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

It'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.

They 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.

This 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.

Yes, 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.

It 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.

Ah 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.
>>
>>289804122
Yeah, Aphrodite was originally going to be a man named Raiden and manlier and lightning-themed.
>>
>>289804493
Yeah, 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".
>>
>>289802642
so 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?

June needed training too, you know
>>
>>289802844
>>289802861
Okay cloth, surely this is enough admittance of wrongdoing to reject Aphrodite as user.

I enjoy how schizo the master is.

Better now than never ig

Before he saves athena, after that it's fair game to beat the absolute shit out of him.

MUUUUUUUUU

SAGA THE STRONGEST
>>
>>289806833
Do you think Camus stayed in Siberia when Hyoga left?
>>
>>289809801
Saga status: DEFEATED
>>
>>289805176
The guy that kickstarted the GREATEST Shonen arc ever made

And he was in the manga for like 7 pages
>>
>>289809979
Saga Killed himself so he never lost
>>
Gemini is strongest gold knight!
>>
>>289809424
It did what now?
>>
>>289806205
Yes, it explains a lot about Saga's behavior and was teased a bit here and there.
>>
>>289804159
But a lot less cool
>>
>>289804829
If only the main party of KnY was likable
>>
>>289802282
Thanks Zeus this rundown shack has central heating, otherwise we would freeze

>Phoenix vs Gemini
Ikkibros, 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!
>>
>>289804334
Kurumada is a slacker; drawing the Gold Saints is torture for him.
>>
>>289804400
>Kurumada is a legend and Kubo
with people who have no money.

>>289805176
The existence of Sagitta Cloth implies the existence of a Rius Cloth.

It's pretty obvious to the reader gemini was the master, but i don't get why is such a shock for Seiya

The master isn't supposed to be a gold knight? I thought it was a "first among equals" thing
>>
>>289812193
Not 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
>>
>>289804719
No, 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.
>>
>>289805176
GODSLAYER Sagitta for you. Also I like the cloth designs for other characters are actually revealed here.
>>
>>289804168
Too strong... to win?
>>
>>289803717
I 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.
>>
>>289813427
The ultimate power.
>>
>>289807420
A 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.
>>
>>289803364
I 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.
>>
>>289805176
Unironically one of the most successful Saints. He didn't fear Athena's divine aura. He just proceeded with executing orders.
>>
>>289801743
>>289801752
Melancholic. He was the richiest guy in Japan at that time.
>>
>>289816513
Well, a silver saint had to be competent
>>
>>289807420
>>289816147
Cancer 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.
>>
>>289811730
Yeah, the guy who spent 20 years drawing non-stop and continue drawing with a broken hand is a slacker
>>
never seen it desu
>>
>>289822809
and a fag too
