SS Rant

Yes. I just have to publish my rant here too. Those who doesn't want to see it can close your eyes and skip over it.

==========================

Hello Saint Seiya fandom!

Let me ask you one question:

Do you like Saint Seiya: Meiou Shinwa or better known as Saint Seiya: the Lost Canvas?

You do? Well, I do, too.

I mean, duuuuudee.

Teshirogi sure can draw! And think of good plot-... nah who are we kidding. She's like, Queen of Angst! She loves drawing handsome men angsting over things like family, siblings, friends, etc

And there's the anime, where the characters are all moving in good color and graphic and awww we're all cheering for it because it's so promising and attracting new fans because of the goodness and we're all disappointed when it stopped airing for God knows why.

Yeah, yeah, SSLC is really good. I love it. You love it. We all love it.

But, DUUUUUUUUUDEEEE.

Saint Seiya Classic, Next Dimension, Episode G, and Omega don't lose to LC in terms of coolness, you know.

I mean, okay they have their own weaknesses like the manga version of Classic and ND is unappealing because it's drawn in the old generation manga style that Kurumada continues to use. Episode G is more or less the same. Omega is directed by an anime director who produced a successful battle maiden anime series.

BUT DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDDDDEEEEE.

Stop it with OVERSHIPPING LC, won't you?

Like, there are those who think that it would be better if LC is redrawn by Teshirogi. Even though the idea is very attractive to me too, try to think about it.

Kurumada Masami was the one who gave birth to the series we came to love: Saint Seiya.

His brain gave birth to the idea of hot young men wearing shiny, heavy-looking armors that are based on constellations, relate Greek mythical stuffs with his own imagination, have those warriors fight evils, etc etc etc

WITHOUT him manifesting his ideas in the form of Saint Seiya, Teshirogi WILL NOT have ideas on making spin-off out of it. Neither does Okada.

SO.

Stop overshipping LC. Appreciate Classic more.

In fact, I think Japanese fans worship Classic more than they worship LC. Something about LC felt unoriginal because the characters basically are clones to the Classic ones. If I were to speak my opinion, it does give off that kind of vibe: LC is like a doujin... a fan manga of Saint Seiya.

Once again.

Stop overshipping LC. Appreciate Classic more. Give some love to ND and Episode G. Reduce the amount of 'boos' when it comes to Omega.

Each of them have their pluses and minuses.

If you say that you're a true fan of SS, then try to appreciate them and their respective creators, even if it's just a little bit.
