Kanon or Saga? Who's best?
Saint Seiya
80s evil Saga
Golden Triangle>Another dimension
In terms of what?
Aesthetics
Kanon had the best character journey. From bitter man with brother issues to one of the reasons behind hades defeat.
>sidenote
A lot of people said that saga suicide went along with japanese ideals of honor. But why would a greek man, western man would follow such things?
>But why would a greek man, western man would follow such things?
It's written by an easterner, there's no rule or anything even saying Saga had such a thing in mind as thinking about "Eastern ideals" but it does fit in with how the rest of the story is written.
Kanon
>Didn't kill himself like a pussy despite doing arguably worse shit than him
>Face his sins and live on with the shame of being a traitor
>Wasn't a schizo
Kurumada did him dirty by not making him the pope
It's not Saga's fault. He was possessed by an evil god named Ker. Read Saint Seiya Origin.
Kurumada is senile
el caballero de junini....
>Didn't kill himself like a pussy despite doing arguably worse shit than him
I mean he tried suicide by god at the end of the Poseidon arc and it was 100% bullshit that he survived.
No he wasn't. He was just trying to be god-like good that he created his own Piccolo.
Athena saved him with her healing powers (while at the same time she let the bronzes in the hospital for several days)

>destroys hades curse from seiya while her sister does nothing but watch
>even in certain death against apollo, stays along side seiya ready to fight him
Athena under kurumada:
>damsel in distress
Ehhh, not really true. She's the one that takes out the main bad guy in every arc.
>drives Saga to an hero himself
>traps Poseidon after getting the jar
>runs Hades through
there are several honor suicides in some Greek tragedies like Antigone(antigone and Haemon) and Oedipus King (Jocasta)
Saga.
Yes but saga's was explicitly as how a japanese would do it
Saga.
Odysseus
Fanfiction.

F A N F I C T I O N.
>saga
Done way better under toei. She establishes dominance by making it clear that if the world becomes like saga, then she would allow the gods to destroy it
isnt she (or nike) the only reason the bronzies manage to overcome everyone due her apparent enormous cosmo? without her aid they wouldnt have passed aldebaran at most lmao
Saga having two personalities to symbolize Gemini was enough, Kanon was redundant
>she would allow the gods to destroy it
user, have you ever read anything with Athena? If she thought the world worthless she'd destroy it herself.
Saga was not done better by Toei at all. He was sabotaged to the point his whole character was screwed up. The whole "Pope Ares" thing ruined it.
NEXT DIMENSION IS CANON
COPE MORE
Nike's overrated IMO. Saga hyped her and Athena's shield up but Hades and Artemis tossed the shield aside immediately and she needed the Saint's help to beat Hades.
Of course, Nike can always say
>well, my work here is done
>but you didn't do anything
>didn't I? *flies away*
