A Great CG, but A bad Anime/Manga Adaptation
13 December 2014
Warning: Spoilers
**Spoiler Warning** Pros: Good CG. Neutral Opinion: The Cloth Box and Mask. Cons: 1) Poor Script: 90 min run time isn't enough to cover the entire arc, well that's forgivable, BUT there are unnecessary scene for about 10-20 mins, such as Deathmask singing(really hate this scene). 2) Wrong personality of the characters: Milo is woman while the real one in manga/anime is a man! Deathmask is eccentric and sadist, not a comedian! Seiya isn't that funny kind of guy, he is about spirit and friendship, and loyalty, not a funny character. Ikki isn't as cool as in the Manga/Anime. 3) Shaka didn't fight Ikki??? 4) Almost every battle get cut, it only show how the bronze saint meet with gold saint, and then goes to another scene, and when we back to the fighting, it only show the bronze saint execute his final attack, lame! 5) Why they change the characters face? I've played Saint Seiya game, 3D graphic one, and the characters face is identical with the Manga/Anime, but in this movie they all have different face, a cuter one, LAME! 6) They don't have that dramatic moment!!! When Hyoga desperately having to fight his own master(Aquarius Camus) and it turned out that his master actually teach him something.. 7) Saori with short hair?? 8) Changed Script: My beloved battle: Aphrodite vs Shuun is changed.. (Saga killed Aphrodite).. TERRIBLE STUPID LAME!!! There is also no Shura Vs Shiryu (and Shiryu managed to make Shura realize his mistake and Shura give him Excalibur at the last minute of his life). That battle against that Giant Statue is lame and unnecessary. And this movie is about Bronze Saints, but why are the Gold Saints taking the spotlight? 9) The final battle is mehhh. Overall, it's a failed Manga/Anime adaptation. What a disappointment.
