Talk:Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac/@comment-9017724-20200204215606

Ok, I've watched most of the episodes already aired and I just have to speak of my mind about this. I understand the hate on it because the all "Shun is a girl" thing. But you can't possibly judge it because of that. I mean, the concept of the adaptation is pretty great, actually. The all prophecy thing makes more sense than having the saints believe Saori is not Athena. And also there's the fact this starts with a war between three factions that makes things more interesting: we have Saori and the bronze knights vs Santuary vs Guraad. Not to mention animation is actually pretty great and they were able to put many episodes into 12 quite effectively. Now, I'm not saying this remake is better than the original because I would be lying. Nothing can't beat the original. Also, I'm not saying having Shun as a girl is decent, because in my opinion they f***ed there. I mean, it's not I would not accept it, because I always hated that stupid rule about female saints having to hide their faces and kill or love the man that comes to see their face. But it's because Shun is a symbol to strong androgynous male and also because it made Ikki's interaction with Esmeralda quite weird. I mean, she looked exactly like Shun and, in the original series, we let it pass because Shun was his brother, but knowing in this new series Shun is a girl... Well, I supose you get the idea. Anyway, I don't let that mistake to ruin the beautiful story this remake tells and I believe you shouldn't do it too.
