Guide › Anime › The Seven Deadly Sins: Four Knights of the Apocalypse › The Seven Deadly Sins
Four Knights of the Apocalypse is the sequel to The Seven Deadly Sins, set sixteen years after the Holy War. A prophecy warns that four knights will one day destroy the world, and King Arthur of Camelot sends his knights to hunt them down. The story follows Percival, a cheerful boy raised on a remote island above the clouds, who learns he is tied to that prophecy and sets off across Britannia. This page covers 14 characters in four groups: Percival's travelling party, the young knights of the Kingdom of Liones, members of Tristan's squad, and the Holy Knights of Camelot who stand against them. Several heroes from The Seven Deadly Sins return as parents and rulers. Every description stays at the point where the character is introduced, so there are no spoilers.
Percival is the protagonist, a 16-year-old who looks much younger than his age. He grew up with his grandfather Varghese on God's Finger, a peak high above the clouds, and leaves home after a Holy Knight of Camelot attacks them. He is pure-hearted, loves cooking and has a strong sense of justice, yet he refuses to kill even his enemies. Japanese voice: Sho Komura.
Donny is an apprentice in a travelling troupe of street performers whom Percival meets soon after leaving home. He is a nephew of Hauser, a Holy Knight of Liones, but ran away from knight training. At first he is timid and quick to flee, and he believes his telekinesis can only lift small things. Travelling with Percival slowly brings out his loyal side. Japanese voice: Kikunosuke Toya.
Nasiens is a quiet young apothecary raised by an old pharmacist named Ord. After Percival saves Ord, Nasiens joins the journey out of gratitude. Nasiens is cautious and calm, but very brave in a fight, and has a habit of biting their lip when excited. Their magic refines poisons absorbed into the body, which lets them fight with toxins, sleep mists and antidotes. Japanese voice: Aino Shimada.
Anne is the daughter of a noble family in the region of Sistana. Her late mother was a Holy Knight of Camelot, and Anne dreams of becoming a knight just like her. She is strong-willed and stubborn, with a keen sense of justice, though a sheltered upbringing leaves gaps in her common sense. She fights with a rapier, and her magic tells her when someone is lying. Japanese voice: Kanna Nakamura.
Tristan is the son of Meliodas and Elizabeth and a prince of Liones. Born to a demon father and a goddess mother, he carries both kinds of power in his eyes and wields twin swords. He is gentle and calm, is happiest when people say he takes after his mother, and is reluctant to use his father's demon side. Lancelot is his childhood friend. Japanese voice: Ayumu Murase.
Lancelot is the son of Ban and Elaine, two heroes of The Seven Deadly Sins, and the prince of the kingdom of Benwick. King Meliodas tasks him with finding the knights of the prophecy and bringing them to Liones. He is cool-headed, often speaks down to his elders and can read minds, which helps him predict an opponent's moves. Japanese voice: Koki Uchiyama.
Gawain is a young knight with a golden magic called Dawn, a sunlight power that recalls one of the original Seven Deadly Sins. She is arrogant and supremely sure of herself, but when she loses she sulks and cries like a child. Her mix of huge power and childish moods makes her one of the most unpredictable allies Percival meets in Liones. Japanese voice: Ai Fairouz.
Meliodas is the hero of The Seven Deadly Sins, the former captain of that order and now King of Liones. He is Tristan's father and Elizabeth's husband. In this story he stays mostly in the background as a ruler and mentor figure, the one who names Percival and his friends Holy Knights. He is still a demon by birth. Japanese voice: Yuki Kaji.
Isolde is a member of Tristan's squad, a unit made up of his childhood friends. She is a very tall young woman with a crush on Tristan, and anything involving him can send her out of control. In battle she swings a club and uses bomb magic, planting explosions that go off a moment after she strikes. Japanese voice: Atsumi Tanezaki.
Kion is the son of the Holy Knight Gilthunder and a member of Tristan's squad. He is devoted to Tristan and openly admires him, while being sharp-tongued with almost everyone else, including his teammates. His magic summons spirits to fight for him, the same kind of power used by Ironside, though on a smaller scale. Japanese voice: Soma Saito.
Elizabeth Liones is Tristan's mother and the wife of King Meliodas, and she belongs to the goddess clan. Fans of The Seven Deadly Sins know her as that series' heroine; here she appears as queen of Liones and as a parent. Tristan's gentleness and his holy powers come from her side of the family, and he takes it as a compliment when people say so. Japanese voice: Sora Amamiya.
Arthur Pendragon is the young king of Camelot, a character carried over from The Seven Deadly Sins. He rebuilt Camelot after it was destroyed in the Holy War, but the effort has changed him deeply. He wants Britannia to become a kingdom for humans only, treats other races with cruelty and sees the Four Knights as the greatest threat to that goal. Japanese voice: Sachi Kokuryu.
Ironside, the Red Knight, is one of the elite Holy Knights of Camelot known as the Four Calamities. He is the knight whose attack on God's Finger sets the story in motion, and he treats Percival with open contempt. He is a master of spirit magic who can summon powerful elementals, which makes him one of the deadliest enemies of the first season. Japanese voice: Toshiyuki Morikawa.
Pellegarde, the Black Knight, is another of Camelot's Four Calamities. He is loud and big-hearted, and after meeting Percival he likes him so much that he ignores his orders and tries to take him on as an apprentice. He questions King Arthur's methods, yet he stays loyal to Camelot for personal reasons. His magic controls blazing fire. Japanese voice: Rikiya Koyama.
