Hello friends who like the anime "Saint Seiya" works! I am Maple Jun.
As we all know, in the work of the famous Japanese manga artist Masami Uchida, "Saint Seiya", the armor that appears in the early period includes the holy clothes, the scale clothes, and the original anime god fighting clothes, but it is difficult to see the armor equipped with "wings", of course, except for the Sagittarius holy clothes, one of the twelve golds, and a very small number of other armors. However, the plot developed to the beginning of the later "Pluto Chapter", and a large number of Pluto fighters more or less added "wings" decoration to their cloak design, satisfying the desire of the "holy fans" to increase the wings of the armor.
In fact, friends who like Saint Seiya know that the setting of armor to increase wings does not make the wearer have the ability to fly, most of it is just a decoration, just to make the armor look more "tall". Aeolos' Sagittarius Cloak is a good example, when Aeolos rescued Athena, who was still a baby, from the evil pope, if the winged Sagittarius Cloak had the ability to fly, he would not have to run all the way without leaving the Sacred Land and eventually died in the Sacred Domain.
However, in the later period of the Pluto chapter [Pure Land of Bliss], in addition to the author's addition of wings to most of the Dark Fighters' cloaks, the bronze sacred clothes of Hoshiya and others also began to undergo tremendous changes, becoming the first time that Athena's other sacred clothes after Sagittarius's golden sacred clothes created wings, which had to start from the plot after the twelve golden saints all gathered together to break the "wall of sighs" in the underworld.
The Pure Land of Bliss, created by Hades, is a world that only those who have been chosen by God can go after death. Therefore, after the Golden Saints broke the wall of sighs, what appeared in front of Hoshiya and others was not the Pure Land of Bliss, but the vast "super-dimensional space"--the tunnel of time and space distortion, and anything that violated god's intrusion into the super-dimensional space would be torn apart.
However, we know that the other four in the "Five Little Strong" are protected by the blood of the goddess Athena, except for the holy robe of the Phoenix Constellation, which is not contaminated with the blood of the goddess. Therefore, when Hoshiya and the others jumped into the super-dimensional space, they were not torn apart by it, but they could not advance to the entrance of the Pure Land of Bliss, as if they were stuck in the cosmic space. Helpless, the Pegasus Cloak suddenly grew a pair of wings to fly in the superdimensional space, according to Hoshiya's own explanation, "The Pegasus Cloak does have wings, and this ability is awakened by Athena's blood."
After defeating Minos, the triumvirate of the underworld, also awakened a pair of wings through the blood of the goddess, and also caught the purple dragon flying into the superdimensional space, and after the purple dragon asked the origin of its wings, the glacier explained that "this is the wings that Athena gave us through the Pure Land of Bliss".
However, when the later Phoenix Constellation Yihui wanted to go to the super-dimensional space, because it did not have the protection of the goddess's blood, but because the necklace given by Pandora could go anywhere in the underworld, Yihui could also pass through the super-dimensional space. However, Yihui also grew a pair of wings when passing through the super-dimensional space, and unlike the Star Arrow and the Glacier, he did not awaken with the help of the goddess's blood, but grew out on his own.
From the above description, it is not difficult to conclude that if the saint seiya reaches a certain level of strength, as long as the constellation has the ability to fly, it seems that he can awaken a pair of wings, but it is easier to achieve it through the blood of the goddess. In the later plot, we all know that the "Divine Cloak" of the five bronze sacred robes and the golden divine cloak forms in the "Golden Soul" are also winged, but we have no more evidence to prove that it can fly with wings, but it is applicable in the super-dimensional space of the underworld.
