Synopsis

While preparing a birthday feast for the king of Liones, Meliodas and Hawk search for a rare skyfish and inadvertently pass through a portal to the Sky Temple. There, Meliodas is mistaken for Solaad, a young Celestial who has left his isolated homeland in search of the legendary protector Oshiro.

Solaad encounters the remaining Seven Deadly Sins, while the Sky Temple comes under attack from Bellion and the Six Knights of Black. The anime-original adventure is set after the Sins have reunited and introduces the Celestials, a winged people descended from the Goddess Clan, while expanding upon the ancient conflict with the Demon Clan.
