deck with the following storylines (commonly known as 'routes') in the game: Heart, Spade, Clover, Diamond and Joker. Depending on which route is chosen, the player's relationship with each character is different.

 

Title          : Amnesia

Genre        : Romance, Sci-fi, Comedy

Episodes    : 12 + 1 OVA

Status        : Completed

Story         :

This story takes place in a fictional town, in a fictional country, in a fictional world. One morning, a young lady awakens to find that she has lost all her memories prior to that morning. Her life, her relationships, her very name—all gone. All that's left is a cell phone with numbers and names she doesn't recognize and Orion, a young boy that only she appears to be able to see. With Orion's guidance, she struggles to make sense of herself, a boyfriend she doesn't know and the thousand and one little things that make up a daily life. But with no memories left, the only alternative is to forge new ones, even if that means leaving old loves behind.

Characters Description :

Heroine (主人公, Shujinkō)

The heroine of the story who has lost her memories. In the game, Orion follows and supports her throughout each route to regain her memories. In the anime adaptation, she has no apparent name, and it is unclear as to which route she chooses or if she chooses one at all. She is 20 years old and a first-year university student. She also works part-time at "Meido no Hitsuji".

 

Shin (シン)

Shin is 19 years old, and a high school student studying hard to get into university. Both Shin and Toma are childhood friends of Heroine. His father accidentally killed a man who was under the influence of alcohol - he was bullied and avoided because of this during his childhood. Shin is trying to make a successful future for himself to stop people from comparing him with his father. He enjoys playing card games and is a member of the track-and-field club. His favourite animals are dogs, and his love for melon soda is evident in the anime, game and several drama CDs. His symbolic route in the game is the 'Heart' route. Shin loves the heroine in one of the worlds.

 

Ikki (イッキ)

Ikki is 22 years old and a fourth year university student. He is best friends with Kent. Ikki's hobbies include playing darts, billiards, and table tennis, as well as solving Kent's math puzzles. He is notably skilled at 'anything requiring him to use his hands'. His favourite animals are apparently hamsters. When he was a kid he wished on a shooting star for girls to like him and was granted with eyes that make him irresistible to any woman. However as time passed, he began to think of it as a curse. These eyes, however, do not affect the heroine. Ikki is always surrounded by girls and has a fan club that would do literally anything for him to be theirs - they bully the heroine often due her being close to him. He dates women for three months before they break up with him due to his fanclub having the rule of sharing him and only allowing club members to date him for three months. His symbolic route in the game is the 'Spade' route.

Kent (ケント, Kento)

Kent is 25 years old and a university graduate, as well as Ikki's best friend and came to know the heroine through being her tutor. His parents raised him with the belief that everything has some sort of logical conclusion, thus he believes anything can be solved using logic. His interests include devising math puzzles and observing things. His symbolic route in the game is the 'Clover' route.

 

Toma (トーマ)
Toma is 20 years old and a second year university student. He is a childhood friend of both Heroine and Shin, and acts as an older brother figure to both of them. He loves the heroine Yandere in a few routes. In addition to being in a number of school clubs, including soccer, broadcasting, archery, and the newspaper, Toma enjoys playing basketball, cycling, surfing the internet, playing video games, cooking and reading. His symbolic route in the game is the 'Diamond' route. Toma loves the heroine in one of the worlds.

 

Ukyō (ウキョウ)
Ukyō is a 24 year old photographer with a split personality who seems to know the heroine, but remains distant. He is in a lot of different clubs: triathlon, cheerleading, hula dance, soccer, lacrosse, rugby, kabaddi, dance, art, riding, debate and more. His symbolic route in the game is the 'Joker' route. It is revealed in this route that he wished to Orion's superior to let the heroine live, and thus he has to die on every route where she survives, as they can't live together on the same world.

 

 

Orion (オリオン)

A spirit which came from a completely different world. From the view of humans, he takes the appearance of a twelve year old young boy. He wears eccentric clothing. No one can see or hear him but the heroine.

 

 

There are more characters are available in the series but the above are the main ones. Among all the characters, no doubt, I like the Heroine and I like her to be partner with Toma. I also did not know the reason, but I just feel that Toma fits for her! :)

 

OK, let's take a peek of the "Amnesia" below :-

 

 

 

 

 Well, each other of male characters have their different characters respectively. Orion is cute, but I like Toma and Shin the most. Shin is the good-looking and Toma is the gentle one. However, all of the male characters like the Heroine very much.

 

Well, if you would like to join the world of the Heroine, please click into "Amnesia" to join the different dimension world.

 

Wish you would enjoy watching as I do! :)
