And of course, then there is the Gold Cloths.

Yeah, i thought about that. It's almost like they don't give a damn about time.
Which is weird, as the Soul of Gold's writers seem interested on giving old fans many callbacks, like Aldebaran's 'humiliation" and now how the Cancer's cloth left Deathmask right before his death. Maybe they're paying more attention to the classic series than the 2000's ovas.

Still, having Kanon somehow finding his way to obtain a new identity and pose as a God Warrior sounds too fanficy and convoluted. Not to mention we already have Camus and apparently Shura covering that angle.

Also, resurrecting Kanon (who wasn't present when they brought down the wall) would raise new questions, like "why not Shion, too?".

Hades only wore a Surplice and Poseidon a Scale.

Well Saga looking the strongest but Death Mask takes it this episode

I just figured out that the wing things on the gold clothes must be like cosmos antennas, no wonder with 8 of them DM got a massive power up.

He's from the previous generation, so...

[Birdway]

Well, he DIDN'T die in the Wailing Wall.

Poor Kanon would have survived if his Geminis Cloth had let him finish Radamanthys. ;_;

Shion was alive until recently, like Dohko. And by that logic, Kanon took no part and wasn't a Gold Saint anymore when they took down the wall either, like Shion.
If they could bring back two Gemini, even one who just briefly covered for his brother, then why not two Aries? All bets would be off, as the story is supposed to be about the 12 Gold Saints who destroyed the wall and vanished.

[Tong]

You see, unlike Saga/Kanon, Aspros/Defteros and Cain/Abel, Shion and Mu aren't parallel existences. And unlike Dohko, that has always been the Libra Saint, Mu succeeded Shion as the Aries Saint.
The Gemini are exceptions, and we already saw a similar theme with Bado and Shido in the classic Asgard saga.

Trust me, that mysterious guy is Kanon because that's how cliche Saint Seiya is.

He was too cool to keep on living .

Cover for the first volume:



Hopefully it sells well since Toei tends to give DVD/BR sales a lot of weight.

Another good episode in terms of character an plot. the Aioria/Shura dynamic has not been actually explored outside of Episode G and they answer the question of how the Gold Cloths were going to reach God level.

However, the animation actually reached a point lower than episode 2's.

I wasn't paying much attention but how did Aldebaran obtained a God Cloth?

Yeah, Dohko had some weird expressions.

Athena's tears fell on the Taurus Cloth, which, according to Soul of Gold, gives it the ability to temporary go God level.

To be honest, I kinda found Milo's death to be more hilarious then sad.

[Tong]

Lmao all the cheeeeeeeese in this episode.

to be fair after omega gold saint deaths in the final battle and after see afrodite trapped rater than died i doubt he really died, he is probably with afrodite now being a sort of "cow of cosmos" to be drained/sucked.
we have a great chance to see all the saint alive in the final battle before they "die again".

[Galaxian]

Technically, all the Gold Saints are still dead. They are Einherjar, so they're essentially zombies walking around Asgard.

But yeah, Andreas is obviously going to put Milo along with Aphrodite in his own Gold Saint display shelf, but they will be freed/brake out in time for the final fight, that was evident when Aprho was "killed" before awaking his God Cloth.

[nishikinomaki]

Milo God Cloth. Aldebaran God cloth. Aioria God cloth.
