Original subtitles

[dramatic music playing]

[narrator] The battle in Camelot intensified,

but eventually Mael, King, and the other reinforcements

finally put the Original Demon to rest.

Zeldris eventually collapsed after his desperate attempts to resist.

And Merlin's Chrono Coffin is finally completed.

It seemed Meliodas' transformation into the Demon King had been prevented,

and the Holy War would end.

However…

[Zeldris cackling]

That means it's your turn to fulfill our promise.

Do it, Demon King.

I put you through a lot of trouble, didn't I?

You and the Seven Deadly Sins.

Meliodas, is… is that you?

[suspenseful music playing]

[both gasping]

The rare animal too.

Rare?

[Meliodas chuckling]

You're not Meliodas.

Tell me who you are.

Huh?

[Escanor gasping]

[intense music playing]

[narrator] This is a tale of ancient times,

An era before the human and non-human worlds were forever divided.

[fire blazing]

[narrator] A second Holy War!

In the battle over the fate of Britannia,

not even the gods could determine what was to come.

Even so, the conflict rages on.

There are those who fight to destroy the evil rule

and protect the future of those they hold dear.

These warriors are known as the chosen heroes.

They are the Seven Deadly Sins!

EPISODE 11 THE ONE WHO STANDS AGAINST A GOD

Sorry, Elaine.

I'm sure you know if the world wasn't crumbling around us,

we'd be on a trip by ourselves right now.

No. I understand.

You're needed now. Save Meliodas and everyone.

Wait for me a little longer, okay?

Take care of yourself, Ban.

[grunting] He disappeared! [gasping]

[Guila giggling]

Yes. He did.

[ominous music playing]

[Zeldris groaning]

[Zeldris] Meliodas,

I did my part and fulfilled my promise.

Tell me where Gelda is.

Oh, Zeldris, you fool.

After all this time,

your heart is still bound to that lowly Vampire maiden?

[Zeldris gasping]

I'm disappointed.

You and your brother utterly disgust me to no end.

His tone's completely off.

I don't think this guy's the Captain at all.

I'm with you.

Meliodas has never called me "rare beast." Not once.

[Elizabeth] I knew it.

[Merlin] Ugh. Not good.

There's no way.

What stands before us is simply impossible

This can't be.

Why are you in Meliodas' body,

Father!

[Demon King] Hmm.

What exactly does this mean?

You told us what we needed to do to make Meliodas the new Demon King.

We did everything you asked of us!

[dramatic music playing]

Did you honestly believe

I would pass on the throne to this traitor?

That was my true goal, a new physical form.

Young, strong flesh to house me.

The various Commandments are fragments of my power.

So, for Meliodas to take them all in and become the Demon King,

meant nothing more than to prepare himself to become my new vessel.

You've no right to do that.

Leave his body at once!

This is your own flesh and blood!

So, act like it. Do something fatherly for your son!

For my son, huh?

Ah, I see.

You think fulfilling my son's earnest wish is my fatherly duty, right?

Very well. I've thought of a good idea.

Elizabeth, I've decided to undo your curse of Infinite Reincarnation.

What?

[oinking]

Well, what do you know?

This guy's actually a pretty reasonable father, after all.

Lifting Elizabeth's curse, and willingly at that?

Way to go!

[tense music playing]

And then I'll kill you as cruelly as possible.

[Elizabeth gasping]

[Demon King] I wonder how he'll react when he sees your cold, lifeless body.

[Elizabeth grunting]

Will his despair in knowing he'll never see you again

be enough to make him lose all hope, craving death?

Or will his relief that you've finally been released from the curse

bring him peace, and end his reason to live?

Either way, the outcome is quite convenient for me.

I believe you and the Seven Deadly Sins know that my words ring true.

[Gowther] All clear, Merlin!

[Merlin] Perfect Cube!

PERFECT CUBE

[Hawk screaming]

Let me in too!

[Hawk exclaiming]

[Hawk] Thank you.

King, Diane, listen up!

Assume that attack magic doesn't work on the Demon King!

[both] Roger that!

[dramatic music playing]

No matter what,

we'll protect Elizabeth till our last breath!

[Diane yelling]

[Diane grunting]

[Diane gasping]

We won't let you have the Captain's body!

-[King gasping] -[Mael] I will assist too!

[Mael yelling]

No way.

Our attacks don't even get a response out of him,

yet he's completely defended against them.

-[Mael gasping] -[Diane gasping, grunting]

[both groaning]

[all yelling]

[Hawk groaning]

[Hawk coughing]

He's strong, but we must find some way to stop him!

We can't just let him kill Elizabeth!

Yes, but how? We're simply no match for him.

[King] This is bad.

With back-to-back battles, my power is at its limit now.

I don't understand.

Your resistance is pointless.

I offered to release you,

to end your curse, and give you a peaceful death.

[Hawk] Hey, Demon King!

[Demon King] Huh?

If you're going to do bad things to Elizabeth,

I, Hawk, formerly the Scraps Captain who now goes by King of Scraps,

will be the one to deal with you!

When the King of Scraps gets serious, you have no idea what could happen.

I could swallow you whole at once!

[Hawk exclaiming]

[Hawk] Demon King's scared now! Trembling with fear!

-Shaking in his boots! -Hawk, stop! You shouldn't provoke him!

[Hawk exclaiming]

The fool. Why would he do that?

Is that creature an idiot?

[Demon King chuckling]

[Hawk] Huh?

[Elizabeth gasping]

[Hawk groaning]

[Demon King] I find your continued presence annoying.

Even your face invokes anger.

I'll send you off to your brother now.

Your time has come, pig.

-[Demon King's grip tightening] -Stop! Don't kill him!

[Hawk whimpering]

Huh?

Hey, Captain. Can you hear me in there?

[Elizabeth gasping]

Look who's back.

I knew it. I had faith he would.

Hey, Ban.

[upbeat music playing]

What do you say you and I kick this unwelcome bastard

out of your body, huh?

You're back

just in the nick of time too.

Kick the Demon King out?

How arrogant of you.

You think you'll be able to do so alone?

Quit acting so rash all the time, Master.

Look after him for me, okay?

[Hawk groaning]

[Gowther gasping, grunting]

Ban, wait!

Even if you're immortal, you can't handle him alone!

Unfortunately, I'm no longer immortal.

[King gasping]

[Ban] I revived Elaine.

To do so, I kinda had to use up the Fountain of Youth.

You what?

Then that means you'll never…

[knuckles cracking]

Right. Let's do this.

It's eviction day for you, bud.

Oh, you foolish Human child.

Behold the power of a god.

[dramatic music playing]

[both grunting]

[all grunting]

[all yelling]

[King panting]

Oh, no!

Camelot could be…

Diane, everyone all right?

Mael and the others seem safe.

However, Ban's out in the storm somewhere.

What should we do?

E-even so, he has to be okay, doesn't he?

[Gowther] All around us there's an incredibly dense energy storm

that's brimming with malice.

I'm afraid that no creature will be able to endure it.

[Escanor] That can't be.

I see.

You're enduring it.

[dramatic music playing]

Compared to the conditions of Purgatory,

this is a walk in the park.

[Demon King gasping]

[Ban grunting]

[Demon King grunting]

[heavy thud]

What's happening out there?

Why did the storm suddenly stop?

[King groaning]

[Diane] King!

You okay?

[King groaning]

[King chuckling]

Brother! Look at that!

[gasping]

[Ban grunting]

[dramatic music crescendos]

[Ban grunting]

[Ban straining]

[blows landing rapidly]

[Ban grunting]

[Ban efforting]

[Ban grunting, groaning]

[Ban groaning, yelling]

[Ban grunting]

[Ban panting]

That was so foolish.

Did you really think that you could handle me all by yourself?

[Demon King] Hmm. [groaning]

[Demon King groaning]

[Ban] You're such an idiot. I'm not alone.

[Escanor] A-amazing!

Mr. Ban's attacks are effective.

Yeah. You're right about that, but that's not all.

[Diane] This energy must be…

No doubt about it.

Stemming from inside the Demon King, it must be him.

[dramatic music playing]

[Demon King] My son?

I see that you've returned,

but I won't let you have it your way.

I am the Demon King!

Delivering death is my duty.

Administering fear is my mission.

You know this.

[rumbling]

[grunting] Yeah, I do, and that's your sin!

It… it's unbelievable.

The Demon King is backing away from Mr. Ban's attacks.

The captain's fighting, giving it his all in the spirit world.

His perseverance won't let him quit.

Get him! Knead him and mince him up!

Show that Demon King who's boss!

[Diane] Easy, Hawk! Don't forget that's the captain's body!

Ah, crap! That's right.

Impressive.

He's stronger. Much more so than before he went to Purgatory.

Yeah.

Even if he's no longer immortal,

this power, whatever it is, is far greater.

Meliodas,

Sir Ban…

[wind whooshing]

[Demon King] How irksome.

I knew I should have dealt with you two properly back in Purgatory.

[Demon King yelling]

[Meliodas grunting]

[Demon King] How is it that you're able to deflect my strike?

I suggest that you give up and get out of here.

Your main body is feeling lonely in Purgatory.

[Demon King grunting]

[Demon King groaning, grunting]

[Ban grunting]

[Demon King] This is futile.

Now that you have awakened to the powers of the Demon King,

even if you drive me out,

you won't be able to stay here in this world for long.

Not even for a day.

[Meliodas] That works for me.

As long as I have enough time to undo Elizabeth's curse

and say goodbye to the Seven Deadly Sins.

Now, let's get this over with.

[Ban yelling]

[both grunting]

-[Demon King groaning] -[Ban grunting]

What's wrong, Demon King?

Is your son's body suddenly harder to use?

Or something else. Maybe you were rejected by your son.

There's a noticeable difference.

I mean, the real him is way stronger than this.

[footsteps running]

[Demon King cackling]

So you're not seeing the situation outside, I take it.

Then I should be the one to enlighten you.

What is it?

I dealt with the Elizabeth situation ages ago.

I did so after my curse was undone.

[dramatic music playing]

[Demon King] Even if you somehow manage to return,

you'll never get the chance to hold your loved one again.

[Meliodas gasping]

You're lying! Cut the crap!

[Demon King] You really can't accept reality, can you?

[Meliodas] I…

didn't make it in time?

[choir vocalizing intensely]

[Meliodas] What's happening?

My eyelids feel heavy.

[Ban gasping, grunting]

[thudding]

[Ban grunting]

[Hawk groaning]

Ban, no!

[Ban straining]

[Ban groaning]

Don't get carried away.

Ban's starting to get crushed.

[Ban struggling]

But why? Did the Demon King's power increase?

Meliodas, no!

Don't let him do it! He'll use your hands to hurt Sir Ban!

Captain, please!

Can't you hear all of us calling out to you?

It's a useless attempt.

Meliodas won't hear your voices, no matter how loud you scream.

This is awful!

-[Gowther] Listen! -Huh?

I may have an idea.

To know despair here in the spirit world

is the same thing as embracing death.

[Meliodas grunting]

[Meliodas groaning]

[Demon King] Sleep, my son.

Rest your eyes.

[Meliodas panting]

[Demon King] All of these other matters, just leave them to your father.

[Meliodas groaning]

[Demon King] You have no one else waiting for you now.

There is only you and I.

Just go to sleep.

Just go to sleep.

Just go to sleep.

Drift off to sleep.

[music stops]

-[Elizabeth] No. -[Meliodas groaning]

[Demon King grunting]

[Meliodas struggling]

We are here, Meliodas.

-[dramatic music playing] -[Meliodas gasping]
