Story

This is a world in which fairies, goddesses, and demons exist. ‘The Seven Deadly Sins’ is a legendary group of criminal knights and a princess who saved the Kingdom of Liones when it was on the verge of destruction by demons. A bit of time has passed since Liones has been saved…

To celebrate the king’s birthday, the Seven Deadly Sins have come to look for a special ingredient, the Sky Fish. Leaders Meliodas and talking pig Hawk are blown up to the Sky Castle up above the clouds when they go too high into the sky to catch a Sky Fish. The people who live in the Sky Castle have wings, and when they see Meliodas, they mistake him for a different boy who has broken their law and put him in jail. The sky people are actually preparing for a ceremony they hold once every 3000 years, which is held to prevent an evil monster breaking its seal and getting free. However, a group of strong demons led by Berylion called ‘The Six Black Knights’ is aiming to worsen the fate of the sky people by breaking the seal. In order to protect them from these brutal and cruel demons, Meliodas and the others are going to face the Six Black Knights!
