Full Counter「
Having learned it from Chandler, Meliodas used it as his main magic power since he was unable to use his original power coming from the Demon King.
Description[]
Full Counter enables its wielder to reflect attacks aimed at them back at their enemy, but with more than double the power; therefore, the stronger the opponent's powers are, the stronger the user's power becomes. However, the main drawbacks to this power are that the user cannot initiate any attacks themselves[1], and they would not be able to reflect attacks if the opponent does not allow them to read the nature and timing of their attacks.[2]
Full Counter have been applied in different ways::
- Meliodas can only reflect magical attacks "directly" used against him, but this does not work when the attack is "indirect".[3] Thanks to Lostvayne's Physical Clones, Meliodas can multiply the magnitude of his Full Counter, as his doubles can use it independently of him.
- Estarossa can only reflect physical attacks, which means that his opponents can use Magic against him.
- Chandler, being the one who developed this power, can reflect both physical attacks and magical attacks.
- Tristan can also use Full Counter, thanks to his father's teachings, but initially seems unable to master it as well, earning him the nickname "Foul Counter"「ボロカウンター, Boro Kauntā」[4]. However, over the years, Tristan becomes capable of using Full Counter as well as his father.
Techniques[]
Meliodas[]
- Counter Vanish「カウンターバニッシュ, Kauntā Banisshu」: With his palm facing an incoming attack, Meliodas folds his thumb and little finger. He then, rather than reflecting "magic" attacks, completely disperses the attacks used against him.[5]
- Revenge Counter「リベンジ・カウンター, Ribenji Kauntā」: Meliodas turns off his abilities so that he can take damage. After Meliodas has taken enough damage, he charges his blade with power and strikes his enemy with it. This is considered to be Meliodas' ultimate attack. When Meliodas used Revenge Counter against Hendrickson, Gowther stated that he had a survival chance of 0.2%. This ability is reminiscent of the Original Demon's power, Crisis.
Combined Techniques[]
- Seven Deadly Sins: A combination technique. Meliodas creates six clones with Lostvayne to reflect the attacks of each of the other six Sins directed against the target: Ban's Hunter Fest and Banishing Kill; King's Sunflower; Diane's Rush Rock; Gowther's Blackout Arrow ; Merlin's Exterminate Ray; and Escanor's Cruel Sun. After the initial reflection, Meliodas reflects them once again, merging all attacks into a single powerful one in the process. [6]
- Seven Deadly Sins Combined Technique: Fugutaiten「＜
七 つの大罪 ＞合 技 不 倶 戴 天 , "Nanatsu no Taizai" Gōgi - Fugutaiten; lit. "To not Allow the Sworn Enemy to Live in This World"」: After Merlin uses Power Full Convertion to combine the strongest techniques from all the Sins, Meliodas's Trillion Dark, Escanor's Final Prominence, Gowther's Kill Switch, Diane's Jet Hammer, King's Sabaki no Yari and Ban's Crazy Rush, into a single attack, Meliodas creates various Physical Clones to reflect the attack various times, multiplying the power of the attack each time.[7]
