[dramatic music playing]

[narrator] The Demon King obtains Meliodas' body.

Ban rushes back to King and the others

who are struggling against their enemy's overwhelming power.

Ban fights the Demon King in the present world

while Meliodas fights him at the same time in the spirit world.

Meliodas almost falls into despair

after the Demon King tells him a despicable lie.

But then…

We are here, Meliodas.

[Meliodas gasping]

Is it really you?

[Escanor gasping]

[King crying]

[Diane whimpering, sniffling]

You're all here.

But why?

I can't tell if I'm dreaming or if you're here for real.

This is no dream. We're right beside you.

We're in spirit form, but we're here nonetheless.

[Escanor sobbing]

Captain, you're… you're your real self, right?

It's really him!

Same old Captain as always.

Ban's fighting. He's in the present world.

[Gowther grunting]

[Elizabeth] Meliodas,

don't give up!

We are all here to help

in whatever way we can.

[Ban grunting, groaning]

Damn the Seven Deadly Sins…

I don't understand.

How are they able to meddle with my spirit?

[Demon King grunting]

[Demon King] It's Gowther.

That worthless bastard!

[Ban] Never underestimate the Seven Deadly Sins.

If you do, you'll pay for it dearly.

[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 12 WE'LL ALL BE YOUR STRENGTH

[tense music playing]

[Demon King] Gowther, this is your doing.

We are now in the captain's spirit world.

And as such, we are unable to directly intervene.

But that doesn't mean we can't support you by…

Huh?

Why'd you stop? What's wrong?

[Gowther chuckling]

[King gasping]

[Gowther] You gotta read the room.

[Elizabeth grunting]

[Meliodas laughing]

How do I look?

Did I age a bit in my century in Purgatory?

[Elizabeth chuckling lightly]

Not at all.

[Demon King yelling]

[Demon King] Die!

[Demon King grunting]

-[Escanor whimpering] -[Elizabeth gasping]

[dramatic music playing]

[Demon King] How dare you!

[Diane gasping]

[Gowther gasping]

[Demon King] What is this power?

[Meliodas] Their presence here gives me strength.

Their belief in me gives me power,

one like no other.

You have no chance of winning now.

[Demon King grunting, screaming]

[Demon King] Such arrogance!

You say I have no chance of winning?

[Demon King panting]

[Ban groaning]

Well then…

I'll just have to cut this off at the source

and end your power!

[both] No, you won't!

[Demon King grunting]

How dare the likes of the Four Archangels defy the will of a god!

[both grunting]

[intense music playing]

[Demon King yelling]

[both gasping]

SIGHING SAGE

[Ban] It's not just Archangels,

Humanity will be defying you too!

[Ban grunting]

Now, Snatch!

[Ban grunting]

All of you are outsiders.

Stay out of family business.

[Demon groaning]

We have no defense against something like that!

[gasping]

[Ludociel yelling]

[Demon King] A futile resistance.

Brother!

I will not lose any of them ever again.

Not my brother, nor my friends.

[both gasping]

Please. You won't last more than five seconds.

[Ban] Then I'll stop you even faster!

[Demon King] We'll see about that!

[Ban grunting]

[Demon King yelling]

You bastard!

[Demon King grunting]

[Ban] This is bad.

[Ludociel straining]

[Ludociel] It's taking everything I've got to fight this fiend.

At this rate, they're all going to…

[straining]

[Demon groaning]

Wait. Who was that?

There's someone other than Mr. Ban who can withstand such immense power?

[Ludociel grunting, groaning]

Zeldris, why are you…

Insolent child!

What do you think you're doing?

Answer me!

[dramatic music playing]

[Demon King grunting]

I've got pressing business to discuss with Meliodas.

It's personal, so I'd like you to leave, Father.

But first, there's a related matter I'd like to ask you about.

[Demon King] Hmm?

Tell me, concerning the execution of the Vampire Clan,

did you order it knowing about my relationship with Gelda?

You're just a fool who can't recognize a parent's compassion

to save his son from illness.

[Zeldris] What?

[tense music playing]

[Demon King] You are weak, and weakness is an illness.

You really thought I might not know?

The Commandment that I bestowed to you informed me about everything.

How you repeatedly met in secret,

you and that Vampire maiden who was poisoning your mind.

And how you defied my orders and sealed the Vampire Clan away

instead of executing them.

[Zeldris grunting]

What a fool.

I heard you even had the ludicrous aspiration

that someday you'd steal away the throne of the Demon King,

and create a Hell where all could live peacefully.

Ridiculous!

I tolerated it since you, at least, had the merit of your submission.

But that ends now.

HERMIT OF MOMENTS

[Demon King yelling]

[Demon King screaming]

[intense music playing]

Amazing! Go, Captain!

Give it to him good, Captain!

[Demon King yelling]

[Demon King breathing heavily]

[Demon King] I cannot fathom that darkness of yours

It's baffling how such a thing could manage

to pierce through my armor and flesh.

Are those clusters made from condensed darkness?

They have immeasurable mass and power.

Yeah.

He came up with the idea at the Druids' training cave.

His inspiration came from my Condense Power.

But now, since the Captain's magical power has increased,

that attack must be even greater than before.

[Meliodas] It's a funny thing,

just knowing that you're all here with me,

it brings me energy.

[upbeat music playing]

Thank you, all.

King and Diane,

Gowther,

Merlin,

and Escanor,

and Elizabeth.

I'm fine now, thanks to you.

Let's put an end to this so we can save Ban!

[Elizabeth exclaiming]

[Demon King yelling]

[metal clanking]

[Demon King gasping]

[Demon King growling]

Captain, listen!

I am a man who is an insufferable pain during the day and useless at night!

But for you, I am happy to fight until the moment I take my last breath!

You're my dear friend!

You've saved me time and time again.

I'm so grateful!

Thanks, Escanor!

Don't stop, Captain!

If you give up on us, even for a moment,

we're going to have to make good on that promise.

Leave it to you to make threats at a time like this.

Because of you, I was finally able to get my heart back!

But you didn't do it alone. All the Sins made it happen!

So, for finding the Seven Deadly Sins, you have to come back!

You brought us together.

Damn right, I did!

Captain, please!

We need to talk!

I've gotta have a discussion with you face-to-face and apologize!

Let me remind you.

The Seven Deadly Sins' Dragon Sin is the strongest of all of us!

For sure!

When this is over, we're gonna drink all night!

All of us, together!

Meliodas! We'll be waiting!

[upbeat music playing]

[Meliodas grunting]

And I'll be right there.

[metal clanking]

[Demon King grunting]

[Zeldris growling, grunting]

[Zeldris groaning]

[Zeldris] Meliodas, I still can't bring myself to forgive you

for betraying the Demon Clan.

Even so, I have to recognize you for one thing.

Try as I might, I wasn't able to possess what you possess.

[Zeldris groaning]

The resolve to turn anyone into your enemy

for the sake of those important to you.

Ominous Nebula!

[Zeldris] Hmm.

[Ban grunting]

[Ban groaning]

[breathing heavily]

I got rid of the nuisance!

Now hurry up and get the Demon King out of Meliodas' body already!

[Ban gasping]

[Zeldris coughing]

But… but why?

Magical attacks shouldn't have any sort of effect on Zeldris at all!

Yes, that's true.

But I suppose it slipped your mind that power was lent to him by me.

[Zeldris] Meliodas, it's in your hands now.

You could change everything.

It's up to you.

[dramatic music playing]

[groaning] You bastard!

[Demon King grunting]

You're gonna pay for what you've done!

How could you do that to your son?

Your own flesh and blood!

Who the hell do you think you are?

I'm the Demon King, Human!

And those who are weak aren't needed in my lineage!

-[Demon King roaring] -[Ban grunting]

[coughing]

[Ban] Whatever!

[Demon King groaning]

[Demon King groaning]

[Demon King] Damn you.

This is unforgivable!

This is the end, Demon King.

It's time for you to vanish out of me!

Trillion Dark!

[intense music playing]

TRILLION DARK

[Meliodas screaming]

[grunting, groaning]

[Ban grunting]

[Demon King groaning]

[Ban panting]

[Demon King grunting]

[Demon King yelling]

[Demon King screaming]

[Ban] Oh, what now?

The Demon King's in his last throes,

and it appears he wants to take the Captain with him too.

Let's drive him out now.

We just gotta figure out some way to stop this lunatic.

On top of everything else, you're a sore loser!

[dramatic music playing]

[Ban straining]

Now, Ark!

And Perfect Cube!

And Pollen Garden!

[all] Combined Technique. Triple Prison.

[Demon King screaming]

COMBINED TECHNIQUE TRIPLE PRISON

Hang in there, Captain!

[Ban grunting]

[Demon King roaring]

[Hawk squealing] Now it's my turn!

Ultimate secret, Meat Darkness!

[Hawk exclaiming]

Careful, Master!

Have some Diamond Tower!

[Demon King screaming]

I'm leaving the rest to you, Ban! Get him!

You're through, Demon King!

It's time to bring the Captain back!

[music fades]

[Diane] What… what happened?

[Meliodas groaning] I feel like crap.

Every single inch of my body is banged up.

We've barely been keeping it together ourselves out here.

Ow. [chuckling]

[scattered chuckling]

Good to see you, Meliodas.

Welcome back.

[Meliodas chuckling]

[Diane giggling]

[triumphant music playing]

[both laughing]
