It was a great decision to make TSDS into a multimedia project. I assume this is still not only for adults.

DAT STAFF THO!

Hmm. I think I'll just watch Nanatsu no Taizai instead.

I'm getting a strong "it will be a short-form" vibe here.

Finally! I thought this was dead. I'm not a huge fan of the art style they're using for it though. The faces and proportions look a bit weird in particular.

Um, Japan, you know you have overused the "personifications of the seven deadly sins" trope when you have two anime with basically the same title airing within barely a few years of one another. Not to mention that Full Metal Alchemist did it better about ten years ago (both versions of FMA did it better. Let's not nitpick).

considering on the animation company that is doing this project, its a high chance that this thing might end up more like valkyrie drive mermaid.

If this is more like VDM, we would be seeing lots of yuri. Queen's Blade rarely makes its own yuri and I am sure that, as much as it dismays me, this new fetishistic anime will do the same. Besides, Hobby Japan publishes QB books and some of the staff members have worked for the anime series.

Only thing I can notice is Wrath's arm in the official art at the top is way too long.

This. I've been seeing these characters in figure form for months and always thought they were characters from Nakaba's manga that had yet to be introduced or belonged to a sort of spinoff. This is the first time I hear they're different franchises. Honestly, whoever came up with it second should've used a different title, this is ridiculous. They could've called this multimedia project "Seven Deadly Sins: Underworld" or something along those lines since the characters are named after demons. 'Sides, that kind of subtitle seems to work well with otaku

I was hoping it'd be something like Bikini Warriors... Sad

Actually, was wondering how they'd name it to avoid confusion when I saw the article's name.

As a side note, how does Gluttony stay that thin.
Designs are kinda boring and don't seem to have much to do with their associated sins nor their namesakes. Where are all the flies buzzing around Beelzebub?

Digging the music though.
