The anime adaptation of Four Knights of the Apocalypse, the sequel series to The Seven Deadly Sins, has garnered a positive reception from fans. Produced by Telecom Animation Film, the series follows Percival, a young man who has lived a quiet life with his grandfather on the isolated God’s Finger. Although content in his peaceful surroundings, Percival dreams of adventure. His life takes an unexpected turn when a mysterious intruder claims to be connected to him, setting the stage for a journey that promises to be both thrilling and perilous.
While Four Knights of the Apocalypse is a direct sequel to The Seven Deadly Sins, it has managed to carve out its own identity, offering a fresh experience even for those unfamiliar with the original series’ conclusion. The anime skillfully weaves in elements from the original story while establishing its own narrative.
The second season of Four Knights of the Apocalypse is ramping up with the highly anticipated Demon World arc, and a brand-new key visual has been released to hype up this exciting chapter. The poster showcases main characters Percival, Tristan, Lancelot, and Gawain, standing against a backdrop that hints at the impending dangers. The Demon King, Zeldris, looms ominously behind them, while the Knight of Chaos, Mortlach, stands as an imposing obstacle in their path.
Yuji Kaji, the voice actor for Zeldris, expressed his enthusiasm for the upcoming arc, saying, “Sorry to have kept you waiting, everyone! Zeldris finally appears in this series! What position will he take this time? Keep an eye on his relationship with Gerda as you watch!”
While The Seven Deadly Sins has faced its share of criticism over character development and plot choices, Four Knights of the Apocalypse has thus far impressed with its thoughtful character writing and world-building. The sequel has skillfully incorporated characters from the original series, creating a seamless connection without forcing any unnecessary plot devices.
Moreover, the production quality from Telecom Animation Film marks a significant improvement over previous adaptations, further endearing the series to fans. As Four Knights of the Apocalypse continues to develop, its strong storytelling and enhanced animation promise to captivate viewers in the episodes to come.
