Second part!!!

Va falloir que l'auteur trouve rapidement un moyen d'occuper Poséidon ou de le mettre hors-jeu ou de lui coller un power down (via son hôte), histoire de pas avoir une carte joker d'entrée dans son groupe

In theory he's done yet.
Poseidon is still sealed in his vase.

He can have temporary control over Julian's body, so he can bestow the mission on his generals.

We have seen that he can move/teleport his trident (the same as he did with gold cloth in Elysium), but surely he wouldn't be able to throw it at maximum divine power against the goddess.

But his marina can use it, which is why Hades removed the seal on the trident, only that.

My guess, anyway. We'll see in the next chapter.

when Alquie was quickly flipping through the book during an interview, I had noticed for one frame DM hitting a light-haired dude, but I thought it was Arctos or another Cronos henchman!!!
Crazy!

The script of Dollen is very solid so far. Very good!

The new silver is cool, but unfortunately it breaks the special number of 24 in the mangaverse 
Classic 16 + 1 ND + 2 LC + 1 EpG + 4 Saintia


Is that a gold box in that picture?

Spoiler

Uhmmm.....

Os Cavaleiros do zodiaco group asked the director Y. Ashino about the city in Shaun and Ikki's flashback, because the car's plate we see in one scene looks familiar to ones we have here.

"Nós usamos como referência a Cidade de Velha Nice, na França. Mas essa cena é uma cidade em algum lugar no Mar Mediterrâneo.
Ainda não finalizamos as cidades."

We can conclude Andromeda Island is somewhere near Corsica.
And Death Queen Island is Stromboli.

I can't wait for the interaction beetween Kiki and Isaak 

or, most probably, the third season of TLC anime incoming... 

I mean, a collection of one shots.
I was speculating there will be at least one for saintia, since we had two, focusing on Shoko, Mii.

Elda 's one should be what she was doing when she arrived late at the Accademy destroyed by Deathmask.

Katja I hope to know more about her parents, cos it one of the few saint in the franchise to have parents alive. I'd like to know what make them to send their two daughter to train as a fighter.

Xiao... I dunno 

Kuori in her twitter wrote this about the recent Champion Red:

今月のREDは星矢の派生が４作品も...！
LCとセインティアの広告も入ってるから実質６つ（?）

Le RED de ce mois-ci propose 4 œuvres dérivées de Seiya...!
Les publicités LC et Saintia sont également incluses, il y a donc en fait 6 (?)

Does this mean there will be a new gaiden for Lost Canvas soon?

And chapéu to Sergorn, it looks the new account for the author of Rerise is real.

the author posted a reply for a comment of a Japanese who find a big error of continuity in the manga.
He notices in the skyline of Shangai were a meteor's falling, there's towers that were made after 1990, the year Elysium ad ND are set, so RoP.

Notably the Shanghai World Financial Center completed only in 2008!!
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shanghai_World_Financial_Center

Tsunakan relpied witty with a picture of Nemesis apologizing for having traveled in time 

https://twitter.com/tunakansuda/status/1570927700583514112

Will the reborn Marina defeat this menace in only 18 years?
It's seems doable 

Well, we'll see about that.

Anyway

yeeess, Marina General in surplice!
Kurumada promised that to Dorothèe

  that account looks fake.
I mean, no info in the bio for self promotion, doesn't follow Akita Shoten account for retweeting, account opened not a month ago, not the release date of Champion Red, but convently the day of spoiler...
Temple of Poseidon photo from Google map?

What's that joke about tuna can???? or it's just google translator goes crazy?
And the joke about Hyoga and Ikki ?

https://www.twitter.com/XITHEFROG/status/1570349818039652354

It 'd be' nice  if the article apprises in Lost Canvas the berserk are written   狂戦士 whereas in Saintia  狂闘士

https://mobile.twitter.com/teshi_kuro413/status/1536914048205443073

At the end of the tankobon Deimos confirms Eris gave them a temporary body, with limited powers, so it's a situation like Shion & co in Hades Junikyu.
They were saint (berserker) 
They 're "resurrectet saint" (phantom)
But they aren't Hades' specter (dryads)
Shion & Co wear a surplice but, Phantom have Armour , which 'd be their original one.

Problem is Harmonia shoudn't be a Phantom herself, as it's shown at the end of the manga she is the same since the myth era of Gods.



The use of Lemur was excellent for me. One of the best thing of this manga, it totally justifies the introduction of Ares in the plot.

She took the element introduced by Kurumada, which many detested, and developed it in the direction it was originally meant to be, a piece of Saga's being, the evil one.

LemurAres in volume 15 tells Saori he has always felt stranger and rejected by Saga : WHO ARE YOU?
He achieves all his goal, Athena killed, gains divine power the other gold can't move a finger, becomes finally the ruler of the earth.
But a true Goddess is still above.

Final redemption doesn't seem imho too cheesy or 180°degree, because it's well outspread by DM,Aphro : for someone who believed that power =justice and right to rule
that person is Saori in that moment, she finally proves she's worthy

This  leads to reconciliation with real Saga, who recognize Lemur as part of him, after all.

To me it's the best epilogue. Very smart by the author Kuori.
Maybe it's not so original, because under the layer you can see it's the story of Abel and Kain in ND.

But it always feels to me Kurumada reversed the story of the two Gemini, it 'd have been Kain with a Lemur, and Saga with another personality to surface, and Kuori fixed this, with a better staging.

 

There's in the manga. The difference with anime is you don't see Cassios beat the two bronze.
Actually it's implied by what Shiryu says when arrived in Leo temple Cassios asked them to enter alone in the temple to resolve the situation.

In KOTZ they're still in time to make him tell this story.

 It may take a while....
since I can see a pattern here. 
First memories was focused on Shoko; the second Mii ...
Xiao, Katja, Elda... and you have a complete volume. 

Kuori in her tumblr wrote:
I'm planning to draw some stories that I couldn't draw in the serialization, and it's a one-shot series with a different atmosphere from the Saintia main story.

Originally, I was hoping and planning to serialize it on the web=Manga Cross, but due to various circumstances, it was published in RED.



It turned out this second story explain and develop a page from the 6th volume, during the battle with Emony, that I had completely forgotten, and thought originally it was a dream/a vision of injured Mii.
It was a flashback!

If this is the tone, I'd like to know more about Katja and Mariya 's parents and why they sent the daughters to the Accademy.
Elda meeting Mito.
Xiaoling ...

Kyoko: Yes... That's when I realized
Kyoko: we have to fight the evil in the name of justice.
Kyoko: That's why I'm determined to fight in the name of Athena
Mii: .............
Saori: What determination!

Saori: Despite saying they'll fight for the Earth,
Saori: most Academy students aren't too convinced.
Saori: Because I don't even have power myself yet.
Mii:     Miss Saori...

"Maybe none is by your side..."

Mii: ........

Mii:      it was thanks you
Mii:     Somebody like you deserves to serve Miss Saori
Mii:     you are always a good example

Mii:   I felt a twinge of envy.
Mii:   But the admiration was greater
Mii:   Kyoko guided me to an elevated position

Kyoko: ..... do I?
Kyoko: I think you fit more than me to be Saintia


P11

Mii:      No way...
Kyoko: Hey, Mii...
Kyoko: I think I'm thinking about quitting
Mii:      You what...?
Mii:      ...so sudden....
Mii:      leave the Academy......?
Kyoko: I want to learn from the saint outside
Kyoko: to become stronger in the fight
Mii:      .........!?
Mii:      Contacting saint outside the Academy...!?
Mii:      It's dangerous!
Kyoko: ... Mii



P12

Kyoko: I know
Kyoko: If my sister will be in danger again
Kyoko: I still couldn't help her as a saint
Kyoko: Even if I'm suitable as saintia... it won't be enough.
Mii:      Are you serious...?
Mii:     Almost all saint from Knights obey the "Pope courant de charge"
Mii:    most of them
Mii:   I won't forgive you.

Mii: Have you considere how Miss Saori'd feel?
     She trusts you

Kyoko: I'm not leaving the Academy
Mii:      really...?


P25

Kyoko: After you raged... I talked to the goddess Athena

Kyoko: I'm not qualified to be by your side
Kyoko: I... realized I wanted to have power just to protect Shoko
Kyoko: If Miss and Shoko are in danger at the same time
Kyoko: I would prefer Shoko
Kyoko: And that's unacceptable
Saori: ...Power can't protect everything
Saori: A person like you, capable of giving his life to save someone
Saori: It is fundamental in the fight for justice
Saori: That's why 

P26

Saori: you don't need to protect me before your sister.
Saori: At such a moment I hope I can protect you two!

Kyoko: You and Athena showed me it isn't power, but the feeling for important people
Kyoko: which is able to mae miracles


P27

Kyoko: Mii... you, without a doubt,
Kyoko: are worth to be a Saintia
Students: Look...
Students: The goddess Athena is leaving

16 chapters left!! 

16 years since pubblication
16 volumes

Preview pictures at Cavzodiaco.com

https://www.cavzodiaco.com.br/noticia/30/08/2022/saintia-sho-memories-confira-fotos-do-segundo-capitulo-do-novo-manga

Like the first chapter, it talks about the relationship between Mii and Kyoko.
But it's a whole flashback, that starts with  their arrival at the accademy as newbie students and ends with they  leaving for Japan (the start of Saintia Sho)

Notably in a panel we finally see Mania in the face (who became a dryad)

Kyoko wanted to quit as a saintia.

Another evil spirits attacking the school, likely the first time Saori use her divine power.

The new set of cards is out.
You can tale a look here
http://dannyseiya.blogspot.com/2022/08/q-saint-paradise.html?m=1

It's nice they replaced the generic hoplite helmet with personalized logos holografic.

I can see for silvers they used the cloth object from kurumanga (notably inconsistencies with Albione and Shaina).
New custom object for Eris' Ghost saint.
viewfinder for the Steel saint, a snowflake for Crystal s.

But what's that for Geist's ghost saint???
A bird? 

Friendly reminder: we had seen yet the people floating in other dimension and pick up back, as a means of transfer
In saintia sho from japan > Athena's temple > Japan
or if you prefer ND : virgo temple>athena's statue

ND explains athena's barrier is low due to her absence/weakness

C'est rare un shishiki aussi abouti 

more than the previuos one for the 18th anniversary, which was  auctioned at Mandarake for 290.000 yen ?!?

[après]

En fait apparemment ça ne se passe pas après Hadès mais en parallèle.
En gros pendant que les Saints ont disparu (comprenez sont aux Enfers) une menace arrive blabla....donc l'histoire apparemment se déroulerait en parallèle de la story avec Hadès.

The problem is this story 'd start super inchoerente with Kurumanga where Sorrento during Elysium is surprised to see his lord awanakened.
It can't have happened few time before.

  Wow! Saint Seiya Rerise of Poseidon is kinda parallel work to Next Dimension: 

The Saints disappear in the battle with Hades, the Underworld King, and a new enemy approaches the ground. Sea Emperor Poseidon wakes up in that crisis!!
