These are not the only manga/anime to involve the Seven Deadly Sins. Other include: - Re: Zero kara hajimaru isekai seikatsu - Fullmetal Alchemist While it may seem similar, concepts of conspiracies to frame innocent are also a common occurence.

I read both, but besides a few overlaps on very rough concepts, like the ones you mention. I don't really think the stories are anything alike whatsoever.

@ManuelHoffmann there are more then a few overlaps. The OP ness of the MC, The main bad guy that seems is dead, turns out to be alive later etc. etc. The point of the question was that did either author work closely together to have these many similarities. It may be bias on my part, since it is known that sometimes similar stories are worked out independently, for example, White House Down and Olympus has Falled :x

Is Nanatsu No Taizai inspired from Ubel Blatt?
