I AM "THE ONE" DON'T NEED A GUN JUST NEED THE SUN TO GET RESPECT UP IN THE STREETS

Seeing all the predictability analogical computation of Escanor was all balony, it only proves he is limitless, incomprehensible and broken. So it wouldnt be wise to predict, compute nor understand Escanor capabilities. One thing is for sure doubting his chances is wrong and he can beat who ever his opponent is, easy.

 

[Skibbie]

i still can't fathom how people are even believing that Mel will be able to surpass Escanor.

1) Escanor was said to be the strongest sin twice by 2 different characters.
2) Merlin being branded as the strongest sin when she took down escanor
3) Escanor's Title was "The Allmighty", that as a title is for "all powerful"
4) the sin of pride being the worse sin out of all the 7 sins if we go by church standard.
5) the fight against mel itself
6) being titled as "invincible" and "incarnation of power itself"
7)the author drawing things like

theres too much indication from the author.

I largely agree. At least when it comes to defeating meliodas, that is essentially a DK/SG class feat. Basically, as of right now the only beings in nanatsu verse that could stand up to escanor are the supreme goddess and demon king. And the fairy tree if, as I think, is a being comparable to the supreme goddess or demon king as it essentially functions as the god of fairies along with providing king and gloxinia with vast power. Now, it is worth noting that we don't really have a power cap for anyone above assault mode meliodas. Basically, escanor, the DK, the Supreme goddess and whatever other beings that stand at the top of the food chain can essentially be as powerful as nakaba wants them to be. It does seem like nakaba is consistent with escanor being the strongest so far and if he remains consistent with escanor being a living embodiment of the sun who wields the sun's actual power then there is no doubt he at least in some context is stronger than the DK and SG. Vastly as that as you are comparing a speck of darkness and a tiny glitter to the sun, the origin of life. Of course, that also doesn't rule out the possibility that the supreme goddess and demon king are primordial entities where the darkness and light in question precedes and transcends celestial bodies like the sun and by extension escanor. Though if that is the case I can't imagine how they can be defeated as they would embody darkness and light in which in transcends the literal power of the sun. I can't imagine them being defeated in that case unless somehow elizabeth and meliodas tap into the light and darkness harder than the SG and DK....

The Demon king just witnessed Escanor bringing himself to his most EXTREME limit (which lasts 1 min) and doesn't give much attention to it. He was clearly delighted even after Meliodas' "loss" and became even more determined to declare him as the Next Demon King. what that supposed to mean? It can't mean anything besides the fact that the TRUE Meliodas who he is waiting for to awaken is on an ENTIRELY different level than that we've just seen. Also, The king just ordered Zeldris to kill the SDS, even after witnessing The One, so even Zeldris has a very good chance to take him down. (Merlin also said something along these lines regarding Zeldris and his power ... she said that and she knows almost everything about Escanor's power level including his One).

What we see in the last chapter is the demon king ordering zeldris to retrieve meliodas and kill the seven deadly sins before they become more of a threat. I am not sure of how this is him not giving the sins, including escanor, much attention. If anything, the demon king likely gave his orders specifically because the two strongest sins, escanor and meliodas, are currently incapacitated. What you are suggesting would make sense had the demon king ordered zeldris to take out the sins at the peak of their strength. Not when the bulk of their power is out of commission.

Plus Meliodas finally seems to be in an emotional state where he’s evil enough for the demon king. I don’t see him powering up any time soon

If I have a nickel for every time you've said that...

You know you're setting yourself up for huge disappointment if the latest move Nakaba is pulling isn't telling you something apparent.

If you had a nickel you’d have one nickel because I normally mention Meliodas’ power and not his emotions. Also it’s not my fault Nakaba insists on blatantly misquoting his characters and pulling out random power ups. I mean Mel was practically identical to his 10C days but then Nakaba goes and gives him another power up that makes a contradiction to the curse.

And I’m not sure what disappointment I’m going to come across to. Mel getting another power up wouldn’t make me lose any sleep. It’d be stupid, but I wouldn’t care.

Escanor my boy need some badass nemesis for crying out loud. The guy is getting bored because no matter he face he destroys, oh boy. I was thinking NS might build up Estarossa to somehow counter his awsomeness. Although Estarossa might have zero chance against him at least we can say NS did his best but Escanor is just too much for every character he faces. I mean literally he almost killed a demon king predecessor with just a single strike of his hand. Meliodas assault mode is like the most feared state even the Goddess's acknowledge this feat, everyone cowers. But Escanor just single slashed this OP state of Mel and he almost die, jesus christ.

Wonder if he'll ever introduce Gawain

The series implied that there is someone out there that Escanor considers stronger than himself.

When was that implied? If you’re referring to the data book that was a fan question and Escanor still said no to the answer

I'm not 100% on the translation, but in chapter 233, remember he was surprised that Diane said he was strongest man alive and he could handle anything, to which he responded that she said something foolish. To me, that implies that there is either someone or something out there that his pride form doesn't think he could handle.

I think he said that because Mel pretty much trashed him around for the whole fight before noon. So he might’ve been a little more doubtful at the moment

See, I thought that as well, but before and after the battle, Escanor remained confident that he could take on Mel. Before they fought, he was looking forward to proving that he was stronger than Mel, something he's apparently wanted to do for a while. Then after the battle, he said he would take him on as many times as it took, implying that he still considers himself above Mel in power. And it was that comment that led Diane to make that statement towards him, leading to his reaction. I don't think his reaction at that moment in time was taking Mel into consideration.

I dont think Arthur and his nephew could even scathe Escanor.smh. Bring on the DK and Supreme Goddess because at the end of the day he can solo both of them because he is the Sun God, God amongst God.

Didnt CR have it as "i didnt think you'd say something foolishly obvious" or something like that? It would be nice if what you said will become true and gawain will be introduced though

That moment when CR makes more competent translations than MS.... Normally CR is just terrible however that would have the benefit of maknig sense, unlike the MS version...

Even with that translation, given Escanor's reaction, the implication is still there, that there is something out there that Escanor doesn't think he could handle. Otherwise, why have that reaction? Would he have agreed right when she said it? Even if it was "foolishly, obvious"? Escanor hasn't let comments like that shake him before.
