Saint Seiya!! The Lost Canvas!

Posted by Sam. No Comments

Heyo! It’s been awhile folks but this time I’m recommending a spin-off based on a classic manga! I’m sure we have all heard of Saint Seiya (Knights of the Zodiac)! The once popular 20+yr old manga inspired many of this generation’s most popular mangas such as “Bleach”!!

SaintSeiyaTheLostCanvasMeiouShinwa-front

Anyways Saint Seiya is mostly about Olympian Gods battling for the control of Earth with Athena (Goddess of Wisdom) as the guardian of Earth. She leads a human army called Saints based on the Constellations (including the Zodiac) and defends Earth against such Gods as Poseidon and her nemesis Hades.

The Lost Canvas is set 200years prior the canon storyline and it talks about how the lives of 3 childhood best friends changed forever as destiny took an unsuspected turn. Or rather, a “cliche” turn and 1 of them grew up to be the Pegasus Saint, the other became Goddess Athena and the last and purest soul of all was “hand picked” and possessed by Hades! So 2 childhood friends are forced to battle the 3rd one and it starts off from there!

Whats different between the original Seiya and this spin-off?! The graphics! The anime really sets the difference apart and showed us what 20 years of technology could do! The the battle scenes are just amazinglybeautiful lol! And Athena got way hotter! Hell, the Saints (All male Soldiers) are hot too lol! So yea watch the anime, it’s worth your while!!:D Especially if you are interested in Greek myths and legends and Constellations and what not!! (Even though a lot of references are  based on actual Greek God myths. But things like Athena vsing Hades is obviously fake:D)

Claymore

Posted by Dom. 5 Comments

Hey everyone, its Dom again!

Today’s review will be on a long time favourite, Claymore. Claymore is a dark fantasy manga set in a unnamed fictitious world inhabited by monsters called Yoma and humans. The story follows the character Clare, a claymore who is sent on missions to hunt these monsters down by an organisation shrouded in mystery.

Plot :

The plot of Claymore centres around Clare, the lowest ranking Claymore. Claymores are hired warriors who eliminates yomas. Though not officially called claymores by themselves, the people living in this world coined the name based on the large sword each warrior carries. To this date, a claymore has always been a female. Each claymore receives their orders from the Organhisation, which will lead Clare onto her journey unlike any other.
