Every single battle shounen out there goes back to this
>>
It's cool and classic, but every enemies they fight die forever and we never see them again. dying in this show happens a lot and it's FOREVER.
>>
>>283543716
Yeah I know. Isn't that cool? It keeps the cast compact. See Bleach to see what happen when nobody is allowed to die
>>
>>283543755
I'm not against villain dying, but it's full of random villain appearing for a very short while and then dying next episode. You believe you will see them for a long time, but no, they just die.

even thought some of them became extremely popular for some reason, Misty is probably popular for being a faggot.

Battle auras as a quantified measure of power all trace back to Saint Seiya and Hokuto no Ken.

Sanctuary Arc literally invented a genre in shounen.
Soul Society Arc, Sasuke Recovery Arc, Enies Lobby Arc etc., are all copy of it.

>>283544752
An entire arc structure blueprint hails from Saint Seiya, the Sanctuary defined the rescue arc repeated by several Shounen manga thereafter; Bleach went above and beyond by straight up copying it to a modern era.

That's called a "Damsel in Distress Arc" you vacuous philistine. They've existed in fiction for hundreds if not thousands of years. This is like crediting Dragon Ball for creating tournament arcs when it was just taking inspiration from kung-fu flicks. There's no way Seiyafags can conceivably be this stupid.

Facts.

S3 when?
>>
>>283547469
Why spent time typing this whole post only to out yourself as completely ignorant of the subject at hand?

The Sanctuary isn't merely a "Damsel In Distress Arc", there's a specific structure to it, how the enemy base is reached, how the antagonists are fought, and how the arc concludes. This exact script is followed by Soul Society and Ennies Lobby, beat by beat.

Stop pretending you are smart, it is not working.
>>
>>283547469

* Righteous place that you have to fight against due personal reasons: Soul Society = The Sanctuary.

* Elite generals that are technically in the good side, but they are antagonists due differing current objectives: Gotei 13 = Gold Saints.

* New tier of power the elite generals have that the main characters must also attain to stand a chance: Bankai = 7th Sense.

* Elite generals that actually see the main characters point and choose to help them: Kyoraku and Ukitake = Mu and Aioria

* After all is said and done the generals and the main characters reach an understanding, becoming close allies in which the generals will battle against future foes by their side: Hueco Mundo = Hades Saga.

It's not a damsel rescue, it is a whole set of story beats that makes The Sanctuary what it was, and what following authors took notice of. Educate yourself before presenting yourself as the guy who thinks they know better.

Anyone here have that plot and character comparison with Kimetsu No Yaiba?

I've also noticed some Saint Seiya anons posting in KnY threads being jealous of the manga's popularity, believing that Saint Seiya might have been just as successful if they didn't fumble international release so hard.
>>
>>283551344
Saint Seiya has the most bland enemy characters and it's full of poser characters. "Look he is so powerful" and he does nothing. Even the character design of the enemies is predictable as fuck:
1 - The easy enemy giant
2 - The dangerous ugly assassin
3 - The powerful and serious bishounen with long hair

It aged very badly.

>>283543679
Being Saint Seiya fan is awful because Kurumada never cared about Saint Seiya. Thank heavens I abandoned the fandom in 2018. You only have three options as being a Saint Seiya fan:

1 - If you are purist just pretend everything ended in 1991.

2 - If you always wished a more mature Saint Seiya with full potential, just read Lost Canvas, consider it canon and pretend everything else don't exist.

3 - Be a masochist and pretend Kurumada is a genius, Next Dimension is a god tier brilliant manga and watch/read low quality and childish spin-offs and anime.

Out of approximately 40 enemies, about 8 of them survive. And only two of those enemies actually mattered even in that arc

Three of them died (though they came back as souls)

The females ARE good and attractive (especially the ones that don't show their faces) DESPITE the author not putting effort in them.

I have fond memories of it, however, I still remember after 20 years how tiring it can get sometimes because some episodes have too much talking and every new attack has to be announced and explained.

I'm glad I got to watch it as a kid though. I'm still in love with Marin.

Ultimately this goes back to Ashita no Joe.

>>283569449
Ashita no Joe doesn't have the same characteristic flavor of your average shounenshit, the oldest manga that has it is Ring ni Kakero

Kurumada had done it previously with Ring ni Kakero, though.

I actually watched what little of it aired in the states when I was a kid. The version with Bowling for Soup covering "I Ran (So Faw Away)" as its OP. I enjoyed it quite a lot so I have nothing against the series at all. I even bought some figures.

That said, I retract nothing about my statement regarding Seiyafags being media illiterate third-worlders. It's an irrefutable reality if their fandom.
>>
>>283569791
It was all part of an evolution.
Ring ni Kakero was a lot closer to Ashita no Joe, but he started adding aura shit. SS is just a further step in that evolution.
Also, despite Ashita no Joe having no aura crap, he's an orphan, the lowest of the lowest, striving to get through life, sponsored by a rich princess-like lady who later has feelings towards him. Both Joe and Seiya are society's trash and they progress in life through sheer effort and determination.
>>
>>283548752
So only one of the arcs the person in question mentioned actually follows this formula, and he was in fact probably a spic attributing stories that came after to something that very possibly didn't influence them at all? Got it. Thanks for affirming my belief that Seiyafags are stupid as bricks.

And learn to greentext or you'll keep outing yourself as a newfag.

On the contrary, when SS started airing many dozens of anime were broadcasted for two decades or more. Thanks for showing once again that Americans are utterly ignorant, though.

If you read any modern shounenshit and then read Ring ni Kakero you will feel similar vibes, but you won't feel the same from Ashita no Joe

It's wild how much earlier and more prolifically Latina America received major anime adaptations, yet so many of the fans from the region remain to this day utterly fucking ignorant if the history of anime and manga. At least you got your Gohan Blanco though, amirite? But by all means, Pedro. Keep seething.

Is it true that the reason why a Ring ni Kakero anime never got made when the manga was being published is that at that time Kurumada hated animation in general and wanted nothing to with it?
>>
>>283570143

Yes, you imbecile, that's what you call casuals. And Saint Seiya is and has always been entry level here. As it happened with Naruto in other countries, or Dragon Ball, or Sailor Moon. Even with Evangelion and Death Note. Most of Muricans who started with those are completely ignorant of history of anime and manga, and the same happens here too.
>>
>>283570213
It has nothing to do with nationality, it has to do with which anime was your entry anime. Most people who watch anime are casuals and don't care about it. They might watch a series or two if you recommend them, but that's it.

The issue with Kinnikuman is that it sticks to the "official wrestling matches" format once it goes fighting focused, rather than becoming something more free flowing without sticking to mimicking a real life sport unlike later battle shounen.

But, yeah, in spite of that there's a wide range of special abilities given to the enemies.

I find funny that Kurumada once told a story that at the beginning he tried to be realistic with Ring ni Kakero until he met his idol Ikki Kajiwara and he told him to stop trying to be realistic. Not sure if Kurumada is aware of it but that anecdote is deeply Oedipical. He was a son still unsure of leaving his father's shadow but after getting his father's approval, he was finally ready to fly and let his imagination goes wild. Especially interesting because Kurumada works are full of daddy issues and his own father ordered him to quit manga and get a real job

Kurumada born poor so he knows the importance of money. Also he refuses to be called mangaka because according to him that title belong to masters like Tezuka and Yokoyama. He prefers to be called mangaya (manga seller). Also Otokozaka was a huge failure and Shueisha threatened to remove Kurumada's space on WSJ. Kurumada and Shueisha always had a tense relationship. Apparently Kurumada has problems with authority figures since school.

Yes. Shueisha wanted a clean ending but Kurumada wanted to leave an open ending because even then he was convinced that some day he was going to finish Otokozaka. And he did

I bet Kurumada never watched Symphogear but a crossover kinda make sense considering Saint Seiya is one of Symphogear's inspirations and Symphogear's fandom is overwhelming male, overweight and smelly while SS fandom are mostly fujos

So this is why he doesn't care about Saint Seiya. It explains everything. I love Saint Seiya, but I hate liking this anime, I wish I've never seen it.

And despite all hardships he managed to succeed.

>he doesn't care about Saint Seiya
A common myth repeated by retards who hate Kurumada, only because they don't like the manga or the fact that the author himself prefers a less popular manga that he had created. Going by that logic, Toriyama disliked Dragon Ball.

Kurumada wankers are hilarious. The only fandom that still care about Saint Seiya are +27 years old millennials, it's not like Dragon Ball that plenty of zoomers and alphas like it. There are no kids to censorship blood, sex or violence and make characters with more depth.

Lost Canvas anime is on par of 80's anime. Adult looking characters, dark atmosphere, blood and violence, fanservice... Only the soundtrack sucks.

Definitely better than everything after Tenkai Hen that treat the audience like kids. I miss the time when Saint Seiya treated the audience like adults by Toei and Kurumada. Tenkai Hen was the last time.

Came here to talk about Kinnikuman being older and more influential, but other anons already said it:

>>283568319
>>283549745
>>283550353
>>283568400
>>283570299

Kinnikuman was about a super strong but dumb protagonist who eats a lot. He is secretly an alien who was raised on Earth. He was trained by his master Kamehameha, who lives in an island (of Hawaii in this case). It had tournament arcs. It had numerical power levels as a plot point, and they would be overcome by the protagonist increasing his power level due to his emotional state. Dead characters would regularly be revived. Villains would often become allies. Basically most things people associate with Dragon Ball are Kinnikuman things that Toriyama was probably parodying (power levels in DBZ are obviously a parody and not meant to be taken seriously IMO), or doing coincidentally.

HnK is like 5 different things seamlessly melded together, calling it just "violence jack" is extremely reductive and people cite HnK as inspiration even into the 2000s and the 2010s (such as FMA and parts of YYH and HxH, Jojo and Piccolo DB and onward are also an obvious ones) for the way it carried itself. Of course, it's pretty different from the regular fare since it was pre-codification with DB, but it was undoubtedly a great influence and it drew on everything from violence jack to wuxia to 80s hollywood to build itself.
>>
>>283578036
A woman tending the wounds of a man. Damn, that had never happened before Hokuto no Ken, it's totally unheard of.

HnK is great and has been highly influential, SS is great and has been highly influential, Kinnikuman is great and has been highly influential.

>>
>>283578053
It was just a shitpost because I wanted to mention Ring ni Kakero. You forgot to mention Bruce Lee as the biggest HnK influence since that's the main character pretty much.

>>283577882
Sure, but Mad Max is just a Violence Jack clone anyway.
>>
>>283578182
Mad Max and Violence Jack is more of a Robocop/8man situation where it looks like one ripped off the other but at that time that was fucking impossible due to Violence Jack and 8man not being accessible series to westerners

Let's say you were in charge of adapting it in Hollywood. You start with the black saints saga, it does ok, then silver saints, people start liking it, and once you do gold saints it becomes really succesful.

Do you do Asgard afterwards, or Poseidon?
And when you reach Hades, how the fuck do you explain the threat to humanity? You can't make an eclipse that renders the whole planet in shadows, it doesn't matter where you place the moon between the planet and the sun, the moon is smaller, so complete obscurity is impossible.

In the manga glaxian wars, black saints, bad boy Ikki and silver saints happen as continuous concise arc. There only real pause is basically between silvers/leo's 'attack' and the 12 houses.
A 2 movies story would look like that. I don't think SS is filmable tho, on top of live action anime being shit by definition.

Asgard sucks and doesn't exists in the manga, and it shows. It messes with the power levels a lot.

Poseidon is poor man's 12 houses and its only purpose is to act as a connective tissue between the "mundane" fights of the 1st series and the mythological war against divine beings of the hades saga. Without it, the jump would be too jarring.

Omega's biggest issue was them trying to make it a franchise on its own rather than just part of Saint Seiya. So you had Omega and Saint Seiya content completely separate from each other even during Omega's run, which was stupid.

It really was the one modern Saint Seiya project that had chance of actually pushing the series forward, but keeping things separate killed it and crippled the series overall.

If from the start they had intended to integrate thigns we wouldn't have ended up with stuff like Omega's cloth design.

Reading Ring ni Kakero convinced me that Kurumada is genuinely autistic. The guy has been drawing for 50 years straight at this point, and yet he barely shows any artistic growth after so long. He is no different from Chris Chan that still draws like a preschool kid just because in his mind his style is already perfect.

Latinos admire manlyness and Saint Seiya is manly as fuck. Reminder that in Japan there's no contradiction between being gay and being manly. See for example to Shinji Ikari. Nobody hates Shinji more than a spic because they see him unmanly. Funnily enough, Seiya used to receive Shinji-tier hate during the 00s and early 10s but it started to lose steam after the fandom became older and more nostalgic and finally die with Jesus Barrero

Yeah, Saori is way too attractive. Makes sense, being the mortal vessel for the daughter of Zeus.

>Saori's hair cascading over her breasts
There's a scene just like this in the anime. I don't remember the episode but one of the bronze saints is fighting some renegade saint, he gets hit and falls on the ground next to her, she tries to aid him and leans forward, revealing her cleavage and with her hair over it.
That awakened something in 12 year old me back in the day.

Fun fact: I remember Saori being really hated back then because she was an annoying, spoiled bitch in the beginning. She does grow and mature a lot as a character as she starts to behave more and more like an actual goddess once she understands what she is and her responsibilities to her saints, but the initial image of her being a bitch stuck for a while with part of the fans back then.

You mean this one? This one is when Seiya jumped with her to avoid fighting against Crow and Shaina.

Regarding Saori, she awoke so many things in teenager me I even lost count. Although some things were inside me already and I kinda knew, with her it became serious. Damsel in distress, somnophilia, limp, hair, lift and carry, even sadism. Seeing her laying unconscious so many times did a number on me.

For me it's more the fact that Saori exhales femininity. You can see that most female characters that have lots of fans (in movies and tv series too) are simply very feminine, even if it's displayed in different ways. On the opposite hand, female characters that display masculine behavior are usually disliked or ignored at best.

Meanwhile, real life western women have more and more masculine energy each passing day.

I know I'm an outlier but I was a huge fan that watched it every saturday on Toonami. I got all the figures Bandai released, and I mean all of them since KB Toys clearanced them out since no one wanted them. The 5" figures had great detail and articulation and their cloths formed. In a way way better than Myth Cloths since you can actually pose them and the sculpts of the armors work since they don't disasemble.
There were also some 8" figures that you could put their armor on, it was plastic but who cares, they looked good for the time.
I also got a bunch of the DVDs but the DVDs were uncensored but they had a different dub with shittier voices. I wish I could find downloads to the original KOTZ dub.

I gave it a chance after hearing some seemingly hyperbolic praise but it really is the spring fountain of Shonen. The power-scaling is compact and tasteful, the characters are all interesting and with just enough layering in characterization and the art/worldbuilding/lore/fights are all excellent. Highly recommended with full force.

But he absolutely did which is why he spend his last years on Earth spitefully making sure the franchise is in the worst shape its ever been, taking ideas from "NONCANON" (so stupid) movies and specials and RAPING them to death with his stupid, infantile "reboots" and he fucked over all companies involved with the rights and costing the franchise valuable time and money. Not to mention he's made his contempt known for decades. He was a gag manga shitter who Torishima and his second editor wrangled into making DB what it was. It's all due to the editors. The second editor especially came up with EVERYTHING memorable and cool about DBZ. He's the biggest hack in manga/anime history.
