Peru taking over gaf!

I always thought funny that the hispanic intro had footage from Saint Seiya movies, it even spoils Seiya getting the Sagittarius armor. :lol Not a single fuck was given by the people that edited that crap.
I remember that, I always wondered when could I watch that episode on tv, untill I realized I was being trolled and that was a movie and not part of the tv show

Yeah Milo/Red scarlet needle for the win ^^

mine as well, I remember debating on forums back in the the day that while he might not be the most powerful of the gold saints he still was the fastest one since his attacks relied on his physical speed, oh the memories...
 
Someone's looking hard to replace Dragon Ball games.

Welp, this will certainly be localized in Europe and nowhere else.

Who knows man, Fist of the North Star: Dynasty Warriors was released here and FotNS never even aired on TV here.

lol that fucking song

edit: that song aside, the original series had goddamn fantastic music.

The best music is the piano when some one is going to die. I used to go to ride my bike to my grandma's house every Saturday night to watch it. Hong Kong TV only show it after midnight at Saturday.
 
Best fight in the series :<

thats the intro I grew up with(without that guy in it).

Hyoga and ikki where the best
That's Bernard Minet, he was a big star of anime songs at the time.

I like Shun, always thought he had the coolest armor, with his chains.

OMG!!!!!! My brother is going to lose his shit at this news!! I NEED THIS.

I wonder if they're going to include Saints from The Lost Canvas.

And yeah, Milo is so fucking fierce and flawless <3 Scorpio FTW.

Most saints had serious mental problems... Shun with his brother, Hyoga and his iced mother, Shiryu with his automutilation problem, Ikky and his antisocial personality disorder and finally Seiya with his "hit me one more time" sadomasochistic complex... What a bunch of freaks ^^

I would say Shiryu had some stripper complex but that's just me. I always forget they're supposed to be 13 years old.

I thought he was a she...(before I watched the series)

edit: probably my first encounter with trap
 
jett said:
wut. pretty sure that's not right.
I'm pretty sure that's their age in the manga. And they never address that in the anime but when they talk about Saori being a baby they always say something about the events that happened "13 years ago" when Aioros saved her. It's been years since I read the manga or seen the anime though.

I don't think any anime character has got his ass beat as much as seiya, guy gets his shit kicked but keeps getting up, only to make a comeback with a 1 hit ko to the enemy.

Fights just started and Shiryu just can't keep his armor on.I don't even why bothers to wear armor in first place if his just going to take it off.

Bah, shitty Europop song.
Everybody knows the definitive version is: I CAVALIERI DELLO ZODIACO from Italy!

First storic intro:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pi4RRiqRaj0
(Well, it's a weak song, but incidentally this gave the occidental name of "Zodiac's Knight" to the serie)

Second intro:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEwQ8it6tSA

Third (well, this was used when the series were rebroadcasted by Berlusconi's channels, so it' s basically a new first) intro:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LL8btCvA8Lg

On the same stations, some episodes were broadcasted with a shitty cover of Pegasus Fantasy:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJZKpEPbzLY

and last but not least, the intro from the series of Hades:

So Narutesque!
 
"Tal vez estés preparado para morir peleando con Abel, pero como ya renunciaste a la idea de ganar antes de empezar, eso equivale a perder sin pelear. Yo jamás le temería al cosmo de un perdedor tan grande como tu."

Saga 4 life!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Ha ha, amazing that people here like Saint Seiya. Pretty cool series. Read the manga when I was young. Never watched the anime.
 
Ok I'm looking at the scans, it is Saint Seiya Musou. The bronze saints are all using their original cloths, the Taurus gold saint is shown too. Like I said, this game is an obvious reponse to the success of the Fist of the North Star Musou game.

I don't know why it's a big deal whether or not they are 13..Unless jett rubbed one out to a drawing of andromeda shun..

are you trying to outcreep icecream? :P

they just don't look or behave like 13 year olds at all, maybe in the manga i guess, they all look the same there anyway.

Fixed with a more appropriate image

what have i done
 
Shaka de Virgo >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Ikki de FEnix >>>> Shiryu >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Seiya.

COME AT ME BRO!
Caballeros del Zodiaco was mad crazy here in Argentina. (And i guess in all of Latin America)
 
i checked the sale of this series on PS2 and first week numbers were around 80k.. so is it going to increase or decrease after almost 6 yrs of gap.
 
Oh man, the intro to the latinamerican aime having that hilarious spaniard song was the very best thing about saint seiya.

Sad to see this is more musou crap. Oh well.

"LA CANCION DE LOS HEROES"
When i was a kid i sung it: 'LA CANCION DE LOS ERRORES" ;-D
 
Dizzy-4U said:
Wait.....it didn't say "errores"?

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF, my life is a lie.
It will always be "errores" on our corazones.

I used to play Caballeros del zodiaco with my friends (We fought) and no one wanted to be Andromeda. (I was Shiryu)

Every fighting game fan should watch Saint Seiya- as I think it was a real influence on the design of the genre. Kayane was a huge fan of it as a little girl also. That said, ironically, it also was a big influence in the development of yaoi.

That said, Saint Seiya is as Mexican as KOF and luchadores.

los guardianes del uuuniverso, al triunfar el mal

caaaaballeros del zodiaaaco

fucking OG shit right there along with Ranma 1 1/2. Even before DB. God damn I was so jealous of my cousins who had a figure of Seiya in his golden cloth

e- oh I see someone had already started singing the intro hahaha

Fuck this just got me on a Saint Seiya kick. I had no idea the series had so much material.

Anyone care to recommend something for someone whose last experience with SS was in the early 90s? I watched all of the anime and I watched the Hades movie but I barely remember any of the movie.

Don't know how well the anime has aged so I dunno if I should give that a try.


Fuck it. I'm gonna rewatch the whole damn thing. TV + all the OVAs and Movies. Fillers and all.

Watch the Hades saga, the best one by far. I haven't read either Episode G or Lost Canvas (there's an anime for Lost Canvas too, but it's not finished yet afaik), but I've heard that they're miles better than anything written by Kurumada himself. After all, Kurumada at his best was very mediocre. The original manga has aged horribly. Yet I have all the tankoubons :)

The anime probably has one of the best OSTs from anime history. Listen to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ww6Fe2w9kU
 
This thread made me nostalgic for the original Saint Seiya figures. I remember my childhood friend had a huge collection of these things and with ridiculous points of articulation and all the armor parts (10+ for each figure) being diecast metal (The feet on the figures were diecast metal as well). The ones I saw recently weren't anything close to what the original figures were (completely plastic and flimsy).

Well, it's pretty well known that France has the most dedicated Saint Seiya fans in the world. I remember that Hades animation they did decades ago. So much hype.

I think they also did an RPG...Those people are mad crazy about Saint Seiya.
 
+1 for Shun being the best saint !
Specialy when he fights without his armor

Old animes are a very unexplored genre of franchises that need new games ... except for dbz, of course =P

This, Cowboy Beboop, Furikuri, Yu Yu Hakusho, Sailor Moon, Rurouni Kenshin, Ranma, Rayearth (nothing against the saturn one), Sakura CardCaptors .....

They all have potential for really awesome cell shaded games !

Wich reminds me ... hope this one is cell shaded =3

Kurtofan said:

On a more serious note, the best version is this one made by the Angra singer !

It made for the brazilian rerun in 2006. In the first aired version it was something closer to the spanish opening

There're so many things they could do with those series, Saint Seiya could make good rpgs too! Anyone seen this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEgsW1OowI4

Seems like some people were making an rpg but the project is in hiatus, looked pretty cool :o
