Kouga being deity reincarnation is possible, but what mythological figure is known for having a dark and light side?
Quote:
Especially after Seiya sacrificing himself to seal Mars. Remember that Athena lost most of her Saints during the war with Hades

Considering the amount of times the Sanctuary had been filled with traitor Saints over the centuries and each time no less than either the Pope himself or other Gold Saints I wouldn't want to live in the Sanctuary either if I was Saori and instead would just take a handful of trusted companions instead.

But either way in the original there were definitely a lot of Saints who were questionable in nature. You could be right that it could have been Ares (evil Saga) appointed them for their "loyalty" towards himself instead of Athena. It seems only in Lost Canvas where Teshirogi had gone for a clear split of good (Saints) vs evil (Specters) where all the "evil" saints don't really hide their evil nature and directly became Specters instead.

I loved the first episode so much. It brought back all sorts of great memories. It was so good to hear Seiya voiced by Furuya again. A shame they didn't bring back Saori's original voice actress as well. And... wait a minute, Saori is voiced by Shokotan!? Now that was unexpected.
I don't know what to think of Kouga. He's obviously no ordinary kid, but it's hard to tell who he might be exactly. He was a little too whiny in this episode, but he's got the potential to be a good character. Quote:

I'm pretty sure Hori Yukitoshi returned to voice Tatsumi as well. Damn, what a nice surprise.

I'm a bit happy to be a sagittarius .
Sagittarius sign wasn't really cool in Saint Seiya... Aiolos, we never really saw him, and Sisyphe of Lost Canvas was just boring. But here, in Omega, Seiya looks really cool. I really like his fight as Sagittarius Saint! Well I didn't like him in the original Saint Seiya, but here, he looks charismatic. Furuya said that in the original Saint Seiya, Seiya wasn't on "top character" of people. And he said: "I want to be first in top character now". By the way, do you think we will see other Gold Saints? Yeah Mars said that Athena wasn't protected by a gold saint, but it can mean different things. Because I think Gold Saints are important in a way. When I was kids, everyone was saying "my sign is the best!! I am a Gemini, I'm so cool blablabla". It would be a bit disappointed if kids can't speak about that .

Well, I’m Scorpio and my saint’s weapon is .... a finger nail ? Can’t really brag about that . Oh well, I guess it’s okay. Also, Scorpio Saint’s attack is pretty sadistic since it slowly and painfully killing the opponent. No wonder Scorpio Kardia in LC was in charge of interrogation.

We know that Seiya is the only Gold Saint in Omega. So can we expect that there are 12 Gold Saints/cloth because they still use one of the twelve zodiac sign?
And we learn that some Silver-cloth got demoted into a bronze-cloth so I wonder if it's still 88 clothes. And I checked the OP with Seiya and other saints like Shun, Ikki, Hyouga, and Shiryuu but apart from Seiya they still looked like they were wearing their old cloth(Bronze).

I would be pleased with an arc about finding people who may fit the role of gold saint (and thus, having old characters back) |

Like I mentioned, disregard continuity is a must for this franchise. I won't get too hang up on how previous silver cloth become bronze cloth just like how I disregard Mars for been Mars and not Ares and thing like that. I mean really, this is just another spin off that is not exactly canon.
As for 1st episode, it was pretty great, the action is nice, the design looks good, the only thing I don't like is Sagittarius's wing, and a few VA choice, but those are stuff that you'll get use to anyway.

Oh yeah. So we can't tell what Shiryuu will be now. I wonder if his son will carry of being blind and near death numerous times Quote:
I see. Yeah it will be easier if I watch this is non-canon sequel. I wonder why they didnt use the real VA for Athena though. Seiya and Shaina got their old VA back.
