>>290083689It's Seiya and Shun together again! Classic side adventure.
>>290083843>Abandon all hope ye who thinks Saga is the strongest
>>290083843Reminds me of that underwater cave.
>>290083992You're in the Underworld, SeiyaWho the fuck do you think they are?
>>290084058*Not the mythological Charon
>>290084281How do you even test that revolutoon speed, Charon? Also, where's the sonic boom from all these high-speed attacks, I wonder.
>>290084357You’ve been wearing that the whole time, Shun?
>>290084357No, Shun! Not your star-shaped necklace. It's such a core part of your character, man!
Did the Netflix show show the Yours Ever necklace at any point?
>>290084357Finally that shit became relevant
>>290084606How many are we on? 10?
>>290084606>using the same attack against Seiya doesn't work>however every time Seiya himself uses the same attack it becomes more effectiveMC bullshit.
>>290084606It's a defensive move, Seiya, he never attacked-->I'm fucking drowning, okay?! Gimme a break!
>>290084665The thing is that the RyuSeiKen is a ridiculously simple attackIt's just punching a lot very fast and Seiya keeps managing to make it go fasterAlso, "Same technique doesn't work twice" only applies to Saints, not Mariners or Specters
>>290084665Well, Seiya's attack is just punching a lot and fast, so there's nothing to figure out. The spirit of the saying applies to attacks that have some kind of obfuscation or trick.
>>290084749>"Now we'll both die", said the Frog>And the Scorpion answered "It is simply my nature"
>>290083649For some reason, seeing a mundane name like René among the exotic ones like Orpheus and Charon made me chuckle.
>>290084863It's actually Lune
>>290084058The jester motif is an interesting choice.
>>290084988>this high-noon quickdraw-coded page
Gonna be back after dinner
>>290084606Seiya! He said the thing!
>>290085023>>290085053The end of this fight was incredibly satisfying.
>>290084382>>290084385At least the CG show introduced it way before Hades
>>290083689Oh no! Seiya and Shun will have to deal with the Pharaoh's curse!
>>290085053He lives!
>>290083689I love this chrome shading whenever I see it, it's beautiful. I wonder how they pull it off.
>>290083773>just assumes he isn't dead
>>290084749What an asshole.
>>290083689Ah yes, my favorite characters, Seiya, Shun and Ra.
>>290085553Having hope is a good thing where they're going.
>>290085633>MartianNo, those are the Omega villains
>>290085592BRAAAAAPPPPP
>>290084281>Seiya isn't even 18 times stronger than the beginning of the manga without a near-death cosmo boostpathetic
>>290085669I think I remember this but I never watched Hades.
>>290083867Why are they calling it hell rather than "Hades" or "underworld"?
>>290085669>literally BRAAPmy sides
>>290085669Classic Seiya.
>>290083867Santa Monica TRACED this
>>290085727The gate from Dante's Inferno made them think o it
>>290085746>BalronCome on, VIZ
>>290085795Seiya's been surprisingly goofy in this chapter
>>290085864RIP, dude did not deserve this.
>>290084281seems like in hell they take physics too seriously
>>290085911Sins: farted
>>290085864kek the fucking whiplash from Seiya farting.
>>290085925Miho spotted
>>290085925>That girlMihosisters...
>>290084281Pre sanctuary Shiryu would one shit this bozo.
>>290084498>protects your body with armor>still bleeds from a single hit
>>290085925>made Miho cryguilty! 10000 years hard labor!
>>290085947Please sir it was to save the world.
>>290084606>This is killing bites.stfu seiya
>>290084606>you can't hit a knight with the same attack twice!how about thrice?
>>290085669This is the cheekiest we have seen Seiya since before the Sanctuary.
>>290084458>>290084438Seiya, you can fly.
>>290086026Er...That's the Sixth one
>>290085864This is the worst non-illusion fatality in the whole manga.
Today I learned it is a sin to go fishing.
Had Kishimoto gotten the axe announcement already by this point?
>>290086093>several light yearsSo hell is in the space?
>>290084665Well, his opponent isn't a knight.
>>290086160300 IQ Shun.
>>290085669Now I like Seiya for the first time.
>>290084058>Acheron CharonI bet Kurumada just likes the sound of that name.
>>290085614how strange to see kurumada draw these silly faces this late on the series. I guess he realized seiya wasn't as likeable for a protagonist. a bit too late to realize this
>>290085669>Japanese humor
>>290086261Ayeeeee
>>290084087Wait, now that I think about it, this isn't Styx?
>>290085726That's just Mu without the forehead marks.
>>290085726>it's mu modo infierno
>>290086261Shun, no!!
>>290086195Wait, hold on, is he supposed to be a Balrog?
>>290085774They won't say "pegasus" and "andromeda"? I kinda thought those became their surnames.
>>290086295In Greek Myth, it was the Styx but in The Divine Comedy, it's Acheron
>>290086128I get why the vagueposting but still funny he refers to his God as a mere "He".
>>290086322Yes
>>290085925>kills a bugTHAT'S YOUR HERO?
>>290085814>>290085828>>290085864This is my favorite chapter up to now.
>>290083611I wonder if the specters originally were just ghosts, early ones were too inhuman.
>>290084357That's sudden.
How are mithril and orcs fair game, but Kurumada has to use copyright friendly Balrog?
>>290086333>MilordHahaha we're up to three lookalikes now. How is Ikki going to take this?
>>290085925>Seiya doesn't even remember MihoThis is just one step away from having Miho in the cuck chair as Seiya plows Shaina and Saori.
>>290085947Does he not believe in self defense?
>>290086406Because VIZ fucked up the translation
>>290084606But you already used that move on him, Seiya...
>>290086128>spittinghow vulgar
>>290086093This is the third or fourth time Shun said this.
>>290086438Saints are the only ones the whole "Doesn't work twice" thing applies to
>>290084087>The specters were only released a while ago.>Meaning that the underworld was without its ferryman for centuriesWeird
>>290084858Kurumada finally read the Underworld isn't all Tartarus.
>>290086275>They had pure heartsThen why did you do this to them?
>>290086507El Hermano...
>>290085053I kinda like him.
>>290086507ENTER THE 2ND STRONGEST
>>290086429>Because VIZ fucked up the translationNot the Balron part, no.
>>290086507I really thought it was going to be Ikki. Shun was the one in trouble and he hasn't had an ENTER this arc yet.
>>290086560Ayeeeeee
>>290085669I wasn't expecting atual braap.
>>290086507HOLY ENTER
>>290086519>Then why did you do this to them?because RUURUUS
>>290085726El hermano de Mu?!
>>290086582Kwab
>>290086560>>290086582kwab
>>290086572Ah, then I don't know
>>290086582Was Kanon there to also see Seiya farting? Maybe that's why he only acted when Shun was attacked kek.
>>290086582And so, Kanon begins his Specter killing spree in the Underworld
>>290086626Er...Aren't you two already there?
>>290086652Mubros...Kanon forgot about us.
>>290085864>neck chopped>not an illusionThat's a first.
>>290086672>Ikki isn't here so we need someone else to pose as the bad boy of the group
I forget have we seen Rhadamantys without his helmet yet?Have we seen his unibrow?
>>290085925HE LIKES FISHING! BEHEAD HIM!
>>290086700This is almost Zoro vs Luffy levels of forced.
>>290086128ANOTHER el hermano?
I never noticed before, but both arcs after Sanctuary have a Saint of increasingly higher rank tagging in as part of the main cast
>>290086406Orcs are older than Tolkien, and you cannot copyright words.Balrog is a character, so he isn't fair game.
>>290086720based reformed Canon
>>290086398Back to the bullshit fakeout beheading then.
>>290085530likely by referencing a real photo
>>290086740That's pretty cool of you, Kanon.
>>290086792Balrogs are a species or groupThey were Morgoth's equivalent to the Nazgul
>>290086807No, you see it on some of the armors too, albeit a little simpler than this example.
>>290086790This is the first time we see this move being used right? In the anime he used on Seiya in the anime only battle by this point.
>>290086507I was expecting Ikki with his illusion.
>>290086855In the anime he actually first uses it to defeat the Gold Knights off-screen.
>>290086160Huh, that bit from the end of Elusive Samurai had some historical precedent
>>290084357>>290084382no! not your pendant, shun! remember all the previous times it helped you like... uh...
>>290086582KWAB
>>290086700We have. It looked very dumb.
>>290086700This is retarded.
>>290086920>Narrator: We never see planets and stars being destroyed.
>>290083992>Who are these people?>And why are they shaded so well??
>>290086950Yeah? What about this?>>290086947
>>290086424 the system is rigged to send everybody to hell, being alive is considered a sin
>>290086947For a moment the suit under the Surplice made it look like they entire skin was being torn off and bleeding.
>>290086967Fucking Orpheus? Or it's not THAT Orpheus?
>>290086118A few more volumes
>>290085669seiya? joking again?what was kurumada on when making this chapter?
>>290087040You know, seeing the actual real Cerberus in this manga is a bit of a whiplash, considering it's the only mythological monster to show up
>>290086996Where did those planets came from, Kurumada?Why doesn't the earth get damaged?
>>290087022Wait a minute, the greeks were egyptians all along?
>>290085814>>290085828the humour works
>>290087060I don't remember Cerberus in the anime.
>>290086840oh sure, in that case you gotta have the experience on how to render materials like that. but Kurumada must've still taken his time to observe real metalic objects to figure out how to do it
>>290087040Wait a second, an actual monster instead of someone wearing a Cloth of said monster? First it's Seiya joking around, now this. What happened this volume?
>>290085925our hero is... A PSYCHO?!
>>290084382>I've never taken it off beforeliar, you took it off when you were porking Juné before going to Sanctuary
>>290087093Wasn't that silver jobber's power being able to tame Cerberus? Why are Seiya and Shun have trouble here?
>>290086626>Ah, then I don't knowAccording to the French Seiya Wiki (which is actually chock full of info FYI) it was because of copyright reasons. They also suppose that his name could be a reference to the river Rhun from LOTR and a balrog enemy from Ultima III which was spelled Balron.
>>290086836Yes, that is the difference that make them copyrighted
>>290086507ENTEEEEEER
>>290086507ENTER THE 2ND STRONGEST (saga is the first)
>>290086893Is Radamanthys the wisest man in this manga?
>>290087226How is this character not a woman? Pandora and Athena look more manly than him
>>290086582>>290086560>>290086535FUARK
>>290087226>>290087257Missing Page 16.
>>290087201I guess it's like how Hobbits have to renamed whenever they are used in something
>>290087040Underrated.>>290087060We had a mermaid in poseidon.>>290087113I think Kurt got a bit more of freedom, he seems to have wanted to turn SS in a monster hunting manga for this arc
>>290086740kanon? my hero
