In the world of the anime "Saint Seiya", the underworld ruled by Hades is the worst enemy of Athena and the Sanctuary. Since the Age of Mythology, the Sanctuary and the Underworld have been torn apart, and then the two sides have fought every 243 years, but each time the victorious side is the Sanctuary. There was a gap of 243 years between the two wars between LC and SS, but the Sanctuary also won the victory, but the situation of the Sanctuary was completely different in the two eras, especially during the SS period, the Pope of the Sanctuary died, and the gold was also lost in half, which was far worse than the LC period.
During the LC period, the lineup on the Sanctuary side was much more luxurious than in the SS era. In the LC era, Pope Sage was alive, and the altar seat white ceremony had also reached the level of the Pope, and at the same time, except for the young Shi Ang and Tong Hu, the other 10 golds were all outstanding, and even the aquatic duo could wrestle with the Big Three. In addition, the last generation of golden warrior Elcid can hack to death the second-level god Four Oneiroi, Sage and Bai Li can seal the dead sleeping gods, and the little lion can open Athena's exclamation alone. It can be seen that it is reasonable for the Sanctuary in the LC period to win.
But the SS period was not as lucky as the previous generation. Since the blackening of Sachar, the Sanctuary has been constantly losing its living power. Sachar blackened, Pope Shion was killed, Sagittarius gold warrior Aiolos died tragically, a large amount of silver died in the hands of Seiya and others because of believing in the fake pope, and then the two of them, Shura, and Ka Miao also died. After killing a wave of warriors in the pit, Saga also cut himself, and the silver in the Sanctuary was almost lost, and only Tong Hu, Shajia, Xiao Ai, Mu, Miro, and Niu Ge were left in gold, and the bronze was only 5 small strong and 5 small weak.
By the time Hades and the 108 Hades Warriors awakened, the Sanctuary could only respond with remnants. In addition, Sachar, Shion, and Da Ai are all dead, and the Holy Realm is not commanded by the Pope, but the underworld side has a full lineup, but the underworld is still defeated by the Sanctuary. So why can't the underworld even beat the remnant array of the Holy Realm this time? In fact, the main gap is still in Seiya, Zilong, Binghe, Instant, and Yihui. Because Seiya and others of this generation have reached the point of incomprehension, they are more powerful than gods, which is something that the underworld can't imagine.
I have to say that Masami Cheda is too partial to Seiya and other bronze protagonists, because these 5 people have the privilege of killing gods. During the LC period, no matter how strong Saiqi and Bai Li were, they only managed to seal the gods, but in the SS era, Seiya, these bronze powerhouses, were very discouraged in martial arts, and they could be killed directly when they met a god. The two gods of death and sleep were all solved by Seiya, which was something that the previous generation of gold could not do. Even if half of the gold is gone, with the existence of these 5 open-hangers, the underworld can only be abused.
On the other hand, the previous generation of gold also paved the way for the Saint Seiya of the SS period. In the past, the Hades Fighter could be resurrected indefinitely, but later Ashmida sacrificed himself to seal the privilege of the opponent's infinite resurrection, and Tong Hu also used his previous experience in the great battles of this generation, such as the comprehension of the eighth sense. Because of this, Seiya and the others were able to fight all the way to the divine realm and finally solve Hades. It is worth mentioning that in fact, most people prefer to see the figure of the golden warrior, and Seiya has also aroused everyone's disgust, but the author Che Tian did not comply with public opinion, and wrote the gold to death, which is a special pity.
