Welcome back, everyoneToday, we find out the Pope's true identityPrevious:https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/289518886/https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/289543551/https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/289567418/>>289592114>>289616544>> 289642516>> 289674137>> 289699612>>289724870>>289750649>>289778069
>>289801743Man, most of Kurumada's author notes are weirdly melancholic
after the Sanctuary arc ends, would it be interesting to make a pool asking people about their favorite gold saint, or would everyone just vote for their own zodiac sign?
>>289780875No one could answer this... Please.
>>289801969Pisces could actually be top tier if given prep time and field buff.And hoping that the opponent doesn't have a big special move to nuke the garden
>>289802265Honestly, how harsh the training was depended entirely on your master zo Andromeda being the second worst was fake news.
Basically, the Top 3 Worst Bronze Training Places that we know are>Death Queen Island>Andromeda Island>Sicily
>>289802312I mean for me Hyoga's isn't any easier than those besides Death Queen. Death queen wouldn't be as bad if it had someone like Marin.
>>289801870>I don't like those kinds of commentsHits too close to home, eh?
>>289802004Were they in a hotel room when he punched June?No, wait, this scene is new, I was confusing it with Cassios & Shina.
>>289802379Oh my GodIs it Moses with his Beyblade?
By the way, the anime had to make a lot of shit up for the Shun flashbacks, because... I genuinely can't remember why
>>289802004Why does Shun wear only the most homosexual clothing?
>>289802254His anime design was cooler
At least Daidalos died while Argentina was World Champ
>>289802042I can't even remember half of them.
>>289802481Er...Aphrodite, have you looked into a mirror recently?
>>289802481That first panel is erotic
>>289802128I don't remember there's one like that before this. Only remember Shun's chain vagueposting before Ikki shows up from the Sagittarius Pandora Box, no box hitting occured.
>>289802205Now that I think about it, this is probably where Kubo got the idea for Senbonzakura Kageyoshi.
Amazing how Kurumada is much more competent than Kubo in NOT making the mc's friends utter jobbers.
>>289802634Nah, sakuras are often associated with death because they are said to bury corpses under them and there's a common subtext of beauty that hides horror
>>289802634Didnt he say that SS was his biggest inspiration?
>>289802672At least he got a new cloth in time to die to Aphrodite.
>>289802708Shinigami captains and the whole Soul Society arc are the Gold/Sanctuary arc
>>289802672>>289802703gigantic fucking asspull but at least it fits the idea of his character
>>289802346>>289802364But Perseus helped Andromeda in the legend...?
>>289802414>Beyblade MosesHeh, remembering that always makes me chuckle.
>>289802481Bitch, you're even more feminine than Shun and that's saying a lot.
>>289802773Shun learned wind powers on his own while Hyoga for ice had to be held by a Gold's hand btw
>>289802627Toryama TRACED this
>>289802686>Who said Espadas are numbered 1 to 10?
>>289802773JET STREAM ATTACK?! FINALLY SOMETHING KURUMADA TRACED!
>>289801735This is a very special chapter; it has paved the way for and sown the seeds of many manga titles such as *Boku no Pico*, *Papa to Kiss in the Dark*, and *Natsuyasumi*. This is Kurumada at his absolute best.
>>289802832This is going to end like Shiryu's "unbreakable" shield.
>>289801870Nanto Kokakuken master guard the Pisces Temple?!
>>289803031[only in the asgard filler arc against mime i think? and in the legend of the crimson youth movie, aside for that the nebula stream still works perfectly]
>>289803063Ctrl+S, anon
>>289803121Bullshit.
>>289803093shit my bad, thanks OP you are the coolest
>>289803206Wait, it was that easy?
>>289802703OH SHIT, IT'S ON NOW.
>>289802042>Top TierAioria, Shaka, Saga>High TierMu, Dohko>Mid TierMilo, Camus>Low TierAldebaran, Shura>Bottom TierDeathmask, AphroditeMy personal ranking. Aioros is dead, so he's not being considered.
No way, it's-...Some guy?
>>289803224>breaking news, authorities are investigating reports that poisonous rose petals are presumably killing residents and wildlife near the city of Athens
>>289803334ENTER
>>289802254Why was he completely different in the anime?
>>289803334Whomst? Is there supposed to be a twist here somwhere?
>>289803312Shura is at least high tier and definetly stronger than Aioria
>>289803334ENTER THE STRONGEST
>>289803364The twist is that the master looks like a nice guy
>>289803366>t. Capricornfag
>>289803312>Deathmask that lowLow IQ rank. He was more interesting and fun than 75% other gold saints. Milo and Camus are fucking doormats.
>>289803463The original had the name in Greek as Nikke
>>289802205>Se ha desvanecido como el rocÃo de la mañana
>>289803454>Use Nike, the goddess of victory, Seiya.>Just do it.
>>289803312I actually like Deathmask and Aphrodite
>>289803477>"Also, I've been wanting to know what happened to the Parthenon just before I went back to Japan, and you're probably my best bet to find out"
>>289803239>but now I can see for myselfOkay, so he really is pretending he didn't give us the most obvious subtext that Seiya saw Marin's face ages ago.
>>289803334Where is his color changing beard?
>>289803366Despite what it looks like, I'm ranking them by how much I like them, not power (it just so happens my favorites are very powerful).
>>289803454Huh, so mangakaman separated the Aegis and the Medusa head's shield.
>>289803364Every masked guy in anime is handsome under his mask
>>289803555In the anime, Marin got beaten up by some random guy who wasn't even a Saint
>>289803581That shield's powers are greatly exaggerated.
>>289803568This seems way too important to cut out.
>>289803555Bah, now they are ignoring Mount Everest. And if you're not going with literal height, why not use Greece's most famous sacred mountain, Mt. Olympus?
>>289803555I forgot Kurumada didn't draw the panel with the patriarch's corpse, the lazy old bastard. How can you drop that bomb in TEXT??
>>289803581Is that the first time in this manga the big three gods are mentioned?
>>289803603Wasn't cut out. That other scene happened during the Leo fight, but Marin still went to star hill afterwards. Plus, she wasn't beaten, she just dropped herself and the other dude off a cliff.
Be honest with me, is there anybody who didn't figure this out back during the Gemini Temple?
>>289803631What a surprise!
>>289803646What do you mean, "fugure out"? It's in the text. I can't recall if it's in the manga, but in the anime they peg that the Pope is a gold saint and he could only be Gemini while they're on the plane to the Sanctuary.
>>289803659So why is Saga a schizo but Kanon isn't? Schizo personality doesn't come with the Gemini saint package?
>>289803646It was hard to not come to such a conclusion, kek.
In the Spic dub, they had given the fake Pope an evil as Hell voice that the Good Saga, which meant his evil side was given a much softer voice
>>289803693Because Kanon is a retcon. Also, mental illness doesn't have to happen to both twins when one has it.
>>289803693Read the Gaidens, especially Saint Seiya Origin. This matter has already been explained in them.
>>289803693Originally, it was probably just DID, but in Episode Zero or Origins, I can't remember which, Kurumada revealed that the Twin Gods' sister put an evil spirit on him when he was a baby
>>289803709Did you catch that it's the same VA as Jabu?
>>289803659and so on of the strongest gold saint has finally appear and a new holy wars to determinate which gold saint is the strongest has begun
>>289803734No, I didn't
>>289803727Episode 0 and Origin add more to the story of Saga and his schizomind, but Origin alone mat do the work in explaining why he became a schizo.
>>289803709It's funny because even after putting on the gold cloth, he still has the evil as fuck voice for a few seconds until he uses his attack and changes to the soft one out of nowhere. Then the episode ends.
>>289803659>>289803769
>>289803659Shakabros dont look
>>289803646You need to be illiterate to not come to that conclusion. Hell, even an illiterate person should be able to piece things up to figure it out from the pictures. You need to be mentally retarded and or schizophrenic.
>>289803568Lore-wise I like to think that on Star Hill she was beaten by Silver Altar
>>289803806Even typical retard would figure it out, imo. Severe brain damage is the only scenario I can think of in which someone would be totally surprised after seeing that reveal.
>>289803771The deep voice was Jabu's VA, I mean. For some reason they switched to another in those last episodes. BTW, that VA is the same as Bulk in Power Rangers or the Big Cheese in Samurai Pizza Cats.
>>289803806>>289803821Maybe someone with dementia.
>>289803826>that VA is the same as Bulk in Power RangersHoly shit, yeah, I realize it now, thinking back to the In Space finale
>>289803794Kneel
>>289803834Yeah, that's also an option.
>>289803581Now imagine Saga with Athena's armor
>>289803850Future arc spoiler in the picrel.Shakabros...
>>289803830Why is Shaka so useless?
>>289803613Necessary undressing
>>289803861Well well, look at that! The fragile princess is held by the golden prince, kek.
>>289803861>ohoho, Ikki, you thought you had meShaka status: Undefeated.
>>289803875>The Master's Chamber...>Right now, Ikki, Pegasus is fighting a desperate battle gainst the Master and time is running out>Seiya... By himself?>Yes, now stop Solid Snaking me and hurry up
>>289803646I mean, wasn't it obvious when it's directly shown the pope was piloting the cloth from afar?
>>289803868That's out of context. Shaka raped Saga and the other two until he forced them to "kill him" because it was part of his master plan.
>>289803793S-Shakabros, this is supposed to be our ultimate occular jutsu, how can he just casually traced us like that, arent we the strongest?
>>289803909True.
>>289803871He wanted to save Ikki.
>>289803875>yes, now go help Seiya because I don't want to tarnish my undefeated title fighting against the master>n-no, that bout against you doesn't count, it's not a tie! I won that one!
Why can't the gold saints do jack shit to help Seiya again? I forgot.
>>289803793So he can just do that? Can he just copy Shaka's strongest move's effects like it's nothing?
>>289803793>>289803922Did he really not watch that fight to know this is a stupid idea?
>>289803931A battle between Gold Saints can take one thousand years and they need all the time they can get
>>289803922>>289803940Yeah, but he cant use it on Shaka and Shaka can use it on him.
>>289803931They are obliged to defend Sanctuary, and therefore, to protect their Houses. Not all of them followed that order, though. If I remember correctly, Aiolia left his post after the fight. Camus walked down to the House of Libra and then returned to his own post, but still he should not have left his House.
>>289801752The anime was nearly outpacing the manga
>>289803693>>289803727I kinda remember the anime version where Kanon created Evil Saga using a more powerful version of the Brainwash Punch
>>289803830>Shiryu and Shaka bailed out by MuIs Shun going to get a new heart next?
>>289803931>>289803962One more thing: the next arc will slightly flesh out this thing. In a lame way, but whatever, more details will be added to the passive nature of defending Sanctuary.
>>289803931There's a seal on the army of Hades that may come undone at any moment, and his soldiers would come to Earth to wage war with the sanctuary. Some of those are pretty strong too.
>>289801752Agreed.
>>289801890A explanation about why Shun went to Greece?
>>289803975That never happened.
>>289803988This too, but that's not the main reason why they couldn't help Seiya in this particular arc. The had to protect their Houses while facing a rebellious group of Saints and, as they were told, fake Athena. Until they acknowledged Athena as a whole, the Grand Pope's order was absolute.
>>289803727Why the fuck would she do that, when Kanon was already evil all the way?
>>289801890>I need to avenge my master!That's a sudden lore drop
>>289803931They're lazy bums that do nothing but sit around on their asses.
>>289804037Wait for the next story arc, kek.
>>289804033Well, June told him off-screen before leaving for the Sanctuary. But yeah.
>>289801923That rose was thrown at a speed around mach 1 and light speed and yet it didn't burn to a crisp.
>>289804033He mentioned it last volume
>>289802066Aphrodite looks bored
>>289804053Exactly.
>>289804001>>289804018>>289804031>>289804042>punch fast>"Heh, the same move won't work twice on a gold sa--">punch faster>winNothing personnel, Master.
>>289801993>>289802004Wait, so Milo's participation was anime only?
>>289804031Alioli-bros, this puny bronze can trace our move
>>289804098Much like him being Hyoga's teacher, Kurumada planned it at some point, but changed his mind too late for the anime cause they had already shown Milo, if I remember correctly
>>289802042I'm sargitarius but i'd vote for Milo.
>>289802254Surprisingly covered for a silver saint.
>>289804103>MORRA SEIYA SEU VIADINHO
>>289804098Likely Aphrodite was a character didn't exist yet, so they used the one gold saint they knew.
>>289804107The Ryuseiken and Lightning Plasma are the exact same thing except Aiolia's faster
>>289802004This implies that she has invisibility.
>>289804127This would have killed Shaka
>>289804111Anime just caught too fast with the manga (and it started pretty early too). Milo as Hyoga's teacher appeared in the magazine release, but the volume release that had this chapter had Camus as Hyoga's master.
>>289804142Cry more, faggot. Shaka made Saga and other two gold saints his bitches, fighting at the same time.
>>289804031This is lighting plasma
>>289802305Shun would have been killed if it wasn't for June
>>289804076>JUST PUNCH FASTER YOU STILL HAVE COSMO IN YOUR BODY YAMATO DAMASHII
>>289804157thats why he died in a staged fight>>289804159
>>289804143How the fuck did you know that without sight, Seiya?
>>289802205Talking about how far his chain can extend must be Shun's favorite catchphrase.
>>289804170>"staged"Cope.Also, he didnt die, idiot. He reached the Underworld alive. Atayashiki. He taught Athena how to do it too.
>>289804171Cosmo echolocation, obviously
>>289804172You think he's overcompensating?
>>289802364>Ikki's waifu looks like Shun.>Shun's master looks like Ikki.What are the odds?
>>289804179>Son, I am disappoint
I'd complain about the argument but at least we haven't reacher /dbs/ tier yet
>>289804166lollmao even
>>289802466There was a bunch of oc dudes when he meet June.
The anime was caught up, so they changed this fight completelyThis caused a plothole in the next arc when Ikki recognized Galaxian Explosion despite Saga never using it in the anime
>>289804182> okay Knights since we are just pretending to be evil lets use only 1% of our Power in this Athena executionSaga you used 2% and killed him
>>289804208I don't like the way you said "yet".
>>289802265So, who got the worst place to train between Ikki and Shun?
>>289804239Are you dense? The whole point of that is that Shaka didn't die. If he had died, he'd be under Hades' power. He played Saga and the others like the little bitches they are.
>>289804228Anime made this fight lame as fuck because of that.>>289804182Arayashiki*. And he attained the Eighth Sense, so he went beyond death. Technically, he was still alive.
>>289804250No matter which one, both are way tougher than what everyone else got.
>>289802312>the only reason you've survived this long is that master Didaros is careful to stop before he kills you!That's...the bare minimum.
>>289804275Yeah, that was a typo.
>>289802700The golden saints analogs replaced them, it is a reason for why Bleach is a sidegrade
>>289804279Unless we count Mei from the LNMostly cause he got DeathMask as a teacher
>>289804270>>289804283>Seiya takes several hours to make it to the Master traveling basically nonstop>Ikki will presumably make it in a couple minutes
>>289804283>Hyoga, when I was little I used to curse my fate, but now I'm grateful>'cause I get to watch you die
>>289804293>The golden saints analogs replaced themJust like TLC
>>289804302I mean, even if the others were the ones to fight, he still got stopped multiple times
>>289802780See the fight against Cerberus, Kurumada wanked Andromeda for some reason
>>289804294Mei could've been an absolute savage.
>>289804293Yes, and it was Kubo's greatest sin. Kurumada never made the golds, as popular as they were like the Gotei Captains, completely replace the Bronze Boys in Poseidon and Hades saga. Also, the bronzes were all pretty much on the same level. Kubo made Ichigo light years stronger than his friends, which is so fucking lame. Good thing he gave Uryu and Orihime (spoilers ahead) some moments to shine in TYBW, but it's too little to late.
>>289802481Aphrodite is self-hating confirmed.
>>289804228>Master, that suicide attack you taught me only works on me
>>289804322Also, Ikki started from later
>>289802592>Same expression nearly copy pasted thrice
>>289802844The only one missing is Camus, otherwise all of the ones killed would be traitors
>>289804322>>289804339I doubt that downtime would add up to even half an hour. Ikki's going through at least 3 hours of palaces.
>>289804259Cant wait for the Hades dump
>>289802861 infant Athena screwed with Cancer
>>289804334Bleachfags usually are hating on Saint Seiya, which is weird and retarded given how Kubo was inspired by Kurumada and Saint Seiya. Let's focus on Saint Seiya in this thread.
>>289804334That's why Kurumada is a legend and Kubo is irrelevant
>>289802672Honestly, i prefer the anime's take of his master being nearly gold level.Like, let at least one silver be somewhat competent, geez.
>>289802879He wasn't as merciful with Cerberus
>>289804166It makes sense with the nonstop faceplants.
>>289804250Ikki, the people Shun trained with weren't complete psychos.>>289804294What is Mei's story? How did he manage to survive training with Deathmask?
>>289804401I feel like Cephas Saint was competent but got outclassed by Aphrodite. The recent Netflix CGI cartoon did show him as capable.
>>289804283>Are we winning?I don't know why I find that amusing
>>289804412Ikki still has time for an ENTER pose with his face obscured. He has his priorities straight.
>>289804373>Otsutsuki invasionKishimoto...
>>289804411>Mitsumasa's legitimate son>Demands to be sent with the 100 orphans>Sent to Siciliy>DeathMask is a surprisingly good teacher>Chickens out of the last test, walking into Mt Etna and retrieving the Coma Berenice Cloth>Doesn't get any more chances due to DeathMask dying>Tries to get the Cloth by himself>Gets possessed by Typhon, who was sealed by the Cloth
Done for todayCome back tomorrow to see if Seiya and Ikki can beat Saga
Is Last Canvas better than the OG?
>>289804449The phoenix cloth has been ASS until this point, but this chestplate? Chef's kiss.
>>289804412ENTER (again)
>>289803364 Originally it was going to be two geminis, they reused it for asgard
>>289804482ROFL
>this talk about Saga vs ShakaOk kids now lets talk about the REAL strongest
How is this stupid manga so fucking good now despite making less sense over time?
>>289803166Absolutely no way Seiya can't see Marin's face here, Kurumada you hack.
>>289804508Does an Athena Exclamation bu himself. And then an even stronger attack IIRCThis little runt is the Shadow the Hedgehog of gold saints.
>>289803619Technically speaking, the closest is actually in Latin America
>>289803265cute tsundere. I wonder if they did a pull if she was more popular than Saori>>289803239>>289803166>>289803150all this teasing...
>>289804533Shadow is not a Mary sue just very edgy
>>289804412ENTER
>>289803334maybe it would have hit more if at least one goldie was there to react to it
>>289804509Soul, heart, cosmos
>>289803581Are there even real demons and monsters in SS?
>>289803613OH SHIT HE'S NAKED!!
>>289803727>I'm in another dimensionthanks viz, i guess
>>289804449This sounds very interesting. Does he get free of possession?Is the story available in English somewhere?>>289804482It depends on who you ask. I have a hard time deciding which is better, both have their strengths and weaknesses.Lost Canvas fleshed out the Gold Saints and a few Specters, but sidelined the main cast.Certain revelations about Tenma's family felt random, like a last ditch effort to make him relevant at the end.Alone's situation and motives were also somewhat controversial.
>>289803673>>289803709>>289803727>MORRA SEIYA SEU VIADINHO!
>>289803875why don't gold saints want to fucking ever work
>>289804621I wouldn't be surprised. A lot of Hades's henchmen have armor based on demons and monsters from various mythology, not just Greek.
>>289804482only if you want to see the gold saints doing cool shit, aside for the it barely has any plot.
>>289801969Ah, the old soporific flowers trick. That takes me back. The Wicked Witch of the West did this with poppies in the Wizard of Oz book.
>>289804612>I-I-I-IS THAT IKKI??!!!>WAAAAAGGHHHHHHHHHH PLEASE FORGIVE ME I KNEEL BEFORE YOU MASTER
>>289804480thanks opstill, laziest armor so far
>>289803830i'm pretty sure in the anime Shaka didn't need Mu's help to also save Ikki.
>>289802004Gut punch does the trick every time.
>>289804030It was a retcon to explain the hole left by the editorial
>>289804674Someone once told me about a gag manga or something where Mu repairs electronics on the side. I don't know if that's true or not.
>>289804661>Is the story available in English somewhere?There's an italian version online, better than jp to machine translate"Saint-seiya it Gigantomachia"
>>289804154His cloth looks slightly different too.
>>289802346What a pale and fair Ethiopian princess
>>289802481Mangaka having a chuckle with those lines.
>>289804334Yes, the formula was only upgraded with KnY
>>289804302My headcanon is that Gemini was screwing with time and space.
>>289804401 we get a competent silver in Hades
>>289804482I liked the anime chara design/color palette
>>289804706It is similar to Heracles
>>289803875>I-Ikki please go fight Saga for us, i'm too scared to fight him on my own
>>289804621I think we saw one monster in a later arc, but apparently they mostly went extinct after the mythological age
>>289803967Hey it's that panel from Jump Ultimate stars!
>>289802844So Shura supposes to be one of the asshold Gold Saint group too? I always thought he was independent.
>>289803717He was planned to be in this arc, but he was postponed because of the editor.Asgard seems to have used the original idea for him
>>289804060I don't remember.
>>289802925The leading cause of Athena's saint's deaths; head trauma.
>>289805012It was in the last few pages
>>289804118Fuck, you beat me to it by like an hour.
>>289804460Is Pisces the only gold cloth that uses the "arms and legs inside the chest" trick?
>>289805036Sagitta?
>>289804283Aw, that's so cute for Ikki.
>>289804322NAH this is bullshit, Shun should be 100% dead by now.
>>289805063Sagittarius has some folding parts but it is more like Libra's weapons.
>>289804480Thanks OP!
>>289805116Sagitta
>>289805176Oh, I meant among the gold cloths, I think Cancer's legs are also hidden inside the chest plate
>>289804403He's even tracing Shura's Excalibur here, truly the strongest.
>>289802672Shun didn't even like just shoot an attack into the wind, he just destroyed his master's cloth as a quick fuck you lmao
>>289802861>What about women, children and Silver Saints?
>>289803771>from all the death matches he foughtSaga... how do I put this...
>>289803931The Gold Saints were the OGs aurafarmers. After an afternoon of getting wrecked by Bronzes, they need time to stand still so they can retake their place in the fandom.
>>289804905That was the last good LC arc. It's all downhill from there. And the hill gets STEEP.
>>289802955>Pre-Graad Foundation flashback>Ikki is already close to looking like a teenager
>>289803568Ah yes, Jaki, the pointy eared Cassios reskin, right?Sanctuary had some odd filler characters, between him and the two HnK extra-like Saints that were June's sidekicks.
>>289804122Yeah, Aphrodite was originally going to be a man named Raiden and manlier and lightning-themed.
>>289804493Yeah, Kurumada said in an interview he couldn't decide if to make Gemini twins or a split personality, but it eventually wound up being "Both".
>>289802642so once Shun leaves, why would they remain on that shitty island? what do they even do when they're not training a new bronze Saint?
>>289801870>>289801890>boy all these panels were real?
>>289803334 AIORIA!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-W4ZS8ORda8
>>289806833June needed training too, you know
>>289802844>>289802861Okay cloth, surely this is enough admittance of wrongdoing to reject Aphrodite as user.
>>289804798Same with June kek
>>289803444>>289803477>>289803499>>289803518I enjoy how schizo the master is.
>>289803927>local schizo confirmed inability to learn from previous fights
>>289804179>the cloth! It's weeping...Better now than never ig
are we at the point Kurumada just stopped giving a fuck yet
>>289804412MY HERO
>>289804480Thank you for posting!

>>289803771Before he saves athena, after that it's fair game to beat the absolute shit out of him.
>>289803830MUUUUUUUUU
>>289803891Nothing will save hil from kneeling like a bitxh beeging for his life.
>>289804168SAGA THE STRONGEST
>>289806833Do you think Camus stayed in Siberia when Hyoga left?
>>289809801Saga status: DEFEATED
>>289805176The guy that kickstarted the GREATEST Shonen arc ever madeAnd he was in the manga for like 7 pages
>>289809979Saga Killed himself so he never lost
Gemini is strongest gold knight!
>>289809424It did what now?
>>289806205Yes, it explains a lot about Saga's behavior and was teased a bit here and there.
>>289804159But a lot less cool
>>289804829If only the main party of KnY was likable
>>289802282Thanks Zeus this rundown shack has central heating, otherwise we would freeze
>>289805176>stronger than a god
>>289804412>>289804449>Phoenix vs GeminiIkkibros, we got this. Our boy is fresh and healthy while Saga is having a schizo episode. /ourguy/ Ikki is going to give him a hell of a fight!
>>289804334Kurumada is a slacker; drawing the Gold Saints is torture for him.
>>289804400>Kurumada is a legend and Kubowith people who have no money.
>>289805176The existence of Sagitta Cloth implies the existence of a Rius Cloth.
>>289803631>>289803646>>289803673It's pretty obvious to the reader gemini was the master, but i don't get why is such a shock for SeiyaThe master isn't supposed to be a gold knight? I thought it was a "first among equals" thing
>>289812193Not quite, the Pope is chosen from the Gold Saints, at least every Pope we've seen in the franchise has been, but there are still twelve Gold Saints
>>289804719No, he did. I remember the scene well because it is one of my favourites.In both the anime and the manga, Shaka admits that he is strong enough to return on his own, but to bring Ikki with him, he needs Mu's help.
>>289805176GODSLAYER Sagitta for you. Also I like the cloth designs for other characters are actually revealed here.
>>289804168Too strong... to win?
>>289803717I meant it as in more that Gemini saints would be fated to have DID because of cosmic fate or something, but I already read the actual explanation in the other posts.
>>289813427The ultimate power.
>>289807420A theory says that Aphrodite is still fighting according to his own sense of justice, so it's possibile that the cloth choose to serve him.Deathmask screwed big time because was totally evil and messing with shiryu and shunrei had nothing to do with his personal sense of justice.That would make sense, imho: saints may have differents moral codes and they act according to them and cloths works when their saints fight for (their) justice.
>>289803364I think it's just Kurumada obeying the "big bad gets a full page once unmasked" trope but because he suffers so much from sameface syndrome it comes across as comical.
>>289805176Unironically one of the most successful Saints. He didn't fear Athena's divine aura. He just proceeded with executing orders.
>>289801743>>289801752Melancholic. He was the richiest guy in Japan at that time.
>>289816513Well, a silver saint had to be competent
>>289807420>>289816147Cancer was full sadistic, Aphrodite was nonchalant. and the 12 was a test of strength, so Pisces was kind in the right
Virgo is strongest gold knight!
I like tenkai-hen so far
One more for the road.
>>289811730Yeah, the guy who spent 20 years drawing non-stop and continue drawing with a broken hand is a slacker
