Good Friday :D

Holiday ^.^

But it feels like any other day V.V

Okay... I slacked at home, slept for 12 hours and do basically nothing when my project is still waiting for me to complete it, and with exams looming overhead telling me to study.

Damn...

Need to start the engine soon or might end up a tragedy next sem again T.T

Oh yea, watched Saint Seiya The Lost Canvas AGAIN too (urghhhhhhhhh I know I shouldn't but I really really wanted to, and if I don't satisfy my urge to watch it I can't do anything else without thinking about it all the time.)

But it's like my 5th time watching it. Though, I did pick only the episodes where my favorite character Alone

*(Aaron? Alone is how it sound when his name is pronounced in Japanese, but as we all know, Japanese pronunciation of English name mangles it up totally)

appeared in to watch, and that's like 4/5 almost-full episodes and about 3 other where he only appeared for about 1 minute.

So I suppose it could be worse? (Like my fixation on Gundam Seed and Destiny during my poly days, consisting of 50 episodes EACH and about 75% full of Kira)

And The Lost Canvas is sooooo good too, compare to its original series (I'm biased yes) with its amazing art (the original too old school for me) and with (in my opinion) the best characters that are not the main.

For example, Alone. He makes the best Hades EVER, and even though I did not really watch/read the original series, (I was quite tempted to once when I had nothing to do, and was bursting with curiosity of truly getting an understanding of Saint Seiya's background info, though it died 1 minute into the opening song when the art put me off again) I went and watched the youtube clips of the part where Hades appeared in the original series.

I mean, Alone is soooo amazing to be able to take control and suppress Hades (all by himself), while pretending to be Hades and is able to pass off as him while having almost full control over Hades' power to use it as if its his own, as a human (and one-upped a deity).

He looks the most regal as well :P

He was so sweet as himself before the Hades thing, and the way that he truly loves all the humans and wants to save them (albeit in the so-call 'wrong' way) proves that he's really selfless and pure too.

(On the other hand, I don't really see how Shun is pure, except maybe in his friendship to the main characters and the loyalty to Athena?? Which, btw, in my opinion, he can't beat the main character in, because the main character will always be the 'most' loyal as its the rule lol)

Even one of the Gold Saint (top fighter for Athena) commented that Alone's love for humanity is immense and deep.

He truly belief that he's doing the right thing, (his intention is right, in any case) but its mainly due to him being brainwashed into thinking that death is salvation (well, it was slightly justified in the series such that it was not totally wrong, but, you know the rule how the main character's way of doing things is the correct one, and anyone else who is doing it differently is wrong, cuz, you know, main characters CAN'T be wrong?)

And of course, KAGAHO.

How can someone be so sexy (voice, looks, personality everything) XD

Many people commented that he's the previous incarnation of Ikki, one of the main characters in the original Saint Seiya (but the original one's drawing sucks, so that guy look ugly and can't compare to my Kagaho) and I admit from what I read about Ikki in Wikipedia, they do sound similar enough.

Except Kagaho is wayyyyy cooler, being a Specter instead of a Saint, which means he could do as he please without truly giving a heck about the rules and regulation one has to have when they are the 'good guys'. He's more free and wild, in any rate :P (I mean, no matter how rogue as a Saint, he needa listen to Athena and abide to the basic 'save the world, save the innocent bystander, and no killing' rules)

His loyalty to Alone (and not Hades) and the fact that he knew it was Alone all the while and not really Hades (which should by right be his true master) but don't give a heck anyway is cool too ~ 8D

Alone + Kagaho, what else can I ask for???! (coughHypnoscoughThanatoscough)

Oh, and I guess that the main character is not as dumb/stubborn/useless in the beginning as all main characters tend to be helps too.

Although it is a bit annoying how he keep saying he want to punch Alone back into his sense when he is talking to the real Hades (and therefore no amount of punching would bring Alone back into his senses seeing that its not him at all) without getting it into his head that its not Alone he is talking to despite being told several times by Hades himself.

His name is more suiting too hahaha. Tenma, literally Pegasus and being the Pegasus Saint.

Cait Sith Cheshire is cute too (: although he only appear like a few minutes/a few pages worth in the entire series, I love how he isn't aggressive at all and can even travel together with Athena lol

Mephistopheles Youma is an amazing character too, and extremely cool, being the main character's dad, an antagonist, and the real mastermind behind the entire series all at the same time.
