Reviews
Esta review también está en español. Ok, since I believe is blasphemy that Saint Seiya doesn't have the propers reviews it deserve, here I am... Shonens tend to be long. And in that time, movies are made. Almost every time, not very good. Saint Seiya is not the exception, but in general, they're fine. The first one was: Saint Seiya: The Battle with Eris or Saint Seiya: The Legend of the Golden Apple. Story: The bronze saints are visiting Seiya's orphanage (Ikki don't, cause he's way too cool for stuff like that). There, besides Miho (Seiya's friend) and the orphans, they find Elli (or Ellien, like it saysin this page synopsis) a girl that, apparently, work there. Then, cause destiny said so, a huge meteor land in the Earth. In said meteor, rest Eris's spirit (inside a golden apple, actually). You don't need to be Sherlock Holmes to know what happened: the apple posses Elli, and the goddess of discord is back in the mortals world. Next, she kidnaps Athena (that happens a lot to her...). So, the bronze saints must fight the Ghost Five: Maya of Sagitta (he look a lot like Tremy, the silver saint that put the gold arrow in Athena's chest in the Sanctuary arc), Orpheus of Lyra (this can be Benetnasch Mime clone... not related with Lyra Orpheus of the Hades arc), Khristós of the Southern Cross, Jan of Scutum, and Jäger of Orion. Then a lot of fights happen and blablabla. Animation: Like the TV series. This was made back in 87, so if you are used only to new stuff, you may think is old and primitive (or, in a more polite way, classic). If you started back in the 80/90, then is pretty good. Back then, it was f*cking awesome. Sound: The music's epic, as always. The voices... well, since you are reading the engrish version of this review, that means you aren't from Latin America or Spain. I assume that you are going to watch the japanese dub. It's pretty awesome, you may know the seiyūs from the Hades: Chapter Santuary (In Inferno and Elysion Toei change all the voices). Soooo, good voice acting. Verdict: Like Saint Seiya? If you do, watch the movie. It's more of the same: Saints bashing each others. It's only 45 min long, so it's not that big of a deal, but the movie is, in general, fine. -------- Muy bien, como es blasfemo que Saint Seiya no tenga las review correspondientes, acá estoy yo para arreglarlo! Los shonens suelen ser largos. Y en esos intervalos de tiempo, se hacen películas. En la mayoría de los casos, no muy brillantes. Si bien Saint Seiya no es la excepción, son entretenidas en general. La primera de todas: La Reencarnación de la diosa Ellis. Historia: Los santos de bronce (Ikki no) van de visita al orfanato donde creció Seiya. Ahí, además de Miho y los chicos (como Akira y Makoto, o como sea que se llamen), se encuentran a Elli, una joven que según parece trabaja ahí. Después, por necesidad argumental, cae un meteorito en el que esta la manzana de la Diosa de la discordia, Eris. No hay que ser Sherlock Holmes para adivinar que pasa: la manzana posee a Elli, y Eris renace en el mundo de los mortales. Acto seguido, secuestra a Athena (como no podía ser de otra forma). A partir de ahí, los caballeros de bronce (Ikki llega más tarde, como tampoco podía ser de otra forma) deberán pelear contra los Ghost Five: Maya de Flecha (que podría ser el primo de Tremy, el tipo que le encajo la flecha dorada a Athena en la saga del Santuario), Krakus de la Cruz del Sur, Yan del Escudo, Orfeo de Lira (este es casi el gemelo de Mime de Benetnasch; no confundir con el Orfeo de Lira de la saga de Hades) y Yaga de Orión. Después hay peleas y todo eso. Animación: La misma de la serie. Tengamos en cuenta que esto fue en el 87, por lo que si uno está acostumbrado a lo actual, por supuesto que Saint Seiya puede parecer primitivo, o al menos, “clásica”. Para los que arrancamos en los 90, la animación es muy buena, correcta, y todo eso. Sonido: La música, épica, como siempre. En cuanto a las voces, depende de la versión que viste: la versión española es correcta para los españoles, supongo. Pero el consenso americano general es que las voces de España apestan. Después, esta la versión remasterizada mexicana, en la que Jesús Barrero y compañía están presentes :D. O al menos, los caballeros de bronce, con la excepción de Shiryu (la vos de Shun puede sonar distinta, pero es el original... solo que con más años). Los actores de doblaje hacen un trabajo notable, y la calidad de sonido es muy buena. Veredicto: Te gusta Saint Seiya? Mira la película. Es más de los mismo, ni más, ni menos: Santos golpeándose unos a otros. Algunos pueden pensar que al ponerle 6 le estoy dando una calificación baja (o que no me gusto), pero como seis es Fine, es justo n_n. En 45 minutos no se puede hacer mucho más.
This is the first Saint Seiya movie & probably the best one out the original 4 feature films. Saint Seiya Evil God Eris is a short film with a good blend of fighting & animated visuals which should leave you wanting more. If' you're new to Saint Seiya, this a good exposure to begin the anime as it displays much of the series personal style, however the characters aren't as identifiable as the anime. All of the Saint Seiya movies have basically the same plot (much like the anime) being to rescue the Goddess Athena & defeat the villain & his minions. While the plot maybe repetitive & works smoothly in this film as it has a very fast pace & goes straight to the point while highlighting each character's signature techniques. Out of all the movies, this might have the most ambitious visuals due to various contrasts in color such as Eris blonde or blue hair when she stands nest to Athena who has purple hair. Much of the film plays with the color schemes making it a visual treat much like the anime series. The only real cons to the film are the fights ending very quickly and doesn't display much personality to the characters other than its shonen tropes of friendship, effort & victory. An okay feature to start the series as it doesn't spoil anything to the original storyline; where our bronze saints are more fleshed out with their personalities & commitments of being a saint. As for already established Saint Seiya fans, the animation quality is worth watching for a few times.
