Huh, never heard of this band before. I'm gonna have to see their work before I make any judgements about this.
*listens to a few of their songs* Ahh, glad to see Freddie Mercury's reincarnation is going to tackle this. |

So I guess this is gonna be more “I Ran” cover and less metal version of “Pegasus Fantasy”.
I know it’s supposed to be a version of Pegasus Fantasy but still. |

This poor adaptation can bomb hard I don't care, making Shun a girl was a BIG UNFORGETABLE MISTAKE !

I'm cautiously optimistic with this new version. Truth be told, the original anime hasn't aged well. It's a great story to tell if you don't drag it that long.
Also, Shun being a girl is just the natural evolution of the character. Yes, I know spoiler[ he's the reincarnation of Hades, and that'd make Hades a girl]. But I think they may twist the known story a bit in order to surprise old fans. |

They should use I Ran as the end theme.

So at least the opening is going to be a new version of Pegasus Fantasy, that great. Though to be fair, I have a softspot for the original European Spanish opening (which I think it was a cover from the French version)

Yeah it isn't like you can watch or read the original works where this change doesn't exist. Instead of complaining just to complain. |

Hahahaha! After so many years of broken franchises due to feminism and people who care about social justice, ya still believe such a crap in here, a WESTERN "remake" of Saint Seiya? (I like how it autoamtically changes Shonen Jump Weekly to "people who care about social justice" - lol) Last edited by Enturax on Sun Jun 30, 2019 12:19 pm; edited 2 times in total |

Yeah, it isn't like you can give criticism it deserves like an actual fan should do. Instead of acting like a typical fanboy without taste who has forgotten why he/she liked the series in the 1st place. |

Can't wait.
Have only ever seen the limited amount that made it onto Cartoon Network, and as such don't remember a ton, so I'm coming in pretty fresh and as such I'm actually glad this time the show will actually have a prominent female fighter character in the main cast. |

That's the thing, though. Unless the new show completely changes Shun's character, she won't really be a "prominent" fighter, because Shun is supposed to be a pure-hearted pacifist. OG Shun only fought when there was truly no other option, other than death, and even then he only truly went full-strength on literally two or three occasions in the entire original story, because he believed that much in not killing others. That's where making Shun into a girl feels lazy, because it seems like they're just going with "effeminate & non-violent = woman". Of course, they could be changing that aspect of Shun, but then why not simply make a more combat-oriented character the girl, like Shun's brother, Phoenix Ikki? |
