What about Odin Aiolia:
That honestly has a really nice contrast with the base battle suit. Now it makes me upset with just how expensive saint seiya merch is that is probably $200 minimum for an action figure the same size as the lightning collection of power rangersWhat about Odin Aiolia:
Wait, Ive never seen the movies. Are you saying that Lyra Orpheus appeared in a movie before showing up in Hades arc?Yep Mime is cool. Ikki said his blows were as strong as Saga's. Fun fact did you know Mime is based off Lyra Orpheus from the first movie and even uses the same melody as him and has the same VA:
The thing about Mime is his dad could've just treated him well and told him from the start though.......
Then again, Camus wasn't even Hyoga's teacher in the anime...

Someone who used the same armor and different name
Canon name is Orphee
guy in movie is Orpheus
From what I heard, the movie came first and was popular enough where they just retconned the story, in order to create that whole tv arc.
The only Saint Seiya movies worth watching are:
- the Asgard movie
- the Abel movie
- Heaven Chapter: Overture
- Legend of Sanctuary
- the Asgard movie
- the Abel movie
- Heaven Chapter: Overture
- Legend of Sanctuary
Eris OVA was really bad though. Orion Jaga was basically an evil clone of Ikki.
All of Eris' Saints were clones of the main cast. Although Orion went too far since his helmet was way too close to anime Ikki's.
The latam dubbing had some translations at the level of "all your base are belong to us", it was hilarious.

Nah man last one is ass and why the overture?

No, these guys are basically the Black Saints but Silver Saints:
Why is the second movie liked so much?
Heaven Chapter I hated it SOOOOO much as a kid but looking back I'm starting to appreciate it. It has gorgeous music and animation and it takes an interesting meta commentary on Saint Seiya that was different from the usual formula (and probably for the best as Kuramada is currently just recycling again). Too bad it was revealed BEFORE the Hades was finished being animated which was confusing and it also pretty much is responsible for the current state of Saint Seiya.
Legend of Sanctuary is rushed as hell.
OP
OP
But The Last Jedi is one of the best Star Wars films. The Heaven Chapter wasn't all that great (though, did love the music).
On another note we all know that the ages in Saint Seiya are meaningless right? Like there is no way the Bronze Saints are 13-15.
I mean, we saw them 6 years prior when they start their training, 7-9 would fit how old Seiya and the gang looked.
It's more of an issue that Aquila Marin is 16, so she would have been 10 when she started training Seiya (Cepheus Daidalos would have been 13, since he's the oldest Silver Saint at 19, and Aquarius Camus would have been 14). Guessing he didn't consider that when noting her age. >_>
When you get to the Gold Saints mostly being 20-23, so 13 years ago...
In the manga, Aiolos was 14, the same age as Shun and Hyoga, when he died, so this is how he looked in the manga:
The anime made him look like he was in his 20s.
Feels like most anime back then. In Sailor Moon, they were mostly middle school-aged the whole show, but sure looked way older.
80s/90s = teens looked like adults
Present day = adults/teens look like kids
OP

Manga Aiolos still looks older than 14. Heck, Gold Saints in general look older than 20.I mean, we saw them 6 years prior when they start their training, 7-9 would fit how old Seiya and the gang looked.

Yeah Saints and Saori are supposed to be 13-15 but look/act like grown adults, Seiya owns a house, Saori runs her own company and they are called men many times, Hyoga even drives at one point
We see their future selves and well.....are they 14 or 22 here:

It looks like they tried to add like lipstick to make them look older, but they look the exact same :p I know in the future there was something about how they don't really age, so the real answer is probably like 500 years old or something.
Hot take: Fake Sagittarius Cloth looks better than the real one.
This looks like a low budget bootleg golden Gundam. The real Sagittarius is the GOAT.
OP
OP
Crystal is way worse, they don't even try with lipstick lmao
and doesn't Usagi become Neo Queen Serenity against Wiseman in the present so that really makes it worse
Something like that, but clearly the artist didn't give a shit :/
Yeah, that's just 80s/90s style anime, when teens all looked like adults in their 20s. Without context and looking at Seiya characters, I'd consider almost all of them to be at LEAST in their 20s.
It kinda gets weird in Soul of Gold where Aiolia and Lyfia are implied to have romance between them but Lyfia is said to be 16 and he's 20.......
OP
OP
15-16 year olds:
Seriously?? I mean, I guess they wanted to go for that demo age, but lol.
Seiya owning a house and Hyoga driving I only remember from the anime. Saori technically owns her "grandpa's" company, but I imagine she doesn't run the day to day operations. It just keeps money coming in for all those pricey flights to Greece, lol.
The mere fact that the series is supposed to take place in the real world in the modern era doesn't make sense. I think only Episode G didn't try to sweep this aspect under the carpet.
OP
OP
I think the anime even had them driving at one point. They just didn't care at all about the ages.
Jojo really takes the cake ask what dio's and johnathan's ages were originally actually ask jotaro's

ResetEra will be like "this anime ended toxic masculinity" and it's the ugliest outfit you've ever seen
"Hey Hyoga, remember that time I almost ripped your heart out?"
Tenkai-Hen is the best Saint Seiya movie ever, I'll never tire of saying it!!
And I'm heartbroken because we will never have such an amazing movie like this one ever again.
yup, that final moment was quite hype too

That there were once proud men who fought against even the gods without fear.
where is the lie?Tenkai-Hen is the best Saint Seiya movie ever, I'll never tire of saying it!!

I watched Tenkai Hen as a kid and I just remember being confused. Like I just didn't understand the plot at all. I should rewatch it lol
