Shit taste shipper.

Was the "Silver stronger than Golds" just an exageration of the rumor or is Orphée really suppossed to be stronger than the Gold Saints.

I can see him being stronger than Cancer or Pisces but I have a hard than believing than he is stronger than Shaka or Saga/Kanon.

>>146539537
IT4S A FUCKING BALROG!

>>146533997
This sounds so stupid coming from Seiya...

>>146540801
He might be stronger than some Gold.

Rumor has it, he was going to be Cancer, but Death Mask cheated for the final exam.

Orphée is Scorpio.

>>146535096

>>146537698
Wait, Canon can also use the same Genmaken as Ikki? Did he copy it? Although I think in the anime Ikki had learned it from Saga.

>>146537902
Here comes Kanon's RAPE RAPE show.

>>146536850
Thank you!

>>146539196
I remember a similar thing being pretty cool in Lost Canvas.

>>146535949
That's one of the reasons i prefer the manga over the anime, the manga had humor without abusing it, unlike the anime which took itself too seriously.

Now, I don't want to argue or anything, but saying that Seiya and Shun are doing anything but really shittily in the fights here is asbsurd. Seiya was literally saved from dying like 4 times in this volume alone. Sure he beat Charon but by all rights, Charon had him outskilled and only held back because of Shun, and he was totally helpless in the two fights after that. Meanwhile, Kanon is out kicking ass and taking names.

>>146547052
The phantom demon emperor attack is Saga's brainwashing technique from the anime (Genrou Maou Ken) not Ikki's Genma Ken.

I'd guess the answer is no, but did anyone ever bother making fanart with profile-style shots of these "era of myth" bronze saint clothes from Omega?

They just appear in two quick flashback scenes that are filled with QUALITY, so I'd guess not... but at the same time they're close enough to the originals that it shouldn't be hard to tweak them.

>>146547497
Seiya shines when it counts, he always leaves the fodder to someone else.

Also remember that he loses a lot of his fights, I mean since the first arc he almost died against Black pegasus, in sanctuary he got his ass kicked by Aiolia, he jobbed to that illusion guy in poseidon.

>>146547497
The bronzes have not mastered their 7th sense yet, so of course they would look inexperienced next to Kanon.

By the way, what does Shinwa mean? is it Myth or something?

>>146547838
>>146547839
Not that anon, but it's still pretty weird. Up to the end of Sanctuary, it seems like they're all progressing very quickly. Even during Poseidon, it's not clear that it has changed since the Gold Saints aren't very involved for comparisons.

Even in the beginning of Hades you get Seiya beating up Death Mask. It's only during the post Sanctuary part of Hades that it suddenly seems like they're pretty much stuck with the same level they had back two arcs ago.

>>146547829
It's literally just the v1 Cloths from the anime with no character actually defined inside, that's why no one bothered, really.

>>146547963
Myth

>>146534393
The OP was actually written by Kurumada

>>146548009
Deathmask suffered no damage from that fight, he would have taken down Seiya if Mu didn't interfere.

>>146548178
No he wouldn't.

One thing is Seiya being a slow starter but he'd kill Death Mask the moment he burns his cosmo.

>>146548043
>It's literally just the v1 Cloths from the anime with no character actually defined inside, that's why no one bothered, really.
There are some differences from the anime v1s, like no red lines for Pegasus, black underclothes and a crest in the middle of the helmet for Dragon and crotch armor for Andromeda.

>>146548178
DM got his ass kicked by Shiryu, Seiya would murder him.

Stop with the Gold Wank.

I'm pretty sure that's just unintended QUALITY mostly. I love the shit out of Omega but it had its moments there, undeniable.

This is probably close enough for Pegasus in a sense no less.

>>146547404
I don't think the anime's style suited comedy

All in all I like that the anime is just that little bit different with basically the same plot, it's better than just being a bland knockoff that moves and has sound, there was actual direction and artistic intent in a kids show aimed at selling toys

I really feel like playing Soldier's soul now. Gotta unlock all those characters.

>>146548538
>I don't think the anime's style suited comedy
I think most of the anime new scenes with Seiya with the Orphanage crew, cleaning his house in speed beyond Mach when Saori knocked on him and snubbing the movie 2 God Warriors (short as that was) disagree with that

So what power level is Jabu's squad at by now?

Are they at least silver tier?

>>146537902
BASED Kanon

>>146547052
Ikki's mind crush is Houou Genmaken
Saga's mind control is Genrou Maouken
Kanon here used Genrouken

>>146547304
in LC Pharao's heart rips wasn't fake

>>146548009

Looking at the pages of that fight, DM didn't got a single scratch from Seiya's punches, not even after the Rolling Crush.

i'm not saying Seiya wouldn't be able to actually beat him, but his awakening of the seventh sense is still one of a beginner

>>146548717
BWAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH!!!

Maybe Jab, but I wouldn't bet on it.

>>146548608
Yeah, not saying that the anime didn't have humor at all, but after the Sanctuary arc, that went away.

It's just personal preference, some would say that the anime is more emotional than the manga, but i just prefer the manga being the way it is.

>>146548717
They're actually pretty powerful. Of course nothing compared to important characters but they're not that weak either.

Jabu is the strongest of course

>>146549851
In a round-table from the Jump anthologies Koyama and Kurumada apparently "agree" the anime "couldn't" use humor, around the time Asgard went in production.

I disagree completely

Reminder that Zelos tanked Aurora Execution and survived.

>>146534911
Wait, "René"? i thought his name was "Lune" or "Rune"?

>>146551740
You can transcribe his katakana in all of these three ways, though if you're wondering what 'makes most sense' then it's probably Rune given he basically reads the inscription of the dead as his role

>>146549468
Jabu with Athena buffs might be able to pull something decent. Like, he already has the "never give up" profile necessary to perform miracles.

>>146552912
well, he was a good trainer for Souma...

If you go by Omega, he was pretty much Gold tier last time we saw him (defeated a 2nd class Pallasite boosted by a fragment of the strongest divine sword while using only a shitty Steel cloth).

In the actual manga at best he got to Silver Saint level, and that's basically speculation.

>>146553064
then again Omega is around 20 years from end of manga\anime

He's the only Secondary Bronze to get that strong, though.

i forgot rhadamanthys was voiced by koyasu in the OVA's, no wonder i thought he was such a dick

>>146553064
>In the actual manga at best he got to Silver Saint level, and that's basically speculation.


Not really, surviving Thanatos attacks is no small feat, at all.

>>146553290
Kiki survived one of these blasts pointblank too with no Cloth at all.

They were probably weakened because of how far they had to travel or whatever, but I don't think the blasts they tanked were very powerful.

>>146553362
Not when he was playing, but after that he got mildly serious and wanted to kill them because they dared to oppose him

>>146553426
And I don't think they get weakened, didn't he kill Pandora like that too?

I mean Elysion is billions of galaxies away but it doesn't mean much to him

>>146553461
People didn't even notice the first blasts when Seika began to feel ill, I think he can kill average humans from light years away but not much luck with ones who know how to manipulate cosmo.

Of course if he's near enough or if you're in his presence you're basically fucked.

>>146553461
>>146553552
It really bothers me characters in SS can move faster then light, hit stuff from light years away, and have moves that can supposedly shatter entire galaxies and simulate the big bang but there's never any more damage then a medium sized bomb going off, not even a nuke

>>146553552
Like I said he was playing around at first, he gets mildly serious after that and then he gets completely serious but Seiya kicks his ass before he can kill everyone.

Pandora is fucking powerful by the way, so he can kill people with cosmos or whatever.

>>146553647
>Pandora is fucking powerful by the way
She was granted some power by the twin gods but "fucking powerful" seems like a stretch

The one time she managed to get an ordinary stab on Ikki he was completely blindsided too

>>146553628
Why? saint seiya is not Dragon Ball, the very first chapter says that they focus on atoms, they repeat it again in sanctuary(camus and Hyoga) and Seiya repeats it again when he smashes the pilar. They repeat it all the fucking time.

No idea why it "bothers" you.

>>146553687
>but "fucking powerful" seems like a stretch

Not the anon you are quoting, but she is powerful enough to make Radamanthys be afraid of her.

>>146553985
Yeah I'm well aware of that scene, I don't see what are you trying to imply.

I think it's more likely she can fuck with Surplices with that harp or without it with whatever power the twin gods gave her more than anything. If she was so capable I'd think we'd have seen her do more than just bark orders most of the time.

>>146554056
It doesn't really matter where she gets that power from. She has it and uses it, and we see Rad getting blasted by it.

this volume was fun, thanks op

>>146554137
There's too little info to go off from and we don't know to which point can she even do anything, really. I don't think she's powerful or that she even has enough knowledge to tank blasts that kill someone like Kiki and the other bronze saints do by putting it barriers or anything.

We don't see her getting down and dirty and she clarifies she could only traverse through Elysium because of her necklace so it's not any stretch to think she has some boosts compared to a regular human but is pretty average otherwise.

And smashing atoms releases energy.

The amount of energy needed for the shit they do should set the entire atmosphere on fire if not just BTFO the planet and the whole solar system with it, yet there's hardly any damage to the surronings.

If you are going to outright say a character's move can tear planets apart, it should tear fucking planets apart.

>>146553838
The big band WAS a single point. That attack should engulf the entire observable universe in a malestrom of energy that it reduces everything to subatomic matter instantly.

Why not just say knights have the strength they actually demonstrate? Saying they are more powerful then they are shown to be serves no purpose.

>>146554689
>Applying real science to a manga about gods and saints

Fuck off retard, there's an in-universe explanation: "Saints focus on atoms of the things they want to destroy" and in-universe it works like that. Stop being retarded.

>Salty dragon ball fags are still at it 30 years later

Jesus.

You will literally never ever beat Saint Seiya or Sailor moon, their too fast, too haxxed and too powerful for DB.

>>146554794
But it's fucking pointless and retarded

If gold knights are only ever shown creating damage comparable to a bomb going off, why not just fucking say that.

Why give specifics if you aren't going to bother to actually meet it?
