So we have a lot to talk about. 6 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,920 You guys know the drill.

Now. 14 00:00:54,439 --> 00:00:57,280 I actually made a video about all the races and clans and seven Deadlist 15 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,399 Sins like five years ago, but a lot has changed since then, including 16 00:01:00,439 --> 00:01:04,640 the release of the sequels, so an extensive update video is long overdue. 17 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,920 Let's started off with the humans, who might seem like the least interesting race, 18 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,159 because hey, everyone watching this video is probably a human. But humans 19 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:17,439 actually become more important towards the end of the original manga, and their importance 20 00:01:17,439 --> 00:01:22,040 continues to grow in the sequel. That's because we eventually learned that all race 21 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:26,920 has emerged out of an ancient primordial deity known as Chaos. Chaos created the 22 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:32,519 Supreme Deity and the Demon King first, and from them the Goddesses and the 23 00:01:32,599 --> 00:01:37,359 Demons were born. Chaos then created the Sacred Tree, out of which the 24 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,920 Fairies were born. The fourth race to be created were the Giants, although 25 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:48,319 their primitive desire to constantly fight each other disappointed Chaos, and so Chaos decided 26 00:01:48,359 --> 00:01:53,280 to create a fifth race, the human race. The humans were incomplete and 27 00:01:53,480 --> 00:02:00,200 contradictory beings. They exhibited both kindness and cruelty, bravery and cowardice, love 28 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:06,840 and loathing, beauty and beastliness, and so on. Because of this chaotic 29 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:10,800 nature, the humans were closest to Chaos, and so they were the perfect 30 00:02:10,879 --> 00:02:16,080 race as far as Chaos was concerned. This infuriated the demon King and the 31 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:21,719 Supreme Deity, and they became jealous of the humans. They were afraid that 32 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,439 chaos would turn against them and take away their realms and followers, so they 33 00:02:25,479 --> 00:02:30,560 turned against their own creator. They worked together to seal chaos away, and 34 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:35,599 once they succeeded in that task, they became the two most powerful beings in 35 00:02:35,599 --> 00:02:39,439 the world. They became the gods of Britannia. Although humans are usually weaker 36 00:02:39,479 --> 00:02:44,560 and have shorter lifespans than members of the other races, they also have by 37 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:49,520 far the largest population. This is partly because the deadly Holy War from three 38 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:53,960 thousand years ago resulted in mass casualties among members of the other races, which 39 00:02:53,039 --> 00:02:58,879 dwindled their numbers and forced the survivors to live in isolated, secluded pockets of 40 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,080 Britannia. On the other hand, humans spread all over the land of Britannia 41 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:07,520 and established multiple prominent kingdoms. Unlike members of the other races, most humans 42 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:13,199 are born without magic, but they are able to learn or awaken magical powers 43 00:03:13,319 --> 00:03:16,879 later on in life. Prominent examples of strong humans include the Holy Nights, 44 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:22,039 Majors, and Druids, all of whom are able to use powerful magic, 45 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,159 and although they are rare. Some humans, like Bond and Escanour are able 46 00:03:25,159 --> 00:03:30,240 to hold their own against even the strongest members of the other races. But 47 00:03:30,439 --> 00:03:34,599 to be fair, that is because they both had access to extraordinary magic that 48 00:03:34,719 --> 00:03:38,199 normal humans never will. Bond drank from the Fountain of Youth, which made 49 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:43,280 him immortal and allowed him to push his body beyond all human limits, and 50 00:03:43,599 --> 00:03:49,159 Escanour possessed Sunshine, a divine grace that once belonged to Mael, the strongest 51 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,520 of the four archangels. Humans can also become hosts to much more powerful beings, 52 00:03:53,599 --> 00:03:58,439 such as when Margaret became a host to Ludoshell or when Arthur became a 53 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:03,039 host to chaos Sell. In such instances, the person becomes far stronger than 54 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:08,960 a normal human, but their personality seems to change completely and they are no 55 00:04:09,039 --> 00:04:12,719 longer the same person that they once were. We also need to talk about 56 00:04:12,759 --> 00:04:17,360 some distinct subgroups within the human race, starting with the Druids. Druids are 57 00:04:17,399 --> 00:04:21,639 a group of humans who live deep in the forest, far from ordinary human 58 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:28,000 settlement. They also worship the Goddess clan directly, and because of their allegiance 59 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,480 to the goddesses, they tend to despise the Demon clan. The Druids look 60 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,759 like normal humans, although many of them tend to have silver hair or white 61 00:04:35,759 --> 00:04:41,399 hair. Unlike most ordinary humans, the Druids are much more in touch with 62 00:04:41,519 --> 00:04:45,680 nature, with animals, and with the spirit world, and they are able 63 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:49,680 to perform magical spells and techniques that normal humans cannot. These spells include the 64 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:54,920 ability to heal, as well as the power to destroy dark and corrupt souls, 65 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,279 such as the souls of demons. These are all techniques that they share 66 00:04:58,319 --> 00:05:01,720 with the Goddesses. Does believe that these techniques were taught to the Druids by 67 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:08,160 the goddesses as a reward for their devotion. Another important subgroup of humans are 68 00:05:08,199 --> 00:05:12,319 the wizards, who once inhabited the city of belly Allowin. Belly Alowen was 69 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,279 known as the Capital of the Wizards, and its inhabitants have been referred to 70 00:05:15,319 --> 00:05:20,920 in multiple different ways including sages, wise men, and wizards. Belly Allwin 71 00:05:21,079 --> 00:05:26,160 is the hometown of Merlin, the Boer's Sin of Gluttony, and in fact, 72 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:30,240 she is the last known survivor from the Capital of the Wizards. The 73 00:05:30,399 --> 00:05:33,759 entire city was destroyed by the Demon King and the Supreme deity during the previous 74 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:38,639 Holy War from three thousand years ago. At first, we didn't know whether 75 00:05:38,639 --> 00:05:42,879 the wizards were a separate race altogether, because Merlin had stated in the past 76 00:05:42,879 --> 00:05:46,800 that her true name cannot be pronounced by humans, which kind of implies that 77 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,079 she herself may not be human. Nevertheless, in the final arc of the 78 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:55,120 original Seven Delhi Sins, it is confirmed that the inhabitants of Belli Alowin were 79 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:59,240 in fact human, but they were a special group of humans who were obsessed 80 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,839 with research magic. In fact, they took children who had a particular affinity 81 00:06:02,879 --> 00:06:09,279 for magic and experimented on them relentlessly in order to find the ultimate magic power. 82 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:14,279 Merlin herself was one of the children who was experimented on by the wizards. 83 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,800 Now let's talk about the giants, who look almost exactly like humans, 84 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:23,519 but they are just much bigger and stronger. Giants are known for their incredible 85 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:28,839 physical power and warrior culture. They tend to value strength, courage, and 86 00:06:28,959 --> 00:06:32,399 glory above all things, and the leader of the giant clan is chosen based 87 00:06:32,399 --> 00:06:38,240 on which warrior is the strongest. Giants have a close connection to nature and 88 00:06:38,519 --> 00:06:42,040 to the earth. In the Holy War that took place three thousand years ago. 89 00:06:42,199 --> 00:06:46,639 The Giant Clan fought alongside the goddesses, fairies, and humans against the 90 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,279 Demon Clan. However, an important figure in the history of the Giants, 91 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:55,879 Droll, became a member of the Ten Commandments and was sealed away alongside the 92 00:06:55,959 --> 00:07:00,800 demons inside the Coffin of Eternal Darkness. Droll is a legend among the Giants. 93 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:05,480 He invented the Sacred Dance of the Giants, but after being defeated in 94 00:07:05,519 --> 00:07:10,920 battle by Zeldras, Droll decided to join the Ten Commandments and he became the 95 00:07:10,959 --> 00:07:15,319 Commandment of Patients. Despite being a giant, Droll differs from the average giant 96 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:20,160 in appearance because his skin is blue and he has forearms instead of too. 97 00:07:20,399 --> 00:07:26,399 Because giants are famous for being fierce warriors, they were often hired as mercenaries 98 00:07:26,399 --> 00:07:30,759 and sent to fight in various wars between human kingdoms throughout history. Now, 99 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,480 initially we were let to believe that the giants were close to extinction and that 100 00:07:33,519 --> 00:07:38,439 there were only a few of them left in Britannia, but both the Seven 101 00:07:38,439 --> 00:07:43,000 Dealy Sins Cursed by Light movie and the sequel manga have demonstrated that there are 102 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,959 indeed other giants out there that we didn't even see in the original manga, 103 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:50,920 so I'm no longer sure just how endangered they really are. Giants live much 104 00:07:50,959 --> 00:07:55,360 longer than humans. In fact, they age about fifty times slower than a 105 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:59,680 regular human, and they also have a special ability called creation, which allows 106 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,120 them to control and manipulate the Earth, much like the earth Benders from Avatar 107 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,879 The Last Airbender. Giants can use the earth to form great and powerful weapons 108 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:13,279 that they can then use against their enemies. Then we have the Fairy Clan. 109 00:08:13,759 --> 00:08:18,759 Fairies are also very humanlike, except they are smaller and have wings that 110 00:08:18,839 --> 00:08:22,279 look like the wings of insects. They also have pointy ears and a childlike 111 00:08:22,319 --> 00:08:28,279 appearance. Unlike humans and giants, fairies are born from the Sacred Tree or 112 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,879 plants that grow around the Sacred Tree. As such, they do not have 113 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:37,399 parents, although those fairies who are born from the same plant are considered to 114 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:41,240 be siblings. The fairies have extremely long lifespans, ranging from one thousand to 115 00:08:41,399 --> 00:08:48,120 fifteen hundred years, although certain fairies, like Glauccinia's sister Getjade, can live 116 00:08:48,159 --> 00:08:54,240 for over four thousand years. Fairies have multiple unique abilities, including flying because 117 00:08:54,279 --> 00:08:58,000 They have wings, shape shifting, manipulating plants, and reading the hearts of 118 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:03,519 people in order to determine whether their intentions are pure. Much like the Giants, 119 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,919 the fairies fought against the Demon Clan during the Ancient Holy War, and 120 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:11,519 interestingly enough, just like with Droll and the Giants, one of the strongest 121 00:09:11,519 --> 00:09:16,679 and most important members of the Fairy Clan eventually became a member of the Ten 122 00:09:16,759 --> 00:09:20,879 Commandments. I am referring to Glauccinia, the very first fairy King, who 123 00:09:20,879 --> 00:09:26,080 became the repose of the Ten Commandments and who was also sealed inside the coffin 124 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:31,320 of eternal Darkness. Fairies lived peacefully inside the Fairy King's Forest for thousands of 125 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,600 years, and at one point, the grizzly sin of Sloth King served as 126 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,919 the fairy King and ruler of the forest, but he eventually left the forest 127 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,879 in search of his best friend Helbrom, and the task of protecting the forest 128 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:48,519 fell to his younger sister Elaine. Twenty years before the beginning of the story, 129 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,559 Bond entered the Fairy King's Forest in search of the Fountain of Youth, 130 00:09:52,799 --> 00:09:56,559 and he met and fell in love with Elaine. However, the forest was 131 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:03,120 then attacked and destroyed by a d demon. Bond managed to survive because Elaine 132 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,679 made him drink from the Fountain of Youth and turned him into an immortal, 133 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:11,879 but Elaine herself was killed and the forest was destroyed. Before she died, 134 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:16,000 Elaine gave Bonn a seed that he could use to restore the forest, and 135 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:20,799 some years later he created a new fairy King's Forest. In the human world, 136 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:24,519 fairy wings are thought to have magical healing properties, and for this reason, 137 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,320 the wings of a fairy can fetch a very high price. As a 138 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:35,159 result, fairies have sometimes been killed by humans for their wings. Each fairy 139 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:39,960 apparently smells like a specific flower or herb, so for example, King smells 140 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:46,120 like gold osmanthus and Elaine smells like lavender. Next up, let's talk about 141 00:10:46,159 --> 00:10:50,799 the goddesses. Members of the Goddess clan also look similar to humans, but 142 00:10:50,919 --> 00:10:54,360 they do have one distinctive feature that instantly sets them apart. That feature is 143 00:10:54,399 --> 00:11:00,480 their large, white angelic wings, with lower ranked goddesses tending to have only 144 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,799 one pair of wings and higher ranked goddesses having more. The ruler of the 145 00:11:03,799 --> 00:11:09,720 Goddess clan, the supreme deity, who resides in the celestial realm appears to 146 00:11:09,759 --> 00:11:13,960 have at least five different pairs of wings. She is also enormous in size, 147 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,600 bigger even than the tallest giant. Although the name Goddess Clan can be 148 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:24,240 deceiving, there are both male and female Goddess Clan members. The Goddesses have 149 00:11:24,279 --> 00:11:28,399 been fighting against the demons for thousands of years, and even though the Goddess 150 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:33,720 Clan was on the winning side of the ancient Holy War, they also suffered 151 00:11:33,879 --> 00:11:37,440 major losses. In order to seal away the Demon Clan, members of the 152 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:43,799 Goddess Clan had to sacrifice their ability to maintain their physical forms when the seven 153 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,679 Dead they sinned the story begins. They are able to possess inanimate objects such 154 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,519 as a sword, and they can use the body on another living being as 155 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:54,080 a vessel, but they do not have a physical form of their own. 156 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:58,639 Goddesses are said to have the longest lifespan out of all the races, and 157 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,320 every member of their clan seem to be able to live for thousands of years. 158 00:12:01,639 --> 00:12:07,440 The Goddess Clan has its own special elite force known as the Four Archangels. 159 00:12:07,799 --> 00:12:11,240 The four Archangels are all powerful male angels and the highest ranking members of 160 00:12:11,279 --> 00:12:16,200 their race, second only to the Supreme Deity and her direct descendants. Their 161 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:20,120 strength is said to rival the Ten Commandments, which is the elite fighting force 162 00:12:20,159 --> 00:12:24,320 of the Demon Clan. Members of the Goddess Clan are known for a number 163 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:28,120 of unique abilities, including the power to heal, the ability to fly, 164 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:33,440 and the ability to purge and destroy dark souls such as the Souls or demons. 165 00:12:33,519 --> 00:12:37,240 Their power is associated with light and holiness, and their abilities can be 166 00:12:37,279 --> 00:12:41,519 extremely effective in fighting against the Demon Clan in particular. There is also a 167 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:46,440 subgroup of the Goddesses known as the Celestials. Their descendants of the Goddess Clan, 168 00:12:46,519 --> 00:12:50,480 and they lived in the Sky Temple, where they were almost completely isolated 169 00:12:50,519 --> 00:12:54,679 from the rest of the world, although they were allied with the Goddesses. 170 00:12:54,879 --> 00:12:58,480 Because they lived in such a remote location, the Celestials were removed from the 171 00:12:58,519 --> 00:13:01,559 worst effects of the Ancient Whole War. As a result, they survived the 172 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,840 war and did not lose their physical forms, but over time, their wings 173 00:13:05,879 --> 00:13:11,120 became smaller and their magic became weaker. So once we meet the Celestials in 174 00:13:11,159 --> 00:13:16,080 the present time, they are considerably weaker than full fledged goddesses, although they 175 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:22,600 still have long lifespans and similar powers, including arc and various healing ability. 176 00:13:22,879 --> 00:13:26,320 The Celestials play a major role in the Prisoners of the Sky movie, but 177 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:31,279 they are also directly referenced in the manga, so they are considered cannon. 178 00:13:31,519 --> 00:13:35,279 At some point, the Celestials came to believe that the demons won the ancient 179 00:13:35,279 --> 00:13:37,840 war and that the surface of the world was conquered by them. This is 180 00:13:37,919 --> 00:13:41,879 part of the reason why the Celestials chose to remain at the Sky Temple and 181 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:46,759 live in isolation from the outside world. And speaking of the demons, let's 182 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:54,360 discuss this incredibly powerful clan. Although many of them look monstrous and demonic in 183 00:13:54,399 --> 00:13:58,480 some way, the members of the Demon clan are actually quite diverse and their 184 00:13:58,519 --> 00:14:03,279 appearance varies greatly. There are many different types of demons, from lesser demons 185 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,720 who are identified primarily by their colors such as the gray demons, red demons, 186 00:14:07,799 --> 00:14:11,480 blue demons, white demons, and so on, to higher ranked demons 187 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,919 who often have a humanoid appearance. Many of these humanoid demons still have some 188 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:20,879 distinct features which distinguishes them from humans, such as demon marks on their bodies, 189 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:24,720 but some demons, like Meliodas can assume a completely human like form. 190 00:14:24,879 --> 00:14:28,639 Because of this, Meliodas can easily pass for human, and initially no one 191 00:14:28,679 --> 00:14:31,159 around him even knew that he was a demon, despite the fact that he 192 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,360 was living among humans and interacting with them every day. Aside from the external 193 00:14:35,399 --> 00:14:39,000 features, demons also have unique internal features that differentiate them from members of other 194 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:43,960 races. For instance, demons have more than one heart, and higher ranked 195 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:48,879 demons can have up to seven hearts. Demons tend to live about a thousand 196 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,399 years, although the highest ranked demons have demonstrated the ability to live for multiple 197 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,120 millennia, as we learn in the early arcs of the Seven delist Since story, 198 00:14:56,559 --> 00:15:01,080 humans are able to consume the blood of demons and become stronger because of 199 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:05,679 it, but those who are not compatible with the process will reject the demon 200 00:15:05,759 --> 00:15:09,120 blood and their bodies will explode. A human who has been exposed to demon 201 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:13,559 blood and has managed to master it within their body is able to use certain 202 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:18,480 demonic attacks like hell Blaze. During the Ancient Holy War, the Demon clan 203 00:15:18,639 --> 00:15:22,279 battled against all the other clans combined, including the humans, fairies, giants, 204 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:28,960 and goddesses. The demons were ultimately defeated and almost completely sealed away inside 205 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:33,200 the Coffin of Eternal Darkness, with only a few exceptions. Our Red Demon, 206 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,720 who somehow managed to avoid being sealed away, ended up destroying the Fairy 207 00:15:35,799 --> 00:15:41,679 King's forest and Fraudren, the Selflessness of the Ten Commandments, had been sealed 208 00:15:41,679 --> 00:15:45,600 away separately, but managed to escape when his seal was broken by some humans. 209 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,960 He then went on to possess the body of the Great Holy Night. 210 00:15:48,159 --> 00:15:52,639 Dreyfuss framed a seventh at least sins for the murder of Zaratras, and he 211 00:15:52,759 --> 00:15:56,879 ultimately released the other nine members of the Ten Commandments from the Coffin of Eternal 212 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,600 Darkness. And of course there's Meliodas, who is also a member of the 213 00:16:00,639 --> 00:16:06,200 Demon Clan but was not sealed away along with the other demons. The ruler 214 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,519 of the Demon Clan is the Demon King, and the demons come from a 215 00:16:08,519 --> 00:16:12,519 place known as the Demon Realm. The Demon King is the most powerful demon 216 00:16:12,639 --> 00:16:18,200 and the father of both Meliodas and Zeldris. At one point, the Demon 217 00:16:18,279 --> 00:16:21,879 King took half of his power and split it into ten pieces, then gave 218 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:26,480 each piece to one elite demon warrior in the form of a commandment. This 219 00:16:26,559 --> 00:16:30,399 is how the Ten Commandments were created, and they serve as the Demon Clan 220 00:16:30,519 --> 00:16:34,320 special forces who are specifically trained and equipped to destroy the enemies of the Demon 221 00:16:34,399 --> 00:16:38,799 Clan. Meliodas himself was once a leader of the Ten Commandments before turning his 222 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,720 back on them and betraying the Demon Clan in order to be with Elizabeth. 223 00:16:44,039 --> 00:16:47,919 Members of the Demon Clan are extremely powerful in general, and they are known 224 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:52,320 to look down on the other races. Demons tend to see humans as especially 225 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,840 weak and pitiful, and they are known to feed on the souls of humans 226 00:16:55,840 --> 00:17:00,399 in order to replenish their magical powers. That said, there are demons who 227 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,359 reject this type of thinking and who actively avoid war. Meliodas is, of 228 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,240 course a good example of this, but there are others, such as an 229 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:11,079 entire village full of demons who decided to desert from the battle during the Holy 230 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:17,039 War and live peacefully in the dahl Flare Mountain range. Powerful demons, like 231 00:17:17,079 --> 00:17:21,279 members of the Ten Commandments, can control lesser demons, and many demons possess 232 00:17:21,319 --> 00:17:25,599 a number of unique abilities, including demonic darkness, the power of flight, 233 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:30,440 the power to generate deadly dark flames called purgatory fire that can injure even an 234 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,480 immortal without them being able to regenerate, the ability to steal souls, the 235 00:17:33,519 --> 00:17:38,559 ability to transform into the unbelievably strong Indu a Beast of Destruction after sacrificing six 236 00:17:38,559 --> 00:17:42,240 of their hearts to do it, the ability to regenerate, and so on. 237 00:17:42,599 --> 00:17:47,119 And now that we've covered both goddesses and demons, we need to talk 238 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:52,240 about a new race that was created as the result of the unprecedented union between 239 00:17:52,319 --> 00:17:57,000 a demon and a goddess between Meliotas and Elizabeth. Their son, Tristan, 240 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:02,240 is given a special classification. In the sequel called The Four Knights of the 241 00:18:02,279 --> 00:18:07,400 Apocalypse, he is referred to as a nephelim, the impure child of a 242 00:18:07,519 --> 00:18:11,039 demon and a goddess. Tristan is the only known character in both the original 243 00:18:11,079 --> 00:18:15,480 series and the sequel who is a natural born Nephelim. We have seen other 244 00:18:15,519 --> 00:18:21,720 instances of someone using both demonic and goddess magic, like Miles slash Esterosa, 245 00:18:21,759 --> 00:18:25,960 but Tristan is the only true Nephelim from birth. This means that he has 246 00:18:26,039 --> 00:18:30,599 unique powers and abilities that no other character possesses. He has the power of 247 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,759 both light and darkness. Now, some might question whether just being a hybrid 248 00:18:34,799 --> 00:18:38,640 offspring of a demon and a goddess qualifies as being a member of a separate 249 00:18:38,759 --> 00:18:44,480 race. But I do believe that Nephelim deserves special attention because it was introduced 250 00:18:44,559 --> 00:18:48,519 as its own unique concept. Even though there are other hybrids in the series, 251 00:18:48,559 --> 00:18:52,480 like for example, Lancelot, Tristan wasn't just referred to as a goddess 252 00:18:52,519 --> 00:18:57,640 demon hybrid. Tristan was referred to as something specific and something that already exists 253 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:02,559 in our own world. And to me, this indicates that Knakaba wants us 254 00:19:02,599 --> 00:19:07,039 to pay special attention to Nephilim in our world. The Nephilim have historically been 255 00:19:07,039 --> 00:19:11,119 described in many different ways, depending on the source and the mythological tradition. 256 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,240 In some sources they are described as giants. In others, they are described 257 00:19:15,279 --> 00:19:21,279 as fallen angels. In others still they are angel human hybrids, and finally, 258 00:19:21,319 --> 00:19:25,160 in some sources, they are angel demon hybrids, like with Tristan. 259 00:19:25,519 --> 00:19:29,720 Actually, Tristan's case is extra interesting because his father is a demon and his 260 00:19:29,759 --> 00:19:33,480 mother is a goddess in a human body, So Tristan technically has goddess, 261 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:40,880 demon and human characteristics, and that human aspect could prove to be important because 262 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:45,880 of the unique connection between humans and chaos. Oh And speaking of chaos, 263 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,200 as I mentioned earlier, in the world of the Seven Delhi Sins, Chaos 264 00:19:48,279 --> 00:19:52,920 is a primordial being that created the world and all of its races, clans, 265 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,799 and species out of nothing. Merlin describes Chaos as an impure entity of 266 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:02,079 darkness that even the demon's fear, the pure entity of light that even the 267 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:07,400 goddess's worship. Chaos was likely inspired by Greek mythology, in which chaos is 268 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:11,160 avoid state that comes before the creation of the universe. The first generations of 269 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:17,440 gods in Greek mythology actually emerged out of chaos, which is similar to how 270 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:21,079 the Demon King and the Supreme Deity were created by Chaos in the Seven Deadly 271 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:25,759 Sins. However, Chaos in the series is more than just something that exists 272 00:20:25,839 --> 00:20:30,599 before the universe is created. Chaos still exists and still interacts with the world, 273 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,319 but after it is sealed away by the Supreme Deity and the Demon King, 274 00:20:34,599 --> 00:20:38,200 it takes the form of the Mother of Chaos, the same creature we've 275 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,160 known all along as hawks. Mama, the Mother of Chaos, is also 276 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:47,920 the mother of all the monsters and Monsters are another group of beings that exist 277 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,720 within the world of the Seven Deadly Sins. On top of the five major 278 00:20:51,839 --> 00:20:56,920 races, there are various subgroups of monsters, including vampires, beast men, 279 00:20:56,160 --> 00:21:00,759 and creatures who live in purgatory. The vampires were allied with the Demon Clan 280 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,160 during the Holy War, but they are not actually part of the Demon Clan 281 00:21:04,319 --> 00:21:08,759 and they were treated as subordinates by the demons. Vampires look like humans, 282 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,920 but they also have sharp fangs and they are able to turn humans into vampires 283 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:18,039 by biting them. The humans that they turn will then be compelled to serve 284 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:22,079 them. The vampires tend to feed on human blood, and as a race, 285 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,440 they are stronger than humans and have a much longer lifespan. The most 286 00:21:25,559 --> 00:21:29,200 notable member of the vampires is Gelda, who is, of course, the 287 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,319 lover of Zeldres. Beastmen are creatures who have a humanoid body but the head 288 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:38,640 of an animal, and they also have claws for and other animalistic features. 289 00:21:38,839 --> 00:21:41,680 The only beastmen that we really got to know in any significant way in the 290 00:21:41,759 --> 00:21:47,319 story is Hivago, a foxman or where fox, who took bond In as 291 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:51,480 a child and raised him Hivago was shown to be able to transform into a 292 00:21:51,559 --> 00:21:55,319 human, even though that is not his true form, so it is possible 293 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:59,559 that like fairies, all beastmen have the ability to change their appearance in order 294 00:21:59,559 --> 00:22:03,759 to look like humans. Beast Men have strong animalistic abilities and instincts, but 295 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:08,279 they were driven to the brink of extinction by humans. Historically, humans have 296 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,759 feared the beast men and seeing them as monsters, kind of like stories about 297 00:22:11,799 --> 00:22:15,680 evil werewolves in our own world, and so the beastmen have been hunted by 298 00:22:15,759 --> 00:22:19,480 humans and they've been driven into hiding and forced to steal from others in order 299 00:22:19,519 --> 00:22:23,200 to survive. Aside from Shivago, who is a ware fox, the other 300 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:27,440 beastmen that have been mentioned in the story include Jivago's son, also where Fox 301 00:22:27,559 --> 00:22:32,599 and a wolfman or werewolf that Meliotis and Liz were sent to hunt down in 302 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:37,160 the past. Creatures from Purgatory are monsters who were created by the Mother of 303 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:41,799 Chaos and who inhabit the incredibly extreme and inhospitable environment of Purgatory. These creatures 304 00:22:41,799 --> 00:22:45,599 often have features similar to the animals in our own world, but they can 305 00:22:45,599 --> 00:22:51,000 be a mixture of different animals, and they are often massive in size. 306 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:55,559 They can also live for millions of years. That said, they can also 307 00:22:55,599 --> 00:22:59,440 look pretty normal, say like an ordinary pig that just happens to be able 308 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:03,039 to talk. Hawk is actually a creature from Purgatory who was stolen from his 309 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:08,279 homeland by the Demon King and brought to Britannia to spy on Meliotes. Hawk 310 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:14,119 himself was not actually aware of this until later on in the series. Finally, 311 00:23:14,279 --> 00:23:17,920 there are some beings in the Seven Deadly Sins world that don't fit under 312 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,640 any real labels, such as, for example, the Lady of the Lake, 313 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:25,240 who was also created directly from chaos, but doesn't seem to belong to 314 00:23:25,279 --> 00:23:29,839 any specific race or group. There are also creatures who were created artificially through 315 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:33,440 the use of extremely powerful magic. A great example of this is the Goat's 316 00:23:33,599 --> 00:23:37,680 Sin of Lust Goether, who was actually a lifeless doll, but he was 317 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:42,440 brought to life by the demon Gother over three thousand years ago. And as 318 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:47,720 the Four Knights of the Apocalypse sequel manga continues, I'm sure that even more 319 00:23:47,759 --> 00:23:52,440 interesting races and creatures will be introduced to the story eventually. I look forward 320 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,880 to seeing what Nakaba has in store. For us next.
