Escanor is one of the main characters of anime/manga/light novel fantasy series The Seven Deadly Sins. He is the only human member of the Seven Deadly Sins, serving as the Lion's Sin of Pride. He is the inheritor of Mael's Sunshine ability, causing him to drastically shift between a powerful arrogant brute in day and weakling at night.
He is voiced by Tomokazu Sugita, who also voiced Gyomei Himejima in the Japanese Dub and Kyle Herbert in the English dub.

- He cares deeply for all of his friends, even loving Merlin and having undying loyalty to her.
