<p>They have a power level of 420 each because, when a clone is made, it has half the power of the original.

<p>In <em>Nanatsu no Taizai</em> season 2 episode 2, it's explained if Meliodas makes clones, his original power level is divided by the number of clones he makes. </p>

<p>For 1 clone, the power level is 1685, which seems correct.</p>

<p><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/XfR9al.png" alt="1 clone = 1685"></p>

<p>However, if he makes 4 clones, their power level will be 420 each.</p>

<p><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/JCEcnl.jpg" alt="4 clones = 420 each"></p>

<p>Mathematically, 3370 divided by 4 is 840, and when divided by 8 is 420.</p>

<p>But, why is it 420 not 840? Is this a mistake on the anime production?</p>

In *Nanatsu no Taizai* season 2 episode 2, it's explained if Meliodas makes clones, his original power level is divided by the number of clones he makes.

For 1 clone, the power level is 1685, which seems correct.

![1 clone = 1685](https://i.sstatic.net/XfR9al.png)

However, if he makes 4 clones, their power level will be 420 each.

![4 clones = 420 each](https://i.sstatic.net/JCEcnl.jpg)

Mathematically, 3370 divided by 4 is 840, and when divided by 8 is 420.

But, why is it 420 not 840? Is this a mistake on the anime production?
