Saint Seiya : The Lost Canvas



THE SUMMARY

The Lost Canvas unfolds the story of the previous Holy War, taking place in the 18th century, 250 years before the original series, in the Saint Seiya universe.

During the Holy War, Athena's Saints fights against the Specters from Hades. One day, Gold Saint Libra Dohko is impressed by Tenma 's ability to use the cosmos when Dohko finds him, he asks Tenma to attend the Sanctuary in Greece to become Athena's Saint.

There, he finds Sasha who is revealed to be Athena's reincarnation. She is also Alone's sister and Tenma's childhood friend from an orphanage from Italy. By that time he meets her, he fails to protect Sasha from Worm Raimi and it causes him to become more determined. As promised, he become Pegasus Bronze Saint after only 2 years.


During the next two years while Tenma is away for the Holy War, Alone encounters Pandora who recognizes him as Hades's reincarnation. Upon discovering who he is under the influence of Hypnos and Pandora, he is ready to gather his Specters and starts launching the war against Athena. His identity is soon discovered by Tenma and Sasha.

What will happen upon their discovery on Hades's identity? Sasha who wishes to live with Tenma and Alone again like the time they were in the orphanage... Tenma who wishes to save Alone, even if he must injure him for that.

Remember I wrote about the original Saint Seiya in very first previous entry? Here's another sequel to the original one...Ooops, I should say it is pre-sequel as it happened 25o years ago before the original one. So, mostly of the characters in the original Saint Seiya are the reincarnation from The Lost Canvas. Plus there are many new characters are introduced such like Crane Yuzuriha, Altar Hakurei (Elder Jamir) and some from Hades's.

I really pity on those characters - Tenma, Alone and Sasha. Unlike the original Saint Saint, Sasha, Alone and Tenma had a special bond. Sasha is the sister to Alone while Tenma and Alone are best friends. But Alone eventually become Hades, their arch-enemy. Sure they are suffering because they have to fight against Hades in order to protect their world but in their heart, they are resistant to do so.

Alright, that would be enough for a review. Go to OneManga : Saint Seiya : The Lost Canvas or MangaFox : Saint Seiya : The Lost Canvas to read for your own evaluation. =P
