That's one of my favorite parts. Shiryu is such a badass.

Shiryu vs Algol is a top 5 fight in all Shonen IMO.

Not quite.

That said I do like how people just fucking die after one or two episodes so the plot can move on.

Fist of the North Star took this idea and just ran to the moon with it.

The Lost Canvas is a great spin off. Too bad they never finished the anime, but the manga is done and great.

The anime is also great it just ends on a shit cliffhanger.

Probably for the best since Regulus is straight bullshit.

By the way, you're getting close to a point now where you're going to start noticing some... Uhh... Let's call them "visual inconsistencies"

This is because the anime studio did a bunch of stupid shit without Kurumada's approval and Kurumada had to argue with them to change it to how it's supposed to be.

100% with some asterisks.

You can get the full timeline from start to finish but some plot points get dropped to make room for filler. The biggest issue being Taurus Aldebaran is attacked by Siren Sorrento losing his hearing in the process in the manga. This later allows a spectre to ambush him but in the anime this never happens. Sorrento ambushes a filler character instead and Aldebaran just ends up looking like a massive fucking jobber.

there's no anime for Next Dimension yet which is the continuation.

thats 80s design for you

I love saint seiya. It basically had 5 protagonists, and they are are very different from each other and at least at some points of the show there is no clear # 1 (its seiya, but others get their time to shine too).

its very different from modern DBZ style shonen animes where the protagonist (eg goku or the guy from one man punch) are the only worthy fighter and the # 2 (eg vegeta or the robot guy from one punch man) are too weak to do shit

Shun is confirmed stronger than Seiya but his gentle nature makes him always hold back while fighting.

The one time he goes all out (vs Aphrodite) is like his true baseline.

Shiryu is such a little bitch. Gets killed by Cancer Deathmask, gets sent to hell and has a whole episode about how hes going to get better and face his demons (literally and metaphorically), gets out and comes back to life just to get killed by Cancer Deathmask again the very next episode

Surprised we never actually found out what happened with Seiya's sister though

Uhh that's not how that happened at all.

Cancer Deathmask kills Shiryu then decided to follow him into them underworld to destroy his soul but ends up getting the shit beaten out of him.

We do. It ended up being literally nothing. Marin finds her and she prays for Seiya's victory against Thanatos.

That was clearly the original intent but Kurumada changed his mind halfway through.
