Apparently, Eden called Sonia "Ani-ue" which mean big sister. Was Eden being son of Mars is in that old rumors? Wonder if Yuna is a sister of a goddess will be right too.
Yes it was... Though it also had that Yuna and Aria were Mars' daughters too... As to why Eden will make a face-turn I can think of two way: his loyalty ends up being towards Airia and not Mars or he gets to experience an "I will save Saori-san!"-powered Pegasus Ryu Sei Ken and realizes that the side of true strength is with the real Athena. |

This episode is poorly put together imo, even by Omega standard. The episode just made me more convinced that the production team just throw in anything that came into their mind, jumble them up and expect that the audience will like it...  That aside, I liked how we get a to see a little more about Eden and Mycene. Although I still don't quite get how Yuna managed to make a path in the whirlwind? O.o I s that how wind is supposed to behave or am I thinking too much? |

You know what, that actually wasn't too bad of an episode. Not as epic as 12 and a bit all over the place, but way better than any of the Palestra episodes.
-We learn that Eden is related to Mars, most likely adopted. I'm gonna go on a limb and say he hates Mars for using his sister as a puppet so he's been training with Mycene to one day defeat him. But the other bronze saints screwed up his plans and now he's pissed. This might make Senor Leo a good guy by association.
-So Mars encourages promotion among ranks in Sainthood, it seems. And the fact that he's built 12 new temples means he's looking for peeps to fill up the houses.
-WTF @ the nasty-ass Fly Saint. I mean, yeah, the constellation never really had its share of nice dudes, but I'd take Dio over this tub of lard any day! And so far we've met the Crow, Hound, and Fly Saints. That leaves us with the Whale, Perseus, Capella, Lizard, Hercules, and I believe a few others if Toei is trying to stick with just familiar silver constellations.
-Holy crap Saori. At least now we know she still has her physical form.
-So that little RPG message from Seiya is the last of his cosmos? At least "on Earth" apparently. I wonder if Mars has him imprisoned in his home planet.
-Yuna traveling to that snow field and meeting up her sensei is a nice homage to Hyoga having to fight the Crystal Saint. Actually, it would be cooler if Hyoga was her sensei because not only would that make sense (wind + water = ice?) but it would also serve as a tribute to movie 2 when Hyoga was brainwashed into being Midgard. Oh well.

His sister?
I actually think Aria is probably his fiancee/childhood friend. |

Oh, so it's different for other gender, i wonder if there's female version of aniki too.
That'd be aneki. Since the other Bronzies now show up in the OP with their V1 Cloths, that might mean it's positive they're not Gold Saints in Omega, unlike Seiya. Conflicted feelings ensue. @mikimiki Ha, if Aria is Eden's fiancee, I can see Kouga grumbling that he'd better treat her right, etc. |

Shun's flash back in ep12 shows that Seiya was the only one that became a Gold Saint when Mars attacked. There was a batch of rumors (of which a couple have turn out to be true) that said Hyoga became the Aquarius Saint (and is currently frozen) but it conflicts with the flashback. |

That Silver Saint Fly guy was really... wrong. If I were in Japan watching in real time, I would not want to see that fugly creeper at 6:30a.m.
I don't think this was the worst episode, but it was definitely disappointing after the last episode. Sometimes I feel like the plot is all over the place, but maybe it's too early to be judgmental. Also, I'd like some more Haruto scenes--I don't really feel one way or the other about him, but I feel like all he does is stereotypically "show up and be ninja cool." And Aria is driving me crazy! I guess she did something, but I wish it was something bigger/more awesome. (So many complaints!)
I thought Seiya's message was a nice throwback though.
I'm looking forward to next week though to get more dirt on Yuna who, IMO, is continually getting short-changed in fight scenes.

It wasn't that bad of an episode. I certainly rolled my eyes when Yuna grabbed her "wind cosmos stone", or whatever it was called. Where is the good old blood of other saints to make the clothes stronger....? anyways...
It was an entretaining episode. Eden's part was quite interesting and insightful. Can't wait to learn more about whats happening on his side. And Kouga wasn't as annoying as in previous episodes, so cuddos to him...
Seiya appearing came out of nowhere, but it didn't hurt the episode, it was a nice bit. Hopefully we'll get more messages like this from the other saints on the other locations, but i wont hold my breath...
Now Mars last comment, THAT was interesting. Seiya last bit of cosmos? just what the hell happened to him? is he dead? trapped? unconscious? I'm quite interested...
And Saori? meh, im sure she's ok. I mean, how many times does this make? I'm sure she's has a nintendo ds or something to pass the time....
And i refuse to comment on that Fly guy.....I thought the original series had creepy guys, but this is quite...er...something...

The Fly guy looming over downed Kouga or Yuna and always with that tongue... he was pretty creepy!
Looks like Aria is acting more normal. First several times it seemed like she could barely even talk...
Nice to see some more on Eden. I wouldn't be surprised if Taco is spot on. Hehe, the woods are set ablaze just so he can look cool stalking off thru that fiery scene... ^^
This setup is like a RPG game... maybe we will get something like that eventually... XD
