>>289984586>Shiryu nakedAre you fucking serious lmao
>>289984522This isn't going to drag like Poseidon, is it?
>>289984798Our... Who the fuck are those guys?
>>289976901It's like a magic eye book. At a certain point something clicks in your brain and it's beautiful.
>>289984753How long after the previous arc iis this one taking place?
>>289984859Pretty much immediately.
>>289984723Sonce Athena came back before the seal was broken, couldn't she just put a new one in place beforehand?
>>289984917>What business do you have with me?What do you THINK
>>289984697>1000Km west of RozanWhere would that put the tower?
>>289984996>This ominous presence is standing near guard corpses, I should just ask him what his deal is (we've been expecting an attack for days btw)Guys, please...
>>289985019I'm not sure why, but something about that first panel feels like a Junji Ito reveal
how much time had it been since the 12 gold saits to this point of the story?
>>289985110OUR HERO
>>289985181>Breach the barrierThere's a barrier?
>>289985340>Make the Pisces and Cancer Saints jobbers >Then make them turncoats to twist the knifeWhat was Kurumada's problem with these two signs?
>>289985468Cancerbros...
>>289985522Should he be saying that when there's a good chance Shiryu will fight and die in the coming war?
>>289985340I thought Aphrodite was "might makes right." Shouldn't he kneel before his bronze superiors?
>>289985110Everyone calm the FUCK down!Jabu is here.
>>289985796>just tie a bandana to your thigh90s fashion is weird.
>Deathmask got fucked up by a clothless Seiyai feel bad for cancerfags worse than Pisces
>>289984667>108 starsare we going suikoden?
>>289985796ENTER
I don't think we've gotten all 108 Specters even with all the spin-offs[
>>289984961>>289984697>West, 1000 km
>>289986001HOW THE FUCK IS HE ABLE TO TRAVEL TO THE SACTUARY SO FUCKING FAST?
>>289984867>All knights scattered around the world have been summonedNew silvers?
>>289984887>Stone bed
>>289984779>>289984798>>289984824I wish we had more casual moments like this to humanise the cast. It's minor, but I appreciate it. You have to know what you're protecting after all.
>>289986054You can tell Mu is waiting for any excuse to label someone a traitor and kill them. The idea of killing saints gets him rock hard.
>>289984697The final arc starts.
>>289986094>Contestare tu pregunta con esto: Es inutil llorar por la leche derramada ¿entiendes?
>>289985019>Hello, I'm Kikaider
>>289985889Actually it's a referecend to The Water Margin, Kurumada's favorite novel
>>289985019Kurumada is genuinely a great artist, why does he insist on all the characters looking so archaic? He hides his power level way too much.
>>289985313>PTOLEMY SILVER SAGITTAPtolemybros...
>>289986121Ah, yesThe classic Chinese story that isn't Journey to the West or Romance of the Three Kingdoms
>>289986038That Nori-P magazine cover got changed in Final Edition go something that doesn't point on a real life person
>>289986115That cloth is looking significantly better than when Poseidon shattered to bits.
>>289985215Six months? Mostly during the coma
>>289985110OUR HERO IS BACK, JABUBROS!>>289986128That vintage art style is a huge part of the charm.
>>289985796HERO
>>289986161Cloths are alive so they can heal by themselves up to a point>But the Pegasus and Dragon Cloths were less damaged when they died in the Galaxian WarsShut up
>>289985313>only silver graves
Moreso than Sanctuary this is the true humiliation ritual for the Deathmask/Aphrodite duo
>>289986176YEAAAAHHHHHloved that technique
>>289985313>All the graves have "Random name + Silver" except SagittaHe was really special
>>289986203Ehh, not really since they lose to the guy who destroys the other gold saints as well, because of thay force field bs.
>>289986114>final
>>289986192Partially but I've no doubt he could do much better paneling if he wanted as well.
The saints were already capable of combatting the gold saints when they tried really hard and they get stronger with each battle and even had a cloth upgrade after Sanctuary, it shouldn't be a surprise they can fight gold saints just fine now.
>>289986299I believe it is the final one, the final version of the original story.>>289986303Well yes, that's true and I agree.
>>289986019They move at the speed of sound
Mu is such a piece of shit bureocrat spends more times threating his allies than fighting enemies
>>289985500Powerscale updateAries Mu > Cancer, Pisces
>>289986038>Nori-PIs Shun a wota?
>>289985796>Cancer defeated by clothless Seiya
>>289985952>so indoctrinated Roshi can let him go and he'll still try to kill himself
>>289986365It would take several hours to travel going at the speed of sound from that distance.
>>289986121also 108 is a Buddhist number representing earthly sins/desires/sufferings
>>289986513I get it, you don't have balls
Gotta go have dinner
Mu? A good friend.
>>289985917>SpoilerSome Spectre stars even have duplicates between Kurumada sequels and spin-offs
>>289986087personally i still think they got over the heinous shit that nobu put them through and their grudge against sienna way too quickly but the author is clearly more interested in keeping the plot moving than sorting out the characters motivations thoroughly
>>289986001Two out of three tried to kill you. Maybe your mother tried too.
>>289984522hope yall guys ready to read what its consider the peak of OG saint seiya hades sanctuary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sr-arGycW7g
>>289986689I agreeHades Part 1 > Twelve houses > The rest
>>289986689But it wasn't part of my childhood so I don't feel nostalgic.
>>289986343Eeeehh Bronzes must still reach the seventh sense after an emotional peak, while Golds are a full seventh.
>>289985213>Mu is KNEELINGbros...
>>289986689>>289986738Count me in. I think the same.
>>289986352Oh c'mon, it wasn't even an attack
>>289986488>Are you sure?>Sure>*Stares*
>>289986532Go die in a hole, Roshi.
>>289985019I wonder what was the specters original deal monsters, actual ghost or proto sukuna >>289986128He actually has a very good monster designer, you can see it in Bt'x and this arc's armors
>>289986115>AIEE!!Deathjob...
>>289986158>>289986410Who is Nori-P?
Why are Cancer and Pisces so fucking pathetic? Can they even beat Aldebaran?
>>289986689>Kiki at the orphanage?>Seika is his baby sister yet he wonders if Marin is her???????
>>289987235Noriko Sakai. A Japanese singer that Kurumada liked a lot (I have no ideas if he still listens to her). One of her songs kind of healed lack of motivation to continue the story that Kurumada had after the Poseidon arc.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noriko_Sakai
>>289986597Specters in Lost Canvas/ Next Dimension are the previous incarnations of the ones we see here.Specters in Dark Wing have the same Surplices but aren't necessarily reincarnations.
>>289987301Jobbers gonna eat dirt and job.
>>289986689why the brazillian ops mog so hard?
>>289987309And in Saint Mariya, they work like in Lost Canvas
>>289987339Spooky trio.
>>289987339Oh my GodIt's Super Phoenix's team
>>289986621If I recall correctly, the anime dropped the 'Bronzes are Old Man Kido's abandoned children' plot, they were just orphans his foundation 'saved' there.SS isn't the only manga of its time or after it to have characters quickly get over heinous things they should have had more issues with.
>>289987309 Dark Wing is a sukuna situation, but they are too weakened to fully take hold over their hosts
>>289986689Hades is not OG, it's 2000s ffs.Also, Poseidon arc is better.
>>289987107Specters are generally monsters, ghosts,demons, gods and mythical beasts from various mythology and literature.
>>289987374Kurumada really can't go 1 arc without bringing back Saga.
>>289987393And so, a Spic meme about Aquarius was born
>>289987408From the united kingdom
>>289987273Anime popularity, it is also theorized that one of Kurumada's ex was a cancer.
>>289987415Shura's Spanish, tho.
>>289987393ENTER
>>289987301Most pathetic jobbing possible, hence my earlier remark that this is the true humiliation ritual.
>>289987395I meant the specters themselves originally being demons and monsters.It is noticeable that they are less human than mariners and saints, this detail was lost in the non-kurumada's design, that are basically black goldies.
>>289987408Mu would've looked nice as a woman.
>>289987408But Excalibur is in Shiryu's arm?
>>289987486Anon, Excalibur is just an attack. They can both do it. It wouldve been badass if he had shouted "Singing sword," though.
>>289987439It is a subtle detail how demonic their cloths are now, Shura has eyes on his chest.
>>289987520Yeah, Aphrodite and Deathmask didn't even get this.
>>289987535Ariesbros... Don't look.
>>289987542Kurumada must've seen this after the fact because later in Next Dimension he gave us Cancer Deathtoll, the greatest and most badass saint of all time.
>>289987393ENTERDARK TRIO
>>289987309I was talking about two different armors monsters on the same star.For example, Dark Wing takes a free star (Earthly Star of the Dog) and associates Laelaps with it. Later, Kurumada in the new Tenkai manga creates his own version of the star and associates it with Orthros.
>>289987425Damn he looks even more girly here.
>>289987476T. Aldebaran
>>289987662Why even bother drawing the helmet I'll never know. Kurumada is increasingly reticent to have characters wear them.
>>289987501Shura's soul literally entered him.
>>289987374Paul, the strongest Gold
>>289987662His armor is more fitting than Mu's
>>289987708Hot.
>>289987374Not even Hades himself could get Paul to come back from the dead. A true saint till the end.
>>289987486He has four Excaliburs, arms and legs
>>289987748He slashed with the arm he gave to Shiryu.
>>289987425Mu was the true Gold twink all along
>>289987532I'm the anon who posts the armor pics, at the end of the dump I'll send a comparison
This is already mogging the shit out of Poseidon.
Meanwhile, at the Legion of Doom
>>289987761Kurumada is weird, he has a twink obsession but refuses to use actual mythological twinks.
>>289987790Is there any reason for they having exactly 12 hours for their task or Hades wanted someone to turn the clock on for style?
>>289987662ENTER EL GRANDE PADRE
>>289987834Yes, it's because it's when the sun rises.
>>289987865ENTER
>>289987865*Note: Not the Mythological Rhadamantys
>>289987915Kurumada REALLY hates Cancer and Pisces.
>>289987621I haven't reached the part where that Specter in Dark Wing showed up. Its hard to find in english
>>289987977Who?
>>289987977Kurumada has never seen a woman, has he.
>>289987977Wide.
>>289987977testament guilty gear, what are you doing here?
>>289987884I had forgot about this exact scene. I'd be ashamed to share my sign with these two
>>289987744this finally explains how Roshi and Mu were the only ones who doubted Pope (Saga) back in Sanctuary. They knew the real Pope on a personal levelcould have done more to expose Saga tho, you two lazy fucks
>>289985236>>289985252What was even the point of this? He knew damn well his authority didn't supersede Athena's.
>>289988018Retard question, but do the revived Gold Knights count as part of the 108? Since they have their cloths but darker and not original ones.
>>289988084They do not.
>>289984522good lord , wtf its this shit?
>>289988097>retcon his death just to kill him againBruh.>>289988101Alright. Thanks.
>>289988097Clearly, Mu did not notice he has the power to pop back into existence whenever.
>>289988097Man it must be bad not being a gemini or virgo
>>289988097>He's deadAgain?
>>289988131>>289988142>>289988161>That's right, it was me! some random with a monstrous helmet!!!
>>289987778>work with Aioria and the othersAliolibros our guy is DEPENDABLE, the other golds didn't even get named>>289988097Biggest humiliation ritual of thiss arc? This or Cancer&Pisces?
>>289988227Cancer & Pisces, who "died" again like bitches. Aldebaran at least achieved a delayed mutual kill.
>>289988190I wonder if Kurumada had plans for a civil war between Rhadamantys and Pandora but decided not to go in that direction.
>>289988227>This or Cancer&Pisces?None, you will learn later
>>289986128I mean it's an old manga...
>>289987799Yes, you can see it here too >>289987621Kurumada's specters are monstrous in armor and/or in themselves.Some specters even have inhuman clawed feet.
>>289987653>enough of this mystery nigga shit
>>289987865Enter the token fag >>289987899>Note: Not the Mythological RhadamantysThis part is really confusing.
who is Rhadamantys?
>>289988018 Poor Pandora, she was deceived that much
>>289988336LOL, Mu has a sense of humor in the middle of a zombie uprising and Specter invasion.
>>289984899I don't think it works like that, probably it'd end like Canon grabbing the trident.
>>289988142>>289988161He should have keep the mask down.
>>289988358This makes even less sense than usual.
>>289988097exit
>>289988435aldebaran secretly knew the hokuto shinkenunfortunately it wasn't enough to beat the stink-so-bad-it-instantly-kills-you man without dying as well
>>289988432Fish
>>289988374In mythology, he is one of the 3 judges of hades, the other 2 are Aiacos, and Minos of the minotaur infamy
>>289986247Yeah he was in the Eris movie.
>>289988435Aldebaran is one of those samurai that kill you, but the cut only appears after a conversation.Unfortunately, his enemy power was stinking too much.
>>289987865The best Surplice design
>>289985385It's funny how later Seiya laments that even them joined Shion when they were pretty much hated by everybody else.
>>289986377To the surprise of nobody ever.
>>289987294Seika is Seiya's big sister
>>289988227Cancer and Pisces>>289988286If that was actually true, he wouldn't make them seem so pathetic.
>>289988557>Originally both twins were planned to be in sanctuary.I wonder who was going to be the evil one.
>>289988557>Who planted the seed of that evil within me?Ker
>>289985548There's something about how Shiryu looks in the manga that always bothered me.
>>289988605Nvm I thought the picture was of Seiya but it was Ikki holding Shun.
>>289988336Omae wa mou shindeiru
>>289988336>>289988358https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpoemE-1ArEI kinda like it in the anime, honestly. RIP Aldebaran, you never had a chance to show off.
>>289988076Asians worship their masters. It's confucianism. See any wuxia flick
>>289987452During Sanctuary, he was just blasting unnamed cold blasts
>>289988678It was working until now.
>>289985917I don't think we ever had 88 saints between all spin-offs etc.
>>289988243I don't think so but this rivalry made Rhadamantys/Pandora into one of the most popular Saint Seiya's het pairings. Fics exploded after the OVAs were released
>>289986673>inbefore she abandoned him in hopes he'd die
>>289988678>>289988706This implies that Aldebaran wasn't the only one who pulled a turtle
>>289988321To be fair, non-human races are canon in the SS universe. It's just that humans expanded and took over the world. For example, the first Sagittarius gold saint was a centaur
>>289988678ALDEBARAN NO WAZA DA!
>>289988706>Wait, it's not Taurus turtle trick
>>289988746When was that revealed?
>>289986151>"TIME TO WORK OUT MY FRUSTRATIONS!"Seiya did a funny
>>289988763Next Dimension
>>289988715Teshirogi obviously wrote many of them.
>>289988879>I have come to help!>SO I WILL KILL YOUWhy are Gold saints like this?
>>289986411you know a character is top-tier strong when their attacks are named after cool shit like stars and galaxies instead of animals
>>289988851Teshirogi's OTPs were Sasha/Sysiphus, Alone/Tenma and Rhadamanthys/Pandora
>>289988894Wuxia autism
>>289987846Yeah, this series had both "EL HERMANO" and that.
>>289988068Not many people knew about Saga, to the point some people didn't even know Kanon even existed, some knew him but never suspected.
>>289988938No wonder why Saint Seiya is so popular in Latin America
>>289987805I mean, if what he says is true Shion would last half a day.
>>289988953People also don't take in consideration that Saga was a cool Pope most of the time and like he has a genuinely good side, other gold saints couldn't feel evil from his cosmos. The anime ruined it by showing the Pope was an evil tyrant since the start and don't make me start with the Arles being the Pope's brother
>>289988983LARGA VIDA AL MAESTRO DEL MAL
>>289987301fwark, a 1-hit kill on two former gold saints (jobbers, but still gold jobbers nonetheless)as an aries, I'll always thank Kurumada for making Mu so fucking cool. not to mention Shion
>>289989010True man's world
>>289988894to be fair, canon deserved it for being a traitorous bitch
Done for todayCome back tomorrow to see who's in the Cancer Temple
>>289989010To be fair that was something said in an "imaginary situation" not said for real.
>>289987977>black hair saorihe was really rushing there
>>289985375Overall surplices are sharper compared to their gold versions, and some parts are pretty different like new shoulders, chest and belt
>>289988964It is popular in non-anglo countries in general, in America, its niche was taken by samurai troopers
>>289988258>he just farted really bad
>>289985375
https://youtu.be/wK5um2aua9Q?is=1N9CQ5sIqlEIALpODespite all its problems this manga has so much soul that almost nothing comes close
>>289988557
>>289989086Kurumada can't draw humans, especially women.
>>289988097might as well use taurus cloth as a scarecrow
>>289987662
>>289989086Early hades was reverse sanctuary
>>289987393
>>289989069Kurumada likes to explore moral issues like redemption and looking for a purpose in life
>>289987425
>>289988524Talking about, Radamanthys is based on the southern cross saint
>>289987439
>>289989059Rad as fuck.
>>289987662THE STRONGEST
>>289987865>>289989059
>>289988142
>>289985194>>289985213>>289985236I really like this scene
>>289988814Twin pride?
>>289989090They are also more organic looking as seem here >>289989070
>>289988177
>>289989105Aphrodite is so manly
>>289989176Rhadamanthys's "actor" (star system) has a based career. He "played" Metal Face in B't X, Kaiser in ND and recently Apollo in Tenkaihen
>>289988557>smiling_friends_point_at_screen.gif
>>289989176I always liked how there's actually a "Shield" constellation.
>>289989253I bet Oscar's clit is bigger than Aphrodite's dick
Index>>289989090 Cancer>>289989105 Pisces>>289989132 Aries>>289989145 Gemini>>289989168 Capricorn>>289989183 Aquarius>>289989210 Wyvern>>289989226 Niobe>>289989248 Majestic Frog
>>289984887Kek, sleeping on a slab of stone. Not even ancient Greeks are doing that.
>>289986200Ah yes, the Yomotsu-Hirasaka, the famed entrance to the Greek underworld.
>>289989263 The last two were more Aioria like
>>289984917Mystery nig- nevermind, he immediately told her his name.
>>289989303Nah, they're Rhada. Aioria is prettier
>>289988557>>289989267>how can YOU possibly wear the gemini gold cloth?>you know who i'm talking to
>>289985019It's Twoface! Call Batman! Or the closest thing to a bat saint!
>>289985059To be fair, Hydra tried attacking him.
>>289989301And the Buddhist teachings of Virgo.
>RhadamantysHeh what a cuck
>>289989396Not canon
>>289987761>When humans are at their strongest>18Kurumada...
>>289984867>Even stronger than Poseidon...but Hades is supposed to be weaker.
>>289989396Rada literally won though?
>>289985340>have you risen as phantoms because you can't rest?Damn it, you are expecting an attack from Hades! At least make it one of the Silver or Bronze saying that instead of a fucking Gold!
>>289989409More than ND
>>289989423he likes them legally young
>>289989325They are older and more stern looking. >>289989396Anon... it is even a plot point in spin-ofs that his eromenos is totally loyal to him
>>289985468KWAB
>>289985110ENTERThe 6th strongest Bronze!
>>289989425He is described as the second Zeus in mythological texts
>>289988983>>289989010That shit was so over the top and violent I always laugh at this part (short alert!):https://www.youtube.com/shorts/BGgv0O3h6KE
>>289985132YOOOOOO did his cloth get an upgrade?
>>289985110A funny bit, is that his cloth received an upgrade
>>289988030Of course Bastard wouldn't be the only manga Daisuke traced.
>>289986094Seiya just sending Cancer flying like that is just a comedy bit from a gag manga.
>>289985213Kiki would not have done this btw.
>>289986689Never liked this opening. Too melancholic even for saint seiya. I preffer this onehttps://youtu.be/Lrk8oyXbKpc?si=ugG8nWaf-5i5f7lv
>>289985689Probably got whipped by Hades in the Underworld.
>>289988119At least he didn't job to a Marine-shitter this time.
>>289985689The anime greatly influenced the manga, see Shura being in the cool guys table
>>289985313Geez, Seiya and Co, really culled the silver population.
>>289989090>>289989145>>289989168>>289989183>>289989210These designs must've been catnip to spic edgelord kids back in the day.
>>289986121I'm not sure if you're fucking around, but Suikoden is Water Margin.
>>289989611Not really, spics are mainly anime only, and when the hades ovas happened, Naruto was already dominating the edgelord market with the sharingan.

>>289987865They really dont make good Subbosses like him anymore
>>289985899>Hades' first goal is to destroy Sanctuary and TAKE ATHENA'S HEAD!!>so that's why you Gold Knights couldn't leave Sanctuary when we fought PoseidonHuh? But Poseidon got Athena in a bind... I swear these fucking lazy bums are scared of Poseidon's Generals after Sorrento managed to hold Aldebaran back.
>>289985468AIIEEEmask
>>289985567Bro is talking like a nintendo lawyer.
>>289986054What is it with Mu and killing his fellow Knights? He was like this too with Aioria.
>>289985612Despite his name reminding you of cows, Mu acts more like a domesticated Dog.
>>289985567>I'll hit you with a DMCA
>>289986094Maybe I should mess around in the WSJ threads.
>>289985899>Hades goal is to take Athena's head>Which is why we can't have our strongest soldiers protect herWhy is he so retarded?
>>289986102You can tell Mu and Roshi are best friends.
>>289989863mandatory "villain underestimating the good guys" plot
>>289986001Isaac really should've lived man.
>>289986018Man, i just realized that Shun and Ikki don't have a dedicated spot to rest since their training Islands were so fucking shit.
>>289989822Well he is the sheep after all.>>289989864To be fair to Roshi his heat barely beat, meaning that his brain doesn't receive enough oxygen
>>289988903>Milo>top tierLol. Lmao even.
>>289986488Can't he check that real quick if he's really Hades?
>>289986513Kek.
>>289985325Now that I think about it, Shura became stardust
>>289986115How is his cloth still fully connected yet cracked?Did Mu intentionally fixed it wrong?
>>289987301OHKO'd in a 1v2, embarrassing.
>>289986254What? DeathMask was attacking Seiya, what was he supposed to do? Let Cancer kill him?
>>289985405>>289985425 Was this the moment he told Mu everything
>>289989435Opposite. ND is the author's work. LC is fan fiction.
>>289990004Ooohh yeah it is
As far as I can tell>Saga tierSaga(because he is author's pet)>God tierShaka and Aiolos>Top tier mu, Aiolia, Dohku>Average tierMilo, shura, Camus>Trash tierAphrodite, deathmask, aldebaran
>>289985880Hey, June is there
>>289988718If he can do this why doesn't he just shoot Athena?
>>28998756212 hours? Did Sagitta managed to shoot a gold arrow on this guy's chest before he died?
>>289990037Your tiers are shit and any gold saint can kill another based on circumstances.
>>289987778Oh, I kinda like this. There's time limit for the enemy instead of the usual.
>>289990080Mu obliterated two former knights like if they were children
>>289990069He is pulling a Shun
>>289987562Oh, reverse 12 temples?
>>289989059Sick armor.
>>289990080hell no. not all gold saints are built the same. you have to at least put them in 3 categories:>Kurumada wants you to consider these guys to be strong as fuckSaga, Shaka, Aiolos, Dohko>Kurumada wants you to consider these guys to be alrightMu, Aiolia, Camus, Milo, Shura>Kurumada wants you to consider these guys to be jokesAldebaran, Aphrodite, Deathmask
>>289987977Not Demeter? Or is Pandora just Hades' servant?
>>289984828>2 of the ''NOT ACTUALLY OUR PROTAGONIST'' set of saints
>>289990181>mu>no strong as fuck>aldebaran>jokes????
>>289988097Fucking offscreened. He deserves better, being the only Gold to defend Athena the second time Poseidon tried kidnapping her.
>>289987865This motherfucker was a pain in the ass to fight in the PS2 game.
>>289987287 it seems that Pisces and Cancer weren't on the plan, I wonder if the final edition will make more sense of things
>>289987977I have a sudden need to do things to a controller that would eventually break it.
>>289990241Mu is my favorite, but I think the other ones are a step above. I almost put him on the first tierand Aldebaran's record at this point is what, 0-3? he's shows up just to lose fights
>>289988358Of course Aldebaran is a master of Hokuto Shinken.
>>289988243Who knows? But the faction does feel like it lends itself to it. Saints are always in-fighting but they functionally only have 12 dudes and whoever the protags are. Marines are a joke. Meanwhile, Specters have over 100 dudes (even if like half never appear) under 3 Judges and Pandora, so it feels easier to create factions.>>289987621Dark Wing making cute girl Specters is one of the greatest contributions to the franchise.
>>289989957He didn't fix it after Poseidon, I think Deathmask even joked about that in the anime.
>>289988018Bro is pussy whipped.
>>289990037>Saga is Saga tierAre you sure?
>>2899902902 of those 3 were something related to one of his senses and unblockable
>>289990037Aiolia and Milo are in the same tier, which is below everybody else except Aldebaran, Aphrodite and Deathmask. Saga and Shaka are on top easily.
>>289988097Alright stop playing Aldebaran, i know you aren't dead...Aldebaran?
>>289988678>>289988706KEK, Aldebaran's turtle trick is an actual move amongst the Golds.
>>289988927He's just a masochist.
>>289988358Taurus seem kinda cracked if he can do all the bullshit Kurumada has come up so far.
>>289989815He was kinda of a dick.........................and they were all zealots at the end of the day to the pope, regardless of who was under the rope......they were idiots.
>>289986621>DiC NamesFUCK OFF.
>>289989070Thanks.
>>289990198She is just a servant, basically the specters pope
It is surprising how fast this thread went >>289990475The translation is using them.
>>289989070Thanks OP!
>>289990660Definitely has a more hype beginning than Poseidon with the Goldies doing SOMETHING at last. Seiya appeared just to get teleported by Mu.
>>289986621The manga had the idea of Saori and teh Bronzes being at odds with each other before they went to fight the sanctuary, but still having it to protect her begrudjingly just cause it was the right thing, also Saori was kinda selfish and self important to some extent too because she believed in the Sanctuary at first and her grandpa too, i guess after learning the corruption that happened under Saga de Geminis she mellowed down and was a bit less antaoginistic to the saints in the manga, Seiya only convinced the others to joined her to fight after his encounter with Aiolia and Saori telling him, she knows he hater her (beause of the abuse by her old man and her as well when they were kids, and what happen to Ikki and the others who didnt came back), but she said a story about how Mitsumasa did what he did as an order from god, and had to sacrifice his children knowing they will hate him for.........The anime dop that early on during and after the Ikki arc and instead have Saori communicate with the spirit of Mitsumasa telling her not hate the boys and instead making them trust her and wanna help her, by not forgeting ''the kindess of a woman'', thus abandoning the plot form the manga when they have uneassy allience and instead Saori showing gratitude towards the bronze saints early on, motivating them, specially how they change for the better when Seiya has to protect Saori from Jamian de Cuervo.https://files.catbox.moe/fbqrtz.webm>>289989559Yeah the fujo shit started to crawl badly there, but that other one is just generic 2000s shit, Saint Seiya songs without Nobuo Yamada its like Dragon Ball theme songs without Hironubu Kageyama, not worth it.
>>289984887Athena must have the worst fucking back pain.
>>289984667it is time
>>289985110JABUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
>>289989684plus the new myth cloths that were coming both from japan and LatAm (the latter due to the re-airing of the old anime in CN) were of lesser quality.
>>289989684>>289991395Sucks to hear. Early Sharingan was pretty dope, but nothing can beat good old fashioned edgy armor.
>>289990978>but that other one is just generic 2000s shit2000s shit is pretty soulful, so I don't mind too much, but Pegasus Fantasy and Soldier Dream were just so iconic and emblematic of the 80s that they're impossible to really top.
>>289989168How did Mu even mix these two up at first
>>289988227cancer pisces.Taurus just jobbed to hype up the enemy but he still looked cool even in death.Cancer and Pisces were made to look pathetic and cowardly and begging and crawling. That's an actual humiliation ritual
