I only watched the original, the Hades chapter and a part of lost canvas animes. But it was an okay watch.ĭid anyone else notice that from Hyoga's mental image of the Saints, it looked like Camus was a female now too? Though i don't see a problem with this one since He barely had any character development outside his connection to Hyoga. Seeing as we are already i The Silver Saint Arc. The secondary plot with Vargas is just distracting. Punch attacks were just lame and lazyly made. I liked it better when it was the seal that kept the Black Saints on Death Queen Island. I was a little bummed that Guilty's mask was just a "make you evilish" mask. The main plot with the prophecy needs to be explained further. Ikki would have been a more awesome fit for it. Shun's sex change was extremely unnecessary as it's just a stereotypical girl now with Shun's personality.
The worst offender was when it skipped over Seiya's training. There were so many plot holes and bad editing that i lost count. (hyoga being an assassin was not in the anime)Īnd then the bad stuff. Seeing Hyoga's change of heart was something that both the manga forgot, so that was an a nice although very confusing scene. Seeing Shun follow the guidance of her chains was a sweet expansion on the story. Some attacks like Hoyoku Tenshou and Diamond Dust were nicely animated. And for once they both got nice animations. Dohko speaking like a classic wise chinese man was nice. But this new plot seems to indicate it's Marin.
I did like that we got to feel a bit more connected to Seiya's search for his Sister. G eludes me)Īnyway, let's start with the positive stuff.
At this point, I think LoS is better than N:SS (Netflix: Saint Seiya) in terms of 3DCG. Never let Americans to remake a legendary series. How Masami Kurumada gave a green light to this is beyond me. In conclusion, Netflix Saint Seiya is made to attract the new fans. Let's not get started on the English names. He used Lightning Plasma on NORMAL PEOPLE. I can't believe that Aiolia obliterated that helicopter with Lightning Plasma. Shun in Netflix version is so.it feels odd, you know?Īnd the fact that Saints are fighting against normal people? Gods, a Saint should know that they're much more powerful than a normal human being.
Shun was well known as a soft, kind hearted boy and he is one of the major protag for the series even having more screentime than Milo. Why? It is safe to say that Scorpio Milo is a side character and barely had screentime.Īs for Shun's genderbend issue, it makes people slightly uncomfortable. It's different, you see? In LoS, when Milo was genderbent, people are actually okay with it, some even praised it (including me). And the fact that Shun's gender was changed is what triggered the fans. Some say that Eugene Son himself did not actually read the series completely. But for long-time fans, this is probably an insult. Mangahere English up-to-date on the Lost Canvas series but contains early Saintia Sho chapters and most Next Dimension chaptersīut story wise? It's debatable. Mangahere Español up-to-date on all series except Saintia Sho Provided below are links to both an English and Spanish version of the Mangahere website. We will provide you with whatever websites we find that have the most chapters for each canon & non-canon series. Unfortunately for our English-only redditters, there are certain chapters in the series that cannot be found online to read. We also recommend using websites like 9anime as not all anime streaming services have the entirety of the Classic series. The majority of Saint Seiya anime may be found on Crunchyroll. As such, do expect most of the links to direct you to a Spanish site.ĭiscord Threads for all Saint Seiya series Please note: The SS series has had a far better reception in Japan and Latin America than in the US.
