That was another decent episode. -So the Ryu Sei Ken is gonna be Kouga's big move, eh? What will happen if he ever pulls off the Sui Sei Ken? His opponent blows up into a million pieces? On the other hand, the Rolling Crush seems like a technique that's right up his alley. -Why didn't the other Saints summons their cloths when the Martians round them up? Like the Compress dude for example. Yeah, I understand their cosmos were hindered, but Yuna and Ryuho had no problem breaking out their armors. There were hundreds of Saints and maybe only a dozen Martians on scene. They could've taken them. -BEAR GEKI: Sir, I salute you. -Nooo the twelve temples!  Did Mars only blow up the temples or all of Sanctuary? Pffft, he only got away with that because the temples were long abandoned. If Shaka or Saga were still around, peoples would be getting slapped and they know it. -Waiting for Haruto to crack out the sharingan any day now. P.S.: Coolest Omega character so far, and I mean his personality. Don't really give a damn about the ninja techs, flashy as they were. P.P.S.: That was one long transformation scene! Is he gonna do a dance number too next time? :\ -Wondering who this other gold saint is gonna be, if it isn't Ionia or Seiya again. Maybe that weird Aries looking dude we saw in the flash shot a couple of episodes ago? Right now the new bronzies are gonna need some extra fire power if they can't even take on Ionia. I doubt it's Shiryu - at least, not yet. I mean, as badass as it would be for him to suddenly pop up with the Libra Cloth ready to kick ass, it would strip away Ryuho's reason to win the Saint Fight... wait, that's now canceled, isn't it? Ok never mind, bring on the Libra Saint! Aquarius Hyoga also acceptable. |

The destroyed 12 palaces scenes should be more impact. They should have show all 12 palaces.
I wish they rescue old bronzies before they go to sanctuary.

Meh, I already see this as a repeat of original saint seiya all over again.
Our 5 bronzies reach Sanctuary, and all the remaining gold saints becomes traitors as Ionia pointed out that he convinced many saints to switch side.
I'm already ready for my disappointment next week.
I do enjoy this series and all but it really annoys me how every freaking Saint Seiya aside from Lost Canvas just HAVE to make the gold saints bad guys. Cant we see them lend a hand for once? (LC excluded).
As far as Haruto go, I didnt really mind the ninja stuff. It was kind of out of place sure, but in the end of the day, Saint Seiya IS a kid's show, especially this version. It fits with the demographics. Besides whats wrong with using ninja techniques on top of his cosmo? Better than Kouga mindlessly rushing in all the freaking time.

Episode G has the Golds as the good guys and as the main characters. Have you read that? |

I'm actually really sad Geki is gone already. He was awesome, and after doing nothing except strangling bears in the original saint seiya it was nice to see him as a character. I'm kinda hoping he isn't really dead... Why didn't he put his bear cloth on? I don't think anyone is going out strangle bears to get that cloth haha. Plus, after the whole defeating Hades thing don't you think the other bronzies would have taught the other remaining saints about the seventh sense and how to unleash the full power of their cosmo? If Geki was a teacher, then its implied that he has already discovered his element and mastered it, he should be able to to handle Mars' henchies. Meh.
I'm hoping they bring back the seventh and eighth sense concepts. Even though this show is relying on the importance of the elements, I still think that they should have to unlock their seventh sense on top of using their elements to the full potential in order to be the ultimate saints. There is no way any one of these new saints could take someone like Ikki or a gold saint down without using more of their cosmo as opposed to just using a powerful element attack. I just don't buy it after seeing what the seventh sense can do, and how powerful the original gold saints like Shaka and Saga were. Even without an element, Ikki or someone like Saga and Shaka or any other gold saint would destroy them.
Which brings me to my next thing. BRING IKKI BACK!

7th Sense would crush elements, hands down. But those wanting it back in the series should calm down. The original work didn't introduce it until after 40 episodes and even Lost Canvas only barely mentions it. I think I would even cringe at the idea of the new bronze Saints unlocking the 7th sense within the first 25 episodes. It would be a total mockery of the efforts of their predecessors during the Sanctuary Arc. 7th sense is something only fighters with Gold Saint potential could achieve and only after a lot of training and emotional hardship. It shouldn't be something to be abused by Omega. Let them rely on elements for a while, even if it has its flaws.
And yes, Geki was awesome, but he should have done more as the Bear Bronze Saint and a teacher that is a part of Seiya's generation. Where is his Cloth? Ichi still has his, so Geki should follow the same rule even if Nachi's went to Haruto. And, most importantly, where the hell is Ichi? He better make more appearances, and cooler ones, too, because I am sick of him being the butt monkey of the series! He deserves more than that.
I'm gonna level with you guys, though: I'm a fan of Naruto, but I never liked ninjas/spies in media. I've always been more of a samurai guy. But I think that, so long as Haruto remains a cool character and the whole "being a ninja thing" doesn't get pushed to the point of being ridiculous, he could balance well among the others. I just hope he never kills anyone wearing an armor with those bombs of his. Even Bronze Cloths are designed to take brutal attacks far stronger than a few firecrackers. So long as he uses them only as a decoy, like I said, he could be a great character.

Did he say he was no longer the bear saint? That must have flew right past me.

I am hoping this other renegade Gold Saint can shed some light, no pun intended, on what happened to the -other- Gold Saints. Specifically, our rumored Bronze champions. It'd be nice to know if Shiryu, Hyoga, and Shun really are unable to battle for various reasons and whether or not they've taken on their assumed Golden mantles.

Episode G has the Golds as the good guys and as the main characters. Have you read that?
I read it up to the point where the english scanlations stopped. I havent seen an update in years. I cant stand reading raws with a translation at the bottom. It was ok, quirky shojo-esque artstyle but at least it showed the sanctuary united for the most part, even though some obvious stuff is going on like Saga on the throne. By the way is Saint Seiya Omega going to be a long running series or will it just end at 12 episodes like all other seasonal animes? I more its the former but if its the latter that mean we're near the end already...? |

If the new bronzies have to go through Tower of Babel, there'a no way it can finish at 20th something episode.
