Remember that both Medea and Mars shoose only strong people.
Thats why Medea choose Tokisada among her martians and the saints under Mars' command to be the Aquarius Saint. Because he IS strong enough to fit the cloth. It seems she also wanted to prevent a betrayal like others gold saints did and put some magical trap in order to whipe out everyone on Aquarius' cloth. Also, I don't think Sonia is weak as some people say. So far he was the only character that managed to land a hit on a gold saint and make one bleed. Mykene. The one who didn't get hurt from Haruto and Souma but just only a little scratch on his cloth. |

Who said anything about she deserving it? The fact remains: she is the Scorpio Saint like some of us predicted before. And I only stating my excitement that we got two female Gold Saints now, something other SS series don't have .

Sonia is still the daughter of Mars, so she's not a normal human
if the fight with Souma's father is any indication, there is something weird about her cosmo and it can spike unpredictably She's probably like Eden. Meaning that her base cosmo is high enough to match a gold saint, but she is held back by her own mental weakness. ..

I find it interesting that Shiryu was considered to be the Libra Saint before Genbu despite us not seeing him wear it during the initial fight with Mars.
Also do you guys think that Genbu being Dokho's second disciple a cop-out? |

The animation this week was extremely disappointing. A Gold vs Gold battle deserved better than that.

Making Shiryu the previous Libra saint is the real cop-out. Until now, he was only called the guardian of the cloth and we always saw him wearing the dragon cloth in the flashbacks. They probably changed this at the last minute to appease the fans. I'm sure they'll do the same for Hyouga.

I hope Tokisada isn't gone, because so far he's the only Gold Saint without a proper backstory (other than showing up for 2 seconds to murder Haruto's friend) and there's too much unanswered about what just happened .
I mean, who is he? Was he really evil? Then why the cloth had to manipulate him to kill? What was the point? And what's with the Aquarius cloth, anyway? There's no reason for it to be evil.. It just said the Libra cloth choose him as an user previously, which could be a callback to the Poseidon and Hades arcs. I mean, even if Shiryu fought against Mars wearing Dragon, they can't just erase those facts. |

Toei, however, once made a CD Drama with a made up post-Hades story. There Shiryu became the Saint. |

Shiryu always been Dragon, he only acted as Genbu's stand-in as Libra, because Genbu wasn't strong enough before, due not applying himself enough.
Then, after the whole first Mars debacle, Genbu did decide to train and apply himself, and the Libra Cloth did recognize him as worthy |
