Gasp não pode.
Daniel BayerHOST
Cavaleiros do Zodíaco.
João CarvalhoHOST
É.
Daniel BayerHOST
É série? Desenho é série? É considerado série, né? Tem temporadas, tem episódios.
PaulaGUEST
Yes
DawnHOST
... uh, that obviously was really a huge inspiration from, like, how big tokusatsu shows were getting, uh, the popularity of Saint Seiya-
PaulaGUEST
Mm-hmm
DawnHOST
... uh, which was, i- is still to this day inescapable.
DawnHOST
So, like, that was a huge, huge thing in Japan.
DawnHOST
So there was a lot of, like, you know, things where they were like, "Oh, can we make the next Saint Seiya? Can we make [laughs] can we make something that, like, you know, is that popular?" And, you know, Samurai Troopers was a product of that, obviously.
DawnHOST
Um, but the thing-
DawnHOST
thing-About, uh, Samurai Troopers AKA Ronin Warriors, um, is that, like, this is a series that I would argue is more beloved in, like, US fandom than Saint Seiya is because-
RamsesHOST
And welcome, everybody, to the Saint Seiya CosmoCast.
RamsesHOST
I am your host, Ramzes, and per usual, I have here Jackie.
RamsesHOST
Hey,
RamsesHOST
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
RamsesHOST
But, yeah, we actually had a pretty packed show this week.
RamsesHOST
Again, we're going to be continuing Rewise of Poseidon because, well, nothing's happened in the world of Saint Seiya.
RamsesHOST
Not yet, at least.
RamsesHOST
But so it's like, you know, hey, you know, we might as well we might as well continue on with the adventures of we were having fun with the adventures of Poseidon, you know, and his Sailor Scouts fighting against the Gundam Wing Boys.
Gerard FortuneHOST
But then I got, like, Dragon Ball.
Gerard FortuneHOST
I got the Saint Seiya gender swap.
Gerard FortuneHOST
Yeah, yeah, okay.
Gerard FortuneHOST
Saint Seiya show.
Gerard FortuneHOST
Prison School Live Action.
Gerard FortuneHOST
Yeah.
KyleHOST
He'd been doing it for almost a decade at that point.
KyleHOST
I think one of my favorite ones he does is the Saint Seiya opening.
KyleHOST
I think he also does a good version of the Devilman opening.
KyleHOST
And he does a great version of...
TomHOST
The toys were already on shelves.
TomHOST
So he took his inspiration from the Saint Seiya series in making the Gundam glow gold.
TomHOST
The gold-armored saint figures from that franchise had been a big hit with G's target audience.
TomHOST
Interestingly, he says that he was trying to avoid Domon looking too much like a Dragon Ball Super Saiyan.
DaveHOST
His score, one of the things he's best known for, is the anime film Blood, The Last Vampire, which was both nominated for the 2000 UK Awards music awards under the soundtrack category, and then also awarded top prize at the Japan Media Arts Festival in 2001 by the Agency for Cultural Affairs.
DaveHOST
His other credits include Sonic X, Dead Leaves, Tiger and Bunny, Be the Beginning, Dororo 2019, Go Go Loser Ranger, Cobra the Animations, Space Adventure Cobra, the 2008-2010 OVAs plus the TV series, and then Saint Seiya.
DaveHOST
He's also the composer for the gaming and anime series Rage of Bahamut Genesis and Shadowverse.
DaveHOST
And so his approach to the Akiba Maid War soundtrack, it's again, it leans into that two-faced nature of the character.
Oscar MontoyaHOST
Did I say that? Yeah.
Oscar MontoyaHOST
When it comes to an 80s Eurovision song, the direct correlation I always make is, will it fit in an anime opening theme? And to me, Terminal 3 fits right along with Fist of the North Star or Saint Seiya.
Oscar MontoyaHOST
So that gets an approval from me.
Oscar MontoyaHOST
Yep, I can dig it.
Dimitry PompéeHOST
I can dig it.
Dimitry PompéeHOST
Definitely Saint Seiya for sure.
Dimitry PompéeHOST
I
Mel HardyGUEST
would like to see a gem Fist of the North Star mashup video.
RamsesHOST
And welcome everybody to the Saint Seiya CosmoCast.
RamsesHOST
I am your host, Ramses, and with me per usual is Jackie.
JackieHOST
Hey everybody, how's it going?
8 MINS LATER
JackieHOST
Like, I probably should have done that.
JackieHOST
And I'm sorry.
RamsesHOST
No, and to be fair, this chapter kind of, like, it's one of those chapters that kind of, like, to your defense, it feels like not much is happening, but at the same time, too, like, you know, there's a lot of setup in typical Saint Seiya fashion.
RamsesHOST
So, like, there's a certain ceiling at a certain point, but, yeah, don't feel bad that there isn't really much, so...
RamsesHOST
But Bekas, would you like to say a few words about the
Gerard FortuneHOST
I remember now why I didn't write it.
Gerard FortuneHOST
Saint Seiya creator sues former manager and others for 2.8 billion yen, which is around $18 million.
Gerard FortuneHOST
That's what they are seeking in damages.
Gerard FortuneHOST
where funds got misappropriated.
