He was ok

But are you ok user?

Yes he was. His haters overblown his flaws and even invent new ones

This, he wasn't anything special, but he got the job done.
If you think about Seiya and a bunch of other unremarkable shounen protags, they all blur together.

no i'm not

He was kinda cool at the beginning of the series, when he was basically a Joe Yabuki clone, a punk followed by a bunch of orphans who begrudgingly worked for a rich bitch in exchange of information about his sister.
His later development into a brainless zealot who wins by plot armor is pretty cringe...

>who wins by plot armor
That's a shounen typical user. All shounen usually have it

He killed his enemies, something almost nonexistent now.

Tanjirou also kills his enemies

Maybe that's the real mark of success

He is rocking that silly helmet like a chad

when Jesus Barrero voices him he's fucking great

This. I know Saint Seiya was made just to sell toys, but I wish they had eventually have the saints, or at least Seiya, show piousness when it come to her treatment of Saori. As in, I don't think they portray the "Gods" as adored as they should be considering their power levels. I think Tenkai Hen did a good job, but Kurumada got extremely salty when Toei changed the script and then went insane and made garbage like Next Dimension.

>tfw CHADoei knows Saint Seiya better than KuruHACKa

In how many years hasn't that happened

This.

He was ok.

Seiya's pretty solid. Omega made me love him, but I liked it whenever he was more of an ass to Saori. Their banter was more fun compared to the lovey-dovey eyes that they give each other now.

You misunderstood. The original Tenkai Hen Overture was better. Only after that is that Kurumada started making bad decisions with the manga. Toei screwed him so bad that he felt his already completed vision for the future of the series had to be changed just so that he could feel Toei "had no influence" on it. Everything that is objectionable about the Saint Seiya franchise after the Hades: Sanctuary OVAs is 99.99% Toei's fault one way or the other.

>Praising Toei and saying that it knows Saint Seiya better than the original author.
>The same Toei that made the snorefest known as Tenkai-hen Overture that almost killed the franchise.
Lmao
The absolute state of these shills.

Mexico and Brazil can access the Internet now

>snorefest known as Tenkai-hen Overture
It was still kino though. And I didn't praise Toei, I guess you misunderstood as well.

Nah, he’s the most boring saint IMO.
Shiryu always took off his shirt and lost his sight, that was pretty cool.
Hyoga was a whiny momma’s boy who learned to man the fuck up.
Shun was gay but fujoshi love him.
Ikki was an edgelord but angsty teenagers love him.

Manga version A.K.A. the original Seiya was still a punk till the end of the series. Also he never stopped looking for Seika.

Chapter Heaven was absolutely based. Japs just hate Saint Seiya.

He was a product of his time OP

It does. The manga has ZERO fight choreography and next to no downtime to flesh out characters. The CHADnime always wins.

Seiya was something.
He is the most boring of the main cast though

He helped estabilish the archetype of determined protagonists that always lifted themselves when pushed down. I think he did well, he wasn't as merciful as his friends, but wasn't as merciless as Ikki either, he struck the right balance, has smarts when needed and killed when needed as well.

He has a good harem and bleeds like a giant mosquito getting flatened every figth so he is good
