The smash hit The Seven Deadly Sins is getting a sequel based in their fantasy version of Edinburgh. It follows the son of the hero Meliodas, Tristan, with a time jump.
Yuuki Kaji will reprise his role as Meliodas from the main series. Meliodas’ son Tristan will be voiced as a boy by Mikako Komatsu, and as a teenager by Ayumu Murase. Sora Amamiya as Elizabeth, Jun Fukuyama as King, Aoi Yki as Diane, Tatsuhisa Suzuki as Ban, and Yuuhei Takagi as Gowther are among the returning cast members.
Grudge of Edinburgh is a two part series/movie that IMDB describes as;
Tristan inherits the power of the Goddess Clan and can heal people’s wounds and injuries, but he often ends up hurting others due to his inability to control his Demon Clan power. To protect his family, Tristan heads to Edinburgh Castle and meets a host of new friends along the way.
The first trailer had mixed responses on YouTube as fans debated the change of art style.
