The secret is out. I've been reading The Seven Deadly Sins. I'm actually kind of embarrassed about that. I wanted to see what the deal with it was, and in the end, I got hooked.

I can't believe they made a category for this manga without any submissions. So... FIRST!!!!!! Now I can say I was into it before it was cool.

I submitted it to the "Read Me" Challenge, but with an anime on the horizon, I don't think this manga can be considered underrated... at least, not for long. You can disqualify me if you want, Kita.

I'm not going to get into the plot here-- I'll explain that in a World post-- but here's a little introduction of the characters. There are only four of the Sins pictured here. By name they are Diane (the giant girl), King (the floating one), Meliodas (the one who looks like a kid), and Ban (the guy in the flashy outfit). I excluded the others because two of them might be considered spoilers, and the final one hasn't even been revealed yet. The other two characters in the picture are Elizabeth, a princess, and Hawk, a talking pig.

I'd say it's not a bad job for the first time drawing all of them. Could be better though. Perspective? Backgrounds? What are those? Actually my biggest gripe is that the scanner cut off a bit at the bottom.
