Saint Seiya/Knights of the Zodiac

[ParaParaJMo]

I though the original was set in the late 80's, but if it was in 1991, then it reinforces my point, to fall into continuity, Episode G should have been set in the mid 80's.

That said, it's timeline is not the only thing that prevents Episode G from being considered canon...

According to next dimension, written by kuruada himself, te origial nga took place in 1991. But anyway, shuura was pretty bad ass in episode g

Lost canvas is a good story itself but sadly nit canon

I wish it were... I love Kurumada and his work, but for one, Lost Canvas is actually finished (except for the gaidens), and its version of the Cancer Saint and Pisces Saint are leagues and bounds better than the originals and (from first impressions) the ND versions.

Really, the only thing ND has over LC (authors asides) is that it actually servers to continue the original story and it canonized Touma.

All the LC Gold Saints are pretty epic... Except for Aspros...

Ya know what would've been nice about Knights of the Zodiac. If some of the knights were female.

Ex.
- Andromeda
- Lacerta
- Virgo
- Pisces

Saint Seiya has always been an "interesting" series

It's like if Hokuto no Ken/Fist Of The North Star and Yoroiden Samurai Troopers/Ronin Warriors (which is also heavily inspired by Sentai) had a bastard child out of wedlock

Except that Saint Seiya came out 2 years before Ronin Warriors.
