Okay, let's talk about The Seven Deadly Sins, specifically Season 4. Or, as some of us call it, the season that felt like it took seven deadly YEARS to arrive on Netflix.
The Endless Wait: Was it a Sin?
Remember waiting? I do. It felt like Eternity, the wait was eternal. I was starting to think I’d learn to speak Elvish before Netflix finally dropped it.
Seriously, the speculation! Was it coming? Was it cancelled? Was it trapped in some kind of demon realm legal dispute? The suspense, oh the suspense!
My (Potentially Unpopular) Opinion
Now, here’s where things get spicy. I'm going to be honest. Was the *fourth season* worth all the hype? Maybe... and here comes the unpopular opinion... maybe not entirely.
Don't get me wrong! I love Meliodas and the gang. But did the animation style change a little too much for some? I'll leave that up to you.
Animation Style: A Deal-Breaker?
Okay, let's be real. The animation shift. It was... noticeable. Did it take some getting used to? Absolutely.
Some say it was an improvement. Others? Well, let's just say they miss the OG animation like they miss their favorite pair of socks that mysteriously disappeared in the laundry.
Look, I'm not saying it was bad. Just... different. It was a change that I definitely didn't love. What do you think?
The Plot Thickens (and Thickens... and Thickens)
The plot, though! It was dense! So much to take in. Who was betraying who this week? Keeping track was harder than doing my taxes.
I felt like I needed a whiteboard and some red string to connect all the characters and their motivations. Maybe a flow chart too. Or several.
There were some genuinely fantastic moments. But also some moments where I was checking my phone, contemplating what I'd have for dinner. Don't judge me!
Ban's Immortal Appeal (Still Got It)
But let’s talk about the positives! Ban is still the coolest immortal thief ever. Seriously. I would sell my soul for his coat.
And Elizabeth's constant hope and kindness? Honestly, she's an inspiration. I aspire to be that optimistic, even when facing down a demon lord.
The sins are all incredibly lovable in their own way. Even Escanor, with his... unique... daytime persona. Sunshine!
So, Was it Worth the Wait?
In conclusion? Season 4 of The Seven Deadly Sins was... an experience. A rollercoaster of emotions, animation styles, and plot twists.
Was it perfect? No. But was it still entertaining? Mostly! Did it make me want to rewatch the entire series from the beginning? Probably!
Ultimately, I'm glad I watched it. Even if I did spend half the time squinting at the screen and trying to remember who was related to whom. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go rewatch Ban scenes on Youtube.
