Tenma bitches about wanting to save Alone, convinces his friends to take some sort of initiative towards it and is largely unprepared for it.Every arc in LC is the goddamn same to the point you can bullet it down like this: The Great Lost Canvas Pattern!! The death of each Gold Saint ends up becoming less a tragedy and more of a planned expectation. Saint Seiya, the Lost Canvas, is a story that has the uncanny ability to irritate the eff out of you overtime by endlessly going through these cycles of Gold Saint fanservice specifically designed to appeal to stereotypical fans.Īs a result, the story's many moments and characters end up blending together in your mind in this mish-mash blob of gold armor parts, blood and homoerotic tension, especially as you make past chapter 200 or so. LC is a manga where the drive of the characters is always coming from this assumed set of immutable principles in all of them that has nothing to do with their character, but more to do with what the audience wants to see out of Gold Saints just for the sake of it (knight drama, tears, good looks, shiny armors, lots of speeches about Athena and Sanctuary, inconsistent loyalties, blah, blah, blah). It just fails at it cause it doesn't know how to.
LC is in fact trying to be one of the most introspective spin offs. I also don't mean it's dumber than classic SS or G. First of all, I don't mean this in a kindergarten way as in "lol, this manga suxs", I mean that it's dumb in an emotional way. Okay, before we move on, let's make a couple of things clear about what I said. However, in retrospective, my opinion of it has dropped considerably. She was truly focused on the mission to depict the 18th century HW as best as she could. It also had a really interesting gothic interpretation of the Specters of Hades that showed Shiori knew her stuff and loved the characters. arcs and a focus on Gold Saints and their background and good art. This spawned the LC Gold Saints and the LC Holy War.Īt the time of its release, Lost Canvas was really something groundbreaking for Saint Seiya (take note that I do mean just Saint Seiya, and not mangas in general), cause it had things like. The story goes that Shiori was originally drafted to make her own interpretation of how Sasha, Tenma and Alone met, a companion story to the ongoing 1st volume of Next Dimension, but her art and work were so well received that she was given greenlight to make her own manga. I used to really like it, but I have to say that over the years it's aged poorly for me. Lost Canvas is kind of a fan manga that got out of control.
