FFFFFFFFF, I just wrote a long post that was eaten!

Anyway, the gist of it was that there's no way they could cover 90-ish chapters in a 2 cour series without a lightning fast pacing. The 2011 Hunter x Hunter series was relatively fast-paced and only managed to cover 38 chapters in 20 episodes for its first arc. The second arc only covered 5 chapters in 4 episodes.

And the arc still has many loose ends, so it's far from complete. Ban and Meliodas rescuing Elizabeth is only a small part of the arc. For example - we still have to find out what happened to Gowther. Arthur and Hendricksen's battle hasn't been covered. Margaret, Elizabeth and Hawk have only just reuinted. Gilthunder isn't out of the battle yet. Who is the teleporting Holy Knight? Who is the myserious cloaked person? King and Helbram's fight may wrap up next chapter, but we've still a long way to go.
