(CR) Saint Seiya Omega

[Miraluka]

Blame Toei. Kurumada's manga looks like brats while Toei made them look sometimes like characters from HnK.

BTW:

Spoiler for 80:

First part was meh ...
Second part like when Subaru showed some of his powers to Tokisada was pretty good.
Same for the totem of the 4 god armor. O_o
But Hyoga freezing Tokisada ...
Nope.

The First Clast Chronotectors...

[Kanon]

Looks like Galaxian's early speculations about the Chronotectors were spot-on.

Yeah those ages are legit. They appeared in volume 13 in a character file. Probably the most confusing thing is that Marin has the same age, height, and weight as Seika. Does this mean Marin is secretely a clone?

I'm sure at one point Marin and Seika were the same person, but then Kurumada decided to have them as separate characters. A lot of Saint Seiya was made up as Kurumada went along

They did look younger in the manga, but not as young as they should. Obviously Kurumada came up with those ages to fit the shonen target audience.

Anyway, at least Toei revised the character designs from Asgard onwards so the Bronze Saints started looking shorter and more kiddish in the anime. Sometimes i wonder if they didn't realize the characters were supposed to be kids at first, when you remember scenes like Hyoga driving.

That reminds me that when I was a kid watching the Sanctuary arc and came across some pictures showing Seiya and the other main characters wearing their v2 Clothes, I assumed they were their children in the future, because they looked younger to me. Little did I know that 17 years later Toei would actually produce a TV series about the next generation of Athena's Saints.

Wow, so First Class Parasite's Chronotectors are 3 times stronger than Gold Saints?
No wonder they look down on saints and the previous Gold Saints being a second class parasite.
Where's Ikki when you need him!? The saints will get stomped without him.

This episode was mostly predictable all around (it was obvious that the only way to stop an immortal would be freezing him forever), but i appreciated how they connected Tokisada's rescue to this new war's origins. It's also obvious at this point that the enemy is Cronos/Saturn, but the mystery of how and why he ended up becoming Subaru remains.

[Galaxian]

I said it a while back, my theory is that Ikki chased him into Subaru

I like that Hyoga doesn't even need to charge to reach absolute zero anymore. This episode makes it seem that absolute zero has pretty much become the default temperature for his attacks,

[Ozuma]

lol if Chronos took residence in Subaru because Ikki scared the shit out of him.

The video game Saint Seiya: Brave Soldiers is out in the US.

[Ozuma]

@Galaxian

According to my pops the one I ordered from Asian whatever site for Saint Seiya: Brave Soldiers will be here in a few days.

December's Tv Magazine scans:

Spoiler:

Ikki vs Aegaeon and it seems Ryuho will be the first to awaken the Omega, facing Rhea.

(Note that those magazine drawings aren't always accurate indicatives of the actual events)

Remember when we were talking about what a bitch Shiryu is guys?

I'm talking to this one guy on another forum and he says Shiryu shouldn't be criticized for wanting to retire in Next Dimension.

Here he says:

Read properly dude, I know the whole Shunrei and Shiryu relationship is implied that they are together (I never call shunrei his lover since there has been no 100% confirmation in Next Dimension, but living together while raising a child pretty much says everything) I know that man. I never said they were like siblings for the last time.
Also it's not even close to be the same. Shiryu is a family man in Next Dimension, he has to provide for his girl and adopted infant (so judging by your reply, you probably think is okay to leave your woman and child by themselves to go blindlessly towards a dangerous quest with no way to ensure that they will be fine on their own, I asked you this question and didn't reply so I'm allowed to assume as much) with Kouga, Saori is athena and there's no time to be babysitting some kid who should already be able to take care of himself since he's a saint already.

Also dude shit-talks about Kouga to no end saying that he wouldn't last a minute in the Sanctuary where Seiya spent most his life. That and Kouga doesn't deserve the Pegasus cloth. Even though he attacked a god before Seiya bestowed the Pegasus cloth to him.

This has to be the weakest bit of the argument from him which we're having about Kouga:

Also a big problem with him, specially this season is that he needs to learn stuff that saints should already know (this actually applies to his team as well). He rarely uses his brain in fights unless someone tells him. In the original anime sure seiya did spam a lot, but that's not even his fault but most of the filler battles consisted in mostly doing this.
