18.December.2019 | ANIME&GAME / MUSIC

Japanese visual kei rock band SID released their new album Shonin Yokkyu on September 4, 2019. The four-member band embarked on a tour to promote the record, and at the finale show held at Tokyo International Forum Hall A, they performed their new song delete for the first time which it was announced will be used as the new opening theme for the ongoing TV anime series The Seven Deadly Sins: Wrath of the Gods from January 2020 onward.

The crowd’s reaction to the song was huge, and excitement only grows as we count the days to hearing it in the anime series.

 

SID said: “We were given the opportunity to perform the opening theme for The Seven Deadly Sins: Wrath of the Gods. We are honoured to be able to collaborate with an anime that has the world excited. ‘delete’ is a song with a message to those people who want to get rid of their past and present, but also living with strength. We would love it if people came to know about us through the anime series.—SID”

  • The Seven Deadly Sins: Grudge of Edinburgh Part 1 Gets New Key Visual

    19.December.2022 | ANIME&GAME / MOVIE

    The Seven Deadly Sins: Grudge of Edinburgh Part 1 will air on Netflix worldwide in December 2022. The new animated film was penned by the original series creator Nakaba Suzuki. The story will focus on Tristan, the son of the protagonist Meliodas, and his mother Elizabeth, and follows the previous two films The Seven Deadly Sins the Movie: Prisoners of the Sky in 2018 and The Seven Deadly Sins: Cursed By Light in 2021.  The new main visual shows Tristan and his sidekicks as they prepare to take on their toughest enemies yet. “I wanted to depict the story of King Arthur in my own way,” said original author Nakaba Suzuki. “This story couldn’t be told without the original The Seven Deadly Sins series.”   The Seven Deadly Sins takes place in an ancient time when humans, demons, goddesses, fairies, and giants all lived together. The original series was a prelude to an overarching story that Suzuki planned over many long years. “I always wanted to create fantasy works, even back when I was a rookie,” Suzuki said. “I finally started The Seven Deadly Sins when I was finally at the level to do so, and this important piece of the story will fill the gap between the previous series and the currently-running Four Knights of the Apocalypse.” The creator also commented on the key visual for the film. “I wanted something cool, first and foremost. I’m happy with the finished product!” The new film takes place 14 years after the events of the original series. Prince Tristan is tormented by his inability to control two great powers: the Demon Clan power of his father, Meliodas, and the Goddess Clan power of his mother, Elizabeth. When his mother’s life is threatened, Tristan flees the kingdom and heads toward Edinburgh, where Deathpierce,  once a member of a group of the kingdom’s Holy Knights, the Pleiades of the Azure Sky, maintains his castle. Ayumu Murase and Mikako Komatsu will play the roles of Tristan as a young man and boy, respectively. Additional cast members include Yuuki Kaji as Meliodas, Sora Amamiya as Elizabeth, and Yohei Azakami as Deathpierce.
