Premise

edit

Set sixteen years after the destruction of the Demon King and Supreme Deity, at the hands of the Seven Deadly Sins, wrought the end of the Holy War, the series focuses on the young boy Percival, who discovers that he is destined to be part of a group of four knights prophesied to destroy the world. Targeted by the forces of Camelot as a result, Percival travels to meet with the other three members of the Four Knights alongside Lancelot, a Liones knight who is the son of the Seven Sins member Ban.[5]

Production

Development

edit

Following the conclusion of The Seven Deadly Sins on March 25, 2020, it was announced by the manga's author, Nakaba Suzuki, that his next work would serve as a sequel to the series.[6][7] Suzuki also revealed that the new series was tentatively titled The Four Knights of the Apocalypse.[8]

Characters

While planning the storyline for the manga, Suzuki originally desired to use the character of Tristan—who was introduced at the end of The Seven Deadly Sins as the son of Meliodas and Elizabeth Liones—to be the protagonist of Four Knights of the Apocalypse.[9][10] However, Suzuki eventually changed his mind, not wanting to have a main character so closely related to the cast of his previous series.[11] Instead, he decided to have Percival, a character created specifically for the sequel, as the protagonist.[12] During an interview in April 2021, Suzuki commented that, in regards to Percival's design, he particularly focuses on the cuteness of the character when drawing him, adding elements that are able to highlight this in Percival, such as his helmet and cloak.[13]

Transliteration: "Shōnen wa Tabidatsu" (Japanese: 少年は旅立つ)		Maki OdairaMaki OdairaOctober 8, 2023 (2023-10-08)
Percival is a boy who lives alone with his grandfather, Varghese, above the clouds on a mountaintop called God's Finger. On Percival's sixteenth birthday, a Holy Knight named Ironside arrives on a flying boat in hunt of Varghese, his former comrade whom he suspects is one of the Four Knights of the Apocalypse, a group of warriors prophesied to bring ruin to Ironside's liege, Arthur Pendragon. Ironside magically inflicts large gashes on the pair and leaves them for dead, but only Varghese is fatally wounded, while Percival mysteriously survives and heals from his injuries. Before dying, Varghese reveals Ironside to be Percival's father and urges Percival to find him, though Percival hesitates to leave until days later after finding a set of travel garments Varghese made for him. Donning Varghese's cloak and helmet, Percival climbs down God's Finger to the land of Britannia, where he encounters a red fox.
22"The Unknown Force"
Transliteration: "Michinaru Chikara" (Japanese: 未知なる力)		Keiko OyamadaMaki OdairaOctober 15, 2023 (2023-10-15)
Percival follows the fox out of the woods and encounters a traveling circus troupe of failed Holy Knight initiates. The troupe allows Percival to accompany them to the nearest village, which is under attack by a giant wolf. With the help of troupe member Donny, Percival easily defeats the wolf to rescue an old man and his grandson, which is observed by Pellegarde, the wolf's owner and a Holy Knight in league with Ironside. Pellegarde challenges Percival to a duel, taking an interest in training him. Percival is nearly defeated, but after he is cheered by the grandson, a magic power emanates from his hands and allows him to fight back.

Transliteration: "Mokushiroku no Yonkishi" (Japanese: 黙示録の四騎士)		Maki OdairaMaki OdairaOctober 22, 2023 (2023-10-22)
Pellegarde uses his fire magic against Percival's newly awakened power, which creates a swarm of "Mini-Percivals" that protect him and heal his injuries. Recognizing Percival's power as a form of rare Hero-type magic, Pellegarde identifies him as one of the Four Knights of the Apocalypse. Percival and Donny are rescued by the red fox, who safely teleports them several miles away from Pellegarde. The fox, Sin, explains he is tasked with escorting Percival to the kingdom of Liones, revealing that Percival is destined to destroy the world as one of the Four Knights, and that the Holy Knights pursuing them are from Camelot, a kingdom within a realm of chaos ruled by King Arthur. While hunting for food at Echo Gorge, Percival saves a fairy-like creature from a sinister young herbalist named Nasiens, who drugs Percival to use as a test subject. The local fairies warn Donny and Sin about Nasiens, whom they blame for turning the gorge's plants and wildlife into monsters.

Transliteration: "Kodama no Tani no Akuma" (Japanese: 木霊の谷の悪魔)		Kim Min-SunMaki OdairaOctober 29, 2023 (2023-10-29)
Under Nasiens' captivity, Percival learns that Nasiens is developing an antidote for the poisonous miasma plaguing Echo Gorge, with the animals' mutations being an unintended side effect of his experiments. Deciding to trust Nasiens, Percival willingly drinks the untested drug despite its potentially lethal effects, proving it to be a success. After Percival convinces the fairies of Nasiens' innocence, Nasiens spreads the drug across the gorge and restores it to its original state through his magic ability, Mix Venom. However, the gorge is poisoned again by Ordo, Nasiens' long-lost mentor and adoptive grandfather, who has been transformed into a monster under the control of the fairy creature whom Nasiens imprisoned earlier. Realizing Ordo is the true source of the miasma, Percival promises to return Ordo to normal.

The fairy creature controlling Ordo is shot by an unseen archer, revealing the creature to be a puppet of Talisker, a Holy Knight of Camelot. Percival is initially unable to use his magic, leading Nasiens to attack Talisker by himself, but regains his power after protecting Nasiens from Talisker's weather manipulation magic and gaining Nasiens' complete trust. While battling Percival, Talisker reveals he transformed Ordo on Arthur's behalf for helping the non-human races of Echo Gorge. Under Sin's guidance, Percival defeats Talisker by focusing his magic power into a sword-like form, which causes Talisker to drop the mystical Chaos Staff he used to manipulate Ordo, allowing Sin to destroy it and restore Ordo to human form. Percival resolves to stop Arthur and all of Camelot, angered by their disregard for non-humans, while Nasiens joins Percival's group to explore the world at Ordo's request. The group travels to the nearby town of Sistana, unaware that Ironside is there.

At Sistana, the Mini-Percivals lead Percival's group to uncover a buried piece of the Coffin of Eternal Darkness, a mystical relief once used to seal the Demon Clan away. The group is confronted by Anghalhad (Anne), the local lord's daughter and an aspiring Holy Knight, who had buried the piece to hide it from Ironside. Suspicious of them due to her magic ability to detect lies, Anne is surprised by Percival's sincerity when he returns the piece, which she instead entrusts to him for safekeeping. That evening, Ironside reveals the rest of the Coffin to the townsfolk, promising their protection from the Four Knights of the Apocalypse in exchange for its completion. Witnessing this, Sin realizes he intends to activate the Coffin by sacrificing the townsfolk. While the others rush to protect the piece, having left it at their inn room, Percival brings Anne along when she endangers herself trying to expose Ironside's deceit. However, the piece is stolen by a demonic servant of Ironside disguised as Anne's maid, allowing Ironside to complete the Coffin. Sin sends Percival's group to destroy the Coffin as Ironside begins the sacrificial ritual.

Percival attempts to break the Coffin of Eternal Darkness, but Ironside's overwhelming magic power and skill prevent him from coming close. Donny is intimidated into abandoning his friends, while Nasiens remains to help Anne defend Percival, enchanting her rapier to poison Ironside and hinder his movements. Nevertheless, Ironside strikes the group down and kills Percival, causing the Mini-Percivals to vanish and leaving his friends unable to revive him. Unaware of this, a returning Donny expresses confidence in Percival, which makes one of the Mini-Percivals reappear, renewing Nasiens and Anne's belief in Percival's survival. As his friends continue to affirm their faith in Percival, the Mini-Percivals multiply and bring him back to life. Percival credits his friends for fueling his magic, which he names "Hope".

Ironside's summoned monsters are slain by a young man seemingly called by Sin to protect the townspeople. Ironside admits defeat and asks for Percival's forgiveness, but Anne exposes his surrender as another attempt on Percival's life, sending Ironside into a rage. With Nasiens' poison continuing to hinder Ironside's attacks, Percival succeeds in splitting the Coffin of Eternal Darkness, while Donny uses his power of levitation to retrieve the relic's centerpiece, the Dragon Handle; Percival's attack also destroys Ironside's helmet and reveals his face, unnerving Percival with his father's resemblance to Varghese. Ironside's comrade Mortlach convinces him to return to Camelot, likening the monsters' unidentified attacker to one of the Seven Deadly Sins, the most formidable warriors in Britannia. Sin returns following the Holy Knights' retreat, lying that the attacker was a group of forest animals. Percival's group leaves Sistana afterwards, joined by Anne with her father's approval.

Percival's group travels to the fort town of Cant to prepare for a journey across Dalflare Range. At the town tavern, Donny encounters his maternal uncle and former mentor, Captain Howzer of Liones' Holy Knights, who is ashamed of Donny for deserting his knight training out of cowardice. In a drunken state, Howzer confiscates the Dragon Handle from Donny and berates him into running away, mistakenly accusing him and his friends of stealing the relic. Disgusted by Howzer's behavior, Nasiens challenges him to a drinking match, which Nasiens easily handles due to his immunity to alcohol. While Howzer is distracted, Nasiens deduces from the town's unusual wares and prices that the townspeople are selling stolen goods. His suspicions are proven when the townspeople intoxicate Percival and Anne into a stupor, revealing themselves to be a gang of bandits led by Edlin, another former apprentice of Howzer.

Howzer passes out from his drinking match, allowing Edlin to imprison him and Percival's group. The group is released by Taizoo, the town bartender, who reveals that Edlin has blackmailed an ancient dragon into following his commands by stealing its egg and creating an illusory copy of it, with the real egg having already hatched. Meanwhile, Edlin attempts to recruit Donny, summoning the dragon to coerce him when he declines. However, some of Edlin's minions expose his deception to the dragon when they accidentally destroy the fake egg during a mutiny, provoking the dragon into attacking Cant. Howzer refuses to take action, still intoxicated and bitter towards Donny and Edlin, leaving Percival and Anne to search for Donny while Nasiens tends to the dragon hatchling hidden in their cell. After Donny rescues Edlin and declares his intent to resume his training, Percival saves them both and battles the dragon, but finds his magic ineffective against it.

Sin rebukes Howzer for his poor treatment of Donny, revealing Donny's role in saving the Dragon Handle from Ironside, as well as Percival's identity as one of the Four Knights of the Apocalypse, which makes Howzer regret his earlier harshness. Howzer quickly defeats the dragon after being magically soberized by Nasiens, who reunites the dragon with its child, calming the dragon. Apologizing to his pupils, Howzer promises to train the repentant Edlin again and reconciles with Donny, who explains his past cowardice as a misguided attempt to live for his deceased mother's sake. Howzer offers the handle back to Donny, but Donny is too nervous to take the responsibility of carrying it. Percival accepts the handle instead, with Howzer forging it into a sword for him. Before Percival's group leaves Cant, Sin privately transforms into the young man from Sistana and fires an enchanted arrow over Liones in the distance, signalling his retrieval of Percival to Liones's king, Meliodas.

The two carelessly cross a magic barrier into the village, where they are treated hospitably; following after them, Sin is put to sleep by the village elder. A local hunter, Ardd, stops Nasiens and Anne from entering the village, warning that the villagers are monsters in human disguise. Unable to cross the barrier himself, Ardd offers to help Nasiens and Anne rescue their friends. Anne determines Ardd to be trustworthy after he says his daughter, Connie, was taken by monsters as an infant. As instructed by Ardd, Anne enters the village with Nasiens and destroys its idol, which lifts the barrier and exposes the villagers' true forms as members of the Demon Clan. However, the demons remain docile and friendly, with the seemingly human elder explaining he has been protecting them from Ardd, who reveals himself as a Holy Knight of Camelot named Ardbeg.

Recognizing Percival as one of the Four Knights of the Apocalypse, Ardbeg turns against Anne and the others to kill him with his mystic beast familiar, Cernunnos. Sin awakens and instructs Percival to combine his magic with his sword, which multiplies the sword's power enough to sever Cernunnos's antlers. After Nasiens drugs the beast, Ardbeg retreats to the nearby Crystal Grotto, where he lures Percival's group and uses his Reverse magic to transform them into babies. Ardbeg prepares to kill Percival while the group's mental states are regressed, but tearfully falters when Anne's crying reminds him of Connie's death in a demon attack during the Holy War. As Ardbeg tries to regain his resolve, he is confronted by the elder.

Observing Ardbeg's surrender through a bird familiar, the Holy Knight Tamdhu throws spears at Percival from afar. Ardbeg dies protecting Anne, which prompts Gowther to hijack Tamdhu's body and attack his teammates before Tamdhu is killed by their leader, Fiddich.

Sin angers her by destroying Ardbeg's Chaos Staff, which she brought with her as a memento, leading Anne to berate Sin for his apparent uselessness to their team. She is surprised and cheers up after Sin apologizes, unaware that he deliberately provoked her to help her out of her despair. The team continues into the Entangled Forest, where they separate the Dark Talismans to fight them individually. Nasiens helps Percival defeat the assassin Elgin, although Percival saves Elgin from falling to his death, much to Sin's disapproval. Percival flies the group further through the forest with his magic, but they are intercepted by the assassins Burgie and Doronach on their flying horse.

When Sin restores the group's confidence with encouraging words, the Dark Talismans identify Sin as the group's ringleader and trap him with themselves inside a Perfect Cube to dispose of him. However, Sin kills Elgin, Burgie, and Doronach before assuming his human form, revealing his true identity as Lancelot to everyone. Lancelot effortlessly outmaneuvers Fiddich through his mind-reading abilities, interrogating him over the whereabouts of a knight in a star-shaped visor and Dubs the giant craftsman, before killing Fiddich when he attempts to retreat. Percival's friends become wary of Lancelot, but he regains their trust by explaining his mission of testing their resolve. Pellegarde arrives to challenge Percival again, but Lancelot abruptly teleports the group to Liones for an audience with Meliodas.

Meliodas requests Percival's help in saving Britannia, explaining that the Four Knights of the Apocalypse were chosen to save the world rather than destroy it. Percival is suddenly distracted by shimmering magic crystals belonging to Chion, a Holy Knight of Liones who serves Meliodas's son, Prince Tristan. After Percival angers Chion's teammate Isolde by accidentally sticking his head up her skirt, Chion convinces her and fellow teammate Jade that Percival is one of Camelot's Chaos Knights, and prevents Percival from explaining himself by summoning a sylph to steal his voice. In the ensuing fight, Jade covers Percival's head in a sphere of darkness to blind him. Percival's friends arrive to defend Percival, but the sylph steals their voices before Isolde injures them with her mace. Unable to see if his friends are alive, Percival becomes aggressive towards the knights before Tristan intervenes.

Meanwhile, still blinded by Jade's magic, Percival goes berserk and attacks Tristan's team until he is calmed by his friends, who explain his identity as one of the Four Knights of the Apocalypse to Tristan's team. Chion claims he mistook Percival for an enemy after seeing Isolde chase him, but Anne realizes he attacked Percival deliberately when Tristan scolds him for forgetting the description of Percival he received from Meliodas. Tristan reveals himself and Lancelot to be two of the Four Knights, and that he has brought the fourth knight, Gawain, a relative of King Arthur who wears an all-concealing suit of armor. However, Lancelot reports that Gawain has fled the castle. Percival and Tristan's teams split up to search for Gawain as it begins to drizzle and the moon appears.

Meanwhile, Chion sneaks away to assassinate Gawain, paranoid towards the prophecied knights besides Tristan. Alerted to Chion's intentions by Anne, Tristan stops him from killing a figure wearing Gawain's armor, whom they discover to be an unrelated man who found Gawain's suit discarded and donned it on a whim. Elsewhere, Percival's group meets an unarmored man they suspect to be Gawain until Percival recognizes him as an unmasked Pellegarde, who has followed Percival from the Entangled Forest. The two resume their battle, which disrupts a muscular young woman's attempt to court Isolde.

Percival tempts Pellegarde with an offer to join forces against Arthur, but Pellegarde declines and kidnaps Percival, trapping the others in a Perfect Cube. Gawain removes the barrier with an Absolute Cancel spell and attacks Pellegarde, who protects Percival when Gawain arrogantly shows no concern for the boy's safety. Percival stops Gawain from killing Pellegarde, leading her to assault Percival for his interference. Despite her tremendous power, however, she is defeated by Pellegarde due to her lack of combat skill, which sends her into a violent, childish tantrum. Tristan allows Pellegarde to flee for saving Percival, then placates Gawain by bolstering her ego. Meanwhile, two cloaked figures in Liones are cornered by a squadron of Holy Knights. One of the figures escapes while the other cloak lifts to reveal Melascula and Galland, members of the Demon Clan's Ten Commandments who have been reborn as Arthur's servants to take revenge against the Seven Deadly Sins.

Gawain slices through Galland's indestructible body by teleporting her sword into him, allowing Percival to destroy him from the inside with an explosive Mini-Percival. Meanwhile, Lancelot interrogates Melascula over her and Galland's comrade, whom he confirms as the star visor knight. Melascula falls under Arthur's spell and is forced into her true form as a giant snake, but is defeated by Tristan's demonic powers, leaving a Chaos Staff behind.

Jade and Chion are aided by Vice-Captain Guila, who unmasks the star visor knight as Jericho, formerly a Holy Knight of Liones and Lancelot's teacher who has since defected to Camelot. Jericho's ice magic freezes Guila despite the latter retaining her demonic abilities as a New Generation Holy Knight, but Lancelot stops Jericho from killing her. However, Jericho finds the prisoner, whom she is forced to kill to protect Camelot's secrets after failing to free him from his magic binds. Confronted by Lancelot for betraying his father, Ban, Jericho confesses to falling in love with Lancelot when he was a young child while she was still an adult; disgusted by her own inappropriate feelings, she joined Camelot under Arthur's promise to create a world where an older version of Lancelot can reciprocate her love.

The Knights of the Apocalypse and their allies battle the fusion of Melascula and Galland, dubbed "Mela-Galland", whose magic prevents their attacks from connecting. Gawain uses up her magic to damage Mela-Galland with an explosive spell to the surrounding area, causing Gawain to shrink to a childlike size. When the knights are further disoriented, town doctor Hendrickson arrives and explains the cause is a neurotoxin produced by Mela-Galland, allowing Nasiens to neutralize it. Dreyfus and Isolde arrive to support the Four Knights along with the rest of Liones's Holy Knights, which amplifies Percival's magic to the point of creating an army of intelligent Mini-Percivals to protect the Holy Knights. Further fueled by the knights' hope, Percival's attacks are strengthened enough to harm Mela-Galland's impenetrable body.

Tristan saves Isolde and, angered by her injuries, fully taps into his demon side after requesting Hendrickson to summon Lancelot for him. Tristan's demonic powers allow him to defeat Mela-Galland, but also cause him to lose all self-restraint and brutally maim Mela-Galland to death; sensing Tristan's predicament, Meliodas prepares to enter the battle to support him. Upon Mela-Galland's death, Arthur descends from the sky on a staircase made of rubble from the battle to personally assess the Four Knights' strength.
