So what do you guys think of this manga? The setting is pretty standard, although you can't go wrong with medieval fantasy not!Britain. Nothing exceptional, but solid at least. The pacing is good, there weren't any chapters that felt unnecessary and like they're just trying to drag out the story to make more money. The power creep is absolutely real, though, and although I've seen worse cases it is the series' biggest flaw in my opinion. On a site note, I like how in the current arc Ban isn't undergoing some sort of super specific, rough training to catch up to his comrades in arms, but instead makes use of his immortality to support them
The characters are fairly interesting and memorable, but some of them lack characterization. I wouldn't really care if we were talking about side characters here, but pic related really doesn't have much of a character outside of "notice me, Merlin" and "I am the stronk". I think one of the strongest points though, ironically, are the romance sub plots. Sure, there was a bit of blue balling with King and Diane, but at least it went somewhere other than a cheap, quick marriage scene at the end of the series. The plot is decent, the overaching story arc of Meliodas and Elizabeth is just heart breaking, though I think they could have fleshed that out a bit better, but they will probably add depth to it for the final stretch of the series. This series has quite a number of personal tragedies and they're all being pulled off rather well.
It's a fucking shame they officially introduced power levels, though.

Nakaba is very good at making minimal but pretty backgrounds and motion in the action scenes, but not very good at storytelling

Turned to shit at about the Hendricksen reveal, its only literal saving grace is the meme Sun man
I'm kinda pissed how fast Vivian was killed (she didn't deserved that imo).
I wanted to see something more about her relationship with Merlin and why she despices her former teacher.

Tsk tsk tsk, but that’s exactly what he’s doing in the Not!Hyperbolic time chamber
