The spring 2017 anime series Seven Mortal Sins kicked off in Japan today and that means the folks at NBC Universal Japan are ensuring that fans get their preorders in for the first volume. They’ve cut a standard short 15-second promotional spot to remind fans who just enjoyed the show to get their preorders in at their favorite shop, especially if there are limited edition items that various retailers will have.
The fanservice and action series has set Kinji Yoshimoto of Queen’s Blade to direct based on the script by Masashi Suzuki. Sachiko Yasuda is working on the character designs created originally be NiO and it’s being animated at TNK x Artland.
The Japanese cast includes Eri Kitamura as Sin of Pride, Lucifer, Akane Fujita as Leviathan, Arisa Sakuraba as Satan, Ai Kakumuma as Sloth, Yoko Hikasa as Greed, Azusa Tadokoro as Astaroth, Shizuka Itou as Belial and Megumi Toda as Maria Totsuka.
Mia REGINA will be performing the opening song “My Sweet Maiden” as well as the ending theme song “Welcome to our diabolic paradise” for the show.
Plot concept: Because she committed the sin of pride against God, the Great Angel Lucifer was cast into Hell and became a Fallen Angel. Also at the lowest level of Hell, the hierarchy of demons have sealed away Lucifer’s powers. Lucifer had lost everything, but along with the Demon King of Envy, Leviathan, that admires Lucifer and a high school girl she met on Earth named Totsuka Maria, she becomes the Demon King of Pride Lucifer and begins her journey to revenge on the Seven Demon Kings of Hell. A book of Revelations with the “Seven Deadly Sins” portrayed by beautiful Demon Kings is about to begin.
