Saint Seiya: The Hades Chapter - Elysion · review

★

6 /10

The actual conclusion, the final clash, which leaves in some respects a feeling of disappointment. *SPOILER* After the sacrifice of the golden knights and the destruction of the wall, the protagonists set off (for the umpteenth time) to rescue Athena, in the Elysium. The clashes with the last specters quickly end, and there is a good flashback with Pandora (perhaps the only good thing about this final piece). The battle is in the Elysium, against the gods, Hades and two of his followers, Hypnos and Thanathos, obviously much stronger than the protagonists. Here we have gods, very powerful beings, who can't kill 5 kids (because the protagonists can'tdie at any cost), and not even marginal characters left on Earth, ridiculous. We then have Poseidon who, after having sworn revenge before being sealed, suddenly becomes good and helps the protagonists, sending the golden armors. Gold armors that will be destroyed in 2 seconds by Thanathos, yeah. Then Seiya, and following his friends, make yet another senseless miracle, divine armors, and defeat the twin gods easily. Clash with Hades, the final boss, fast, fight dominated by him, until "the power of love" arrives. THE END.

Besides being totally devoid of logic and disappointing as a final, it leaves the impression of a hasty closure.

Without mentioning, Seiya's sister. It was one of the main themes for the protagonists, ended up on the third floor, although during the series many clues were launched towards Marin, the Pegasus teacher. But no, Seiya's sister is found at random, and they don't even meet. A "mystery" solved at random.

The only nice thing about the Elysium would be that Seiya dies, but unfortunately this fact was changed by the author about 15 years after the end of the manga (first with the movie Tenkai-Hen, and later with Next Dimension).
