Special Edinburgh's Vampires

[Notice me Escanor senpai]

yeah, watching Escanor run around dodging the Vampire's King attacks made me laugh a bit. Tis a shame he was introduced last, could have had some good laughs if he were earlier in the story.

He could take on the role of comic relief based on his expressions that are a bit over the top...but his buffed version is a lot more serious.

I look forward more to the potential of Slader and Escanor interacting. They seem to be a match made in heaven. I have a feeling Slader has a thing for big buff beefcakes and he is obviously more an M than an S. Escanor just seems to fit all that down to the T so I definitely can't wait to see how Slader will react to morning version Escanor. Take it from me all I am the first to ship Slader X Escanor

I guess both of them will be very happy worshiping merlin together lol.

lmfao awesome chapter

ESCANOR PLEASE HAVE MY CHILDREN

The chapter does seem to hint at there being something weird with meliodas... I am somewhat surprised that meliodas was unaware that it was the demon clan that sealed the vampire clan. I wonder what his deal is... Its weird to think as meliodas as a sort of fake as the chapter where elizabeth met estarossa implies. On the other hand meliodas is of course aware of zeldris and the 10 commandments... Perhaps the vampire clan was sealed shortly before the demon clan was sealed...

I think the vampires were allies of the demons in the holy war. Just Zeldris was kind of a dick and sealed them anyway just to show off

Escanor, Merlin is always smiling...

Looks like he is still somewhat capable even in his Night form since he can dodge the attacks of the Vampire King, his Day form should obviously be stronger but he might be over 3000 at Night too, just without enough confidence.

I wonder what exactly is his curse.

I can buy them being allies given the treaty but them getting sealed because zeldris is an asshole is a bit much. The vampires so far don't seem even more powerful than the sins... If the vampires were enemies it kinda seems like a couple of demons would have been able to easily defeat them. With that in mind it seems kinda unlikely they actually needed to seal them. But then they did get sealed so the issue would be what the true purpose of sealing them was. Its not like the vampires would be of use to anyone when sealed as far as we know... The only reason I could think of that would cause the demons to fear vampires is them consuming demon blood and getting their power. But other than that it does not seem like vampires are strong enough to even match the sins, let alone the demon clan.

So... the vampire clan is not actually a threat to the demon clan but yet they got sealed. So the issue is why they got sealed... Even if there was a risk of the vampires consuming demon blood it is weird that they sealed them rather than exterminate them. With the apparent difference in power it would seem like exterminating them would even be easier. With that in mind perhaps we can make the case that the focus is not in itself the vampire clan but the seal. Perhaps they were testing the seal? The ones the demons seem to really fear are the goddess clan people, they seem to be the ones with the strongest supernatural power. So the vampires were a test since they seem to be adequately powerful, so far it seems like the royalty ones could be on the level with GHKs. So they devised the seal and tested it on the adequately powerful vampires. It'd be interesting if this was the very seal that eventually trapped the demon clan.

And then the issue, who freed the vampire clan and why? Perhaps fraudrin? If the seals are connected then perhaps it was a good chance to study the seal. And we can't rule out him using the vampires as a distraction to make his own move. Perhaps it is while the sins are away dealing with the vampires that he possessed dreyfus and starts his plot to get rid of the sins.

Well, his changes seem to affect his personality too so it would be weird if he manages to keep his stats that high. He does not even have the strength to lift his weapon. And it'd be weird if in his kid form he has strong spirit... With that in mind I would think that at least his strength and spirit varies significantly through the day. His magic might remain the same though. Considering that it would be weird that his strength and spirit along with his possibly constant magic to go over 3000. We haven't seem him fight but it kinda seems like he will be the sort that fights mostly with his strength rather than magic. Basically a similar fighter to meliodas.

Now i have to really wonder about Escanor's tattoo and his equipment. He is the only sin that didn't go in his armor look that was shown in the flashback. His tattoo was never shown either. All the other sin's introductions show their tattoos and their casual clothes always reveal their tattoos. (Except Meliodas, but ten years ago his casual clothes were that sleeveless shirt that showed his shoulder and tattoo). I wonder why the experience with him is so different?

 

[Holt]

Ban is so hilarious.

Escanor should be over 3000 at both day and night. Merlin said a minimum of 3000 is required to be a sin so even at night, he should be over 3000. He also proved to be capable as he dodged the vampire kings attacks without too much effort. I wonder what his ability is.
Growther makes an appearance next volume too. I don't really see a reason why all the sins were sent there though. Its seems like overkill as the vampires don't appear strong enough.

Edinburgh was destroyed by Meliodas. Zeldris confirmed that crater in Edinburgh was made by Meliodas. Still We can not be sure about Danafor. But that means that something happened there. Sins dont know that so maybe they returned to Lyones before Meliodas and after that we know what happened.... Crater was made by Mel

Escanor should be 2nd in terms of physical strenght at least, he can easily carry his ST while even Meliodas has trouble. He must be more similar to human-sized Diane.

 

[Sajuukkhar]

So the vampires WERE allies of the demons during the holy war. That makes the whole event a little more believable now that the demons had something to help bolster their numbers against the other clans.

Though I do wonder why they were sealed. The way it is worded makes it seem like Zeldris was the only one around at the time, perhaps he was some sort of liaison between the demons and vampires because of his status as one of the 10 Commandments?

Maybe he found out the vampires were going to try something that might negatively effect the demons, but didn't have time to get the other commandments over there to help him kill all the vampires, so he sealed them before they could do whatever they were trying to, since he didn't have the power to kill them all himself?

I think Escy is in the top 3, after Mel and Merlin. Buffed Escanor is prolly more powerful than Diane, but there are other stats to take into account. In the end he should be powerful in both forms, or else he would be completely useless in his night form.

yeah during the night he acts as the distraction. I mean if he is able to keep the vampire king busy for a good portion of time while in his weak form just imagine what he could do to other people

Even now it's not sure that Estarossa is the leader of their team. I guess he used them because they were useful and decided to seal them after this, judging from this chapter I don't think he would need the help of his teammates, the Vampire royalties are not at the Sins's level.

While Diane is very strong I consider her as the weakest Sin. I hoped to see more of Ban's skills with his ST but sadly he already finished his opponent with Physical Hunt.

There is one thing though, King said Ban had put them in danger when they met in the first chapters and he didn't know that Ban had stolen his powers. Does it mean that a stronger opponent than even the king will appear and that Ban will screw up?

 

[Notice me Escanor senpai]

So I just read the chapter. So the vampires had some sort of treaty with the demons, but because the vampires couldn't be killed Zeldris decided to seal them. That sounds like a dumb move, especially if this happened during the war 3000 years ago. Vampires are the enemies of humans, and prolly also the Goddess clan, so it seems to me that the demons should have allied themselves with the vampires, even if temporarily.Maybe if the vampires were around the demons would have won the war. Ironically they ended being sealed away as well. I hope we get to know more from Gelda.
Ban is such a bad drunk I just loved his interaction with Merlin, as for Escanor I like his character a lot. Both versions are interesting, the first one is so cowardly. Yep it does look like he's the comic relief of the group. I can't wait to see what he can do in his day version, and what his ST(Rhitta I think) can do. Gowther should appear in the gigantic armor. I wonder if Escanor has an armor too, in the first pic with the Sins he had one, but maybe Nakaba doesn't think he needs one, and I like how he's called "prideful man".

I think it's also important to note that all that stuff about sealing them because can't defeat them is what Ren said, and not necessarily what happened. I could be wrong, but I think Ren is being cocky and overestimating themselves.

Well it seems to me that after a sealing, much like the demons, the vampires are likely also depleted of their magic, and in this case replenishing it seems to come from drinking blood. So I am not too surprised if the vampires are as pitifully weak as they are in that they probably needed time to recover, even if they had the advantage of turf.

After all if vampires were as weak as this I doubt the Demon clan would have bothered in the first place to seal them off or make a treaty, it would have been quicker after all to just annihilate them given how few they number.
