The Seven Deadly Sins has many fascinating characters, but the hero and heroine who stand out the most are undoubtedly Meliodas and Elizabeth. A deadly sinner and a princess of a country, they are clearly a mismatch. However, the two actually met a long time ago... There were various reasons that led to the two of them meeting in the present. But how did they meet? Coincidence? Fate? We will uncover the truth behind their relationship.
The two meet when Elizabeth asks for help
Elizabeth was saved by Meliodas when she was a baby, but the first time Meliodas and Elizabeth met in this world was when Elizabeth came to the Boar Hat Inn at the beginning of the story in the first episode. She was called the Rusty Knight and was chased by the Holy Knights and came to Meliodas. By the way, when she first appeared, she had a creepy atmosphere wearing armor... but she fainted on the spot and collapsed, and the armor came off, revealing that she was a woman inside.
Elizabeth is sexually harassed for the first time on the day they met
Meliodas' sexual harassment of Elizabeth has become a famous feature of The Seven Deadly Sins! He does whatever he wants, such as groping her breasts and sticking his face in her skirt, but the first sexual harassment he experienced was the day Elizabeth collapsed at the Boar's Hat. Meliodas seriously sexually harasses Elizabeth even before they meet. His serious expression is kind of funny.
The love between the two began 3000 years ago...the punishment they received for it
The two fell in love about 3000 years ago. At that time, Meliodas was on the side of the Demon Clan, and Elizabeth was on the side of the Goddess Clan, and they were enemies. However, the two fell in love, and Meliodas was punished for betraying the Demon Clan. Elizabeth was punished for being united with Meliodas, a Demon Clan member.
What punishment did Meliodas receive?
The Supreme Being and the Demon King placed a curse on Meliodas and Elizabeth. The curse placed on Meliodas is "eternal life". Literally, Meliodas has lived in his current form for 3000 years without dying. (That's why the Holy Knights who know about the Seven Deadly Sins are sometimes surprised to see him in his childlike form.) And in those 3000 years of life, he will meet Elizabeth and lose her right in front of his eyes. That number is 106 times. The current Elizabeth is the 107th Elizabeth that Meliodas has met.
What is the curse placed on Elizabeth?
The curse placed on Meliodas was one that prevented him from ever aging or dying, but the curse placed on Elizabeth was the exact opposite of Meliodas' curse, in that she was born as a human and would die within three days of regaining her goddess tribe memories. Furthermore, if she dies, she is reincarnated as a new human, and each time she meets Meliodas, falls in love with him, regains her memories, and dies in front of Meliodas' eyes.
Elizabeth reincarnated in various forms and personalities
When you think of Elizabeth, you think of a princess with a gentle and demure personality, but that only applies to the current Elizabeth, and Elizabeth's personality changes greatly from era to era. However, her face remains the same as it was before. Sometimes she has a wild personality like hunting animals, or a knight who fights, but no matter what era or personality she has, she has continued to fall in love with Meliodas and lose her life.
The person who told Elizabeth the truth is...
The curse will not be activated unless Elizabeth regains her memories. Meliodas knew this and never told Elizabeth the truth, but his past memories were revived when he met Zeldris. Zeldris calls Elizabeth "the cursed goddess Elizabeth". When he tells Elizabeth, who has lost her memory, the truth about the past 3,000 years, Elizabeth looks happy at the fact that they have been together many times over the past 3,000 years.
After her memories are restored, Elizabeth has a mark in her eyes
Elizabeth is cursed with a death sentence within three days of her regaining her memories, but one way to tell is by the mark (mark) that appears in her eyes. Before this, a mark had appeared in one eye, but after she has fully regained her memories, a mark appears in both eyes. This mark is the mark of the Goddess Tribe, and Elizabeth will lose her life within three days of this mark appearing.
Meliodas becomes the Demon King to break the curse
Elizabeth has only a little time left to live, and Meliodas comes up with a solution to overcome this. That is to become the Demon King himself. To do that, he must of course defeat the current Demon King, who is his own father. After a fierce battle, Meliodas defeats the Demon King. But the price is high...
The true nature of the "curse" is finally revealed!
The curses "Eternal Life" and "Eternal Reincarnation" placed on Meliodas and Elizabeth. Until now, they have only been depicted as curses, but they are finally visualized by Merlin's Curse Discovery. Eternal Life also looks creepy, but the most visually dangerous curse is "Eternal Reincarnation" placed on Elizabeth! A face appears from her mouth, and another face appears from that mouth... and an incredibly creepy curse appears.
Meliodas returns to the Demon World. At that time, Elizabeth──
Meliodas became the Demon King to save Elizabeth. However, as a price, Meliodas will no longer be able to stay in this world. Although he doesn't say it aloud, his friends sense that Meliodas will disappear. However, even after realizing this, Elizabeth still insisted that it was okay. The reason was that she had decided to go to the Demon Realm with Meliodas. A declaration of separation from the real world. Even the others were surprised and yelled out loud (lol)
The truth about Meliodas and Elizabeth
So far, we have introduced Meliodas and Elizabeth from the present to the past. What did you think? However, after defeating the Demon King and lifting the curse on the two, they went to the Demon Realm together at the end... it wasn't a happy ending, but just when it seemed like it had ended beautifully, more turmoil is happening in the original work. We can't take our eyes off the original work and the anime to see how the story will unfold from now on!
