Similar to how Hiro Mashima has trouble letting go of his Fairy Tail characters even after moving into other series, Suzuki Nakaba has had a love of Arthurian characters for a long while even before this series. However, of course they shine brightest in a medieval action series that, truthfully, deserved better than the deteriorating animation quality it got as it went on.

What to Expect From The Seven Deadly Sins Manga?
The only real thing of note for both Seven Deadly Sins and Four Knights of the Apocalypse is the anime can suffer from animation and pacing issues.

You don’t need to read either manga series from the beginning for anything skipped in the story, but doing so would provide a better story experience.
