(CR) Saint Seiya Omega

[Kanon]

Yep, that's Integra in the pic. She's the new Gemini saint who is said to have a "Cosmos of justice". She will most likely fight against her older sister who has joined the Pallasites.

Anyway... holy shit IKKI!!! I was starting to get desperate.

[ShiroiRyu]

Oh man ...
Wanted Paradox, had Integra. :'(

Is that really what it says? Having a sister with the same powers doesn't really make sense considering the backstory they gave her.

Not really. Her backstory was that her parents were neglectful and that they thought she was strange because she claimed that she could predict the future. Integra could have had the same ability, but simply decided not to say anything about it, so their parents could have treated her better.

Though this is definitely among the plot elements they decided to add simply for season 2's sake.

[Justin_Brett]

Oh yeah definitely. Especially when it's with a character who's technically two in one already. You could even have them fight if you had a good enough explanation for it.

Nobody said her powers were the same.

Translation of her description (thanks to Archange for the French translation): Integra. Appeared to correct Paradox. She possesses a cosmos of justice and can shoot energy waves from the palm of her hands (kamehameha?).

The text on the right is blurry but I can make out パラドクスの妹, インテグラ　(Paradox's little sister, Integra) so she's definitely her sister unless the magazine is trolling. Some people think she is a combination of love and hate Para but that contradicts this magazine and the earlier spoiler revealing Paradox would defect to the Pallasites.

[Justin_Brett]

I don't mean exactly the same powers, just cosmos in general. Since she can control the cloth I'm assuming Integra has some kind of ability too. Even if it wasn't seeing the future or anything like that I don't know if a little kid would really think to hide it.

I guess at least it isn't just Ryuho fighting her again, I was wondering if they'd do that.

They're sort of doing that with the Gemini Saint in the Next Dimension manga.

Wait... according to the SS rules, there's only one way for cloths to evolve just like that:

Spoiler:

they are touched by the blood of a god. So... Subaru's a god

Hmm... No.

Cloths evolve when the person who gave the blood is really strong. That's why they changed in the original when the Gold Saints gave their blood. Hell, the Dragon New Cloth was created with Ryuho's blood.

So Subaru's blood triggering the evolution of the Equuleus Cloth is not prove that he's a god.

Well, either way, it was to be expected. Gemini Saints suffering from personality disorder while having a lost twin somewhere is pretty much a Saint Seiya rule at this point.

[DmonHiro]

Are you sure, because I'm quite certain you can only fix a damaged cloth with a saint's blood, not upgrade it.

Edit: I'm wrong. What I remembered about the blood was only about the god cloths, not regular ones. I still think he's a god, for a few other reasons.

[Birdway]

In rhe manga after Shiryu used his blood to revive Pegasus and his own cloth thet got a change.
When Mu repaired everyone's cloths with stardustthey changed to the version usedon Kaikai-hen.

Yep, a god's blood is only needed to get a God Cloth (or, in LC only, Alone's blood infused with Hades' cosmo created God Surplice). Omega did added that the Pegasus Cloth had been bathed in Athena's blood so many times throughout the generations (at least 3 times) that it was able to become a New Cloth by itself. The other New Cloths were evolved by Kiki or by a Saint's blood.

I'm pretty sure Subaru is going to be revealed to be something else. Either a god or another Rank 1 Pallasite.

[DmonHiro]

He's probably a rank 1, because when they were talking about the swords the rank ones use, they showed 5 swords, not just 4.

[ShiroiRyu]

Spoiler for 73:

First part was pretty slow.
The second : The dialogue between Athena and Harbinger.
The legendary bronze saints !
The legendary steel saints !
They are all here !
And the preview !

[Birdway]

Harbing has starting to show some manners towards Athena the moment he fel her huge cosmo.

He is like a wolf who follows the stronger.

As such he has a mission by carrying the god cloth.

3 gold saints joins the fight.

3....

Athena Exclamation anyone?

It seems the red hair 1st class is burning and willing to fight the newcomers in the battle field.

I liked that scene a lot. Harbinger was still keeping that "pff" attitude towards Athena...then witnessing her Cosmo instinctively made him step back in fear. First time we saw him losing his grin.

[Kanon]

Every major player is on the battlefield now. The only ones missing are Ikki and Paradox. I really can't wait for Ikki's entrance. They better not fuck it up. If only they could bring back Umakoshi for just one episode...
