Isolde definitely seems to be a giant, but I don't like the idea or her being Diane's child because of the way Nakaba is writing her character.

She seems the same as early Diane... simping for Tristan like Diane simped for Meliodas.

Fine chapter, setting up more of a mystery then anything. I'm curious how Chion is gonna maintain his cover. Seems like it would be obvious something shady is going on... Not surprising that the others fell so fast when facing trained holy knight without Lancelot around. Tristan looks like I would imagined him to look.

I don't remember it being specified if that's the case. The series made it seem like it was supposed to be a common ability amongst them and King himself was just uniquely unskilled at it until his wings grew to full size.

Given the lack of Fairy development in the series, it's not much of a surprise that the in's and out's are vague, but when you also consider Lancelot's own demonstration of it in combat, you can potentially chalk it up to the skill being broken in most combat situations as you can predict what your opponent is going to do.
You're probably right, since we haven't gotten full lore on the fairies. It does seem strange though, because it seems to be common that the regular fairies were easily tricked, something we've seen happen multiple times. Meanwhile, only a few have shown said power. And if not for Lancelot having it, I would have assumed it was linked to a specific role.

I hope Tristan doesn't a too serious, Dark sasuke like, personality... that serious face better be just for the introduction.
Percival seems to have the same personality Tristan had at the end of NNT and I'm afraid Nakaba changed it because Tristan wasn't the main protagonist anymore
Maybe he has the prideful personality (Lucifer reference). I mean, just look at how his friends are addressing him as "Prince Tristan" and also the way they bowed to him upon his arrival. In normal cases, Tristan should've prohibited them from doing such things, but it seems he didn't.

Wrong. She clearly hit Percy' sword but nothing happened to it!
Percy is buffing his sword with his magic. You can see the aura surrounding and protecting it.

Percy came to the wrong conclusion regarding her magic. To him, it looked like the ground was absorbing the explosion. In actuality, she was planting explosives in the ground. You can see the whisps of her magic in the ground in the panel where Percy is dodging her before they explode.

Then when Percy defends himself with his aura, you can see the aura of her magic being planted into Percy's golem just like they were in the ground. The aura of her explosive in the golem looks just like the whisps that were in the ground.

There is nothing in this chapter that implies the earth is a component in her magic.

Yeah I'm pretty sure regular fairies don't have it. In Lancelots oneshot that's how that human was able to trick all the fairies into buying junk, while Lance knew what he was doing because he could read his heart.

Once Anne realises that Meliodas looks like a kid, I wonder what she'll think of Tristan 🤔

A rivalry between these two girls seems like something Nakaba would do.

I guess Tristan will heal them next and they'll get rid of the traitor. Maybe with Lancelot's help too who shouldn't be far behind and can read minds.

I don't think they are friends. This platoon is probably new. Plus there is a traitor in the group.

The chapter has been good, although Tristan's entrance did not feel as powerful as Lancelot's.
It’s because the stakes were higher in Lancelot’s entrance. They were being chased through the forest by Arthur’s nights and we were explicitly told Arthur’s knights were stronger. Here they’re facing 3 knights under Tristan and only one of them appears to be evil.They’re also in Liones, a way safer place.

The sixth volume is out, here's the link.

TL:
Pic 2:
Repeat after me:
[Demonic tongue]
Like hell I understand you!!

Pic 4:
Title: "Four Knights of the Apocalyose" character design III
~The genesis of Nasiens~
Both don't have good looks.
Box: In the case of Nasiens, unlike Donny I decided on without any hesitation, I thought of giving him more individuality as a companion to continue the travel with Percival. (*I originally planned on removing Donny in the second volume!!)
Another thing: I also wanted to make the character pretty hard to tell whether it's a boy or a girl, so I settled on the current Nasiens.

Pic 5:
Title: "Four Knights of the Apocalypse" character design IV
~The genesis of Angharhad~
I knew it, I look the best as I am!!
The Seven Deadly Sins heroines were above all characters with romantic feelings but I thought of stopping that this time. Not knowing what love means before wanting to love. That was Anne's initial image.
However, as I went on drawing her, she became a natural airhead like Percival and the mood ended up feeling like she had no interest in the opposite sex from the start, making this really difficult to do it. As a result, she became an unyielding girl I usually draw. (laughs)

Pic 6:
Title: High!! High!! Percival!! (5)
Mmmm!!
Oh oh, you learned how to applaud, Percival!!

Oh my, you're giving this to me?
Thank you!!
Adah!!

Ha ha ha, that's it!! Good, good!

Ow ow... Don't play with my moustache!
Abububaaa!
No! Shtop!!!

I wasn't praising you!!!

The end

Volume 7 will be on sale on May 17th.

Hmm...


If he can keep Anne from being interested in romance, I'll be thoroughly impressed.

Interesting to see that Nakaba intended for Nacien's androgeny to be baked in. Curious to see the direction with his character as he's still my fave of the group so far.

And Donny was supposed to be ditched early on. Not going to lie, I wouldn't have missed him.

The other possible designs for Nasiens were so bad...

I like Anne's design with the long hair though.

Oh and once again ... she's 100% a hybrid giant
1. The idea that the daughter of the strongest fairy king in history and one of the strongest giantess in history will be so minor character incapable of even slightly competing with Tristan and Lancelot in strength seems simply insane.
2. Fun fact: most of the fandoms around the world are 100% sure that Isolde is not the daughter of Diana and King. I also do not understand what your confidence is based on except for her height, she is completely unlike either Diana or King. Moreover, her position as a simple servant of Tristan contradicts the fact that the child of Diana and King is the offspring of two kings at once and is equal in status to Tristan.

She is supposed to be Percival's love interest in the stories so I don't think it's really possible. I think he means that she simply has no romantic feelings for anyone right now unlike Elizabeth/Diane/Merlin who loved someone from the start. And now we have Isolde who is in the same basket as Elizabeth/Diane/Merlin.

Honestly I don't find that Nasiens looks androgynous.

That "X is the kid of Y and Z so he/she has to be overpowered" idea has to stop. It is pretty clear the the KoA are meant to be special. Unless one of King and Diane's kid is the fourth one there is no way they is going to be able to rival one of these four.

I don't see how treating Tristan like this would contradict anything in this context because Tristan is the prince of Liones and she is part of his platoon.

Well, there goes my hope.

He isn't on the level of Gowther, but I do feel like he is a bit androgynous. If Nakaba tossed some of Gowther lip gloss his way, it'd sell it way more.

I think King and Diane's children are going to be ridiculously overpowered in their own right, especially given their parents. I don't see anything wrong with that. And I do believe they will be comparable to the 4 Knights when it comes to general ability and such. But only up to a certain point. Obviously, they will eventually lose out due to not being one of the titular knights, especially when we get more information on why they are special and why they were given the Horseman titles they were, but it shouldn't be a problem if they are all similarly strong at this point in time.

As for the Tristan thing, it's not a contradiction, but it does not seem right considering the fact that the two are both royalty and, potentially, childhood friends. If she was their child, her being that level of subservient to someone who should be her "political peer" so to speak just doesn't seem right.
